What are you working on, /g/?

Why do graphics card manufacturers insist on having 3 DisplayPort output interfaces when most of the high end and medium class monitors don't even use DisplayPort? I mean, what other purpose does multiple interfaces on a graphics card have other than support for multiple monitors. Since most monitors use HDMI, then why the fuck do GPU manufacturers insist on having only ONE HDMI interface but have then 3 extra DisplayPort interfaces?
Shut the fuck up, DP is the standard both in the high end class monitors and in your mom's bedroom when me and my boys roast her.
>>56064325
Lol from the list of high end monitors, I could count the DPshitters with my fingers on one hand. This is the case of "wannabe future techheads" designing shit with no regards to the consumer. They just want to wank on their supermegahyper advanced technology USE OUR TECH NAO
what is the point of triple monitor? Why not just get a larger monitor? Because it's cheaper? oh...ok.
THANK YOU BASED NVIDIA

Isn't the 1080M just a 1080 with an underclock?

designated poo in loo forums
>>56062749
It's got to be more than just underclock. That sounds slow and hot as shit.
Whats the most successful software project that you've contributed to?
All the ones I'm paid to.

I never actually finished any of my software projects.
Well my post was right before the new thread so I'm reposting it. dwi.
Hi guys, I want to do something a little complicated.
I want to make an executable where you can just pass a string as an argument, and it will return an image in which this string is rendered in a specific font, size, with a rectangular fill behind it.
I can probably figure out the code if I'm just pointed towards the best tool/language/IDE that will allow me to make such a program quick.
Whether it would make it work on UNIX or Windows, I can probably work with it either way.
Thanks.
so my friends huawei smartphone needs unlocking. it only functions on onr specific sim card from specific company. i want to unlock it so it could use every sim card. what software will i need to do the work?
>>56060843
can the compute stick handle some ROM flashing?

Who the fuck thought this would be a good idea?
>>56059522
Martin Hajek, apparently.
>>56059522
The Lenovo touchbar was a train wreck, will be interesting to see if Applel does a better job

Yup, total pleb
It's time to face the facts. Richard Stallman is nothing more than a whining, overly obese autistic manbaby who has not done anything beneficial for the computing OR technology world in the past 20 years. Seriously. Name something that RMS has done after 1995 besides bitching, crying, and moaning about bullshit that does not matter, or making some retarded, incomprehensible speech.
He demands that Linux be called GNU/Linux. That is fucking insane. The only reason GNU, GPL, and FSF are still a THING is because of Linus and the invention of Linux. If anything, Stallman should rename GNU to Linux/GNU, because without Linus, the GNU, GPL, and FSF would not be a thing anymore.
Stallman still has the fucking gonads to act like he's superior to everyone else. Saying shit such as "I'm not glad he's dead, but I'm glad he's gone" right after Steve Jobs' death. What an asshole. Stallman has not even programmed a single line of code since 2008, that was AFTER he essentially stopped in 1992.
He should be fucking grateful Linus stepped in to save his ass, and even allowing him to take partial credit for his achievements. If it wasn't for Linus, he would be nothing, he would probably be dead in a Burger King dumpster right now.
Besides, what has he ever even done? He claims to have written eMacs, but in reality he actually cloned gosmacs (the first eMacs that was made for UNIX). He didn't even write 50% of the code in eMacs.
You might say he wrote GCC and GDB, but the truth is that he initally wrote the C compiler, but now the vast majority for the same compiler is done by contributors.
He's a washed up, morbidly obese man who tries to stay relevant by having these retarded arguments that are similar to those found in the Soviet Union. Face it GNU/Freetards, Richard Stallman is a fat dickhead, and the only reason his name is still in the books is because of Linus's achievements.
I get he's a meme on here, but I don't care. He's not worthy of meme status.
>>56058367
I agree with you OP on everything but the meme thing.
Mr Richard makes for a delicious meme.
Also just ignore everyone who uses GNU/Linux for a name non-ironically, because they're memesters
It's time to face the facts. Richard Stallman is nothing more than a whining, overly obese autistic manbaby who has not done anything beneficial
Replace stallman with "g users" and you still 100% right
>>56058367
>He's not worthy of meme status.
you cared. that makes him worthy.
Is he dead, /g/?
>>56055526
Probably.
what made you think he might be?
this is a retarded question to ask without any prompting.
ya
Didn't see a smartphone general so...
I'm about to fucking do it! Im getting an iPhone SE but im still on the fence on it.
My options are Z3C, HTC 10, S7 and lastly a 6s
>>56054916
no compatible LTE on my carrier and shitty country
>>56055074
/g/ told me its actually worse in those aspects. And that the z3c is more reliable
>>56055209
Z3c is great, z5c has better specs, but slightly worse battery life.
Problem with z3c is that it's dated, so unless you're getting a good deal, it's best to step up to a z5c.
Don't blindly listen to what g says, take our advice and apply it to your own personal research.
I love restoring old hardware, don't you?

FreeBSD fucked up their security and OpenBSD has no nonfree drivers and softeares.
The only hope was FreeBSD and it's finished
How's laptop support in OpenBSD? I've got Intel wireless, Intel graphics, pretty normal stuff I think. Might try it out.
>>56037389
>no nonfree drivers and softeares
having no non-free drivers is a good thing.
wtf is softeares
Tell me one (1) reason to use GNU/Linux now, your imaginary "freedom" doesn't count.
for a cute desktop
>>56064868
freedom
>>56064904
Gay
I've switched to Windows from Linux.
Reasons:
-More compatible
-Better programming tools
-Full driver support
-Tons of apps
-Gaymes
-IMO Linux is overrated
/g/, did I make the right decision?
>>56064585
I'd use Linux if it weren't for two essential things;
>no professional standard software
>no games
95 looks better
>>56064605
You're right but there's nothing to do.
AMD or Nvidia?
I have an AMD at the moment which im quite happy with for the money i got it for,and that 3.5GB VRAM fiasco didnt bring me confidence in nvidia
Fuck off.
