Muh laptop will not go to sleep when running Windows 10.
It's fine with GNU/Linux. Powercfg -requests gives me nothing.

which windows should i install, 8.1 or 7? I understand that windows 7 is for the most part better however it is much older than 8.1. Would it not be better to go with a newer version? Also should i pirate it or not.

does anyone know anything about the acer xf240h ?
it's the same price as a benQ xl2411z in europe, cheaper in the US, and it has freesync.
it's so cheap I'm afraid the colours will be complete shit, but I can't find any reviews online

>>56288758
age is not an issue as long as it still gets security updates.

get 10 if you dont care about MS / NSA spying on you.
get 7 if you care about it and you can remove those spyware updates.

stay away from 8/8.1 there's zero reasons to get it.

also pirate of course.

Why isn't there a tablet with an LED display?

>>56288822
got a few good ratings by newegg buyers

only review i could find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drc4IZEfR8E

i'd probably get the benq one if it has actual reviews by hardware sites over the acer.

>>56288860
I don't speak what seems to be polish so this review won't help me much, they didn't even write anything on screen I can google translate

I'm not in a hurry, I was just thinking of buying a 144hz 24" so I looked around and found this acer, which seemed interesting.
I'll just wait for review to pop up

I bought a Bose Quietcomfort 35 headset and I cannot get it paired through bluetooth to my laptop.
Well linking to it works, but I can't get my laptop to recognize it as a headphone.

I tried to:
>removed all the bluetooth software and reinstalled the latest drivers
>installed the latest firmware on the headphones and tried to link it throught the USB directly into a USB port (didn't work)

I spent hourrs browsing on the internet but I an't find a solution for it, it links perfectly to my Android tablet.

If I check out in the device manager the headphones aren't connected throught the bluetooth tab, but under the remaining tab as a generic device. Windows simply asks me to install the correct driver because it won't recognise it.

Running Windows 7 on a ASUS P2520LA. The bluetooth dongle seems to be embedded on the wifi of the laptop, Realtek 8821AE

What's a good vpn?
Belgium has stupid retention laws, maffiaa is hunting down on torrent sites. Users next? Bloody google analytics,...,...

Trust.zone looks nice? Will it work on a asudwrt router?

>>56288957

>>56288957
routers dont matter, it's a software you install on your PC that encrypts your traffic and sends it thru a server.

>>56288957
why would you want a VPN in belgium for torrenting? there just block torrent sites with DNS bans and that's it. Just google for a proxy or use the website's ip to connect to it directly and you're set
They don't monitor anything, there are zero risks with torrenting.

>>56289122
>doesn't mean it can't happen
I have retard friends who download anything and everything, and their families who do the same.
I've never found anyone in Belgium, be it a friend or even someone posting something on the internet, that got anything serious for torrenting, ie something more than an american corp sending you an email with no legal value whatsoever.

Torrenting in belgium doesn't require a VPN, the country is too small for anyone to give a shit

>>56289217
still doesnt mean it cant happen unless you can actually show me your copyright infringement laws and prove it's impossible to get a letter or be charged.

and i'm not saying he needs one, but he asked and got an answer.

>>56289273
well if the ISP got an email from a copyright holder, at most they'd forward it to the user.
You need a court decision for anything else to happen, and there's never been one in belgian history concerning this. The BAF (belgian anti-piracy federation) has been trying to do it for years, never once did it happen.
It's exactly the same as streaming movies, it may be illegal but nothing will ever happen.

On Windows 10 my laptop crashes everytime I use the webcam

>>56288998
Yeah, but i use my router as a openvpn client/server. Works great with dd-wrt. Now on asuswrt whitch is a bit more polished and slimmed down.

As an openvpn client it would route all my lan clients trough the vpn. IF the vpn provider uses standard ipenvpn tactics. I read somewhere thats not the case with some

>>56289102
Well, just seems like the pressure is up.. i only download media, ebooks... All my software is ligit. But indeed Belgium is a small country, but I Rather want to be safe than sorry. I don't like it that someone with a court order can use my web history to imply god knows what. Maybe a silly thought in 2016.

