how did atom.io / mpv.io hide github from their urls

I have these outlets in my room that spark whenever I plug something in. I'm deeply afraid of being electrocuted. If I wore rubber gloves, could I plug something in without the fear of being shocked?

Are password managers actually safer than saving passwords in my browser? Why?
If so, what is a good one?

>>59279083
No need for the gloves, just test the outlet with a fork.

Me and some friends just got into a new house and we cannot get cables from the router yo the PCs, so we're thinking on buying some of those PLCs to Connect all the computers to the net.

My questions are: Can we connect several PLCs le the same model in the same net? Like buying 5 times the same machine que Connect them all together (1 on the router and 4 on PCs)? Will we lose a lot of net quality or it's more a distance problem rather than The number of PLCs?

Are people from south more retarded than niggers? Honest question.

Why won't this script that inverts the colors of an image work?

def invert_pix(pixel):
    pixel_copy = list(pixel)
    for ind in range(len(pixel)): 
       pixel_copy[ind] = 255-pixel[ind]
    return tuple(pixel_copy)

im = Image.open('b.png')
print im
print im.size
nRows = im.size[0]
nCols = im.size[1]

for row in range(nRows):
    for col in range(nCols):
        print (invert_pix( im.getpixel((row,col)) ))
        im.putpixel( (row, col), invert_pix(im.getpixel((row, col)) ) )

im.getpixel( (100,100))

why do some hot tubs have pneumatic switches instead of electrical switches?

Just had a catastrophic meltdown on a windows partition. All my data on that partition (a cohabitant of my bar-none more used linux partition) is now unusable, resulting in IO errors.

First I thought it was a virus deleting or corrupting the filesystem as I was using it, but this seems fairly unlikely to me. The windows partition always behaved bizarrely but all I ever used the partition for was the occasional (few weeks a year) gaming.

It is a pirated copy of windows, but disk is also nearing around 5 years old with 18500 hours on it as per smart. The rest of the output doesn't really lead me to believe any massive failure is occuring though (as far as I decipher): https://ghostbin.com/paste/ee6y4

My question is: what's really more likely in this case? Should I believe that the drive is safe to use after a reformatting of the windows partition, should I overwrite it with zeros, should I assume it's a hardware failure and get a new disk? Was it some windows exploit?

I'm running badblocks on it now. Any info or direction is much appreciated

>>59281696
It's not worth powering a Pentium just for serving files to a single user. You can get an ARM SBC or something for less than the cost of powering it for a year or two. This is assuming you pay for electricity and don't have electric heating.

I do. I didn't lose anything of value except for some savegames and time downloading a few games.

I'm most concerned about the possibilities of an intruder; I regularly checked with Malwarebytes but the windows 7 version was pirated and had not been updated, though no ports were forwarded. But it just seemed to me like the most dramatic hardware failure on software I've ever seen. I'm sure badblocks will tell a lot, but I'd definitely like to be able to categorically cofirm or deny the possibility of intruston

Is video decoding done in real time? If it is why does it has to be? It's not interactive like video games so why not just decode the frames before then store them into a buffer (VRAM becoming bigger over the years) long before displaying them on screen? apply audio delay to be in sync if need be. This would be more efficient for processors that don't have enough power or discrete instructions to decode HEVC for instance.
But again I don't fucking know how video decoding works.

Can ISP's be cunts and cut off your internet connection, and hope you're either not using it at the time, or are a pussy to complain? Maybe if the network is too loaded or something?

> like to be able to categorically cofirm or deny the possibility of intruston

That's not a thing. You can't prove a negative. Even if you find out your drive is dying, your pirated windows could still be silently keylogging you or running a botnet. If you install untrusted software, there's no way to trust your system.

http://pastebin.com/smjvLZN4

That said, it would be odd behavior for malware to randomly fuck over your whole install for no particular reason. There's nothing for them to get out of that. You should run a S.M.A.R.T. check with crystaldiskinfo or linux equivalent to confirm if your disk is dying

in my country (France) we had an issue with an ISP (free). People complained that they had a shitty connexion. Specifically when it came to google services (youtube).

The differences between using internet at day or past 11 was obvious so an organism for protecting consumers rights investigated. During the months they investigated there were no more issues. When the investigation was over they started to limit the bandwidth again.


