>An Asus RT-N16 router I bought back in 2012 for $89 (on sale)
>it's still selling for $109 brand new
how is this possible?it was first released in 2009, and only supports 2.4GHz 802.11n at 300Mbps.
Seems like dual band 802.11ac routers are way cheaper. I could sell my RT-N16 used, and buy a cheaper, better performing router.
/g/ let's talk about routers
what's the use
>>55809703
are you one of those normies who just use the modem/router combo given by the ISP?
those ones are fine in some cases, but a dedicated router can do much better
i think it's because the rt-n16 is supported by custom firmware
am i safe watching porn through a live cd of ubuntu in virtual box?
no you might still end up getting aids
No there are virtual box vulnerabilities where malware leaks to the host.

Why doesn't Intel make a discrete GPU? Their 14nm process is better than anyone else's.
>>55809463

Because they aren't capabale of making them competitive.

sudo needs to be installed in order to run it though
Got an old shitty HP work laptop (8460p). Should I harvest the parts or install gentoo on it?
the easily harvestable parts from it are low quality and will fetch a low price. i'd install gentoo but taking it apart could be a neat beginner project

Install Gentoo OP, it's an educational and frustrating process but the rewards are great.
I want to buy a 40-50GB FTP server

How can people ever prefer tablets if they have a choice? It's like asking for a Gameboy for christmas instead of an N64.
>>55809025
Tablets are more comfy in many situations, like when you have to travel light but still need a pc, or in bed, or in public transport, or in the bathroom.
You get the fucking idea you hypocritical cunt
>>55809025
>How can people ever prefer tablets if they have a choice?
They saw a flashy ad with attractive people with smiles doing wonderful things, or were influenced by someone to get a fucking tablet.>>55809065
>Tablets are more comfy in many situations
...for doing useless things! Tablets are a useless joke!
Find me a person who actually does serious work on a fucking tablet, I'll show you a shill!

Very simple, people are literally only needing a device to browse the web. And not the active kind of web browsing, I mean the passive kind, just consuming stuff, watching youtube, reading news, stuff like that. Most people have no fucking idea what you can do with a computer besides that. And for those people a tablet is unironically the more comfortable choice.
