I'm looking to get a new SSD. Who are the good manufactures nowadays? Is it still just Samsung and Kingston or are there some new companies making good shit? Also is black friday and cyber monday still the best time to get deals on electronics?
>>
in outlook, how do i make it so all mail from one sender gets sent to the trash instead of my inbox? my college sends uninteresting news bulletins twice a day and there's no way to unsubscribe.

It's a meme. The pads are shallow and awful, there's a fucking half ball in the driver touching your ear, cord is too short, move the headband an inch on your head and one of the cups flips over 3 times. They sound like shit too.
Get these instead.

Agreed. Only thing it has going for it is Cinnamon.
Honestly, the Mint guys should just pack it in and work on Cinnamon full-time.

Why can't autists and normies get along?
>>
>>56691768
I'm a Windows user and sometimes use Linux for compiling my android OS (try doing that on Windows...)
I get along fine with Linux users. It's just the mactards that I couldn't get tired of hitting with an iron pan

Because autism is overflowing from both sides. People with no mental disabilities can use both OS's efficiently.

what file host(s) do you use /g/? if you don't use one of the more popular options, why? if you use a server you own, why and who hosts it?
personally I use the following:
images - imgur
text - pastebin
small generic files - pomf.cat
large generic files - mega
i use imgur because I already have an account there and they have an easy interface to manage your previously uploaded images.
i use pastebin for no real reason, syntax highlighting and custom lifetime is nice though.
pomf.cat is because some anon used it and i needed something to direct link generic files.
mega is the best free option i know of with large filesize limits and decent speeds.

This is interesting

>>56691005
My logic when getting OP pic was that whoever follows the law shall be safe.
So if a doctor is crossing at red light and a dog is crossing at green light, then doctor dies. It also kills the driver to save a law abiding citizen because its definitely not citizens fault that car had brake problems.
When options are more people crossing at green light and less people are crossing at green light, then it goes for less people. If both sides are equal amount of humans(gender, age, fitness, social worth etc doesnt matter) then the car doesnt swerve.
>>
>>56691094
I did the same thing except in the instances where animals can be killed instead of humans, I preferred to take the lives of animals as opposed to humans, even if the dogs were legally crossing (I'm not sure where this scenario would apply in real life though). I didn't have any gender preference or fitness preference.

Just buy one, faggot. It's $300. Are you really going to wait for eight months and not enjoy playing games for that time over $300? You might be dead before the next generation of cards arrive.

Just find a MSRP 1070.

/tpg/ Thinkpad General
IRC: #/tpg/ on irc.rizon.net
Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).
----
If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W/P SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™
Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", ultraportable
----
Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap.
>Excellent keyboards - tactile feel and quiet.
>Great durability: chassis uses a magnesium rollcage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels.
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing in the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

Bought a T420S on Friday. Paid with Bitcoin. Should be arriving in a couple of days. I'm pretty excited for that.
>>
So the best to get is the T460 rite?
How does it hol up against the Yoga710, X360 13T..
>>
I found a 1600x900 T420 in pretty mediocre condition for $140. Is it worth it even if I have to replace some parts?
