I remember a neat file sharing program. I think it was encrypted. You connect to a key and you're one of many users sharing and browsing each other. Pretty cool.

Some /g/ users made a /g/ one. I can't remember what the program was even called. Anyone have a name of the program?

Why wont this shitty Javascript collision detection system work?

function colCheck(shapeA, shapeB) {
        
        // get the vectors to check against
        var vX = (shapeA.x + (shapeA.width / 2)) - (shapeB.x + (shapeB.width / 2)),
            vY = (shapeA.y + (shapeA.height / 2)) - (shapeB.y + (shapeB.height / 2)),
            // add the half widths and half heights of the objects
            hWidths = (shapeA.width / 2) + (shapeB.width / 2),
            hHeights = (shapeA.height / 2) + (shapeB.height / 2),
            colDir = null;
     
        // if the x and y vector are less than the half width or half height, they we must be inside the object, causing a collision
        if (Math.abs(vX) < hWidths && Math.abs(vY) < hHeights) {         // figures out on which side we are colliding (top, bottom, left, or right) 
        //var oX = hWidths - Math.abs(vX), oY = hHeights - Math.abs(vY); if (oX >= oY) {
                if (vY > 0) {
                    colDir = "t";
                    shapeA.y += oY;
                } else {
                    colDir = "b";
                    shapeA.y -= oY;
                }
            } else {
                if (vX > 0) {
                    colDir = "l";
                    shapeA.x += oX;
                } else {
                    colDir = "r";
                    shapeA.x -= oX;

        }
        return colDir;

Fug why am I such a lazy retard... I just didn't feel like installing some drivers. I autistically expected normies to be able to handle this shit on their own.

So I need a new laptop today and I do not have the privilege of having time to get one on the Internet

I went to a local shop and found these laptops but due to my lack of knowledge when it comes to processors I just wanted to ask you guys what you thought was the best deal or just the best build for the associated price. Is i3 shit and not recommendable? should one ALWAYS buy i5?

>Aspire E15 - Inten Core i3-6100U
>GeForce 940MX
>8GB DDR4
>256GB SSD
>499€

low price and good RAM + SSD but the processor is I3. is that bad or should I really stick to i5?

>Acer ES1 - Intel Core i5-4210U 1,7Gh (Turbo Boost 2,7)
>4GB DDR3
>1TB HDD
>Intel HD Grafik 4400
>499€

>Acer ES1 - Intel Core i5-4200U
>4GB RAM
>128GB SSD
>Intel HD Graphics 4400
>549€

>Acer Aspire - Intel Core i5-4200U
>8GB
>256GB SSD
>GeForce 920M
>599€

good specs but 100€ more (than my budget)

>inb4 Acer

I know there are better ones but these ones are the choices I have available
