A friend asked for help building a new pc from scratch. I haven't done a scratch build in forever, from a little research and digging I tossed this together for him on PC Partspicker.

Any pants on head retarded choices? Bear in mind his budget is sub 1k, I don't think he'd be looking for 4K resolution yet, so 4k performance isn't really a factor.

I'm looking for an upgrade to my Asus T100. Can someone recommend me the best lightweight, under 13" hybrid Laptop/Tablet for around £500?
I'm leaning towards the Lenovo Yoga 700 because it's fanless and shit and won't warm up my lap whilst I'm using it but just wondering if the performance might be a bit shit as a result.

Well unlike earlier, it is only showing the display card, and the renderer tab is missing.

Previously, the problem was that I could get the game to run on the IGPU or the GPU when one or the other was disabled. When I enable both of them I get these d3derr problems.

i usually recommend a LAMP stack (linux, apache, mysql and php) for the backend. it's well established and really stable. you could find a million tutorials about it. you'll have to learn some front end too.
you could learn Python and Django or Ruby on Rails. Both are great options.
the big thing these days is Node (backend) and Backbone/Angular.js (frontend). all are javascript libraries/frameworks

>>52444391
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as RAID 10, is in fact, RAID 1&2, or as I've recently taken to calling it, RAID 1 plus 0. RAID 1 plus 0 is not a RAID level unto itself, but rather another level of a fully functioning nested RAID made useful by the added striping.

Many computer users run a modified version of RAID every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of RAID which is widely used today is often called RAID 10, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically RAID 1 nested with RAID 0.

There really is a RAID 1 and a RAID 0, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. RAID 1 is the mirror: the part of the nested array that preserves an exact copy of the data across different discs. RAID 1 is an essential part of a high performance RAID, but by itself hampers system write performance. RAID 1 is normally used in combination with RAID 0: the whole system is basically RAID 0 with RAID 1 added, or RAID 1+0. All the so-called "RAID 10" computers are really nested RAID 1+0.

Hi, /g/

I'm on Windows 7 and using ffmpeg to try to copy parts of a large mp4 so that I can concate them later, but when I go to copy them I get this error message:
[matroska @ 00000000031b0020] Codec for stream 0 does not use global headers but container format requires global headers
[matroska @ 00000000031b0020] Codec for stream 1 does not use global headers but container format requires global headers

I'm using this
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ss 197.294 -t 63.098 -acodec copy -vcodec copy output.mp4
but the output is much worse quality than the original as well. I did some research and found this: http://ffmpeg.gusari.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=590

However, I don't know if this fixes my problem because I'm trying to edit video, not stream it. I tried different output formats, all with the same result. What can I try to do from here? I'm somewhat stumped.

what microsd card should I get for my phone
>>
>>52447121
Yes.
I used ZFS as my data partition years ago but never properly used it (used it on multi-partitioned drive; only accessible through Linux and Hackintosh since I had no dedicated system).
Oh and I guess some programming fun; I hope it'll bring back motivation since I haven't written a line of code in months outside of a shell.

>>52447134
I just slapped some hard drives on it for filler; the motherboard supports up to 6 SATA connections, so two SSDs and 4 HDDs are what I slapped on.
ZFS and RAID is even more redundant, isn't it?
>>
>>52447145
Just a random idea, try a basic conversion (like compression) and try cutting the compressed version. I'm looking for corruption
>>
>>52447214
Know the upper limit for SD card size on your phone.

Then determine what you're using it for.

If you're recording HD video or running filez off it (Like a loonux install) make sure you get something thats fast enough.
>>
>>52447227
desu I don't have any experience with ZFS. RAID is Redundant Array of (Insert favourite descriptive 'i' word here) disks.

It can work in a few ways, but the most common is to have mirroring, or span multiple drives into a single device file.
>>
>>52447273
From what I've fiddled with: ZFS handles anything you need (spanning drives, preventing data corruption, etc.).
Oh, and ECC is """"needed"""" with ZFS.
>>
>>52447320
I'm assuming you did right and made sure your motherboard and ram supports ECC then, right?

Of course; almost any dual socket motherboard supports ECC, since anything server hardware supports ECC.

The sticks of ECC RAM on the list are buffered/registered (although they're just more filler I slapped on; the sticks I plan on ordering aren't on pcpartpicker because not new server hardware aren't on it)

Just got a GTX 980, however I'm having trouble with drivers. Every time i out the 980 in, i can get into windows but only for a few seconds, then I get no signal error on my monitor. I'm pretty sure it's because of a bad driver loading or something. So I completely uninstalled all Nvidia driver software, used Driver Sweeper (in safe mode) and tried to boot back into normal Windows 8.1 to install the driver. But I still got the no signal after I sign in. I'm 99% sure its the drivers because it works fine in safe mode.
Any ideas?

>>52447455
> Unbuffered DIMM

Pretty sure thats code for "Doesn't support buffered ram"
>>
>>52447495
Oh it does; the "Key Features" block has it formatted differently than the memory section:
>Supports up to 96 GB** 1333 / 1066 / 800MHz DDR3 ECC Registered memory
>Supports up to 24 GB 1333 / 1066 / 800MHz DDR3 ECC / Non ECC Unbuffered memory
>1333 / 1066 / 800MHz ECC Registered / ECC or Non ECC Unbuffered DDR3 SDRAM 72-bit, 240-pin gold-plated DIMMs

Only 24GB of it are unbuffered. What slots are unbuffered I do not know.
>>
>>52447495
>>52447539
Actually that's stupid. The board supports a max of 16GB, and 16 * 6 = 96; It can't be a matter of what slots.
>>
>>52447449
According to basic googling, for recording 4k video you'd need a U1 or U3 speed class card.

