But I heard that if you the other x16 slot it takes lanes away from the x16 slot the gpu is using
Or am I retarded

I am in a introductory course for computer science and I'm not quite sure on how to proceed. We're supposed to write a algorithm in pseudocode using iteration that multiplies the first 11 integers, 1*2*3*4*5...*10*11 and then write the result as output. How would this pseudocode look like?

How do I install flash on debian?

please give a detailed response I'm retarded

I'm using chromium 64 bit and I'm having YouTube troubles. Some videos will play in HD while most do not, only giving me 360p. I've tried using some extensions like ViewTube, but no luck. Even videos on Twitter immediately give me the "The media could not be played." error.

I got an external HDD case thingy that I'm planning to put my old HDD with windows on it into to transfer some data to my new HDD with windows on it.

Do I need to watch out for anything? Will the windows installation on it cause problems? Can I just plug that fucker in like a regular external drive?

>>56938160
Yeah, you can plug it in just like an external. It also won't boot windows off of it, just like an external.

I had ES file explorer to access a network drive I put in my apartment and it worked.... But ES went to shit. I tried using astro but it won't accept credentials (I don't know what it's asking for in domain/workgroup)

Any suggestions for an android file explorer that can access a network drive?

>>56938025
Read your motherboard's manual. Also keep in mind that x16 has two meanings, one for the physical size and another for speed.

>>56938114
Depends on what kind of rules your course uses for pseudocode. You might have to use a while loop instead of for loop. Also you can replace i++ with i = i + 1 to make it look less advanced

>>56938160
If you're using windows 8 or 10 then fast boot might cause issues, you should consider disabling that before you remove the drive. Other than that it should work fine.

I have an HDD which were previously part of a Windows storage space on my PC, but I have removed it from the storage space. Now I'm trying to format it and assign it a letter but I'm not able to. All options are grayed out when right clicking in disk management, and I've had no luck with diskpart either.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to set up my Raspberry Pi 3 B to use OpenVPN, but somehow I'm to fucking retarded. A few days ago, I changed the password and I can't get it right anymore, so I created a new user where I carefully typed in the password but later on I'm getting told it's incorrect. I want the raspberry to use as a VPN to my home internet so I can access shit when I'm going to China. Should I just reinstall raspbian to set the password anew?
And does somebody have a good guide how to set up OpenVPN? I've seen various guides but most of them were outdated or too complicated because I'm retarded desu

Im in europe , black friday isnt a thing here.

What about christmas? also , is there a way to track items that i want in case they go on sale? i mean besides on amazon , just some sort of webpage with a lot of that info.

>>56938353
Depends. Black friday deals have been getting shittier, but we're close enough it probably wouldn't hurt to wait. But if you see a really good price for something on slickdeals between now and then, or you end up in the same city as a microcenter you might as well jump.

>>56938360
Just use a third party tool like easeUS partition.

What's a good streaming device? We have a fire stick and it freezes or stutters often.

I've been debating back and forth on if I want to get a 1080p 144hz monitor or if I should just pay more for a 1440p 144hz monitor.

Is 1440p worth it? And is a 1070 enough at 1440p to get a high frame rate in most games at high settings?

Thank a for any input anons

>>56938458
Where in Europe? Here in Norway Black Friday was pretty big last year.

>>56938453

>Is 1440p worth it?
Absolutely, I would never go back to 1080p. It's very nice having that extra desk space.

If I use Daz loader v2.0.6 do I need to block any windows updates?

>>56938478

Im in spain , some major retailers like Media Markt and such have started to do it but its not wide spread , not yet i guess.

>>56938458
Don't know about europe. In the US pre-christmas is pretty big and slickdeals/camelcamel are the big sites.

>>56938507
What do you mean by desks pace? Going to a single monitor setup from a dual set up?

>>56938513
You don't need to block updates with official daz, but where the hell are you getting 2.0.6 from?

>>56938536
No, resolution affects how much of a webpage/image/document you are able to see at once, regardless of your actual screen size in inches

>>56938536
This >>56938562
Pic related is a 1080p image in a 1440p resolution. That's how much more you'll be able to view on your monitor.

>>56938543
Nvm, I forgot you could get 2.2.2 of MDL it's been a while so I just googled for Daz loader and found 2.0.6 on mega.

