What timepiece is Antonov wearing?

>>56082083
Do those tiny dots actually do anything?

They are pretty.

i like its detachable display that doubles as a tablet so I don't have to buy two devices

>>56082051
I REALLY like the touchpad. And the OS looks nice, however I'm not the biggest Apple fan.

The federal government created a special grant to give free chrome books to every student in high schools with high non-english speaking populations.

what will come of this?

>>56081848
50/50 keyboard bad/price good
no
yes

>>56081848
Google fag here.

We are not abandoning ChromeOS. It has a pretty extensive roadmap and will simply come closer to the Android ecosystem over time.

New devices coming soon friends :^)

It's not for people that are super concerned about the speed of their hard drive or how new their CPU is. It's for a market that wants to use the best versions of Adobe or casual consumers who have had bad experiences with Windows.

The 21.5" model is targeted at people who'd normally buy a laptop but prefer a desktop for whatever reason. Everyone I know who actually does work with their desktop has a setup with one or more 27" QHD monitors or one of those utlrawide things that are popular lately.

If you look at the 27" model, you get something that looks a lot more like a desktop. It uses a desktop i5 and desktop HD, leaving the GPU and RAM as the only mobile components.

That said I don't think I'd buy a 27" model either. I'd prefer a mid-level headless tower akin to the old entry-level Powermac towers, but it would seem that Apple wants to upsell those with needs beyond a desktop AIO to the cylinder Mac Pro whether they need it or not. This is the single largest driving factor for the increasing popularity of hackintoshing.

>>56081959
Yea I don't know what they're thinking offering only the Mac Pro for a legitimate desktop computer.

Not technology

Why don't you just buy your own router and modem?

>>56081555
I'd like to, but I still live with my parents. They'd only be satisfied if I bought the same one, and that's $200.

I'd like to be able to just set this up and be the only one to connect to it, and leave everyone else connected to the first router. Is that possible?

All I want to do is have the ability to forward ports to host gameservers.

One. Get a decent router that you can mod/flash later. Decent enough investment to get a better grasp of what your router can do and is capable of in the future. Plus it's fun turning old routers into semi-femtocells.

2. Two: Why not just share the router? Or (probably out of technical range for most) create an VLAN for something unique to you. But if you absolutely must, get a decent router regardless.

nigga that thing looks larger than the Nexus 5X, and that one has a 5.2" screen.

>>56081048
The only bezels that matter are the side ones. Having bezels on top and bottom is good and it doesn't really affect how big it 'feels'.

If you are worried about unused empty space you shouldn't be using android in the fist place.

what do you do with your raspberry pi ?

I don't know Plasma 4 is pretty cozy.

>>56080563
I'm only partly using FOSS software, but let me explain my thing.


Imagine the Panopticon concept. Put yourself in the middle, in the tower, where you can look at them, but they can't look at you.
The prisoners are the devs.

They behave as if they're constantly watched, which prevents them from trying to pull shit like this.

>>56080563
Well

Hum

Look at you

Windows spys on you for a fact

Linux doesn't

what about that smart guy

>>56080563
I audit my system through monitoring my network and the use of a firewall. Admittedly, this is not the same as auditing the source code of the various softwares I use, however, if things can't get in and out without my permission, I really don't care. I've yet to find anything malicious in anything I've installed.
Knowing how "autistic" the Linux community can be has put my mind at ease as well because there are definitely people out there who do examine the source code and they would definitely point out any faults.
