I have a Huawei HG532s modem that distributes wifi across my dorm.

My roomate's a jackass and can't be bothered to respect my usage, torrenting all day everyday, watching movies and downloading games.

How can I limit the wifi output of my modem?

Every few hours I leave my computer on (I'm using Windows 10 64-bit), it begins to fill the physical memory to maximum capacity, and then it usually crashes. I mainly have media or a game playing along with a few Chrome tabs open. Sadly, it's becoming more common of a problem than when I first experienced it. The last stop code I got today was DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

I'm using Sysinternal's Process Explorer to watch the memory fill up, but I can't determine what process is causing the problem. It seems to happen at random, and I don't know the first thing about debugging such a problem. My best assumptions so far are that it could be something with the page file, or my RAM is going bad, but I've done the Windows Memory Diagnostic and it says no errors everytime.

Is there anything I can try, or at least a program that I should be using to diagnose/fix this problem?

I've got a problem that may be easy to solve. I need a Windows program that can:

1) Open a Google search query
2) Grab the first link
3) Take the numbers at the end of the link and open another link

This is to automatically grab CSV files from a discography webserver that doesn't have freeDB support. Example:

The album's title is 'Nostalgia', so I search site:vocadb.net nostalgia. First result is http://vocadb.net/Al/9372. The link I need is http://vocadb.net/Album/DownloadTags/9372

The goal is to do this from directly inside foobar2k with a hotkey. I've got a component that can run external programs, so all I need is a program that can do that.

Hey guys, yesterday my laptop crashed and wouldnt boot into windows afterwards, giving me the error "Unmountable Boot Drive"
I got a bootable usb with windows 10 on it but the setup process freezes on "Setup is starting". The repair computer option also does nothing
I can still boot into my xubuntu partition just fine
So I guess my question is what do I do now? Is there any way I can run chkdsk feom ubuntu or from bios or something?

>>57649531

you can try hiren's boot and run chkdsk from there, but in my experience you're gonna need to slow format your whole drive

How do I find out whether the correct driver is running on debian?
When I freshly installed Debian, only ethernet would work, but wifi didn't.
So I install a non-free Atheros driver and it worked.
I then did an apt upgrade and aptitude did some weird shit on the side when I was installing some other unrelated shit and after a reboot neither ethernet nor wifi worked.
I found out, that:
1. Normal DHCP wasn't working
2. When I assign eth0 an address manually and set a default gateway, the ethernet connection works
3. Looking into the kernel log it tells me that it has some struggle loading the atheros driver. It tries a few times and fails but then it tries again and there is no further line explaining if it worked or not.
How do I now find out where I fucked up and what packages I need to get again? How do I check, whether the atheros driver is running currently?

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as /g/ - Technology, is in fact, /g/ - Anime/Technology, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, /g/- Anime plus Technology. /g/ is not a board about technology unto itself, but rather another board of the anime themed website 4chan. Many /g/ users visit a website about anime every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the board of /g/ which is widely used today is often called "Technology", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically another board about anime, developed for a website about anime.

why

>>57649609
Do you think I could possibly test it by booting a Linux distro from a thumb drive instead? I only ask because trying to set up a fresh Windows partition seems to take forever for me, and I'm trying not to spend my whole day on repairing this if I don't have to.

Also: I don't need an answer if no one has one, but is there any reason why the Windows Memory Diagnostic could be lying to me about my RAM?

I had Office 2010, then installed Visio 2013, which fucked up things, so I completely uninstalled both and then tried to install the latest which is free for students (if where you're studying has the subscription), but I couldn't, lots of errors and every time I fixed one another popped up.

Same shit with SQL Server and Visual Studio. Visual studio still works but SQL Server is fucked now, and I need it to test something with Analysis Services.

Is there any way to completely clean Office/SQL versions from Win7? Is reinstalling the OS the only option?

I'm asking here in case someone had the same problem, I'm sure it's common since MS has godawful compatibility even with their own software versions.
I haven't reinstalled Windows in almost 4 years, and doing it for this stupid reason would be a pain in the ass.
VM's are out of the question for performance reasons.

which is better, torrents or usenet?

A bit more /3/ but also thought /g/ might help.

I'm trying to render shit for my portfolio (nothing amazing, just shit out of college like pic related) and realizing my computer is kinda shit.
It's an AMD A8-5500 APU processor. The whole thing was a pre-made ASUS Desktop PC CM1745 Series.
I upgraded my GPU to an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 a year or so ago.

So, my question is,

How do I see the fingerprint of the host I've connected to through ssh?

