I've been playing with RAM timings, using SuperPi as a benchmark. I'm getting a strange result on these timings.
1866MHz 9-10-11-27-44
1866MHz 11-11-11-27-44

11-11-11 is consistently getting a faster result than 9-10-11, even though the timings are looser. Can this be explained?

I'm looking to purchase a surge protector + backup battery (UPS?), but I'm concerned about the wattage.

My desktop computer has a 900w PSU for two 980 titans, and on top of that, I'd like to keep my three monitors on as well. I've found plenty with four battery powered slots, but the wattage of the batteries are rarely above 800w. So I'm wondering if I need to find a battery with 900w+ or if a 400w would cut it sense 900w is probably too much anyway.

So I want to try a weird set up, but bear with me because there's a reason for it.

I have a PS3 which I want to connect to my laptop via ethernet. It's a crossover and I've already tested it and it works.
Now, since the PS3 can only have 1 active connection(from what I know at least) I won't have Internet access, since I usually connect it wirelessly.

My question is, can I connect the PS3 to the laptop via ethernet, set up the PS3 to connect to laptop but set the gateway to the router, then have the PS3 connect to the router and the Internet over the laptop's wifi? Along with that, I need to be able to 'host' some kind of streaming server with the PS3 would pick up over ethernet

tl;dr - can I tether my PS3 and laptop so the PS3 uses laptop's internet?

Recently (in the past 6 months) my 2-year-old PC (besides my new-ish R9 390) has been acting up. Every so often, usually AFTER I finish playing a game, the monitor will either: go black, but still on, OR just go into power save mode. During this, the sound will stutter for a few seconds and then cut off. The only way to get out of this is to hold the power button and re-turn it on.
My thought is: why wouldn't the PC just do this during actual high-intensity gaming sessions, rather than after?
How would one go about fixing this, too?
>>
>>55969816
The only good alternative is to use timers with interrupt that tell the OS to continue the program at a particular time. Sleep effectively does this, by setting a time at a particular number of seconds in the future.

The videos are MP4s and WEBMs. I tried playing them on VLC and they kind of work. Sometimes on VLC they will stutter and give me a black screen for a few seconds before returning to normal.

Python is the absolute easiest it gets, but outside of tinker toys it has basically no application. Java is, as you probably know, the absolute most popular language on the planet, albeit mostly because it can run on everything from your PC to a calculator. Java is probably going to be ideal for you though, as it will have some web application, and will prepare you for JavaScript which oh so many websites use. C++ for web stuff is... possible but very schinky. C should just be taken off the table.

I personally like Zoho a lot. I find it to be a good balance between usability and privacy. Yandex is popular around these parts but I'd sooner trust Google with my info than Russians. Protonmail is very private but a bit difficult to use since it doesn't support any clients yet due to their top tier encryption. cock.li is private-ish but there's a chance that some smelly little man is going to read your emails and a chance that ZE POLIZEI is going to take the HDD your mail is stored on with absolutely no comment or chance of ever seeing it again. There's also rumors that it is being heavily monitored but that's probably skub. GMail is a comfy option if you absolutely love the botnet.

I use Zoho and Protonmail myself. Mostly Zoho.

What is better?
DDR4 or DDR4 SDRAM?
>>
>>55970692
A CPU/motherboard/RAM upgrade couldn't hurt, but since you're in a situation where it's practically all or nothing I'd say just keep chugging. You won't be suffering too badly.

I might be drawing a blank here but shouldn't all consumer DDR4 be SDRAM?

Aniversary update is a good example. They increased advertising, took away control of features and access to some registry/group policy settings. They realized people don't like cortana and often switch her off, so they made her always on and an inescapable part of search. And they took away the ability to run unsigned drivers which makes it harder for small developers to make VPNs and run specialized startup services. And they seem to be heading in the direction of being like the xbox where you get advertisements just for turning the thing on. With an older OS, they don't change very much, but with windows 10 microsoft is going to keep shaping it into whatever they want, and with 10 users have very little control over whether or not they receive updates so you kinda have to take whatever they shove out. But eventually we'll all have to switch to 10 or linux as our old hardware dies out.

I mean, pretty sure it's exactly the same. My understanding is that all DDR (Double Data Rate) RAM is SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory). There might be some supercomputers that are exceptions, but...

So tomorrow I have the chance to pick up a computer with 32GB RAM, i5-3570 3.4 Ghz and 128GB SSD and no dedicated GPU for £180.

What would be a good practical application for this comp? Would it work well as a server?

I've started playing around with Kali and working through a few pentesting books, would there be a use for this machine for that kind of work?

right click on steam, go to properties, go to compatibility, make sure "run as admin" isn't checked

steam will obviously trigger UAC when you install something, like anything else

You could try backing up the user folder and then reinstalling firefox. But as a general rule you should keep track of the changes you make so you can reinstall them later. There are a lot of reasons you might need to do that from time to time.

I traveled for work (90% travel time) for the past 10+ years. I recent quit my job and now I have the luxury of buying/building a desk for home use instead of using a gaming laptop.

