sup /g/
I have a number of text files I need to make into a different text files. I want to write a script that will; open it, cut out the parts I need, and create a new file with the parts in a different format. The pieces i need are clearly labeled but vary in quantity and length.
This doesn't seem like a difficult thing to do but I have very limited coding experience. What's a good resource to get into scripting? Is there a tutorial out there that deals specifically with altering text files? I hear Python is a thing. If I wanted a simple GUI is VB.NET the way to go?
Help please.

I'd help you but you didn't post in the small/stupid questions thread. also just google "editing text files with python"
>>57688414
Or, ya know, you could help me anyways.
I've looked at python before for other things but never found a good tutorial to get what I need done quickly. Unfortunately I don't really have the time I would like to learn something complex.
Found a decent tutorial for VBScript and .hta GUI. Think ill start with that.

You guys told me if I was going to get the network+ that I might as well go for the CCNA
Well, pic related arrived, here I go.
Managed to get a cisco 1921 from a customer. Do I use this purely for PPPOE with a firewall behind it or just use it as an "all in one"?
Any good resources on correctly configuring one?
Alright, how do I set up gns3 and is it worth it

Mi5
any reason to upgrade from the Nexus 5 besides battery (and the fact its EOL now) ?
Feel like there is no more middle-priced phones around 400-500USD and the majority of features have been memes
The only good things that would come out of an upgrade would be:
-water and dust resistance
-larger screen (with very little other benefit in screen tech)
-better battery life
A phone that comes close to that is going to be in the 700USD+ mark. Really doesn't seem like a worthwile upgrade.
How bad are Kingston SSDs, /g/?
Thingken of buying pic related, because it looks amazing in my build.
They explode when you put power on them.
they said you got one thing and sold you another
Sandisk is also red btw
I have that same one but 240gb and it's okay I guess (it's my first ssd anyway so I don't know how it fares against others)

Is my tinfoil hat too thick?
>implying they haven't been spying on people together for years before this
>>57687239
Nah, seems legit but really what can we do? This was always going to happen, it was just a matter of time. Keep on the up and up and you'll be fine.
I mean really if they throw me in jail for watching a video of two adults consensually fisting eachother who really loses? I get free, cushy living for a negligible amount of time and they achieve what exactly?
>>57687268
True, but what's changed now is they get MORE access with totally plausible deniability and it's all legal. They don't have to worry about getting caught.
>>57687339
The whole "if you're not doing anything wrong you have nothing to worry about" argument is bullshit and you know it.
Why is /g/ spazzing out over pic related? I thought this shit belonged on /v/
Should I try it? It's only $10 on sale now.

What do people use to find what's using their disk space on Windows? I used to use an old version of Spacemonger but I'd guess there's something better by now?
WAIT, Stardock owns Spacemonger now?!?
>>57687035
WinDirStat, I've been using it for a while and quite enjoy it.
https://windirstat.net/download.html
I googled and found SpaceSniffer, which is a free clone of classic Spacemonger that is still updated.
Turns out the Bitcoin blockchain uses like 50gb of spaace.

traitor.
>>57686950
you did fine. I really like that most chink phones are using capacitive buttons so you pretty much don't need to waste screen space on that.
Hows the fingerprint reader?
>>57687725
Responsive enough. Kind of "meh" on colder days. But it suits its purpose, and works fine.
