What's a good enclosure for a DVD burner to take it from PC to external? I don't care about size or ugly factor, just want it to work. Wondering if it's better to buy a separate one or fit in the desktop's 5.25" beasty.

I'm same fagging but the USB 3 enclosures are about as expensive as buying a thinline external burner. USB 2.0 burner enclosures are like $18.

With it's black lifeless eyes, it's bald dome, the unnerving smile, the careful lighting showcasing moobs, slouching on the floor.

How does one make their own non-proprietary HDD, motherboard and CPU?

Because a system is only as free as the hardware it's ran on. No point running freedom Gentoo on non-free hardware that has proprietary closed source hardware.

The makers of uTorrent left after it got bought by BitTorrent and made an identical copy of uTorrent when it was good called qbitTorrent. That was in 2011, you should give it a try.

Is C still wortlh learning nowadays?

I'm studying CS but my uni's program only teaches you Python, Java and C++ so i figured I'd try to start learning C on my own over the winter break.

I already have a decent grasp on Python and Java and have always heard all the real enlightened big brain neProidians learn C to understand how a computer works beter since it's "close to the metal" unlike Python and Java but even starting out with Learn C the Hard Way, Zed Shaw says that C is a fundamentally flawed language and has many errors that later languages fixed into non-issues.

Should I keep going

>>107708080
If you don't wanna learn to code, fine by me, but you shouldn't try to discourage others from learning to code. People learn plenty of "useless" stuff, like Akkadan and topology just for fun or as time-wasting pursuits. There can be plenty of reasons for learning something that requires some mental effort besides making money, and learning something simply for the sake of exercising your cognitive powers is more than a good reason in and of itself.
>>
>>107708108
Fair enough, I was just being realistic with OP.
>>
>>107707988
You're wasting your time. Rustrannies believe if you write C, for any reason, you are stupid and evil.
>>
>>107702118
Yes, you should learn C, despite its flaws, because it's the lingua franca of programming.

It's true that high bit rate 1080p is plenty for video. I have a 4K 32" monitor and 1080p BR rips look great. Good 4K video is better obviously but I'll take good 1080p over bitstarved 4K.
>all movies are 1080p on blu ray
This isn't really true. 4K Blu-Rays have been around for nearly 10 years now.
>why should not i buy 27 inch 1080p
Because at typical monitor viewing distances and assuming typical eyesight, you'll see chunky pixels and text will look like shit.
If you're using it as a small budget TV from a further distance then whatever.

I have spent couple of days working on my setup, translating my keyboard shortcuts to cwm. I sort of like it. I use a script to center windows with xdotool.
It is also somewhat picky with games. Mouse focus does not work properly. Workaround is to use gamescope but then some other things will get broken (not cwm issue but in general) - when using gamescope --force-grab-cursor, mouse cursor speed isn't 1:1 and it feels like there is acceleration or something. It can be compensated by using -s 0.9 or something but it still isn't exactly the same as raw mouse input would be... Gamescope will coincidentally break 'setxkbmap', I like to switch caps lock and esc but Gamescope forces them back.
Fix for this is to use 'xremap' but this is a daemon and needs root permissions.
Gamescope is actually pretty shitty all things considered.
>>
>>107705094
Grub has some advantages over other bootloaders. The main one being that it can read btrfs and ext4 partitions so that you dont have to keep your kernels on the fat32 efi partition
>>
>>107708358
I have no idea about gamescope as I very rarely play games, but do you have setxkbmap in your .xinitrc/.xsession? Or in xorg.conf.d?
Try make a file /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "default-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbLayout" "your language"
EndSection
>>
what is the easiest way to package an app so it doesn't ever break when i update things.

and on another note, can someone explain how this scorched earth way of developing has become accepted in the linux space?
