I need a bit of help with buying an external GPU enclosure. I'm all new to this.
I own a 13" MacBook Pro (Early 2013), the specs are dual core i7 3.0GHz, 8GB DDR3, and no discrete GPU (so Intel HD 4000), it also has two thunderbolt ports, up to 10 gbps. I'm running Windows 10 with bootcamp.
I'm trying to use my GTX 680 with it but I have no idea which enclosure would work with my setup. I'm not trying to get 100% efficiency, I just want to be able to play a few games on it. Thanks for reading, and don't judge me for using a Mac, it's my brother's and I don't have money to buy a proper laptop.

What is this machine I found?

Let's talk about Soviet design. Do you like it? It looks "brutalist" as the latest buzzword is. Would flat design have succeeded in the Soviet world?

I'm starting my computer science course tomorrow. Anyone have tips on making it through? I was a pretty shitty student in highschool but cs interests me a lot.
I came to know some people who're starting cs as well but they're all csgo fagits who've never used linux and don't care about being part of the botnet.

Hi /g/,
A few years ago I wrote VSTs, mainly eqs with fancy little options and nobody really noticed the shit for years on github.
I also wrote a trading bot and a soundcloud taste analysis tool, as well as a lot of useless stuff.
Last Friday I received an email from a HR responsible at a local company who makes VSTs, the email said:
>Hi Anon,
>I'm Stacy Stacy, responsible for technical recruiting at XXX. We build professional audio software used on hit records made by world-renowned mixing engineers.
>I was taking a look at your GitHub and was impressed with your experience in C++, we feel like you could be a perfect fit with our team & product. If you think this sounds interesting we'd love to find a few minutes to chat soon—is there a good time for a quick skype call in the next couple days?
>Thanks,
>Stacy Stacy
>XXX - www.xxx.com
To which I replied by the end of day by inviting them to call me on Monday.
This is kind of my dream job and would allow me to get my hands on some badass projects.
But here's the problem, I have no fuckin degree, I am a poor student who left his uni behind to work in restaurants, and who nows live off unemployement welfare while waiting to get back to his studies.
What would you suggest to maximise the chances of me being hired ? Never had an IT interview in my life. I want this job so bad.
I'm just wondering how can I tell my story to come up as a must-have employee ??
Anyone experienced with that ?

The iPad Pro with iOS 11 has revolutionised tablet PCs. It's now a serious competitor to laptops, depending on what your purposes are. And it comes with apples A10 processor making it more powerful than most laptops and all other tablets.

At this point a started everything over thinking there might be some odd luck virus that attacks it right away when it connects to the internet. I know, neurotic, but I was baffled and confused.
>go thru that shit all over again
>this time be very careful not to connect to internet
>when I finally do and start installing VLC etc.:
The same fucking thing
But this is not all kids.

>All in one desktop
>extremely quiet

>5k display, more or less unmatched in any PC for a similar price range
>MacOS
>$1799

Sure its pricey but its a premium product and you get what you pay for.
