What's the best device I can read my pirated academical books on?

>>58543277

Ok, so, how does one produce posts like this

>>>/a/152380469

Where the font appears to be different? Is it some kind of unicode or something that looks like text or what?

>>58543376
just copy and paste it

What's 4chan's irc channel where I can report threads? Or any other means to contact mods/janitors asap.
Some pedo threads in /tv/ take too long to take down.

My laptop has a broken touch screen. Is there a way to disable it in Lubuntu? I usually use KDE, i3, or XFCE depending on my mood, but I'm willing to stick with one if only one has the option. If the touch screen isn't disabled, it does crazy clicks in the broken area and I can't do anything.

>>58543394
Most janitors are pedos on that shitboard.
Just report them and move along.

>>58543395
>>58543369
Ok thanks, interesting. For a moment there I thought 4chan had some kind of actual font change functionality.

>>58543405
I don't think so. If they are janitors themselves, then surely 4chan would've audited and removed them by now.

Do people actually use the 4chan IRC? I'd imagine all IRCs to go the way of the dodo now that Discord exists.

>>58543506

Yeah right.
Discord is only good for meme sharing, and that's it.

I haven't coded anything since I was 12 years old and made aol spammers. What's the modern equivalent to vb6? I just want to quickly create some windows applications.

How long until a Linux destro is not shit?

>>58543621
Java. It's also the modern Cobol

>>58543621
Visual Basic still excists as VB.net, nothing stops you from using it. But if you want something more modern I'd suppose Python is what the cool kids are using these days. Maybe Java too, it's a bit more complicated but you can do pretty neat but simple stuff with JavaFX or Swing.

>>58543659
is there some kind of equivalent GUI creation tool for python that's comparable to vb6's?

what's the story on delphi?

Just switched to a new motherboard and CPU, and I can only sometimes boot to Windows or get this error.
The times when I can boot to the desktop, the screen freezes after I opened a few programs.
I already tried booting to safe mode and reinstall Nvidia drivers but still the same problem. Is my graphics card broken?

Still wondering if somebody can confirm this >>58542131

>>58543704
>Just switched to a new motherboard and CPU
You reinstalled windows after doing that, right?

>>58543715
Obviously, yes. I went ahead and plugged the HDMI to the Intel GPU and it boots fine to Windows.

>>58543704
>>58543759
What GPU? Might not be supported by OS/mobo

>>58543759
Bad card or some weird conflict with drivers and OS/mobo/CPU/chipset.

Chromium just installed itself on my computer while I was asleep. Is this some malware trick?

I'll keep it if it's legit

>>58544226
I don't believe that happened. It makes no sense.

Still get sudden drops (not in rapid succesion) from internet. Don't know what it could be. Download speed is down to ~200KB/s but my taksmanager says it's receiving 1.2-2MB/s.

when it comes to torrents, is it a good idea to block a country outright, so that snoopers at least cant see you from within your jurisdiction?

It's not a good idea because CDN's might break.

try modifying the shortcut you use, appending --disable-gpu to the end of the location, after the .exe, inside the double quotes.

or just run it from the run window with the parameter I mentioned.

could be it. good luck

Is there a way to force refresh rate into applications on Nvidia GPUs? Some of my vidya's going into fullscreen on x3 the refresh rate my monitor supports out of the blue, and I can't play anything.

>>58545000
Nvidia Inspector can at least do it globally. I had to do that to play FTL before an ingame option was added. Ran at thousands of frames per second and made my GPU whine.

>>58545071
I've read that online as well, but after running the program I didn't find any option to force refresh rates. Mind you give me a hand on that?

>>58543632
openSUSE Tumbleweed.

>>58545090

>>58545181
yeah, I know
I meant that I didn't know how to set refresh rate on that program

No answer last time, so Im asking again.
What is a good server setup I can buy for roughly 700-1k?

>>58544675
does the modified path in the shortcut looks like this?

