just get a 480 or 1060 6gb, the 1070 is only about 20% better for twice the price

>>56471335
Are you on 1440p? Cause a 1060 can max practically anything at 1080p

Get Unity if you are a hipster with too much money.
Get Unreal Engine if you want professional software and don't want to think long term.
Get CryEngine if you are brave.

Go RPGMaker/GameMaker/custom engine if you are an indie shitter.

this

it depends on what kind of game/quality you're aiming at, if it's going to be shit don't even bother trying to sell it because you'll perpetuate the "leenox gaymess s0xxorz"

i'd like a pair with a removable cable, thanks for any help

Koss portapro + HD414 earpads

Thinkpad T series (normal sized laptops) or X series (small, very portable)
HP elitebooks
Dell latitudes

Everything else is shit quality-wise

X260
Battery life on it will last longer than you

I'm lazy to make a thread so can someone recommend a good laptop literally just for surfing the web and Microsoft Office? I can only spend up to $400 for this. I was thinking of getting an Asus but I wasn't sure.

I'm trying to install FreeBSD but running into errors, can I ask some questions here?

First, dd won't burn the image properly.
I downloaded this image
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/i386/ISO-IMAGES/10.3/FreeBSD-10.3-RELEASE-i386-memstick.img
And tried

dd if=FreeBSD-10.3-RELEASE-i386-memstick.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1M conv=sync

Where sdb was a couple different mSD cards, SD, and tried with a flash drive but my computer won't boot when I select any of them as boot device. One weird thing is that lsblk shows just /dev/sdb without a /dev/sdb1 installer partition after running dd. Tried without bs=1M and without conv=sync, no luck.

I'm the guy from last night who was trying to install TrueOS.

It keeps failing to boot with a mountroot error of 2, 5, or 19
What might be the problem?

If I can't figure it out, I might try a straight FreeBSD install and then just add the other stuff like X and XFCE and the apps I need.

But, before I rewrite my fricking SD card a 4th time, I wanna see if anyone might have a solution.

I don't have it trying to run atm, but basically it says Solaris fails to mount on the zfs:tank/dev/initial or something like that?
and then it returns the error I mentioned above. I tried remounting it, but it doesn't seem to recognize anything.
>Also, why the fuck does TrueOS have boot material from Oracle/Solaris, if its based system is FreeBSD?

>>56474183
or I think it was zfs:tank/ROOT/INITIAL, actually...

something along those lines, though

I just want one so my fiancee and I can send each other our heartbeats

This is called harassment and/or unsolicited marketing depending on what country you're in

Ignoring for the moment the various technical problems with systemd, I have my suspicions that its provenance and scope are cause for alarm.
Systemd comes from Red Hat. Red Hat, in the Linux world, is the company with the largest ties to the US government and the various state security organizations around the world--including NSA. The US government (DoD) is Red Hat's number one customer. Red Hat also happens to be Lennart Poettering's employer.
The Linux kernel, I believe, is clean. As long as Linus lives, you're not going to subvert the kernel. Let's just assume that is true for the sake of argument. If you can't get into the kernel, what is your next option? You need something low level (PID 1?), ubiquitous, and vast in scope and complexity.
This describes systemd perfectly. It was almost like it was designed to touch as much of a Linux system as possible. It has hooks into some many different subsystems and APIs that it's almost impossible to build a modern distro with current software without pulling in systemd as a dependency. This happened almost overnight, and I think there are malicious forces at work here.
We must remember Heart Bleed. Heart Bleed appeared to be an innocent mistake, and it was a tiny typo in one line of a C program. If it's possible to do that much damage with a tiny little error, imagine when you have an attack surface as wide as systemd, written in a language like C that is almost designed to produce security holes when not written absolutely perfectly--and humans are not absolutely perfect programmers.
Systemd is dangerous. It's too big to be audited as quickly as its developed. It's complexity adds as much attack surface to a Linux system as the kernel itself. We can't get away from these facts. Shitfighting about init systems is a waste of our time. Sytemd is horrible because of where it comes from and how complex it is. Backdoors will be hidden in it.

>>56470437
What would they have to gain from a backdoor that would eventually be audited, though?

>>56470437
Since when did the distaste for systemd boil down to security? I thought it was just autistic retards shitting on it for being new. Any complex piece of code will have flaws.
