how many USB Ports (normal ones, 2.0/3.0, none of that apple shit) does Sup Forums think a laptop should have to be practical?
I usually have 7 devices plugged in at all times so i think it should be 7, but 6 would also be acceptable

Wouldn't you be better off with a desktop if you neet so many peripherals?

Welcome to real life faggot

>I usually have 7 devices plugged in at all times so i think it should be 7, but 6 would also be acceptable
nigga what the fuck
A laptop should have 4 USB ports, three USB3.1 and one 2.0 for booting issues

Just get a desktop

...

>7 usb devices at all times
literally what the fug. Thats a constant minimum drain of 3.5 amp/hours on your battery, more if any are usb3.0

If you need that many USB devices on a laptop just get a usb hub.

I have 1x 3.0 and 2x 2.0 and I have never found myself needing any more

That's not how electronics work you retard

3 USB 2, 2 USB 3.0, and 1USB 3.1 type C
>if need more space for other IO, get rid of USB 2 and add another USB 3

7? What do you have user?
I think 4. USB mouse, USB Mass storage device, USB powered fans for the laptop, spare for various purposes.

As much as I hate to agree with the app-holes, they got it right. One port is fine. A laptop's primary purpose is to be portable. On the go, you're not likely to be plugging in more than a flash drive or something. When you get back to your home or office and you want to use an external keyboard, a non-bluetooth mouse, an external hard drive, and all the other various and sundry things you see a need to have, use a hub. Literal one wire hookup for coming back to or leaving home base.

My ideal (in the current generation at least) is 1 USB 2.0, 1 USB 3.1 (regular connection), 1 USB 3.1 (USB C connection), and 1 or more Thunderbolt 3 (which use USB C connector)

>he's convinced it's not true

Mine's got two USB 2.0 ports, one eSATAp port, and two USB 3.0 ports. I'm pretty content with that selection.

You cant travel around comfortably with a desktop every month or so
needs more 2.0
You cant travel around comfortably with a desktop every month or so
You cant just use it as a portable device if you have to, doesn't mean i do often, but i can
why would anyone use laptop off their battery? it limits performance and usb hub is just extra money, extra hassle
>type c
cancer
>what do you have?
Keyboard
Mouse
PS4 Controller/Phone/Tablet charging
External Cooler Stand
USB DAC/AMP
Webcam
USB Drive/USB HDD/SSD

>bonus
Ethernet most of the time at home/at uni
HDMI at home, 3.5mm jack for speakers, another one for a microphone and 2 extra still left unused

>4
most laptop keyboards are unusable, i can only type on mechanical these days so i always bring my cherry mx blue to every CS lecture/seminar

Sup Forums's SJW/Feminism bogeyman does not exist, all liberal media is written by Sup Forumsfags to exaggerate things and turn people on liberals, the only time anyone ever hears about SJWs it's when Sup Forums rams it down our throat, then it became hip and edgy and we have a literal clown in office instead of Bernie who'd be like Stallman, but in office, but instead we have literal monopolies crack down on the government to get rid of consumer protection laws like net neutrality.

Get a laptop with a dock.

>how many USB Ports (normal ones, 2.0/3.0, none of that apple shit) does Sup Forums think a laptop should have to be practical?
however many that can reasonable fit on the chasis, so, about 20

Four thunderbolt 3 ports and an SD card slot. 2.0 is fucking terrible for modern transfer speeds. I cannot wait for Intel to make it royalty free so it can become the new standard and we can dump this whole confusing "USB 3.0 is now 3.1 Gen 1 and 3.1 became 3.1 Gen 2 and then there's Thunderbolt 3 in the mix and the USB-C port and good luck making sense of all this bullshit on every device you want to buy" world.

Everything will be better when we're all on Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C.

>2.0 is fucking terrible for modern transfer speeds.
it is but many computers wont boot from anything above 2.0. There should be at least one for legacy use.

you must be trolling aren't you or never travelling. Single laptop could power 2 powerbank with a 4 phones connected/whole family phone can be charged i dunno how many power outlet your hotel have.

