So, I'm running Jessie and going to change to Stretch. Is it alright to just upgrade, or reinstall?

Is there an easy way to use a 3.5mm male cord with an optical female? Have some old [spoiler]Turtle Beaches[/spoiler] I'd like to use, and I'm broke as fuck. No upgrading for me

>>57814810
Just switch your sources.list to Stretch and do apt update, apt upgrade, and apt dist-upgrade. Stretch isn't even stable yet(that I know of), so I would go for Testing, maybe Sid after you get the hang of things.

I don't know I'm hoping not but it's mainly to create a multi boot OS installer so I can stop downloading so many isos

>>57814876
Excellent, so there's not a big chance of corrupting something during the upgrade? I know Mint always says reinstall. I guess as long as everything's backed up, it doesn't matter too much.

Something about out of memory and something else I stupidly didn't write down. I can't recall as it was two days ago this happened.

I might be coming into a brand new free MacBook air. Long story short it was delivered to a large facility I work alongside by accident with no name, no recipient, no claim and it wasn't from any large retailer. It's a rogue delivery that nobody has mentioned since it arrived over 2 weeks ago.

Is it possible/does apple have any type of remote block on the BIOS level? Since its relatively low storage I was considering just throwing Linux on it.

what am i overlooking here, i formatted the card and everything

Any good suggestions on guides/books of how to use and create sessions for web development?

359KB, 1104x1080px

I'm overclocking my GTX980 and experiencing crashes even though my temperatures never get anywhere near max. Temperatures top out at around 60-65C, but I keep experiencing crashes every 30-40 minutes in games.

Would I want to up the voltage, or lower core clock Hz? I feel like +75MHz isn't very much to the core clock, so I feel like I should be upping the voltage, but I'm still fairly new to overclocking so I don't want to accidentally give it too much juice.

I don't think you can use DTA over multiple tabs

>>57814760
So I'm planning on adding aliases to bash

alias vps1='ssh [email protected]'

then I back it up to my dotfiles repo on my github - would showing my vps' IPs be a bad idea? considering I don't use domain names people just connect to my sites using the IPs

>>57815898
crashes have nothing to do with temparature, it's just a limit on how far you can go.
if your overclock is getting unstable then yes, you want to start increasing the voltage. this will increase the temparature as well, so watch out for that.

>>57816316
As long as it's properly secured, it'll probably be fine.

>>57816316
put the a host name into your hosts file so you can use a name instead of the ip directly.

>>57816422
alright can you explan what I put where?

#<ip-address>   <hostname.domain.org>   <hostname>

>>57815527

>>57816452

x.x.x.x myhostname

>>57816192
>>57816077
Yeah they're spinning and brand new.

Before replacing all the fans and paste the laptop would get into the 90s and shut down 10 minutes after being turned on.

Now the temps are slightly better, and so far it hasn't shut down due to overheating - although I haven't had it on for more than an hour and I've only used Chrome on it.

So I'm running Firefox Nightly and with the most recent version they removed plugin support so I'm stuck running webms off of the shitty HTML5 video player that ships with firefox. I'd like to use a custom video player on sites that don't provide their own (e.g. 4chan) but I have no idea how to go about doing that. I think replacing the video player could be done with a greasemonkey script, but unfortunately I can't write javascript for shit.

Any ideas?

is it possible to log all the traffic that is going in/out of a wifi network? assume i already have access to the network. dont care if i cant read https. what tools do i need for this?

>>57817630
You need a network driver that supports putting your card/adapter into promiscuous mode and then you need a packet sniffing program like tcpdump.

If you have access to the wifi AP and can run anything on that, it's a lot easier. Then you just need tcpdump and run it on the WLAN interface.

>>57817539
pay someone to write the script for you.
what do you want a custom player for anyway? what features are you missing from the default? or is it just for visuals?

Not just HP. I have a Sony Vaio that does pretty much exactly what you describe. Idles at about 80'C (both the CPU and GPU), and relatively light tasks are enough to cause it to shut off. Relatively new cooler (replaced a couple years ago) and redid the paste a few months ago.

Recently built a new PC. When I moved my old harddrives over, my Windows 7 drive stopped letting USB devices function when I reach the login screen.
Is this a driver issue between the old install and my new motherboard?
I'm running linux on the primary harddrive. Can I just drop new drivers into the sys32/driver folder and get it working, or is there more to it?
If I have to install Win10, can I quarantine my Linux drive and data drive from it so that telemetry doesn't touch my shit (I only use Windows for a couple of games and naught else) or will Microsoft try to get into it anyway?

Sadly I lost my Win7 install disc ages ago.

Also, I think you can download win7 from ms and then make a bootable usb.

>>57819178
I would need to know my product key, wouldn't I?

And no. I had a computer with two harddrives. One had a Windows OS, one had a Linux OS.
I built a new computer. The only old parts I kept were the two solid state drives.
I connected them to the new rig. The Linux works fine. When I run Windows, I am able to use my USB mouse and keyboard in the boot menu and BIOS, but when it reaches the actual login screen, both devices stop functioning. They do not work in any of the safe modes, either.

