>Instead of punks with studded leather jackets, massive mohawks, and a variety of weapons hidden on their body, we got obese black trannies with bright pink hair.

There is no longer need for rebellion among humans. There is only larping among middle class millenials. And studded leather jackets are rarity even among traditional punks and their offspring relatives goths/coldwavers/deathrockers nowdays, newcomers mostly don't care about edginess of look, as society became "more progressive" we are not seeing as edgy and provocative looks among subcultures as we used to see more or less up to the early '00s. After that point things went downhill.

biyatch please, since the '90s we are observing fall of hacker groups and downfall of holistic approach to computer technology. I can literally speak to "senior programmers" who do not even grasp what the fuck pointer is.....

>It's the same with every generation. Most people get dumber but there are always some that understand the gifts they have been granted and use them.

And this is supposed to be a reason behind the slogan "gen Z will save us all"? Laughable.

We took our anger and disgust and discontent and contempt for, at, and of the world and, instead of expressing it outward through clothing, music, art, movies and literature, turned it inward, letting it boil within us until we had no recourse but to express it through violence, physical and non-physical, self-inflicted and towards others, justified and in cold blood, et cetera et cetera.

Why bother proving to the world you are a punk when you can just look at yourself in a mirror and know the eyes staring back into your own have no future?

>implying neuromancer is the only cyberpunk setting

Cmon man there are a billion takes on whats "cyberpunk" And there are more realistic ones from a more modern era, as well.
In my opinion though, we wont be truly cyberpunk until there is some technology/discovery that can prolong human life to around 200 years. Or perhaps clones or some shit like that. Thats when shit would likely go real fuckin' bad.

Why does it seem that 70% of people on the internet are below this age of 18?

It's illegal in some countries. In fact, just having the software installed without some kind of license can have you fined so do your research. Run scans on your own network and know the difference between a public and private IP. If you're not careful you can end up scanning some military server that logs this stuff.

Spoon feeding is not guiding. Look at all the questions he’s asked that clearly show he’s done zero research on anything he’s been “guided” to look at.

howdy fellas, /k/ommando here, saw this at a starbucks today and couldn't figure out the hell this box was, maybe its a portable battery unit of some kind, but it seemed suspicious as it was connected to two phones and the person using them looked unsavory.
it was in a shady part of town, and when the barista asked the guy using it what it was he was told to fuck all the way off.
The guy proceeded to change outfits multiple times in the bathroom (he had a suitcase with him) and put on a visor whenever he went outside to smoke half a cigarette.
so anyway, what the fuck is this thing? a wireless identity stealer? someone I showed it to said it might be some kind of data siphon or something but i am skeptical. looked vaguely triangular and had some weird metal disk on it
thanks

I really, REALLY want migrate my desktop completely over to some version of GNU/Linux (probably either Kubuntu or Arch), because I fucking despise Windows and FOSS gets me hard. However I play lots of video games and can't currently justify the switch. I've seen the performance enhancements of WINE+DXVK and the new Steam Play with Proton has me hyped, but overall the performance hit when playing games through either of these is still too great in my opinion, especially because I play lots of older online games. How long do you think it will reasonably be before the parity between running games natively on Windows and through WINE+DXVK (mostly) disappears?

Wrong, the fact you got a gold ball to begin with means you are more likely to have chosen the box with 2 rather 1. The 2 silver balls are relevant for this distinction, it makes the question much more intuitive.

Fedora 29 is branched (not released) and it includes the newer XFCE4 4.13 which is pretty far along compared to the older 4.12 that's included in FC 28, Ubuntu and all the distributions. XFCE story is that the Window Manager has been partly written in order to properly support vsync and fix the gigantic screen tearing problem everyone who's ever tried XFCE is so familiar with.

I've been running with XFWMs compositor off and using compton for compositing and had a tear-free perfect setup for a long time. I just tested the new XFWM 4.13 for a while with no compton and XFWMs own bult-in compositor and I am such disappointed. IT STILL HAS MASSIVE SCREEN TEARING. THEY HAVEN'T FIXED IT. THIS IS A TOTAL SCANDAL!!!

Why is this so hard for the XFCE4 developers? This really doesn't require "freesync" or "gsync" or special GPUs or monitors or nothing. Video playback is perfect on both my Intel iGPU-powered laptop and my AMD desktop and HTPC with XFWM+compton. kwin is also fine. That they still can't get this right with XFWMs built-in compositor is a COMPLETE DISAPPOINTMENT. I almost understand why wintoddlers prefer to use the wintendo.

Sounds like it's worth trying this Option "TearFree" "On" and see how that works with XFWM 4.13 when I reboot later. Linus just tagged 4.19rc1 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/ so I'm gonna switch to that once it's done compiling.

>>67326723
no

>>67326788
It's a now bit old compositor for window managers that either don't have built-in compositing or handles compositing badly. A lot of XFCE users - including myself - run it's XFWM window manager with compositing turned off and use compton on top of it so it handles the compositing and buffering and optionally vsync depending on back-end. If you use backend = "glx"; and glx-swap-method = "3"; then it's fine to use vsync = "none"; and leave it up to the driver (on both AMD and Intel). Anyway, it's something you really need to have a smooth XFCE4 experience. I was hoping this would no longer be the case in the future - but it appears that was too much to hope for.

What's a good way to learn hacking
>>
>>67327152
Bruce Lee Quotes. A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.

anyways

get into gnu/linux
start with ubuntu
then use arch
finally get to debian or gentoo
anyways

get familiar with the linux command line etc etc
then learn c
after that learn a bunch of languages
then after that, learn social engineering
