How much power does a sys_fan header output?

Trying to connect an H100i v2 to the PWM fan header on an enthoo evolv, the pump/fan power itself wont fit on the fan header like all the other builds Ive done with headers.

Apparently need to figure out a different header for the AIO power.

My retarded tech illiterate sister got one of those encryption ransom """"FBI"""" viruses. I decided to format the C drive from gparted to teach her a lesson, and because the shithead who made the virus doesn't deserve a cent. I didn't touch the boot partition, should I also format that? Is it possible for the virus to fuck up future windows installs?

no harm in just wiping everything and then reinstalling.

>>58878595
Yes, if you have an adapter that will end with aux, you just plug it in to the line in jack and tell windows to "listen to this device".

I do this with a surface pro 4 so I can have streams and whatnot in the background during benching or w/e, audio is perfectly synced.

Hey /g/ I was wondering if buying a Moto E2 LTE is worth it, I got mugged my moto g 1st gen last monday and I'm phoneless. I dont really do much on it besides basic social apps, music on headphones and youtube. Is it worth buying for $50 brand new with a 32gb microsd bundled? Would it be much of a downgrade? I really don't feel like spending anything over $70 for anything

i guess, check your motherboard manual

>>58879963
Are you sure your originals are not corrupted?
Do the checksums of the files on your SD card differ from the checksums of your originals?

To get some speed, I could consider a card with UHS and a USB3 adapter.

Maybe something like:

Checking on my wifi driver it says the driver is there, my firmware is N/A.
If i dual boot on windows the card works fine, here on debian internet stop working every 10-15 mins.
I have tried a lot of solutions googling etc.
I was wondering if there is some kind of "check or install for missing firmware" tu put on the cli or if any of you had this problem.

Thanks, I already passed on that page but i will try more stuff from it.

I have the Intel Corporation DX58SO (J1PR) motherboard currently and an i7 920 in it.
I was wondering today, why the hell does this board support DDR3 1600 when none of the processors that the board supports has a memory controller capable of that speed?
And if there is a 1366 chip that supports that frequency, which one is it?

Can anybody explain to me or point to a source about what an invalid misc is? Talking about wifi stuff.

if all i have are various random programs to test things, do i stand any chance of getting a dev job?

>>58881184
An invalid MAC address you mean? Depends on the context.

>>58881546
Nah, basically running iwconfig among the infos i get there is a "Invalid misc".
It's more than 0 and my wifi is having problems so i think it might be related to that.

Can I use internal graphics and GPU graphics at the same time?

Like having a VGA from the board with IG and HDMI from the card as two monitors

>>58881869

I want to have another OS on my laptop, which should allow me only one thing: writing. Nothing else. The reason should be clear – I just don't want to get distracted.

How can I go about this efficiently?

>>58882026
So you want a glorified typewriter?

I could help you steer in the right direction.

Few questions.
>Are you comfortable with text editor or do you require a full blown word processor?
>What about network connectivity?
Do you need a GUI network manager so you can switch wlan networks on the go or are you fine with configuring it once and forgetting about it (like on a desktop)
>How do you want to export your files?
Are you going to print them, copy to another device or what?
>Are you comfortable with the command line.

>>58882026
>>58882063
Oh and the most importantly, if the answer to the first questions is "text editor", are you familiar with Emacs?

>>58882026
You could set up any Linux distro without an X environment and just write in a text editor from the command line.

If you need windows and a word processor, install a WM/DE, get LibreOffice, set up your system and environment how you like it, and then just uninstall any packages that might be sources of distraction.

Or start practicing meditation.

>>58878624
if you get that virus again, follow the steps.

It won't help with the encryption ransomware.
It encrypts all personal files with an unobtainable decryption key, so you're just wasting time trying to put a system back to life with all your files gone.

Just reinstall the system

Computer won't power on.

Its my little brothers 'gaming' pc so it has those neon like LEDs at the front.

When I press the power button the front 'neon' LEDs flash once, Nothing else is getting power, no fans not the HDD; nothing.

Any tips? Is the PSU? I also already checked with another power cable; same thing.

>>58878433
I think it depends a lot on your preferences. Been using a G700 for years (later G700s when that one broke, same mouse basically but different software and some extra decals on the back) and think it can't be beat in the wired/wireless hybrid niche. Tons of programmable buttons makes your life much easier once you get used to giving them useful functions for the programs you use, also super easy to plug/unplug as needed assuming you're sitting at a desk.

