/sqt/ - Stupid Questions Thread

Well my post was right before the new thread so I'm reposting it. dwi.

Hi guys, I want to do something a little complicated.

I want to make an executable where you can just pass a string as an argument, and it will return an image in which this string is rendered in a specific font, size, with a rectangular fill behind it.

I can probably figure out the code if I'm just pointed towards the best tool/language/IDE that will allow me to make such a program quick.

Whether it would make it work on UNIX or Windows, I can probably work with it either way.

Thanks.

Ok, here's one that shouldn't be too hard.

I have a Sapphire Radeon 7850. Recently I've notice bad screen tearing in everything from games to video playback to Youtube. I poked around for how to fix this, and the only thing I found was to turn on "triple buffering" in the GPU settings. So I did, and that didn't fix shit.

Has anyone else had this problem with AMD cards before? If so, does anyone know a fix for it? There's really not a lot of results out there.

>>56060843

>>56060931
>I want to make an executable
why not use existing ones?
imagemagick can do what you want.

I have a usb to micro sd adapter in my thinkpad x220 and it just boots to a black screen if I don't remove it while booting. Anyone know what could be causing this or how to fix it?

>>56060931
you can do this with OpenCV, there are OpenCV APIs for C++, python and Java
you can probably do it without any libraries in Java which would be cross platform aswell

>>56061113
Go into your bios and change the boot order so that your main drive comes first

Do C# structs (as basic encapsulation for variables) take up memory beyond the variables themselves, or is it just readable fluff replaced during compilation?

Have you updated the driver recently? If so, try reverting back to a older one. If not, try updating to the latest one. Be sure to run DDU first.

Since v-sync isn't helping, it's not actually screen tearing, but more likely an issue with 3/2D acceleration.

If it comes down to it, your card might just be dying. It is pretty old at this point.

Pic related, what does it mean they want the applicant to have experience in developing with the Linux kernel and have knowledge of the Linux kernel? I'm assuming I can't just say, "Oh yeah, I use Ubuntu, I know tons about Linux." What are some things I could be doing on my own now that would give me some background in these qualifications?

Is this really a sign that my GPU is dying? That doesn't.....sound right. I mean with CPUs and GPUs it's a pretty binary thing, right? I mean it either works or it doesn't. Not like some gradual process where shit starts to break down.

What is a good windows IRC client?

irssi seems to necessitate installing all of Cygwin which I don't particularly want, and Hexchat seems kind of shady.

>>56061866
I've found it to be kind of the opposite. I usually won't wake up and find a dead GPU, it's more like I will notice a symptom and it will be sporadic at first or only when the card is hotter or under a heavy workload and then eventually it will be so bad that I switch back to integrated till I can get a new card.

I'm building a new Skylake computer tower. New motherboard, CPU etc. Same hard drive case and power supply (800 watt).

In order to save money, I'm moving the hard drive that is in the Windows 7 computer I'm currently typing on and I'm moving that hard drive into the new computer and I'm installing Windows 10 on it. I have purchased a retail copy of Windows 10.

I realize that I can't simply move the hard drive as is. Windows won't let me do that. It will recognize that it is connected to a new motherboard. It's an OEM license of windows 7, so I can't legally move it. I'm not interested in illegally moving it. I've already paid for a new license of Windows 10.

How do I move the files that are currently on the hard drive in my current computer onto the wiped hard drive that will have a fresh installation of windows 10 on it if Windows Easy Transfer is not available in Windows 10?

>>56061973
Hm ok. It's really fucking weird, the screen tearing is a consistent pattern; it's always one tear that starts at the bottom and slowly makes its way to the top, and it repeats every 20 seconds or so.

Hey guys, normiedudebro 9000 here.
I know next to nothing about computers and programming, even though I feel that it's a beautiful and interesting subject I'd love to learn more about.
But as it stands I know nothing, and I've just bought a new laptop. Win10, pretty bog standard stuff.
I wanna treat this one right guys, so what anti-virus/malware programs should I get and which precautions should I put in place to make sure I make this one lasts as long as it can?

