Is it okay to use abstract classes in Java when nothing will be inheriting it?

What are general uses for abstract classes?

when do you buy new parts for your pc?

its like a race you cant win

you will either pay too much or become outdated

>>59119428
when do you buy a new car?

>>59119411
Why would you use an abstract class if nothing will be inheriting it? That makes it literally impossible to do anything with.

Abstract classes are for when you need to define not only an interface, but also variables.

I'm having trouble installing Xubuntu. Yes I know that means I should an hero or at least just stop using computers, but let's look past that.

I've overwritten an installation of debian with Xubuntu, and the issue is that for whatever reason the Ubuntu installer isn't overwriting the grub from the debian installer. On top of that, the version of debian I installed was 32 bit (accident) and the version of Ubuntu I'm installing is 64 bit.

I've read several things online saying to go into Ubuntu live mode and install boot repair, but now whenever I try to boot into the USB it gets stuck at "Assuming Drive Cache Write Through", so I'm trying to do everything through grub rescue.

Please help me, I am but a lowly idiot.

>>59119452

i cant stand buying any used things, it literally disgusts me that other people have used it

I want to make a class that governs movement in a board game and it was never going to need to be instantiated, so I was wondering if I could make it abstract.

Shall I just make a normal class and make everything in it static?

>>59119560
Why would you need a class with only static methods? Why not make it a regular class with regular methods and instantiate it in the class(es) that need it, potentially passing it via constructor?

>>59119545

Just make it a regular object that you instantiate when needed (probably in the controller class or whatever). You should attempt to stay away from static as much as possible.

>>59119684
Why? What are the benefits of instantiating that type of class, and what are the downsides of using static? Why should I refrain from using it?

>>59119702
Static methods can not be overwritten. If you make this movement class static, you will always be stuck with the same movement unless you rewrite the movement class.

If you make it non-static, and at some point you need a different form of movement, you can just subclass the movement class and overwrite that function.

On that note, why not add movement and combat capabilities to the classes that are going to be fighting and moving themselves?

You can pre-download maps if you don't want to use data. I think the only extra features are that gps can show where gas stations and restaurants are. You'd most likely need data on a phone.

>>59119746
Okay, thanks.
I was thinking I'd have separate classes which all dealt with their own major functions, but looking at it now it would make sense to have attack() and move() in the Character superclass.
What are general uses for static stuff then?

>>59119657
What OS?

>>59119835
Copy pasted from a stack overflow answer:

One rule-of-thumb: ask yourself "does it make sense to call this method, even if no Obj has been constructed yet?" If so, it should definitely be static.

So in a class Car you might have a method double convertMpgToKpl(double mpg) which would be static, because one might want to know what 35mpg converts to, even if nobody has ever built a Car. But void setMileage(double mpg) (which sets the efficiency of one particular Car) can't be static since it's inconceivable to call the method before any Car has been constructed.

After reading so many intel shills talking about how much useless is a CPU with more than 4 cores I was wondering something.

When I play a video game I'm often doing few other things at the same time like watching a video on a second screen, talking with friends on mumble, music, downloading something...

How much other programs would impact the performances in games (considering that nowadays we see a lot of games benefiting from more cores) ?

Anyone got an article talking about it ? Is it just insignificant ?

No, the Windows partition is fine. The only reason I'm hopping distros is because I messed up my network drivers on Debian and figured it would be easier just to install Xubuntu than try and fix the problem

With that filter in your screenshot you're essentially telling your "clumsy" application to force googles DNS server to send itself lagged packets which is impossible. If you want to send lagged packets from yourself to google you need to change the ip.src to your ip and the ip.dst to google. Also you have to assume that the delay will be higher than the value you've set according to the manual on the site.

How much thermal paste is sufficient for a CPU?

I was just running prime 95 on ultimate boot cd and the motherboard LED lit up indicating that the CPU was having a problem. I restarted the PC and a bios message came up saying something like "temperature error, cpu is too hot." My pc also emitted a burn smell.

Why does my Samsung Galaxy S2 take better pictures than my Samsung Galaxy S7?

The pictures of the S7 are clear and all, but they lack the magic and inspiration of the pictures from my S2. It also can't take good pictures of the sky, it makes everything too light and removes colour which sucks when the sky looks beautiful. And going into adjusting settings is annoying, and I still can't get it right.
Is there any clever way to make my S7 take better pictures? Maybe a camera app or something?

Port scanning, vuln scanning. Basically looking to see if there is any unpatched or vulnerable devices, and if there are known exploits for them.

