>smart TV
I have yet to see a smart TV that is actually smart. Complete waste of money.

An HTPC or Raspberry Pi is eons better than some dumb "smart TV" bullshit.

I'm going to guess no to your /sqt/ question.
>>
Unless your "smart TV" is running Android the answer is no. I think there's an Emby client for Samsung TVs though, that's likely the best you'll get.

just spend a few bucks on a pi and mount it to your VESA mount on the back of your TV. i got one in my guest room and loaded it with different repos to be able to stream. I recommended OpenELEC - it's a lot less bloated, as it has only what is needed on it to run it, no unnecessary extras like an DE or WM etc.

What performance can I expect in the following;

GTA IV
GTA V
Watch_Dogs
3DS Max with VRay RT
ZBrush
Gazebo (running on Ubuntu)

>Finally, plot twist;

Why is Ubuntu 14.04 preferred to more recent editions in literally everything I see?

The current Stable build of Firefox appears to be v47. Not that the version number makes a huge difference, given the pace at which they're bumped up now.

I still remember using Firefox 2, and when Firefox 3 dropped, it felt so shiny and amazing. Blew everything else out of the water.

Come on guise.

Does nobod'th remember browsers of old?

Why does a shitty X201 sandy bridge integrated intel graphics chip perform 250% better than a T61 NVIDIA Quadro NVS140M in a T61, with both the nouveau and binary nvidia modules, dkms and standard? The X201 uses the i915 module.

Yes it is 4 years older, but lets compare. A quadro from 2012 should perform better than a Haswell iGPU from 2016, right?

the quadro is really there for cuda and double float precision not for graphics...

I am fresh out of college and have a Java Developer interview tomorrow. I would really like this job as it pays well and it's something I want to do.

What are essential interview questions I should go over? Keep in mind it is a position for fresh college grads so they do not expect Java masters.

you can't know what they will ask till you're there. I had a phone interview yesterday for a php developer job. most of the questions were me being asked about what i did in uni rather than what i know about PHP
>>
>>55075292
Spring framework, Hibernate framework and JUnit if it is anything web related.
>>
>>55076065
Of course you can know, just ask someone who has done multiple job interviews, the questions are always more or less the same.

windows actually. On linux kde i guess ,or maybe xfce/something that lets you edit panels. But if you want unity without a topbar (which i really dont understand why they didnt do it that way in the first place since the top bar is useless) than no.

Which is the best for a laptop? Does having KDE really kill battery life so much? Is Xfce really deprecated? Is MATE more bloated than KDE?

A store
They'll give stuff to you for free if you leave money behind

lemonparty.org

You have to wait like 3 minutes for the front page to disappear, it's designed to deter most stupid people from using the free service. They usually have 320k mp3 rips straight from CDs and if not they usually have the 128-192k aac rips from itunes.

Donate a few bucks if you like the service.

This will be my first time upgrading my PC.

What I wish to upgrade is my:
Motherboard
Ram
GPU
Power Supply
Monitor
Case

My current system includes:
ASUS Z87-C Motherboard
i7 4770k 3.5 ghz
16gb DDR3
Geforce 430 GT

What I wish to get is:
A motherboard that can hold DDR4, and is compatible with a Geforce GTX 970.
A CoolMaster 750 Plat Power Supply (I might only need a 550-650).

So If someone could recommend me a motherboard that is worth its weight, and can hold the DDR4 plus the GTX 970 that'd be great.