>>56062200
Well the easiest method to understand would be to simply copy all of your files onto an external drive and then copy them back after you've finished installing. This would also be a great time to consider buying a small SSD and using that as your system partition instead. I highly recommend that. If you are determined to keep using that drive as a primary you could just shrink the partition that windows is currently on and delete the system/program files, then simply install the new windows to the blank space. But if you care about your files you should always have a backup either way, especially when you're changing up your system.

>>56062388

My brother is giving me some of his PC parts to help me start off a build. I took this Speccy screenshot of the parts he's giving me, but I've just found out he overclocked the processor to 4.5GHz and Speccy isn't showing it.

Are these temperatures not a godsend for an overclock? Or does it only show the effects when in game?

>>56062388
Not that anon, but what software do you use to back up your files?

What's a good RAM brand? I bought a quad kit G.Skill RAM for my I7 6800K, but it refuses to boot if enable the XMP profile. I'm going to return it and get new one.

But which brand is good, /g/?

>>56062218
Object oriented means you design everything as objects which has functions.

Functional programming means you use functions on data structures.

imperative programming is when you think of your project as a series of states.

It is very useful to try to make an application where you solve the same problem using different paradigms.

C++ is a good entry point.
You can switch styles as you like.

If you want an easy assignment, make an image program where you load an image and apply a filter.
ppm files are easy to work with.

Macrium Reflect lets you make a compressed system image and schedule incremental additions to it, and teracopy lets you copy large directories and verify nothing has changed. You can also try freefilesync.org which is open source and wiki approved.

How do I convince my dad not to go for the top-spec XPS 13 for "future-proofness" and tell him to go for the lower spec 1080p model because he'll appreciate the battery life more than an i7?

I'm a yuropoor looking for a lapto with very specific requirements:

-at least 1080p (16:10 would be even better, 4K is way overkill though) matte IPS (still unsure about size, probably under 17")
-CPU: i7 HQ (It needs to not throttle in 30C environment)
-RAM: 8GB of whatever
-GPU: exclusively integrated
-SSD: 125gb is plenty, M.2/PCI-e only, fuck sata, all HDD/Hybrids can go die in a fire
-A fuckton of battery. Ideally this puppy should be able to stream 1080p at non-shit brightness for 24h straight while running prime95.
-Preferably a keyboard with dedicated multimedia buttons (no fn bullshit) with dedicated home/end buttons. Numpad is not required.
-Windows 8.1 64 pro
-Bluetooth 4.0, usb 3.1, Thunderbolt 3 would be fantastic, and a good ethernet+wifi adapter.
-Optical drive, card reader, soundcard, etc. are completely irrelevant.

Where the fuck do I find this, /g/?

How do I download more dedodated WAM?

>>56062767
You're asking the impossible.

How do I make my battery last longer at work? I have to keep my GPS on. I already use Greenify, and my phone is undervolted.

>>56062782
I've seen some pretty good options but it's always either only a U-version cpu or a fucking 960, or an obligatory hdd, or shitdows10 only etc.
I've seen all of this on different laptops, just not in a single dank package.

>>56062578
At this point it takes very little to run a snappy device for light web browsing etc. If it's current gen you could go as low as an i3 if you're strapped for cash, although I would recommend an i5 just for some wiggle room in case you find yourself wanting to do a bit more with it. And try to get one that's a 4000 or above. For ram I would say aim for 6gb or above unless you really need to budget. The extra wiggle room is nice. The type of ram you get isn't going to be too important. Get an SSD for snappiness.

>>56062833
Ok thanks dude. What are some brands that I should avoid? Wanted to buy an asus or lenovo but I saw that lenovo is not good except the thinkpad. Is that a meme? How is HP and Dell?

Should I go for the i5-6600k or the i7-6700?

I need to stick to it until at least 2020 because Kaby Lake won't support Windows 7 and AMD processors still have a long way to go.

>>56061415
start using arch (with a very minimal DE) as your everyday system.

Make a system from scratch by compiling a kernel, busybox and making a bash script init.

>>56062818
Yeah they're moving the fuck away from windows 8 and there's always been less selection if you're set on an HQ. I think you're going to have to pick something close and do some work on it. You can look into the downgrade rights option

>>56062850
I can't stand the idea of buying a lenovo since their triple malwaregate fiascos. Physically they're a good deal, but damn. Dell and asus usually put out good hardware, hp had some poor construction issues a while back but I think they've cleaned up their act. I'd rely on the reviews of an individual device more than brand loyalty.