ISP can do whatever they want it will be hard to prove they are screwing up their customers

I want to install an os onto a hard drive thats got nothing on it while keeping my windows running, is it possible?

i do a lot of video encoding and audio work, so im really interested in doing a ryzen build atm.

what i dont understand though is the actual point of the 3 different skus at the moment. Can someone explain to me what the point is of the 1800x, 1700x & 1700 is? They all seem to overlap really heavily and the 1700 seems like a slightly worse version of the 1800X that can reach the same speeds when overclocked. If thats true, what is the point of getting the 1800X over the 1700?

>>59282357
Its basically the same chip with different binning.
A 1700 might be able to do 1800X speeds but its not a guarantee, and an 1800X could probably go higher.

>>59281842
that makes no sense, how would it be faster unless you decode all frames before displaying them?
if that is what you're saying, then;
a. it will be slower than playing back normally if you could play back normally
b. decoded video is huge, you think vram is big? a single 1080p frame is 3MiB uncompressed, a 2 hour movie has 172800 frames (24fps), which makes it over 500GiB of data

>>59283137
to be clear on how much slower, one way or another, the frames must be decoded to be viewed, so if your machine wasn't fast enough to decode the 2 hour movie in real time, that means it can't decode the movie in 2 hours.. so you're going to be spending over 2 hours to generate 500GiB of raw video

at least that will use no cpu, though you'd need a fast enough storage media to play it back (~72MiB/s)

>>59283137
>unless you decode all frames before displaying them?
Yeah, that's what i'm saying.
>500GiB
Would it still be huge is storage space if you flushed the frames already viewed and loaded only like 5 minutes of decoded frames in advance?

>>59283212
>if you flushed the frames already viewed
which will be none of them if you decode all frames ahead of displaying them
>loaded only like 5 minutes of decoded frames in advance?
you could decode 5 minutes, play those, then decode more, but again, you're looking at >5 minutes of pausing for every 5 minutes of playback on a machine too slow to play it back normally

>>59282657
>>59280801

>>59283249
you can also do it through a large fifo, decoding and playing at the same time, as normal, just with a huge buffer

A server is a computer dedicated to serving the requests of other computers over a network.

Asked a few days ago and didn't get a response, figure I'll try again:

Does anyone know of a web browser that is compatible with JDownloader's browser loop and is capable of (through some combination of command line arguments, settings, extensions, etc) starting up in the background without grabbing focus from what I'm currently doing? It doesn't necessarily have to be completely minimized, as long as it doesn't jump in front of what I'm currently doing.

I ask because recently started using 9KW captcha service and while it's hella convenient to be able to fill out captchas in a big block at the start rather than being interrupted every five minutes to fill out another, it kind of dampens my joy that I still get interrupted by my browser popping up on top of what I was doing and closing again. (Especially if what I was doing was some full-screen thing) Mitigated for some sites by disabling browser loop entirely but some hosts don't like that.

>>59283346
What would be the best way of testing PHP locally then?

>>59284090
run a web server locally (why do people keep thinking servers need to be some standalone machine anywhere but where they live?)

>>59284070
Oh also should mention that I've already tried Firefox and Chrome and can pretty safely rule those out. Also start /min and minimized shortcuts were among the first things I tried with no luck. I was able to, through a complex series of batch files editing other batch files and routing through the task scheduler, get it to start completely invisible this way and redirect to an arbitrary site (verified when I killed the task and opened it again) but this was not compatible with whatever JDownloader does with the browser loop argument you give it.

Also should mention that starting in foreground and then minimizing is not good enough since it will still steal focus for a moment. I have found extensions that do this but doesn't really help me (it already closes itself after the browser loop runs so it doesn't make a difference anyway)

>>59284110

I'm trying to control the case fans with Speedfan. After setting everything to manual mode I can control the speed of the rear fan but the front one doesn't do anything. The rear fan is plugged into the sysfan 1 port on the motherboard, while the front fan is pluggd to sysfan 3. Why doesn't speedfan detect sysfan 3?

Obviously I considered pluggin the front fan to sysfan 2 but the port's a bit too far away on the motherboard and the cable isn't long enough

When using dust filters on intakes, make sure that you have more intakes than exhausts. This is called positive pressure and helps prevent dust. Reason being that if more air is coming in the intakes than is going out, the pressure inside the case will be higher than ambient, and air will try to escape at any little crack or vent. Escaping air blows dust away. Negative pressure - more exhausts than intakes - draws air in through every little crack and vent, and dust along with it.

