One of the two reviews there say it's blurry. And it's not even memecurved OLED.

Today I noticed that there's a LICENSE file in the bin folder of a piece of software my company develops. It contains GNU General Public License text and it most likely comes from some linked 3rd party library.

Is it even legal? The software in question is a closed source product and is certainly not free. Wikipedia says this about GNU GPL "derivative work can only be distributed under the same license terms". Does it mean only modified versions of GNU GPL licensed libs have to carry the same license or software that links them too?

Windows 7 really isn't worth the time. Just checking for updates, not even downloading or installing, takes longer than installing, configuring, and updating Ubuntu. If you need Windows for games, they'll run much better on Windows 10.

Audio question:
Setup: Passive speakers + speaker amplifier for desktop + DAC/headphone amp combo.

If I want to use the speakers with the speaker amp and the DAC from the headphone amp and obviously the headphones with the headphone/dac amp do I need a dac/headphone amp with pre-out or not?
This is really confusing me.

I bought headphone amp from schiit, magni 2u for use with hd600. I use my laptop audio out as my audio source
Now there is static/buzzing, I thought this could be shit dac in my laptop but if I put my hand on the amp while listening to music the buzzing sound subsides.
Why does this happen and will buying external dac fix it? (I dont mind buying it but I also dont want just to throw money away)

Update from yesterday.

I've finally managed to get the basket, almost working. I can send the ID of the item into the array and display it. How do I display the rest?

>addtoCart

if (empty($_SESSION['Cart'])) {
    $_SESSION['Cart'] = array();
}

array_push($_SESSION['Cart'], $_GET['Id'])

?>

>Display basket

<?php

var_dump($_SESSION['Cart']);

$whereIn = implode(',', $_SESSION['Cart']);

$totalItems = count($_SESSION['Cart']);

echo 'You have : ';
echo $totalItems;
echo ' product(s) in your basket.';

foreach ($_SESSION['Cart'] as &$value) {
    echo "<p>Item ID: $value";
}

?>

>>57558329
>How do I display the rest?
What rest? Please give some more context

>>57558416
Oh sorry.

So the database table I'm trying to use is called 'differentItem' and contains an ID, Description, Brand and Price rows. Each of them filled with data. I can get the ID of one item to be displayed in the array, but I can't get any of the other rows to be displayed.

>>57558479
Use PHP's mysqli functions to query the database and print the results

Is a factory still a factory if there's only one class it can create?? Pls respond

>>57558553
oh wait, I solved the issue. Well, sort of. I know why I'm only getting ID at least.

<form action='addtoCart.php?Id=$Id&Description=$Description&Brand=$Brand&Price=$Price'>
<button type='submit' value='$Description' name='Description' class='btn btn-primary'>
Add to basket</button>
<form>

So in this form, but button value and name was originally ID. I changed it to description and now it's showing Description. Any way you can add multiple values/names to a button? I was using hidden input types with the values/names, but I figured that was totally working. D'oh.

Is there an app or something that notifies me when a persons instagram is not private anymore so I can sneaky follow this bitch that wont accept my fake instagram follow and fap to her pictures? T-thanks.

I'm heading to university in Sept 2017 for an engineering degree but only have AS Maths and would like to be prepared ahead of time for it.
The obvious thing would be to study the A-Level text books but the things have WAY too much fluff, ~1/3 of the books is 9th grade stuff.

Any one recommend other books/textbooks to prepare me for college calculus and linear algebra?

Web development general just ignored me.

Am I suppose to be using a virtual machine for every project?
I currently have virtual box.

>>57558596
>Any way you can add multiple values/names to a button?
I don't thnk there is a determined way. I mean you could put a JSON kind of object in there, or a comma separated list and parse it later on

like

value="1,2,3"

and then use

explode()

sounds like terrible design in my opinion, you should probably store an array in the user's session maybe

>sounds like terrible design in my opinion, you should probably store an array in the user's session maybe
See, that's what I've been trying to do. I'm honest to God terrible at PHP and just need to learn it for a bit for a project coming up.

The way I'm thinking about it was like this.

To add the item details to a $SESSION array. I was going to use the button to send the variables to a .php file where I'd them to the SESSION array. So that'd be this.

if (empty($_SESSION['Cart'])) {
$_SESSION['Cart'] = array('Id' => $Id, 'Description' => $Description);
}

array_push($_SESSION['Cart'], $_GET['Description'])

And I was sending information to the .php file with this.