>>56938587
>>56938562
Thanks anons that helps.

If I go 1440p is a 1070 enough or should I got with a few 1080?

>>56938613
Never google daz. That's just asking for a world of hurt.

>>56938632
Yeah. I remembered after the fact that doing that was dodgy, cheers.

>>56938628
Should be fine, depends how high frame rate you want. Go research some benchmarks.

>>56938628
1070 is a good fit for that resolution.

>>56938477
I had the same problem as you. I ended up just splurging on a 1440p 144hz monitor (asus pg279q, which has everything you could possibly need) and I didn't regret it once. It's very worth it. The refresh rate is a must at this point and the extra screen space is great, games look fantastic.

I would just suggest you not get one that's bigger than 27'' if you have a normal desktop setup. Mine already feels gigantic, any bigger and it'd be annoying I think.

Can't say how the 1070 does though, sorry. The 1080 handles 1440p at 144fps pretty well on lots of games. Sometimes games are just poorly optimized though.

>>56938628
Depends on what you want and how much income you have. 1080 would allow you to keep that 144fps without having to crank settings down too much but 1070 is good too.

I need to build a backbone/UTM for my home network. I have about 330Mbps download/30Mbps upload traffic with my ISP. Will either of these be able to handle itself as a UTM? My Pentium N3700 board can't even break 100Mbps either way as a UTM, so I had to take it out of service.
http://pcpartpicker.com/list/2nNfd6
or this
http://pcpartpicker.com/list/RWKyWX
Also, the 10GbE is for internal networks brigde only and will not be filtered by the UTM.

>>56938690
Personally I have a 27" and sometime I wish I'd gone bigger. It really only felt huge at first, now everything else just seems really small. I think the high refresh rate is really only worth it if you lean really heavily on fps games, but it does look nice.

>>56938460
>Just use a third party tool like easeUS partition.
Thanks, so do I need top irate it since the trial version can't do anything?

>>56938667
>>56938660
>>56938690

Thanks anons.

The only games I want max frames at are multi player like rocket league, counter strike and games like insurgency, etc. Single player games 60 is fine.

So I think a 1070 would work for my needs

>>56938785
That's just the way they pitch it. I've been using EPM for years and never needed the paid version for anything.

New chrome user here, giving it a try, but I need two extensions if any one has good ones share please.

1 for taking notes or making a list of some items I need to search later on the week, no day or hour specific, just want to have the items in a list.

And the other to save files in a specific folder.

I use listit for the first one and save file to for the the second one on firefox, but can't seem to find some that would do the same for chrome.

Follow-up question, I did just that and it works fine, except for one thing. I'm on windows 7 by the way, both HDDs.

I have some data I need left in the old HDDs documents folder (the one in the user directory). When I try to open that however, a popup comes up telling me that I need permission for that, but the little popup lets me adjust it right then and there.
However when I do that it just loads forever. It lets me back out of that just fine, but it never seems to finish loading whatever it's doing.

No idea about anything graphics related, my gf asked for my help with buying a new laptop. Question as follows:

If Civ VI has a minimum requirement of AMD 5570 or NVIDIA 450, would a brand new Dell Inspiron i5 7200U + Intel HD graphics 620 be able to run it? Or do I really need to get something with NVIDIA?

Recomended specs are AMD 7970+ or NVIDIA 770+...

Can I use 50 ohm headphones with my motherboards integrated sound card? I tested them in store with my phone and they sounded tinny but I think mobos can deliver slightly more.

>>56939109
What resolution is the screen?

>>56939151
>Can I use 50 ohm headphones with my motherboards integrated sound card?
Yes, but you need a DAC or some sort of audio device to get the most benefit out of it. Most onboard sound chips are barely adequate for regular 3.5mm headphone jacks.

>>56939109
It definitely won't max it out, but I would expect it to be playable at low settings.

I am looking for a cheap skylake motherboard and I am currently looking at ASUS H110M-K

ASUS promises PCIe 3.0 and overclocking on this board, but the internet says that H110 chipset cannot do either.

Is ASUS lying?

