Alright so I think I fucked up
I have a blue yeti mic, pic related is the cable. It's been plugged in for more than a few weeks no problem, however today while I was downloading Visual studio a USB power surge occurred, or at least that's what the notification said. Now when it's plugged in it somehow turns off my keyboard and my mouse.
I know the USB is fine, as I tested it, but I don't know if the cable is fried or the mic itself.

Which laptop should i buy?
It needs to be something decent enough to play dota 2 etc, and nice monitor for my tv series

>>52589309
Restart the system and try a different USB port. Then try again. It might also be worth noting that my Blue Yeti has done odd things with cheap USB cables before (storage static iirc).

>>52585778
Re-asking for new thread. Screen tearing while browsing /g/ is making me want to kill myself.

>>52589358
I tried all of the ports, no luck.
Even before I fully insert the cable, both the mouse and keyboard shit themselves. It happens even when the cable isn't connected to the mic.
It is the same cable the mic was packaged with, if it helps any.
Is it possible it has a static charge? And how would I discharge it?

>>52589267

Is there a way to make the way Vim decorates splits look less like shit?

Like, make it look similar to tmux's splits for example.

What are the respectable motherboard brands now?

I want to make a 1151 setup, i'm pretty sure on the other parts, but i don't know what's good/dogshit on mobos. i want to build a pc that, you know, just WORKS when i need it to for what i need it for.

i got money, but i don't want to waste it on worthless stuff

>>52589586
Is it just that one server or do ALL servers have high ping?

If its just that one server you probably just have extraordinarily bad routing to it.

>>52589586
try a variety of servers, it could be the server you're connecting to.

Not all servers, a bunch are normal. The major problem is this is a private server I play with my friends on. I've never had this problem with the server before.

Repoastin'. I dropped my Acer and the hard-drive seems to be broken/out of place. Should I just buy a new one or get an SSD?

>>52589734
get an ssd

>>52589742
alright, mainly a gamer, and taking them apart is a hassle so i just want to make 100% sure there are no downsides besides lack of storage.

>>52589774
besides the price/storage there are only benefits to having an ssd. they are significantly faster and more durable than hdd's. if you have the money, invest in an ssd with MLC toggles. the samsung 850 pro for example comes with 10 years warranty.

Would /g/ approve of tagspaces?
http://www.tagspaces.org/
It claims to be a file tagging program that inputs the tags in file names. (e.g.: img_093 [laughing_girls sakura sakurafish everyday].jpg)

I want to use it to organize ALL my files, especially reaction images. However, I want to use it in conjunction with with HappyPanda and HydrusNetwork - would that be possible?

I fear just trying it because I already organize all my files by file name, so I would basically have to destroy my existing organization structure.
In addition to that, I fear that filenames are much too short for many tags. I love tagging, I want to have a gajillion tags.
I also fear that it might stop being developed on - it seems to be FOSS, though. Does that make it much more likely to stay updated?
Lastly, at some point I want to transition from Windows to some Linux distribution. It claims to be cross-platform. Would it really be unproblematic?

On my GS4, after having Chrome up for a while, all the other running apps shut down. My launcher redraws itself too. My phone doesn't say it's using a crap ton of RAM so I don't know what's the deal.

So I'm running a gtx 960, with the latest driver version(361.43).

Every time I restart my computer, my graphics card completely shits itself. It stutters massively, won't get more than 40 frames in fucking anything(except Vermintide, where everything runs at like 5x the normal speed like it's on crack). I thought my GPU was dying, but then I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them and it started working fine again. Except I have to uninstall and reinstall the drivers every fucking time I restart my computer, for any reason.

I have a problem were in some games it seems out of sync, this happens mostly with timers (cooldowns, clock etc.) 'lagging' back and forth.

My character jumps around but even other characters in the game don't, it's very strange, here are some examples.

The example game isn't the only time it happens, it happens in other games too. I have no idea what would cause it, searches reveal nothing, any help would be appreciated.

I've tried getting this answered twice now but no replies, if there is another information I can give for you to help I can.

>>52590695
That's neat. What is that?

>>52590649
Internet speeds are fine, ping isn't high though it might be a packet size problem, everyone else in the game moves normally.

Basic specs are i7 processor which is 3 or so years old at the moment, GTX 970 ti 4gb, I run Windows 10 and the game from an SSD and I have 8gb of RAM, I can't recall the speed of it though. Performance, at least from the task manager performance viewer, looks fine.

