/sqt/ - Stupid Questions Thread

Hey /g/ I just purchased an SSD and I was trying to clone my HDD to it however it has an incompatible sector size (HDD is 512, SSD is 4096) and it won't clone onto the SSD because of this. How can I change the sector size on the SSD to match my hard drive? It has no files on it and I am willing to format it again if I need to.

Hey guys. I'm looking to start developing a desktop software as a side project that manages a businesses workflow / quoting stuff. What would be the best language for something like this? I was thinking Java for its robustness.

I know it's been done, I'm just doing it as an exercise, and wanted some opinions. What about using node-webkit?

>>56002674
Don't try to change your sector size. SSDs need their sectors to not be messed with. Find a better cloning program, like macrium

>>56002681
JavaFX*

>>56002701
Macrium is the program and it will not allow me to transfer them partitions because the sectors are different sizes.

>>56002723
Did you uncheck sector by sector clone?

>>56002738

I am not in a tech job, but I do use excel a lot. Making advanced spreadsheets and manipulating data/making buttons would be useful for me. I think learning Visual Basic would be useful for me, and I've already started to do some really intro stuff. Is learning this language worthwhile? And where should I learn it? Considering the only time I would need to code in my career would be in excel 99% of the time. It just seems that when I google stuff about vb, people say it's unpopular and that python is a better place to start...

reposting from last thread

win10 installed the anniversary update without my permission and explorer is now crashing and restarting every three or four seconds (it's also randomly taking focus away from firefox, hence that last unfinished post)

>>56002723
Then your program is shit, because that doesn't make a lick of sense.

I did exactly that by installing the full gapps and then removing gapps components until Maps didn't work anymore. It worked pretty well, and you do not need the app store this way. Be prepared for a sequence of quite a few reinstalls / backup recovery steps though.

No, I don't remember the exact list of components you need to keep, sorry.

>>56003752
I understand that. Obviously you wouldn't be saying that if you were getting a different error message. But the thing about error messages is that they're not magic. They're just the closest approximation of the problem the coder could anticipate when he was making the program. So you can't always trust the error message because sometimes a program will shoot out something unrelated when things fail. This sounds a lot like one of those times.

How common is a faulty mobo? I built my first gaming rig and mine wouldn't boot so I assumed something was wrong with the CPU. No bent pins, PSU passed pin test, GPU worked on my friends rig. That could only mean the mobo is fucked, right?

whats a good monitor for digital art? i think 27" is too big for one that will be some 2-3 feet from my face. is 21 or 23" fine?

Hey this really is a stupid question but I have to ask it

I am doing a homework assignment where I have a scenario where I'm setting up a network that consists of one modem, one router, one laptop, 3 pcs, and one printer.
I have to give different local IP addresses to all these devices.
How do local IPs get their assigned address? I can't just put random numbers that go 192.168.x.x right?
I am searching online and all I can find is articles saying "there are both local and public IP addresses" and nothing other than that.

Please help, I'm not asking for you guys to do it for me, I just want a link to the info that shows me what I need to know. What is the actual process that determines whether a PC is 192.168.1.8 or 192.168.1.5?

Why is my memory usage increasing, in a 24 hour period it goes from 30% at start up to 70% with only the programs open that it has at start up.

>>56004697
4K IPS panel, ~30"

27" is definitely not too large for 2-3 feet

>>56004745
An IP address is uniform for a single network. If these computers are connected to that single network, they cannot get their own IP addresses. Especially the printer. You're probably not getting results because this is not possible.

"Local" IP addresses mean your personal address at home, used by your router specifically. "Public" IP addresses are used at stores and shit, with no password to the WiFi or some shit so everyone can just connect willy nilly. You need proxy software to change an IP address, and maybe THEN you can get different proxies on each device. But not a printer.

>>56004806
thanks and sorry I should have clarified, I am asking about local IPs

I am retarded but not full retard, I know the difference between public and local IP, and static and dynamic.
I just don't know how local IPs are assigned?

When I output video to my TV from my laptop via HDMI cable the picture is crisp, and a 720p episode leaves black bars on the sides of the screen.

When I try output video to my TV from my new desktop via HDMI cable the picture appears blown up and a 720p episode touches the edges of the screen with no spaces like there should be.