Though if you want to use it exclusively wirelessly the short battery life might become annoying. I usually just unplug it when I'm doing gaming or other tasks requiring rapid mouse movement where the friction of the cord might be annoying.

>>58882258
>When I press the power button the front 'neon' LEDs flash one.
It could be everything including the motherboard.

If the motherboard's dead it probably took the CPU and ram with itself.

Unplug everything from the motherboard but the CPU and start troubleshooting.

>>58882258
Even the PSU fan isn't spinning? Would assume it is the PSU in that case.

>>58882063
Thanks for your reply.

>So you want a glorified typewriter?
Yes. A typewriter that can save files.
>Are you comfortable with text editor or do you require a full blown word processor?
The only thing I need is something to type. Maybe the ability to write in italic type could come in handy.
I don't know about Emacs. I've used Linux only once for about two weeks.
>What about network connectivity?
Do I really need Internet, if I just want to write? I don't need to switch anything, I guess.
>How do you want to export your files?
Probably on a stick. Or to the other partition if that is possible.
>Are you comfortable with the command line.
No. You see I am not very experienced… But it can't be too hard, to get what I want, right? But Linux sounds right for this. With Windows there are always things, you can't control.

What the hell is C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\drivers\mcaudrv.sys and why did Malwarebytes pick it up as a PUP? There is also an _x64 version.

/g/, i have a really old computer.
Won't upgrade till next year,
but need a RAM upgrade now and want to move to
64bit Windows 7 (am running a 32bit system now).

It has a
• ABIT IP35V board, which still works miraculously.
• Intel Core 2 Duo E6750

The ABIT board has:
• 4x 240-pin DIMM slots support
maximum memory capacity up to 8GB.
• Supports Dual Channel DDR2
1066/800/667 Un-buffered Non-ECC
memory.

The question:
Will i loose anything by getting 2x 4GB RAM cards and putting them into two slots,
instead of going 4x 2GB RAM cards into all 4 slots?
Can one 240-pin DIMM slot hold out one 4GB RAM card?

I was asking about Emacs because it would be the tool I'd use if I was tasked with creating an environment you asked for.

https://youtu.be/FtieBc3KptU
I know it's an hour long lecture but It's a great insight into what Emacs can offer to someone who doesn't come from technical field at all.


>No. You see I am not very experienced… But it can't be too hard, to get what I want, right?
Exactly. The setup you want would not require any advanced unix knowledge beyond the setup.
Once your finish setting it up, it's done.

As a starter you can read http://www.howardism.org/Technical/Emacs/new-window-manager.html

Just follow the steps described.
>You get Ubuntu LTS server edition (server bit is important, you obviously don't want a full blown desktop environment)
>install xinit
>install emacs
>configure emacs
>write

Now with emacs it's a bit of a rabbit hole.
There are package managers, various modes/extensions/plugins and shitton of configurability.
You can even write your shit in LaTeX and have emacs export it to .pdf

As for transferring data from one machine to another all you have to do is write an fstab entry so your system mounts a plugged USB drive automatically and just copy files with the cp command (or Emacs dired mode which is a file manager)

My Oneplus X has been buggy lately. Apps won't load and sometimes the entire phone needs to be rebooted for things to work.

I'm a little stumped on this one.
Hard drive died so I got a new one and installed Win 7. Previously had Win 10 on the old one.

After a couple days, I noticed that my computer would just randomly start doing the USB disconnect/reconnect bloops like 5 or 6 times every now and then. I figured I had a dying phone charger cord, but it kept happening after I got a new one.

It was just a little annoying at first, but then the bloops kept happening more frequently, and now every 10 or so bloop cycles, my computer will disable half of my usb devices at random.

The only constant is that it always kills my "usb sound card" (long story, but I need it) and my game controller no matter what ports they are plugged into.
I've read about stuff like USB power saving mode and toggled those all to never shut off, but it didn't seem to help.

I'm guessing its either something with the shitty sound card thing or something got fucked with my drivers, but I have no clue what I'm doing.

Shits driving me insane. Please help.

What's the best way to clean my headphone pads? Can I just detach them, soak them in water with some detergent, squeeze out, and let sit for a day or so and be good as new?

