Whats the most secure own mail hosting?
I dont trust any "secure" email companies, their security is shit.
>>56428356
>their security is shit.
Elaborate.
You have no use of higher security than fucking Gmail. You're not as important as you think.
>>56428356
OpenBSD with sendmail?
would 'low-poly' provide any advantage in performance if you were to make a game with models created in such configuration?
Lmao can't let you do that Star Fox
>>56428300
After pixels die down this will be the next "artistic" indie game design.
Low poly A E S T H E T I C.
And yes OP... it would. But what kind of gem could take advantage of that? Something with a huge world?
possibly, depends on how well-optimised the engine was.
but then you'd probably end up bumping it right the fuck back up for things like shaders, lighting and anti-aliasing.

Got ubuntu installed and want to go back to windows 10, what do /g/?
>>56428260
Kill Yourself
>>56428260
Allow Develop Mode on Configuration and Install Ubuntu Bash on Windows. You need to allow that.
Windows 10 Anniversary has this option.
You can use apt-get, wget, sudo, vi, etc. on bash and be happy.
>>56428260
Install Gentoo
Can someone explain to what this thing is, as I'm not deep in to the fields of technology. I made 800k on kickstarter so it must be something special.
>Is it a typical motherboard?
>what case is used to be safe?
>does it need a graphics card?
>Is RAM included?
>What about storage?
Sorry if the answer is obvious but I am a noob in technology.
>>56428248
It's a mini computer.
Literally just a RPI style board with as much hardware as their 36w power supply allows. It's a lousy product as the really good one is $259, which means it's competing against home built PCs that are obviously more powerful.
>>56428248
>A motherboard as cheap as $89!!!!!!!!!
our species's technological advances transcend all reason
>>56430860
Excuse u it's a motherboard+RAM+mediocre CPU
WHAT A DEAL
Also it's small and people dig that
I just tried to RMA a WD Blue 1TB drive I purchased back in June and the website told me that I couldn't do that because it is an OEM drive. The website I purchased it from (outletpc) said it had a 2 year warranty.
This is BULLSHIT! Is there anything I can do /g/? Or am I out $54 dollars because of this piece of shit drive?
kek my WD external drive died yesterday too >>56416895
>>56428245
Return it to the place you bought it you fucking dong.
>>56428386
I can't they have a 30 day return policy.
Hey /g/, I'm going to be taking a flight soon and was looking to bring my desktop with me. What is the best means of precaution when taking it on the plane.
>>56428205
mail it by land to the place your going. Take the graphics card and maybe the heatsink out and keep it with you. as a carryon. If youre not a nigger or saudi they won't question it maybe.
>>56428205
>>56428293
Brought a desktop in my luggage many times, carry on is preferrable, but if not, make sure to take all devices out of PCIe slots and be sure to pack a lot of soft things around your cabinet.
>>56428205
Take the HDD out, and wrap it with clothes / something soft that will protect it against bumps etcetera. The laptop itself, put a new HDD in and a bait Windows setup, so you won't have any problems with security checking your computer and losing your data if it gets stolen. Carry a external drive caddy if you want to use your HDD in plane (boot from it, work on it etcetera) but be careful not to get it out of your bag (might get stolen)

I recently bought a new SSD as well as a Windows 10 installation disc.
I already have Windows 7 installed on my primary SSD and I don't want to upgrade both drives.
Can I simply unplug my W7 SSD before I install W10 onto the other drive? Then I'll be able to choose in the future what drive boots up which OS at the bios screen? I've heard rumors of OS confusion.
I haven't tried this but in theory it should work. But wait for confirmation here before proceeding.
>>56428095
>buying windows
>>56428095
You don't need to remove the Windows 7 SSD you can install 10 onto the new drive, Windows has its own boot manager that will pop up and ask which you wish to boot.

Why are American network providers so retarded? You fags can't even update your phone until the carrier has approved the update, meanwhile here in aus I get my updates as soon as the device manufacturer releases it.
Also why are American signal bands so out of wack with the rest of the world?

This has never been a problem for iPhone owners.
Lagdroid users are triple-cucked by Jewgle, Samshit, and carriers.
My Nexus on the Fi network gets constant updates.
>>56428031
Is this why iPhone is more popular in the states than anywhere else?
Why the fuck are the LEDs in my keyboard dying like flies recently
>>56427816
Why do you even have LEDs in your keyboard? Do you have to look down on your keyboard when typing? Pussy.
i'm going to take a wild guess and say you got some semen on the keyboard

Android has a lot of custom kernels, but what about Linux? What custom Linux kernels are out there? Do you use any of them?
>>56427783
>What custom Linux kernels are out there?
Well, there's Android.
>inb4 Android is not a custom Linux kernel
Yes, it is.
why would I?
>>56427805
I guess that's true, but I was thinking more of custom kernels that people modify their Linux with.
Like that one that was supposed to make Linux more compatible with windows programs? What was it called?

Windows users are retarded OP. They can't deal with change because 90% of them barely know how to install another browser.
When are we gonna get another smartphone with a landscape keyboard?
You know how many people with big ass phones have started using flip covers? Why can't they just make a Surface-esque keyboard flip cover (with the necessary modifications to make it comfortable for thumb-typing)? Is there simply no demand for it?
