/sqt/ - stupid questions thread

Hey /g/.
I'm looking for software that will lock down a phone, and let me teamviewer (Or otherwise remote control it, or start an app) whenever I want. It's a BDSM thing, my sub's been asking me to set up something to control their phone. Any advice? It's abit of a hassle to keep on restarting TV

>>55624687
there might be some software that deals with stolen phones or something.. but alas I dunno it

is the endbranch instruction really that secure? can you still just jump into the middle of an instruction as long as the bits match endbranch? what about direct jumps?

The specs and prices of Xiaomi phones are appealing, but the Chinese botnet part is slightly offputting. Is there any way to avoid the spyware in these phones or do they have a hardware backdoor?

How does optical image stabilisation work on phones that support it? Is it hardware based where any camera app doesn't need to be programmed to utilize it? Can it be turned off and on?

you buy the phone
you make miui account
contact xiaomi that you want to unlock bootloader cause you foreigner
the account gets privilige to unblock bootloader on one phone per month
you unlock bootloader
you flash on awesome custom recovery - TWRP

you now can copy any custom rom on the phone and flash it
note 3 has cianogenmode, most people use xiaomi.eu global, which comes with removed chinese shit and western languages

there are other custom roms to choose from
anyway, I have hard time seeing botnet being left behind

Hey /g/ pls no h8 on FB
I need some help in the app on my tablet. It use to go WOOMY (splatoon) when I would get a notification, for some reason it went back to the *POP* sound. Help?

Can someone tell whats with private trackers and public trackers?

>>55625051
Disregard this /g/

>>55625062
private trackers are private and public trackers are public

I've just started reading the man page for "signal" because I saw it in Nethack's source code.

I'm going to fucking die here, aren't I? I'm going to be stranded forever because I can barely write fizzbuzz and I'll never memorize all this arcane bullshit.

>>55624882
From what I've seen on teardown videos on phones that advertise OIS, it's a physical thing.

>>55625062
>private
you register on some site and their torrents somehow start working
you got access to them
example: https://tracker.cztorrent.net/

>public
is what you most likely use, you dont need to register, you dont need to adhere to some rules, you torrent what you see and what works
example: https://kat.cr/

>>55625085
is there any pros and cons in both of them? like availability?
i dont care about piracy notice or anything i live in a third world shithole anyway

I have an archos 45 platinum with android 4.1.2. can i install a newer version of android on it? i need 4.4 for pokemon go

>>55625109
manpage says to use sigaction instead of signal for custom signal handling

>>55625131
Public trackers have issues with download speeds and retention, also DMCA notices, but are available to everyone

Private trackers you usually have to deal with maintaining ratio but you get excellent speeds and retention, but of course they are not always easy to get into.

>>55625144
I'm going to assume you don't know how to APK
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/niantic-inc/pokemon-go/pokemon-go-0-29-0-release/pokemon-go-0-29-0-android-apk-download/

Goto settings>security>install unknown sources
download that and you're set. tap it, and it will install.

It's not on the play store for kitkat and down. However, seeing as you said 4.1.2 you're in the MAYBE area, I don't know. You could attempt lollipop but it's iffy. Also, your phone wont be able to do AR cause it prolly doesn't have a gyroscope.

And if you decide to start today, Canada got it today and it's fucking over the servers hardcore. Niantics has no idea what they are doing.

I want to access my files and media on my home desktop from my laptop both inside and outside of my local network. I also want a way to work on my projects (games, web design, other media-heavy development) remotely. What's a good method to go with for setting up such functionality?

I believe that has something to do with it being 4.1.2 is why. If you can, go find lollipop.

To install you will need to turn off the phone, hold down the power and down volume to get into that mode and you should be able to install,

The download basically just stops after a while,the speed goes from 200kbs/s to 0 and "failed"
I just discovered that if I pause and restart the download it keeps going for a while then it stops and I can pause and restart and so on until it's finished but I won't always have that option especially with instalers
I have not tried any download manager nor have recorded a video before and it's going to be hard getting the software in the first palce but i'll se what I can do.

It's subjective in most cases, but it really depends on where you were starting and where you go to. If you're working with a shit panel with 10ms response time, literally anything is half or better is going to be a noteworthy improvement.

The only game I've played that it was an objective improvement was Stepmania. You start cranking up high note rates and eventually bottom tier panels leave everything a fucking blur which gets annoying at try hard tier levels of playing.

But in all cases you'll probably get blasted by some korean scrub who is 8 years younger than you and better reflex abilities such that the monitor response time won't really matter.

If you game, do not get that mouse.

Is it normal for bridging to knock speed off your net connection? I do not remember it being normal.

I just bridged my modem because I have a router with gigabit LAN and faster WLAN but now my speed is a good bit slower.

Is there any way to hex edit an .exe to make it use a certain number of cores each time you start it, instead of manually doing it via task manager? For example, people have reported that a majority of Deadly Premonition's instability comes from the fact that it does not play well with multicore CPUs, and is advised to use task manager to make it use two cores. Is there a way, or will I have to keep doing it each time I play it?