ISP: 25 MB/s (download speed)
Router: 18 MB/s

Cable:

Close to router:

Not close to router (usual spot):
fast.com: 3.5
speedtest.net: 3.8

How can I get 18MB/s with cable? Can my download speed get better when I'm close the my router (2 meters or so) what about when I'm not? My router is from 2009 should get a new one?

What does it need to serve? I've never bought anything specifically for server use. Servers hardware is always free if you're doing things right. If there's no need for it to be dedicated hardware or onsite, and the needs are minimal, it's often cheaper and more reliable to rent a VPS than power a server at home.

Last time I played with that stuff, it could only run a chroot. Useful for using an old phone as a headless server, but not much else. It's probably better to find some native Android apps that do what you want.

Hey /g/ it's /k/, I need computer help

1. My firefox USED to not load new tabs until viewed and no longer does, how do I get this back? Ex: I open 3-4 youtube videos in new tabs, and they used to only load when I finally moved to the tab. Now they auto load, so I have to mute/pause the extra videos. It's more than just youtube, obviously, and I really miss this.

2. I think my GPU is failing, or I have a memory leak. If I were to load, lets say, 40 tabs in any browser (even if just still images) my comp starts getting weird and shows artifacts. The browser tabs will go straight black, god forbid I open any program it will take about 20 minutes to load because it seems like the system is really taxed. It doesn't ALWAYS do this, maybe once a week. But it's a very clear fuckup, and I have to reboot to fix. Everything loads slow, shows artifacts, and crashes often. Usually Firefox will show about 6gb ram used, of the 12gb ram I have. GPU is a little old, Radeon HD 7800 2gb

>>58546020
You can use this extension to disable autoloading of tabs.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/load-tab-on-select/
I've never used it, so I can't vouch for how well it works.

As for your second issue, first check your ram usage. If the memory usage does not look strange at all, then it probably is the gpu.

The third molar on my top teeth has come out and isn't impacted or anything, but is still erupting. Lately, though, it's causing me pain while I chew because there's no tooth at the bottom. If you have wisdom teeth, do you always have the top and bottom of that side?

>>58546387
Also, I'm afraid that it's starting to angle itself or something. These symptoms are fairly recent, as they occurred only two or three days ago.

>>58546387
Eventually wisdom teeth come out at top and bottom on both sides. But it's best to get them x-rayed at a dentist to check if they aren't growing sideways, which in that case they have to be cut out. (Isn't that bad as it sounds with anaesthasia.)

DDR4 I think is decently new but I can see intel deprecating 1151 pretty soon, is that right?

None, because Discord is nonfree software.

The sky is the limit.

>>58546720
LGA 1151 will probably be replaced in a year or two, DDR4 will probably be common for 5-10.

I recently installed an SSD on my dads computer. It's an HP Compaq 4300 Small Form Factor. Problem is I loaded up Speccy an saw that the SSD is using SATA II transfer mode instead of a SATA 3 transfer mode. Is there anyway of changing this? I tried messing around in the BIOS but it seems pretty limited. Even the HDD that came with it was SATA3...so I don't think it would make sense for the Mobo to only have SATA 2 ports.

Any idea how to change transfer modes?

What does a data analyst exactly do, say how much a company earned or loss percentage wise and stuff like that? Is it a more math based position?

>>58547439
No both cables are Sata3. It says 6gb/s right on them. One SATA port is blue, one is white so I suspect one of them may be SATA 3, and the other SATA 2. But Both the HDD and SSD are using a SATA 2 transfer mode for some reason.

I'd hate to buy a TV and have Sony release its successor the next day. Around what time of the year will all of 2017's range be anounced?

>>58548892
If you can wait at all, you don't actually need a tv. Read some books, write some code, use that space for farts and crafts.

Every big tech place will always do that. They will always make something amazing the next few days, while tricking you into buying what you have right then in there. It's your common marketing trick ya know

I've got a bitcoin miner on my computer.

GPU usage is at 91% constantly. Turn off my internet, and it goes down to 0%.

