Windows is a piece of dog shit I only keep around to play games. If all Windows games suddenly worked on Linux tomorrow I wouldn't hesitate to switch.
At least Macs support file systems from other OS's goddamn.

you may get lucky and get a starter position but you wont be able to climb up the ranks easily.
/g/ will tell you that you dont need a degree. search for job openings in your area and see how many require a degree.

Yes, I have degree in math and I got better offers than the CS guys.

Well I did. Having completely no formal education whatsoever (besides HS of course). So, I guess if I could, anyone else can do it too, pretty much.

What is technology in the future going to be like? I don't want wild guesses or fantasies, preferable if you have some reliable sources to back yourself up. What's currently being researched?

Firefox lets you disable what you want for privacy. chrome and edge dont. Firefox is not losing extension support. it is becoming faster and more secure. Its still in the early phase and will only get better with new api's.

If anything, it makes it easier to pinpoint who to avoid. If it matters what phone you have to someone, they're most likely going to have other idiotic and arbitrary standards.
Save yourself the hassle, do as you fucking please and the true friends will come naturally.

Intel, being a jew company, releases the minimum possible performance gain they can get away with while stifling competition like AMD to help maintain its monopoly.
Some of the faster chips you pay more for are the exact CPU as the slower ones but set to run at a faster clock speed.
>>
>>62026229
sure it only happens once in a decade for intel because nobody kicks them in the ass that often to make them start moving
>>
They meant that they don't want you to buy any AMD chips now, and later when the benches show lackluster results it doesn't matter because they got what they wanted.
Name a shittier piece of software. I'll wait.

Both of these are 4 cores
but this one have 4 threads 2.8 GHz https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i5-2300+%40+2.80GHz
and this one have 8 threads 2.66 GHzhttps://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i7-920+%40+2.67GHz
Which one would you choose?
(For normal tasks, like web browsing, gaming, servers for games/webserver with no more than 100 clients connected at one time)
ps I actually am confused, don't know much about CPUs.
Thanks for help /g/uys!

Intel just unveiled a 16-core CPU for $499.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/11720/more-denverton-noise-gigabytes-ma10st0-features-unannounced-16core-c3958
Threadripper is absolutely finished now, it was top-dog for, how long? A week at best? This is pretty embarrassing for AMD.

It's only useful for cold storage. Threadripper is in a totally different league you stupid schmuck.

Intel atoms have 1/4th the IPC of ryzen processors you cum drizzle. This 16-core denverton SoC can't even match an R3 1200 multi-core let alone single-core performance.

>no ads
>basic IMAP/SMTP support (unlike ProtonMail), and decent webmail GUI
inb4 based in US. I'm assuming that my emails will be collected no matter what. I just don't want them scanned for ads.
Alternatives:
>ProtonMail (running for just 4 years, mentioned before, no IMAP support b/c it's ALLEGEDLY e2e)
>Posteo (ugly website imo, running for 8 years, shitty domain name to say verbally to English-speakers)
Am I missing something?
