  1. It wipes EVERYTHING on your computer, including storage devices attached to it. I believe it can also brick your computer as a result of deleting some UEFI files as shown in this article, correct me if I'm wrong: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=UEFI-rm-root-directory

  3. As the title says: Can you tell the difference between 320kbps mp3 and lossless (e.g FLAC, etc) with normal headphones? http://www.strawpoll.me/11393485 By normal I mean nothing extremely expensive, or "audiophile quality".

    Hey guys, I'm learning to program and want to start a new project to apply some skills, but I'm not sure where to start. I'm thinking either an android app or maybe some CLI app, but other than that I'm stuck. Any ideas for what to do? Cheers
  5. If you have a W10 pro you can disable automatic updates and install them yourself. Otherwise, a workaround is setting your connection to 'metered' which stops them from automatically downloading
  6. It looks like you have a very old version of linux mint. Perhaps try updating mint and firefox to a newer version. Gmail and yahoo support current versions of firefox on every operating system. If you need to recover your password, I would advise either using a live CD to chroot in to change it or follow the guide you are currently using. That said, you should be able to update using sudo as opposed to using a root password.