Even if torrenters aren't caught today, it is still illegal. Who knows when the lawmakers are up to date in 10 years you'll get fined for that movie you are downloading right now.

Hey, I'm on vacation in Germany and I live in a dorm with protected wifi for its dwellers. For a week it keep disconnecting which is annoying af. There are about 4 routers in the building and it seems that only this one my phone is connecting with is fucked up coz when it connects to another network (router, coz there is one network) works perfectly. I've installed numerous apps but the don't allow me to change router, wifi analyser shows that all of routers are in range of my phone. Fuck, is there a possibility to change the router? Image from analyser shows everything. I want to connect with e4:8d....

So I have a vm running linux, I have it run firefox and use a few extensions that make it automate visiting a few pages, mainly for browser games for collecting daily bonuses, points etc. I use iMacros to do these tasks and my weekly browsing schedule to make it run at a certain time everyday.

Problem is that it seems to slow down to a crawl after a while and just takes forever to run through the tasks. Does anyone have a better solution? I just need it to be able to refresh a page, click a bunch of things once everyday, I have very little programming experience but wouldn't might reading up writing scripts if resources are provided and stuff.

I currently have 8gb (2*4) of ddr3 ram in my computer which are about 3 years old. I bought a 16gb (2*8) kit because i had some money to spend.

My question is, is it possible to use 20gb of ram with two 8gb and one 4gb or would that somehow slow the ram performance?

Airdump is reading −70 dBm.
Which I guess isn't a lot.
If its MAC filtering then MAC change should solve it no?
Though I doubt someone that uses the name of the SSID as the password knows about the MAC filtering.
>masks
Depends, try years and people names/nick names.
Also password lists are geared towards english speaking people.
Unless it is a common word, it will rarely crack it.

I don't know much when it comes to PSU and I'm in this situation, I want to add a graphics card to my pc and it requires a 6 pin connector, looking on amazon I found pic related but I dont know if I have to use two molex to power a 6 pin of if it's intended to make a daisy chain out of adaptors

>>56291081
if you are going to use 2 gpu's or so just buy a PSU that has two 6 pin power cables

any PSU over 700 watts should have 2 of them at least

what brand PSU do you use now?

>>56291081
If it was a "daisy chain" as you said, one of the molex connectors would have a female connector, both of those are male connectors.

>>56291141
It's a respectable-no-brand 620W psu unfortunatley it has only 3 molex and 3 sata plus the canonical mobo connectors

the gpu is a 120W gtx 960

looking on google I see how 6pin delivers 70 watt while a single molex 40, two of them could cover the power needed but they bring less amperes, while there are sata to 6 pin wich doesn't have this problem

Yes, I know what the error means. But if I can't access the control panel from my internal display, then how do set up optimus? I seriously doubt it will just work without any configuration..

And importantly, is there a way to do it using only HTML, and JS?

>>56292012
why not? the 1080 gets very high fps in all modern games at 1440p, so even with a 4460 it should be a stable 60+ fps

Should be fine for anyone who can actually use his brain and tweak a bit, if you go full retard and max absolutely retarded settings then no.

I just got a Macbook Pro, completely new to it. Can I really not save an image from Safari in a specific album in Photos? It either gives me the option to save it in a much larger folder like documents, applications, etc. or to add it to Photos. That means I have to go to Photos and add it to the specific album myself. There's got to be a workaround, right?

The same thing goes for My Photo Stream. If I've transferred pictures from my iPhone to the Mac through Photo Stream, do I have to move the Photo Stream pictures to another album to save them? Because if I delete them from my phone then I lose them on the Mac (which I don't want).