I'm not at my computer at the moment so I can't give a full rundown, I will be able to later though, if it's necessary.

Got an EVGA gtx 970 for my first build (built it last weekend).

What should I expect to be able to overclock it to, and any advice for overclocking? I was just playing around with the overclocking software last night and I think I got to +120 on the core clock before the minimum fps dropped from 25 to 7 in unigene heaven and artifacting started showing in more than just scene 10 (at least I think that was artifacting).the It was also the area I started getting black screens, although nothing ever actually crashed.


(base clock speed turbos to 1342 and max at 1392).

Also, I've heard that using the adapter that comes with the card is bad, should I switch it out?

Shit. I mean ripping old dvds.

Hey /g/. I come looking for advice. I'm gonn simply copypasta the conversation here that I had with someone else.


Well the past couple months I can't shut down my computer unless I wanna risk it not rebooting

I don't know what exactly was wrong with it, but on reboot it gets to where the windows logo comes up and it's loading

But it sits there endlessly.

It used to be that I could hard reboot it and it would work, but over time that worked less and less

And for the past three days, it's been unreviveable

I've tried booting from an external HDD backup

I've tried system restore

I've tried startup repair

I've even tried booting up a version of Linux Mint from a CD, and you know how much I hate Linux

I had al but given up

So today I decided to go for broke and do a full factory reset

Even after that, it took a couple of reboots for it to finally work

And now I'm online, everything seems fine other than everything needing updates

[REDACTED]

this isn't a stupid question but you should ask here
just copy an paste what you said
>>52589267

[REDACTED]

Well perhaps I'll try there

But here's my predicament

I need to reboot to update Internet Explorer so I'm using the current version

At the same time, I want to try and install TF2 to see if it will work now that I've reset everything\

But if it doesn't work, it'll blue screen and I'll have to reboot anyway

Should I take the risk of rebooting and hoping everything's fixed, or should I just play it safe and not?

On an old 90's relic of a website, I found this story that I want to stick on my ereader. The only thing is, that it's posted in like 150 different 1-chapter .txt files. Is there any way to turn the batch of files into an ebook format, or even a single .pdf?

Hey /SQT/
My desktop is a Q6400 and I haven't touched it in years. I'm looking to build a gaming computer in the future but was wondering if while I save up the money I could buy a 980ti first and just throw it in there? Is that possible or just plain idiotic.

Thanks.

>>52591692

I'm trying to decide on a graphics card. It'll be in an mITX build. Australian prices fucking suck.

>970 is $475 to $619
>390 is $489 to $529
>390X is $589 to $689
>980 is $699 to $999 (WTF)
>980Ti is $999 to $1399


Come to the conclusion over loads of research that a Sapphire 390 Nitro OC'ed ($509) and cooled with a H110 ($149) and Kraken G10 bracket ($45) is probably best price-to-performance. My logic is that down the track if I upgrade GPUs I'll have a CPU cooler for another build or to donate to someone, so some of the value is retained.

$509 + $149 + $45 = $703

Is this dumb or good thinking?

One thing about CPU coolers, unless something goes horribly wrong and AMD fucks up holes for am4(intel not going to do anything that's for sure) yea you are right.

Turn your vm off.
Settings of the VM -> Storage -> SATA controller -> Add optical drive -> Leave empty -> Little disk icon on the right side -> Choose your disk drive.
Then it will show up as a disk drive in your VM.

Thank you very much man. I have one more question if you feel so inclined to answer: how can I connect to the internet on xp?

I'm on windows 2012 and deduplicating 2 volumes. Are there any file types I should exclude from the start?

Why isn't everything deduped? 30% through one volume and saved 300gb already.

>>52592645
> why would you want to water cool sapphire nitro card? or am i reading it wrong?

A few reasons. Mostly overclocking, but also as it'll be in a small form factor so I want to keep it cool and not being a heater for my room. Australia is hot, so I want to be able to game even if its 35 degrees outside.

>>52592695
modern ones are alright input lag is not that bad almost like monitor, still higher than 30ms if not gaming mode etc.
but realistically if you are not eagle eyed you can't work properly on 40"-50"

>>52592695
Latency is usually the problem, TVs have comparatively high latency.

