ITT: Most useful scripts you've written

I torrented a ton of music and a lot of the songs had the artists names in front of them.
So I wrote a script to check for songs in my music directory that started with any of the artists names, and renamed the song without the artists name. Took like 2 minutes to write in python and saved me a lot of time.

Why does medical equipment cost so much money?
11 posts and 1 images submitted.
>>
>>56022702
Because people don't care, insurance will pay for it!
>>
Insurance companies + People will pay anything for health
In countries with nationalised health systems, medical care is MUCH cheaper.
>>
There's usually a certification process that make it hard for new companies to enter the market and the certification process is usually expensive so manufacturers just pass the cost to consumers. Also, people tend to stick with brands/products so it makes it double hard to find a footing. You're not going to buy a product that's responsible for life and death just because it's 10% than the competition. Established companies know this so they charge a premium to fatten up profits.

Also the sticker price on most medical equipment is just a starting point, you usually haggle it way down (or at least your insurance company does). Only an idiot pays sticker price for anything, medical or not.

/x/ is all worked up about some psychic predictions where the guy posts the predictions in an encrypted .zip file about the most prominent news story for the coming month, then provides the password at the end of the month.

>>>/x/17980875

In April 2016 an encrypted zip file was posted online. I downloaded it on May 2 2016. EgyptAir flight 804 crashed on May 19 2016. In the encrypted zip file are PDF files, which contain hand written info describing a man-made structure falling from the sky and crashing, and mentions a jet specifically. So a bit spooky. Pic is from the PDF.

The files are encrypted with WinZip AES. Does anyone know if it's possible to decrypt different data based on the password provided? For instance, if you provide one password you get the "airplane crash" PDF files, and if you provide another password you get the "earthquake PDFs" and so on. Is that possible with .zip and AES?

No, don't think so. If you use standard software to decrypt it, there's pretty much nothing that can be done to fake it.

Just tried an ideapad 100s at my local jb hifi and it's performing really well for loading up websites and general use.

Is it worth it getting a netbook like this to use on the go? I haven't had a laptop since my old c2d one died and that barely got an hour battery life per charge.

What are some similar options in price, battery life, and specs?

Things I liked about the ideapad 100s
>nice keyboard, didn't feel cramped
>the external build felt nice and solid despite the cheap plastic look
>touchpad was pretty smooth(it was a little small though)
>low price tag
>small and portable

Battery life is also supposed to be pretty god tier.

Are there any equivalent extensions to those I use on Firefox for Safari on Mac ?

>he uses Safari

I typically use Firefox but it eats battery like crazy on my rMBP and makes it run exceptionally hot. Seriously Safari uses around 4 times less power especially when on youtube or any kind of streaming site so I'm kind of forced into it when on battery. (Chromium based browsers are just as bad.)

The extensions I typically use on Firefox are:

uBlock Origin
NoScript
HTTPS Everywhere
Refer Control
Greasemonkey

I use uBlock since uBlock Origin isn't available but what I'm really hoping to find is something similar to NoScript.

If you're that obsessed with security then why use Safari?

Isn't what you were asking for, but try Min Browser on Mac if you're concerned about battery life.

It's just chromium, but shittier.

JS blocker is similar to noscript, also there's tampermonkey

> triple or quadruple booting

...why?

I'm assuming it's the same process as dual booting, except with three or four OSes. Should be pretty easy if you know how to dual boot.

BSD is pretty unnecessary and hard to install - if you really want to go for it, but there's not a whole lot of reason aside from the god-tier package manager.

Is your PC too shitty to run your other OSes in VMs?

I do not have javascript enabled, but this page

http://www.tweaktown.com/news/50835/heres-list-things-mans-sky/index.html

redirects me to a page that asks to enable javascript after 1-2 seconds

how does it do this? Does it automatically redirect by default, and it has a javascript snippet that stops the redirect or something?

it is pissing me off pretty hard because the page reads perfectly without javascript

I could wget it if I really wanted to read it with javascript off, but I have not seen this before
