Pick one.
It won't
>>57205910
It is. Now everthing is locked (phones and similiar crap) you have too much sensors on cars, lead free solder in EU so electronics break after 3 years, repairs are more costly than buying new stuff, crappy carburetors on stihl chainsaws etc.
I'm looking for a software to recover deleted files from a flash card.
I'm trying to recover some footage from a gopro of a friend of mine that died.
I've tried a year ago with very little success, I remember I managed to get some videos but they were all corrupted.
Would it be possible eventually do something with the corrupted files?

>I'm looking for a software to recover deleted files from a flash card.
Recuva by piriform
>>57205837
It's one of the software I already used.
I'll try it again.
What is the best distro of Linux to put on the PowerBook G4?
I still want to upgrade the RAM in the future.

Hey /g/, I'm going into information security and was curious about something. Now before I start just know that I have not gone into any programming courses nor am I a math major, so encryption is a bit out of my field, I'm just asking how feasible this would be.
From what I understand encryption runs off of assigned hashes based on a certain bit length. I know some encryption with run the hash through multiple times to create a hash for a hash. What I am after is how feasible it would be to create an encryption that either
A: created unique hashes based on the host it is running off of, this would make it impossible (lmao) to create a database of the hashes, because it would be unique to each server. Or
B:have an encryption that reassigned the hashes based on a set time interval. For example, if you had a 256 bit encryption for each password on a server that would reassign the hashes at say 5:00 everyday, or even every ten minutes or so.
Am I retarded? Is this feasible or a good idea? Am I already late to the party? Please give me your opinions if it worth pursuing, I think it's a great concept.

>>57205576
you are still in high school, have no understanding if anything, and are trying to look smart by proposing some amazing idea?
fuck off and stay in school kid
you're like 20 years too late to the time-based encryption key

Why would I use C over C++?
literally no reason whatsoever
>>57205537
If you're talking language choice, C is much simpler. I think there's about 8 different things you need to know, and boom, you know the whole language and its features. C++ is way more complex, to the point where nobody really knows all the features. This can easily make for very messy code, although some of those features make for cleaner code.
If you're talking compiler, just use a c++ compiler, C code is valid C++ code as long as you don't use c++ keywords as variable names
>>57205601
C is simple in the same way chess is simple. Anyone can learn how to play chess in 20 minutes. It takes years of study and practice before you're any good though, because although the rules are simple, there's a lot of subtlety to how they're actually used and applied. Undefined behavior is the big one. C is so fast because compilers are allowed to assume that you, the programmer, have taken care of ensuring that bad stuff won't happen. (see: integer overflow)
You're correct that C++ has become so complex that pretty much nobody can keep it all in their head anymore.
>C code is valid C++ code as long as you don't use c++ keywords as variable names
Wrong. C++ is stricter about type-checking, for one thing, so some implicit conversions that a C compiler will let slide will be errors to a C++ compiler. There are also some more rarely-used features of C (like variable-length arrays) that are not valid C++.
Is it worth purchasing a Windows Phone now?

Maybe
Is there a way to automate the process of emailing myself fifty 2-gigabyte files over WeTransfer, perhaps with the commandline,, or otherwise make the process less tedious?
>>57205293
Use an external HD

>implying I'm not a NEET.
I actually am graduating college in a few months and will be able to get my own job, but in the meantime, I'm sick of fillibustering my parents to buy me shit, so emailing myself the files from my LiveUSB, so I will have them when I re-install my corrupted OS is my best option right now.
>>57205359
Use a python script.
thoughts on GPU bolsters to prevent GPU sag?
>>57205231
Memes.
Just use Tabasco sauce.
Worked great for me. Used to have system lock ups every 2 days. Now my pc runs fine.
>>57205231
Or get a cube case where the motherboard sits flat.
How autistic is it to pair a 1070 with a 5800k?
>>57205200
not really
you should really go for the 1080 though
>>57205201
depends on what you are doing
i would hold for HBM2 options if i was going into 4k
but would be fine with a single 1070
>>57205200
Do you even have something better than a 1080p 60hz display?
So what is the best Free Software Movement approved distro?
are any of them worthwhile?
I've seen people using Trisquel.
>>57205122
>are any of them worthwhile?
No.
Install Gentoo.
I tried trisquel.
Don't even once.
Try something else
gentoo is the way
Considering getting these. Thoughts?

tfw fell for the "Firefox is still the best browser meme"
>>57205014
Chrom[e,ium] is faster but you can't make it respect your privacy. It talks to Google about everything you do through it no matter what. It also looks like Chrome and you can like it or leave.
Firefox is slower but you can make it respect your privacy, if you change a bunch of stuff. You can also change how it looks.
your choice.

Please point me at the botnet.

FF is fast enough for me.
Can it be saved?
>>57204982
it look fine, you don't need all those pins anyhow, most of them are for redundancy. just break them off and you'll be good to go
>>57204982
If none of the pins have broken off, I'd get a pair of very small tweezers or forceps and straighten them back very carefully just enough that you can socket the cpu.
t. did something similar before.
>>57204982
If your are broken, it can be saved. It'll take a long time but it's possible.
why?
>>57204700
why not?
