my galaxy s6 charges very fast compared to every other phone ive ever had when plugged into the wall, i believe it has usb 3.0 or something

now which piece is making it charge fast? it can't just be the phone, because it won't charge as fast in the car, so it's either the detachable microusb-usb wire, or the actual plug that goes into the wall?

is there a way to get this fast charging in a car? or is the only thing that matters in a car charger the amperage (eg 2.4a power output on x car charger compared to 3.1a on y charger)

g700s or mx master?

I'm clueless about electronics and have Arduino ambitions. Just need to know how much of this is even doable:

1) 4 pots sending MIDI signals and (important) an LCD in the middle that gets text from a form on the PC.
I'd use that to label the pots without writing parameters on post-its.

2) Also a ribbon controller and a switch that turns it into either pitch bend or modulation and the pots go between two banks of control messages as well.

3) Also four jacks where I can plug in some piezos in rubber pads or something to trigger drums. If one is plugged in, one of the pots now controls the sensitivity instead. I'd mostly just use this for kicks while I bang on a Wavedrum. Low latency is a priority, precision not really.

This is a semi-stupid question.

So, let's say I was given a big psu, 850W.
My build would max it out at 400-450W at most when gaming.
But I want a silent build.
How long would it last without a fan?

Since new psus are more efficient and don't heat up as much and I would run it at approx. 50% capacity 2-3 hours a day. And rest would be idle/browsing.

It can't be that bad right without a fan right?

How come in eroge it is so rare to see the characters use contraception? The best they manage is to pull out before they blow sometimes (which is often offered as a choice to the player at the appropriate time) is this the only method known in Japan or something?

17KB, 441x300px

>>58060888
i would recommend instead installing a temperature-based fan controller into the psu instead of just hoping it won't blow up

this way the fan will only run as fast as it needs to

Found one of these for cheap, can I use as a low power server?

http://www.samsung.com/us/business/displays/digital-signage-accessories/SBB-B64DV4/ZA

>>58060888
exactly. more efficient power supplies do not produce as much heat and therefore can run without the fan. they are designed to last, so the times when the fan is off, you know it is within a safe limit with regards to reliability.

there is no real reason to go for a higher power psu other than the fact they are typically more efficient and suit the need.

500W would need a verrry efficient psu to run fanless for prolonged periods. but it is possible

>>58060888
You still want a fan
A number of PSUs will leave the fan off to a point, if you're worried about noise you should get one of those

If you were dropped naked on an island with plentiful resources how long would it take to build a PC to modern specs?

>>58060940
but no, do not take out the fan. if a good power supply that runs silently tries to turn on the fan, then it needs it.

>>58060910
because of the low birthrate in japan it is illegal to use contraception
pulling out is in a legal greyzone

Ok I did a bunch of Googling for this but couldn't come up with an answer. Maybe you guys can help. I just picked up a Linksys WRT1200AC router. It works pretty well. However, I noticed an issue when I'm on the 5Ghz band. Whenever my Sony Blu Ray Home Theater system is on my download speeds on the 5Ghz band get cut more than in half. 2.4Ghz works fairly well still. When the Bluray player is off I get my full speeds. I tried everything, Disconnecting it from the network, blocking it's MAC address so it wouldn't rejoin, nothing. So now the device isn't even on my network and it's killing my signal. Do you think it could be wireless interference? I haven't really tried moving the router yet and the router and bluray player are about a foot or so away from one another on my TV stand. There doesn't seem to be any way to disable wireless on the bluray player. It's been driving me nuts. I'm thinking about re-configuring my old router to see if I had the issue on there.

>>58061477
Jesus Christ that was it. Putting the 5Ghz band on channel 48 got my speeds up just fine. Didn't change anything with the bluray player. Thanks anon, I can't believe I didn't try that.

Hi /g/, I've been doing some stress testing to see if my PSU can handle the system.

First I ran Unigine alone and as far as I can see it doesn't use the CPU at all.
So when I ran it at the same time with Prime95 I got about 15% worse score in Unigine.

I've read that sign of an inadequate PSU is bad 3D performance but the GPU didn't throttle down the clocks and kept running 100% stable throughout the whole test so I'm not sure.

My question is, did Prime95 affect the Unigine results or do I need a more wattage PSU?

If someone can run unigine with and without prime95 real quick it would mean a lot.