Agreed. Battery will always fail at the worst time, and why open yourself up to signal interference and hacking issues?

How can I get websites to stop bitching to me about my ad-blocker?

>>55627421
It shouldn't impact your speed at all. I'm just grasping at straws here but you could check that your router has the latest firmware update, do a hard reset and reenter your pppoe information.

>>55627445
There's a specific word for a combination modem/router: gateway. When people want to attach their own router to a gateway, it creates issues from double routing. When you disable the routing function of a gateway so it acts like a plain modem, that's called bridging mode. You usually lose administrative access to the gateway when it's in bridging mode unless you hard reset it.

>>55625683
I like the G303 personally. $40 on Amazon.

>>55627588
That's what a WLAN port is for

>>55627615
I don't know what you mean but I would like to

Any guesses on how long until more 1080s come back in stock?

>>55627615
You mean a WAN port, and you're wrong. You connect the gateway's LAN to the routers WAN no matter what, but if you don't enable the gateway's bridging mode your connection is suffering unnecessarily.

If I set up a limited user account on Windows and only use that account (never the admin account)will I be as safe as when I use Ubuntu?

If not, what vulnerabilities do I have compared to when I use Ubuntu? If there are too many just tell me the important ones.

>>55627588
Yep, latest firmware. As far as I can tell the gateway is in full bridging mode as well, since I set it up the way the manual says and it is no longer accessible via the network.

Strange stuff. Might try resetting both and retrying.

Linux has the benefit of "security through obscurity" meaning that while it technically has a similar attack surface to windows, there are a lot more target-able windows users out there, and therefor a lot more incentive for people to spend time and resources analyzing windows for new weaknesses, so a number of attacks like taking advantage of a malicious wifi connection or exploiting browser weaknesses to infect your system are more likely.

>>>/sp/

>>55627987
Well that depends on how you look at it. They go about security in different ways. Most of linux's software comes across automatically in repositories that are updated automatically.

It avoids a lot of worry from having to go to various shady sources to download things insecurely or let things get out of date and thus be subject to the latest discovered threats. The rate at which you get security patches is important, and factors in to peoples choice in browser and distro. Of course you also have PPA's in linux and the store in windows, but those are more exceptions to the rule at this point.

Windows has been trying to counter in ways that privacy conscious people might object to, but I can see their reasoning. They've appropriated android's tendency to hash upload any file you execute, and they're forcing system updates.

Don't underestimate the importance having the less common system. If you sit down at an airport and connect to the wifi, you're 10x more likely to be hacked if you are running windows.

>>55628189
You can install Chrome on Linux .

Okay. Just one more question. Do keyloggers work on Ubuntu?

>>55628001
>>55628145
I don't know about MVP fights specifically but I watch the PPV events with some friends occasionally and they get fullHD streams from some sub reddit.

>>55628244
sure, different keyloggers than Windows though, in general.

>>55628244
That's a broad question. There are keyloggers you could choose to install on linux with root privileges, and there are certainly attacks out there designed to get malicious ones to run, but for the aforementioned reasons you are FAR less likely to be infected with one.

>>55628262

hey /g/

so I'm building a PC, fans run okay when I start it up but I don't hear a POST beep - just silence. My monitor doesn't detect any input.

It's all new parts (HDD, mobo, CPU, graphics, RAM) except for the PSU which is old (I hoped that I wouldn't have to buy a new one). The PSU is a Corsair TX650 which is probably about 6 years old now. Is my problem most likely a PSU issue and I just have to get a new one?

My monitor is not saying no input detected, but it's just a black screen.

Recheck all your cabling, especially to your monitor and on your graphics card. If that doesn't help, try removing your graphics card an see if you can get your OS up and running without it

>>55625883
4hrs and not a single reply, guys you're troll traumatized this was a legit questions.

I probably should tell you I was looking for when rickroll started.

I have a VIM question.

So far I've only used the program for coding so I've been avoiding line wraps by simply using inserting newlines where appropriate.
Now I started using it to write textfiles for my blog. Now manually inserting newlines and using a placeholder to replace with <br> tags at runtime works, but it's inconvenient because going back and editing text fucks up the lines.
Can I set VIM to navigate wrapped single lines as if they were actual different lines? Lines get really long when they're whole paragraphs each and only being able to navigate those wrapped lines by going left and right is super inconvenient.

I think I've had that before, pretty sure it was just Firefox being retarded.

I wouldn't worry. From a little googling nobody seems to be concerned about it. My guess is that Firefox downloads files to /tmp/ before moving it to its cache, and it treats all non-text (i.e. images) as "bin".

Or maybe you're fucked, I'm not jesus.

Got an email from google saying they blocked some chink on an insecure device from getting into my account. Does that mean some chinaman actually had my password or is the email just security theater?

>>55628549
I've removed the gfx card but I'm still getting a black screen. No 'no input detected' or anything. But I'm still getting a POST beep with just the HDD, CPU, RAM

>>55628778
What does the beep code correspond to?

