Reposting with new information in new thread.

Currently trying to set up a PS2 emulator (PCSX2) to play FF12 Zodiac Job System, but even after completely updating windows and manually uninstalling/reinstalling windows vc+++ redist i'm getting the same error. "The program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-heap-l1-1-0.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." Yes I have reinstalled the program multiple times.

Doing some research told me that's cause the installation is failing and to update windows and THEN install the vc+++ redist, but that didn't work either. Read some stuff about Windows Update KB2999226 but the standalone installer just stalls at 'searching for updates on this computer'.

Suggestions?

wife's hp 350 laptop's touchpad doesn't work after sleep, which is super bothering. The only thing I found is that removing the synaptics driver fixes the problem, but then you don't have stuff like 2 finger scroll and jsut the standard mouse settings. ALso, the said driver comes right up again with windows update/on it's own.

How can I remedy this shit ? She has to ctrl+alt+del and restart with just the keyboard everytime.

muchas danke in advance!

If I install a new windows 7 on top of my current one on a new disk, what will happen?

Like will it create a windows old folder? Will it remain intact but not work? Will it give me the option to boot either?

>>57965759
i'm not
can you just answer the questions?

>>57965742
Not really recommended, but have you tried downloading the dll and slapping it in the windows folder?

I mean, if nothing else works.

>>57965771
it will move the old installation to windows.old or something like that and you will only be able to access the new installation.
Imho the good old solution to format everything is better.

>>57965738
I've got this, works well and lots of features

https://www.asus.com/Networking/RTAC68P/

>>57965787
Do you have any idea where exactly in the windows folder it goes? Or does it even really matter?

I'll try anything at this point.

>>57965738
>>57965802
And make sure you don't also need a modem. Your ISP might have given you a shitty modemrouter combo.

If you need a cable modem too I suggest the SB6141: https://www.amazon.com/ARRIS-SURFboard-SB6141-DOCSIS-Cable/dp/B00AJHDZSI

>>57965804
You usually just slap it into System32.

>>57965667

>>57965798
Which disk will the windows.old folder be placed at? The new or the old?

Formatting would be a bit of hassle.

There are some data that I'd like to transfer from it's HDD.
What would be the best way?

1. Get IDE to SATA adapter or rack?

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL MOTHER FUCK........................

I'm trying to set ranger to actually open shit properly and it's fucking disgustingly dysfunctional.

FOR FUCKS SAKE I set vim as the default application, SUCH THAT vim.desktop exists, properly, is accurate and fully written properly, is set as the default in all proper mimetype locations.

% touch example
% vim example
% more example
HELLO
% xdg-mime query filetype example
text/plain
% xdg-mime query default text/plain
vim.desktop
% xdg-open example
% 

SUCH THAT when executing xdg-open, it opens ANY file registered as text/plain in vim. PROPERLY.

However, in RANGER with the following config on rifle.conf

has xdg-open, flag f = xdg-open "$1"

It fucking opens every text file in CHROMIUM.

What the literal fuck am I doing wrong here?

>>57967547
reinstalling fucks your personal files, good thing you have backed up everything anyway in case of hard disk failure.

>>57967608

oops, let me rephrase that.

every single time. Looking at resource monitor I see that system is still writing to $LogFile. How do I make it stop? One workaround is to open disk management and make that drive offline.
It's quite annoying. Can I automate it with a script or something? I'm on win7.

>>57967603
search your pc for the

mimeapps.list

can be in .config or in .local/share/applications

have a look at it, and you should have only one

otherwise I dunno... rename the one in .config and try again

I have a laptop (X200t) with VGA out only. Can I use a 1440p monitor well? I have read that VGA/1440 sucks, but many 1440p monitors have VGA inputs.

If I get a monitor without VGA, is it worse to use an HDMI/DVI/DP adapter than direct VGA->VGA?

How about 4K?

>>57967777
Both of them are sitting firmly in the default section, I tried renaming the one in .config to BACKUPmimeapps.list, and running

update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime

but still haven't managed to make anything work. Still opens in chromium. I'm getting genuinely livid.

>>57965746
No idea about the first problem, but you can find the hardware ID's for the trackpad and stop windows from automatically updating the drivers for the hardware ID which will stop the drivers coming up again

Try reverting to an older driver, I had trouble with my thinkpad trackpad when I first got it, all of the above worked for me

yeah! interestingly, with the 'pure' driver direct from synaptics page, the LED stays on when the touchpad is on. With the original one it was ON , only when the touchpad was off

>>57967930
i tried everything i could think of about drivers, i will google that with the hardware ID and disabling the updates. i'm not familiar with it, but thanks

>>57967973
is should be be on only when off
anyway try pressing it when not working... something is triggering offing of touchpad...

if you have win10 there, then for comfort rollback to win8 or win7 or whatever was there originally?

