I've got a whole THREE stupid questions
- I'm a windows ten fag who just installed Iridium. All of my extensions and everything work fine, but I use Google Docs and such for work, and noticed I can't "sign in to chrome", but I can sign into any google service just fine on the individual pages. Anyone know what's going on?
- Another Iridium issue, videos never play anywhere in my browser. Youtube, facebook, twitter, xvideos, nothing works. I tried reinstalling Java and even adobe flash player but nothing works.
- Iridium is also recording my history in incognito tabs, and it doesn't go away when I clear history. All my porn still shows up when I'm typing shit into the search bar. wtf is going on?

I'm practising JS using an AJAX website where one of the pages has a slideshow. Right now I run the init function each time this page is visited, but this results in duplicate eventListeners. So, I have a function that unbinds the events before binding them once again.

Is this retarded? I feel like running functions based on individual elements is bad practice.

slideshow: {
init: function() {
App.slideshow.off();
App.slideshow.container.classList.add('slideshow');
App.slideshow.currentImage.classList.add('active');
App.slideshow.on();
},

on: function(){
App.el.win.addEventListener('keydown', App.slideshow.keys);
App.el.win.addEventListener('mousemove', App.slideshow.mouse);
App.slideshow.container.addEventListener('click', App.slideshow.click);
},

off: function() {
App.el.win.removeEventListener('keydown');
App.el.win.removeEventListener('mousemove');
App.slideshow.container.removeEventListener('click');

Sup /sqt/ my old laptop is dying and I'm thinking of buying this PC:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0155KMZYI/
and adding a 750ti and a Qcore processor to it.
I'm running on a budget of $500 and the PC + the GPU and Monitor I'm thinking of getting are already taking $400 of that budget.
So to put it it simply, what is a good quad core processor I can get for ~100 bucks?

I've also literally never built a PC before, let alone upgrade one.
How hard is building a PC?
and more importantly, Will the PC I'm thinking of building, likely be able to play M&B:Bannerlord at a good framerate when it comes out?

Clunky, but if you don't care about reusability then it's probably fine. When I did a lot of jQuery we did similar junk. Could also probably set a flag when you bind events for the first time.

This probably sounds pathetic

Does having a high watt psu affect how much power comes out the plug? Reason I'm asking is because I've got an RM850 which i used with SLI, a bunch of drives and OC everything. But now half of that is gone, nothing is OC'd, 1 GPU, 1 SSD + HDD left. I just feel that running them with such a high wattage PSU is just overkill
>>
>>56083785
It should only pull as much power as your components need. Your PSU efficiency also plays a role
>>
>>56083709
Build your own, its cheaper.

I5-6400 and a H110 or B150 motherboard and a $40 case and a EVGA 500B shouldnt be more than $400.

Its easy.

>>56083771
Well, I'd rather learn properly, and as far as I know reusability is key. My rationale was that if I run the function when the container element isn't in the DOM it will throw an error, and the event listeners will be useless. What's a smarter alternative?
>>
>>56083935
Are you adding the container element via JS or is it in the markup? If the latter, use something like

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
//do stuff
});

For some reason, when I import a track Adobe Premiere will take the original audio and double it, making it sounds super shitty and I have to delete the extra track every fucking time I move it into the sequence. The second audio track is not apparent in the actual recording, because I would be able to hear it. How do I stop this shit
>>
>>56084006
It's in the markup, and I'm already running JS after the DOM is loaded. The sequence is kind of like this:

>1. be in homepage, body class "home"
>2. click ajax link that empties body and inserts contents of "project page"
>3. body class is now "project"
>3a. if body class is "project" run Slideshow
>3b. Slideshow caches newly added DOM elements from "project page"
>3c. Slideshow adds event listeners that control elements from "project page" and creates a slideshow

The part I'm unsure about is 3a. I don't know how smart it is to be really specific about what to run and when. I've tried finding tutorials on managing code and multiple features across pages but haven't found anything relevant.
>>
Where can I go to download college textbooks?
>>
>>56084350
So generally when you're adding content via ajax or some other async method you can just do things in the callback function. In jQuery it would look something like