<form action='addtoCart.php?Id=$Id&Description=$Description&Brand=$Brand&Price=$Price'>
<button type='submit' value='$Description' name='Description' class='btn btn-primary'>
Add to basket</button>                    <form>

 $_SESSION['Id'] = $rows['Id'];
$_SESSION['Description'] = $rows['Description'];
$_SESSION['Price'] = $rows['Price'];
$_SESSION['Brand'] = $rows['Brand'];
$_SESSION['ImagePath'] = $rows['ImagePath'];

Am I doing something obvious or am I just being a shitter?

When debugging a session, always use:

<pre><?php var_dump($_SESSION)?></pre>

at the top of the page to see what it contains.

Also, make sure the following function gets called before the first access to $_SESSION:

session_start();

>>57559025
>

<pre><?php var_dump($_SESSION)?></pre>

Never considered putting that on every page to debug. Thanks senpai.

>>57558852
That can work but I'd do it a bit differently

- Create a file functions.php or similar, where you put that code which gets data from the database and gives you the item information. Also other code that is called often will be stored here
In pseudocode:

function getItemFromDatabase(id){
// mysqli connect and query
// put resulting data in an array
return $itemJSON;
}

- User SESSION has an array "itemsInBasket" that stores those IDs, and just IDs

$_SESSION["itemsInBasket"] = [39, 40, 41]

- On every page you only use those IDs along with that function to grab the additional data
That way, in case your database gets updates (changed price, changed item name) your data is always up to date

require_once "functions.php"
foreach($item in $_SESSION["itemsInBasket"]{
print_r(getItemFromDatabase($item))
}

>>57559026
If you connect to network though someones hacked wifi they technically become your internet service provider (isp), so no its not possible because networks dont simply exist, they are owned and operated by somebody.
You could theoretically become a tier 1 network provider yourself. I guess thats the only way without relying on isp

I'm getting paranoid.

I had PSU (I forgot the brand, seventeam I think) on my PC that every now and then would start buzzing, and it always go 'bzzzz' when playing games or doing some other stuff.

Yesterday i got a new PSU (a corsair hx750i), installed it, checked everything. Noiseless.

But then, I decided to check closely, and I could hear a little buzz. Since today I got my GPU back, I played some games, and when I removed my headphone, I could hear the buzz. It was not as loud as the other PSU I had before. But still 'bzzzzz'.

It it normal for PSUs to do some bzzz? Or should I replace that one, since it's new.
What if the replacement also buzz?

I'm using the following batch/command

@ECHO OFF

FOR %%f IN (*.flac) DO (
echo Converting: %%f
ffmpeg -i "%%f" -ab 320k -map_metadata 0 "%%~nf.opus"
)

echo Finished

PAUSE

Trouble is it isn't retaining all the metadata if I use opus.

If I convert to mp3 it will retain album art, opus does not.

Anyone have any experience here? Is it just an incompatibility with the filetypes and I'm fucked? Hoping someone else has been here before.

Traffic between the server and other stuff on the same LAN at home literally cannot be counted. If it's talking to anything outside, that will be counted.

>>57563585
Because it's just local files. Like it's my data that I'm uploading and I'm downloading. So I didn't know if the moving of the data on my network actually counted like traditional uploading/downloading.

i'll give you the insanely quick idiot-style EECS rundown

think of binary as a charge on a wire, on or off, true or false. you can easily implement logical operations like AND and OR in terms of simple electrical circuits that take 2 wires as input and 1 wire as output. these are called logical gates

32 wires can represent a 32-bit number. you can easily implement simple arithmetic operations like PLUS in terms of logical gates involving those 32 wires, e.g. "if the ones place in both numbers is TRUE, then carry the 1 into the twos place." this is called an arithmetic unit

you can capture the state of the charge on 32 wires using an electrical component called a register. this lets you have temporary value storage for things like variables in programs

the design of all modern computers is what's called a Von Neumann Machine. it works like this. on every "cycle," there is a value trapped in a register that represents the instruction to be executed. this instruction is logically "parsed" by logic gates, which determine how to interpret the instruction (e.g. first wire "true" = "it is an arithmetic instruction," second wire "true" = "it is an ADD instruction").

depending on the interpretation, the instruction is sent to e.g. the arithmetic UNIT in order to execute whatever arithmetic the instruction represents. at the conclusion of the "cycle," the instruction register is fed with the next instruction in the program. this is what "machine code" is, and is very close to what "assembly language" is.

nobody wants to write shit in machine code, so we write programs called compilers that take other languages and translate them into machine codes.

What should I study that will still have job openings in 3 years? I keep hearing over and over again that, CS, commerce, and STEM are all memes.