A good program for testing your external drives temperature is called "Back of your hand". It's external hardware to the computer you'd be using the program on.

>useful software
Like what specifically? What is your rig used for the most?

Another tip: Depending on your hardware, a program will sometimes be installed by the manufacturer. Certain gaming motherboards have their own control center to control boot options, overclock settings, etc.

As low as possible.
It's pretty damaging, long term.
Long term is anything over half an hour, generous estimate.

Overheating your hardware is just bad in general. If you have to, get a box fan and put your drive right on top of it. Anything to keep the temp down, or you risk file damage.

>>56004969
If you're telling me to use the back of my hand to check the temperature, the back of my hand can't check what degree Celsius my hard drive is.

>>56005009
I'm telling you that a computer cannot detect the temperature of a component that isn't part of its construction. It'll be connected to your PC via USB most likely, so your computer will read it as a mass storage device at most.

Useful programs might include: Proxy Switcher, Total Uninstaller, AVG PC TuneUp, Ccleaner, PC Registry Mechanic, 7-Zip, uTorrent, CrystalDiskInfo (the most likely to give you temperature results), Speccy, etc.

My laptop wont turn on if the screen is all the way down. I push the button, but nothing happens.
>how can you turn it on/ff like that? There's no access to the button
The button is at the top corner, so if i introduce a thin needle just under the screen, I can push the button without having to lift the screen.
>why wouldn't you lift the screen up?
There's a couple of reasons, it doesn't matter.

Is this restricted by hardware?

>>56005184
I disagree, I have problems with the two resolutions interacting all the time. But I always solve it by changing the resolution on the TV itself. My monitor is 1920x1080, but it shows up super zoomed in on my TV too. Sometimes changing the aspect ratio fixes it too.

>>56005244
Laptops generally go into "sleep mode" when the lid gets shut. The settings to control what happens when the lid closes can be found (Windows 10) in Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > System Settings. It'll let you choose what each action does.

Is it possible to create a VR system that tracks both the headset (a phone to cut down on price per unit), and any other peripherals (controllers, foot/hand sensors) from pre-measured base stations via bluetooth?

The setup I'm trying to create here is essentially three stations that can send+receive bluetooth signals hooked up to a computer. the base stations send signals to the phone (used as a headset to save cost and drop the price of VR significantly), the phone responds. The base stations send timestamps for both the time sent and revived the computer, which does the math and tracks in real time. Problem is, I can barely code as it is, and it doesnt help that I'm using old smartphones as the base stations. The basis for tracking is just bluetooth signals though, record the time a packet of data is sent, record the time its received back, calculated distance from the base station with the times and the speed of the bluetooth signal, so it would be easy in terms of math.

Is this even a feasible set-up though? In theory, its both a far cheaper way to implement VR, and potentially can open up the possibility of having location tracking for both hands and feet as well as the head.

>>56006031
>Is it possible to make a copy constructor for complex data structures?
Yes.

>For example, if I made a skip list class is there a simple way to make skip list copies?

Whether or not it is simple is going to be related to how much of the work you've already done in your class. There's a good chance for code reuse and if the member functions for traversing and reading elements returns data that is straightforward to feed in to your member functions that add things to your data structure, then your copy constructor will also be straightforward.

Is possible to do the following?

You can try the toshiba drivers. Also I wouldn't bother with crimson if it's giving you problems. It's pretty much a beta, and I had some trouble with it myself. I don't think you're going to see a huge difference between drivers on an older card. Also if you happen to be using an intel processor I would make sure the integrated graphics have their driver installed before you install the AMD ones

I want to be able to access my home server from outside of my home network. I'm pretty sure I need a VPN but I don't know the details. can someone point me to something that can help?

is it possible to route a vpn through tor? I don't use tor very much but I read a lot of people who use it without the official tor browser, I guess it's possible to customize the connection to tor?

>>56006775
you can run tor over vpn or vpn over tor, and they accomplish two very different things. They have a help page describing it, but if you have to ask here you're probably nowhere near ready to do either

>>56006747
You don't need a VPN, although it wouldn't hurt
You just need some static address, be it a static IP or a domain, and forwarding the appropriate ports to your server.

>>56006747
SSH with port forwarding is enough.

Also need some help with grub and UEFI >>56006730

Should 720p video reach the edges of a 1080p TV?