>>58885293
If your headphones aren't shit they should be fairly easy to take out, logically you should be able to wash them with soapy water and be done with it, but shit happens, maybe the materials won't react good to water, can't comment on that

>>58885321

I've got a Lian Li PC-09 and its drive bay is the shittiest piece of crap to annoy me in a long time

It's SO loud, the vibrations from my WD Black (an admittedly loud HDD to begin with) resonating through the case along with the fan whir getting carried throughout, too, well, it's driving me insane; you can hear in the adjacent rooms to mine and if you're downstairs it sounds like fucking gunfire if the HDD is seeking

Are there any less obvious home remedies I can try? I've worked up from putting duct tape to stop metal/metal contact, which I then tried again with some rubber; I've swapped what slot the HDD is in until there was no swapping left to try; I got some better rubber-bits for the screws and so on. Nothing worked, nada, nowt, zilch

I'd really not like to suspend the HDD with elastic as I'd like it to remain hard mounted and it wouldn't solve the problem anyway (fans are an issue, too); if it was less than 30 days I'd be refunding the shit out of this case, never blow cash on "something pretty", guys, I've learnt the £400 down the shitter hard way

ok guys so omegle has a shit bot detection system
basically after a certain amount of chats in a certain time frame, it will detect you as a bot and make you solve a captcha after each chat
the problem is 75% of users are horny dudes who will disconnect on you in 2 seconds, so you inevitably have to start solving captchas even if you're just a regular user
which makes the site unusable because now you have to solve a captcha every 2 seconds
how would one get around this?

I don't really understand the problem as you've modified with pretty much every noise dampening thing like rubber pieces and those meme fan holders, it just seems that either your HDD or the fans are to blame for the sound so big it shouldn't even happen when all the components would be laid out on a wooden desk

I'm using a 950 Pro, too

I got a 4TB 128MB cache WD Black knowing it would be silly loud for a HDD, however, I really wanted mad space, but I took another HDD from one of my friends PCs that I knew to be quiet and had the same issue

It's the fucking case (specifically the HDD bay as without it screwed in I can barely tell the PC is switched on via sound), though I saw nothing in reviews, so maybe I got a dud build, but it's literally tear inducing how stressed it's making me

Help :(

>>58886513
I got stupidly priced Noctua Industrials for all ten fans, but it's only due to the HDD bay that those two make sound

>>58886821
just bolt the HDD to the case itself, I don't know, how can the fucking bays actually amplify the sound, especially for paying that fuckhueg amount for a meme case

Aren't they the ones that are a lot louder than the standard noctua ones but have the "improved reliability" marketing gimmick?

I never did this, compile a package from source, what do I need to do to insure maximum compatibility?

Also what does mean "compile for your platform"? Platform as in CPU architecture? OS? Linux Distribution?

They're quiet as fuck, i m o

It's not fan noise, it's vibration, serious bass sounding vibration, mostly caused by the HDD, but those two fans (also on the HDD bay) don't help matters

Hello /g/,

Is there a way to easily export to text files wav regions that can be later imported in different wav files? I can do that file by file with iZotope RX (Sound Forge in pic-related does not export precise enough files), but I find doing it manually to be a waste of time and I wish to automate it.
Also, to clarify things, I do not wish to export the audio within the regions, but the markers themselves in order to place them on other files.

How do I make the steam window flash when I receive a message on Debian 8 with i3? I've checked the settings of course and it is set to flash but it doesn't. Any suggestions?

I get a high pitched noise from my speakers even though they're hooked up via an audio interface

I thought it was the power supply so I tried a different one but it's still making the noise.

It's not as pronounced in CSGO but it's definitely there. In all high demand games, I get a good amount of FPS but choppy gameplay (maybe because it's maintaining a high fps but dropped like 30-40 frames every few seconds)

Not sure if it goes here, but...

I'm trying to find an internship as a software developer. I'm going to a career expo and I've heard they often conduct interviews on the spot, and have been told by a friend that they ask for work samples as well. I've never had a job in this field before so I only have a few academic things and a couple things I did for fun, mostly games.

My question is: what kind of a code sample should I include? I know the best one would obviously be from a language that the company wants it's workers to know but I'm not about to go write 50 different pieces of code in 50 different languages for each company. My school never taught anyone c++ and I went out of my way to teach it to myself, so I figured I should use that language to let them know I went the extra mile, etc.

The most complex/impressive code I've written off the top of my head is the homing system for bullets in a game I'm working on for fun. So my question is this: is code from an amateur game too... unprofessional to be used as a work sample? If so, what kind of code should I write for a sample?

