Why are so many famous people dying lately? It is making me uncomfortably aware of my own mortality.

>>58242757
don't worry, you aren't famous

>>58242757
>Why are so many famous people dying lately?
It's actually the same amount of people (mortality has gone down, but population has gone up) as before, it's just that the bar for getting famous has been lowered every year since the rise of pop culture in the 60s.

Today, not only do we have celebrities that are "famous for being famous", we have celebrities that "are famous because they were friends with someone that was famous for being famous". When anyone can start a YouTube channel and get literally millions of followers, of course people are going to find out that you died.

>>58242757
In the end, death claims us all.

>>58242820
In the end, it doesn't even matter.

>>58242810
Uh, anon, a lot of objectively popular celebs have been dying. Like, actors in multimillion dollar movie popular. That arugment doesn't work.

Why do TVs come with a "record" function, through which you can allegedly record your TV signal to a USB device? Wouldn't you need a capture card for that to work?

>>58243067
buy a new flash drive and restore it from your most recent backup, obviously

>>58242909
If there is, it's probably stupid to do. Those exist for security reasons and using a fake number or some "temporary" service or fuck knows what is monumentally stupid if you care about the account at all.

>>58243114
You don't. Daz spaz.

>>58243117
The TV is already "capturing" the signal, how the hell do you think it ends up on your screen as an actual image?

What do you mean?

>>58243067
It could have fucked up your partitions. See if there's some tool out there that can recover partition data or something

>>58243170
So have you ever recorded something from your TV straight to an USB device?

how is the meme whit bad programming called? it is usually badly written code and picture of student

>>58243067
Data is potentially lost, deal with it. I doubt the USB drive would be physically damaged, maybe that tool fucked the partition table or something. Boot up some live Linux distro with gparted, remove any partitions that are left and make a new one. No data, but the drive should work if it's not actually fucked.

I suppose if you want to "save" everything that's still on the drive in raw format, you can use dd.

I never had a use for something like that, I don't even think my TV has such a feature, though I never checked. It's fully doable if a manufacturer wanted to implement such a feature though, digital cable is already encoded, though I'm not up to date on which codec is used nowadays, could still be MPEG-2 or H.264/MPEG-4/AVC. If it's from a HDMI input the signal isn't encoded and dumping it to USB would be impossible due to the huge bandwidth, but encoder chips exist and are commonly used and/or integrated into SoCs and shit.

Do you know how do I get to install the ATIradeonMobilityx2300 drivers of a VAIO VGN-CR31Z? I have been told I need to install them from Vista.

The stupid support can't be more useless. It stopped 7 years ago, I think.

If I install Win 8, will it get fixed magically?

The IT services provider at work has all the technology acumen of a 90 year old with dementia. Pretty much every computer is infected with viruses that automatically infect any flash drives plugged into them as well as network drives. I've told our service provider about this and they've done nothing. I've also raised this issue with my boss as well as his boss and neither have any interest in fixing the problem or finding a new service provider. It wouldn't be hard for me to install some antivirus software but it's explicitly stated in my contract that I'm not allowed to run or install programs which aren't approved by IT services.

Should I give up and find another job before shit really goes wrong (the infected computers handle customer and employee financial details)?

Is there any way to "easily" manage an existing windows installation on a dual boot setup (linux and windows) through a virtual machine?

>>58243249
>Care to elaborate on what "dd" is?
dd is a Unix/Linux tool which you can use for shit like basic file copying operations but more importantly it can read and write straight to some storage device at the low level, without needing a filesystem or anything like that. You can use it to read everything on a flash drive and dump it into a huge, single image file on disk. You can also write that huge file back to the drive later and I'm pretty sure you can mount the file itself under Linux if it contains a valid file system (your flash drive doesn't anyway, it would be readable otherwise).

If you overwrite the drive you could actually lose the data though, if you make a copy first you'd still have it saved, even if it's a rather hard to use format. You'd really need to know what you're doing, especially since the file system is broken. The actual data could also be gone though.

You could also try Recuva or something, but I don't really know if it's smart enough to handle a drive with fucked partitions. It can recover (some) deleted files off of a 100% working NTFS volume, sure, but I never tried it on something with shat on partitions.

I feel like I kind of fucked myself over by doing Vega & Altair first. Would have been more impact if I'd waited until last so it led into the true end.

I'm the guy who had a lightning strike fry some shit a while ago.

I had tested the PSU voltages (on the non-working computer) and they were fine (OFF THE EPS CPU POWER CONNECTOR). The motherboard was obviously toast, so I replaced that, and turned her on.

My fucking hard drive connector just caught on fucking fire.

I panicked, unplugged the hard drive, then plugged only the ATX and EPS connectors and booted to the BIOS. Voltages there seemed fine. I don't remember which wire it was, but one of the molex ones read 8V which is obviously a fucking no-no.