>>56006747
you can set up a VPN server for that but if you just need access to that one machine it'd be a lot simpler to just ssh to it. if you need files off it you can use scp, or set up something like proftpd. Either of these are a lot easier than setting up an OpenVPN server, you just have to edit some config files and open some ports.


>>56006775
you can connect to a vpn and then connect to tor through it, or connect to tor and then connect to the vpn from the tor exit node.

these accomplish different things, security wise.

is there any way to save my SD Card? it just randomly got corrupted, everything was working completely fine. i noticed some of my music wasnt playing and then i woke up this morning and it was all gone. when i insert it into my PC the only option is to format it.

>>56007058
Photorec if you're trying to recover files

>>56006663
1. attach drive to a vm
2. boot a linux livecd in the vm
3. transfer files over network to the vm

>>56006972
watts is an instantaneous value
watt-hours is a measure of capacity, and is used for batteries and the like

it doesn't make sense to use watt-hours on for example, a desktop power supply

running a 309W device for an hour will use 309Wh of energy

>>56007127
Isn't the standard in kW?

>>56007102
They're idiotproof. Go daz for 7

>>56007139
No, most computer power supplies are less than a kilowatt.

>>56007139
kW is just kilowatt (1000 watts)

which unit is used depends on the application

You can get a wireless keyboard/mouse combo for $20 on a good day.

>>56007151
I dont understand how this works when I dont have an OS to boot he program on on the machine.

>>56007276
When you're installing Windows you have an option to enter your activation code later. So after you go through the brief install, and before you update Windows, you plug a flash drive into your computer with Daz loaded onto it and then you run the program, which will trick Windows into thinking you're genuinely activated.

>>56007306
Ill keep that in mind but for now Ive gotten a cracked version of windows 7 premium to begin the installation process from a USB on my new machine. Only issue is the installer is in Dutch or some shit. Does this mean its going to install a dutch version of windows on my machine or?

And if so can I change it?

>>56007372
You should be able to install new localizations and switch later but I'd just go back and get the right version.

>>56007384
I lied, says Im missing a driver or something from the USB. Or at least thats what I got through google translate from Dutch.

>>56007470
Are you using a Skylake processor? i3, i5, etc.

>>56007556
Indeed I am, 6600k, why?

>>56007611
Skylake and Windows 7 don't play nicely, you should check your motherboard manufacturer's website to see if they released a fix for it.

For instance Gigabyte released this patch for my motherboard: http://gigabytedaily.blogspot.ca/2015/09/having-trouble-installing-windows-7-by.html

>>56007611
Skylake (or more precisely Z170 and friends) drop support for the version of the USB protocol that the Windows 7 installer speaks. Partly Intel did this because old installers like this are the only thing that needs it (Windows 7 or any other OS will speak new-USB fine once it's installed and has been given drivers for it) and they don't want to maintain it anymore, and partly because Intel and Microsoft depend on each other in a big way and Microsoft does not want installing non-10 versions of Windows on modern hardware to be something that people do, so they're happy to make it difficult.

Solutions to this problem:
Check your mobo maker's manual. Some of them implemented the missing functionality specifically to let people install 7 on their hardware. This is probably a toggleable BIOS setting, if you have it.
If you don't have it, you need to install 7 from a DVD and not from USB. You'll need a PS2 keyboard, also, 7 won't see any USB devices until you can boot up and install drivers. You *may* be able to get around this with a USB PCI-E card. That's a guess on my part though.

My desktop won't boot with a displayport cable plugged into the GPU.

>>56008214
Nah, I have no reason to. All of my needs are fulfilled with my current selection and installing gentoo would require me to take time away from my preferred hobbies, which would mean I am putting time and effort into an area that I have no interest in pursuing.

>>56006802
It's the same ratio (16:9) , so yes it will be scaled up / "stretched".

>>56006686
It depends on the implementation.
For example in Unity you have a model that serves as the map. So in that sense, it's "downloaded".

Some games have maps pre-baked, like Unreal, it contains the lightning calculated, the navigation mesh, all kinds of stuff. Of course the textures and sounds are taken from the other folder/files, but the maps are "baked".

Some games use generated maps like Minecraft. It's got the code how to generate.

