Is Windows 10 worth using now? View Thread Reply Hide GrahamBlanningdale.ffl - Tue, 26 Dec 2017 00:24:15 EST Xzx53TiG No.121495 File: 1514265855271.jpg -(66740B / 65.18KB, 1200x800) Thumbnail displayed, click image for full size. So my hard drive has been fucking up lately so I bought a new one and I'll need to do a fresh install of an OS, I've been using Windows 7 and I like it, but I was wondering if it's a good time to upgrade to Windows 10 yet? I haven't really been keeping up to date with changes they've been making, so if someone could tell me the benefits and the negatives of switching to W10 that'd be real good. Also is it still necessary to change settings to better your privacy while using Win10, if so can someone give me some hints on how to do that. Cheers! 8 posts omitted.

Hey /tech/, I've got two separate but vaguely related questions.I was recently browsing a website to shop for camping trailers, and when I woke up this morning I found out I had been contacted by 3 different sale agencies from the company website I had been on. I only log in to website on Firefox, but I was browsing on Opera and I clear my cookies before every session. I've never logged into anything with the exceptions one of my email accounts from Opera, and even then not often. And yet somehow they got my phone number and that email address. I have ghostery, ublockorigin, disconnect, and privacybadger added to my browsers and none of them detected anything, but when i looked at opera I noticed privacy badger had been disabled and I didn't remember doing that.Now here the thing, and I'm going to be up front with you, I was on a decent amount of ambien last night, and I can't rule out the possibility it was me. But I also can't imagine having coherently typed out BOTH my phone number and my email address, especially since I had said email address open in another tab. I have to suspect somehow they were able to grab that info without me consenting, but that makes me seem paranoid. Anyone have something like this happen to them?How could they have gotten my info?Related, how do websites preserve my logged in passwords? there are a couple websites I log into and I notice when I clear my cookies and delete my temp files, the next time I go to those pages I might not be logged in BUT my account/password are still pre-typed... so obviously it remember me somehow. How? Is there a local component I've missed and failed to make part of my delete cycle, or is it just that my default IP is now stored by that website?Thanks for any help understanding 4 posts and 1 images omitted.

Sooooup /tech/?After Windows 7 committing suicide like 40 fucking times between 3-4 oem versions on shitty laptop pawnshop specials, I've said fuck it and just want to clone 1 fresh Windows 7 install to 4 or 5 hard drives. I don't give a fuck about licensing and their stupid windows genuine shit always ends up breaking and annoying the fuck out of me anyways. If I were to just stop dealing with oem factory resets, lost passwords, and shit and just pop new hard drives into my cheap computers; would that work if they are system image cloned from 1 "master" clean install that is never used? I know they won't be activated and would need whatever daz loader that exists now to get rid of all the other black screen nagging shit but would the OS work or is there some blocker programmed in to keep from raid duplication or creating multiple system images? I've googlefu'd and failed, I don't see an answer if you can clone to separate hard drives without the host drive baleeting itself. I really just want to have dual boot Windows 7/8/10 on my other computers who all started out as OEM versions anyways but ended up running various linux distro's. Thanks hiffweBonus: Didn't daz loader get turned into malware? Is that also only for cracked versions or just any windows genuine spam? 6 posts omitted.

Hey anons, there's a way to startx automatically on login? I've read that you have to modify /etc/inittab, but I don't have it. I also couldn't find ~/.bash_profile nor /etc/systemd/system/getty@tty1.service.d/override.conf. >> EdwinPunningbit.wsz - Tue, 16 Jan 2018 22:06:48 EST Bu5RmgtJ No.121536 Reply It's not uncommon for config files to not exist until you create them. If you use bash, I would recommend doing this through .bash_profile >> MartinMurdshaw.lit - Thu, 18 Jan 2018 00:23:59 EST vpfE8QdL No.121538 Reply i think you have to enable it as a service in some initgdm start

Spectre effects every x86 processor made by AMD and Intel over the past decade so there really isn't a lot you can do to be proactive about it besides taking your device offline until it's safe.

Okay so can you tell me what is broken here?I was playing some games on my desktop, suddenly the monitor goes blank and white. Teamspeak is still working though so i assume it's the monitor.I restarted and it was still white as soon as i turned on the monitor with no monitor splash screen, I tired multiple cables etc. I also connected a laptop to the monitor and i only got the white screen again.I grabbed an old TV which has VGA / HDMI input, and tried to connect the pc to that instead however although the TV recognises something is attached there is no display only a black screen. I connected a laptop to this TV via HDMI and then VGA and both displayed perfectly fine. Have i somehow fried both the monitor and the PC? I mean teamspeak was still working after the screen died but the fact that i cant get any image out of the PC on a separate display is concerning me.Sorry for the shit thread, i'm just a bit frustrated. 1 posts omitted.