6-pin is essentially just 2 12V's and 2 grounds to keep the amperage in those lines at a reasonable level, molex (1 12V and 2 grounds and a 5v) times two could in theory be combined to form a 6-pin, but and this is quite big: your psu may not be expecting that much draw from those molex lines, could just poop out and trip over-current protections, or just can't deliver that much power through those lines especially if the other lines are taxed. Just get a PSU that has the connections you need, less hassle and less risk of you burning your house down or damaging your other components

hi

anyone up for some tech support? hehe just kidding, kind of..

recently ive been having an issue, i ve always keep my pc on all the time, is an entry level server, so i dont worry, lately, i find my monitors shut down( like its supposed to) but them i try to wake them up but the display wont return(the display is the only thing that sleeps, disks and everything are always on), even after a hard reset, the display wont come, not even the bios display

what i did has disconnect my gpu, disconnected the pc, and restarted with my integrated graphics, everyhing works fine.

then i reconnected my gpu, and it works again, that for like 2 days, until the whole situation repeats itself

what do you thing? is my gpu dying? is my PCI socket damaged?

what i am doing now, is retrying the card in another pci slot in the same pc, if this happens again, then ill know my slots are fine

should i oven my gpu then? hahah

context

gpu is cheap $100 gt740, so i would not be surprised if it is dying

also, each time this happens, the gpu losses the display settings, and i have to reconfigure, could this point out to a bad gpu?

what do you thing?

How does a SOCKS5 proxy actually work ?
Is all browser traffic, when using the proxy, actually going through the proxy server like webserver -> proxy -> client or just stuff like DNS lookups ?

I want to use my VPS to get around my ISP's mediocre routing internationally when browsing the internet. So since I have great connectivity to my VPS I figured I'd do something about that.

But is it enough to use a SOCKS5 proxy for just my browser through an SSH tunnel for this, or do I need to set up a VPN ?

It's kinda like a Firefox fork.
Probably because it is a Firefox fork.
It comes with its own version of Classic Theme Restorer that has a few more options than the normal one.
Its update system is annoying.

I'm using Ubuntu and I have got a fuck ton of stuff saved so I got an I/O error flash up saying no space left on device when downloading something. Obviously I then stopped the torrent and removed what was downloaded so far, and deleted about 10gb of other stuff I no longer need, but the error just keeps flashing over and over again, referencing the thing I was torrenting and saying no space left on device. Is something really messed up here or is it just the error message repeating itself and there's some way to force it to stop?

Well fuck just as I finished typing this it stopped. Would still like to know if this should worry me though as it flashed for several minutes after I'd made room deleting stuff.

Is there any Linux distro has that Broadcom wireless drivers out of the box?
Fedora does, but Gitlab doesn't support Fedora.

I tried Red Hat and CentOS and neither worked.

What is the most lightweight browser there is? I mainyl want to use it to watch streams or whenever I need to open some link while I am playing games and stuff because I have a limited amount of ram.

>>56294260
Have you tried openSUSE ?

>Gitlab doesn't support Fedora
If it supports Red Hat, it supports Fedora. Fedora is RPM-based as well, so you just grab the .rpm package and install it.

>>56294244
Might just be the filesystem not reporting correctly to the torrent client.
It is very common to write data to memory and then syncing it to disk. Then the sync operation would lag behind if the disk gets full.
Deleting stuff would just allow for continuation of writing, but the disk could still be filled with reserved data.
Or it could be your torrent client that bitched over nothing.

Why did my syntax highlighting stop working all of a sudden?
even tried

So, I slapped an SSD into my laptop and for some reason, the time it takes to wake from hibernation is longer than the time it takes to start from a cold boot or wake from sleep. Is there a reason for that?
Everything else is nice and snappy (as it should be on an SSD), but just when it's waking from hibernation, it takes forever.

>>56294477
then just don't hibernate it, turn hibernation off and just turn the whole system off instead

>>56294477
Because hibernate stores the entire memory file to disk, and to wake up it has to read it all, whereas cold boot just needs to load required system files.

>>56294482
Everything is fine. Just change that first line to

#!/bin/bash

, restart vim, and all will be ok. This is because in some archaic versions of sh there was no $(), just backticks.

That's what I've been doing, but it's been a habit that I've done on and off since my XP days.

Hibernation should obviously take longer to load then a cold boot, if you don't understand why then you don't understand how hibernation works.

You are storing your ram on your disk then shutting off power to the system. The objective of hibernation is you can save energy while not losing work in progress.