>>52592703
It should work by default, it always does for me.
If it doesn't, you'll have to mess with network settings.
Check if the virtual cable is unplugged: start the VM, on the bottom of the VirtualBox window right click the network icon, "Connect the network adapter". If it's already connected, then I don't know how to help you.

What kind of motherboard should I buy with an i5-6600k?

Depends on form factor of your case. You haven't decided on a case yet? I'm guessing if you're asking this you don't have specific requirements that would mean you need more than 2 drives, so consider mATX:

So I've just found about data deduplication on windows server 2012. Currently deduplicating 3tb of data and saved 350gb already.

Standard on linux is to create a user group with the same name as the user for every user. Then additional groups where needed, eg. wheel for admin privileges (ability to use sudo). Using the desktop as a root user is really bad form, you are just going to accidentally break something.

I seem to fail to grasp how to install an OS on a raspberry pi.

I have tried with different images, different sd cards, verified all the images were not corrupted and the sd card was not corrupted.
Is there something magical I am missing?
I just dd like the guide
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/linux.md
said

apart from entering /gif/ from one of the 4chan apps, how can i watch pron in my android telephone

>>52594186
my experience is, that you literally have to

dd bs=4M if=2015-11-21-raspbian-jessie.img of=/dev/sdd

and it works, well adjust paths and device

The problem with Alienware isn't looks, its that i can pay $1000+ for a computer with a fucking r9 270x, because it has the newest i7, and a bunch of cheap shit inside. If the MSI has decent parts for a decent price, then I'd suggest that. This might also help: http://www.amazon.com/K501UX-15-inch-Gaming-Processor-Windows/dp/B0146DD02G/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1453639739&sr=1-1&keywords=asus it's got an i7 and gtx 960m for less than $800, but it only has a 256GB SSD, although you can swap that out for a 1TB hard drive for like $50ish if you really want more space.

okay.
I tried bs 1m, 4m and ddrescue, nothing works.

Do I have to use some special sd card in order to get it to work?

>>52594186
>>52594305
have you tried switching your power source?
in 99% of use cases this piece of shit fails
when not having enough energy.
if it is a pi 2 (which) i assume you should search for a power sourch with 5V and at least 2A.
is your red led constantly on and your green led blinking?

only use it to do good, no evil shit, please.

>and the sd card was not corrupted.

The errors on your screenshot say it otherwise.

Take out the sdcard and do a full "surface" test on another computer.

Go to fucking tumblr, because this isn't a "safe space" for pussies, but I guess it's a "safe space" for people who want to argue, and prove each other wrong as much as we want, whether or not we acknowledge it. This website, and most, are what universities should be. A place where people can argue there points, and talk about anything, and don't have to worry about others personal problems. Especially when they don't fucking exist. You're not getting triggered when people say autistic in a way you consider wrong, you're disagreeing with them. You don't have PTSD because someone was fucking mean to you. You where never abused, you where never sent to war, and even if you did that's YOUR fucking problem, not MINE or ANYONE ELSE'S, because this world isn't for little pussies to take my, or anyone else's freedom of speech away because it hurts your wittle feewings.

i have a 7 year old antec 1200 that i would like to reuse in my new pc. i want to replace all of my fans in it to make it fresh and new. is there any place to source these fans? there is one huge fan on the top that i think will be hard to find and probably expensive.

>>52594355
I did as the guide said
wrote the data to the card, pulled the data off the card and checked those two against each other.
I checked the original image by checking the md5sum on the site vs the downloaded image.

dd bs=4M if=2015-11-21-raspbian-jessie.img of=/dev/sdd
dd bs=4M if=/dev/sdd of=from-sd-card.img

>>52594550
So the card is 16gb.
When I dd the img I get two partitions.
The total size is the same as the size of the img.
Should I add a third partition manually?
Or should I try a different brand of SD cards and what type would work?

>>52594634
try a class 10 sdhc from sandisk with 8gb
two partitions are fine
have you verified your download?

Okay i've messed up my desktop display because i've disabled my display adapter. Operating on windows 8.1, i tried booting into safe mode via holding down Shift but realized that i have to enable safe mode for that to work. Now i can only boot up till acer screen and it switches to a black screen.

tldr: I disabled display adapter via through device manager but can't re-enable by going through the safe boot method.

I am at my wit's end, someone please help.