>>57819228
Windows doesn't like to work if you simply move its drive to a new system without reinstalling. It's configured for the hardware from the old system and when it doesn't find it it's not happy.

>>57819142
just a guess, but smb usernames are usually domain\username, so I assume it saves it as \Cocks and when displaying it it thinks it's an escaped C which it can't display and only shows ocks then.

you can use a product key extractor.
do you use usb3 connection because win7 doesn't have the drivers out of the box, you need to install them yourself.

Fug. Yeah, the new MoBo has only USB3.
Since I can mount the Windows drive under Linux, is it as simple as placing the drivers in the ./driver folder, or is there more shit to do?
Would a PS/2-USB adapter get me around it so that I could tell Windows to install its own shit?
I need to login to Windows to run a product key extractor is the thing.

>>57819245
I can unfuck whatever else might be wrong with it so long as I can actually log in to it. All I need right now is to get my USB working so I can interact with it; it clearly is willing to load and display the OS on the new hardware.
You're right, though. Repair/reinstall would be my go-to if I had my disc.

Closed. Opened case is better only if you have no case fans at all.

>>57820565
Aye captain. How does a closed case offer better cooling though? Is it because its design "directs" the air flow towards the heatsinks inside?

>>57815072
Bumping for interest

>>57816580
No, you're just shit at putting things back together. Check for proper contact between heatsink and the die and check that the fan is plugged into the proper header.

>>57819792
Event Viewer?

>>57820603
CPU and GPU are not designed to get rid of that hot air for good, just to blow it away from their respective parts. Properly installed case fans though makes your case into somewhat of an air pipe which intakes cool air and vents out hot air.

So proper fan-made air flow in case much faster than natural convection and hot air from your CPU and GPU fans will less likely stick around in the case that way.

That is your client timing out. It's a waste to keep it open if you don't use it for hours. Also, that is not a true "tunnel", if it was your entire connection would port through like vpn or dialup, not just connecting over port 22, I don't think connection like that counts as a tunnel.

Everywhere that I worked that had a true tunnel, if I'm not mistaken the connection is happening at the router level because the entire network would see servers as if they were local without making any changes to their connection.

>>57822349
in my experience, windows 8+ are pretty good for moving between machines as-is
for older versions, sysprep will do
just;
1. run sysprep
2. set it to "generalize" and "shutdown"
3. once it's done and shut down, move the disk to the new machine (don't boot it on the old machine, else you'll need to run sysprep again)

might be a good idea to download (but not install) some drivers for the new hardware beforehand, notably network/wifi ones

note: you may need to reactivate windows afterwards

I dislike you people sometimes. I bet most of the people whining about hard drive failure don't have any sort of backup. Given this, I will remind everyone again that you should ALWAYS have some sort of backup. Even if it's a NASbox running some RAID, have the data from your main drive backed up, have a list of important media on a text file if it's too much for backup, and always be on the lookout when the drives report any errors.
If your CPU gets kill, it's no problem, buy another one. If your storage fails, you can always buy more, but you are definitely fucked.

Well, what exactly isn't working at this moment? And what steps have you taken up until this point? Post more context else it becomes very hard to help you.

Read the last part for what went wrong. Currently on my restored backup CM with gapps.

Tried installing CM and freecyng at the same time. Tried installing CM, booting into it, then freecyngn. Same result.

I blew all the dust from my computer's insides and after hooking everything back up now it won't boot anymore.
The LEDs light up, the fans spin, and then a second later it shuts down, then it starts up again and does the same thing, over and over.
There also seems to be a quick screetch or buzzing coming from the motherboard when it happens, but i can't tell if it's really from the mb since as far as i know it doesn't have one of those speaker thingies. There's a thing called a 'phase led' on it that has 4 lights, all of which light up when the computer attempts to start.

things i already tried:

taking all the RAM out
taking the GPU out
taking the CMOS battery out
taking the power connectors out and back in.

nothing worked.

webm related. pls responde.

Hi, I've got a user at my work who's having a trouble with her browser. Of course, she's determined to use Internet Explorer despite the other available options. At first glance the browser looks like it's frozen, yet when you scroll and observe the mouse; you'll notice that scrolling function is working (links will move when you scroll); it's just that the browser doesn't follow. The only way to fix this, is to shut down the process and start over (once it hangs, it will affect all sites).

Now I've disabled the enhanced protected mode and disabled the hardware acceleration. What can possible cause the issue as explained above?

My boss is starting another company and already bought a learning management system and is putting me on charge of it.

Maybe your chingchong PSU is dead or you actually had a tiny particle of metal somewhere in your case that you moved into a position where it shorts something out while blowing out the dust.

>>57825555
how do i find this option?

>>57825581
> Boot into TWRP.
> Wipe /data and /system.
> Install CyanogenMod.
> Install freecyngn.
> Boot to Android.
> Reboot to recovery.
> Mount /data.
> Install freecyngn again.
Do this and report back. Preferably download CM and freecyngn afresh to make sure the ZIPs you have aren't simply corrupted. If it still doesn't work then tell us what apk you're trying to install and post error messages/screencaps.