>>58061617
>>58061671
-- try running prime95 with the lowest cpu priority, and unigine with above normal or high priority
you'll probably find unigine will get close to the original score doing that

On my arch thinpad video playback is so slow that you can sometimes watch frames render to the screen. I first thought this was because it has a 1.6Ghz Pentiumm in it and that the cpu was to slow to play video. Fortunately this is not the case and the cpu is only at %20 load when watching videos . Also videos play fine when the window and video is smaller witch leads me to believe that its a video card issue. Also all the mesa libs are installed im using the xf86-video-ati drivers and the card is a ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 or a ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 but I don't know witch. Doas anyone have any ideas?

I have a 32gb micro SD card that doesn't save any changes written to it. For example if you try to delete a file it'll show as deleted until you unplug it and plug it back in, then it'll be back.
Is there anything I can do to fix it or is it just dead? I can't format it either.

>>58065294
I am on the https version.
But it's probably not relevant because it doesn't show up on any other site, and I can't upload any files then either. (nor do I get any error messages when trying)

>>58065325
it might not be syncing the changes immediately
if you're on linux type sync into a terminal
if you're on windows eject the sd with the icon in the little task menu thing or in windows explorer

Do any of you use a 1080p 16:9 monitor in portrait mode? How well does things like PDF documents fit? I'm thinking about getting one to use as my secondary monitor but I can't find any that is both 16:10 and IPS so I have to go with 16:9.

Got a PC outputting to a monitor (1440p 120Hz) via DisplayPort, and I just added a 4K TV through a home theater receiver via HDMI. Whenever I turn the TV on/off or switch inputs, I get black flickering on my monitor, and two of my programs (Pidgin and HexChat) crash. I could find alternatives for those apps, but is there any way to stop this from happening?

well there's a few things you can try at this point:
1. backup firefox config/.profile files and pcmanfm files then reinstall them
or
2. check your distro's forums for anything related to pcmanfm or firefox for anyone with the same problem
or
3. use "strace -o out.log firefox' to log all system calls cut the parts near the end when you do the file selection menu in firefox then strip out any personal info and post the log somewhere we can see
and\or
4. try to narrow down the breaking package by downgrading packages that were upgraded when it broke

alright gl

Have been trying to get an answer on Full to no avail.

I broke my OS (conflicting repos) and in trying to fix it before a fresh install had to reboot. Upon reboot, my USB keyboard worked in GRUB but not once the os launched. After unsuccessfully troubleshooting that, for some dumbass reason I disabled USB legacy boot. (Don't ask me for the logic behind it, I deserved this.)

So then, of course, my keyboard wouldn't work in grub. "Oh shit, better reset the bios."

Except after trying everything for three days, I learned the difference between BIOS & UEFI.

Now I'm stuck on an "rtc battery low, press f2" screen. (Generic cmos reset, battery is new.) I can't do shit.

What I'm wondering is if I made a liveUSB of a bios update and attempted to flash it, would that override this page and save computer? Or am I sol and having to wait until my replacement internal keyboard arrives?

The boot order is set to USB first but neither of my live Linux sticks work; rtc message comes first.
FYI pressing f2 takes me to bios with the time reset to 2009 but none of the variables i.e. USB legacy, changed. This is from prior experience; I can't press F2 without USB running. Is there some other way of resetting UEFI without a keyboard?

What's a good writing/reading app for Android? I'm currently using WriterP, and while it is pretty good, the fact that the title is always visible except when the keyboard is activated ticks me off.

I'm thinking of getting an XPS 13. There are two options for the CPU:
>7th Generation Intel® Core™ i5-7200U (3MB Cache, up to 3.1 GHz)
>7th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-7500U (4MB Cache, up to 3.5 GHz)

Is there a huge difference between the i5 and the i7? Would getting the i7 make the computer last longer?

Also the i7 is $200 more.

is it a good idea to have git keep track of the .gitignore file?

My desktop running win 7 just has a blinking underscore onscreen before it would normally be booting. I tried to figure out what was going on last night with it but had no luck. I could get to the BIOS then, but now it just does the underscore no matter what. Once or twice it was able to get past login, before just hanging a few seconds after. If it wouldn't get that far, it would hang in the middle of trying to boot windows. I don't think my hdd is the issue, because the one i'm using is one I bought very recently and it's been working fine so far. It has something to do with my win 7 installation right? I'm just kind of stuck at this point and could use some help, or some pointers at least.

Nah, that's some bollocks.

In reality it depends what you're doing with it. There isn't a very significant difference, but it'll be noticeable if you're doing a lot of video editing I suppose.

I'm not sure it's really worth $200 more on its own. They're actually the exact same processor, just running at different clock speeds

Dualshock isn't natively supported in Windows. You need to emulate an Xbox controller. I'm on my phone, so I can't link you, but a quick Google on emulating an Xbox controller should give you what you need.