I can't find any trace of a suspicious executable in task manager, process explorer or process hacker. Nothing that appears to be using an abnormal amount of GPU power. Have done multiple malware scans already to no avail. Have used rkill similarly to no avail.

How do I get rid of this thing?

Your download speed has a lot of variations that have nothing to do with your wiring/wifi or your ISP like the host you're downloading from. Are you sure taskman has it in MB/s and not Mb/s? 200-300 KB/s ~= 1.6-2.4 Mb/s. That's Bytes (8 bits) vs Bits (1 bit).

Reinstall windows

I use Windows 10 as my everyday OS. It seems like there has been a recent update that reverted some settings like Windows Firewall not allowing a program through I specifically set up rules for, and some fucky power settings changes (I run the OS on a SSD, so hibernate and sleep just slow me down). Has anybody else seen this behavior recently? What can I do to force windows 10 to preserve my settings?

Yes. You just disable the router function on one so it acts as an Access Point/client to the other. If you use both of them as full fledged routers, you will have two separate networks and the 2nd router will have more latency/worse nat type.

If you have a huge boner for AMD or you would consider buying an $800+ processor. But CPUs aren't something you generally wait on, and you'll have to wait even longer if you don't want to be stuck with the unintended consequences of a big shakeup in architecture.

>>58549426
My rule of thumb is to replace it when my Internet badnwidth reaches 50% of the router's theoretical maximum throughput, which has happened. Sooner if you transfer lots of stuff locally.

It won't do anything to most desktop drives when powered off. Some laptop drives can be more vulnerable. There's a bit of distance between the platter and magnet. If it's powered on, stuff can go wrong mechanically. Place a hard drive magnet over the motor and it will click and fail to spin up.

>>58550382
>Why is the result to the billionth decimal place?
It's probably a floating point precision error. The data type you're using doesn't have sufficient precision to distinguish between 110.00000000000001 and 110.00000000000000. Switch from float to double if you haven't already. If that doesn't work for you, consider using fixed point arithmetic.

>What's the easiest way of reducing it to 2 DM?
That depends on the language. You'll probably want it to keep that precision for future calculations, but format it to 2 decimal places for output. It looks like you're using Java, so the java.text package with
>NumberFormat formatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
should format a string for you that looks like money.

don't disable it entirely, but you could reduce it to something low such as 256M if you don't ever run low on free ram and would rather save the disk space
i'm not sure about current versions of windows, but in older ones at least, some things might act up if you disable the page file completely

No, shut up. Precisions are the best, Latitudes are good, Inspirons are shit, XPS is consumer shit but good. Of course, there's differing levels of quality in each of those lines - several Latitudes are on the same level of quality as the Inspiron. Don't ask me which ones, though. Their model numbers make no sense.

Also, Lenovo and Asus are shit-tier. The former moreso than the latter, who makes (made?) a good cheap Chromebook.

No matter what you try to get, don't go HP. Chromebooks > Streams, Latitudes/Precisions > Probooks, and try not to buy dogshit.

Currently, though, Dell seems to be the best laptop manufacturer. Even the Inspirons BTFO everything else at the same price level.

running win10, alienware 15 R2, updated all drivers yesterday and both my GPU and HDD keep overheating. this is the second time this error has happened but my computers been seizing up and shutting down for months while I've been trying to figure out what the fuck is going on. sensors read an avg GPU temp of around 120-130F with no programs/games open except for chrome to google these error msgs. Closing chrome has no effect on the temperature. I can't even open the Intel HD graphics control panel and I have to manually turn the fans on myself otherwise this thing will just heat up until the drive fails. I can't wrap my head around it.

So whats normal for GPU temperatures anyways? I have no frame of reference for whats abnormal v what I should be aiming for.

The only thing I can think of in relation to the HDD is that it has to be close to the GPU and somehow they're both heating each other up unchecked because of whatevers stopping the fans from automatically turning on. Could it be some kind of connection issue between the hardware and the mobo?

