I wish someone would even explain how to use a VPN - the wiki doesn't, it just states that you SHOULD use one.

Is there even such a thing as a free vpn?

>>56015733
I believe so, but usually their speeds aren't as good, or they keep logs of some kind.

>>56015733
Yeah just google it

I don't use one myself but would use one if there were a reliable way to configure it per-browser so the rest of my traffic isn't affected and doesn't require switching around

>Computer scientists have discovered a serious Internet vulnerability that allows attackers to terminate connections between virtually any two parties and, if the connections aren't encrypted, inject malicious code or content into the parties' communications.
So if you're using HTTPS, the absolute worst they could do to you is terminate the connection.

>The malicious, off-site JavaScript code attack is possible because the vulnerable USA Today pages aren't encrypted.

No java installed=no problems
Freetards confirmed correct
I guess anyone not using a bleeding edge distro like Arch will have to wail til kernel 4.7 lands to escape this vulnerability.

Java =/= Javascript

sorry this isn't a general you can go fuck yourself

Never heard of it but it seems to be a much better alternative to Process Explorer for my needs.

Thanks senpai.

i use it and it's great. literally no downsides.

Are you shocked that there are legions of autistic NEETs with too much time on their hands?

She is right, you know? Something is wrong if you care more about having the hippest tools instead of using them.

Note 6 hello?

It's great looking and everything but as long as it's not rootable and bootloader unlocked. It fails.

>>56015158
>not rootable
Hasn't been since the Note 5. RIP.

S6 owner here.
Have had this phone about a year now, and before that I had a nexus 4 for 3 years.
Stock Android is smooth as butter compared to any flavor of TouchWiz on any Samsung device.
Samsung software isn't where it needs to be but they do make some fine chips and phones.
Samsung also makes some VERY heavy modifications to the Android OS they ship their devices on, especially on the performance/memory side of things.

So yes, anyone who claims that TouchWiz is smooth or can be smooth after animation and performance tweaks is a fucking shill.
Don't blame Android though.

>>56016588
Samsung sells >50 % of all Android phones. So try to explain yourself as you will, people will always blame Android for the shit Samsung does.

>>56016649
Source?
And yes, Samsung is a huge reason why Android has a bad reputation for lagdroid and such.
But I will admit, Android has shit tier input/touch latency.

Buying a used HDD is never a good idea. Ever. $20 USD for a 320 GB is a ripoff anyway, that shit is garbage. Anything under 1 TB is trash.

>>56015043
This is for my x201 (school machine)
The HDD in it is dying so I just need a replacement on the cheap.

>>56015291
You can almost get a brand new Ssd for that price. Don't buy it. It's a total ripoff even if it was brand new

It's why I'm betraying AMD and Sapphire for Nvidia and Zotac. A 1080 will be a fun experiment. If the fucking thing fails me, then I return it and stick with my decent 390. Whatever works.

That's nice. Any paticular reason you're showing a hex printout of an obselete file system header?

What does an EXT4 one look like?

Just a bunch of blank memory addresses who the F*** cares linuxtard

Where can I find old, repairable computers for free?
It's illegal to enter recycling areas where I live, and people don't usually straight up throw them out.

wrong site

I've always found thrift shops to be massively helpful. I bring a USB live disk with me wherever I go, and use it to test computers that don't want to boot into an OS.

Deseret Industries (mormon Goodwill) carries a bunch of computers and such. Also, garage sales have been kind to me in the past, but that varies depending on where you are.

you're selling it to a normie most likely,

why would a normie give a shit about a pirated OS? as long as it is quiet nobody gives a shit. only old people too scared of computers would feel 'unsafe' in face of this.

if they ask you about it say you sold it with a 80 dollar discount so they could afford the OS.

although they didn't ask for a pirated OS, they didn't ask for something they can't use or play gaymes in either.

do this: install windows 8.1 in it. disable all junk besides the font optimization and windows shadows. the pc will at it's peak speed in this crap OS.
if they're stupid enough to use windows 10, they'll resent it (just like I do) and find the pirated OS even better than the paid one.

That's what I was thinking too, but it makes me more confident to here it from someone else.

If you want an actual answer than a pirated copy of windows would be better than a Linux Distro for general sale.

If you want a more autistic answer, honestly pirating software and trying to pass it off as legitimate to use for a sale is a lack of integrity on your end. It's up to you to decide if that means anything but I honestly feel that the world gets a little shittier when people give up on their integrity, even for stupid shit like this.

But what do I know, I'm just some random poster in a nigerian knitting club.

put it up your asshole and let your hairy skinny hand/arm follow until your shoulder is there and your hand protrudres from your mouth and you do the 'talk talk' gesture with your hand, it looks like a bird comma

pajeet is actually smart DESU

Nah it's probably because you're ugly.
