>When a police officer showed up the tech entrepreneur's home Monday morning, the doors were locked, according to the records. But inside, he could see Murdock's naked body lying face down on the stairs -- and a vacuum electrical cord wound tightly around his neck, according to the medical examiner's report. The vacuum cleaner was positioned at the top of the stairs, behind the railing.

Hey /g/,
I'm looking for a piece of hardware that is the opposite of pic related. To be clear, I would like a PCIe x16 slot filler. So that I can plug a x1 card into it and the card is flush with the back of the case in order to be able to plug stuff into it. Does such a thing exist? Thanks for your help.
>>55449108
a x1 card will plug perfectly fine into a x16 slot. try x4 slots are designed the same way.
>>55449128
Here's a shitty pic. It fits and works, but I want to know if there is some sort of bracket that will make it so this usb card will be up against the back of the case.
Secondary question: why do so many people need a thing to expand a PCI e x1 slot into a x16 but I can't find the thing I want?

Phone seems to be what to buy this year besides maybe the HTC10. If you like spending gobs of money or renting to own you likely already have a Samsung anyways.

Just having second thoughts, like the 1080p screen and the no microSD slot.

Sure man if you wanna spend twice the money for the same specs without a sick ass ROM you did good
Seriously, where the fuck did all these Macfags come from this past month? It was getting better then suddenly we started having 5 active apple threads constantly. Get the fuck out of /g/ seriously, we don't need you faggot hipsters shitting up this board. If you really need to stay on 4chan, may I suggest these boards instead, >>>/hm/ >>>/fa/ >>>/lgbt/
Apple Hate Thread Guys.
>>55448981
They're faggots who can't be reasoned with arguments. I stopped ignoring them as I got older. They can die by cancer for all I care
>>55448981
Their entire self worth is tied to their corporate branded religion and their entire personality is based on a fruity logo. I used to find it sad and disgusting, but now I just find it funny. I kind of enjoy the occasional apple thread just to laugh at how retarded they are.
It's like going to the zoo, but the admission's free.

What's a good cheap (£) speakers for desktop? I'm looking between £50 - £150 ish
>>55448881
good and cheap do not go together
>>55448881
I have these speakers. they work pretty fucking well. my only issue is about a year after my purchase, I noticed the right speaker was slightly louder than the left speaker. it's really noticeable when the volume is very low bexause there would be literally no sound from the left speaker while the right speaker is a okay. maybe I have bad luck
You know when a folder in Windows 10 contains images, the thumbnails for the last two images you put in are shown as part of the icon for the folder? How do I stop folders from doing that, everywhere? I have too many to change them one by one.
Change the icon size until the "live folder" thing disappears.
>>55448904
What if I want the icons inside the folder to be big?
>>55448935
then stop using Windows if you don't want PhotoDNA to hash every image you download and upload the list to MS/NSA servers

How long does it take to upgrade to Windows 10?
Enough time to realize what you are doing and install gentoo.
>>55448680
No idea as I didn't fall for the botnet meme.

How about buying a laptop that doesnt have a really shitty chassis.
Oh, and one where the spacebar actually works

Adding "phone" to a desktop thread doesn't revoke the fact that this is a desktop thread.
Prepare for a shitstorm
(Desktop threads are not allowed anymore IIRC)
>>55448698
Oh shit, when did that happen?
>>55448709
Maybe a month ago? I'm not sure if it's really banned but I've seen tens of shitstorms and thinly disguised desktop threads splurging with anime pictures and whatnot.
They're to be redirected to /wsg/ ? I think ? Anyway I'm not sure how much your situation is relevant to that, might need to re-read the rules to confirm
Wtf is this shit. Does apple literally pay these fucks to push an iPhone on you? My Verizon contract FINALLY ended last week so today I went to T-mobile to get on their unlimted data option and upgrade to the s7 edge from s5. As I was setting the line up one of the the employees came out with an iPhone 6s plus and started talking about pricing and storage upgrades. I politely tell her I don't want the iphone and I want s7 edge. She COMPLETLY ingores me and continues talking. I speak up this time and she acts COMPLETLY shocked that I don't want the Normie phone 6. Says she'll be right back. THE FUCKING MANAGER comes out and says how much faster the iphone 6splus is than ANY android phone out there, has a better camera, Etc. Say I'll leave if she dosent get me my s7 edge. She does but I get attitude throughout the rest of my visit. Does apple really pay these fucks to push there Ishit?
>>55448677
Tmobile is poor as fuck and need the jew cash from Apple. Never got any such treatment at Verizon or even Sprint
Congratz on your lagdroid.
>they tried to save you from bad purchase.
Mfw your brand new phone will lose half its value within 6 months.
>>55448677
>Does apple literally pay these fucks to push an iPhone on you?
Yes. And even if they didn't, the store is going to make more money pushing that majority brand. Are you really this fucking dense?
>HUURRR DO THESE RESTAURANTS JUST GET PAID TO SHILL COKE AND PEPSI DURRRRR
