Hey, I'm le newb on programming, I know some stuff already but I still suck.
I was wondering if there's some site that provides a few exercises to practice programming? Beginner friendly mostly
Ebin funny pic xp
dibt program for the sake of programming, go out and expoerience life
>>58312837
codewars.com for quick exercises
but honestly just find a project and work on it, much more fun than doing stupid exercises and you learn a lot more too
if you like a little biology/dna type puzzles try rosalind.org
Thinking of getting a chromecast to stream local stuff and kodi from my linux computer.
Don't really know anything about this though, anything I should be aware of? Any better alternatives?
I have a several years old cromecast, I don't think it would work with kodi. It will let you send whatever is in your browser once you have the addon added.

Really? I thought you could set chrome to cast the whole screen?
>>58312782
You can do that but there is a very noticeable lag if you're casting the screen.
Hi /g/, /pol/ack here. Not trying to take my bullshit off of the containment zone, but I'm technologically illiterate and would greatly appreciate y'all's help. In the FBI report on Russian "hacking", they talk about a Yara signature. What is that?

I got mine right. That or I'm not picky. $12 Zenni glasses too because fuck paying a ton.
General purpose solutions generally do not have a perfect fit. The best way to get a perfect fit is when you have a custom produced piece.
>tfw this used to mean something

Yes, it's all some people have, it's all that gives them hope.
be their hero, be their angel, be their monument, or be none of it. You don't owe this world a thing, you never did.

At least we have Samsung now to replace them.

I recently came across a surround sound system for free, but the actual receiver box has issues. The speakers work great apparently.
I really just want to use the speakers to hook up to my phone for music.
Is there anything I can do without having to buy a brand new system for 300+ dollars?
I'm going to bump with slightly homoerotic inspiration until I get an answer
You'd need to buy a 5.1 receiver and if your sub is passive, either a mono amp for it or just replace with an active sub
Bump
>Android TV box
which one is best value?
Xiaomi 4k
Chromecast 4k
Roku
Nvidia shield
Pick your fucking poison, they're all the same, and equally useless
don't get a budget one like the m86 / mxqpro etc they're all shit with backdoors
get one that actually runs ANDROID TV
there are like 3 devices
>>58312062
I own a ROKU
The reason I'm asking is because I found a pay pal account with $30 in it, so it can't be more than that. Can I get a decent one for that price? I'm looking at a MXQ s805
Before I investigate this I was wondering if this is a known issue.
Since January 1st I get this error when visiting here: "Avast Web Shield has blocked access to this page because the following certificate is invalid https://boards.4chan.org"
Photo of this attached because it couldn't be captured with a screenshot.
When I disable this and let Firefox check the certificate itself, the result is without any mention of anything out of the ordinary. Inspecting the certificate hierarchy visually it seems that it is issued to ssl538052.cloudflaressl.com and not boards.4chan.org as the url would suggest.
It looks like a successful man-in-the-middle attack where cloudflare identifies itself as 4chan but what I am communicating with is absolutely something else and whom I should actually not trust.
I've read somewhere about cloudflare keyless SSL. That they take master keys of others into their own storage. Allowing to do anything they want under their (other) name.
Am I paranoid or what?
>>58312026
did you just take a pic of your fucking monitor
>Photo of this attached because I'm too retarded to capture it with a screenshot.
FTFY

It is an enlargement of a photo, and the scaling and rotating is creating Moiré patterns which make my screen look shitty. Its a good screen.
so I was returning some computer parts to canada computers for work and noticed a graphics card had a amd rewards code for hitman so i sent them an email with the receipt got the game key then returned it for full money back
I see there is a $74 motherboard with a doom code, is there anything stopping me from essentially renting the board for a couple of days for a free doom code?
>>58311964
hahaha just pirate the game idiot
They might catch on and call the police?
They might check the code during the return process?
They might have your name on file when the next person complains their code doesn't work?
Your code may be revoked?
>is there anything stopping me from essentially renting the board for a couple of days for a free doom code?
I'd say a moral compass but obviously that's not coming into play.
>>58312094
you email them the invoice number on the receipt and they send back a amd rewards code, then amd emails you a steam key. does not seem to actually be associated with the physical product itself so I don't think I wouldn't be taking anyone's code
I'm just afraid it would be akin to a charge back on the key and it could effect my steam account
Apple is amazing.

Why are SSD's such a dead market? Last one came out like over 9 months ago and the current 'best' one has been out for like 3 years now.
i feel like i've waited too long and if i spring for one now the next big thing is going to blow it away less than 6 months later.

Symbolic or numerical differentiation?
>>58311719
I don't know what you want me to do.
def deriv(f, pt):
h = .00001
def ret(x):
dfxdx = (f(x+h)-f(x))/h
return "{0:.4f}".format(dfxdx)
return ret(pt)
Someone please explain this to me.
how the fuck do these things alter sound?

I've decided to finally move from Iphone to Android since I got tired of jailbreaking. Which android phone would let me have the most freedom and control or are they all the same.
>>58311607
Is the Samsung J5 line rootable?
>>58311607
3T or Google Pixel. They are the best android phones currently.
