>Police in Australia and Europe were aware of a paedophile site called the Love Zone hidden in the so-called dark web. It was protected by passwords, encryption and specialist software. Users were totally anonymous. . . Officers with Task Force Argos in Australia knew the creator of the site used an unusual greeting - the word "hiyas". After exhaustively trawling chatrooms and forums in the open internet, they found a Facebook page of a man who used the same greeting. Although the Facebook page was fake, they identified a picture of a vehicle and that led them to a man called Shannon McCoole - a child care worker in Adelaide

Did the cops seriously isolate this guy with the word "hiyas?"

And how'd a fake profile lead them to the right man anyways?

So with the RX 480 set to absolutely rape nvidia senseless along with all the yet to be released cards being available in the next few months, I think I'm going to wait until the dust settles and prices tank to make a final decision on what I want to buy as a long term card.

In the meantime, I'm on a shit-tier Acer piece of shit laptop with a 760m that gets as hot as a broiler and stutters in CSGO (which incidentally is pretty much the only game I play atm). I've been wanting to bite the bullet for months now and sell this turd and build a cheap desktop, with a used average card as a placeholder until the new ones comes out.

Basically I'm looking for something ridiculously cheap, maybe $50-100 (so probably AMD?) that can run CSGO and maybe Overwatch. Yes, I'm a casual. What's the best price/performance pick of the old generations?

So I fell for the Linux meme a few months ago on my old laptop just to check it out. I barely use it and would like to reinstall Windows 8 on it again so that I can have a backup laptop for work. I think I may have overwritten the entire windows 8 OS and can't find any of the original files. The laptop in question is an HP Envy TouchSmart which I bought in 2014. Wondering if the windows 8 install prompt is still hidden somewhere on this thing, and if so, how can I find it? Not a big deal if I can't... but any help is appreciated.

I like Mint but it's not friendly for my work stuff.

Been thinking about /g/'s opinion on privacy lately.

What's everyone's deal on their privacy?
Do you use social media?
Do you even give a shit about your privacy?
Is mass surveillance ethical?
To what extent do you go to so that you keep your privacy?
Are you socially retarded?

I have been bashing my head against the wall for like 5 hours trying to get this simple Verilog circuit to work.

I know this is low chance, but would anyone be able to help me?

It is pretty simple, 4 inputs into 4 AND gates and then the 4 AND gets input into an OR gate.

I get f = 0 no matter what input I give a, b, x, y.

module exp3veri(x, y, a, b, f);
    input x;
    input y;
    input a;
    input b;
    output f;
     
     wire nXAB = (~x & a & b);
     wire YAnB = (y & a & ~b);
     wire YnAB = (y & ~a & b);
     wire XnAnB = (x & ~a & ~b);
     
     assign f = (nXAB | YAnB | YnAB | XnAnB);


endmodule