/diy/ here. I got a laptop for free and basicly wanted to take it apart for the radial fan, However I found a matching PSU and gave it a try. It boots up, but both in normal mode and save mode I end up with a black screen and movable cursor.

>>52594655
I veryfied the downloads by checking the md5sum, they are the same.
I have also tried multiple img's.
The cards I used is all like >>52594305
and they are also class 10, sdhc although 16gb.
It is hard for me to accept that all these sd cards are broken. They have never been used before, transferring files to and from is tested to work.
It has to be a software failure, but I am not sure what I can do, I will test it with more images

Software which is not physical tells hardware which is physical what to do?(e.g. I click on virtual shut down button and the computer physically shuts down???)

I have 2 970s in SLI The highest I've been able to overclock both cards stable is somewhere around 1550.

A single 970 should be able to handle any unigine benchmark easily. You may have a horrible overclocker, but I'd try playing with the voltages a bit. You may be able to get more out of the card that way.

My desktop is making a weird "breathing" sound. Like, it's the computer version of like a wheezy, clicking sort of breathing. I'm not sure what's causing it: it happens regardless of CPU usage or RAM usage, and it's consistent/neverending just like a person's breathing might be.

Hey there /g/ents. This is a two parter. I have a project I'm working on using a neural network. I've been messing around in Python mostly. The first question is:
Is C the best language for this project?
The second question is:
What resources should I access to grog C most efficiently. I started out on the Wikipedia article, but all it did was tell me what C was good for, not what it was bad for.

>>52596009

>I end up with a black screen and movable cursor.
Sounds like Windows Vista is fairly fucked.

There could be something more sinister going on with the underlying hardware seeing as its a freebe laptop. But since the sensible thing to do in any case is just reinstall the OS, I would recommend that you just get busy reinstalling Windows Vista (download a genuine ISO image from MS website + use the license key on the sticker on the bottom of the laptop).

Or, if you actually know what you are doing, install you're fave Linux distro. But judging by the nature of your query, you may be better off sticking with Windows.. :^)

My computer has recently been having trouble identifying my HDDs. I'm not sure if it happens at bootup or if they're lost when I get to my desktop though. The issue is fixed with a simple restart of the computer, but now I'm getting booted to a "temporary user account" instead of the main desktop (fixed by logging in/out). My motherboard is probably fried.

How can I diagnose this problem?

Windows 10

>>52596508
no program will ever be able to delete other programs fully.
they don't know where they put any config files.

How do I print a specific amount of strings in a row?
Like this:
User enters "10" in console
Console prints "-" 10 times

keep it basic, im still learning the language

>>52596584
What is the language? It probably has a for loop anyway, so look that up.

How do you properly format an SSD?

>>52596620
totally forgot that.

it is python

>>52596358
It does. However I somhow managed to get it into a self repair mode and that fixed it.
The new question is "How do I get rid off all the possible malware on it?" I don't realy care for keeping any data that is on it at the moment. Also: Tuns out it actually is windows 7 not vista.

>>52596629
exactly like any other drive.

If you want to secure erase the ssd for data protection see:
http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/minisite/SSD/global/html/support/faqs_03.html
Expand the FAQ "How do I perform Secure Erase in my OS environment?"

> Is C the best language for this project?

No.
I cannot even come up with a reason when anyone should pick C. Maybe if you target tiny boards with very limited memory.
Maybe then.

But the rPi can already run Python.
And you could also use "PyPy" which can be wicked fast.

> C was good for
Well it is bad for anything, unless you want to work on the Linux kernel. The world uses C++, Swift, Java, etc. But C... probably only in the world of Linux.

It just adds extra complexity.

Meh, they do the same thing.
IF it's got the IO you need, it's a good board.
Auto tuning sucks anyway, and BIOS updates are no risky anymore.

So anything will do.

>>52595342
You can turn off the external fans, by unplugging them, even when the computer is running.

You can stop the GPU fans (if old by hand), with software.

CPU / PSU sound... well, don't turn those fans off.
But you can maybe pinpoint from this.
You could also remove the PSU from the case, leaving you with one fan only.

>>52596672
Why not just format it dumbo?
Use a live NOD32 or Kaspersky USB, do a scan, copy data you might need (or create an image of drive so you can mount/browse it later), that's it.