I then noticed that the case fans weren't spinning up.

This just keeps getting worse, because now that drive is dead. What the fuck do I do? Is it a bad power supply?

Have a look at it with gparted under Linux, Windows can be fucky with drives if their partition table is fucked. Linux too, but you could actually see what state it's in. I don't think there's much, if anything, software can do to physically destroy it, worst case scenario it left it in an invalid format somehow and Windows can no longer detect it. Just use gparted to make a new partition table on the thing.

I once had a 500GB HDD that had its MBR fucked up, Windows wouldn't recognize it and it would literally cause any Linux distro I tried to kernel panic a few seconds after it was plugged in. I erased the MBR entirely, repartitioned and the drive is 100% fine.

One mistake was not testing every single connector coming off the PSU. Another was trusting it at all after already having something fry.

>>58244649
Looks good to me. Values you need to watch are read error rate, reallocated sectors count, seek error rate, possibly spin retry count, Recallocation event count, current pending sector count, uncorrectable sector count. You can see on your old one, there are 24 reallocated sectors meaning 24 sectors on the drive went bad and they were re-mapped somewhere else.

Roll back to Windows 7

I'm trying to recover some data off my note 5. It has been turned off immediately after the deletion, wifi/data turned off, and is rooted with usb debugging enabled. It has terminal emulator and busybox installed.

I'm trying to copy /dev/block/mmcblk0 (the whole partition) to an OTG USB (which is twice in capacity than the phone btw). Nothing I do works.

I tried adb pull (via wifi) to the usb (/storage/UsbDriveA/), doesn't work
I tried cat, doesn't work
I tried dd, doesn't work

It doesn't work I've concluded because of permissions set to mmcblk0 (179) but when I try to chmod 777 it doesn't work. Tried setting the permission with filexplorer, doesn't work either although it shows that the permissions have been set. I suspect this because the programs finish/exit, and the output file has been created, but is 0 bytes in size.

Any suggestions?

I'll use testdisk and photorec to recover the files (videos)

alright, seems like your DNS cache is outdated.

disclaimer: I have no idea about OSX, this is just copied from somewhere.
if you're running the latest version run

sudo dscacheutil -flushcache;sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder;

to clear it, then close the browser and try going to that page again.

>>58246091
It's pretty damn weak. Best you can do is reduce its workload. Install a light linux distro like lubuntu, or switch windows to minimum appearance settings, turn game settings to minimum, and if it comes down to it, drop the system resolution.

None of your ports support VGA. You should be able to run any combination of ports. I recommend passive displayport to HDMI

Having an issue with MTR on one of my servers when using an additional IP.

When using MTR against some specific host names (google.com is the prime example) it tells me that the interface address is bad, any ideas why this would happen? I thought it was DNS but it seems unrelated.

Example:

Working:
mtr --address <interface_ip> bbc.co.uk
mtr --address <interface_ip> 4chan.org

Not working:
mtr --address <interface_ip> google.com
mtr: bad interface address: <interface_ip>
mtr: Couldn't set interface address.

Wondering if someone else could try this on their machine, set --address as your current ip and mtr to google.

8.8.8.8 is googles DNS server, it gives you the correct IP to the server, where as your current server does not for whatever reason only ATT knows.
That's why you can't get to the website because it's no longer there.

http://osxdaily.com/2015/12/05/change-dns-server-settings-mac-os-x/

add 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and it should start working again, you might need to clear the cache again as you did before after changing.
Then running dig without @ should point to 54.*

>>58249256
Not in general. If the goal is to produce a specific output, that's not "procedural" per se. Of course Minecraft can give you the seed for generating a world after the fact, but that's not the same as a catch-all scheme to go from world to seed and back again. (Disclaimer: I don't actually play Minecraft, just using this as an example)

That said, it does work in certain contexts. For instance, in a game like CoD/Smash/etc. with a replay option, they save all the game inputs and simulate the game on the system, which uses far less space than storing a video. In the past developers have used procedural generation for things like textures, but it's not the go-to strategy for optimization.

using a processor that isn't overlocked, is it worth buying a CPU cooler? would it be noticeable quieter than the box cooler?
I have an i5 4460 and I'm thinking about getting something like SilentiumPC Spartan 3 PRO HE1024 but I'm not sure if it would change anything at all

Can my computer handle macOS?

It works on VMWare, but I can't install it directly on my computer. It won't boot into the installer no matter what I do.

I've Googled it plenty of times and nothing works. I've tried all methods possible. Even tried different USB drives. It refuses to boot into the installer. Nothing shows up. It just boots into Windows. Even if I force it, it just boots into Windows.

I don't know for your cpu but for my fx 8350 it improved both temps and noise. Most default cooler are shit

Question for applefags. I just created an appleid for my ipad, and I do not want to add a credit card to the account. Apple is telling me that first time users need to add a valid CC to the account to download apps. That being said, I can remove it once I add it.