I started using Dropbox in Ubuntu, recently.

I much prefer Ubuntu, but I can't figure out how to designate the different folders in my home folder (Documents, Pictures, etc.) to be synced, it seems like it's forcing me to make a single folder (called "Dropbox") and save everything in there.

It's not a crippling issue, but it's irritating. In Windows I could just right-click a folder and select "sync with dropbox." Wondering if there's a way around that.

Is using Telegram without the secret chat mode still safer than using FB messenger or Whatsapp?

>>56063411
It translates to a pretty big difference in screen real estate, makes working on documents and web browsing a lot easier. I would go at least 1600x900 if you can swing it, 1080 is ideal.

>>56063479
Windows sucks at shrinking partitions, especially if there happens to be file fragments there. You could try defragmenting, but really your best bet would be to use a third party tool like EaseUS Partition Manager.

because for the same price, someone would rather buy a card with TWO fans instead of just one.

Most 1060s barely get above 60*c. That is WAY overkill.

>>56063721
I'd say laptops are more likely to break down than desktops by nature, but if you're careful with it physically, I'd expect it to still be pretty snappy with the basics in 5 years.

That is a low end CPU but the point of it is that it consumes a really low amount of power.

Is not a powerful CPU, if you want a fast PC get a high end SSD like the 850EVO.

I've been running the exact same PC build for 7 years (I haven't upgraded anything in 7 years, that's a surprise to me too).

My computing habits haven't changed over the years. My PC serves the same purpose that it did when I first started using it.

Yet my PC has actually gotten slower. Sometimes it'll freeze, albeit momentarily. What's exactly happening? It's quite possible that some of the programs & software that I use don't work the same after it's been updated, but even things that don't get updated are noticeably slow. Why is that?

everytime I try learning how to code I get bored in a week. How do I get motivation and stop being a useless piece of shit?

HDDs wear with time, they also get damaged too with the time.
Applications and browser get more recourse intensive too.

>>56064870
Sometimes I'll have nothing active, and I'll open up Word, which I haven't updated in years. Sometimes it'll freeze for 5 seconds as soon as I open it. That's due to the HDD? I guess I could imagine it working that way. Moving parts do wear out, and I've been running this thing for 7 years.

Next question: How does one safely dispose of used HDDs? I have sensitive information on there, such as my resumes, tax/financial documents, receipts, and even a few work-related documents.

>>56065031

>>56065031
Download, install speccy and take a screenshot and post it here.

But yeah, usually a slow PC is because it is either weak, old or a damaged HDD.

Keep it and reuse it?
If you are paranoid there is a program called DBAN to safely delete files on paranoid levels.

In one you can upgrade to 32GB but only having one stick will run in single channel, with 4GB sticks you can get 16GB, but having 2 4GB sticks will allow you to use dual channel wich makes RAM faster.

if you use uefi and the usb stick has a gpt partition table you can just copy the files onto it after formatting it to fat32.
otherwise use rufus to make it bootable.

putting the iso itself onto the usb won't work, you need to put its contents there.

Windows 10 updated now i can't run any games or programs without the stupid UAC pop up. it didn't do this before, but now if i open my alarm clock program, or a game, or even my anti-spy/malware programs it pops up.

Why the fuck doesn't Arch Linux ARM allow me to connect to a network on my Raspberry Pi 3? I've added the correct information to wpa_supplicant.conf, but whenever I try to ping anything, I always get "Network is unreachable".

I have both wlan0 and wlan1, because the Raspberry Pi 3 comes with one, but I still use a WiFi dongle because the built-in RPi 3 one can't do some things.

I'm using BerryBoot.

Anybody able to help?

What is the best soundcard for pure DOS gaming? I have a Sound Blaster Audigy and a CT4810.

How would I go about installing something like it? I'm not that familiar with DOS gaming but interested. I have an old Packard Bell with a Pentium/MMT 133ghz .

All of a sudden backspace to go back doesn't work in chrome, and it's telling me to use Alt + left.

How do I make backspace work again, and wtf is this retarded shit?