Size depends on your needs obviously.

>>52447539
>http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/QPI/5500/X8DTL-i.cfm

Just checked the site.
From what I just read it seems that the MOBO will support 96gb or registered ram, and 24 of unbuffered.
I'd check with support or someone who owns the board just to make sure that is correct.

I just tried a bunch of stuff.

1. Converting the entire original mp4 to mkv and then trying to copy pieces of it. The same result happens (packet with invalid duration at the end or beginning of each mp4 I try to cut out of the original)

2. Re-encoding both an mkv and mp4 part from the encoded to mkv original. (same result)

3. Cutting a piece out of a completely different mp4 using the same arguments as before:
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ss 00.00 -t 00.00 -acodec copy -vcodec copy output.mp4

This gave the same result.

4. Cutting an mp4 piece of the original mp4 without any codec copy arguments. This worked without skipping, thought the quality was noticeably lesser.

So the issue is both the -acodec copy and -vcodec copy arguments. Which is annoying, because I'd rather not lose quality on a re-encode. I know it's been a while since you responded, but given this information do you have any idea how I could get ffmpeg to copy properly?

I'm not necessarily saying that, gold and higher rated power supplies from reputable brands do what they're meant to do but if they constantly get hammered by bad electricity they're going to wear down and die eventually. The thing that's supposed to separate good PSUs from bad PSUs is the ability to fail gracefully and not explode taking your other parts with them but again, nothings flawless. A UPS would A:Be the one taking the hammering for it and B: carry a warranty that, if by some unholy chance your house is stuck by lightning or some shit killing everything electronic in it, reimburse you up to a fairly absurd amount.

It's really up to you to judge if the electricity in your area is bad enough for you to be worried/your hardware valuable enough to throw a couple hundred at potentially nothing.

Yes, everything with e-ink reads like paper. That's the entire point.
The caveat is that they aren't good for pdfs that have page sizes larger than the device itself- IE a4 sized textbooks.
You can still read it but I find navigating a page on e-readers to be unpleasant.

1. WINEPREFIX must be a full path, it won't resolve "~" (use $HOME instead)
2. the folder specified must not exist beforehand, if you make a folder then turn it into a prefix afterwards, it will assume 64bit

ps. you can't convert prefixes between arch's

Why the fuck is my download speed only half as fast as my upload on local network?

Asus pcie ac68 adapter and asus ac68u router. Upload is roughly 65mb/s and download 35mb/s.

>>52452387
I'd recommend a kobo aura HD.
Larger screen size than the glo, and supports pdf, epub, and a long-ass list of file formats all natively.

The kindle is another option but you have to convert everything to .mobi and deal with amazon jewware.

raid6: double striped parity, 4+ disks, better read/write, capacity of n-2 disks, can lose 2 disks
raid10: mirror + striping, 4+ disks, better read/write, capacity of n/2 disks, can lose between 1 and n/2 disks (depends on which die)

raid10's pretty obsolete, i'd recommend raid6 over it

for home media storage it's obsolete

the partity calculation overhead is nothing on modern cpu's, and the small latency from it doesn't matter for media storage

besides that, you can improve write latency by using a high speed buffer (such as mirrored ssd's) in either case

It doesn't have a retina screen, making it basically useless for reading anything that isn't an epub. Its also very slow compared to even the ipad 3.

I am using Midori browser for the first time. I already really like it. I have only one problem, there doesn't appear to be a way to customize the interface.

is plugging my usb wifi adapter through a 3 meters long usb cable a bad idea? Will it get some latency?

Just get whichever card has the best specifications for the best price and suits your demands.

With internal components like these there aren't makers like Beats or Razor that are utter shit driven only by marketing.
>>
>>52453440
only problem is power loss, your wifi adapter might not get enough power
if it does then there's no difference, 3 meters is too small a distance for any noticable latency

Get audiophile cables. They're the best.

power loss is unavoidable, though thicker wire = less loss

note that this isn't related to wifi signal power, wifi performance should be the same right up to a 5m usb cable (usb's standard cable length limit), priovided the device gets enough power from the port

I’m on Debian Jessie with fluxbox 1.3.5 as WM and have xrandr 1.4.2 installed. My laptop has a 1280x800 monitor and the external monitor has a resolution of 1280x1024. I’d like to setup X such that each monitor (or `output´) shows an image with a resolution of 1024x768 (without scaling to physical size) and that together they form one continuous screen with a resolution of 2048x768; by continuous I mean that by maximizing an application window it should span across both monitors (each of them showing one half of the window).
I hope I got the vocabulary right.

I already tried ARandR, to no avail.

My friend, who's into programming, told me about that idea for a website he had recently, and that he will start to work on it once he's finished with his uni work (he's very overwhelmed atm)

I really loved his idea, and as his project involved some complex stuff, I worked on it for the past few weeks because i was bored and wanted to learn new stuff.

The problem is, I got very involved into the project by myself, without telling him, that I completed it, and am very proud of what I've made. it's the first project that I work on from scratch, and I really like it.

My friend hasn't really started working on it yet.

As it's my first real project, I'd like to use it on my portfolio, especially considering that I'll try to intend a school somewhat related to webdev next year.

tl;dr, stole an idea to a very good friend of mine, how to cope with that?