When you come out of hibernation you have to transfer stored memory off the disk back to ram this includes all your running programs and everything running in the background

So the answer is yes it should take this long.

If you want to quickly return to your desktop then just use Sleep.. since that's what sleep is designed to do.

i know it's supposed to take a while, i was just concerned since it was taking more than 3x as long as it takes to do a cold boot.
Also it takes much less time on my desktop that has only 8gb of ram and a shitty sandisk ssd.

Did I do good, /g/? CPU performs about as well as a desktop 4690k and the GPU performs around a GTX 750ti.

For $500 I really can't complain. A 6700hq + 970m laptop is the only real logical step up but that's $1200 brand new.

>>56295139
That's what you think. But no matter how well you compare them, mobile GPUs will NEVER perform anything like desktop ones. They are MUCH lower power.

>>56295170
I lied anyway, performs a bit better than a 960m. The important thing is it hits 60 frames max setting 1080p in all the games I plan on using it for. I'm comparing by real world benchmarks and it holds its own pretty well.

>>56295170
>>56295139
not bad, but I honestly would recommend buying w series thinkpads or dell precisions if you are in need of discrete gpu on a laptop

i recently sold my gaming laptop and bought two thinkpads (t430) because the components were the same minus the dedicated gpu

the reason i would recommend business laptops over what you just got is because if something goes wrong it is much more diifficult to fix yourself as (to my knowledge) taking it apart is not done as easily

please don't take that the wrong way though - by no means am i trying to piss on your parade. enjoy your purchase, i loved my gaming laptop while i had it and it was definitely worth the money, but just recognize that when you upgrade in the future any number of years from now you take serviceability into consideration. this is coming from a guy who paid $150 to get his republic of gamers laptop fixed when something went wrong with it. little did i know i could have bought a thinkpad with that money.

Depends. Sometimes you can get unlucky. Also I'd say there's no such thing as "common" sense when talking about computers. You have to know what not to do. In general don't pirate software, use an adblocker, and consider a filtering DNS like norton. Don't download things from shady places and try to virustotal the things you do download. It doesn't hurt to run your user account with limited permissions.

Is there anything to worry about, update-wise, if I'm running a fresh install of Windows 7 and want to get standard updates for it in place? Is there a 'list of acceptable/unacceptable' updates for it? Even something like 'disable windows updates and only download this package of updates' is fine.

Who does /g/ recommend for a 1070?

EVGA, MSI, Asus or Gigabyte?

What is the best Android book reader? I've used Moon and Google.

Windows 10 upgrade ones don't matter anymore because microsoft has pulled the upgrade.

For a clean install you will need 3 updates to get windows update working

Oh, that's a relief to hear.

it's OK but i would NOT skimp on PSU, especially if you plan on keeping it for your next build in 3+ years.

Why are you asking and do you think TDP is power consumption?

kek, sure, go ahead.

>>56296618
what do you mean by "3rd party"? not from MS or hardware manufacturer?

>>56296765
1. google atx standard wiki
2. 2TB drives are almost the same price as 1TB drives
3. hyper 212 is meme at this point
4. no SSD

okay so my laptop's lcd is fucked and doesn't look like I'll be doing the repair until another month or two due to tight on cash

how can I stop the lcd shaking/flickering while I sit out for my repair?

Can FreeNAS do everything that Synology's DiskStation, Netgear's/QNAP's OS can?

I'm having some difficulty finding out about smartphone applications and support. Are there any nifty mobile apps similar to proprietary ones?

fuck off cunt boy if you don't like my hair, you're not me. simple as that.

Find a service manual and replace the panel or whatever yourself if you can find it on Amazon? Let me cum over and do it for you? ;)

You're asking why it says the battery's voltage is half what it should be? Maybe see what OpenHardwareMonitor says? Or boot into the motherboard's own config thing?

Is there a way for me to output audio to 2 sources at the same time but also separate them?

I want to use my headphones for talking to friends while using my speakers to play music. Is it possible through my DAC or do I have to plug one of them into my motherboard and set the default audio to be the speakers?

yes.

buy a whole broken laptop for $20 and salvage parts you retard

>>56298202
undelay the video or delay the audio. check settings.

