    Cieronph got a reaction from Arcanekitten in i'm lookking for cheap used gpu   
    To be honest for $40 you may as well not bother looking, if your after 200+ fps in games. Your probably better of saving a little and getting something around the $150, thats when the gpu you buy will actually make any difference

    Cieronph got a reaction from a7mddiaa in what do i need to learn to become a full stack web developer   
    As others have said start small. Web languages are a great way to introduce yourself to coding, they are free form and interpreted, meaning they can be messy and you dont need to compile your code every time you want to see if the thing you changed worked. I personally started out trying to copy the design of a website (business ones are usually great to begin with, because there mainly text and images but often have some tricky formatting that takes a while to get perfect). After that do the same website again but make it dynamic so it scales with window size and works on all displays. After youve done that a few times you may be getting a bit tired of it, so start thinking about javascript (i know this is a bit old now but jQuery imo is still a great way to start) and try to make you website do some cool animations or stuff like that. Then finally start to look into PHP, SQL etc how can you make your website functional and do things. You'll find by then end you will have a website that works, but the code will be a god awful mess. This is when you need to consolidate what you've done. As others have said learn coding standards and be strict with yourself to add comments etc, It sounds silly but getting a job as a developer can often be the difference between clean code and messy stuff. Once you've watch some stuff on coding standards and how to keep code clean, re-write the same site again, make it perfect, make the SQL as efficient as you can. Then repeat. It will take time, and sometimes you wont feel like getting home and doing code, my advice dont... Do it when you feel motivated to do so, and make sure you always end your coding sessions on a succes (dont leave a piece of code broken because your stuck on it, you wont want to return to it EVER). The only other thing i would say is as you advance i would definately recommend playing with strict format complied languages, they will really force you to learn clean code and can often be transferred into web stuff.
     
    Good luck !!

    I suppose it's better than touchID, where they could scrape your fingerprint right off of the device itself. I assume this requires some sort of scan of the owner's face, which is not necessarily easy to obtain.

    Cieronph got a reaction from Totalschaden1997 in Home server from Laptop.   
    Anything in theory can be a server, a server is simply a computer which is connected to by clients. With regards to what you actually want to do with it, if you want something super simple that acts as a "file server" you could just set-up a shared network drive on windows within a home/work-group and use that to store files. I mean realistically it may be better as a backup (as it wouldn't be in raid 1 or anything like that) and would be super simple to do at no extra cost. Erm with regards to wireless or wired, while it could be done wirelessly it would make much more sense to plug a ethernet connection in to speed up the connection and make it more consistent. 
    My final thought would be what your intentions are in doing this, if its simply to have some fun and learn some things then this is great, if you want something to be an actual file server it may be better to look at a linux box or something like that.

    Cieronph got a reaction from seduce_me in Which microphone for streaming?   
    So im in no way an audio buff, like im really not, but i did spend about £250 GBP on an audio setup a few years back, while it sounds great in prerecorded stuff after some post work, the background noise from a condenser unless you're face is literally in it, is noticeable and not something which I would recommend. If your only starting out my suggestion would be dont waste your money on a condenser setup with pre-amp etc (which realistically is probably going to add up over $100), pic up a decent headset with a good quality inbuilt mic. That will get you started, then as your audience grows you can invest in better gear. 
     
    Anyway like i said im really not that experienced in audio stuff, but that would be my opinion on that sort of thing from my limited experience.
