The metal part was probably torn out at some time. I wouldn't use what connector.

molex to sata connector is one of the low quality ones. It works, but you should get a quality one.

Reposting from previous thread

I have a P4 shitbox which started to restart randomly. Temps are OK, voltages are the following:

Vcore: 1.370
3.3v: 2.96-3.3 mostly stays under 3v
5v: 5.175
12v: 12.2-12.3V

Is it kill? If yes, can I get away with a $15-20 PSU since it's a legacy system?

From other thread:
Fans connect to Molex cable which can take connection from back and plug into stuff from front.
PSU has peripheral/molex plug which looks basically identical but doesn't plug into back of fan molex.
Wrong plug or shoddy build quality?

couldn't say, there's countless mostly-worthless generic PC clones with all kinds of beige cases
only certain kinds of things become valuable, simply being rare isn't enough, it has to also have some kind of nostalgic and/or historical significance to it

that said, nostalgia varies from person to person, even something generally considered uninteresting could be valuable to the right person

How the hell do I gain root access on Bluestacks?

In short, is an Interface in Java basically just an Abstract class that can't be instantiated?

>>58763661
If you type

java -version

into your terminal.

Which of these is it?

C:\Users\hal>java -version
java version "1.8.0_111"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_111-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.111-b14, mixed mode)

C:\Users\hal>https://docs(dot)oracle.com/javase/tutorial/jdbc/basics/gettingstarted.html#step9
'https:' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

If it's something like the latter, have you installed a jdk?
On ubuntu and similars it's

sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk -y

If you're on windows, go to oracle.com and find the jdk there.

That's the most obvious thing that can have gone wrong.

>>58763742
I have the 3 lines you have (with different versions).
I've put both jdk and sdk just to be sure already.

>>58763370

Is there a /g/uide for getting a technology-related job?

Like what certifications are good, what languages are good to know, and suggestions for building experience?

I have a degree already, in applied mathematics (useless by itself), so I'm looking at how to build on top of that.

>>58763736
No. It's not an abstract class. They serve two different purposes conceptually.

An interface is a contract. Everything that implements an interface must have these methods. We put no other restraints on your implementing class other than that these methods are there.

Think about Collection<T> for example.

An abstract class is basically saying that there is some framework for a proper object, but that you have to fill in the blanks. It puts your extending class in the inheritance hierarchy. It's a class that lacks some things to be complete.

They're therefore not the same, and the people who like one will generally not like the other. I'm more of an interface guy, but I use abstract classes from time to time when they make sense.

>>58763736
one is a "contract" the other is a "basis" for classes

>>58763765
Dude, I'm sorry, I meant:

C:\Users\hal>javac -version
'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Because javac is the compiler, and if you can call the compiler your development kit is installed properly.

java -version is just the runtime. It's for starting java programs, not making them.

>>58763798
It tells me :

javac 1.8.0_121

But only if I'm in the folder containing javac.

>>58763543
bumpo

>>58763833
That's the problem right there.
You haven't set up your path correctly.

> https://learn.yancyparedes.net/2012/03/setting-up-javac-command-on-windows-7/

Tells you how to do it on Windows 7.
Just google "set path for" + your OS and you'll be fine. You'll want to include the jdk bin folder (the one that has javac in it).

Telegram isn't working on my computer & my smartphone. It doesn't send messages and stay in Updating...

Is it the same for you guys ?

>>58763785
>>58763787
So an abstract class essentially states "we have these methods, use them if you want"
And an interface states "we have these methods and since you're using me you MUST implement them"?

>>58763661

I just recently got fiber internet; upgrading from 1mbps DSL.

it's a 50/50mbps plan, which is usually what I get. I have one wired PC, on which I usually get 45-65mbps upload and download, and my higher end wireless devices, like my phone and PS4.

My main PC, however, which is the left screenshot in my pic, is usually much slower, ranging from 12-30mbps download, but uploads usually around 30mbps. This is on wifi, and a wired connection is not feasable for me at the moment. The speed is so much lower than my phone, which is the right screenshot . These tests were done right after each other in the same location, about 10 inches apart. This is probably about 20-25 feet from the router, with a couple walls in between, but the speed is great on my phone.

What can I do to improve the speed on my PC? I am using an Asus wireless USB adapter (ASUS USB-N13). According to its product page it's supposed to be capable of 300mbps. My suspicion is that my wireless adapter just isn't performing as it should, and I'm thinking maybe I should buy a new wireless adapter. Does this seem like a reasonable theory, or is there anything else I should check first?

