That way you can build a tiny Mini-ITX desktop like pic related. That's what I'm doing anyway.

is most of /g/ just a bunch of brainless dipshit consumer whores anymore?
if you have rampant stability issues on any home system whether you're running Windows, OS X or a mainstream GNU/Linux you really just do not know how to operate a computer 99% of the time

>being pointlessly obsessed with the bleeding edge
you probably tell yourself it's about "security" but it's 99% certain nobody gives a fuck about your system as long as it's behind a firewall and doesn't use default login credentials

Hi, I'm CIA. We're back-tracing your IP right now. Be ready to get raided by the cyberpolice. Consequences will never be the same.
Best computing setup:
Tablet PC (iPad pro) for mobile use and casual browsing
Desktop PC (iMac) for home use and heavier usage.
Prove me wrong.
phones are better than ipads
Smartphone - Can do anything a ipad can
Laptop, optimally x220 - If you're gonna need it, can do what you need and can remote to your home if you need to
Desktop PC (custom) - Outperforms imac twice while being half the price, customizable and much more modular
Anybody here an audio fag?
Is anyone on /g/ an audiofile?
>>62480027
I personally think that it's deprecated, but I still bought my favorite albums on it. It feels just nice, opposed to having everything stored digitally
>>62480027
There's an argument to be had for LPs when we're talking pre-digital recordings. Mostly due to mastering decisions and the wear-and-tear of the original masters from having been pressed so much. There's very little point on grabbing LPs on modern recordings, though, as most of them are going to be digital masters pressed to analog anyway and rarely sound significantly different. Sometimes they put actual effort into an LP pressing, but not often. They'll always hold novelty for their yuuge artwork, though.
Got around 200 records, mostly EPs
Not an audiophile though
Anyone else a left handed mouse user here? I just brought a mouse and Im using it left handed, swapped the buttons too. But what Im wondering is, is it better doing it this way or buying a dedicated left handed mouse? It doesnt feel awkward to use but when i swap the buttons they dont feel as responsive. Is this normal or will i adjust to it as time goes along?
>>62479981
You know, I've never thought about left handed people when it comes to trackball mouse. I guess if you get one with the trackball in the middle its not so bad, but some of them still have the special buttons on the side or something.
BTW I have that exact mouse, but right handed, it's pretty good. I have had it for over 3-4 years, no problems, except it goes through batteries faster than other wireless mice.
I'm left handed but i have no problem using a mouse with my right hand. Anyway, if you really want a left handed mouse i'm sure there's a few options out there. I think razer made some left handed mice.
>>62480980
Thats the main reason im asking. I just brought a regular cheap usb mouse, i didnt want to worry about batteries and all that shit. Ive tried searching online for left handed mouses and honesty. most of them look like shit. Plus the majority are wireless and i dont want a wireless one
>>62481026
Ive always used the mouse right handed but decided to use it with my left hand. it feels much more natural for some reason. But I do eventually want a better mouse with more buttons, but i dont want to be forced to use it right handed
Now what?