Well, so you say the headset tracks movement and shit. You need a set of gyro and all that. Or a modern phone strapped on the VR to do that for you.

There are no major titles that benefit at all from dx12, and Vulkan is supported on 7.

Yes he needs to install boku no pico.

what are you plugging it into? that cable is only designed for hardware that can output composite/s-video over its VGA port

Is the difference in boot speeds between a M2/NVM drive noticeable in comparison to a regular SSD?

Why does a strobing backlight improve motion clarity? I just don't understand why having the backlight constantly turn on and off is better than leaving it on 100% of the time.

My laptop
>hardware that can output composite/s-video over its VGA port
What kind of hardware would that be?

>>56008704
You time the backlight being on with when the pixels have finished transitioning, so you avoid the blur effect of pixels transitioning. Persistence of vision makes it so you don't notice it flashing

>>56008763
>What kind of hardware would that be?
not sure, probably weird professional gpus and projectors, they do stuff like this

Read the comments. A lot of times with these passive adapters they're meant for one specific purpose, and won't necessarily do the things you think they will.

Is it worth upgrading from Mint 17.3 to 18?

The OSI layer model is irrelevant, yet I always see people talk about it.
Why? Why not just talk about TCP/IP

I came across a page today where all instances of "ft" in any word was replaced with a little picture of a pencil, but only in Firefox. Other browsers had the letters normally.

The fuck is that shit? How do I fix it?
Is it related to when Firefox sometimes displays a box with 4 letters/numbers arranged in a square?

overdrive may help reduce ghosting, but is a tradeoff, and otherwise doesn't really help motion quality

Most major releases from microsoft are getting dual releases on Xbone and win10 going forward. For someone who wants the exclusives without wasting cash on pleb console it's a pretty good way to do it.

I mean I've found it invaluable in gaming, I was just trying to understand the downsides a little better. Thanks!

Ayy senpai I had a retarded idea that's kinda working

I got a seedbox for life off of cloudatcost on sale and it's been working a treat for years, however the storage is a bit lacking and today I had the horrid idea to just make a shit ton of google accounts and mount all the google drive accounts on it for more free storage for life, and it's been going well and I'm using https://github.com/astrada/google-drive-ocamlfuse for the mounting however transmission doesn't recognize the files in there.

I just wanna upload from these drives, but when I cp the files over (works a treat) and smack verify it gets about a second into verifying and then pretends I never hit verify in the first place (in transmission web interface).

What gives?

Also as payment have an OC reaction pic I made in response to a really cute girl with disgustingly phat tits.

I'm running a dual boot with Windows 7 and Ubuntu, but I want to switch over to Arch on the linux partition. Ive got a couple things I'd like to clear up first though

>I'd like to keep the files I have in my home directory
is it possible to do it without just moving them to an external HD then back onto the computer after installing Arch? I'm guessing it's not but I don't know 100&

>How hard is it to not fuck up my windows partition while installing?

Windows 7 is pretty forgiving. If something goes wrong just use easybcd to write new boot files, assuming you didn't just up an format it.

It has one fan header aside from the CPU fan, so 2 with a splitter, 3 if you split the CPU header

Thank you. What you call the fan header is actually the chassis fan connector, isn't it?

Hello /g/

My wifi adapter keeps disconnecting and it's really annoying.

I have tried updating the drivers (including uninstalling them too) AND fixing the power settings - but it keeps disconnecting.

What do I do?

>>56009563
Get a new adapter

>>56009609

Is it the adapter though? I've only had issues since a system update.

But yeah might do.

I just ordered a 6700k to replace my 6600k.
Was this a bad idea and should I cancel it?

I'm doing it because I don't want to replace my CPU for another 6 years or so and thought the i7 would be good for that. The less min fps drop in games is nice too. I'm scared of the heat it'll put out though. That's why I got rid of my fx9590 in the first place

>>56002634

Is there any way to extract timecode information from QuickTime 7 Pro? I need to be able to copy the current timecode to my clipboard. I've considered using an OCR program on the timecode readout but that seems really inefficient.

>>56011112
Unless you render or do some heavy stuff you might barely see a difference, you should have spent the money on a SSD or something.

But if you do, it is worth it.
If you only play games then yes, cancel it.

>>56009722
Is it a cheap $16 TPlink adapter or a chink USB adapter?
