Here on uni

r9 290 fits your budget perfectly, the 970 is also an option if you don't mind going a little bit over your budget. But may I ask you why "What nvidia gpu?" Fanboyism?

They should do a Channelsuperfun video, my boss/employee does my makeup challenge!

1) how much more work do you get compared to GCSE/A-level and is it stressful Not really much more. 2) do any of you do Computer Science and if so, what is it like, if not, then tell me what u do anyway and what it is like at university? University is awesome, no obligations the only things that are compulsory are some lab sessions and the exams. So you can choose the way you study you like. 3) what is the accommodation like? Don't know, still living with my parents at a 15 min drive from uni. 4) How much free time do you get for yourself and friends I'm around 40-45h a week occupied with university stuff. So a lot of time, mabye even more than on High school.

I'll just leave this here, berkel is even more awesome then I thought he already was... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJDKwPYD4XA

I used "I need it for programmnig" as an excuse to buy one. So I could learn Assembly for ARM but I could also just have used my phone for that.... However raspi is great when you want to do things with servo's or led's or something. But if that is the main purpose I would recommend a arduino.

In some countries they are not allowed to block users from certain ports or protocols, at least here in the Netherlands they aren't I believe... You could essentially see that as some kind of censorship since p2p itself is not really illegal. It's just the fact that a lot of content shared via p2p is copyrighted in some way. But same goes for that, laws for seeding and providing services like the piratebay does are different per country.

Before you post we already knew that please read the (full) article first... Also I know some guys of the research team(not really well but still), really cool guys by the way.

He's fucking got 2 billion or something. If you buy a 70Million house, you still have 2 billion, if you get what I mean. After all who cares, let this guy do his thing, give him some privacy. I don't care what he does with his money (well not if he spends it all on drugs or something...) But I Still want 0x10c

Os? Assuming you're on windows (Its easy to find on osx and linux users wouldn't ask a question like this )you could just select all the files you want to edit,right click edit, type in the name, press enter and it automagically renames all the selected files to the name you entered followed by " (n)" where n is the number of the file. (I'm sorry for my windows being Dutch) This works on win 7 so I'm sure it works on win 8.x to. edit: added description, pictures. Ofcourse you could also write your own simple program in java (5 lines or so). Get all files in the directory and iterate over them. @lubblig

Start at something like 4,3Ghz@1.275V or something. Stresstest it if it becomes unstable lower the multiplier or raise the voltage (not above 1.3-1.325 with that cooler I think) if it becomes to hot but its still stable (I bet this is not going to happen but still) lower the voltage untill it becomes unstable. If it doesn't become too hot or unstable raise the multiplier some more. I've got mine currently running at 4,4Ghz@1.291V But I got it stable at 4.9Ghz@1.375V but I didn't feel comfortable with such a high voltage on my cpu and I didn't need the extra Ghz it was just for fun.

Ducky master race!

For code (since this is the programming subforum) Vim ofcourse ^^ But sublime text or notepad++ are both great too.

I can't disagree with that.

Well but as you say apart from the readability its pretty similar to assembly. The reason why (most people) learn it and universities teach it is to learn about the concepts behind it... Not really to be an excellent assembly/machine code programmer But I must agree its really hard to start programming in Machine code (and assembly) when you have no programming experience but if you've got a great understanding about how a computer works it really is doable.

We had Java and x86 Assembly simultaneously the first 3 months I would suggest Java or Python. Oh and brainf*ck ofcourse that essential...

I like your style, no do it in assembly Checkout the program solving thread(s)!

This the most common fucking misconception there is. In fact there does not change a lot, if you look at for example Java, apart from some (but not major) new features it is about thesame as the java 10 or 15 years ago. And we still use thesame concepts in computers that we used when the first desktops for home release got on the marked. You only have to make sure you keep up with new things and stuff after you have taken classes but its just bullshit stuff changes so fast that there is no point in taking classes... Ofcourse computer science changes a little bit more then studies like History (changes more then you would think) or Biology stuff. Just do some reading first on internet "Where to start" is not a good question....

Damnit missed it I'm gonna watch it back

They probably make some money on it though, the miners payed for most of the designing costs and costs for the manufacturing plant already... They already sold a lot more then they expected. A bit of silicon doesn't cost as much. And even if tey don't make a lot on it they will have to lower the pricing on those things because nividia simply has/had much better high end performance/dollar atm...

Well you're almost done, just a year of doing nothing left in 6vwo (that's what I did atleast ) its almost only repeating thesame stuff from 4vwo and 5vwo

Yeah I'm in my first year, I'm in the last week of my semester right now so the "tentamens"(/exams?) are this week. What you do varies very very much for each subject. Calculus for example is just a teacher makes some example exercises on a blackboard and you just have to make exercises yourself and you've got a couple of exams. OOP is some lectures (hoorcolleges) and a couple of hours of lab each week where you get a simple programming task you need to complete and have checked by a Lab assistant (usually higher years). I've done all the exercises at home. And I went only a couple of times to have them checked (not checked == failed for the course). The organization of the course Computer organization is a bit more complex the course is "gamified" as my teacher calls it. You can get points by doing a lot of different things for example answering a question or asking a good question during a lecture (50points), making exersizes about the theory in the book, or doing extra things in the lab for Computer organization, (assembly) I made a brainf*ck interpreter for example (check the 100line challenge thread) and ofcourse you can earn points answering questions correct at the exams (300 each). So you can get points by learning in the way you like to learn. (10.000=grade 10) I think I got a 10 for this subject About the other courses this year I cannot say a lot yet but if you ask me in a couple of weeks/months again I might be able to give you some more information.

Cool guys don't look at movies or play games I always sing this song when I blow a tank up with jeepstuff in battlefield 4

Cool guys don't look at explosions!

Thats really hard to tell since I'm only just 3 months in. But you can find the program of the study (at Tu Delft) somewhere on the internet I think. We have a OOP project in 2nd quarter for example. We don't know the exact subject yet however last year the assignment was to build a spreadsheet program (so after 3 months in) with a group of around 4 persons I think. Also I heard some higher year students say the subjects don't necessarily get harder the more you advance in the study. Which you could see as a good or a bad thing. What do you exactly mean about classes and subjects? Do you mean the courses, so like Calculus, Object oriented programming, Redeneren & logica and stuff like that? We will also be doing some bot programming for unreal tournament bots and there will be a smal tournament between groups later this year for example.