I need to upgrade my motherboard, but I don't want to have to reinstall Windows. From what I remember, you only have to reactivate Windows (which is an automatic thing it does online) as long as the new motherboard has the same OS loader as the old one. The thing is, new motherboards have some UEFI thing instead of a BIOS? I don't know how relevant that is, and I don't know how to look up which recent motherboards have the same OS loader as my current one.

How can I look up which new motherboards I can move my hard drive to without having to reinstall the OS?

That is a perfectly valid answer.
It translates to: Yes you should be worried.

Hey /g/, need your help
So back in June, after leaving my computer in a basement for a month, I came back to it giving me beeps. Since then I've swapped out multiple components, and am now sitting with a new board, a new case, a new processor, and new RAM, but I'm still getting the same three beeps, even on the other board.

I've tried with i7 3770k, i5 3570k, Kingston HyperX Blue, Geil Evo Leggera, Asrock Z77 Extreme3 and the Intel DZ77GA-70K

It's three beeps before the computer shuts off with either board before rebooting and doing the same thing.

I've got a 1000W PSU, a bluray drive, 3 x 3TB HDD, a 120GB SSD, and two GTX 770's in SLI. I'm not really sure what else it could be.

144hz or 1440p? I just have a 970 so buying a monitor with both seems wasteful.

>>52595392
If you are not already doing it, I recommend you buy a nice big HDD to store all the data you dont need every day.

SSDs will speed up booting, programm starts and programm execution.
So all the pictures, movies, musik can be put elsewhere so the SSD is reserved for the system and programms that benefit from the faster read/write speed.

>>52597538

Anyone know where I can find working drivers for the Realtek RTL8188ETV Wireless Card? Every driver I've found will find wireless networks, but can't actually connect to them.

It can't actually connect to them, though, is the problem.

I think my phone has some windows virus on it because my browser has been acting up ever since I plugged it in to copy photos over (this is the first time I've plugged it in). I ran a malwarebytes scan on my computer and removed a bunch of threats, but is this enough to make sure my drives are clean? Should I dban them and reinstall the OS? Also, what about my phone? Is the best way to clean that by flashing TWRP to wipe it or something? Thanks.

>>52598208
if you're not a pro-gamer go with the 1440p.
the real question here : is a 970 enough for 1440p.

>>52598139
You can look up the beeps online.
Look for Beep codes and your board.

I use Apache for my webserver so I will defend it.
I'm not going to say one is better than the other, both have their own uses and pros.

Some people prefer Nginx, that's all. There is no solid good enough reason to prefer one over the other.

there is no such thing. the UEFI can be ran in legacy mode for systems that support BIOS.
just get anything man, it'll work. might have some "hardware changed" errors when starting Windows for the first time but it's nothing google won't help you solve.

>>52598608
Do your own research
https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=apache+nginx

tl;dr: nginx is newer, has less legacy baggage, is much more efficient, much more scalable, and much cleaner to work with.

Apache only continues to be used because it's older and was able to gain dominance when it was the only game in town. Now people like >>52598645 use it because they don't actually have any idea of the differences between them, but heard somewhere that apache is some kind of de facto standard.
Apache is sort of like Windows now that I think about it.

Get a legit W7 iso, should be one of the first search results on Google, then use windows loader

Vps for hosting.

>>52598828
depends what you're doing
most preactivated ones will give updates just fine but do be careful because some of them don't autoblock the updates that cause deactivation

your best bet is to use the Rufus USB installer, give it a google search and it'll be real easy to find. it makes the process a lot easier

Not in my experience. Chances are, when moving a hard drive to a new motherboard, the motherboard will simply refuse to boot from the device no matter how many BIOS settings you tweak. Outside of rare cases, it would require a reinstall of Windows to get running.

That said, there's apparently this Sysprep feature which I've never heard of and am just now reading about. Hopefully using it will take care of things.

Just dont listen to unqualified shilling and shit.
people will always go on about the things they like and tell you everything else is shit.

Apache is a simple tool for webhosting and has been in use since forevery.

Ngnix is another tool for webhosting that is more complicated but offers more detailed options.

Just because apache does not offer all kinds of shit you could possibly need its not shit.
And just because ngnix has many expert level settingsn shit does not mean its the best ever and everything else is shit.

If Apache serves your needs its fine. If not try ngnix.

There's no reason to use apache for that.
Use the overall better tool, even if your scale is too small to see that much of a benefit from it.