>>57566225
to be clear what i meant by "idiot style" is that i greatly rushed and simplified everything. what i just summarized is a good chunk of an EECS course. you're not supposed to understand all that without taking a course or at least reading a book or something. my summary is only intended to give you a sketch to follow

STEM isn't a meme, it's just ridiculously competitive and oversaturated outside of the M part. If you want job security then become a doctor, you might need machine assistance but you will literally never, ever be out of work unless you're an idiot and manage to get your license revoked.

CS is quickly becoming a meme but as long as you're good and actually like what you do you'll be alright. Be warned, though, we're due for a major crash in a few years, 10 at most, where pretty much all languages and software will become too complicated and outdated to keep around and we'll have to start from scratch, what this means is you'll always have to continue to learn new shit and after a point most of your older knowledge will be useless.

"STEM" is a meme because the fields that make up "STEM" are not similar. it is hard to get a job as a biologist or chemist. it is not very hard to get a job as a computer scientist or electrical engineer. this shit changes over time with funding and how crowded the field is.

right now CS is hot as fuck and not the slightest bit a meme. you can get a job in CS. no one call tell you if that will be true in 3 years because the economy is entering a period of tremendous uncertainty. personally i think it will be true for the foreseeable so long as you actually learn computer SCIENCE (Hal Abelson is a meme) and not "app programming" or w/e the fuck

What's the best way for me to go about learning C++. that allows me to work through it or gives me a recommended program to put code into practice? I started reading programming and principles and it haas examples but I have no clue how actually do them or what program I can do to with.

download qt
find newboston and voidrealms on youtube (just to name a few)
take notes of that you learn, for example:
// this is how you comment

/*
many
lines comment
*/
etc

watching tutorials is good, but you also need practice
find a program you want to do, and work on it
maybe a small program for a family member, or a game, etc
look up info (in qt with f1) or cplusplus.com or youtube it, or google it, etc

that's how i'm learning anyway

planning to rma my graphics card soon

how do i get my video output from my motherboard / integrated graphics now? is it a bios setting that i have to change?

i'm running a i5 3570k processor along with a b75 asus mobo with 8gb ram

i presume i'll be getting the integrated graphics from the processor after removing the graphics card, is it possible to run overwatch on that as well?

How to add metadata to .png files?

All I need is to add a custom string to the file outside of filename, for tagging. But it seems that .png and .gif can't do that. Do I need external software? Which software will work?

Are there any programs like MSI Afterburner for linux?
Programs to manage GPU frequency, or change powersaving stuff in the CPU

I build a new PC with windows 10 for gaming, and anything I try to play crashes, and I'm having a hard time finding out why

I feel like I'm missing something obvious. Specs are in pic

I don't know if this fits the thread, but I didn't know where to post. This is my first year in college, studying C, never programmed before (a little bit in high school, but I don't think that counts), and I'm doing okay so far, passed my exam and all of my lab exercise. I'm up to date with all of my school work, but I wanna learn something on the side. Should I read some literature on programming, or just try to build some simple programs so I can get the hang of it?

>>57568429
It's really up to you, but I feel that practice will get you more because (assuming you're in that major) the courses should cover the theory stuff well enough, but getting dirty with the system will give you things the courses will not. Make sure to supplement WRITING code with READING others' code. A big part of programming is communicating ideas, so understanding what is readable by others and what is confusing is helpful.

That said, you probably want to work with what interests you because you'll get better practice and fell less stressed if it's fun.

>>57568418
what kind of crash?

>>57568478
Program has stopped working kind of crash

I don't know if there's kept any logs detailing why

>>57568418
check your temps, are you sure you're not overheating under load? do some cpu/gpu stresstests.

is all the hardware seated properly?

does it only happen in graphic intense games or in simple games that rely more on the cpu as well?

have you overclocked anything?

is your psu powerful enough to handle your system under full load?

i don't know if this still works on 10, but i'd use DDU to uninstall the display driver in safe mode, then install the latest nvidia driver. if it still crashes, use an older driver and work your way down until the crashes stop.

what do the error messages say when the crashes occur? check the windows event viewer if you can

do the games crash at startup or while ingame?

if all fails, install windows 8.1 and see if the crashes still occur. if they do, some of your hardware might be broken ootb and you'll have to rma it. hardware either fails in the first weeks, or in a few years, rarely in between.

>>57567761
probably firefox, a fork of it, or midori.

>>57566915
use the clover app or dashchan
also get firefox with ublock on mobile.

>>57566808
run mbam just to be safe. it could be a windows thing as well.

>>57568468
Thanks for the answer, Right now, I wanted to check out video game development, but I don't know if I'm up to snuff to play around with engines and stuff like that.

I need a AM3/AM3+ Socket CPU Heatsink/Fan that's low/mid profile size.