>>56066996
id assume within your network manager, if it isnt starting, it is going to tell you why. I dont use arm, but it should be in /var/log/*program*, or do it manually and check stdout

>>56066997
anything that is soundblaster and general midi compatible should do fine
bonus points for getting an adlib compatible card

>Pentium/MMT 133ghz
lel

>>56066705
Sure, just jam it in there.

>>56067079
lel too much psych shit from school. Mixed MMT and MMX up. Otherwise, something wrong with that processor?

>>56067079
oh, by soundblaster compatible, i mean soundblaster 16/pro, not newer ones (i'm unsure if current soundblasters are backward compatible)

So... if I decide to buy a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard (no usb dongle shenanigans) how exactly do I access UEFI/BIOS/GRUB2?

>>56067101
na, just saying MMT and 133 gigahertz is funny
a P133 box is fast enough for all but the last 90's games, where it might struggle

>>56067056
Oh, I actually haven't installed a desktop interface yet. The ARM version comes with just the command line, so I don't think I have a network manager.

I'll check /var/log/* and stdout.

Thanks, Anon.

What's a good lightweight GUI text editor, <10mb including dependencies.

leafpad doesn't have enough features for me. i need find (next/previous)

does VP9 support scene cut detection? docs suggests it does, but it's not doing so with ffmpeg (it's using the max GOP size every time)

to get the manual pages(man) just do man, then the name of the program, it will show you all the options that you can do with the program.
so 'man vim' for instance.
You'd have to check what it runs by default, it may be networkmanager, netctl, or something else, youll have to check what you have installed or what arch arm come with by default

>>56067206
oh, this is assuming NetworkManager, which is the name of a specific network management daemon

>>56067212
no, a P133 box is fine, unless you only planned to run late generation DOS games

Alright. Anywhere I could find instructions on how to install such a card like that? I've googled some, but you seem like you know what you're talking about

>>56067212
also, many late 90's/early 00's soundcards were SB16 compatible, the SB16 was practically a standard, pretty much any dos game that supported sounds supported the SB16

>>56067247

>>56067268
how to install a soundcard?
just;
- note down any jumper configurations on the card, such as IRQ
- ensure it doesn't use the same IRQ as another card
- plug it in
- find and install the DOS driver for the card
- may need to add a line or two to config.sys, to load the driver at startup

unless you have a specific need otherwise, i'd recommend using FreeDOS instead of MS-DOS

>>56062812
You could try underclocking it with SetCPU. Or just set the screen brightness to 0% and yell voice commands at it all day.

alternatively: suggestions for image mounting software that downloads normally instead of in this stupid "download a thing that starts a different download" way

>>56071504
>>56071545

use virtual clonedrive instead, since it isn't LITERALLY MALWARE

i have 2x4gb of i think ddr2 ram currently installed
i also have this one random 4gb stick of idk what. will it benefit me to put that in my pc?

I had been listening to music on my mp3 player with MP3 at 320 kbps because the player doesn't have the space for my massive FLAC collection. Can I use OGG instead? Would encoding OGG at 320 kbps or maybe even 256 kbps be significantly better than MP3?

Is it worth getting a Z170 motherboard with a USB Type-C port?

Will it be used for anything useful in the next 5 or so years or should I go for a cheaper H170 motherboard? I probably won't be overclocking anything anyways other than RAM (2133 -> 2400).

>>56071699
Do you frequently use programs which are bottlenecked by your RAM?

>>56071781
dont think so. but it cant hurt to put it in right? or can it, thats what im asking.

>>56071780
I like mine but don't have any 3.1 devices and probably won't get any for years. I just went z170 for my 6600k that I'll eventually overclock in a few years to get a few more years out of it

Restart your computer then install these two updates:

microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=47351

then

microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53332

If you can't get them to install, then run "net stop wuauserv" without quotes from an administrative command line then try again. If you're still having problems run this

The odd duck will mess up your dual channel. That will cost you performance, but not *nearly* as much as running out of memory and having to go to the swapfile does.

from what i know the actual GPU is the same, its just different cooling/materials that they use

Is a ping of 32ms shitty?
Along with 66Mbps/4Mbps
Coming from an old USB 2.0 Wifi type N

>>56067640
Probably better cooling and slightly higher clocks on the AIB (3rd party card).
I don't know though, on my Fury which has 3 fans it's hitting 75C playing doom, yet I can barely feel the fans blowing any air. Sad!

