Why do YOU care about privacy if you truly have nothing to hide?
You do have something to hide don't you?

Do you have any siblings? How Tech literate or illiterate are they?
How about your parents?
What pc/OS are they using? Do they even have a pc?
Siblings? They know just enough to be dangerous to themselves.
Parents? Barely literate.

>Mom
Knows almost nothing. Is lucky to barely be able to manage Internet banking and word processing. Everything else I have to do for her. Uses Win7, refuses to even touch Linux, because "I don't wanna stress myself with anything new". Her laptop is some 2011 Lenovo model kept up and running by me for her.
>Dad
Won't so much as touch computers, and knows absolutely nothing about them. Very old school.
>Sis
Knows basics. Knows how Internet banking and Internet in general work, can do software installations/removals. Basic shit like that. Uses her laptop for games and Facebook mostly. Still needs my help if something breaks, be it hardware or software. Win7 user, because I have warned her about the dangers of Win10. Doesn't understand Linux.
>Bro
Formally qualified, has studied information technology, and could work as a sysadmin for a server farm for example. But currently is not working in any IT-related field, because nobody's hiring in my area. Quite competent, knows his way around shit. Me and him are THE go to guys when mom and sis manage to break shit.
mum: despite using a pc at work for many, many years, knows only how to operate work software, outside of that she's only familiar with the power button
dad: can turn it on and play stealth shooters / flight simulators
sister: plays games like the sims, uses msn and social websites, can use a computer at normalfag level
i'm the only one in my family with an interest in computers

Nothing worth investigating here folks.

I say it's more like building IKEA furniture. Sometimes there's some minor hiccups, but usually you get it "good enough".

get the fuck off /g/
>>56784918
Im afraid you did my friend. Please dont use toxic language like poo in loo. It is true however that AMD is a evil company who does this to their customers. You should consider a new GTX 1060 my friend.
>>56784934
I tried, still was running hot as fuck
Not if you're not buying one.
Doesn't matter in the goddamn slightest.
Nah probably not, idk. I just dont like iOS, or the no Aux jack(incoming durrrr whut, typical scamsung user)
>>56784461
Durrrr what a typical scamsung user.

If you think that food makes people less capable of paying attention, and you aren't able to provide evidence for this at all, then you are just afraid of things being different.

>goyworks
>lies to their customers
>slowly gimps their cards over time
Why must you support this shitty company?
>>56783829
Because i like it
>>56783829
But AMD has proprietary software too, no equivalent to shadowplay, and better drivers.
Also when did they lie to their customers?
>inb4 3.5
it has been proven to be able to access and use all 4GB on board vram.

>it has been proven to be able to access and use all 4GB on board vram.
Yes, lets use that extra vram that will effectively reduce our framerate to unplayable levels. Shill some more.
What's your preferred Linux distro and why did you choose it
Gentoo. Install Gentoo.
Debian. It's stable and change scares me
Memes aside, gentoo. It gives me much more control over how my computer runs, which is important since it's older. Everything worked out of the box for me too which is perfect.
A Google Chromium variant for removing Google integration and enhancing privacy, control, and transparency