Also if anybody has any recommendations for adapters they would be much appreciated.

>just choose the specific storage medium USB flash drive at the time of install?
it will refuse usb drives normally, you need to install it without it knowing it's a usb drive
if you're using 7 or older, look up a guide, as there's more you'll need to do in addition

Looking for a recommendation.

I have a server with:
3x storage HDD's (8tb)
1x SSD for the OS

Proxmox VE is installed, and I'm running OpenMediaVault as a VM.

Now there's a list of software I'd like to have installed which all needs access to the HDD's

- Plex
- Deluge web client
- Sickbeard
- Zoneminder
- etc...

You get the point. So my question is, where do I install this software? On a separate VM, or do I install it on the OpenMediaVault VM?

Will several VM's having physical access to the hard drives at the same time cause problems?

When typedefining a struct - why declare a name pre- and post- declaration?

e.g This makes sense:

typedef struct

Declare struct containing stuff called stuffholder. Okay.
This confuses the shit out of me:

typedef struct stuffstruct
{
 int stuff
} stuffholder;

Intel's latest graphics driver is 15.36.33.4578 for haswell processors, but when I run the installer, it reports as 10.18.14.4578. Are they being obtuse with the numbering or is it not installing properly? I got the driver directly from intel, just to be clear.

>>58763655
>>58763686
That's a shitty way for them to do it. I bet they receive a huge kickback from that shop.

Anyway, here's my thoughts.
* It looks like the RAM can be upgraded but I'm not sure about the SSD. They don't specify its interface so it might be soldered.
* If it is soldered, you'll have to go for the higher end one because 256GiB is not going to be enough for your sole drive.
* If it's a regular SATA or m.2 drive and you don't want 4G, I think it would be okay to go with the cheaper one and upgrade later
* Are you happy with a 13" display? Will you be using an external monitor too?

>>58765922
I think I slowly start understanding you, are you looking for a loop or are you dealing with objects having children which have again n children etc?

if you have a simple one dimensional array then just for/foreach loop through them, you don't need a recursive function for that.

It's an integer.

            System.out.println(array[index]);
        }else{

            IterateRecursively(array, index+1);

can you edit the array? print first element, pop_front, call function again. Add check for null ect

What's buggy for you?

>>58766560
post her answer tomorrow, I'm curious about what the fuck she actually wants.

Here's a stupid question related to computer graphics and real life.
Why do shadows from the sun have a penumbra? If the sun is a directional light source then surely shadows should be perfectly sharp. Is it literally just that the sun is actually a sphere? I thought that it would be negligible at the distance we are from it.

>>58766740
based on the radius of the sun and it's distance from earth, you can calculate that the angle of the cone from a point on the surface to the sun is 1.67 degrees. That would mean you could expect to see a 4 cm penumbra at 10 metres from the occluder or a half metre penumbra at 100 metres from the occluder. So yes, it is literally just that the sun is a giant sphere light rather than a directional light.

>>58766678
Nothing really, I hear /g/ talk so much shit about it im wary about upgrading but if you say it's running fine then ok, gonna update now.

>>58765826
Why don't you just remove the element from the array before you pass it to the next iteration? Something like

void func(array) {
if(array.length > 0) {
print(array[0]);
func(Arrays.copyOfRange(array, 1, array.length));
}
}

>>58765822
The Gandalf's disks you linked have been around for some time and are about up there with Hiren's boot CD in terms of trustworthiness, so feel free to use them for repairs. WinPE is great for that, and it really should be suggested more often on this thread considering how capable it is at repairing windows and how many people come here with a busted computer and no knowledge of linux. However if you're looking to use it as an ongoing general purpose OS it's a very poor fit and won't allow you to install new software easily. What you would really want is a win-to-go setup, which is actually pretty easy to make these days

Im going to disable hyperthreading on my laptop to see if temps improve a bit, on the bios cpu setting tab I see 2 options:

>>58764615

>>58766952

The XMB ui was used in a bunch of sony product, not just ps3.

>>58767105
Which is the one that pretends I've got extra cores?

>>58767134
Neither of them do that, but you're thinking of hyperthreading.
With hyperthreading you actually do have the complete number of execution units, they just share cache memory.