Look at the Microsoft store for the laptop.
I got an XPS 15 from there with an HQ CPU which means it has 4 cores vs the 2 with hyperthreading on the U.

>>58069184
Help? Sure, it is more powerful.

Significantly though? I doubt it. Doesn't the XPS come with integrated graphics though? Gaming isn't something that strikes me as something you should really be doing often.

Honestly an i5 is pretty decent depending on what you're doing with it. It'll handle most things fine. The U series of processors are known for being lower powered for the sake of mobility, but we've reached a point where they're still decent for a large number of purposes

I'm actually on a 6th gen i5 now, the one you're looking at is 7th gen. Not really familiar with FRAPS but if you want me to test something out let me know.

>>58069184
an i7 would honestly not be that big of a deal with vidya recording. what would be a big deal is what integrated gpu it comes with (i don't think the 13 has a dedicated GPU, and idk if there's any difference between the i5 and i7 igpus)

but don't use FRAPS. it's an outdated software. use OBS instead.

I wanted to try and install Xubuntu to mess around with but couldn't get it to the desktop!

First USB that I tried booting into would just give me a plain black screen.

I got another one of my USB drives and when I tried it again I was able to get a little menu and put Try out Xubuntu without installing.
After clicking that it gave me another black screen.

What is the issue and how could I fix it?

>>58069301
>>58069325
It does, unfortunately, have integrated graphics. Though I've looked up benchmarks, and the XPS 13 apparently can handle games like CS GO and Overwatch at low settings.

But I think I'm gonna stick with the i5. And I will check out OBS. Thanks for the advice, guys.

When doing backups, it's using 100% of my secondary HDD, that's ok and all. But it slows things down that shouldn't be reliant on the HDD (like programs and windows itself, where its on my SSD) I'd understand if folders that were on the HDD were slow to load. But it seems like it's interfering with things that should only be on the SSD. Anything I can do?

I'm having trouble with my new ps4 slim. it keeps outputting a black screen.

I'm trying hook it up to my 1080p monitor through HDMI, an Asus VS239H-P.

What's weird is, when I plug it into anything else it will work. I tried plugging it into my 1440p monitor through the same hdmi cable and it worked. however, the screen was obviously tiny because of the resolution difference.

What could be the issue? Why is it refusing to display through this particular monitor? It hooks up to my other monitor, and I've switched HDMI cables a couple times, so it isn't faulty cables.

The monitor isn't faulty, either. I use it all the time to play console games on through HDMI and it works fine.

>>58070214
Is the monitor set to use hdmi?

>>58070223
Yes. I pretty much exclusively use HDMi with it. Both to display a second screen for my PC when I'm not playing games, and to connect it to my other consoles, like my ps3 and wii u.

Its never given me an issue like this before.

>>58069474
Yea I can't get it to work.

I was trying right now and it didn't allow me.

I should also add that my monitor acts like it wants to show something. Usually, when there is no signal, the power light on my monitor will turn yellow. However, it is blue when the ps4 is on, but it only displays black. This means it's getting some kind of signal from it, I believe.

sadly it's very unstable, every few minutes the internet does not work anymore on computer 2. sometimes i get full speed and low ping, sometimes i get very high ping and very low speed.
they both use the same IP so i can use the internet on both computers. i dont really know how well it works on computer 1.

What is the difference between hertz, baud, and wavelength?

>>58070775
stop using flash like everyone else 10 years ago

>>58070738
>Yes. Have you tried pinging it?
yes, it's timing out

my home PC which I want to connect to is on the 192.168.1.0 network (let's say 192.168.1.5)

my laptop is connected to my phone which is tethering it's mobile network. The laptop is connected to the VPN, I can see it in the connected list and it's been granted address 10.1.1.2
So if I ping 192.168.1.5 from my laptop, it doesn't work

>>58070794
But I need it to watch sports streams.

also, pinging the router in that other network works fine, but pinging the laptop on that network doesn't

>>58070853
that's weird, it can't ping itself?
so i'm guessing you can't ping the router on the 192.168.1.0 network either?

/g/, how do I

>>58070853
>windows


does your shitty router

>it can't ping itself

That screenshot was from my home PC. I was pinging the VPN network and the laptop's VPN address (10.1.1.2).

This screenshot is from my laptop, I'm pinging my home network (192.168.1.0) and it works fine for the router as you can see, but doesn't work for my pc

>>58070911
does it what

What Linux live can I use to format my HD? I can't boot with the win 7 CD because it only boots in legacy mode.