>it is but many computers wont boot from anything above 2.0

Are you clueless or still just living in 2013?

>480mbit/s
I bet your shitty American internet connection is still slower than this.

i travel more than you do
i don't stay in hotels though
i don't use my laptop on the go because i have a fucking smartphone for that

>i don't use my laptop on the go because i have a fucking smartphone
See most people aren't into masochism though

>not getting a mini usb keyboard for your android smartphone/tablet and basically using it like the mini computer it is
I'm not saying it's great, but it beats carrying around a fucking laptop who's battery runs out like in 20 minutes unless you really limit your usage to text editing without a GUI

My phone already has a keyboard, if I'm going to carry a larger one I may as well carry a screen that goes with it, in other words, a laptop.
>a fucking laptop who's battery runs out like in 20 minutes
this isn't an issue if you use a laptop that was made this century.

>this isn't an issue
it is if you use a laptop that has a real fucking GPU and CPU and not some ultrabook joke that won't run shit
>laptop is a larger phone
that's a tablet, not a laptop

>it is if you use a laptop that has a real fucking GPU and CPU and not some ultrabook joke that won't run shit
Ultrabooks are more than enough, laptops aren't meant to replace desktops.
>>laptop is a larger phone
You get what I'm saying, you autistic pedant.

>laptops aren't meant to replace desktops
but they are, why have 2 device when 1 can satisfy both needs?
Ultrabooks are shit, lacking in performance and way too overpriced for the type of performance they give out. There's no point in owning a device with a full desktop OS if it doesn't perform well enough to do most of the tasks efficiently, better get something that doesn't have a full desktop OS but have much better overall performance thanks to optimization.

tl;dr: if you have less than 8GB VRAM in your laptop, it's not worth it

>but they are, why have 2 device when 1 can satisfy both needs?
Sounds like you're talking about a mobile workstation. I'm talking about a laptop.
>tl;dr: if you have less than 8GB VRAM in your laptop, it's not worth it

>all liberal media is written by Sup Forumsfags to exaggerate things and turn people on liberals
Yet the same edia was shown to take money from the DNC
>we have a literal clown in office instead of Bernie who'd be like Stallman
>Implying an old socialist who clearly doesn't understand economics (else they wouldn't be a socialist in the first place) would actually do a better job than even the most incompetent of neoliberals
Yeah, there's a reason every socialist state collapsed: as it turns out, using money from taxes to pay for social programs instead of investing in infrastructure in the economy tends to make the economy collapse. That's why Venezuela is slowly becoming a failed state and even China is becoming more capitalistic (albeit with a mixed model) along with Vietnam and even India.

>not buying external cooler fan stand for your laptop
are YOU retarded?

There is a reason every socialist state collapsed
it was ruled by greedy capitalist scum
>take money from the DNC
>implying the "DNC" isn't a bunch of right-wingers looking to halt progress, gain money by exploiting people, encouraging race, gender and class divide by writing fake news about the left wing so they can then have an easy time attacking it and showing people that they're better, when in reality, it's the same jews and it's all part of a plan

>Sup Forums's SJW/Feminism bogeyman does not exist, all liberal media is written by Sup Forumsfags to exaggerate things and turn people on liberals
What the fuck are you smoking?

I've never used more than 3 at one time but I'd say 4-5 is enough for most people

>There is a reason every socialist state collapsed

True, every socialist state collapsed because the people that were supposed to distribute the wealth took it instead and the model didn't work in the first place. If some thing fails essentially every time because wasting large sums of money on social programs (a core tenet of socialism) is not conducive to building up the infrastructure needed to build and/or sustain an economy along with the inevitable corruption at the top and very possible risk of large loss of human life.