I was browsing at New Egg and say they had a special on a prebuilt computer. I pulled the trigger on it because I thought it was a pretty good deal for an even $1000. I tried adding up the parts together and I couldn't build the computer for the same price, so I was just curious if I was missing something.

USB Deluxe Keyboard
USB Mouse
Windows 10 Home 64-Bit

I'm buying a new laptop and it seems perfect except for one thing, it's running Windows 10.
I'm not too paranoid, but from everything I know and have heard, I don't want to deal with it (plus everything I work with is with Windows 7).

My point being, if I were to install the Windows 7 OS over the Windows 10 basically doing a fresh install, would I be fine?

W10 is finicky so I'm not sure if somehow the

My headphones are starting to suffer from the jack bends, but it isnt that bad yet. On an xp system, they work fine, with a little crackle at certain positions. However, windows 7 will only detect the headphones if the jack is bent very precisely, almost impossibly so. It wont even transmit over them, instead preferring other attached audio output, unless so perfectly aligned.

I can solder on a new jack, but I wonder about this quirk of windows, and whether I should fuss with the possibility of fucking up the connection if I can work around windows' bullshit since the bend isnt that bad yet.

http://www.cnet.com/how-to/cortana-is-mandatory-in-the-windows-10-anniversary-update/

Cortana is on now, you just don't "see her". The program is running now and plugged in to your data but it appears like a simple search, with her standard off switch removed. There are some new advanced ways people have figured out to circumvent that for the time being. The point is windows is actively fighting a war with people to change their systems into whatever microsoft feels like, and it sucks that there's no control over that in the newer OSes.

So I get 3 out of 4 points demonstrably right, and because the 4th point relates to telemetry I'm a tinfoil? My point was that there was a component that people don't like, they switched it off, microsoft got annoyed at that, and took away the off switch. Now cortana is always running under the hood, eating up system resources. And you can track her development, how every time people developed a plugin to run her with google or another browser or modify her in any useful way, microsoft came in a month or two later and disabled that ability. So this is what we have to look forward to: a bunch of ever changing features we have no control over and no ability to disable. They've also auto-removed peoples personal applications like antiviruses, cleaners and pdf readers before

http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/x-programs-windows-10-may-remove-device/

and it's in their TOS so there's jack shit anyone can do about it. I'm not thrilled about telemetry but I understand it's purpose and I also realize that apple/google are doing similar things. And I learned a long time ago that information privacy isn't what most people are really looking for and I should prioritize user experience over that when making recommendations. Windows 10 has treated people like ass from the forced buggy upgrades on down. I appreciate that they have refined certain things, that on a good day it can be a fairly comfy OS, but I don't like the precedents they've set and where they seem to be going.

I think you're mad at /g/ in general more than me. I get that it's tough defending something when there's a lot of rage against it, and they don't pull any punches here. I also appreciate that you're trying to correct FUD as much as possible. That's a good thing. FYI 'her' is just what everybody calls it, I don't give a shit. If anything I'm vaguely annoyed that microsoft chose to use a character from a decent video game series as their mascot and have her dancing around like a hungry hooker in everyones faces, but that's irrelevant.

One really crafty idea the advertising link mentions is the idea of only doubling up the advertising for new devices and clean installs but not changing it if you are upgrading, so as to not arouse agitation. That's how microsoft likes to do things, little by little forcing people into things they don't want. And even though you can still disable the ads on lock screen (which they added 6 months ago) I still don't like the fact that you now can't disable the lock screen even on windows pro.

I don't want to get into some long winded argument. Again, I appreciate your standpoint and what you're doing. And I'm still going to keep helping people upgrade and downgrade and troubleshoot or whatever the hell they feel like doing. I just think that it's reasonable to say that there's is legitimate windows 10 specific BS that does tangibly affect the user experience, and for someone who doesn't want to deal with that windows 7 and 8 are still good options. At the same time I understand why you and many other people will like it. And maybe microsoft wont take it too farther. I just have no faith in them based on their track record on any of their products ever.

No. FX doesn't have iGPU for starters.

Also, AutoCAD isn't multithreaded. So you really want strong IPC cores because the program will only use 2 main cores. This limits you to Intel CPU. You also want the fast DDR4 because CAD and other number crunching programs usually utilize fast rams more efficiently. So probably an i3 6300 or something.

Get amazon to send out a replacement with the same model, unless there's a shitton of 1 star reviews. A few dud drives are inevitable, that's why you never trust a single person's input unless they've been in a position where they've had to work with many units.

I'd rather prefer a hard connection, yeah, but I can't afford it honestly and I don't know if I would even be allowed to do so.

Also, I've only ever heard horror stories about wireless internet. It's gonna be bad, ain't it? I assume the grad houses have wireless net (they also have wireless cable, not that I care) because they're not located on the actual campus itself.

The kernel itself? This may be of use to you. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_operating_system_kernels

Also, get a Windows machine and dual-boot an OOTB distro like Manjaro or something.