I need a tiny distro or software that I can boot from a USB, and wipe the HD so I can install win7 on it

>>58070949
win 7 installer has format options in the installer

>>58070620
then no

>>58070945
topkek whoops

was going to ask about your router config annd if the interface had been setup etc but doesn't matter cuz home router /puke

the ping is probably going through, you're not getting responded to because the device you are pinging is not able to send info back, so look for the config on the .2 device
haven't read everything cuz I'm driving soz

>>58070988

I can't open the installer because Windows 8 doesn't support 7's boot mode. I have to clean my HD without using the Windows CD. I need to boot a tool or a Linux live to empty my HD. What should I use? I can't find anything on Google for this sort of thing

when i go to format a drive in windows 10, it keeps leaving the system files intact. how do i remove EVERYTHING?

What are these services doing on my router? It's Comcast, are these open and on by default usually?

What language do I learn if I want to make a website?

>>58071012
well not sure what I could set up on the laptop, openVPN config doesn't have all that many options and don't think any of them are related to this problem

>>58071189

>>58060810
Go into the BIOS and change the boot order.

>>58061141
Github username and password... probably

>>58071189
HTML, or just cheat and use a tool like Frontpage or Dreamweaver. That's shit pretty much writes HTML for you.

You do therefor you are. If you can't even do then you might not be. If you wish to be then you must first invent the universe.

Easy, just like making an apple pie.

since my main laptop was broken, i'm using my old netbook ASUS N10J. should I change to linux? the WinXP Home is slow as hell.
it got Atom N270, 1024MB of ram, 160GB HDD, and GeForce 9300m 256mb.

I live in a very shitty house with old as fuck wiring leaving only VDSL as my internet option and it is complete ass. How hard would it be to get some actual internet wires installed in my home so I don't have to deal with this shit?

>>58071853
And by how hard, I meant would I need to tear down any walls to get the wiring installed, would I need to replace the current thing I have there?

I accidentally deleted my Clover pics on Android because my phone is garbage and was running out of storage.

First it broke the folder in the gallery, then it made it dissappear altogether. Now when I try to change the save location on Clover it crashes the app everytime.

I tried a couple apps from the play store but they search too broadly, showing a fuckton of images I still have alongside some of the deleted ones.

What can I do? It's 4.4.2, not rooted cause I've been a lazy fuck.

I have an old USB device that isn't recognized in any OS other than XP.

I want to run XP in virtualbox and pass off the USB device to the virtualos, but it doesn't show up in the list of USB devices to pass off. What do?

>>58071853
>>58071875
the hard part is not you rewiring your house. The hard part is convincing a regional ISP to install new wires on the phone poles near you.

Call all of the ISPs around you and ask them about their infrastructure upgrade plans. Be polite, but be annoyingly persistent. It will take you at least 1 year to catch any wind of improvements coming down the line, and at least another year to actually get better internet

>>58071000
no what

>>58071186
80 and 53 are fine, dunno about the other two. how did you get that list?

run "netatat -l -n -p", which will show you which addresses they are listening on and what process they are tied to. It's really fucking important that they're only listening for incoming connections on your local network

Just fuck my shit up senpai.

I want a thin 12" or below laptop with a SSD for cheap, where do I look?

>>58072277
Chromebooks.

>>58072277
old c2d laptops from 2009
>also battery life
chromebooks

Just got a new SSD and I want to switch it to AHCI

Do I still have to do a registry fix? My Windows is installed onto a separate SSD.

How do you leech Internet from my work computer and send it to my phone?

Tried blue tooth hotspot and all that, it's also wired through ethernet

How do I change theme of Transmission GTK? I started digging into dark themes and Transmission is the only software causing my eyes to bleed.
>>58072648
Look up for reverse tethering. If you have old cheap phone you can use it for hotspot as well.

>>58072708

I have a BlackBerry priv

I just want an image editing application similar to Photoshop but doesn't have a cunt of a learning curve. Anything simplistic to use, but capable of depth as you get better?

Is there a better and more sure-way of entering the BIOS with Windows 10?

Currently I have to spam the DEL key on boot but for some reason it isn't 100%.

Just got a new SSD advertised at 250gb

Installed it and it's actually 230gb. I understand this is normal but after fiddling around with it, suddenly it tells me 8gb is being used even though it's a clean format and all I did was put a video file in it and play it then deleted it.

What gives?

>>58061141
Had the exact same problem yesterday. Just use the same syntax they're using for both your name and email, just for identification, and you should be able to pull and push successfully.

well there's syncthing, which replaces all but public access
what you can do for public access is have a machine that syncs just your public folder(s), along with an ftp/http server which points to those folder(s)