1. Are there any workarounds?
2. Can I add a CC number, remove it, and then add the same CC number to activate a different appleid?
3. Why is this necessary?

>>58250055
Well, they should because, while harmless, they are a skin irritant for a lot of people.

They're carpet beetle larvae. Not even their final form. Have fun getting rid of them.

...and you do want to get rid of them...

Should I get CAT6, 6A or 6E cables? The modem I'll use them on is 6 years old, in case it matters.

>>58250683
Yes, go into your settings on the account and change your age to under 18. It will remove the requirement.

it matters if your LAN cables are hundreds of meters long

>>58250744
>only matters in LANs
Not really. CAT5 is still plenty unless you're constantly pushing terabytes of data through a home server or some shit. If you're just hooking up a desktop to your internet then literally any cable will work about the same.Vaguely

Is there a way to block ads from showing, but not block them from loading?
I like the idea that on sites I want to support I could have the ads load so they can get their ad revenue, but I don't have to see them

it does not require a separate power plug. its powered trough the PCI-E slot

Couldn't find a linux general so I'll ask here. I'm using KVM\QEMU, libvirt, OVMF firmware and passing through a GTX 1060 to my Windows 10 VM.

Without the card being passed through boot is extremely fast (5 256gb ssds in raid 5).

Whenever I boot with the gfx card I'm getting a severe delay in time for the actual firmware to init.

Any ideas? Really don't want to downgrade my kernel.

>>58250809
Stick with a reinstall, that backup and restore shit got Microsoft sued by a jewish woman already.

>>58251502
Turn it on.

If it works you didn't fuck up your PSU.

>>58251512
and if it doesn't?
It was working originally but I wasn't getting any feedback from my monitor, so I took out my GPU, reinstalled it and now it refuses to turn on

No you don't, it's a simple copy and paste all your documents, music and shit to the new hard drive. This isn't hard.

did you fucking forget power connectors or someshit
did you turn the PSU switch at the back on

>>58251702
You will just use less power as the screen is off.
I use my laptop in the same way when im home daily

>>58251702
ask yourself if it covers fan vents
ask yourself if you can turn off the primary display because it will generate heat

>>58251717
refuses to turn on as in hitting the power button does nothing, though I couldve sworn I saw the light on the network adapter flash
reinstalled as in inserted it back into the motherboard
>power connectors
all plugged in
>PSU switch
its on

>>58251737
Check your breakers

>>58251737
post a picture of your build right now

>>58251737
You got the voltage switch on the PSU set to the correct voltage? 115V if you're in the US, 220V for most of Europe.

>>58251759
breakers?
>>58251767
I've only got a really shitty phone camera, so it doesn't really work for the whole build, but I can take pictures of individual parts

how would I go about changing it?

How can I get the website title from an URL using a bash script.

For example, for URL "https://boards.4chan.org/g/thread/58242657", the output would be "/g/ - /sqt/ - Stupid Questions Thread - Technology - 4chan"

>>58251849
and I should mention that it was powering on before I reinstalled the GPU

>>58251849
Circuit breakers/fuses for your home.

The voltage switch is usually bright red, and located on the back of the PSU (visible from the outside of the case). If it's stubborn, use a screwdriver to flip it.

>>58251878
don't seem to have a voltage switch, and the problem doesnt seem to be external because the outlet its connected to works with other things

looks like it was the CPU power cord, must've not snapped in or something like that
however, it refuses to connect to my screen, which is connected to the GPU because it's old and my motherboard doesnt support VGA
It's an old r5 230 1gb from best buy since that's the best I could get on such short notice, is there a way to check to see if the GPU is working or not?
It doesn't seem to have any lights so seeing if they turn on isnt an option

>>58252677
>which is connected to the GPU
remove GPU
connect monitor to mobo
check to see if integrated graphics in bios is enabled
if it is, stick GPU back in, otherwise, keep removed
keep monitor connected to mobo
install windows
install Intel drivers
turn off system
install GPU
connect GPU to monitor, turn on
if you get no signal from the AMD generic driver, find a cheap Nvidia card instead

>>58252735
fug, thats the problem man
my mobo doesnt have VGA compatibility, and the only adapter I have is for VGA-DVI-D, while the mobo only supports DVI-I

Do all PSUs have a basic set of connecters that they all have? Like all PSUs have at least 1 PCI, 2 molex or whatever

>>58252760
then buy an adapter
return the r5 230, you don't need it when you already have an integrated graphics card
keep saving money for at least an rx 460/470 or a cheap ti version from Nvidia whenever

>>58252789
I just need to get this shit up and running asap, haven't got time to return the r5 230
is there no other way?

>>58252766
Yes.

>>58252833
you have time to return the r5 230, you have all the fucking time in the world
most people don't realise this until they're dead