>>55628794
It's just a single beep which is normal, isn't it?

>>55628806
Should be. What does your mobo manual say? Also do any numbers flash on your mobo?

I opened a file that asked what program I would like to open it in. I chose firefox and set it to always open this program in firefox.

then it created an infinite number of tabs opening itself over and over and over and over until my computer fucked itself. How do I fucking change this back?

>>55628733
yes, someone accessed your account from a chinese IP.

>>55628827

>>55628938
Thanks for all the help. Just a quick question: how likely is it that this is caused by the old PSU?

>>55628911
Also your answer didn't really help much, I can't find shit

>>55628951
I guess it would depend on how old it is. PSU's can deteriorate and cause weird issues. Also if the wattage on the PSU is low it might not be enough to power your new system. But it could easily be something else too.

>>55628992
Also if it's so old you're having to use adapters to connect things in I would consider that a red flag

do you have any good software to make a proxy?

Glass was never supposed to go public like it did. It was just some small research project and then one of the guys on the team dropped it on the media and everybody went nuts. They never had the tech or the resources to do what was promised and they knew it. Google just had to smile and wave at everybody until they could push it under the rug.

I don't think my motherboard has any available drivers for USB type c, which is a problem since W7 doesn't natively support it and the phone I've been looking at uses it. Am I a total retard? If so, please list the ways in which I am.

USB c is a physical connection, not a standard. USB 3.1 that usb c carries is backwards compatible.

This is really anti-intuitive, so it might be worthy of the thread subject, but is it possible for a faulty network adapter to screw with the modem and/or router? As in, kill the connection for the modem, or knock the home network offline momentarily? This adapter has felt like its on its last legs for the past couple of years (it's really old; only reason why it's not gone is because it took a break from acting up when I actually had money to spare, and there were more pressing things to buy), and we've had problems with several unstable routers and connections in a row at this point.

I suppose that the alternative is that we just have really incompetent IT guys out here, which isn't unlikely since this region isn't exactly known for its thriving tech sector, and that I have bad luck with buying lemon routers.

i wouldn't recommend multi gpu unless you desperately want top tier 4k gaming with dual gtx 1080, otherwise i'd recommend a single gtx 1080

micro atx usually isn't all that small, you can check out corsair 350d, or if you go single gpu and want something smaller you can check out ncase m1 (it's mini itx but you can get motherboards with large cpu sockets even on mini itx)

if you go multi gpu i think you should have watercooling in a case like 350d or bigger

uninstall one of them.
best to keep avira and remove mcafee.

keeping both they'll fuck each other up constantly, slowing down the system significantly.

Well it's not my computer. She has an active subscription to mcafee.

i have this old netbook with a dead harddrive (Asus 1015PEM, see pic for specs)

would it be worth replacing replacing the HDD with some cheap 30gb SSD and running a lightweight linux distro on it or am i better off buying a new laptop? would mostly use it for google docs, browsing, TV shows, and programming

also what should i check for to make sure the drive is compatible with the laptop?

The drive needs to be a 2.5". Mostly all SSD's are that size.
But a new laptop would be better

I used some software to sort my images by resolution (I had intended to only sort my wallpapers), but I fucking forgot something, and I now have a folder with 10000 folders in it.

straight to the point; I want to move all of those images back into a single folder, and get rid of the leftover folders

How can I do that?

Where can I buy computer parts? My PC just died (I think it's the mobo but I'll need to troubleshoot it later) and I only have cash.

>>55632922
which country?

>>55632943
US, south west florida. There's a best buy but they don't carry anything.

Also I might as well ask for help with my current pc. I got an error noise and my computer hung, I restarted it but the monitor doesn't detect a signal and the M+KB lights don't come on. The PC lights come on as do all the fans. I tried plugging the monitor directly into the mobo to see if it's the gpu but still nothing.

Thinking I should just get a pre-paid card and buy the parts.

I have cash on hand but not in the bank.

Anyone know if you can use prepaid cards as soon as they're activated in store? I'm pretty sure you can but it's been years since I used one.

>>55632962
Any error codes/beeps?
Some mobo's have a simple lcd mounted that shows codes on boot.

>>55633065
Nope. No noise at all aside from the low hum of the fans. It sounds normal. I checkde all the cables to make sure they're secure.

nothing you could do then.

like a cdn or cache server that sits between the internet and the actual server, and somehow the proxy got blacklisted

Is there something you can do with old phones outside of throwing them away? I've got 2 S5230s from years ago.

Having trouble making second monitor work

Monitor 2 is primary screen connected by DVI it works and shows a display

Monitor 1 is secondary, connected by HDMI the computer recognizes it and knows it's there but there's no display showing, I turn it on and the monitor tells me "no cable connected"

When I take screen shot you can clearly see that the screen is there, but it's just not turning on

Now I've moved the DVI cable over to the other screen and it works

I've also changed out HDMI cable and still nothing though

So screen connected by DVI doesn't matter which one will work
Screen connected by HDMI doesn't matter which cable or screen won't

Is this a win10 issue, a driver issue, a hardware issue?
