Why isn't there an official "Delete your Facebook account" day?
Normies will eat that shit right up.
>>55620448
I would need to create one just to delete it...
>>55620448
What do you get out of it?
>>55620448
I use my account for communication.
It'd be nice, though, if there was an easy way to strip out all the data I've dumped into it over the years. I'd like to delete all my posts, likes, uploads, etc. and just be left with a blank account for use on Messenger.
>but they'd still have ur datas
yes, but they would if I deleted the account and started a new one, too. I've accepted Facebook as a necessary evil. It's the messaging platform of choice of my friends, and it's also how all the parties and events I go to are planned.
let's say I don't have common sense 2016
What's the best FREE antivirus /g/?
>>55620330
A Chromebook or Ubuntu.
Windows Defender / MSE + uBlock Origin.
Avast! + Malwarebytes or just don't ve stupid online
Holy God damn why is this such a garbage piece of shit?
>be Windows 10 + Google Chrome walking meme
>install Xubuntu
>install Firefox
>browser stops responding for like 3 seconds every time I load a webpage, or just crashes
>have seen web pages load faster back in my dial up days
Why is Firefox so trash?
It's using almost half a gig of memory just to have my email and 4chan open. I would have 15 taps open in Chrome and not use more than 200 mb.
>>55620218
Firefox on Ubuntu here. Soaring like an eagle of American freedom. What are you on about, OP? It could be your pre-historic computer. Mine is 6 years old. Yours?
I'm so sad that I've witnessed the gradual downfall of Firebird ever since they changed the name.

comcast is definitely throttling my connection in some weird way, when i use torrents. I already know that this has been known for awhile. I have not had the chance to discuss it with anyone else yet.
I don't know if this is the place for this kind of thread. Technology Policy thread, I guess? Like whats the deal with a software service provider announcing that the don't do something, and then doing the opposite? Such as saying they don't effect your connection when you are torrenting, but then obviously doing so? ... Seriously it is so obvious that my connection behavior changes slightly (fort the worse) when I have a torrent running. Sites load slower.
Has anyone else had this happen? Does anyone care? Will this thread get deleted? I'd like to hear from people who understand what might be happening to my connection, or people who have had this happen to them. Also what do you think Comcast is trying to succeed at when it does this? Maybe it's super simple, and I'm just unaware of something of little implication.

I have a sad story, but it's so sad that might make people cry so I'd rather keep it to myself :( Heads up, a machine, or rather the lack of it, is not the end of the world.
Hey /g/uys,
Not sure if at this time of the day some of the more knowledgeable folks are on, but I had a question about the dd command.
I have a spare disk, and I successfully dd'ed an image of my system's drive to it. And then I actually tested it, and it works just like it should. So that's great.
But what I now want to do is tweak my dd command so that I can output it, in a compressed format, to an archive (it's my understanding that an .img file is best for this). So I would have something like "backup.img.gz" or something?
How would I do that? I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to fill the unused space of the drive I'm backing up with zeros, and then spit to an output drive in compressed form?
So far I use:dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=4096 conv=noerror,sync
Any help is appreciated.
So the Arch Wiki is saying something like (edited a bit) --dd if=/dev/sda conv=sync,noerror bs=4096 | gzip -c > /sdb/Backup/backup.img.gz
What command should I use before this so that I can fill up the free space with zeros? (So that it actually compresses more efficiently?)
So judging by the threads on here right now it looks like this might be a bad time. But I'm going to bump three times because I'm a little but of a faggot but that's ok.
>>55619898
You can use if=/dev/zero for writing zeroes
My C++ teacher is having us get a book from 2002. Is this a bad sign or has not much changed in 14 years?
[X] Abort
>>55619674
Well if they changed too much then older programs would stop working.
The basics haven't changed much, but there are recent C++ specs that you really should be learning instead
So /g/ do you really think programming is hard or something?
>>55619665
It's not hard. It's tedious.

How is it? Is it better than Objective-C at least?
shit <=> shit
Just learn C# and then you make native apps for every platform that exists plus websites with one language.
>>55620004
no just no
>>55619633
yes it's better, especially if you know c++
I can't notice any difference between FLAC and MP3
What am I doing wrong?
You need a $1000 sound card and $5000 headphones
Nobody can, Anon. Not really.
>>55619507
FLAC includes frequencies all the way to 22 KHz while MP3 has a frequency cut between 20.5 to 16 KHz depending on the type.
With time your hearing gets worse you might not hear the higher frequencies
