She started overheating after a minor encoding session and so I took her to the emergency room. She had this jaundiced look about her. When we arrived, the doctors looked completely flabbergasted. They told me they've never even seen anything like this in their 30 years of medicine.
I called her family in mainline China to let them know, but the call keeps dropping with these weird beeping sounds.
I'll keep you guys posted

She's currently upgrading to Stretch, wish her luck.

Started downloading animu music with Napster back in '99 and continued on with
Kazaa/Kazaa Lite, WinMX, Morpheus and
LimeWire downloading shitty encodes by today's standards and some porn on the side.

IS it possible to backup a whole android phone, so when you restore with the backup, you get your phone exactly like before, with all settings, accounts connected, apps and saves, everything ?

Yes. Step 1: root and install TWRP
Step 2: choose between NanDroid backup or Titanium Backup
For NanDroid, simply enter TWRP and backup boot, system, data. You can only restore this backup on the phone that made it however.
For Titanium backup, just install the app and go to 'batch actions' then 'backup user apps'. Store on computer. On new phone, just reroot and download Titanium backup, then batch restore. This will not save system app data (e.g. phone contacts, wallpaper) so you need to save these separately. Or you can batch restore user+system apps (USE EXTREME CAUTION as system apps do not like being added to new phones). Large benefit of Titanium is possiblity of using it on new phone, but does not allow for backup of ROM and boot like Nandroid backups.
>>
>>61093562
Edit: if restoring data to the same phone, Nandroid is preferable as you do not need root to restore boot, system and data ( useful if you do not want root on phone). Nandroid backups between different phones are impossible however.

Sup /g/,
I need help with a crontab entry, it seems like it should be simple, but I'm just forgetting how to get the content of a file and use it as a variable.
What I'm trying to do, is copy a text file every week on Friday, but each Friday it will be one of five different files.
eg. week 1...
cp -rf /home/user/1.txt /home/user/oncall.txt
week 2...
cp -rf /home/user/2.txt /home/user/oncall.txt
week 3...
cp -rf /home/user/3.txt /home/user/oncall.txt
and so on up to week 5.
My plan was to use something like reading the contents of /home/user/counter.txt and then if the contents of counter.txt equals 1, copy 1.txt, replace the contents of the counter.txt with the number 2, and so on up to 5 (where it would replace the number 5 with the number 1)
How should I be doing this /g/ ?

hey there, You can totally do this with cron, and it'd probably work fine. If I may offer an alternative, I've been doing this myself lately and it works wonderfully:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd/Timers
if you're running systemd, it can execute scripts on a schedule with .timer files that accompany .service files. even cooler, it can be even driven with .path files.
example: i have a /this/my/code directory. in this directory, is all of my application code i an writing. I would like it so that any time i drop a new file in that directory, a tool called test_my_code runs. I can make a .service file that runs test_my_code when called. and I can make a .path file that listens for any activities in /this/my/code. that way, when i drop a new file in /this/my/code my .path file is activated which activates the .service file. the .service file runs my script that does whatever :-D
>>
>>61093345
one more not as to why this is cool. If you use systemd to manage these scheduled actions, or event driven actions, they will all be recorded with journalctl. if you need to drop this stuff to syslog somewhere, this makes it a ton easier to manage.
>>
>>61093394
I'm on Slackware, no systemd.
I guess what I'm more wondering is if I should be doing this with some sort of a counter and a single script or if there is a way for cron to handle a "do this on Friday, then again on Friday 5 weeks from now" and run 5 different scripts.

The problem with the internet right now is twofold: its de-balkanization, and that forums were always a terrible format for discussion.
Forums first: the actual text of a post is supplemented by a however-many-lines-long "signature," far too many "statistics" like number of posts (who gives a shit) and member since (also who gives a shit), and distracting avatars. Nothing is threaded, posts appear in groups of potentially unrelated 10s or 15s. To top it all off, themes are almost universally shit. Forums are terrible.
Meanwhile, search engines try to find content they know you'll like or at least click on. You see less and less variety by design, and search providers have a vested interest in showing their own services (or affiliated sites, or sites that use their ad services) first. Social media integration in everything both reduces anonymity and, since no comment plugin can ever stop at just being a comment plugin (that doesn't make money), increases load times.
Commercialized search indexing has killed all creativity on the internet, stripping sites that would otherwise be useful and popular of their reach and growth potential unless those sites sell out, becoming just as bad and bloated as the rest, to fund search indexing promotion.
Usenets somewhat mitigate this, as does IRC or Discord or whatever. But there needs to be something better. What's out there that's better, /g/?

Basically what I want to ask is "what's an effective way to find new internet platforms?"
Tixati uses some sort of p2p chat/threaded forum, but nobody uses tixati. Are there similar systems?
>>61093282
(((They))) are only trying to control speech because controlling speech is profitable. Is there an alternative which cares nothing for profit?

if the thinkpad is so duracell then why don't the macs brake? thinkpads break all th time. its cheap plastics, even the old ones from IBM, and everything turns shiny with skin oil. i wash my hands every time i have the chace but still a thinkpad looks like it was jerked off on if its entirely life. even a drunk man can not brake the macbut when sober he broke all the thinkpads then why dont you jsut buy a mac? are you too poor? they are all very slow computers anyways.
the obly bad thing about macs is how itnrusive spell check is. best to turn it offa nad learn how to sepll. or not care.

Because its a group mentality that's been ingrained in the very core of /g/ for SEVERAL years, and mass opinion takes a pretty long time to change. I think we're kinda seeing it now.
A lot also probably has to do with jealousy and being unable to afford Apple products, such as the MBP.

>c't used six SSDs of each model: OCZ TR150, Crucial BX 200, Samsung 750 Evo, Samsung 850 Pro, SanDisk Extreme Pro and SanDisk Ultra II. Conclusive was the fact that all SSDs lasted way longer then advertised. The two SSDs that failed first where a Crucial BX200 , which lasted twice the number of advertised writes at 187 and 280 TB. Then also a number of SSDs died after a accident that caused a power surge or peak (could not understand it really well as the original article is written in German). The top batch became the SanDisk Extreme Pro and Samsung 850 Pro models, they all lasted a minimum of 2.2 Petabyte.
>A normal office system writes between 10 and 35 GB per day. Even if you had a generous 40 GB per day, a nominal endurance of 70 TBW would be achieved after five years. Now if we extrapolate that data and take it to the Samsung SSD 850 that would be 60 times the guaranteed write performance of 150 TBW. At that average of 40-gigabyte daily usage, (purely theoretical of course) that SSD would have lasted 623 years.