So in Java event handling, are there three core components to it?
The event source
Event generated from the source
Even listener

What does each one do then?
So when a source (component) is triggered, what does it do? Instantiate an event?
And what does the listener do exactly? It takes the event but then what? They seem to be just interfaces with a few methods.

Does anyone know a program that records average CPU temperatures?
Cause no matter if I have 1.0 volt or 2.0. My cpu temps always hit 70 degrees, at some point. 2,0 volt = 72 degrees at load, but never higher.
1.1 volt? 68 degrees as highest temp.

I have one of those retarded and comfy 32gb eMMC disk Lenovo "chromebooks" and it keeps going from 12 gb free to 10, 9, then back to 12, and stuff.

Pls stop downloading updates windows, it's annoying.

There's the crux, I don't know and neither does the person who actually owns it. I can't tell the specific model of laptop since it's a slim lenovo with no identifiers besides the generic brand line so I can't just look it up.

Oh and I tried to just wipe it, both reset options (complete and keep files options) fail with non descript errors, and it won't let me install on top of it nor will it let me just install on top of the windows partition because it bitches about it being gpt formatted (which points to it having been a windows 8 machine that was upgraded to 10 I think?).

What I mean to say is PDF pages should be navigable. Panning and zooming on any given page should be smooth-ish with touch gestures as with any $99 Android phone. Some lag is acceptable given processor constrains.

Obviously it will look like shit but on the most recent Kindles with button-based interfaces PDFs were unusable. The 4 direction "joystick" button thing was used for panning the granularity of motion could not be controlled so zooming didn't really work.

>>58768410
Lower power usage/better efficiency was one of the big improvements to the post ivy processors. However their smaller die size makes them somewhat shittier overclockers. Mostly there come with progressively better iGPUs a little better performance per clock.

You put the part of the program you'd want to repeat within some kind of loop.

Set the condition to break out of the loop (or just break;), return from main()

>>58768559
Isn't secure boot controlled from the UEFI or BIOS? You should be able to get in there and switch it off.

If you can't, try getting some live boot-capable Linux distro with Gparted on it and put it on a bootable flash drive using LiLi or Unetbootin. After booting, you can use Gparted to diagnose your faulty hard drive and possibly recover it there isn't any physical damage to it. But I guess secure boot might not allow it.

So I upgraded my CPU from a FX-6300 to a FX-8320 and my performance has actually been reduced. What will happen is the CPU will heat up above 60 degrees C and throttle itself from 3.4 GHz to 1.4 GHz until it reaches a lower temperature.

My cooler is just a run of the mill 90mm fan. I don't understand how anyone can use this CPU if a normal cooler isn't adequate to manage heat build up. I even deactivated 2 cores to see if that would prevent heat build up, but it had no effect. Is there any way to manage the heat within BIOS? Otherwise I'll just use my old CPU.

Understand I got this CPU for free, so I don't particularity care to upgrade the cooler to something like a water cooler for just 20% more performance.

Why does Firefox play some mp4s just fine, but others will either be "corrupt"(but play fine when downloaded) or plays audio with a white screen(also fine when downloaded)? Am I missing something?

>>58768688
I must not be doing something right. If I do this

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main (){
int n;
char choice;
do{
cout<<"what is n"<<endl;
cin>>n;
while (n<10){
    n++;
    cout<<n<<endl;
}
}
while (choice=='y'||choice=='Y');
cout<<"Start again?"<<endl;
cin>>choice;
} 

, the process terminates if I type any key.

you read a char fro mstdin and put it in an int?

and choice is probably not going to be 'y' or 'Y' 2/256 of the time.

>>58770394

Maybe I should switch to a sentence or phrase then, instead of my current 16-character random password made out of all the available options in the password generator.

When you declare a variable 'choice' or 'thing' or whatever you just get a space of memory but it doesn't get reset so whatever was there before is still there.

dual booting arch and win7. If i put win 7 on ssd and arch on a partition on internal hdd will it work? I don't want to partition ssd but my hdd is like 2tb so i can dedicate 500gb to arch and leave the rest partitioned for gaymans with win7, right?

>>58771363

Yes but when you enter a while loop the condition gets evaluated and if it doesn't hold the loop exits. Since you didn't declare the value of choice is just contained the value it had last been set to by some other function. You can see this by declaring an printing a variable without setting it to anything. Something like

char some_variable;
cout<<some_variable<<endl;

some_variable = 'y'
cout<<some_variable<<endl;

And see how they differ