I have a steam library on SSD, and another one on HDD. I want to move a game (~35gb) from the HDD to the SSD.

Is that as simple as moving the folder /steamapps/common/<game> to the same parent directory on the other drive? I googled it and they say to just make another steam library on the SSD, I'll do that if I have to but I'd prefer not to. Is steam smart enough to "see" the new change in existing library folders?

>>57825942
>I'll do that if I have to but I'd prefer not to
why not?

>>57825942
Create a new library, copy the game's directory, uninstall the game and then reinstall in the new library, which will make steam recognize your copied files.

>>57826407
no i just want to test MPV/VLC see if they will play blocked videos. So I need a video that is actually blocked in order to test.

I can reuse a old Compaq case for a new build meanwhile the motherboard fits (mATX) and i can replace the PSU right?

>>57826570
Problem with non-whitebox cases is that they have propriatery shit sometimes making simple things like PSU impossible to change unless you start hacking shit off the case.

So all that I can say is, look at the standard parts and look at the case, if it fits it works.

stupid question:
how do I work clamAv on windows?

Best VPN for torrents? Preferably one that i can download a torrent of it.

>>57826650
VPN will leak your IP because IPv6.

Best and cheaper is to use a seedbox.

Can anyone confirm is this receiver can output 4K/60hz at 4:4:4
The manual on Pioneer site say yes, but on Amazon is listed as 4:2:0
Can anyone confirm or deny?
In the case that I buy that receiver and isnt capable of 4:4:4 Amazon wouldnt have a problem with the refund?

Alright, so, I'm in need of a laptop and I want something with an active pen digitizer, since I like to draw and generally do art. I currently have an x220 tablet, but with all the issues I've been having with it, I'm thinking about throwing it on ebay if I can find something better.
(issues: screen pressure spots, brittle and creaky plastics, rubber trim pieces falling off, very inaccurate digitizer, okay performance, chugs in applications like photoshop, 2.5-3.5 hours of battery life on power saver mode, etc)
Anyone know of any good laptops or tablets (better than this at least) with an active digitizer for <$300?
The elitebook 2760p looks seems to be better built, but has most of the same issues, the dell XT3 is supposedly a time bomb before the digitizer dies, and the x230t is the same as what I have, just with a better cpu/graphics.
I don't mind buying used if it's in good shape, I just want something that'll work, and if new, with decent warranties if in case something goes wrong, which is why I ruled out the Cube i7 stylus.

>>57826647
You dont, you use superior Malwarebytes and Adwcleaner.

Can I connect my new pc to a monitor with just an hdmi cable or do I need to buy the fat vga cable?

CS related question.
Does anyone have any good methods or resources for learning natural deduction/box proofs? I'm stuck on understanding how disjunction and contradictions work, and every single paper on the subject makes no fucking sense.

Are used laptops from amazon warehouse deals the same as new laptops? The listing says "Very good" but I don't know if it's total bullshit.

Im fucking lost; im trying to connect a router to my modem, in a way that if I connect my steam link to my modem, it detects my pc that is connected to the router.

I tried with a sitecom router and also with a linksys but i just cannot get it to work man, its fucked up. I need some fucking help. I tried so many things.

>>57827194
"very good" is a used condition, so no, it's not the same as new. look at warranties and return policies.

Have deluge automatically start using .torrent files and place all ones you use in there.
Movie the completed ones to the deluge finished torrents folder.
Hash check.

ATi gave NV some serious competition. HD 5800 blew them the fuck out.

>>57827516
Athlon CPUs.

>>57827541
>>57827516
Also APUs in laptops if we trow efficiency out the window.

>>57827537
>>57827541
>>57827559
So Intel beat them during core 2 duo and nvidia during the GTX 500 series?

>>57827528
Right click the torrents in qbit and copy the mag link and open them in deluge, move the file over to deluge's download file, turn torrent on and hash check

>>57827624
this is going to take some time
thanks!

>>57827608
Pretty much.

AMD hasnt released anything new worth buying since the FX8350 4 years ago and some low end APUs.

That is why ZEN is so important for them.

What rpm do you guys run your computer fans at? The default where a bit (alot) loud for my taste so I tuned it down to something like

case fans (based on cpu temp)
35% speed up to 40°C.
40% speed up to 55°C.
50% speed up to 70°C and 60% after that (fan goes to 1600rpm so my curve goes from 550-1000~ rpm I think after 50% speed they get too wooshy for my taste)

on cpu I use
50% up to 40°C
65% up to 65°C
80% up to 70°C and max after that


does this look normal/OK you guys think?

>>57826404
Anyone who knows their C++ know what;s wrong?

>>57827692
And important for the consumers because Intel stopped focusing in power and efficiency.

CPUs are pretty much the same since Intel 2nd gen.

I did a fresh install of Windows 10 on my Samsung - 850 EVO 500GB. Since I have all my files and games on my HDD, how can I launch games and use files from my SSD? Do i have to install them again to get faster load times? How do I download/install files without bloating and using up all my SSD space?

EVGA PSUs come with a black box to turn the PSU on so you dont have to do the paperclick trick.