To give you a general idea, I cannot fit a Hyper 212 Evo in my tiny case by almost an inch

Any suggestions?

>>57568541
Thanks lad, I'll get to work

>Do I need external software?
External to what? Obviously you need a client that understands PNG unless you write on yourself.

>Which software will work?
Maybe ImageMagick has this?

If you right-click this and try to save it, does the filename in the save box change from the filename in the URL for you guys too? Also, comfy pic.

I guess I should specify that you should open the image in a new tab, and then right-click the picture and Save As.

So i want to "access/get sent" some images to a phone each day.

Yeah I just tried it in Chromium and it doesn't change the name there. In Firefox with uBlock Origin, uMatrix, NoScript (for ABE/XSS protection), Self-Destructing Cookies, Private Tab, and HTTPS Everywhere it does. No idea what would cause it.

Dear /sqt/.

Everytime I try to transfer files from one of PCs at my work, running Xubuntu, by pendrive, I keep getting corrupted data, when I try to open them on another PC, running Windows.

I tried two different pendrives so far and different USB ports - I copy files, then unmount the pendrive, but result is always the same.

How can I solve this problem?

I bought their ZM-Z1 case, it comes with 1 rear & 1 front 120mm fans and that's it. There is no top emplacement, and even if there is holes in the front for another 120mm fan they don't give the screws. Anyone know where i cand some ?

What?

>>57568929
Reboot Linux, then use a program like rsync (which verifies it copied correctly using checksums) and then run sync before you umount.

Feel like that should catch just any potential issues on the copying side.

It should show columns of data. Instead it shows those... things.

Thinking of buying a switch to attach to my router and buying a couple of used NAS enclosures. Is this a viable option or will there not be enough bandwidth? If I stick to enclosures with 2x Ethernet ports and buy a switch with enough ports. Would this basically be a pleb-tier SAN?

Im not very experienced with linux myself, you mean I should open terminal at flashdrive location and then type something like "F:// rsync"?

Anyone has any experience installing Windows 7 on the new skylake chipset ? I can't add the usb 3.0 drivers it's killing me

I remember some website which had download links for is images of most windows versions, so you can download them conveniently. Anyone knows which website that is? Microsoft doesn't even offer a download for vista anymore, and I need it.

Im looking for a basic Linux distro, which comes with a wide varity of hardware drivers, but no preinstalled DE applications, like image viewer, player etc. It can boot into CLI for all I care. And preferably uses APT for package management. Does such a thing exist?

>>57569086
>>57569086
No. Linux only has one regular filesystem tree, it doesn't break them up into namespaces by drive letter like windows does. But judging by what you're asking I think the terminal option isn't going to work.

You might want to verify that the USB key is formatted fat32 or NTFS.

>>57569159
I know Debian asks you which DE you want during installation, I think you could just not select any of them?

>>57557667
/v/? the same retards that run around 'pcmasterrace' and at the same time have no clue about actual tech? i wouldn't trust them

>>57569172
yeah, but i just want the desktop, not all the useless applications with it. and debian install complete DEs. maybe it's time to build my own

>>57569195
just use arch already, fuck. apt isn't even that good.

What happens when I don't specify a user in ssh. Like when i just type

 ssh domain 

What user am I using then?

>>57569232
So you'd rather "build your own" and you assume this will have fewer bugs?

>>57569269
Unless you specified elsewhere (config files, -l flag, etc) the one you are logged in as. So if you are killgore, it would be the same as doing killgore@domain

>>57569285
>killgore@domain
But what if there is no user named killgore on the system I am logging in to?

>>57569300
Then it will ask for a password, but no password will be accepted. This is the same as if you typed the username manually but it was not there.

>>57569319
Ah ok, I see. Thanks!

I'm using Iridium 54.0.0, and would like to remove one of the extensions that come with it. (The CryptoToken component)
I cannot do it via the usual of going into Appdata/Local/Iridium/User Data/Default/Extensions or what-was-it, since there is no folder with the add-on ID.

If all else fails - is there a solid Chromium-based alternative?

>>57569719
You're question is a bit ambiguous, because a lot of sites aren't one server with one connection.

But assuming you're talking about the connection the file is going over, if it's not https (that is http over TLS) then generally no.

K.A Stroud, Engineering Mathematics. Any edition should be fine. PDFs available online. This seems to be the meme engineering maths book for a lot of UK unis. The progression in it is good as well, you can skip anything you already know.

On linux, when using dpms screen blanking, the screen wont un-blank by mouse or keypress anymore.
I can kick the screen back on by switching vt (alt+ctrl+f1-6)
