Can tech be used to impress girls anymore?
My prototype 3110 did the trick back in the day
I am sure you can "impress" a few girls with a stun gun or taser.
Sure it isn't pretty but it gets the job done.

If tattoos and criminal records are tech, yes.
Let's have a shill-free /g/-approved discussion on build quality. Post:
>Current brand
>1 positive thing about your device
>1 negative thing about your device
>Optional: Your personal top-tier/ok-tier/shit-tier list of brands based on your current understanding and opinion.

Fuck off

Mean.

>shill-free
>apple first
>mozilla adds FLAC support decades after chrome does it
>THIS IS THE FUTURE OF HIGH QUALITY AUDIO
Unless you can pass an ABX test (tell the difference) between 320kbps MP3, 192kbps Opus and lossless, post the log here, and you upload the files files that you tested (the FLAC, MP3 and Opus files) you're full of shit.
More importantly: What do you think that happened when VP9 was introduced? Did they raise the quality by keeping the same bitrate, or did they lower the bitrate to keep the same quality?

VP9 video now lags on baytrail atoms
well played, israel, well played.
I should've known, bait rail
What is with you MP3 shills? Are you proud of inconsistency in sound?
You don't use FLAC for audio quality alone, you use it because you know for a fucking fact it sounds 100% like intended.
Lets see your .log for your MP3 rips that ensure 100% accuracy in rips.
even Internet Explorer has FLAC support
How do you move profile from dead PC to new PC?
Its not for me, I am using firefox
but I need it cause I often deal with peoples dead PC
plus I install fresh windows on PCs and it would save me time
using powershell to silently install chrome and to do basic settigns like ublock origin
If you juts copy
>%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data
folder then it wont work, chrome tells you that settings were tampered with and defaults are being used.
>>56407019
>Chrome
>Windows
kek
>>56407074
i am on arch here
using firefox because vertical tabs
but nice shitposting loser
I cant image life of someone who goes around posting empty drivel like that
>>56407019
I had the same problem. Use the sync feature.
What would you have done differently, sysadmin?

>>56407006
fuck off you tool
>>56407006
Nothing. It's UNCLASS.
>>56407020
There must be a better way. Nothing? Removing key words and emailing documents because hey, that's how you can get around document classifications
how the hell i hide all apps section expanded when i press the start button? i want to show like before only the file explorer,settings,shutdown,etc buttons and all apps was a button under them if i remember.
Upgrade to Windows 7
>>56406998
google it you fucking faggot
>>56406998
Can't you just click on the right edge and drag it left to minimize it? I did that when I used windows 10, but that was when it barely came out.
Planning out a new pc build. I got help from a friend, but want to ask the /g/ experts. Just a little info about the build parameters I told him.
I want to game at 1440. I want it to be low maintenance (hints his suggested air-cool over water-cooled system) and I wanted to drop $1500-2k on it.
Pic related.
>>56406902
I'm about to go to check-out with this cart, but wanted to run it by you guys first. The first build my friend sent me had a DDR4 mobo and DDR3 ram. XD. Thought I'd get a 2nd opinion before pulling the trigger.
>low maintenance
>doesnt get liquid cooling
Unless you want to deal with overheating you might want to get liquid cooling. Also, what's your monitor looking like?
>>56406902
CPU, RAM, HDD, Motherboard are all overkill. You can drop down to something cheaper and use the extra money on a 1080 instead, or just keep the extra money. 1070 is more than enough for 1440/60hz
i5 is fine for gaming, get the cheapest DDR4 since they all do the same thing. WD black isn't worth the money if you already have an SSD, get a blue.
You probably wont notice Samsung vs Sandisk SSD but you can save some more money there. "Gaming" motherboards aren't worth the money, get a cheaper Z170.

for those of you in IT, how difficult was it to get your first/current job? i have no experience and want to get my A+ cert but im not sure if itll be enough to get my foot in the door
Pretty easy. It was a co-op through my college.
>3rd year CS
>classmate has a job
>looking for summer job
>apply
>get hired
pretty easy
>>56406844
College is a meme. I worked my way up from tier 1 helldesk

That pissed me off to no end.
Thank goodness an extension went up almost immediately restoring the backspace key...
Nothing happened.
Question for americans: If the H1B system could be completely overhauled in a way that only the best indians earning very good salaries would be allowed in, would you be for or against it? I mean very smart indians, the best of India ONLY.
No more cheap replacements ever, not even one mediocre indian would be allowed in, unless they married an american or something obviously. If they still "took our jobs" it'd be because they are literally smarter.
In Europe it kinda works like this, a minimum salary that is well over the average for locals is required.
How about they stay and improve India?
How about NO MORE immigrants?
Look I actually like diversity. Its wonderful having all these vibrant and unique cultures around the world. So let's keep it that way and stop trying to blend them all into an amorphous blob of dullness. Stay away pajeet.
>>56406908
Diversity is about having the vibrant and unique cultures from around the world in one city, not away from each other kek that's the opposite.
They could stay and improve india, but America actually has the resources to poach them instead.
If it was like I said then this wouldn't be about cheap labor anymore but about legit competition. If other competent people are forcefully left out of the market you can't really pretend you deserve your success.
>>56406750
>Very smart indians only
How many more American companies do you want with Indian CEOs now?
FLOENNNNSSS
Also this is the image that makes it crash.
Works for me.
>>56407629
Works for me too
Do any of you regret building a PC? I'm about to pull the trigger on my first build so I can play star citizen, but most other video games bore me. It's basically going to be a GTA V and star citizen machine. I'm already 20, and I wonder if I'll even have the time or motivation to play video games over the next 4 years.
Fuck off >>>/v/
>>56406614
This is when you realize you should be doing something else with your time. But your PC will be useful in upscaling animu
>>56406614
Well, save in on the shit that isn't really necessary outside of gaming, get a modest rig. If you find that you DO game a lot even after a year or two then you only need to upgrade GPU and maybe CPU. If not, you haven't lost anything.
My computer restarts every time I play a intensive game (Doom or BNG Drive). Should I consider Buying a new power supply? I have a cooler master cx600 with a R9 280.
You should always have 700+ watt. But I don't think the power supply is the actual problem here. R9 280 is like the equivalent to a 680 GTX so your GPU is just really shit. But I can't say for certain.
>>56406639
Not anymore. The GTX 680 lagged far behind due to driver optimizations. Kepler was cucked beyond belief in recent years.
>>56406521
I only have $50 to spend on a new gpu ( college student) should I pull the trigger on this?

Why laptop batteries are so shit and expensive? Is there even going to be any improvement in near future?
>>56406442
>tfw laptop batter costs more than the laptop
jews just want you to buy a new laptop
Honestly, they aren't that awful. If you look in the direction of a chromebook or a 9 cell for a thinkpad, the batteries last upwards of 8 hours. The only thing that keeps a battery from lasting that long is having what most would consider good hardware. There's a trade off. But, if you wanted good hardware, you should've just built a desktop in the first place.
>>56406883
I just wanted very portable laptop with good battery life for university.
