>According to a Consumer Reports survey of over 90,000 tablet and laptop owners, an estimated 25 percent of those with Microsoft Surface devices will experience “problems by the end of the second year of ownership.” This failure rate is the worst in the industry by far among mainstream PC makers, the publication says, and as a result, it is pulling its “recommended” designation for all Surface products.
MS is over.
I hate Microsoft as much as the next guy but these are the people who rated Beats as the best headphones of the year
What do you expect when the Surface's entire philosophy is to be unrepairable?
>the absolute state of The Verge
How many poojeet dollars did the MS CEO pay them for their review?
your opinion about cloudbooks
>32gb disk space
Maybe the future, however there need to be more options, otherwise with none existant product line it cant be used in mainstream. Or atleast one great product and a company that is hammering them to the public, or it will fail in the long run like the chromebook

What is that one in the pic, op?
>>61841776
I dual boot my 256GB SSD with Linux Mint (productivity and browsing) on just 30GB and the rest with Windows 10 (movies, music, and games). I think the cloud meme will catch on eventually, but untill then SSDs will keep getting cheaper, faster, and smaller.
ITT: neat shit you want
preferably usb c related
USB C sex robot
>>61841420

Why are we trying to keep this piece of shit format alive?
Because it's cool
What's wrong with it?
better than gif

Why does Mediatek get so much shit as a smartphone SoC maker?
They're the better choice when compared to Qualcomm. It's been years and Qualcomm still doesn't have anything in response to Miravision.
>>61841004
because qualcomm has a wacky monopoly on LTE basebands that work in the USA
>>61841082
There are Mediatek phones that work in the US though, like the LeEco ones
Because they have no custom ROMs.
>inb4 nobody wants an os made by pajeets xdddd
Stock Android is already made by pajeets.
Is this the future you asked for?
governments will always be ahead of tech manufacturers. nothing surprising. it's interesting though.

I wonder if they saw the CRISPR gif in a DNA strand and were like, "Hey lets REALLY show them that TURTLES KNOW HOW TO PARTY!". Link?

Which one /g/ ?
FAT16
>>61840952
Do you have a lot of nested directories or just many many files? Go for ext4.
Do you have really big files or big ass databases? Go for xfs.
Welcome to the void op.
Ext 4 and you are good to enter the void.
What's /g/'s beef with systemd? It seems modular and capable for a lot of modern needs. Also why do people think theres spyware in it? Its open source (not like I checked or anything) but someone can (and would) know for sure.
>>61840935
/g/ loves systemd its a huge improvement.
>>61840955
I agree that its a huge improvement, but I've seen a lot of hate for it. Usually by people endorsing Gentoo. Maybe its just that the people who like it are more quiet
>>61840989
I'm a huge proponent of Gentoo and Gentoo actually has the best support for upstream systemd so it doesn't really make sense that a real Gentoo user wouldn't be using systemd or would be against it.

You suck
so my multimeter was lost in shipment, sent the seller a message threatening a dispute in a nice way, seems they'll send me another one. so that's cool.
also, anyone buy some nice leather nato with a listing they can recommend? nylon is fine, but would like to have different types of straps for my watch.
>>61840811
Is there anything better or comparable to KZ ZS5s at the same price range or cheaper?
For a normie use of linux / any OS (so web browsing and word processing and other mundane garbage) do the differences between distros matter if the DE you are using is the game?
I fooled around with ubuntu gnome and solus gnome and might try arch with some random DE but from my limited and surface level use, there doesn't seem to be much difference aside from like how packages are installed.
>>61840669
>game
go back to /v/
for a normie os even doesn't matter.
just install xubuntu and it just werks though.
>there doesn't seem to be much difference aside from like how packages are installed.
Correct. That is why they are called distributions.
pebble died for this

I want to punish Google as much as possible for firing the diversity memo guy, but at the same time I find Chrome is the best browser and Google is the best search engine.
So what can I do?
>google is the best search engine
Which other ones have you used for any significant period of time?
I don't have a better alternative, I'm just calling bullshit on you having even tried any others.
i agree google is the best search engine but its still shit, tried for long periods, Bing, DuckDuckShit, Qwant... all worse