If you're targeting a home connection, you're likely not going to find anything since almost all modems are also routers that do NAT, which is kind of like a one-way mirror. You can't see or contact computers behind the NAT without them talking out first.

>>59122363
Not him, I am not familiar with trackballs and have thusly never heard of that make or model of trackball.

Truly the actual answer would be Model M + Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 ("IME 3.0")? The 400dpi hard cap and the USB polling rate or something not being applicable for W8+ is of a similar fate of using Model M keys for shit like gaymen

>>59122365
Look up some online Control Systems engineering courses. They might not teach the Kalman filter specifically, but the application of signal processing to control systems.
From there, you can adapt what you know to applying a Kalman filter to your project.

There are also a lot of cheap displays that will work in the that macbook, but they look like shit, and will probably fail early.

>>59123399
No, it was like that because the components in the hard driver were larger and heavier.

Does Windows slow it's own startup when you don't activate it on time?

Why is it recommended that you install a Linux iso using a torrent? I have been trying to download one straight but keeps stopping after a bit.

>>59123781

Probably to keep bandwidth costs down for the distributor. Just download the iso over http if you're having issues with a torrent.

>>59123791
The opposite. I am having trouble with the http. This is a new device and I guess it's time to install a torrent client.

>>59123781
- torrents are transferred via a group of peers, reducing load on official servers and may be faster
- torrent clients verify each piece of data that is transferred, so you can be sure a completed download is not damaged

>>59124052
You cant

>>59124063
I just realized asking was stupid since they have different amounts of pins. Damn.

>>59123955
computationally it's pretty minimal nowadays, as far as modern home computers go, checksums are limited by IO speeds, not the cpu

the way torrents work is that you have the metadata (which is the contents of the .torrent file), which contains the files/folders "in" the torrent, along with checksums of every chunk of data
these chunks can be hashed and verified against the checksum in the metadata before being written out to disk
you can also use the .torrent file to verify the data manually, and re-download any failed chunks without needing to start from scratch

the reason http doesn't do this is because it doesn't have something comparable to the metadata, at least standard
sometimes files are provided with a separate checksum file (.sha1, .md5, etc) for users to manually check against

>Hardware-offloaded audio processing allows the main audio processing tasks to be performed outside the computer's main CPU.

>Audio processing can be very computationally intensive. So in many scenarios, it may be beneficial to allow a dedicated processor to take care of processing tasks like, for example, mixing, and applying effects. But Windows 7 and earlier versions of Windows did not provide support for hardware-offloaded audio processing.

>With Windows 8 and later operating systems, the audio driver model has been updated to provide support for hardware-offloaded audio processing, and the following sections provide information about how to develop an audio driver that can expose its ability to handle offloaded audio for processing.

np

in addition to the basics, some sound cards may also add additional "post process" effects like HRTF, reverb, etc which may or may not be done in hardware

you can do any of this stuff in software if you can spare a little cpu time though, allowing for the same results on any card

unless you're setting up a 20+ year old machine, don't get a card based on what fancy effects it can do

Other than that, you can't. It's not the controller latency, it's literally the TV taking ages to update the picture on the screen.

Shame on him. Thanks for helping though.

Minus archive how much data does 4chan keep live at any given time?

My icons keeps flickering like this when I open a folder or anything in the HDD. What gives?

Am learning to code by myself and though I'm still early on the road, I'd like to ask what are the procedures to create a program with a GUI.
Is writing a program with a GUI a different beast?

having the same problem as this guy when searching stuff on twitter. please help.

is there seriously no workaround?

Is it possible to make a server in a virtual box, so that other people could connect && work in it while you are doing stuff 'outside'?

This is my first time doing something like this, but I want to recompile a small program that uses libMagick++, in its header, it uses Magick++.h, but in my /usr/lib64/ I have libMagick.so.6 instead of libMagick.so.5.

How can I know what to use? Is it going to be in /usr/? The header file for the sixth version of libMagick?

You'd have to forward the ports from your host machine to the guest machine, but otherwise no reason you can't do it.