Owncloud even provides an example nginx configuration so there's no merit at all to the fear-mongering "it's harder to configure" bullshit that the apache shill is trying to feed you

Nice pic.
Just dont be a baby and reinstall the operating system.
Windows just doesnt care if its the same chipset or brand or whatever. It looks for the Serial number that is unique.
Switching the board without reinstalling will only cause problems.
So reinstall and call support.

How do I get the Cineform codec for Windows?

I can tell you that apache offers a lot more functionality than nginx in tons of areas, and that nginx is just as easy if not easier to configure compared to apache.

So I got a Lenovo A328 (pretty poor without rooting) and this update is grinding my gears.
What does it do?
Does it make any improvements or makes things worse?
How much space does it need on the internal storage? (I got a stable of 150-350 MB free)
Is it safe when I'm rooted (I got the VIBE system update system's root permissions denied, same with Senior Experience) and removed quite a few in-built apps? (Lenovo Launcher, Vk, that weird Russian taxi shit etc.) I also got Xposed Framework (Obb on SD, RootCloak, LuckyPatcher) and LuckyPatcher. I don't know how to back up the system and shit.
Also I got a class 10 32gb SDcard (ADATA I think).
Still stock ROM though.

hello guys, how can I tell if my laptop has support for UEFI, I'm currently using Legacy and it sucks.

I'm on the fence about buying a certain chinese tablet, I just need some info from people who have actually used tablets before, because it's my first one.

Is windows 10 good for tablets? Is an 8inch 1920x1200 screen good? I think it was around 280 ppi. Lastly, I've heard horror stories about the intel cherry trail chips overheating like mad. Is that true and is it really a problem?

I plugged my old harddrive into my new pc, and now there's this system reserved drive.

What is that, and what do I do with it?

>>52599201
>apache offers a lot more functionality than nginx in tons of areas
Like what?

>>52599201
I never even mentioned functionality or features.
Also I did not say that any of the two was superior

If you know your way around computers you wouldnt really think any of those are complicated.

I just spent the last hour dumping time into an online flash game that has a save system, but I was playing it in private browsing. I am still playing on the same browser instance, so the data is still there if I reload the page (after using the game's save function), but is there a way for me to manually fetch the game's save files for external archival? Would my playing in private browsing affect this being possible at all? If fetching this save is possible, how would it be done?

You take exactly what you just wrote and put it in a formular with the respective cells.

>>52597591
- Use Google
- Find a site with good "WOT" rating
- Use virustotal.com to check APK.

It always worked for me.
You can also just install a free AV on your phone, it only runs when you install something or you scan manually.

>>52599696
In recent version of Windows (tested it on W7 and later haven't tried earlier ones) you can actually simply cut/paste these folders from their original location (C:\Users\{NAME}\) to wherever you want, and all shortcuts and other references should update automatically.

Symlinks

Go to C:\users\username\

Delete the folder Pictures

Make the folder Pictures on drive ie D:\Pictures

And use cmd to make a smylink

mklink C:\users\username\Pictures D:\Pictures

Or use this program that I use

Use a live scan tool. ESET NOD32, Kaspersky, Bitdefender.. they all have one. Just put one on pendrive, boot it up, scan.

If nothing comes up, you are good.

>>52599064

>>52598828
Just use an MSDN iso.

1) Grab MSDN iso. (forum.mydigitallife.info)
2) Grab Windows 7 Loader (forum.mydigitallife.info)
3) Put MSDN iso to pendrive (google://"windows 7 usb download tool")
4) Boot drive, install.

I remember my being extremely paranoid about fucking up my laptop or its battery when I first got it, so I looked up if it's ok to run a laptop plugged into the wall without a battery, or with one, or if it's ok to leave a battery unused and removed from something for extended periods of time and shit like that, and I remember reading that one of the main reasons for at least draining a laptop's battery from full to dead at least once a month is that it helps maintain the battery's ability to accurately gauge it's power level. Conditioning through exclusive or almost exclusive use can have a similar affect on a battery, such as if one were to never drain their battery fully, but always start recharging it when it is at say, 20%. I forgot what I read happens in such a scenario, but I believe the battery will just show it hovers around 20% when in fact it is lower, and it may just die before it should.

- Get a cheap domain, refrain from promotions.
They usually up the price for renew.
- Get privacy protection.