More specifically, I'm using ConnectBot, and it remembers the fingerprint and just connects. Now, I'm connecting from another machine, and it asks if the fingerprint is okay. There doesn't seem to be any feature built into ConnectBot to show the fingerprint of the current connection. Is there anything I can type into the terminal to tell me the fingerprint?

Can anyone recommend a good to-do-list app? I tried using todoist but the fact that i have to pay for reminders kinda sucks. Any good alternatives?

I'm on Windows 7, if I click on a gif it opens in Chrome instead of Windows Photo Viewer or whatever that default thing is. If I'm looking at another picture in that and I go to the next one with the arrow button, I can see gifs but not any animation. I assume I can get it to open them in there by doing the change default applications thing in control manager, but any tips for viewing animated ones? Is it easiest to just keep viewing them in chrome instead of installing another program for it? I like being able to use the same program for all my pictures, and that the windows one is really small and fast.

So i just had a particularly nasty and unexpected BSOD ostensibly caused by my wlan card which is made by atheros (athrx.sys caused it) and now i want to try updating the driver so it doesn't happen again, however the manufacturer domain seems to be defunct and this thing here is one of the only sites left offering said drivers;

>.atheros()drivers.com

Should i download and install from there? It looks like some chink made that site, seems a bit sketchy no

>>57651923
No. It takes 16ms to display a frame at 60fps. Your latency to the server is probably at least 30ms.

People wanking over monitor response times are morons. Unless youre a pro competing over lan, it is completely irrelevant, and you have problems if you feel you are among that echelon sitting at home.

What are all the ways you can find someone's real identity through twitter?

>>57651722
get a used Xeon E5 off ebay instead unless all you do is play gaymes
for example:
>E5-1650
>E5-2670 ~ E5-2690
that way you won't even lose cores. only problem is finding inexpensive LGA2011 motherboards.

>using computer
>suddenly the sound glitches out and it becomes unresponsive (could still move mouse but really choppy)
>reboot
>blue dots on the POST screen
>on Linux, X won't even start
>windows reverted back to 640x480 resolution

Is this definitely my graphics card's fault? If it is, how come I can still somewhat use it? Can any other components cause this? Right now on Windows the device manager shows that yellow box with an exclamation mark in the device manager for the graphics card.

I don't mind buying a new card, but it would suck if I bought a new one just to find out it's some other component's fault.

1. Do programs like Redshift and f.lux adjust screen lighting according to sunset and sunrise at current day of year at current latitude or just by dumbing through fixed time frames? Do they have plugins for such accuracy?

2. Is it possible to use one faster drive on 2 slower buses emulating RAID 0? Somehing like a SATA III drive connected to 2 SATA II buses via some kind of converter that makes OS think it is 2 different drives and then set up RAID 0 on them.

Is there an up to date list of Windows updates which I should avoid? There are updates from September and October which I'm going to be installing just in case it fixes an unrelated problem somehow. I doubt it but it's worth trying.

Facing a major problem with my motherboard
I just built a new PC this week with a B150M motherboard, it's been working for the past few days but today the audio decided to bork itself, tried all the audio ports and all I can hear from my headphones is fuzz
Tried WIndows and Linux to see if it's a software issue, the headphones definitely work
Anyone have any idea what could be wrong?
Speccy included

>>57652337
I've been curious about that myself. The impression I've gotten is that it makes regular desktop usage a little strange and that support is hit or miss - if the game even supports the aspect ratio, you may find hud elements still in the corners, now off to the side in your periphery.

What is a good way to recover items wiped from Recycle Bin? Yesterday I got rid of all of my porn, but I also deleted some old essays I don't want to give up.

>>57652046 Sorry for the headache. If you had a bad experimentation with cygwin you can try with mingw :
www.mingw.org
and
curl win32 - Generic from https://curl.haxx.se/download.html
ddl https://bintray.com/artifact/download/vszakats/generic/curl-7.51.0-win32-mingw.7z
*copy&paste the content of the curl folder into mingw to 'install' libcurl.

After you have managed to install mingw, you can create a .bat file near your code.c to compile like this :

c:\mingw\bin\gcc code.c -o gl.exe -lcurl
@pause

dont forget to put libcurl.dll near the .exe after compilation it can be found in the bin folder of curl.

My computer used to run fine but now it runs like absolute ass. My friend's laptop can boot/launch things faster than mine by at least 2x. I'm pretty sure I really need to reinstall windows (8.1) because I consistently get errors and occasional bluescreens, but I'm just too lazy. Also, my computer's about 3 years old so I'm looking to upgrade it as well.