>>56939356
No on the PCIe stuff, the PCIe 3.0 lanes they're referring to come directly from the CPU itself, NOT the chipset. The chipset also has dedicated PCIe 2.0 lanes.
No Skylake motherboard has been able to overclock non-K CPUs since this year, so you might be looking at outdated marketing material.

how to delete ALL of my google account data/sync etc, but still keep the email address? (like restart it)

>>56939393
speaking of overclocking, can you overclock K CPU on non-Z170 chipset?

>>56939443
On certain motherboard, you can only adjust the BCLK. The unlocked core multiplier is exclusive to the Z chipsets.
I don't think any of the AM4 boards will have that restriction.

Just found an ebay listing for an X121E for only 15 euro. Seller has 26 positive ratings, but only put up a stock photo and the spec sheet, nothing else. It's probably a scam, right?

I received my Neewer NM-700 and a Behringer UM-2 in the mail today and I don't know why it's giving me so many issues.

For some reason, I can't use this as the microphone on TeamSpeak. Every time I select it (Line [2- USB AUDIO CODEC]) and attempt to test it and fix the settings, TS either crashes or gives me an Error. I attempted using the old Behringer drivers instead, but keep receiving an installation error. I can get around it sort of by starting tests with my headset selected, switching to my mic, figuring out where the levels need to be, and switching back to my headset to make changes, but even that's has issues and occasionally crashes my headset drivers. Does anybody have ANY idea what to do?

>>56939406
OK, I have no idea how to find out what's available in slovenia. For what you're trying to do though, I wouldn't expect it to cost more than 700-800 euro, if your country doesn't price gouge. You would want something with an SSD, an i5 or i7 6xxxU cpu, and ideally IPS screen. Asus and dell are good, acer is ok, low end HPs sometimes have flimsy cases, and lenovo likes to include malware but the hardware is good if you don't care.

>>56939690
contact your school about their edu emails should be simple enough. My college granted me an .edu email for free upon enrolling, so they've either made one for you, or you simply need to ask.

>>56939723

>>56939651
Doesn't really work that way. Models vary internationally, as do the deals for them, and the sites that make reccomendations. I can throw out a few models with decent specs, but I can't say anything about their reliability or reviews.

This has been asked time and time again but pity me for I'm a lowly C#/Java developer.

But a friend and I want to foray into smartphone apps. I know to submit apps and what not I need to buy a developer license.

But what do I need to get started? What are most apps programmed in or rather, what's the best most efficient app to program in? Apps are the bane of my existence but what methods of non intrusive apps are there to make small profits? Do I use the Android SDK for everything? Mainly though I'm hoping to receive answers that the language choice is up to me or I'm at least hoping it's Java or C++. Something I have experience with.

Swap our every instance of Android and replace with with Apple so I can guide my friend in the right direction as well.

If they have been used for a long time, chances are that the cables have been bent. Bending damages the internal connections. I've experienced it firsthandedly with my favorite pair of headphones. After years of continued use, the jack's internal connections broke.
Don't do my same mistake anon, check these cables.

(Also, they may fry is used improperly. Be sure to double-check.)

>>56939948
Nigga, if you pull and bend metal wires too much, they snap. Didn't you learn this is chemistry?

Also, oxidation can still happen inside the insulating layer.

>>56940046
You're not understanding that those cables are directly connected to the prongs that go inside of the wall and make direct contact with the contacts inside of whatever they power. Wires can't fry. They can corrode and stop transmitting power I guess. Bending power wires really doesn't do anything. Power still get's transmitted.

It's not pointless to test them because the connections do have a very slim chance to get loose or be faulty all together but this is standard high assurance QC.

What's the deal with "better quality" power supplies, that provide the same amount of power.

I don't mean garbage like rocketfish that straight up lies to you, but different corsair series for example. Is it a meme, or will it effect performance?

>>56940713
You are talking about a piece that literally will give ENERGY to your whole system... you better not screw this shit up

>>56940713
A quality power supply can potentially affect the longevity of your components, and your electric bill. Ith has nothing to do with increasing actual performance.

But yea, I'm confused as to why they are so much more cheaper than the internal when its usually the other way around (more portable)

What is the better function declaration?

is_substring(big_string, searched_substring)

or

is_substring(searched_substring, big_string) ?

>>56941281
On the assumption that substring is usually short and big_string is big, I'd go with is_substring(searched_substring, big_string) because seeing that in your code tells you instantly what the substring and big_string are, while the other one results in the big_string pushing the substring out of the screen forcing you to scroll to the right to see the substring.