$.get(url, function(stuffToAddToPage) {
// add stuff to page > run Slideshow > add events
});


Is that not an option here?
>>
>>56084210
I was asking for stuff like on that picture. I found something called ambilight but its 60 dollars.
>>
>>56084569
Yeah, that's how i'm doing it. The ajax callback runs a single init function that includes:

>3a. if body class is "project" run Slideshow

But i feel like i'm not really getting the modular code pattern.

init: function() {
App.homeInit();
App.singleInit();
//other stuff
},

homeInit: function(){
if( App.el.body.hasClass('home') ) {
App.grid.init();
}
},

singleInit: function(){
if( App.el.body.hasClass('project') ) {
App.slideshow.init();
}
}
>>
>>56083282
install gentoo
>>
>>56084741
When are you adding the home and project classes? If it's in the ajax callback, where you're also running the init functions, you shouldn't have to double check. Can just assume they'll be there.

I'm imagining

function callbackFn() {
// add content to page
// call init functions, no need to check if App.el.body.hasClass('home/project') -- can assume content has already been added since these are synchronous
}
>>
Anyone use the vimperator addon for firefox and 4chanX?

When I'm on the catalog page and use the shift f hint shortcut to open something in a new tab it hides the selected link, but only when 4chanX is on.

I've looked through all the options on 4chanX but nothing I've found stops it from hiding.

Anyone else had this problem and managed to find a solution?
>>
>>56084848
Makes sense. I'm adding the classes when when clicking on the ajax links that have a data-class.

>>56084967
Gotcha. I'd definitely defer all slideshow related logic until after the ajax call returns, then you can just do everything synchronously in order.

Wouldn't that attempt to run the slideshow functions (cache, event listeners) regardless of DOM content?

Nope, you should be fine there.

Yours will likely look a bit different, but as long as the only async thing you do is the ajax call, the rest will run in order.

Did nVidia physically damage my components? Or is it a salvageable software incompatibility that I can probably fix?

I tried installing an nVidia legacy driver to improve PhysX performance in Borderlands 2 on my GTX 1070. Doing so caused crashes while playing Overwatch, giving me errors like 'IRQL_NOT_EQUAL_TO' or something like that as well as some PCI instruction missing. Uninstalled the driver and then got more crashes. Uninstalled ALL nvidia drivers/software and got even more crashes like 'BAD_MEMORY_POOL'. Wiped my SSD and reinstalled a fresh Windows 8, but it would get to 100% and crash, telling me I had a BAD_MEMORY_POOL. Tried reinstalling, and on the 5th attempt it miraculously worked.

Now I'm trying to upgrade back to Windows 10 but I'm still crashing right before the installation finishes giving me bad memory pool errors or PCI instructions missing. I removed the GPU, reset the cmos battery, and tried swapping around the RAM to different slots and trying them individually. Ran memtest86 which gave me a bunch of errors, but I'll have to run the test with the individual sticks for a few nights. On my Motherboard I'm getting a code 51 in the LED display, which according to the manual means it's a memory startup issue.

Specs:
6700K i7 @ 4.0 GHz
Gigabyte GA-Z1709X-UD5 TH motherboard
GeForce GTX 1070 EVGA SC (Removed for now, using the i7 integrated graphics)
32 GB RAM (Corsair Vengeance, 2 sticks of 16 GB each)
Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB SSD
EVGA Supernova 850w G2

Computer is about a month old. Didn't experience any instability before installing that stupid legacy driver. I know that there's some kind of RAM and/or PCI-E slot issue going on, but I don't know if that's software-related or something got damaged. I always use an anti-static wrist strap when touching any components, no exceptions, I don't have money to throw away over something dumb like being careless. My previous PC was an i7 920 with a GTX 285 that lasted me 7 years and still works.

You can clone your existing system as is, but any programs you would want to move to the HDD would have to be reinstalled.