I formatted my hard drive and got an older version of windows 7.
Now my odd 1366x768 monitor that came with the prebuilt is incompatible and the one game I want to play won't run.
Please fucking spoonfeed me, I'm a retard and this took me all fucking day and for nothing now.
I already downloaded the drivers and clicked off "show only resolutions that are compatible" and it still hasn't shown up.
Is there no way to update Windows 7 without being blocked out for having a stolen copy? I feel like an update would fix all of this.

where they are and how to get them will depend on which distro you're using

for example, on arch, packages come with their development headers, where distros like debian prefer to ship them in separate packages

>>59126892
yep, in fact, it's very common to virtualize servers these days

how do i make /e/'s catalog not fucking worthless, i can't click fucking anything there right now cause no thumbnails, i hide the working thumbnails to show what i mean

>>59127161
desu the only reason i didn't crop only threads without thumbnails was to show the name of the board, which i cropped out here. disappointed in myself

>>59127115
I'm on slackware, weird though, it is in the same place as your directory, but when I placed

#include </usr/include/Magick++.h>

For some reason, it gives me this:

WacomIntuos4LED.cpp:12:35: fatal error: /usr/include/Magick++.h: No such file or directory

The thing is, it used to be #include <Magick++.h>, even that didn't work hmm.

>>59127177
maybe try adding;

-I "/usr/include/ImageMagick-6"

to your make arguments

>>59127223
(change it back to just "#include <Magick++.h>", since that's a relative path that clearly expects the include paths to cover where that file is)

>>59127244
>>59127223
Yeah nice, it kinda works now, but it won't complete, I edited the Makefile and saw the directory name with only ImageMagick excluding the -6 so I added it. Now I get this rip

g++ -o intuos4-led-check icon-library.o WacomIntuos4LED.o intuos4-led-check.o  -lusb-1.0 -lMagick++
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-slackware-linux/5.3.0/../../../../x86_64-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lMagick++
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:5: recipe for target 'intuos4-led-check' failed
make: *** [intuos4-led-check] Error 1

Should I just remove -lMagick++ from the Makefile?

what do you think about email provider Tutanota?

>>59127287
>tfw upgraded krita to 3.1.1 from pkgs.org and now it broke
REEEEEEEE

>>59127287
just going off a little research here

it seems "-lMagick++" tells the linker to look for "libMagick++.so" (or .a)

on my machine, i have "libMagick++-6.Q16HDRI.so", check what you have and see what happens

>>59127414

ls | grep -e "libMagick" | less

returns

libMagick++-6.Q16.so@
libMagick++-6.Q16.so.6@
libMagick++-6.Q16.so.6.0.0*
libMagick.so@
libMagick.so.5@
libMagickCore-6.Q16.so@
libMagickCore-6.Q16.so.2@
libMagickCore-6.Q16.so.2.0.0*
libMagickWand-6.Q16.so@
libMagickWand-6.Q16.so.2@
libMagickWand-6.Q16.so.2.0.0*

in /usr/lib64

do any windows 7 keygens actually work

>>59127458
so if the pattern i saw when looking it up proves true, try "-lMagick++-6.Q16" in place of "-lMagick++"
should be in the makefile as well

>>59126991
kek. If you'd just asked how to activate windows we would have told you daz loader. Updates dont fuck with it at all.

I don't leddit, but this page has some info I guess: https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/39qnll/guide_for_microsoft_windows_office_and_adobe/

>>59127464
Why would you use a keygen?

>>59127464
you don't need to use a key, just skip the key and automatic activation during setup and use removewat, dazloader, or microsoft toolkit to activate it or remove activation

>>59127473
Oh shit nice! It works! Thanks a lot wow, it feels pretty good, doing my first code rewrite and compile of another program.

Now time to figure out how to fucking fix Krita since it broke after I got this https://slackware.pkgs.org/14.2/ktown-x86_64/krita-3.1.1-x86_64-1alien.txz.html

When I installed slackware, it came with the 2.9 version, but now I get

krita: error while loading shared libraries: libkritaui.so.16: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

after I installed 3.1.1 from pkgs.org then removing it.

It might be a similar issue, but I don't know. I downloaded the source code and was planning on building it from source, but damn there is no guide for slackware and most packages aren't out there.

If you have no idea or have no time it's alright. I'll work on it later.

>>59127491
>Removewat
no

>>59127522
>after I installed 3.1.1 from pkgs.org then removing it.
so, you had 2.9, then installed 3.1.1 (you did remove 2.9 first, right?), then removed 3.1.1, is this right?

i'd remove anything related to krita and install it again to start with

>>59127541
worksforme

>>59127578
If you use something besides daz you're doing it wrong

>>59127578
Lol, no I didn't remove 2.9. I don't know where to remove it from.

I know how to use removepkg, but I don't know how to remove preinstalled packages.

I'll look around