>>56941338
I was thinking the same. Just the way you read the function out loud.

How do I disable Windows Defender in win10?

I've tried googling it, but the solutions I get don't work.
Apparently I don't have gpedit.msc on my computer, and when I tried disabling it through Services the options were all greyed out.

Google "Shut Up Windows 10."

I have a Toshiba Tecra R940 with 8gb ram 700 something GB hard drive till i threw an SSD in it. For some reason I get like 2 hours of battery. New installs, I've tried everything. I was gonna get a new laptop, but something comparable to this would be expensive and not worth it. Is it normal to only get a few hours battery? How do I fix this?

I want to load some xml files using Ajax and seems like I need a server for that. Which OS do you recommend for it? Should I really do it or is there some easier way?

Is $130 for a latitude E4310 a good price? Trying to buy a used laptop off friends and got offered this. I have a powerhouse desktop, I got an elitebook 8440p off craigslist in maybe 2013 for $200 but it shit the bed and just need something for basic on-the-go use.
Also might as well ask while I'm here... whats the cheapest laptop with an actual GPU (or what can I expect to pay for one?), even a lowend one? I use Touchdesigner for work and won't launch unless it detects an actual GPU, I have my desktop for actual 3d work but want to be able to use TD on the go to just work on my python and scripting (which is annoying it requires a GPU even if you have no intention of doing any actual graphical/3d work with it).

I'm in florida, about to be killed by the hurricane, so I have to evacuate. I am taking my hard drives with me, but how do I safely transport them?

I haven't updated winows 7 since 2013 and bc of this I can't add my bluetooth device (get error 80040154)

With that said I'm in the process of dual-booting to Linux for the first time in order to add my dongle.

Is this stupid? Will it work?

>>56941135
Nigga, that's NOT a WD Black drive. That's a WD Passport drive that's Black. It's a 2.5" mobile drive, probably a WD Blue that's proprietary to the Passport series (take it apart and there is no SATA interface at all, just a proprietary USB controller built into the drive's PCB. It's not very fast (unless you consider ~100MB/s peak read to be fast) compared to the actual WD Black (which is ~190MB/s peak).

I've got a gaming PC too which I want to add more storage options.

I've got a 500GB SSD for installs and a 2TB HDD for media (movies, TV, music, porn, etc).

I'm thinking about getting a 128GB M.2 drive for my OS, basic programs (browser, Steam, Winamp, etc) and my Adobe shit, reserving the entirety of the SATA SSD for games.

I also want to greatly expand my media storage. I basically want enough storage capacity that I don't have to worry about it and even 2TB just isn't enough. I've thought about a dedicated NAS but it seems superfluous since the only streaming I do is straight to my TV and my case has plenty of drive cages (which can be upgraded to hot swaps). But I don't know how I should configure it. RAID? UnRAID? JBOD? Just plug a bunch of drives in and have drives from C: to K:?

Getting a black screen after installing either of the newer driver offerings on AMD site, could this possibly be caused by the fact that I am still using the older "Catalyst" interface for my settings and haven't installed their "AMD Settings" app? (Think the AMD Settings app is a huge step back and refuse to use it.) My gut tells me probably not since the AMD Settings is in itself presented as an optional component, but not sure what else it could be.

What's it mean when my PC wakes up like this??? I've replaced the GPU with a new one on a fresh Windows 7 install a while ago, and the last time I had something similar happen was when the CPU got schlonged.

>>56942503
Ok, then keep adding 4tb drives. Or buy blurays. Whatever floats your boat.

My phone wants to update on newer version of android (marshmallow 6.0.1 ) , however, it requires 1gb of device storage for even starting to update. I've create some space, i transfered some of the apps on SD card and shit, but i want to know when this new update is instaled, will i lose this 1 GB of memory, or is it just like an instal.exe, and one when its instaled its deleted and i have my 1gb of memory back (ok, maybe not whole 1GB cause of the updates, but like 90% od those 1gb) ??????????????

I made a recording that involves 3 different audio tracks, as in, if I export to Audacity, the audio tracks show up separately. They are supposed to be isolated from eachother, but I forgot to check which track is in which channel, and now I have game audio coming into my mic channel and an extra audio channel.

