Shill bait thread.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

It's sad, really. Anyone who shows even the slightest bit of interest in alternative operating systems, privacy, or security are immediately dismissed as a paedophile, a terrorist, or a shill.

"Nothing to hide, nothing to fear" is a retarded fallacy. See: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1827982

My god WHY WONT THAT FUCKING COMPANY JUST DIE

The 100i v2 is a rebrand of the 100i GT. They changed the previously confusing naming scheme to a new confusing naming scheme for 2016.

I figure the expense involved. The size necessary to lift the bomb. Line of sight needed to control it, meaning the pilot has to be fairly near.

Are you planning to drop off and have the drone fly back? They can't blend into the surroundings.
Are you planning to sacrifice the drone, so it's easier for you to escape? Then presumably they might be able to investigate who purchased the drone, or the component parts (and cross reference multiple sources.)

It's way easier to just deliver in person, then blend into the crowd to make your escape.

It is not going to be widely used because it will be a premium service and nobody is going to pay extra to get something off Amazon within 30 minutes because there is nothing that important exclusive to Amazon that can't be bought at any store in a 30 minute drive distance away.

There's cheap twenty dollar drones you can get from chink land. No tracking present. So yeah it's a little horrifying but it isn't like you will ever leave your mom's basement.

Relatively

more secure than windows. less secure than a fully patched loonix system most likely

Blown out of proportion. The affected repository was fixed pretty quickly, and then most people could have avoided the hacks If they would have just verified the image before installing.

The hackers got into Linux mint 17 and now we're on 18 anyway.

So I shouldn't have updated?

Does the saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mean nothing to you?

>>55907158
You should treat each Windows 10 "Milestone" like it's own seperate OS. Microsoft already is.

Prepare to clean install every 6 months if you want to stay on the upgrade train and not deal with bugs and issues.

>I tried CSGO
CSGO doesn't use your GPU almost at all, it's pretty much CPU based

dunno otherwise faam

i love hackers keyboard but its a bitch to type on

They focus on meme technologies like Async and Vulkan instead of proper support for shit people actually use like OpenGL

Situation will reverse later this year when DX12 shits on nvidia cards

>>55907323
And then Nvidia develops DX12 compatible cards that destroy AMD's, and people buy them because they arent foodstamps poor like AMDrones

Can I ask about earbuds or is that frowned upon? I work in a warehouse and listen to music on my apple earbuds but would like an upgrade.

>Budget is anything under $150, preferably $50ish but I'd shell out some cash I guess
>USA
>iPhone pleb
>Must be comfortable! I'll be wearing these for up to 8 hours a day
>Apple earbuds get the job done but are kinda meh. They hurt my ears after a few hours. I also have Audio Technica ATH-M50x and I like them

So for the most part, measurements and reviews give me the impression that the HE-400i are worth it. Although one review claimed they sounded veiled with certain music, which sounds unlikely desu. Anyone have any experience with them to confirm or deny them being good?

I mean they were selling the beta versions for $300 so I don't see how this is surprising.

Good night sweet prince

Congrats you bought a dinosaur laptop

Ive got like 40 gb of laptop ram laying around so i can just throw that shit in

Try putting parentheses around your print statement, for example:

print(test)

>>55906095
This guy is correct.

Code Academy teaches you an older version of python. In the latest version you must put parenthesis around your print statements.

>>55906023
You're missing a parenthesis surrounding the string in quotes. It says so right in the error message. Also, CodeAcademy teaches version 2.7 while you're using 3.5. Download version 2.7 if you want to follow along with the tuts.