> writing fake news about the left wing
No the neoliberals coopted the left into talking about pointless social issues that encourages a gender, race and class divide by essentially creating a caste system based on this and the principle of "privilege" , sort of like the neoconservatives coopted the right and essentially turned the Republican Party from something Goldwater-esqe and more paleoconservative to a group of crazed evangelicals talking about turning the Republic into a Christian theocracy. This way, stupid social issues become a big deal and bigger issues like the economy,the legality of the drug war, NSA-style surveillance, blatant corruption, whether we're bombing a country illegally or funding a group of terrorists to topple a regime (issues that these groups don't want you to know you're being screwed on) go in the background and rarely addressed in full. You're right about neoliberals having very little difference from their neoconservative counterparts though, although they still are left-wing (barely) even if you don't like them, just like neoconservatives are right-wing(again, barely).

No one cares

>collapsed because of shitty people
>the model didn't work in the first place
you're the reason

>stupid social issues
stopped reading right there, white straight middle class male detected.

>implying you're not a white straight middle class male (or xirfem) as well

i grew up poor and i can tell you that your shit will not help, it will make things worse

I'd say four is the minimum, but more isn't bad
either way, there are still USB-hubs, so...

>white straight middle class male detected.

You say this like it's a bad thing, are people supposed to feel bad because they have a certain skin colour or are of a certain sexual orientation according to you?

You're not supposed to feel bad
but you shouldn't really have a say in how society works because your life is perfect already, you have nothing to complain about, and therefore you resent change. Besides, you are the majority, no matter how strongly the rest of the country feels about some issue, as long as white males are the majority, they can easily outvote everyone else no matter what. It may be equal to have one vote per person, but it still creates inequities, at least until the actual source, the actual problem is resolved.

>implying
poor? like American poor?
>hurr my family only owns 2 cars and both my parents work, jeez poor me, they can only afford two higher educations! Rreeeeee

>You don't know shit about living in an authoritarian extreme right wing anarcho capitalist oppression machine that is the United States.
yeah, alright mate.

>shitty socialist scum who can't get over greed like that user are the reason socialism will always fail, because human nature is a bitch along with a lack of understanding of basic economic concepts
FTFY
A more realistic

* A more realistic take on why socialism has and will never work
Now stop shitting up this thread.

Pretty accurate actually.
Only feminists are so deluded by their arrogance and self-importance that they would believe a wife, a girlfriend, sisters, or any female loved ones would choose some random chucklefuck feminist over the man they are in a good relationship with.
The top richest people in the world are all married and all those women need to do is sign a single paper to magically turn over the majority of the world's wealth into "feminist" hands via divorce.
Doesn't happen, because families are families and feminist is retardism.

>Blue-collar workers in the Rustbelt which has gone under a massive economic downturn in the region have a perfect life where they have to work three jobs to get the same amount of money one would hand them 20 years ago. They have nothing to complain about and they resent change for no good reason, eve though these are very good reasons to get frustrated and angry, especially when there's an opioid epidemic that's hitting your small town at the same time too. Nah, they're just mad because they're FUCKING WHITE MALES
And I thought snake-handling, Jesus-freak, demon-casting evangelicals were out-of-touch with reality.

What constitutes an evangelical?
- Moral Superiority Complex
- Arbitrary rules and principles that are to be treated and enforced with absolutism, while disregarding relativism and subjectivism as heresy
- The obsession of spreading the ideology like a disease whether by force or trickery
- Complete denouncement of any moderation and centrism as heresy and blasphemy
- Messiah complex/Savior complex; the obsession of curing people out of problems you arbitrarily decide exist when they don't in most cases
- The obsession of regulating and controlling other people's lives to the most core level such as sex
- Obsession over fighting an imaginary evil entity which doesn't have a face and can't be specifically targeted, but which is obscure enough that you can paint anyone or anything as being infected by it if you wish to do so for ulterior motives and furthering your agenda

Well lookie here, evangelism and feminism turned out to be the same shit.

>but you shouldn't really have a say in how society works
>because of your skin colour

You are racist scum , your opinion is worthless

Ding Ding Ding
We have a winner!!!
But it goes further than feminism really. These "Social Justice" types all have the same characteristics as your evangelical.