I'm not expert on computers/internet but I do like working on both back end and front end web development as a hobby atm.

I have this old core 2 duo thinkcentre with 4gigs memory and 1 terabyte of HDD. I installed Centos 7 first then I found out Centos Web Panel do not work on that version so I formatted and installed Centos 6.8 and the latest CWP yesterday. Now I have some problems with the firewall blocking incoming connections to port 80 and problems with phpmyadmin. there's many older version troubleshooting but many don't work properly for my situation. Now I'm beggining to loose my trust to Centos. Bcs every other version of that OS uses different directories or commands.

I'm not against learning but for the time being all I want is a home server for hobby purposes and I want a server that serve with minimum maintenance/trouble. Should I go for a mac mini and OS X server? or fight my way through linux? Maybe I should go for Windows?

what do you think?

>>56071865
How far away is the server you're pinging? Also, use different servers to account for shit happens

>>56071865
Depends what you're doing on said server. If you were playing a game for instance 32ms ping would be 2 frames of lag.

How can i tell if im getting deaf of one ear or one of my earbuds is broken?
I cant seem to fit the other one on the other ear

Why am I hard crashing to automatic computer reboot during any visually heavy game for my 660ti? Is it the current installed driver, the 2GB GRAM or the internal temp/power usage?

I just wanna play DOOM and Evolve, man.

If i don't put them full-in the audio is centered, but if i put them full-in it skews to one side

I HAVE had ringing and randomly hear weird distortion sounds, but on both

>>56071997
like the deeper i put it (on on ear), the less i hear

>>56071730
Most people wouldn't notice much difference between an MP3 at 320 and something higher, especially on the type of portable headphones you're probably carrying around. If your player happens to support OGG you might as well start adding your new shit that way, but I wouldn't worry too much.

>>56072011
Cut back on listening to loud music and see an ear doctor. It's pretty hard to diagnose yourself effectively. The tinnitus can mean something or it can not.

Every day it feels like there's a new reason to uninstall Windows 10, but right now I just want to clear this fucking error up first. Shit just started happening this evening once W10 tried updating. Any advice?

what websites are out there were you only see people with high intellect are allowed to post not because some physical wall but because low iq lose interest invisible attention span makes them walk through like a filter
I know is shadertoy.com
post your own known

>>56071730
depends on what you are playing them on honestly

Any decent strides in wireless HDMI yet? I remember being kind of excited for airtame when it was announced but its 3 times as much as they said it would cost and I see that it doesn't work for shit.

I'm just trying to step up my anime watching game

Did Windows 10 remove the option to not automatically update the drivers?

I swear it used to be in Device installation settings. Now all I see is something about downloading apps and icons.

They just pushed a AMD driver the other day that didn't work with my Vive. After an hour of troubleshooting the error code (almost everything online was about USB), I saw that they updated the AMD drivers the other day. Downloaded latest drivers from AMD and it fucking works again.

>>56072073
You can try rolling back to before the update and waiting for it to mature a little.

>>56072157
You can ban drivers by their name (catalyst/nvidia etc) via powershell, just google it.

>>56072157
That option can be found by installing windows 7

How long does it take windows 7 to search for updates? i've reset it like 4 times and it's been hours

>>56072144
Nah. It's kind of a meme technology. Streaming vid over network connections took off too well for anyone to care enough to develop wHDMI

You must have been on a bistro with old kernels. It could write, but not always reliably, since 2.6

>>56060969
i have the exact same problem, but with mine its that everything works properly unless god behold I put youtube into fullscreen. Everything lags and tears the fuck out, its definetily a software problem since that doesnt happen on linux but on windows 10. fuck amd.

>>56062346
common sense 2016 and adblock.

>>56073809
But that first one is so hard to install...

So i have a hyper 212 plus, and a 6600k, the shitty blademaster fan gave out, i'm using 2 1200rpm fans in push/pull for memefactor 9

Should i just buy 1 or 2 decent fans for it or should i get a better cooler, like a d15/s or a le grand macho rt?, I'm not keeping my current case, and will be putting my computer in a case with a 160mm cpu cooler limit, if there are any other coolers i should look into getting recommendations, anything under $100 and the quieter the better