To sum all of that up, I have a few questions:

Easiest way to back up data? I just drag and drop it onto my external hdd. Is there some magical program? I'd assume not but it's good to ask, I suppose.

Is it worth upgrading to Windows 10 if I'm already on 8.1? I like the look of 10 better but am afraid of spying and "muh privacy" and "dat botnet."

What would be the best course of action for upgrading my computer as it currently is?

Current build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tLYqBP

>>57654178
Oh, also, to add onto that, best way to de-dust a computer? Mine's so caked with dust it's insane, which I would assume might be the cause of some of my problems. Can I just sit it on a small foldable table outside and blast it with an air duster, or is there some special way of that so that I won't ruin my computer?

I'd like to think the hard drive here is my weak point, but I've started to feel the limitations of my GPU when I played Dying Light recently as well.

I've contemplating building a new rig and selling this one, but I'm not seeing great CPU/Motherboard deals at the moment. The cpu and motherboard I got for this one was $80's altogether from fry's 2 years ago.

>>57654243
Well its not surprising, your CPU is a low-mid end one.

Also AMD CPUs and games dont get along.

Read Logicalincrements.com.

Anyway look at frys or microcenter for CPU+motherboard deals.

>>57654233
>rest of your build looks good, dated but still really good
Really? I'd assume that my GPU sucks ass by this point. It was just some stock Cyberpower PC I got for Christmas.

>>57654282
No, that one is actually kinda old, games are somewhat intensive this days.

>>57654299
What would you suggest I'd get then? Or really, what parts would you suggest I upgrade at all? Even a case suggestion, because mine's pretty ugly right now in my opinion.

Also, even another question:
I have no idea how to build/modify my computer at all. Will YouTube tutorials suffice? Obviously I need to know how to swap out parts properly. Is it as simple as plug-n-play?

>>57654175
>if I plug in RAM will it work
yes

>>57654368
It is simple as plug n play.

If you dont need to dont remove the CPU and the heatsink fan though.
With everything else you just have to screw everything again.

GPUs are expensive, depends in your budget.
Case depends on your tastes, Corsair 200r or C70 are some i like but not sure if you would like them.

So today I installed ubuntu and...it crashed. Several times. This confirms that my problem is a hardware issue and not a software issue.

I managed to take pictures of the error reports, so here is one of them. If you would like to see more I will post more.

If anything I just hope that these error reports will point to the exact component which is causing the problem.

>what's the best way to make a gallery without javascript?
Depends on what you mean by "gallery."

Since you mentioned the "back" button, I assume you mean a collection of images you can scroll through?
Or do you mean like
>show thumbnail
>hover
>full-size image displayed

What's your average SOT with the Nexus 6P?

Tried it on my sisters laptop, nothing. Thanks for the help anon

>>57655817
no, it happens and shouldnt be damaged

>>57657022
yea the second part, once you click on an image, it's displayed fullsize or a video plays, you can click next and go through the gallery that way if you wish

I just want to get rid of the trouble with clicking the back button, I want users to be able to click the back button and go back to the main site/blog/wherever they came from rather than #img1 or whatever

What's the difference between a gateway and a router? Both perform the same thing (routing packets between different subsets)

Is there a way to make the windows taskbar thinner? It is fine when you place it up and down, but if you set your taskbar to the left or right it becomes fat as fuck.

any tips anon? still haven't managed to figure it out

Would anyone care to recommend a basic, sturdy, general use laptop or brand? Most guides I found, including in the sticky, focus on gaming. I have a PC for that, I just need something that will hold up well with heavy use - I use my laptop extensively every day for work. It's an oldish Vaio that has held up remarkably well and I'm looking for something similar, but it seems like everything out there is a damn netbook now.

Bitdefender was worth the $60 for the ability to install on three separate systems and the ability to track it, if it ever got stolen.

You could also remotely format it (did it by accident and lost SO much home made pr0n) and there was no way I could recover it, even with FBI-tier CP searching software.

I have a GTX 760. Is it better to get another one and SLI, or just get a 10-series card?

Are there any adapters which turn my coax connection wireless?

I have a coax cable running from 1 room to the other, from wall to cable modem.

There's gotta be like a transmitter I can plug into the wall and a receiver into my modem, no?

Why can't you put your cable modem in the room with the wall jack, then connect the cable modem to a wireless router?

It is technically possible to add a wireless link between your cable modem in the wall, but you're probably not going to find any off-the-shelf product that does it. There's no reason for anyone to make something like that because wireless routers exist.

