Literally nothing wrong with that site
Why can't you guys accept that Windows 10 is the future? Are you really scared about Windows 10 stealing your data? Users' data and intrusive ads are necessary for further improvement and system development. Give Windows your data and it will reward you with the best protection and support service every user could dream of. Seriously, what do you need to conceal?

>extremely aggressive upgrade campaign
>windows changes your settings back without asking
>daily spyware updates being forcefed to your computer
>windows literally deletes other operating systems from your hard drive
Windows 10 is literally a yandere at this point.

This is a good thing.
Best archetype.
>>56042026
All these points except the so called "spyware" (a virtually non-issue for 99% of human beings) become invalid the instant you install Windows 10 on a new build, which is literally the only clever thing a pc user should do in 2016.
Want to set up a serious linux server. No memes /g/ (I believe in you).
I am thinking centos or ubuntu. What do you think?
Gentoo
Depends on what you're trying to run. I prefer CentOS, but home/hobbyist packages, say something like deluged, are going to be more up to date on Ubuntu, if even available on CentOS.

Okay guys, IBM PC XT guy here. I'll just try making a DOS boot disk formatted as 720K and copying files from that. I don't really care for the install of DOS that's on the hard drive right now, it's just that I'm too lazy to write down the bad sector list. Though a low-level format wouldn't be bad for the drive, right?
>>56039348
OK, this is weird. My laptop boots off the floppy just fine, but the IBM gives me a Non-System disk or disk error. I have tried with two drives, and I can't get it to work. Maybe it's because the floppy controller can't handle the timings of the turbo-XT board that's in the PC right now?

Turn it off in bios or unplug it
Loaded up Windows 7 in a VM, and I can truly say that I miss that OS a lot.
Should I ditch Windows 10?
Yes, yes you should
>>56036387
I really think I should as well. Could you point some things out for me? I really want some reasons to make me switch.

So what's going to happen to android when the new phone OS comes out?
>>56035494
They'll replace it with this so they can lock it down even further
>>56035494
Deprecated, as it should be.

Hey guys, what are your thoughts on beats headphones?
Using a 4k TV as a monitor:
Is this a bad idea? walmart has a 40inch on sale for $279, I have a 2016 13.3 rmbp, could I use this as a monitor?
in theory it seems like a good idea but I am not sure if my laptop could power it for gaming (light gaming like kerbal space)
Response time will be like a good few seconds
Don't fucking post unrelated cute girls showing feet on a technology board, faggot
>>56033437
Don't know about a 4k but there is a reason a monitor is more expensive than a tv it has to do with pixel density. when watching something on a TV you're farther than a monitor, which means that if you sit closely to a TV the image will not be perfect. (That was my experience with a full hd TV).
What language should I learn after C++?
English.
>>56030914
Rust, so you don't continue to pollute the world with C++ garbage.
>>56030914
python, javasript, maybe php&SQL
depends on what job you are trying to do
What's your opinion on site owners and publishers whining about adblockers?
>>56030649
If I like their content and visit regularly, I whitelist them. If theyre loaded with tons of banner ads and tracking js or they block me for using an adblocker I don't visit.
>>56030649
They bring unwanted attention to them.
Vast majority of Browser users don't even know about adblockers.
They are whining about pennies anyway. And they are likely to lose more when whining.
They're little bitches
Maybe include advertisements that aren't intrusive, or take up half the page.
Or, maybe not include advertisements at all.
I remember years ago ads were just a small little window on the side, or a banner on the top of the page. How can you expect people not to block them with the way they are today?
>Despite some feeble efforts by Intel Corp. (NASDAQ: INTC) to diversity its worker base, only 3.7% of its workforce is black. This is against 13.2% of the general population.
>Blacks are not the only group underrepresented on the chip company’s payroll. The white representation is 50.8%. Men make up 74.5%.
>In contrast, blacks represent 8.3% and 37.4% of AMD's (NASDAQ: AMD) workforce, respectively.
Other than AMD, what are some DIVERSE tech companies I can support?
> he fell for the diversity meme
I sure hope that in a few years we can all look back on this diversity meme and go "boy that was fucking retarded".
And by "all" I mean everyone, not just us here.