I mean its a gaming laptop, so I expected some kind of heat issue but not to the point of drive failure.

Anything under 50°C is OK, 55° More or less but its still correct.

Is it easy to dual boot loonix? Whats the distro all the cool kids use nowadays?

The cool kids use Arch or Gentoo, but Ubuntu's a good starter if you don't care about botnet.

Put all my photos from my iphone to my mac a few months back, I now have a new phone and when I looked for the images all are gone until 2014.
What do I do?

>>58552876
my problem is this >>58552665. and i corrected myself, it doesn't say "disabled". it just says "not supported".

>>58552861
i'm not certain it's gotten anything from EZTV, i enabled it because it was there and i had no reason not to
not supporting search doesn't mean it wont work, just that it might only be able to see the latest torrents (which works fine when you're getting new releases)

>>58552876
i also called it "HDD" because speed fan is identifying one of the items overheating as "HDD".

>>58552876
>Change fan Idle settings.
I don't know shit about fans other than "Want them working", so could you elaborate a bit?

>Anything under 70°C is fine.
In general or just idling?
Because when I'm not running anything or working on anything it tends to sit between 40-50, but when playing games it gets up to 80-90, which always seemed bad.
It doesn't help that I always get inconsistent answers on good temps.

>Which GPU you bought?
AMD Radeon R7 360. I was too broke for anything nicer but my old one died and this one seemed like an affordable upgrade.

>>58552922
>R7 360
Anon if you can return it and get a RX 460(Also a low end $90 GPU but recent enough to run most stuff in high settings).

That is a really oudated GPU and not worth its price this days.

By any chance you only have one exhaust fan?

>>58552891
One of the drivers you installed(Highly probably the GPU one) fucked up stuff, that is why you usually dont update them if they are working correctly.

>I can't even open the Intel HD graphics control panel
Did you disable the intel IGPU?

just ran crystaldisk. what the fuck?

>>58552933
>Anon if you can return it and get a RX 460
I'll see what I can do. Gotta remember where I got the damn thing but replacing a graphics card without some kind of backup is always such a pain.

>By any chance you only have one exhaust fan?
How do I check? Again I don't know shit about fans. I'm not well-versed in the hardware side of computers.

>>58552955
>working correctly
...they're obviously not. i updated to try to fix the already existing issues.

>>58553004
make and model specs usually contain hardware information like that.

>>58553004
I mean, your case has only one fan in the back?

>>58553030
Yeah. One on the front, one on the back.

>>58552883
Ubuntu. Some versions contain free/libre software that does some Amazon stuff but can be easily disabled.

Don't bother with dual booting in 2017. Just put it in a virtual machine.

This is the issue I'm having.

Both of these programs are fresh installs so there's no way someone else hasn't run into the same problem.

>>58553041
Is your case or motherboard dusty?

Also R7 and R9 GPUs were a joke back then, literally called housefires, when AMD GPUs werent a option of how bad they were.
RX Series are really good though.

Drivers should have the option to change how the fan works.

>>58553064
Install CCCP or KCP.

>>58553007
Your problem is definitely driver related, there is not a lot you can do other than reinstall or install a older/newer version and hope everything works fine.

>>58553075
>Install CCCP or KCP

I installed MPC as part of CCCP so that's definitely not the issue. I'll give KCP a try though.

>>58553075
I hope you're right. I wanted to try to re-install the older version of the original driver after I updated the BIOS but I was worried because the original issue could've been corrupted drivers and wouldn't re-installing yet ANOTHER one in there mess it up even more? Or does it replace/repair the files instead?

I guess I have no choice at this point.

>>58553065
>Is your case or motherboard dusty?
It was cleaned recently, though there are still some spots that I can't get completely clean without dismantling the whole damn thing, simply because the computer itself I've had since 2011.

>Also R7 and R9 GPUs were a joke back then, literally called housefires, when AMD GPUs werent a option of how bad they were.
Fuck me why do I never hear about this shit beforehand. I'm still broke and I don't want to think about what a pain it'll be trying to replace this thing. I have a Square Trade plan but I don't think they'll refund me, only replace it. Guess I'm out 100 bucks next chance I get.

