USE. AMD. YOU FUCK.

>but I want this build to be pretty future-proof
You don't do this by getting an outdated previous generation video card.

>Also, is the difference between RAM speeds really worth stressing over?
Yes, quite a few things are highly dependent on memory speed. Get 3000mhz+

>but lose out on some storage and potentially some RAM
You can always add a HDD or another pair of memory sticks down the road quite easily.

wait for the 490 to release or use a 3rd party 480

Fuck off with your shit /tv/ memes

Really makes you think... :^)

they meant for you to install windows 10 today for free

Nothing prevents you from just modulating any binary data and transmitting it. If you want to have error correction you'll have to do your own however, which is easy. Just calculate some BCH codes (look it up, wikipedia) on a small block size (like 8 BCH code bytes for 128 data bytes) and you'll be able to recover a crapload of errors, especially if you write the BCH codes at the end of the frame and using a magic string + parity bits to detect them.
Some audio codecs like opus and aac have error recovery modes, but I wouldn't trust that since you could still easily lose a frame. Error recovery clearly belongs to the lowest level layer. What I described is the most sure way you'll still have a frame to decode.
This is what the SDI protocol uses, except instead of a codec it transmits raw AES/EBU formatted samples at much much higher bitrates.
In fact if I were to design something which transmits compressed audio data, I would take most out of the SDI specs - encode my audio packet, put some 6 or so BCH codes on every 128 bytes, do a Manchester NRTZ encoding on the bitstream (to provide synchronization and some minor error resilience) and finally modulate that onto my carrier frequency with the bandwidth I've been given.

If you're going that route, learn HTML and CSS as well so you can at least get a grasp of the full stack.

Don't rely too heavily on phpMyAdmin when the time comes, its sort of a crutch when it comes to learning the PHP and MySQL combination.

As far as JavaScript goes, just try to have fun with it. Learn about click events and doing things with "window on load".

I've already taken a database class where we learned basic SQL and used a good bit of Oracle. Is MySQL anything like Oracle?

>>55623568
The answer to that question depends on how exactly you played with Oracle. Did you configure it?

The number if syntax differences is minute and sparse, however Oracle in general is more like an operating system in the configuration sense. There is a lot more "meat" to it, although the foundations of both are pretty similar (i.e.: the differences between GNU/Linux and Windows)

>>55623196
because of your bad configuration

>>55623196
Depends on your DE.

KDE is geared towards desktops

>>55623196
because you're an idiot and it depends on the distro and your brightness.

Nice FUCKING meme you fucking SPERGLORD FAGSHIT. Holy FUCK it pisses me off when some unoriginal, retarded assholish dickweed decides it would just be FUCKING HILARIOUS to post the SAME. OVERUSED. JOKE. What do you even fucking hope to gain out of this? Karma? Well you're certainly getting that, cause it seems like a lot of other inbred shitface fucking retarded autistic fuckshits are thinking you're just FUCKING HILARIOUS and that this joke HASN'T BEEN MADE A BILLION FUCKING TIMES. FUCK you.

Why does a midranged cpu need a dual socket/larger motherboard?

Larger? You mean smaller? Almost all the offerings aside from a handful are full atx

derp

Go to a goodwill outlet, I got a perfectly working one on the spot for 5 dollars

Did you even read about the updates? It's all useless shit like cortana, edge and botnet.

10 is good if you can find a LTSB image which doesn't have Cortana and all the other shit

No. It's still an unfinished mess and the next big updates fixed and adds only shit that literally NO ONE asked for.

I've used it since it came out and would've defended it as a good OS but the shit they keep pulling made me go back to 7. Fuck them. Seriously.

>>55622243
The point of reCAPTCHA is that it doesn't know all, only parts of it. Like the two word thing, it only knows one of the two words and is trying to learn the second. That's why you for a long time could enter "nigger" instead of the second word.

The image recognition thing is related. Google is using some machine learning algorithm to recognise pictures of street signs. There are often N pictures of street signs, but only N-1 pictures are actually required (because it tries to learn about the last one).

>>55622243
The botnet doesn't already know the answer. In your picture, the botnet knows the answer to either the first word or the second word. You don't know which word the botnet knows, so you have to answer both to the best of your abilities. After a while, the botnet takes the most common answer to the unknown word.

>>55622321
>After a while, the botnet takes the most common answer to the unknown word.
Ah yes, this was the piece of the puzzle I was missing. Thanks!

this is what one person had to say:
> it looks like a modified version of the normal AVI container format. There's a 16-byte long "Neople Video Fil" [sic!] header at the start, followed by another 16 bytes with file size and a few other fields I'm not sure of. After that header it looks like a regular RIFF AVI container, except the "movi" chunk is a regular chunk that video players can't parse, because they expect a list chunk. I'm not knowledgeable enough about video formats to convert these to standard AVI format. Video data might be using a custom codec or something too. There's also a few hundred bytes of weird junk data at the end of these. Not sure if they're at all significant.

>EDIT: Looks like a headerless idx1 chunk at the end, but the number of records doesn't seem to match the number of frames, and they don't point to chunks either, but raw data. Sticking the movi chunk in a list chunk doesn't really help either; there's only one data chunk that abruptly leads to a flood of headerless data that can't be read as a list.

try ffmpeg

Why would you not have backup of your settings and files?

Especially if they are stored on a fucking SD card?

>>55622030
So you play 4 hours into some game ROM and then have to immediately backup your savestate/memorycard file to another device so to not risk losing all your progress

Parentheses down at the bottom.

If you can't figure this out by yourself how will you deal with the programming near the end of the book?

Depends what you're trying to do.
If you're just going to mess around, get a raspberry pi. Latest Raspberry Pi 3 has:

SoC: Broadcom BCM2837
CPU: 4× ARM Cortex-A53, 1.2GHz
GPU: Broadcom VideoCore IV
RAM: 1GB LPDDR2 (900 MHz)
Networking: 10/100 Ethernet, 2.4GHz 802.11n wireless
Bluetooth: Bluetooth 4.1 Classic, Bluetooth Low Energy
Storage: microSD
GPIO: 40-pin header, populated
Ports: HDMI, 3.5mm analogue audio-video jack, 4× USB 2.0, Ethernet, Camera Serial Interface (CSI), Display Serial Interface (DSI)

They're nice and low-power. I run one for my home server.