Never used more than two, but just in case at least 3 or 4.

fuck off you kike loving faggot

do the world a favor and literally kys

it's funny how the feminists turned out just like their daddy they had problems with was: oppressive ignorant and bigoted.

This answer is correct.
OP needs a desktop for all the external drives of gay porn you're trying to access.
Literally get a better laptop to cut down on devices

As much as a desktop, so 6.
Unless it's a laptop specifically designed to be as minimalistic and lightweight as possible then I guess 2-3 is fine (assuming separate SD card reader ofc).

0 everything should be wireless by now what is bluetooth

>unironically supporting a Jew economist whose retarded idea led to authoritarian regimes responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people

it's people like you abusing it

*hundreds of millions

a really shitty piece of tech?
this
i don't know a laptop that comes with a mouse built in

whatever you say, David

Again, you are racist scum

And you are a simpleton that thinks all the worlds problems can be factored down to a couple of variables: skin color and sexual orientation.

lets hope you never get into a position where you can exercise your extreme worldview and inflict harm upon others, just because they might have a certain skin colour or sexual orientation.

realising that some hairy femos are retarded made you into a neo nazi sympathiser? you realise that most of those guys who are neo nazi and most posters on here would have been consider degenerate by the real nazi regime right?

>le raciss cuz i don't like to admit it
Get this, white people aren't worse for being white, they aren't guilty of anything, sins of the father don't go onto the son, i don't think that it's okay to make white people feel guilty for being white, they are equal.
However, they do have it better off than most by not facing racism and oppression, therefore they just can't have that much of a say in how society works because they don't know how society works, it's like playing a game on easy mode and not learning all the mechanics, giving it a high score without ever knowing that some of the mechanics are broken.
If you really don't understand this, you're lost.

No they don't, specifically because of racist faggots like you
Yes, I am aware. Kill it all with fire

largest percentage of poor people on benefits is white people, by a large margin, you entitled piece of shit

No matter how you try to spin it you're racist scum.

And the irony is that inside your twisted mind you probably think what you are suggesting is right.

You are honestly suggesting we start treating people differently because of their skin color or sexual orientation because of the aggregate result of the group they belong to and not the individual you are actualy talking to.

It's disgusting, stupid, close minded and you should be ashamed

Absolutely they do
because of racist fags like you
lmaoing @ your life den friend :^)
no u
Of fucking course i'm right, democarcy is retarded
for example:
99% of the population of a country is cis
trans people who make up 1% of the population are making cis people uncomfortable
the majority (cis people) votes trans people to be executed/have their human rights
stolen/whatever
all trans people and LGBT people and other minorities vote against this
democracy does it's thing
majority wins
all trans people are executed

and this is okay, because cis people don't care, as long as it doesn't impact their lives because they can't sympathize with the oppressed since they've never been oppressed

to fix this, the cis population would only have 50% of the say, therefore 99% of the population would be representative of 50% of the votes while the other half being trans people's votes
and that's how a real equal society would work, at the very least until there's no longer a distinction between cis/trans people


this example could also be applied to any minority, it would work by race in the same fashion until there's no longer a division by race, which won't happen until white people understand that black people weren't treated equally and didn't have perfect lives until BLM and other protests, that's why they have started in the first place,
another reason for picking trans people for this example is because it's literally what happened with the nc bathroom bill, lots of cis people didn't know the importance of it and thought their opinion on the issue matters, but in reality, they're nobody to decide what's right and wrong for another group of people, they're not gods or above in society just because they're the majority

And if you don't understand this, you are disgusting, stupid, close minded and you should be ashamed.

Remember to sage polshit

>tumblr having field day

go be triggered somewhere else

>cis
I always laugh when I hear this name

It's so funny that you actualy came up with a name for someone who is just normal.

And that's it's always used in a context where it sounds like a negative.

That is reality these days, people should be ashamed if they are normal and comfortable.

This stuff really is the world turned on its head.

