Just a heads up to anyone using homebrew on OSX, every time you install a package it contacts google analytics https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=google-analytics&type=Code

Just a heads up to anyone using OSX, Apple's Operating Systems Are Malware
https://www.gnu.org/proprietary/malware-apple.html
Malware means software designed to function in ways that mistreat or harm the user. (This does not include accidental errors.) This page explains how the software in Apple's computer products are malware.
Malware and nonfree software are two different issues. The difference between free software and nonfree software is in whether the users have control of the program or vice versa. It's not directly a question of what the program does when it runs. However, in practice nonfree software is often malware, because the developer's awareness that the users would be powerless to fix any malicious functionalities tempts the developer to impose some.
Apple Back Doors
Mac OS X had an intentional local back door for 4 years, which could be exploited by attackers to gain root privileges.

The iPhone has a back door that allows Apple to remotely delete apps which Apple considers “inappropriate”. Jobs said it's OK for Apple to have this power because of course we can trust Apple.

The iPhone has a back door for remote wipe. It's not always enabled, but users are led into enabling it without understanding.

It's $38 at amazon.

Should i replace my 10 years old lovely Logitech G9 with it?
If its used, avoid it. I got a used one and it broke down after a few months
>>56117254
a used mouse sounds like a cum danger
>>56117189
if it's used, don't. razer isn't even that great.
>More and more jobs will only take applications through Linkedin or even worse Facebook

>Some employers won't hire you if you aren't on social media
Will we eventually reach the point to where we must join the botnet to find work?
>>56117182
not for the dirty jobs
>>56117182
>More and more jobs will only take applications through Linkedin or even worse Facebook
Considering the middle-school level bullshit, the implications of private and work life, among other things, this is unlikely.
>>56117182
Amerifats are surreal for sure
How can Raspberry Pi even compete?
This is a million years old single core Netbook that will soon get a 2GB RAM upgrade. I was blind, but know I can see. SBCs are shit. Or are they? Show me a SBC that can beat Intel Atom in performance without drawing more power and boiling.
cool story bro
You don't get raspberry pis for performance. You get them for the size
Orange Pi Plus 2
What kind of recording setup do you use /g/?
My mic recently died and I'm looking for a replacement. Not sure if I should bother going XLR this time around because the extra desk/cable clutter doesn't seem worth the tiny audio differences.
>>56117100
Mackie 1202 VLZ4 Mixer, Multicom PRO XL MDX4600, Heil PR-40 and a Scarlett 2i2
Apollo 8p with U47 as a mic
Little overkill for talking to people on discord but I just use leftovers from the studio
>>56117100
Steinberg UR22 mkII + old electric guitar + Novation Launchkey 61 + Blue Yeti + cheap XLR mic + Yamaha PSR 275 + Yamaha DGX 530
How are you celebrating Debian Day, anon?
I don't use Debian :/ it's okay for servers but not my desktop or laptop.
Has it been a year ago that Ian died?
>>56117060
installed windows 10 on my comp
felt good wiping any trace of gnuuuuu
What made that site freecst.com fail /g/ ?
Not sure? What is the point of this thread?
>free
That's probably why.
agressive shilling on /g/
How can I use a program like Vuze through a safety program like tor?
Is their a better way to use torrents than googling a game like Freedom Force torrent, and downloading the first file that pops up/
>>56116894
Don't ever torrent anything over tor. You're slowing the network down doing that.
>>56116894
>Is their a better way to use torrents than googling a game like Freedom Force torrent, and downloading the first file that pops up/
I like Steam, but if you don't for some reason there's platforms like GOG or even your chosen GNU/Linux distribution's repositories.
>>56116921
I doubt OP cares about pedos not being able to download their cp at max speed.
ITT: interesting mobile micro computer packages (smartphone apps)
Pic related is the MusixMatch widget, displays song lyrics in Notification Center. Very convenient.
Would any anons like to share apps they enjoy, or think are essentials?
>>56116831
Unclouded - Gives you access to all your botnet data mining cloud services at once
i wonder if task killers are good or bad
>>56117227
Bad. Let the os do it for you.
Now that the dust has settled, what are Windows 10's biggest problems?
>>56116790
This shitty thread.
>>56116821
I'm running Manjaro though.
>>56116790
YOU pajeet. You are windows 10 biggest problem. This board would stop giving a shit about the OS if you stopped shilling it, goddamn.
>install ubuntu
>firefox actually looks good out of the box
Why aren't you using Ubuntu yet /g/?
i like fedora
>>56116759
I use Linux but not Ubuntu.
Anyway, wincucks always complain how much Firefox crashes or how laggy it is, but that literally never happens to me on Linux.
Like literally, I don't think Firefox has crashed even once in half a year now.
It just werks.
I don't even use Firefox.
>it looks good out of the box
Not even close

WHEN IS NEXT NEXUS COMING OUT!
SHOULD I GET NOTE 7 OR WAIT FOR NEXUS
WANT BEST HARDWARE
SMART PHONE GENERAL A FUCKING SHIT
>>56116597
Nexus 2016
>shittier version of latest HTC
>bottom facing speakers instead of previous front facing
>smaller than 6P
>Wireless charging removed
You'd have to be retarded.
>>56116796
No, they will have front facing speakers. I don't believe those leaks. All they need to do is improve internals of nexus 6p, and make it a new phone. The 6p was a game changer smartphone. Google cannot fuck this up, plz
>>56116859
It's the same people who leaked the last phone.
It's legit senpai.
And HTC are making the new phone so they're not just going to improve over the 6P as that was a dif. manufact.
The only good thing about the new nexus is Android N.
Will technology one day become so advance that you'll be able to download torrents on a microsd card on any electronic device?
I want to be able to pirate the latest vydias on my toaster already god damnit!
>>56116580
>>56116580
you can already do so on android.
samsung has 256 GB sd cards available and sandisk has 200 GB.
These go on sale all the time online and in brick and mortar stores.
>>56116580
you can already from thermostats
but in future, sdcards will get deprecated for good