Your function is expecting a char to be returned, but base is being initialized as an array of chars. Does that code even compile? I think you'd want something like this:
char *level(int w) {
char *base = malloc(sizeof(char) * (w + 2));
//...
return base;
}

int main() {
char *levels = level(5);
//...
free(levels);
return 0;

Yeah. It'll go out of scope unless you dynamically allocate it. In C arrays are basically pointers. In the above example, you could do either base[1], or *(base + 1) to access the second element

This isn't really a /g/ question but it involves a tech-related job so I hope putting it here is okay...

I recently got my first job (firmware engineering). After receiving the formal offer letter, I accepted and they asked me to send them a formal acceptance letter (which I did already). Is there anything else I should do to prepare? I'm thinking in the realm of paperwork and shit like that, or things I need to do before showing up. The job starts in a week. This is my first real job (I previously only worked as a TA and since the university had all my info on record there wasn't anything beyond a 5 minute test from the professor to see if I still remembered what I learned in the class) so I really have no idea what to do before starting a new job.

>I don't care about your degree, though.
Sweet. Honestly, I don't expect people to care about if a degree is compsci or SE (heck, most I've seen ask for either a degree or 5 years experience), so I guess it's just "choose the best one for me".

I don't have a reputation, projects or a portfolio yet (still last year of highschool) but I'll look for some open-source stuff to work on once I learn a bit more.

-------

>> CS
>Depending on the institution, this might actually mean "degree in Java".
UNSW has a ""super flexible degree"" for CS where you choose a shitton of electives from pic related. Also, C instead of Java (with C++ as an available elective. I'm interested in software jobs in animation, where C++ is the most sought after, with Python then Java next, so it benefits me)

>SE
Their course is basically more about "doing it the best way", more about implementing the solution economically/time effectively/etc.
>>
>>56088328
I'd give the SE degree a serious look, then.

If you can pick languages, go with C & C++, then Java if you have time and care about it.

When you put the two on your resume, C is a very different language than C++, so don't say "C/C++" - I throw those away.

Seriously make the time to build _something_, even if its just a graphing calculator (bonus points for 3D graphing, even more points for source code).

I don't care about grades given for coursework or multiple choice tests.

Lastly, if you decide you want to pursue graduate work: Have a goddamn copy of your dissertation/thesis at the interview. If you want to be hired on academic merit, have something of merit to show.
>>
Can you mix DDR3 and DDR4 ram?
>>
>>56088411
>If you can pick languages, go with C & C++
Luckily, C is UNSW's language of choice, and C++ is an available elective. I've heard they are best to learn "with a mentor", so university should be the best place to learn them.

>When you put the two on your resume, C is a very different language than C++, so don't say "C/C++" - I throw those away.
And so you should: I don't even know either and I already understand that they are no longer closely related.
>mfw after a year I finally realise why there is C, C++ but no C+

>Seriously make the time to build _something_, even if its just a graphing calculator (bonus points for 3D graphing, even more points for source code).
Will do.
Out of curiosity, would a whole bunch of small programs (such as the rolls in /g/ daily programming thread) be of any real value to my resume?

>I don't care about grades given for coursework or multiple choice tests.
Which sucks for me as I have no experience (apart from very basic programs in VB for school assignments), but I have outstanding academic reports. But it makes sense. Good on paper =/= good at work.

>Lastly, if you decide you want to pursue graduate work: Have a goddamn copy of your dissertation/thesis at the interview.
I probably wouldn't have thought of that; thanks.

Probably the only way the university would detect your pirated windows is if it was so infected with malware that your system has gone literal botnet and is actively sending out malicious network traffic. And even then they still wouldn't care about the pirated part. If you want to minimize the risk of having an infected installation I would suggest using a verified ISO and the official Daz loader.
>>
>>56089497
You can use an i3 and 4gb pretty effectively for the light stuff like that, but you've got more wiggle room with i5/6gb, so if it's not a lot more you might as well. SSD probably has more impact on you overall experience, and 1080p translates into a lot more real estate for documents/browsing so I would definitely go for that. IPS screens are nice but not strictly essential

soon-to-be computer science undergrad here.
I admittedly don't frequent this board but thought maybe you guys could offer some input.

So I have a relatively minor degree of familiarity with the CS field (a HS course doing mostly Codecademy & similar entry-level programming sites), finding everything piss easy so far, but I still can't help but wonder if I'm actually cut out for this.