I'm going to be taking some engineering classes next semester, so I wouldn't say I'm going to be using linux specifically for that reason. I shouldn't have put too much emphasis on the themes, but its what caught my eye and wanted me to broaden my knowledge on different OS

Wireless is just prone to interference and will have slightly higher latency even under ideal conditions. Unless of course you're talking about they get their internet from wimax, in which case enjoy your very high latency and weather related problems.

qbittorrent

So make a decision off of that? You're pretty much asking for another review and you'd probably get mixed answers as well.

Slightly confused about symlinks (Debian8).

/home/user1/public_html/downloads should link to
/home/user2/downloads

user1@hostname$ ln -s /home/user2/downloads /home/user1/public_html/downloads

should do the trick right?
but what about permissions? does the web server need permissions for /home/user2/downloads or does user1 or both?

Kinda, yeah. I trust /g/ a bit more than others for reviews. It's like asking a friend for views on a product rather than a complete stranger, even if both are equally qualified.

That and it couldn't hurt at all to ask.

Is there an update for Windows 7 that allows you to set different file sizes in each folder? it's supposed to be in the explorer/file manager
>>
>>55976146
As far as non-anecdotal evidence there isn't a whole lot of hard data to go on
Backblaze is the only one that I know of that has released failure data on a large number of drives by brand, but their methods are not necessarily reliable indicators either.

I have a GTX960.

I want to use it with 3 monitors.

i am currently using HDMI and DVI. I have 3 other DP ports. The 3rd monitor is HDMI/DVI.

Do i need an Active or Passive DP to DVI or HDMI adapter?
>>
>>55976129
I'm not really familiar with halite so no.
>>
>>55975967
Unless you can think of a good reason to go with a different model, I'd stick with Hitachi. And Segate does have pretty high failure rates. It would be worse if you got a month or two in and then had your drive crash. BTW I hope you didn't decide to open the thing :^)

In the case that I want to uninstall my OS and use Windows 7, is it free for download from windows? If not, how reliable is a cracked ISO?

You should be able to use a passive displayport to either converter.

Well I found out you can bridge connections, so gonna try bridging the wireless and the wired connection.
>>
>>55976180
That almost makes me want to get another Hitachi but I'm not about to touch anything from them after the other was DOA. Once bitten, etc.

Seagate seems to be doing pretty well there though, at least in regards to 2016. I don't care that much if it starts failing, I have everything critical backed up either online or on a USB. I just need a minimum year and for it to be capable of working on my computer.
>>
>>55976205
Thanks. Ive had ATI cards before and they needed Active. However that may have been when i was trying to use Eyefinity?

If i want to game in glorious 3 screen action, would i still be able to use Passive?

You just plug one in next to the router and one by your computer. Done.

It sends the internet connection over your powerlines. It's a thing now.
>>
>>55976267
No you need a way to unstick that shift key of yours
>>
>>55976270
Wouldn't that be a DSL connection then? If that's what you're talking about then it's a bit clearer.
>>
>>55976258
The AC power wires in your house can carry RF frequency, and can act as a transmission medium for data. They are quite noisy, so it's often slower and more unpredictable than wifi, but it is a good option if you can't use wifi or have very thick concrete walls.
>>
>>55976258
Its just an adapter to send Ethernet signal over the building's electrical wiring. It can be better than wireless but it is not guaranteed to even work at all, depending on the wiring.
>>
>>55976298
>>55976302
They've come a long way. Unless your wiring is prehistoric you'll get a much better connection than wifi traversing floors.
>>
>>55976298
>>55976302
Ah okay. I'll just stick with whichever wireless card I find.

Also I have another question and this is very stupid so forgive my ignorance: Regarding wireless security, how do I prevent anyone from accessing my computer or seeing what is on my hard drives, or anything related? I don't even know for sure if these are possible but I'd like to be safe.

>>55976315
It's a one-floor anyway. From my understanding, it seems that it's an outside-source wireless (like satellite or something), as opposed to an inside-source like a router or something.

Using Windows 10 and I can't resize/move windows either with ALT+SPACE+S/M or manually from the context menu. Cursor centers either on titlebar/window, changes into move cursor but doesn't move or resize anything.

What did I do wrong?
>>
>>55976327
They can't unless you've shared folders or files
You can go disable remote control, set the connection as public, disable network discovery and sharing etc

Control panel -> network and sharing center -> advanced sharing settings
>>
>>55976327
I don't know what you mean by "outside source" but I would solidly bet there is going to be a router, unless your like stealing wifi from a nearby college or something.

And just disable network sharing

>>55976327
it being wimax or satellite internet has nothing to do with you needing to buy a wifi card.

Is it not possible anymore to MITM Android 6.0.1?
I've tried both Charles and mitmproxy, also tried setting the proxy on the phone through Wi-Fi settings and through other apps -- Charles and mitmproxy register a few requests (while the phone is always saying it's completely offline, ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED) and then the phone silently gives up on using a proxy at all.
