>>98972I flashed by chromebook and installed Linux on it, but for some reason while I can install other operating systems on the shitty soldiered-on SSD it comes with, they aren't bootable on that drive, so I had to make a separate boot partition on a USB drive to get it to work. Am I a HACKERMAN or a dumb ass nigger-cattle?

Chromebooks have really bad hardware and aren't meant to handle computing tasks more taxing than ordering do-nothing formerly free apps on the Google Play store. Impressive ethic and ingenuity on your part but I feel like you'd be left with a device not worth using unless you'd gotten it for free to begin with and had no other option

I had to flash a custom bios to my chromebook in order to install windows on it. Terrible machines.

>Got cheaper, slower internet (ATT "All-Fi" [uh...gay?]) because I thought it would be fast enough for gaming and that I probably wouldn't notice the difference between it and my current overpriced as fr*ck connection
>it isn't fast enough and I do notice the difference. LOL
Do I cancel the new internet immediately and stick with my $115(!) 600mbps connection or do I cancel the 600mbps and then use the slower one for a month or so to try and renegotiate a better deal with the faster provider?
I notice a few 5 second spikes here and there. I mostly game casually anyway so I'm not going to throw a tantrum over it but it does suck and whatever way I go I'm 100% not sticking with it for long.

Sticking with the new connection for long. heh

>>101139>I notice a few 5 second spikes here and there.This is a local latency issue, not a bandwidth issue. Or potentially buggy router software issue. Where is the router physically located?

Make sure the "All-Fi" router is elevated as high as possible, not on the ground, for best range. Make sure there is no metal, including mirrors, directly between the router and your laptop. Reboot/replug the router, maybe it'll automatically give you a less congested Wi-Fi channel. Test with an ethernet cable to rule out a wireless issue.

>>101139Go with whatever is cheapest that does what you want it to do. If the new internet isn't fast enough to do what you want to do, get a connection that is.

>>101147Admittedly I have it on the opposite end of the apartment living room. It only just occurred to me as I read your post that this goofy ass egg thing doesn't need to be anywhere near where the old one is because it doesn't rely on a direct coaxial connection. I guess I'll put it nearer to my desk heh

>>101154K that's odd. Internet has to come from somewhere. A physical analog connection has to go into a modem to convert it to digital signal. But it looks like you've got some kind of wireless repeater set-up. This is trickier to get the best connection, kinda like adjusting the TV antennae in old TVs.
Read this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ATT/comments/w7y4ld/what_is_allfi_and_wiring/You need to experiment placing this All-Fi router (which appears to be more of a a wireless repeater instead of a plain router) around your house, so that you balance between getting as clean of a signal from the outside mesh network and sending as clean of a signal to your laptop. Probably still best to place it somewhere in the same room as your laptop.

Moved the receiver roughly 4 feet above my laptop and maybe just as far across and to the left. Was getting around 35ms in Arms Race on Counter-Strike which doesn't seem too bad; didn't notice any spiking or too odd of behavior but I only played briefly, too. I can't remember what it is normally, I'm sure it's 15ms-maybe even lower-but even still, worth an extra $750 a year? I wish I didn't have my bill for my original service being due TOMORROW so I could have more time to experiment with this. I think I'm going to cancel the old service because one way or another it feels like I can live with whatever this is, at least long enough to renegotiate with the original provider.
I'm over here with 600mbs paying $120 when one of my Canadian friends is getting 3gbs for 70 CAD.

They realized at that moment that the paradigm hadn't shifted as much as they thought, that they wouldn't have public support or even support from most people in their sphere, and that daddy Trump wasn't going to save them. A guy got over 200 years in prison for an accident, and a lot of protestors that day, who couldn't be charged with anything criminal, instead got fucked over by civil litigation. Politics is more cucked now than it was in 2015 and yet we still have retards acting like revolution is right around the corner.

Unless there's an objection from HDV I will modify the early-404 system to be more aggressive on /lounge/ and /new/, mostly to target manually-anchored and locked threads, inversely progressive to their number of replies
e.g. locked/anchored threads under 5 replies get deleted after page 2, under 10 replies deleted after page 3, under 20 replies deleted after page 10, under 300 replies deleted after page 30, and all locked threads regardless of replies deleted after page 30.
Also threads under 10 replies deleted after page 30, plenty of useless Avid threads to be auto-deleted.