Can anyone here with CS experience redpill me on what's expected, particularly whether or not someone at my level can hope to keep up, or does it cater towards those who already have a good basis of prior knowledge?

I'm totally willing to put in the time, but I've heard it's rough regardless.

If you find Codeacademy easy then you'll be fine. Spend your uni years improving your social skills. Employers need someone who can work with others without dropping their spaghetti all over the floor. If you can just get a job offer you will start learning everything you need crazy fast, so don't worry *too* much and you will learn a lot on the job.

In summary, get a job offer by having a side project to show off and bring friendly and confident in the interview; you can learn the rest on the job.

/g/ Please help me, my father gave me a playlist of songs that are all M4p and for some reason they wont play on my PC or his Music player, only on his apple notepad.

So I googled about converting them (through another program) to MP3 but it turns out I have to download itunes and make a playlist for that, so I can burn them again (convert them)

Now when I try to add them to the fucking itunes it says adding then nothing is there...
why is Itunes so confusing and shit...if anyone knows please help me, have some tits.

Honestly unless you have several hard drives, multi gpus, and a hot overclocked processor processor you really don't that many fans.

In my rig I have a single rear exhaust fan an i5, gtx 980 and two hard drives and it never gets hot. Even long gaming sessions manage to only reach mid to low 70s.

If you want just get another intake fan and mount it where it won't be obstructed

>scared of cleaning dust
get some compressed air ($4.30 at family dollar) and just give any heatsinks/fans/whatever a few blasts.
As long as the dust isn't like asbestos or something and you don't touch the actual components there won't be any problems.

In terms of the impact it might not do too much but it won't be bad for the computer.

Practical/performance reasons %100. I will use it for work and don't care at all about rice.
They can look like dumpsters.
>>
>>56093225
If you are on a low budget just keep the two fans you have and get another fan to cool your hard drives/ssd since they do get hot.

If you have more money then you can spend just get some noctua fans
>>
>>56093262
Which fan is the one for the drives though?
Is that the one on the 'rear' or the one on the 'bottom' though.
I understand that the SSD will be on top on the 3'5 ones on the bottom.
>>
>>56092499
It's a setting called "FN Lock"

This is the one time you might actually need the bloatware that came with your machine. I have a toshiba and that's how I changed mine.

it'll be called "HP super duper settings" or something and there. Or look in the BIOS for settings.

Also people with one, some reviews about it?

so,

1 second = 1000ms
movies are 24fps
to not drop skip on a standard 60hz monitor you need to render each frame in less than 41.6ms or less, because 41*24=1000ms

what if i have a higher refresh rate monitor? is the leeway for the render time higher? 120hz for example doesn't that mean each frame can take up to 82ms to render and not appear choppy?

Your PSU is bigger than it needs to be. You'll be fine with a 520W or 550W.
People practically give those fuckers away on Ebay. You can save a good money most likely.
DO NOT BUY CORSAIR "CX" PSUs. They are complete shit and will burn down your house. This is well known.

I'm not as familiar with Intel CPUs but I know for sure that shitty G3258 won't cut it. You're gonna bottleneck the shit out of your R9 390.

I recommend just getting a old FX 6300 and OC'ing the shit out of it. Don't worry OC doesn't break your computer in most cases if you do it right. It's a good CPU for the money with a lot of OC potential.

>>56094425
This guy is right though. A computer is something you want to invest in.
You are literally at the cusp of new technology. New budget AMD cards have made competitive gains on NVIDIA.
Furthermore ZEN is right around the corner, half a year away.

>>56094447

Rice is a meme, the important part is to leave it until you're absolutely sure it's dried.

USB 2 limits your power output to 0.5 amps, USB 3 is 0.9. Phones often charge up to 2.4, or even higher if they support quick charge. You can check the output on your charger to see how high it goes. Using high quality and/or short USB cables has an impact too because there's less power wasted by the resistance of the cable.

Make sure MTP is on and usb debugging is off. It could be in charging mode instead of data mode. And try another cable. The cheap devices are just flaky sometimes but you could do a network share instead of usb.
