do you consider overclocking part of the battle or stock speeds? Because I think that overclocking kind of adds to the comparison. Like EVGA's SC edition of the 1060 is actually pretty nice and beats the 480 I believe.

>>55650840
Yes. The only reason the two would sound differant would be because of manifacturing errors with the vinyl. Some people might say vinyl sounds better but they are probably placebo or hipsters.

Welcome to /fglt/ - Friendly GNU/Linux Thread.
Users of all levels are welcome to ask questions about GNU/Linux and share their experiences.
*** Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly GNU/Linux Thread. ***
Before asking for help, please check our list of resources[*].
If you would like to try out GNU/Linux you can do one of the following:
0) Install a GNU/Linux distribution of your choice in a Virtual Machine using VirtualBox or other software made for this puporse for safety purposes.
1) Use the Live ISO (if your distribution of choice has one) to boot directly into the GNU/Linux distribution without installing anything, that way, you can get to experience the GNU/Linux operating system without installing it.
2) Dual boot the GNU/Linux distribution of your choice along with Windows or macOS, this is recommended if you want to know more about the GNU/Linux operating system.
3) Go balls deep and replace everything with GNU/Linux.
Meet the /fglt/ team:

As for the rest of your question: the problem is that Windows has exponentially more attack vectors than GNU/Linux. There's all sorts of clever attacks that can root your computer and run malware against your will, they don't even have to be zero days. And Anti-virus software isn't impenetrable, far from it. One common example to spread ransomware are Microsoft Word macros. And there was an exploit back in the day (like in 2006) that rooted your computer if you loaded a fucking icon (.ico) file. So that's the level of vulnerability we're talking about. Windows is broken code built on top of broken code. Not even the Microsoft devs know the shitstorm they're dealing with.
Attacks on Linux that try to root your computer simply don't happen. The system is hard built to always require admin permissions either through the root user or the sudo command for temporary permissions. To get malware on Linux, you have to willingly install it yourself.
>>
>>55650815
OP, do you have loads of these images premade, or do you make a new one yourself for every thread?
>>
>>55650867
Thanks for answering.
So do you mean,
1. That hackers can remotely install malware on a Windows laptop even if I only use a limited user account all the time? (along with all the measures I mentioned in my original post.)
2. Do you mean Linux is simply more secure because it is less common? Or is its structure inherently more secure than Windows? (I'm guessing both are the case. I'd like to know which factor is more critical to enhancing Linux's security.)
If the first factor is the principal reason why people recommend Linux for security, I have got to say I am not impressed. I would like to know if there are fundamental structural difference between Linux and Windows that makes Linux a inherently more secure operating system.
>The system is hard built to always require admin permissions either through the root user or the sudo command for temporary permissions.
Isn't only using a limited account on Windows basically the same thing? You log in as either administrator (root user of linux) or enter admin password in prompt windows as a limited user for temporary permissions (the sudo command of linux)
I don't see why they are different.

I've tried researching a bit, but the most I've found is that you need to use something called "Sockets" to retrieve data from the internet

KYLE WAS 100% CORRECT ABOUT POLARIS BEING A TOTAL FLOP
http://www.hardocp.com/article/2016/05/27/from_ati_to_amd_back_journey_in_futility/
He predicted this AMD fiasco back in May.
>What HardOCP knows from sources inside and outside the company, AMD has a problem on its hands, as both these products have come up significantly short of where these were supposed to land. But that is OK for AMD, it will simply send Chris Hook out to fall on the sword and tell a story of that was the plan all along....to produce brand new parts much slower than its last high end GPUs. In the simplest terms AMD has created a product that runs hotter and slower than its competition's new architecture by a potentially significant margin