Is it possible to use the audio track with game audio only and use it to get rid of the game audio in the other tracks that I don't want the game audio sound in?

I have two ram sticks, one is 1333mhz and the other is 1600Mhz, if I dual channel both will be using 1333mhz.

Kinda stupid question, hope someone could share some light

>>56942886
You might notice a difference, and moreso when using an amp with portable devices. But if your mobo has pretty good audio and no interference you may be underwhelmed by a dac. On the other hand I have no idea how far off your monitor is from true colors. If you don't need to do photo editing, you might even find you prefer some oversaturated presets to a more accurate tuning.

>>56942987
And you've decided to spend your last few minutes with us? How touching!

From last thread:
Anyone know whats wrong here? Dropped my phone like 3 weeks ago and broke the screen. It wouldnt light up, but i could still unlock it and open apps. Got a micro usb to hdmi cable to cast the screen to my monitor, only to find out i cant use the touch screen anymore for some reason. Got the big adapter in the pic so i can cast the screen and plug my mouse in, and nothing happens. If i plug it into my new phone (same model as broken one) it works perfectly. I can see my screen, unlock it, use my mouse, etc. Why wont it work with my broken one? The buttons light up when i plug the adapter in, so phone is connecting to it. I think i can use my mouse as well, but im not 100% sure as i cant see anything

Not really. Disassembly is missing the structure, naming, comments, documentation and the background knowledge that went into writing the original code.

>>56943849
I don't think 4chan has any control over the captchas themselves. It just requests a captcha from the API and google controls everything from there.

>>56943591
>Would it be fine to have a browser solely for using google products and social media, and another for everything else

Ideally you would want different IP address, next would be different PC, then there is Linux VM inside windows, then there is clearing your history between every session.

I only use 1 browser so I don't know why you are considering using two.

>>56943929
Nope. Only works in the other direction

It's a Galaxy S5? I think most of your gallery and stuff would be saved to the SD card, and your contacts might be backed up online automatically, I know mine were.

Anyway does it work when you plug it into your computer with USB? Let you browse files and stuff? You might be able to back up your contacts with some app over USB or with the ADB console or something.

She's on a laptop and just has Intel (R) HD Graphics 4000 as her only item under Display Adapters. Win 7 64. Using TeamViewer I tried auto-updating and manually updating the driver (which is out of date by about 4 years) and it would never take hold, always giving some form of error. If I uninstall that driver so I can forcibly install a newer one, is her laptop going to stop displaying anything on the monitor?

I’m torn between getting a 4 bay external enclosure + raspi which is $150 + $35 or building a nas which would run around $230. All of this is not including drives.

I want to be able to run 24/7 irc and rtorrent and able to run openvpn whenever I connect to internet outside of the house to tunnel through my connection. I want to also host my plex media directory on this device. Hosting the plex server on the device is only a plus seeing as I am totally alright with using my desktop as the hosting server and just using the device as storage for the directory. I will be the only one accessing this device and it is not meant to serve anyone but me so usb 2.0 will not bottleneck me.

Because Windows search is ass and the new start menu is ass. Get Classic Shell same as you would in Windows 8. It's far better. Hierarchical program list. Search that works right and doesn't take so long to produce results. Jump lists. Fly-out control panel items list. Direct power/sleep button.

Are there any risks in using the pixel clock patcher to increase the pixel clock limit for a DVI single link cable?

I want to add subtitles to my .mp4 movie so I can actually play it on my Xbox 360.

Wat do?

I already extracted the .srt from the original .mkv file.

Currently using Linux.

Biggest bottleneck of the pi is network speed which will be considerably lower than USB 2.0

>>56946009

Don't be a FUCKING FAGGOT and get the ODROID-C2.

How do you get Cortana to speak to you without using a mic or activating the 'Hey Cortana' thing?

I want to just type in a question then have her respond to me with her voice. All the tutorials want her to talk to you through a mic that's attached.

Alright /g/ help. My Surface Pro 3 decided to update and somehow failed halfway, giving me this screen. I tried everything to fix it, including creating a bootable USB, changing where the device boots from (USB>SSD instead of SSD Only), and even disabling secure boot. Pressing volume down + power button does nothing and pressing the Windows Key does nothing. The USB was in Fat32 format so what did I do wrong? Pressing F8 and F9 makes me screen flicker black for about a second and that's it. Am I fucked?