>>56298208

that's how retarded your question is

>>56298180
Found one for $150, but I wouldn't spend anything repairing that *old* 1366 x 768 laptop. You'd be better off spending $200 on any enterprise refurb.

>Is there a way for me to output audio to 2 sources at the same time but also separate them?
Virtual audio cable and your sound device settings.

Is the Samsung 850 Evo a good SSD to get?
I'm kind of new to the whole SSD thing and am not sure on if it's a good buy for $89.

>>56298244
I'm wondering if "muh cores" will be utilized enough such that it makes sense over the i7. Otherwise, the i7 has the advantage of higher clock speed.

>>56298293
damn straight it's a good SSD

>>56298293
yes buy it

>>56298305
yeah keep wondering that while not giving any fucking useful information...

>>56298293
>>56298325
forgot

you will also need a mounting bracket for it if you want to install it in a desktop case

>>56298335
>useful information
specify

>>56298363
most desktop cases included a 2.5" adapter. If not, you could always velcro it somewhere in the case.

>>56298363
Yes, my case came with some of those 2.5" to 3.5" adapters.

Just updated Windows 10 to the Anniversary edition and suddenly RealTemp doesn't want to minimize to tray anymore. Anyone know what to do to fix this? I think I had this problem when I first installed W10 but I can't remember how I fixed it at the time.

>>56298385
didn't realize they include those now, i had to buy one. my case is kind of old and cheap though

>>56298369
how about what the fuck you're going to use it for, you massive tard

>>56298385
>>56298401
The 850 pro does not come with a bracket

On that note, where can i get a trial version of Windows 7?
So I can use Daz Loader.

Or should I just go for Windows 8 or even try to transfer the OS to the SSD?

How do I set different monitor wallpapers independent of each other in Gnome 3.18? Or how can I disable nautilus from handling the desktop background?

>>56298552
Then you don't need anything bigger than a modern i3. Maybe an i5 if you have money to waste.

>>56298552
are the programs CPU intensive?

>>56298547
>trial version
no. you get an untouched ISO, use MS DVD USB tool and then activate with DAZ from MDL.

win8 is cancer

/k/ here,
does anybody here have any experience breaking open passworded files.
I've got some locked rar files that the original guy who uploaded them on the russian internet was selling the key to open it but then abandoned them and can no longer be contacted. The password is known for sure to contain mostly russian characters, the rar version is unknown however. the files contain scans of blueprints for the one of the 1891 infantry rifle variant.

the files were found here as well as previews of whats inside:

Is there a program better than Windows' default software for creating a system image? I want to be able to just backup my programs and settings without it also adding in all my other shit.

Unfamiliar with vehicle audio but bear with me it you will.

I connect my phone via 3.5mm to my car's audio system and at full phone volume I still have to turn the car audio to 60-75% when the radio is "loud" at 15%. Eventually the interface panel gets hotter and there's a whine noise in the audio; this persists so long as the 3.5mm jack is plugged in to the car.
1) is the heat something I should fix?
2) if the heat isn't the problem, what would I need to get rid of the noise? An add-on or a repair?
3) should I get some kind of portable amplifier so I don't have to crank all the audio or is that no big deal?

peerblock is a meme. it's useless if you want to avoid copyright letters.

>>56298842
unless he used some retarded easy shit password it will take your whole life to brute force them.

if he used a shitty password you could run a dictionary/most-used-pws attack, but it will still take a LOOOOONG time.

I disassembled my laptop to change the paste and replace the fan on the heatsink, but now when I try to power it down it does not fully power down. As long as there is power available it will only restart. Also the touchpad doesn't work when the computer is restarted.

Download and upload speeds are super shitty compared to what I should be getting according to advertised speeds, and what I've personally gotten in this area and friends have, pretty shit at networking and I've messed with wifi analyzer to change the channel and that seemed to help a tiny bit.

"wise" in any context is not a valid term on this site.

Fair enough, though I would venture that the -ass part skews the intended meaning somewhat.