>Drivers should have the option to change how the fan works.
I wouldn't know what to change it to, though.
Can I just use Speedfan? I've used that for checking temps for years now, and it seems to have the ability to mess with fan settings.

guys I was just playing cod on steam and some guy got really mad and said he was going to hack me..

how do I defend myself?

>>58553116
>Fuck me why do I never hear about this shit beforehand.
Because they never were popular, also that Nvidia 700-900 series were really good didn't help.

My linux computer suddenly doesn't boot, but I can boot into a live image and the files are still there. How do I proceed?

Okay, so I've been reporting the pedo threads/posts in TV and now I'm stuck with the

You have to wait a while before reporting another post.

for like 5 minutes now.
Is this global or just me? I'm not banned, obviously because I can still post like this one.
What the fuck happened?

>>58553244
This happens to everybody. Stop reporting shit so often and the timer will actually count down.

>>58553279
What the fuck is wrong with gook moot?!
>no active channel to contact mods
>super slow janitors/mods
>cant report
jesus fucking christ i want white moot back

>>58553289
You just reported about 50 threads/posts under one hour.

Anti-spam shit.

Under moot it was 75 or so.

>>58553111
So it gave me the option for a "clean install" and the temps back down to 32F and holding. For now. Hopefully it fixes the original error message, "hard drive not installed" but I just don't know. I'll probably be back here tomorrow asking the same dumb questions but thank you guys for helping. Feels like I finally got some traction.

>>58553303
>I already reported 50 posts/threads in just a single board
>it's still up

>>58553308
No problem.

Usually new GPU drivers fuck shit up.

I'm running Linux Mint (Mate), and the system keyboard shortcuts work properly. Compiz keyboard shortcuts are NOT functioning, and I wish to use the Grid plug-in to snap my windows without using my wretched trackpad. Guide me towards a fix?

Ok, so the obvious things to look for is number of devices on your wireless network, what kind of gateway/router you're using (if you're using the wireless on a gateway provided by your ISP, you might as well be using dialup if you have more than like 4 devices, so get a WAP or a router if that's the case), what standard you're using and what frequency it's on (5ghz is supported by both 802.11ac and n, but doesn't travel through/around obstructions well), what your wireless card is in your device, how far away from the AP you are, etc.

Then, once you've eliminated all of that and interference from overlapping channels (try plugged in as a half-splitting method), you can go ahead and check splitters and cable (if you're using copper) to the drop. Once all that is ruled out, your ISP won't do shit until you complain for a bit about their cables on the street because they'll send a tech to measure the signal inside your house only and conclude that it's your wiring without taking power checks disconnected with a terminator first to measure attenuation in the inside line.

>>58553438
Gnome is one of the best. I bet you'll eventually regret moving to anything else, other than maybe Unity.

>>58552776
Does your PC have the video card drivers installed? It might be defaulting to onboard ports if there are any, though that usually only happens with older motherboards with shitty BIOS.

If I don't do low level J2EE stuff and mostly use frameworks such as Spring, Struts, etc to create webapps, can I consider myself as a J2EE developer or has at least J2EE experience?

How the fuck do I block ads in iOS 10? Shit sucks, and neither firefox nor chrome support extensions

HELP

just accidentally used
sudo rm /var/ww/html *
thinking that i was cleaning out my apache server folder

sadly the space before the * meant it instead emptied my main home folder

what do I use to recover the lost files?

please, any help would be great

Two questions
1. Is it at all possible to run the audio from my ps4 and pc through the same headset? I like to trophy grind and if I could listen to a podcast through the same headset I use to play the game, that would make it heaps better.
2. I have a wireless headset that also has a 9mm jack. It has a microphone. Can I use the headset microphone to chat on PS4? It doesn't seem to detect it because it's wireless, but I'm sure there will be a dongle that can do it for me.