Anybody?

I don't want to have to waste a disk, or write too much to one of my RWs.

Hey friends.

I've just started a programming course on university and i'm supposed to do a CGI script. But I can't open my CGI scripts in my browser.

Anyone know why?

This is the message i get

"couldn't create child process: 720002: mos-me.cgi"

a quick search online says it has something to do with

>#!/usr/bin/env python

which is written in the top of the code, unfortunately my teacher have for no reason not told me wtf this is just that I am supposed to write it like that when i start coding.

>>56946453
No, seriously.

My distro can't into Wine, either.

>>56946535
actually it might have nothign to do with #!/usr/bin/env python

since I can open just text based .py scripts in the browser but not .cgi, using the same "#!/usr/bin/env python"

>>56946502
I like it. But I'm thinking more of something I can print out. Like a picture of Gaben but be hardware/microsoft related because I basically work with Windows 7 all day. Bill Gates?

>>56946607
A windows 10 logo. Then your customers will see it and possibly pay you more to help them upgrade. Add Cortana to the side of it.

>>56937972
What is the least ambiguous format for a date?

I've been going with the ISO 8601 standard, which uses four digits for the year: 2016-10-05

>>56946634
That just sounds gay. I mean we already get people that want us to upgrade their computers for them. We charge $80 and I instantly get $40 of it.

I have a sketchy deep cycle lead acid battery from a UPS (actually 2 12 volt, 8Ah seriesed together), but it's almost completely discharged. Can I charge it just by hooking up virtually any 24v (or 12v if I separate them) to the terminals, or is it more complicated than that?

There any free open source applications to manage amazon cloud drive? All I can find are monthly fee services.

>>56946649
You could have the month as abbreviation. So for example 2015-DEC-26. It ensures that even americans will understand which unit is which. Only problem is that it doesnt sort that well by it's own, you'll have to develop a specific method to sort them.

Or just use a locale-spefic format.

CORTANA CONFIRMED BOTNET

>>56946649
Well don't stop now

>>56946696
Decent chance its just dead
You can charge it with 12.9 and up, higher voltages will charge faster
You want to stop charging before the battery reads 14 volts

What windows ide will let me pass arguments to main, like gcc does.
Example:
>gcc program.c boob

PC wont boot, beeps 5 times, pauses, repeats.
Googled the problem, possibly motherboard shorting, or CMO battery is fucked
>try booting outside of case, make sure all cables are in properly
Nothing
>Replace CMO battery
Nothing

But.
If i wait a few hours, it just works fine again, until the next time i leave it off for a while then try to start it back up.
What gives?

Anyone know the best headset for vidya? Too lazy to look around.

Where to learn 8086 DOS assembly?

>>56947106
What's most important to you? Low price, quality audio, good mic, port, construction?

>>56947247
I would say the actual audio quality and construction would be the most important. But I would like an ok mic too.
Port type really wouldn't matter right?

And I wouldn't be afraid to shell $100 or so as long as the sound quality is good and it's comfortable to wear.

From my limited understanding it seems better to buy a dedicated pair of headphones and attach a separate mic than buy a dedicated "gaming" headset. Or is that just a meme.

My idiot friend used my USB drive containing some school assignments as a Linux install disk, overwriting everything.

Is there any way to recover overwritten files? Probably not. But I can ask.

>>56947406
Overwritten will be impossible
It is possible but unlikely that some files could have not been overwritten and are recoverable with photorec/testdisk

>>56947433
I'm 99% sure they were overwritten. It was a 500mb image written over a few megs of image files.

Guess it's a lost cause. The fucker hasn't even apologized for doing it yet. But that's not a /g/ story now is it

>>56947354
Most "gaming" headsets are garbage with a pretty design, if you look hard enough some are nice. The best pair I've found for cheap would be the Gamecon 780. Plastic headband is the first thing to break, but it's comfy and GODLY microphone for the price, bass is flat af tho. $50

If I put a Raspberry Pi compute module into one of my DDR2 SO-DIMM slots, what would happen?

Where can i get compressed air that's actual fucking air?
I don't want to accidentally inhale butane