Here is the code, by the way. If you think it can be formatted better or whatever let me know that as well. I sprinkled a liberal amount of comments for the purpose of the code being a sample.

        //store variables for enemy positional statuses. Find the nearest enemy as we loop through enemies.
        double enemyX;
        double enemyY;
        double enemyDistance = 11111;
        //we have a backup location for the bullet to go to if there are no enemies. If it is 11111, then no enemy was found.
        for(i=enemyList.begin(); i!=enemyList.end(); i++)
        {
            if ((*i)->health > 0 && (*i)->active == true)
            {
                //uses deltas and hypotenuse to get information about position
                const double bufferX = (*i)->shipSprite.getPosition().x - h->bullet.getPosition().x;
                const double bufferY = (*i)->shipSprite.getPosition().y - h->bullet.getPosition().y;

When you're just checking which enemy is closest, you don't really need to compute the sqrt, you can just use the squared distance.
Then if you really need the distance, compute it once after you've determined the final enemy.

You just failed the interview. You might want to brush up on your sixth grade geometry.

>>58890260
>std::hypot
Oh, I see.
>you can just use the squared distance.
But calculating the hypot is how I determined distance in the first place. So how are you suggesting I get distance if not by hypot?
>Then if you really need the distance
Of course I need distance. I need distance with each enemy, in order to figure out which one is closest. Your post is confusing.

Is there any way to import my uTorrent 2.2.1 torrents to qBittorrent?

And why the fuck there are two threads?

>>58890342
set your download folder and .torrent folder then just set autoload folder to that in qBit (make sure you turn off autostart DL) then verify everything

>>58890329
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2. (where c is the hypotenuse.)
So c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2).
However, it's not necessary to perform this sqrt call. You can just sort them based on the squared distance (a^2 + b^2, or in your case bufferX*bufferX + bufferY*bufferY) to save some unnecessary computation.
It's a very common method that you should know about.

What happens when I try to access an element with an index larger than the array in C?
I'm getting large numbers instead of an error. Would I be correct in saying that it's accessing something on the stack and that C doesn't automatically check these things for you?

Correct

ok, all it shows is "stalled", it is verifying?

>>58890557
i dont know. turn off old client.

where exactly is your download folder and where exactly is your folder with the .torrent files?
did you set new client download folder to the same and the autoload torrent file folder to the right folder?

>>58890629

Have you considered looking for a used machine?
For the same price you're granted to get a similarly speccd machine (if not better) and have enough money to get accessories for it like more memory, additional battery to swap and an SSD.

Don't overpay.

I flashed Ressurection Remix on my s5 and put doze on, black theme, turn brightness all the way down. It says I have 13hrs of battery life left from 98%.

So on both my desktop and laptop (both running Windows 7, same iso was used for installation for them), I have this kind of bizarre issue that seems to only affect MS Paint. It frequently freezes up from doing any kind of action including typing anything in the save dialog box, or simply opening it up. But it's not as if it's completely frozen. If I right click outside of the window it unfreezes and I can continue my work. It's a bit of a pain in the ass but it's not as if the program is unusable. I think this was happening with Wordpad too but I can't remember and I'm too tired to check.

As I haven't had any issues with other programs I frequently use I thought it was only affect Paint, but now I've discovered that I'm having the same problem elsewhere. I had to use paint.net for some basic image editing and it was as if it froze after every single action instead of just randomly, and in order for it to work I had to right click outside of the window. Every single damn time.

This is so frustrating. Does anyone know why this is happening? I know reinstalling Windows doesn't fix it as I had the same issue before reinstalling. But what's weird is that I've used this same iso for who knows how many different installs over the years and it has never happened before these last three installs. What could it be? Photoshop/GIMP/SAI/pretty much any other photo and illustration program works fine, but not Paint and paint.net. I know I can use those programs instead, but sometimes I just need to use something lightweight for small, unimportant tasks.

on shitty "web hosts", the only filesystem access you have is via FTP
some "web apps" will have you specify an FTP server as at least an alternative for certain file operations
perhaps this client has only used shitty, ftp-only hosts, and is confused by the idea of having full shell access

you can run any web app without an ftp server, ftp is only used by cheap hosts to give restricted filesystem access to accounts that have no shell access

also, what are you doing supporting web "devs" if you don't know this?