Server:
- Kimsufi (cheap barebone)
- Online.net (again, cheap barebone)
- auction hetzner (not that cheap, but more powerful)

Or, use DigitalOcean. If you are student, you can get 100$ credits. If not, it's only 5$.

>>52599347
Just get a Galaxy Tab S (not S2, thats shit.)
Or an iPad Air 2.
Only two viable tablets on the market.

If you buy Chink, expect no support, no drivers, no warranty.

Windows creates one since Vista, it's basically like GRUB, it does the boot.
You leave that alone, if you ever want to boot that drive again.

ultraiso can make bootable usb drives very easily, just download some portable version, open the iso in it then in bootable click in write disk image

On Windows XP->7:
START -> Right-click Computer -> "Manage" or "Disk Management"

On 8-10:
WIN+X: "DIsk Management"

You can see that your current drive also has one.
You can also "hide it", by right clicking it, and removing the drive letter.

>>52599963
Well fuck, that blows. I was looking at the second hand thing because amazon eu thinks refurbished means they can just shave 10 euro off the full new price and call it a day.

>>52599979
I am just looking for something to browse while I'm on the shitter and look at videos and comics on the train, so a large phone would actually be best I think.

I have an HDMI cable going from my PC to TV so that I can use it as a secondary monitor. If I change the TV to watch TV channels, can I somehow record the picture and sound from the TV and save it to my computer?

>>52600104
We have trusted seller sites in my country, you could try those... don't know if the US has such a thing.

Like this site got reviews, trusted people, etc.
But, you can _always_ get scammed..

Again the Nexus 7 is a weak piece of shit.
Maybe a Chink shit could be better.
Check ebay, aliexpress, dealextreme.

>>52600117
No, because you have a HDMI-OUT.
If you buy a card, like "Avermedia gamer" cards, which come with HDMI-IN, then yes, you can record shit.

>>52600139
AOSP is the most minimal.
CM comes close.
The others are unusable.
(Even those two have tons of bugs.)

By the way just download a kernel, and overclock CPU. That's your best shot.
Disable animations and shit in Developer Settings.
Use "KISS" or "NOVA" launchers.

I'm on the eu, actually. I just use dollar amounts since the euro isn't doing that much better anymore, so it's easier. I was also looking at the chink shit earlier, kind of liked the look of the chuwi hi8. Only thing is that the battery apparently takes a long time to charge and that the cherry trail chipsets have a horrible reputation, depending on who you ask.

How is the nexus 7 a weak piece of shit, though? Everyone and their grandma seem to reccomend them as bood budget tablets.

Can anyone recommend any good "all in one" offline driver pack for use on my daily carry USB? I have been using the one from drp.su but it takes a very long time to install anything I usually just give up and download the driver from my phone after a while.

>>52600226
My sister's boyfriend bought one (Nexus 7). Just check Geekbench scores.
I mean, sure, for 100$ it's ok, but it is SLOW.
Slow as ALL FUCK.

Reading books should be fine though.

Again, just order a chink stuff, it will last longer than a Nexus 7 now would last anyway.
It's an old tablet too.
(Just checked yesterday, a 3GB phone is 150$. Sure, MTK chipset, but who cares?)

>>52600291
Since I'll mostly use it for movies and comics, I think something a bit larger than a phone would be better though. But yeah, I guess I'll look at chink stuff. Any reccomendations or stuff to really stay away from? What kind of specs should i go for minimum these days?

>>52600351
- 2, 3GB of ram.
- check the cpu / gpu through Google (like performance wise)
- at least 7k+ mAh battery for 10"

uhm.. and whatever you need.
if you need bluetooth, nfc, etc, check if it's got one.

also if you buy on ebay and it comes with protection, you get your money back if it fucks up, it does not work, etc.
aliexpress also got some warranty IIRC. not sure.

just be careful.
once you found a few good candidates, make a thread, post them, people will help.

Hi Linuxers,

I hope we have some CLI guys browsing tonight rather than any Gooeys.

Anyway, can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong with this code

sudo for i in $(/var/local/osd1/current/*/*) ; do xfs_bmap -v $i ; done

Gives
-bash: syntax error near unexpected token 'do'

so its a loop for every item within a directory, which then is meant to do a bitmap of each item showing the physical location (sectors on disk) but I can't seem to get the loop right, even though its taken from someone's blog.
