I've only used FreeBSD in a server environment, and it's pretty damn neato.

Good documentation and general cleanliness.

I can't think of any Linux distribution that has something like /usr/local

My parents got a free Windows 98 computer system out of one of those timeshare scams. They didn't want it, so I got it. Used it regularly until around probably 2003.

That's actually pretty neat, did you keep it in a good shape or did you run it to the ground?

Because stock coolers are shit, and thermal paste isn't a hassle.

>stock coolers are shit

They just werk. Integrated heat sinks would mean a complete redesign anyway.

>thermal paste isn't a hassle.

Yes it is

>>55752619
You're dumb

Qi charging is not bad. Fast charging is a little more debateable.

Most people keep phones 2-3 years with moderate charge cycles. Both inductive charging and quick charging are fine for this.

That being said when they're on sale you can get quick charge 2.0 certified chargers for less than $10/each AND they're much less likely to be dislodged by bumping the phone, so it's overpriced for a gimmick for desktop use.

depending on how their DNS was setup, it could localy redirect that URL first before asking for something on the internet

assuming dynamicly assigned DNS

I'm sure it just resolved to 192.168.1.1 so you'd get your router's config page. Other manufacturers do the same thing.

I guess asking people to type in a short string of numbers makes them think their hacking teh c0mp.

i'm pretty sure using an anonymous pseudonym is a felony in the state of california, but it's not like anyone has ever been arrested for it.

You can't enforce something like that.

Depreciated technology is where all the jobs are.

Linux firewall still uses it through ufw

Windows NT used to have full POSIX support.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsystem_for_UNIX-based_Applications

Not enough people used it to continue development.

>Perhaps Microsoft one day will provide full POSIX support.
That day was in 1994 senpai

>>55752126
It is. It's still in beta but I managed to upgrade to Xenial and now I'm compiling a full Win32 project on it.
Probably the best feature Microsoft have ever added to its system.

USB 3.0 wouldn't be buttleneck for such a RAID, right?

to put this in english: you want to use a rpi zero as a computer and hook it up to your television, and power it via a battery? or am i getting it wrong?

I heard that Raspberry Pies aren't very good for media.

Also, I would be interested in anyone posting links to tutorial videos they disliked while trying to fix any sort of issue.

>Music.
I don't want to listen to whatever music you think is cool. If I want to hear music I'd open a music player and listen to music I like.

This is just stupid, the youtube page already lists your name and even adds a button on the video with yuor name, no need to add another 10-20 seconds to the video with an annoying animation which adds nothing to the content of the video. If you're worried about it being stolen and added to another site without your consent then watermark it. At least that way I don't waste 20 seconds watching crap I don't want to see.

Do I even have to explain this? Just don't do this.
