Based on the number of /v/-tier threads that's probably true. Windows user group should be banned from posting.

I keep hearing people say that amd is going to die and should die on this board. Im going to explain why that's a bad thing to happen in the computer industry.
Im just going to talk about the processor part of this because that's where the most damage in the industry would happen.
Back when in the early 80s intel made the x86 processor instruction set that we see modern desktop and laptop processors run on. Intel has only licensed out the instruction set to one other company to act as a back up manufacture of there processors. That company was AMD. Eventually AMD gave the middle finger to intel, and started making its own processors and starting a competition with intel that we see to this day.
Now what will happen if Amd dies will be a bad thing for the consumer. Intel will probably buy out amd and at that point intel would have a monopoly on the market. They could raise prices on there products, have bad products altogether and buggy drivers. And we would have to deal with it. No one else would have the license for the x86 instruction set. And intel would probably never license it out again seeing how it originally bit them in the ass. It would be a bad time all around. I know i sound like a AMD fan boy, but im not. I prefer nivida gpus and intels cpus. Im just saying how this would wreck the industry all around.

AMD isn't anywhere near bankruptcy, and they aren't being bought out by anyone. They're not going away.
Stop listening to shitposters.

Its a meme, amd is in its best shape since years.
It wont die for a long time if they dont fuck up something real bad.

Its only the absolute worst Nvidiots that say this shit. Don't worry, AMD ain't dying.
Stocks are up over 330% from what they had been not too long ago.

If surfing and shitposting is the extent of your computer usage, no, probably not. You'd probably be fine with 1024x768.
If on the other hand you do any kind of work or multitask at a mentionable level, yes, it's definitely worth it. Doubly so because 2560x1440 is the only common 16:9 resolution that's not anemic in terms of vertical space.
>>
The problem with increased resolution is the entire software ecosystem is totally fucked for the foreseeable futute and nobody seems to give a shit that technological advancement and thus their well being is shoe stringed by it

> He's scared of learning a terminal because it's "too hard" or "shouldn't be needed"
Come on, Anon. Don't you want unprecedented, distraction-free flexibility and efficiency? Don't you want to be able to pipe the output of one program to the input of another without having to use a mouse to copy and paste between clunky windows? Don't you like being able to easily automate everything?
It's easy, I swear! The basics take a week to memorize, at most. From there on out it's the same principle for every program you install for the CLI.
This isn't just a Linux or BSD thing, either. Mac is obviously very command line friendly, and powershell on Windows is nice too.
It's 2016. Time to take your working capability to the next level.

There is NO reason why one should delete systemd from his system. There is nothing systemd can't do what other init systems can.

How many years until human drivers are made illegal?

It will take 10 years or so before all brands offer automatic cars.
Then another 15 years until everyone has such a car.
So it will take at least 25 years.
But as a legalbro I'm not 100% sure it will happen. Because somebody has to be responsible with accents. And it sure as hell are not going to be the car or navigation manufacturers. Or perhaps they will get some massive insurance for it.