Also trans people don't make up1% of the population, more like 0,01% and even that is being generous

so glad people like you don't have any power here any longer. Please continue suiciding the DNC, kthx

Lmao OP getting BTFO, what a retard

end thyself

please go back to Sup Forums and stay there

>normal
you are the problem
>don't make up 1%
yeah, they make up more worldwide, but in America, the small fraction of trans people that ended up in the census made up 0.6% thinkprogress.org/the-american-transgender-population-is-larger-than-we-thought-it-was-ab83126f33a, and the real number, with all the closeted trans people, stealthy trans people, self-medders, and even just passable trans people is probably more like 2% or 4%, since thanks to your oppression, trans people tend to not be so open about being trans, so gtfo
trans people aren't "not normal"
and cis people aren't "normal"
we are all just people, there's no way to be "normal" in these circumstances since all options are normal.
Like Black People and White People, both are still people, at least most white people are, maybe you're not civilized enough to be considered human if in 2017 you still think there's anything wrong with calling cis people - cis people.
>this stuff really is the world turned on its head
Yeah, people like you also thought ending slavery was wrong back then
this is why nobody likes you, history has proven time and time again that the reason we can't have nice things is people like you.
>people should be ashamed if they are normal
again, nobody should be ashamed of anything
i never said that, stop pulling this out of your insecure ass, Sup Forums. I'm all for everyone being open and feeling good about themselves, cis people and trans people included.
But you gotta understand, you started oppressing us, therefore it's only fair we don't like your kind, you think you people have any sort of authority to decide what happens to us when trans people should not have people who don't even know what it's like to be a minority nevermind being trans deciding our fate without our input.

this is some good bait

>Sup Forums raiding other boards again
please go away
Sup Forums is a far-left website, at least it was before you ruined it

>you are the problem
I am a problem because I'm normal?

LMAO

you are the problem because you consider trans people to be not normal and yourself to be normal
you are the reason the social barrier and divide exists

>Yeah, people like you also thought ending slavery was wrong back then
>equating being normal to slavery

What a twisted individual you are

3 minimum, 4 is a good amount desu. any more than that and its just taking up room - and you shouldnt need more than 4 devices plugged in at once if you have a laptop desu

To call something that occurs in 0,001% of all cases normal would literally make the word normal meaningless.

It would stop to have any meaning

go back to redddit you tremendous faggot

There's a reason a large portion of those "people" attempt suicide

>and even just passable trans people is probably more like 2% or 4%
its amazing that people actually think that.

This guy is fucking retarded

again, you and your obsession with normalcy is the problem
there's nothing wrong with being "normal" and there's nothing wrong with being what the alt-right defines as "not normal", such as being black or trans or gay or whatever.
Both of those are normal, but people who claim themselves to be normal yet say that minorities aren't because they are minorities is only enforcing more unnecessary oppression on those people for no reason, and why? because you're resent to change, everything has always been good for white people, so they never felt like changing anything, and that's why you will be forever holding humanity back until you, not as a race, but you as in the ideology you hold of priding yourself on being normal and white and rich and lucky and successful will be eradicated forever.
Yeah the reason is "people" like you.
And you too.
Imagine if you were trans
and the entire world hated you
your parents hated you
it was hard to find friends and people to relate to
so you hide your identity and spend money to look as passable as possible and pretend to be cis
Not so far-fetched once you imagine all that.
Same with trans-related suicides, since being trans is 99% nature, so you are either born trans or you're not, in any case, trans people will commit suicide before they even transition, or during it, at which point it simply won't be counted as a trans-related suicide, and they won't ever be considered a trans person who lived. It makes perfect sense to everyone who isn't a total shithead.

But he's righ tho...

When the real sexists strated to disappear from the society the feminists had to invent this unbeatable ghost named patriarchy / institutionalised sexism that they can continue with their movement.

The 21st centure feminism is dependant to "patriarchy".

No one can attack patriarchy and it's always going to be there as long as feminists say it is.

Patriarchy is a ghost that you can fight forever as long as you say it's there.