What folder? If you're using a newer version of OSX, you might be running into system integrity protection: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Integrity_Protection

If that's the case, be sure what you're trying to do isn't retarded before you disable SIP.

>>57658033
well it's just that my old phone broke not that long ago so i now have a really old froyo one, and i'm going to a concert soon, and i really wanna save this experience somehow so i'm gonna just carry my phone in my shirt and do recording of it from the phone. so i wanted to know if i would have gotten much higher quality with the other phone. the example above is exaggerated though, it's more like a $70 vs $200 phone or so (at their default price, today they are $0).

considering the piece of shit of phone that it is, the quality of the mic is pretty damn impressive when recording voice though, both in range and sound to my non-technical ears.

>>57658073
>What's the best way to configure the wifi for the customers?
Do you want it to be open, or do you want to give a passcode on receipts (so only customers get it)?

>>57658112
I suppose open since we don't issue receipts until they leave.

>>57658103
if you have the model name/number of the old phone, it will peobably have specs including the quality of the microphone. That may give you an idea of whether it is higher quality or not than a $50 one, as you can quantitatively compare them.

>>57657268
It's just a terminological distinction, usually they're the same piece of equipment. A router is a piece of hardware that routes packets. A gateway is something that connects one network to another. The gateway function on a network is usually performed by a router, though it can also be done by a bridge or a managed switch (which is arguably a rotuer).

>>57658139
Is there a reason you have too?
You open up your self to alot of legal liability if you do this.How good is your lawyer? if you have one at all.

I know. I've had it locked down and reserved for the kitchen guys to stream music all day.

But in the suggestion box a lot of people are bitching about it. We live in a pretty rural area where coverage can be spotty at times though.

alright, not where I live. Make sure you block 4chan and similar sites.

This is just millennials mooching.I wouldn't even bother with it,liabilty is to high

I connected a sound bar to my TV, and it connected itself via Bluetooth before I could connect the digital sound cable

Is there much of a sound difference to justify using the cable over Bluetooth? I'm not an audiophile so if there isn't I'm leaving it as is

So is there a reasonable way to configure this? Make a splash page? Block a bunch of websites and throttle the bandwidth.

Can I use an Rx 480 with my Optiplex 9010? I'm currently running with my 6870 but wanted to make sure there'd be no UEFI or other such issues.

Can i play dishonored 2 with gtx930m ?

Just ditched Windows 10. Anyway to setup Windows 7 with a dark theme. All the downloads to the old patchers seem dead.

Games which do not support SLI (majority) will not benefit from it at all. Just get one good 10xx card.

You are not responsible for what users do on your public wifi network, just like your ISP isn't responsible for what you do. But for a number of reasons you should not just leave the connection open. Set a password, post it at the counter or give it to customers on request, and change it periodically. A splash page isn't a bad idea, or you can just post your wifi policy conspicuously.

Are i5 cpus generally better than i7? For gaming

Any other way for me to transfer things from my current harddrive to a new built pc? I assume I'll have to format the harddrive if I want to transfer it. If not I have an external hd that I can use to transfer things

>>57658071
I live an an apartment with many different router signals around me. The wireless connection is terrible despite the distance not being more than 20 feet.

>>57658523
An i7 will be better overall, an i5 will be better for the money.

>>57658505
cont.

Also what are the reasons why I shouldn't just simply leave it open?

>>57658505
Not really. There's plenty of info on google. Assuming you're just offering a hot spot in a small cafe and not trying to start your own regional ISP, you really don't have to do anything complicated. A consumer grade router will be fine, and you don't need to do anything special configuration-wise.

My G400 is dying, which model from one of these brands will be a good substitute? I can only spend $60 im on a low low budget.

>>57658636
1. An unsecured wireless network is vulnerable to eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks. Having a password doesn't completely eliminate the risk, but means attackers at least have to come in and get the password. Google can't intercept your traffic while they're driving by. That's also why you change the password periodically.

2. Leaving the network open leaves you susceptible to IoT devices and other garbage that might connect automatically and might be full of malware. Again, using a password doesn't eliminate this risk, but it means there will have to be some human intervention for the devices to connect, and it will have to be repeated each time you change the password.

3. If you have a splash page or post the password along with your terms of use, you have an additional layer of protection if someone does something illegal on your network. That's not the case if they can plausibly claim to have connected to an open network without any knowledge of who was operating it.

Mice are 99% personal preference, 1% sensor.
Find a mouse that is most comfortable to you and stick with it.

Personally, I like the shape of the Zowie EC-2A but the sensor and buttons/clicks on Logitech G303. I wish a mice that had both of those characteristics existed.
