"Free software" isn't viable because in the real world people need to put food on the table
People don't use Loonix desktop because it's shit and impractical, not because they're "tricked" by evil moustache-twirling M$

All you need to do is change the real world to make it viable, it's simple.
Ive programmed for 3 different companies, used linux for each and regularly use free open source software

Feels like shit. I was in the beta and voiced several concerns and bugs, and it looks like none have been fixed.
>removal of the standard-for-nearly-a-decade "slide to unlock"
I still don't understand this, even after using the ios10 beta and final master for several weeks, the idea doesn't make sense. Is it just removal for removal's sake so apple can seem courageous?
Imagine there are a few ways to unlock your phone.
>hit the wake/sleep, then slide to unlock
>hit the home button, then slide to unlock
>get a notification, slide to unlock
And now we have
>hit the wake/sleep button, hit the home button
>hit the home button, hit the home button again
>get a notification, either slide to go to that app or just hit the home button
Not only did Apple throw away a decade's worth of muscle memory for folks, they're now increasing the amount of times the home button must be tapped by a large margin. Good luck getting your home button replaced when it suddenly becomes unresponsive because you hit it 200 times a day.
All of this wouldn't be so bad if the phone actually unlocked properly when you swipe on a notification. As is, about 80% of the time it just swipes left onto that stupid ass dashboard abortion that's now on the left on the lock screen. And god forbid you try to swipe back to the right to get to your notifications, it'll just slide right on past to the camera app. And good luck swiping back. The only way you're getting out of there is-you guessed it-another tap of the home button.
Good job, Apple :^)

I have 2 ISO windows 7 downloaded from a while back. Never used them or installed them. I need to reinstall windows 7 on one of my comps but have no idea if these iso's are legit or not.
Whats the most simple way that you guys vouch for that works to check if its a legit iso and not some phony copy?
Just do it faggot!
Do you need me to hold your hand?

I would if i could remember where i got them from. Otherwise fuck that.

It's about time we abandon the ICE and cages that weigh multiple tons for individual transportation.
So I made a thread an hour ago or so.
I asked if the 1060 STRIX is good.
Well, I went on to buy the card, but then I saw the size of it. It's 30cm. The current 780 is 28cm or so, and it barely fits, it's almost reaching the HDD cage.
So which brand should I buy?
The candidates:
- EVGA
- Gainward
- GIGABYTE
- Inno3D
- Palit
- PNY
- ZOTAC
I had a Gigabyte (7870), the windforce fans were fucking loud. So I am not to keen on that one. MSI usually makes shit products, so that's why I would like to avoid that too.
Had a ZOTAC, that card performed mighty fine, but I see them on these "AVOID" lists, don't know how true are those.
(Both OC and non OC ASUS cards are this McFuckHuge.)
> inb4 buy a new case
That would just up my upgrade by 30% or so.
> inb4 RX480
Hell I would not mind, but ShadowPlay is really comfy, Gameworks/Physx looks nice, so yeah, I like those. DX12/Vulkan games are also just coming out. And price wise, it's kinda the same, so yeah. If it would be, 200$ cheaper, heck I would pick that... BUT I am open to ideas.

kek its funny
you paid for a 400 card that was defected
people sue nvidia for it
they get only 30 back
meanwhile nvidia invented FE cards just to counteract the losses of this settlement
and people still buy cards from them

I do. I want my $30, dumb shill.
Is /g/ the most hypocritical board on 4chan or do we just have a vocal minority?
There is a lot of pro GNU/Linux threads and a lot of pro AMD threads (GPU or CPU).
However, whenever there is a speccy, battlestation, desktop, guts, thread etc. everyone is running Windows 10 with Intel CPUs and Nvidia GPUs.
>pic semi-related
>/g/ is one person
Seriously, go fuck yourself.
All of the threads you visit are cancerous cesspools of little interest to anyone other than /v/.
Vocal minority.
There's a reason why Windows is still dominant on this board because most people here are normies or normies in denial.
>whenever there is a speccy, battlestation, desktop, guts, thread etc. everyone is running Windows 10 with Intel CPUs and Nvidia GPUs
Maybe because Speccy isn't available for GNU/Linux?

To be completly honest Smartphones aren't really phones anymore.
They are just RISC computers with a big screen that have access to the phone grid.

Thinking of buying a new monitor.
It shouldn't be above 4ms and needs to have an IPS display.
Currently can't decide between the MG24UQ and the MG279Q from Asus.
I'm running AMD and will continue to do so, so G-Sync isn't needed.
Former is 4K and 24" while the other one is 27" 1440p, 144Hz.
The Free-Sync range on the latter is limited to 95Hz but can be increased to full 144Hz by editing the monitor driver, so that isn't really a concern.
Main problem is that you will almost certainly not get a good MG279Q on the first (even second or third) try since they seem to have quite shitty quality control and a lot of them suffer from excessive backlight bleeding.
It's mainly for movies and simply doing shit on the computer. And I do play Overwatch almost every day at the evening a bit.
Which one would you guys suggest?
i'd recommend the BenQ XL2730Z. it's 1440p, 144hz with freesync. great monitor.
>>56582874
That one is sadly TN.
>>56582847
>4K and 24"
I considered getting a 4k but apparently many programs just shit themselves when you upscale them, and on anything below like 30" or more, you HAVE to upscale because everything will be tiny otherwise.
I wonder why the news is suddenly freaking out over Samsung explosions when it can happen to just about any phone

Because it generally can't without serious damage to the batttery

did apple recall 2 million iphones because of battery issues?
Hi /g/
I'm trying to set up a decent sound system off my computer, with some affordable speakers.This is for music, as opposed to gaming or watching films.
My difficulty is deciding what sound card or external DAC to go for. Obviously, I want to buy a card / DAC that is neither inadequate nor excessive, with respect to the speakers I plan to use.
Among the speakers I am considering are the following:
Crative Gigaworks T40 Series II ~ $ 100
Wharfedale DS-1 ~ $ 100
Kef egg speakers ~ $ 450
Sony Srs-X9 ~ $ 500
Those last two options are kinda theoretical, but they caught my eye.
The DACs + sound cards I've seen recommended are FiiO E10K, Terratec SoundSystem Aureon 7.1 and Asustek Xonar DX/XD PCI-E
But I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm worried I'll dish out on something that some $ 100 speakers won't justify.
I'm poor as shit but I want to treat myself to a semi decent sound system.
Please excuse my English and technological illiteracy.
Any and all help from you guys is appreciated!
My dell laptop has decent audio, shit speakers but the output is clean to headphone or the speaker block. most people don't need an audio interface or sound card.
My PC has an incredibly bad insulated audio. So i got a cheap 50$ USB headset
>>56582824
right.
would you personally advise against replacing the sound card / getting an external DAC, unless I chose to get more fancy (like $ 200 +) speakers?
my current sound card is 'nvidia high definition audio'. or am I reading the driver name and not the physical device itself? I cannot tell..!
thank you
I'm using Windows 7
I got an .iso file but I uninstalled Daemon Tools Lite a while ago because it was freaking out my antivirus
My question is: should I download DTL again? or is there a better alternative?
>>56582616
DTL is perfectly fine as software and your pirated isos with hidden trojans and keyloggers are probably whats freaking your antivirus out
so yes you should
Windows has a built in mounter
