So i bought this piece of shit and i can't get it to work for the life of me.
Whenever i try to use it on sites like Omegle there's just a black screen.
It says on the box that it doesn't need a driver, and it is Win7 compatible.
And the "manual" is goddamn useless, pic related.
Do you guys have any tips?

This.
A good webcam is literally like $30
>>54904194
It cost $20, you'd think it would atleast work
Take a screenshot of your computer RIGHT NOW. No editing, cleaning up, closing tabs, etc.
WHAT is on your screen NOW?!
>pic unrelated, i ain't showing u whats on my screen, im too scared i get doxxed
>>54904058
Just finished downgrading from 10. Just need to install my gaymes now.
gpu passthrough.
what are the options an individual has when it comes to gpu passthrough for windows virtualisation? obviously im considering it for games. i know my cpu can handle virtualisation but i have read in some places that you need two gpu and in others that you only need one? is anyone here running this kind of setup?
i would consider using wine but every test on winedb has come out as garbage for the game i play the most..
>>54904056
You do need two display adapters; one to drive your Linux display, and one to pass through to your virtualized Windows display. However, most modern CPUs have integrated graphics processors (which most people choose to use as their Linux display adapter). This is likely why some sources say you only need one graphics card.
Yes you need 2 GPUs.
One for the passthrough Windows machine and one for your host.
>>54904223
so if i run 4 monitors would i be able to have three running off the cpu on linux and 1 off the gpu in windows or would only having one port on the motherboard fuck me?
what does /g/ think about the Ballista Trinity
>>54903970
Good for gaming
>>54903970
I can't stare at that shit for more than a few seconds without my eyes starting to hurt.
>>54903970
what the fuck is that thing
Why do people still use Windows 10?
It's a surveillance heaven, it's forced down your throat, and it fucks up your perfectly working programs.
>dude, i have nothing to hide, what are you talking about?
Tell me that when your country is a 1984-esque hellhole, where anything that Big Brother doesn't like can get you a ticket to a slow and torturous death.
>you don't need to use it, you can revert to windows 7
And spend extra time reconfiguring shit.
I'm guessing even with Windows 7, Microsoft can backport the telemetry code from Windows 10, so there's no point using Windows if you don't want the NSA spying on you.
>b-but it's free
Free, as in freedom, or free, as in no charge?
It's the latter, obviously.
Can the shills convince me to start using Windows 10, and not Linux?
My question is why do people still bitch about Windows 10 when there are alternatives out there?
>>54903905
My guess is because Windows has the most programs out there, so programs + forced down your throat = People that are stuck with it.
>Why do people still use Windows 10?
Because it's good.
>It's a surveillance heaven, it's forced down your throat, and it fucks up your perfectly working programs.
Nope, you're just a paranoid little dumbass. Use Linux and give us a break.
>Can the shills convince me to start using Windows 10, and not Linux?
No one is going to convince you of anything, we don't give a shit. Go back to Linux and stop complaining every fucking day.
So turns out I found a feature in new versions of mpc-hc that I need, so I'm finally getting rid of this relic. What codec pack has replaced CCCP? KCP? Custom install? The only thing I needed was pitch corrected playback when increasing speed to watch all the lecture recordings I'm behind on.
>codec packs
>codec pack
>>54903736
>>54903741
I HAVE TO LEARN SO MUCH SHIT FOR MY EXAM THIS WEEK HELP. I don't want to spend hours configuring my codec pack, I'll do autist stuff after my exams thanks.
Am I the only one who doesn't see the point in 21:9 monitors? I see all these tech youtubers running these damn things for some reason.
>>54903597
increased working space, if you run programs that benefit from that.
7:3
>>54903621
I get that, but I'd rather run a 2560x1600 monitor for height when editing video, maybe two of them two get it real wide, but the 21:9 resolutions are just completely off the wall.
>walk away from laptop
>come back
>CPU fan is going fucking insane
>its really hot
>"wake" computer up by moving mouse
>immediately stops
Every single fucking time, every single mother fucking time i come back to my computer and its on but the screen is off, the fan is shitting itself, and then it slows down after i go to see what the fuck is using so much of it
I cant wait for my computer to die for no fucking apparent reason at fucking all
And reading forums, fucking everyone has this problem for windows 8 exclusively, and no one knows what the fuck it is
God fucking dammit what the fuck
pic fucking related my fucking face when
then throw your windows in the trash and switch to whatever linux distribution
It's the task scheduler's idle task for system maintenance; indexing files for search (shitty since Vista, much improved in 10), optimising .NET CLR assemblies, cleaning up Windows Update manifest folders that kind of shit.
It runs at Idle priority and is specifically told to only run when you're away from the machine, and stop when you're back.
I think you can even see it in the Task Scheduler?
You're welcome.
>windows
>ever
Emacs/Vimfags, explain to me how being able to instantly select any part of the screen using your mouse makes you *less* productive than scrolling around with your keyboard.
Hint: you can't.
>>54903425
Because you're a NEET
>>54903425
it doesn`t. also you can do this in vi{m}/emacs too
>>54903425
>that pic
My replacement Iphone 5s says my sim is unsupported and wont do anything but the set up screen. How do I fix this?
>>54903107

Does anyone know where I can get a JP IP address or how to connect to one?

I'm just trying to watch some JP livestream but gaijins can't.
>The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0)
>Only recommends distros that actively reject proprietary software
Why is this retarded hypocrite praised again?
because you can't use proprietary software as you wish, for any purpose
he only recommends distros that reject softwares aganist freedom 0.
>>54903006
But then I can't use those distros as I wish.
>>54902946
How is that hypocrisy?
>>54903020
>But then I can't use those distros as I wish.
Yes you can. He doesn't recommend it, but that's not the same as stopping you.
I have nothing but hundreds of lines of random day to day notes involving tech, food, general life/entertainment info, and more random garbage in a txt file sitting on my desktop. Discussion on how you guys manage this kind of stuff?
>>54902942
>Simple, categorized, hierarchical notes
Org-mode.
>Pictures, links+automatic screenshots of linked pages, sketches, typography-dependent text, anything more complicated than the above and needs to be shared between devices and organized via topic with links to other pages or topics
OneNote. It also had OCR, which makes it convenient for taking pictures of text in books and being able to search for it later like it was regular text input manually. Only con is that I can't use it from emacs or export easily.
Notes.app desu
>>54902942
same question here.
Except I have hundreds of post its on top of that and also a list of about 200 threads on /g/ which I have yet to read through from archive. fugg.
why do use linux?
>>54902852
Freedoms
better question
why do you use windows? why do you want to pay for your computer's basic software, while there's free alternative? ubuntu is enough for daily use, and you can run every microsoft office version. linux is useless at games but at least now steam supports it. if you are a faggot who spends 5 hours a day gaming go with windows.
>>54903085
Because Linux has no Foss alternatives for primvera and remote SAP you shitwad
Fad or Fab?
But laptops are portable.......so what's the point of this shit?
>>54902732
Its so small, it fits in your asshole :*)
>>54902749
They're smaller than laptops