>>57967964
Alright thanks, will do

>>57967987
it think it's somehow rigged with the power of the display going off because of the lid. tried pressing it with finger from every possible angle, couldn't trigger it to turn off.

btw just saw, that the LED is again by default OFF, so the driver has to have gotten updated presumably by win update.

Any of you ever buy used clothes before?

Would you recommend it?

I am not a poorfag, I simply don't give my money away for free. I have for the most part completely shunned buying things at retail stores and order from online. I was just looking at columbia jackets and see you can get them insanely cheap used.

Would you do it?
Have you ever done it?

>>57968555
I wouldn't do it.
I don't trust people.
Surely someone wiped his ass with it and then returned it.

>>57968314
youtube videos are generally a bad place to start with anything, most of them don't know what they're talking about in the first place, and it's a lot slower than just reading documentation directly

there's a lot more to video encoding than you might think, ffmpeg docs and forums like doom9 are good resources
i often look up what others are doing, then look further into the things they're using to find out why they're using them

>>57968454
learning to use ffmpeg specifically is only one reason to read its docs. ffmpeg supports a shitload of formats, codecs, and common filters, so learning to use ffmpeg will teach you about those things in general as well, at the very least, it can be used as a glossary

Not getting a response in the FGLT so I'll try here. It is a pretty stupid question.

I have openSUSE tumbleweed in a VM right now, and I followed the steps I've found online for installing packman and the various media codecs which you don't have by default in that distro. MP3's don't play. I also tried using FLAC files as well, as it looks like FLAC is one of the codecs which openSUSE does come with by default - that didn't work either.

Is this just something with my virtual machine which shouldn't happen if I actually try installing it?

>>57969247
It depends on the size of the house, the height of the walls etc. Powerline works just fine if you have decent electrical system. I suggest you start with a single router on the second floor, as you said. Some kinds of powerline adapters can also provide wifi but I've seen mixed reviews about those, i personally just connect a generic router to the powerline ethernet

I spilled liquid on my front panel IO and now the headphone jack doesn't work. The motherboard jack picks up a lot of noise for whatever reason. Is there anything to do other than buy a new case? Are the front panel IO wires replaceable? or do you think its going to be a problem with the motherboard or the actual Jack?

>>57969748
Dry that shit immediately. Try a cotton swab. If it still won't work, your shit is fucked.

>>57969748
First thing you need to do after spilling liquid on hardware is to remove any power supply to avoid shorts. Then carefully clean and dry everything as soon as possible to avoid deposits. The computer should be turned on only after everything is clean and dry.

I've been trying to copy my OS over from my HDD to my SSD
Disk is 1GB but the OS partition is small enough to fit on the SSD along with the system files partitions
Went to make a complete copy of both partitions, then did it again but this time I remember to set them as primary rather than logic, and make the system partition set as active
Doesn't boot, BIOS falls down to original disk and boots from there
I tried doing it with the wizard of minitool partition tool but it still isn't able to boot

My WiFi adapter is very unstable and it keeps the connection but the speed drops to 0 for a split second before shooting back up.

Here is a network graph of my connection to explain it better. It works fine on ethernet but wifi it does this.

The signal is good, speeds are good, but just this split second lag is unbearable. Is it interference? Bad range? Or just the wifi adapter going bust?

it's ok. fast enough unless your job is just typing shit in 24/7

is there a way to verify the quality/authenticity of a flac audio file?

in other words, how to confirm it was encoded from a legit cd and not re-encoded from an mp3

yea see if it sounds like shit

i want to build an EEG alarm. basically a couple of electrodes plus headphones that can be jacked into a smartphone.

i can tinker a bit but i would prefer to avoid DIY my own circuit. I'd rather start from a finished product.
can you suggest me a cheap and effective EEG to buy and hack?

  getOneById: (id) => {
    return knex('coffee_tbl').where('id', id)
  },
  getOneByCoffee: (name) => {
    return knex('coffee_tbl').where('name', name)
  }

Which one is correct?

Should I be getting information by an id or a name? I feel like I should be getting it by name if I create a search bar. I feel like I should go by id if I was presenting a list of information. I can't seem to google the proper question I'm asking.

(This is using knex.js, a SQL query writer).

And for example. In a URL would it be more proper to have

https://www.coffee.com/Cortado

OR

https://www.coffee.com/12

How does the second one even work? It's a single page app built using react. The top one looks right, but I can't seem to get the answer I'm looking for.