Also you might want to mount your PSU to draw air from inside the case, instead of from below. A lot of cases have poor filters for the PSU, if they have any at all. This is especially true if you want to put your PC on a carpeted floor.

What's the best way to initially set up a database for a website? I assume that manually creating it in phpmyadmin is a bad idea in case the database needs to be recreated later on. Should I just have a loose php script on the server that, when run, will recreate the database? Or maybe check if the database exists when you visit the website and it isn't set up?

>>59286538

You can build it by hand in phpMyAdmin, and then dump the whole database to a bunch of SQL queries.

>>59286598
So once I've dumped them, what do I do with them? This is my first time working on a website for a client, normally I'd just have a script that I'd keep locally on my machine, but that sounds like a bad idea for them to have to contact me if maintenance is needed.

what exactly is a unit test ?

>>59286651
It would just be a file that you would then import. If you can use command line you can do the same thing with mysqldump for example.

>>59286718

Then you could pick one of the other options like this.
> Should I just have a loose php script on the server that, when run, will recreate the database? Or maybe check if the database exists when you visit the website and it isn't set up?
Your PHP scrips will generally do the second thing anyway.

I'm just saying that you can largely design your database in phpMyAdmin and still get along all right because you can dump to plain SQL afterwards.

PHP, Ruby on Rails, Node.js, Django/Python all do the same thing.
You go to the URL, the server executes some script, and it gives you something back which is usually a HTML page.
Whichever one you use is mostly a matter of preference. Some languages make it easier to write code to do a certain thing but in general you can do everything with any one of them.

On the client, you have to use HTML+CSS+JS.

I mean that's pretty much just something an ate and puked out, repeatedly, before being packaged in a nice little jar. Isn't this a double standard?

because your stuff gets shipped between their warehouses and you only get a message once it leaves it on the way to you.
so if you order something and your closest warehouse doesn't have it they'll ship it from one that has it to that one and then to you.
so it takes a while for them to start shipping it to you.

reference cards are the ones directly from amd/nvidia.
the other brands may use different PCB layouts, coolers and clocks to boost efficiency.
So some cards are already slightly overclocked, some run more silent and some just look silly or on some you just get a longer warranty.

In gaming? as long you are playing only in 1080p it wont matter.
3D modelling? enough to be noticeable.

Ask /3/ about it.

I shoot with a DSLR and I want to be able to able to do some simple editing, maybe some color grading. Basic stuff.

Will leaving my PS4 controller plugged into my computer and powered off drain its battery?

Where does Elementary OS fall on this?

>>59292092
No.

If your computer is able to power a device while off it will charge.
If no, then nothing will happen.

USB A only can charge devices.

Can someone explain what gnu hurd is? I know it replaces Linux, but what benefits does it have other than cutting Linus out of the ecosystem? Why is it so mythical?

How can software that's free like America not have to be free like beer? How can you charge money for software when the source code is out there for anyone to compile? Why do freetards think this is a viable business model for all software?

My headset doesn't sound that loud when connected to my PC (I have it on the motherboard audio port)
But when it is connected to my phone its MUCH louder.

Why can that be?

>>59292553
Audio drivers.

Ah. What should I do?

I have done multiple installs before and it sounds the same as it does now. So don't know.

If you want to fetch html from google searches many times in a python (or any other) script, should you wait between each one?
I mean could google (or any website, for that matter) consider it flooding?

>>59292674
What do

>>59291801
you can double click it and hit enter

>>59292719
Thanks but you're telling me how to remove it for a single opened document. I'm asking for how to disable it forever, so that it never does this shit by deafult

>>59292703
if you're using all the volume your soundcard can provide then you're most likely listening way louder than you should. But anyway if you need more you can try buying a simple external soundcard. Look into that
I'd suggest learning to enjoy quieter volumes tho

>>59292779
Thanks. I do actually enjoy the quieter volumes but sometimes I like to blast music. Mostly had me curious because the phone was much louder.

>>59292748
I know man, sorry. I'm not sure you can override that behaviour. Photoshop and Adobe in general have those little things that are incredible.
I just pointed out a way of doing it a bit faster

>>59292808
yeah there a lot of factors going on around volume and sound quality. Which in the end translates into hearing differently using the same headphones.

Have you ever seen something so beautiful it literally blew your mind?

What is all this? I'm trying to pirate a movie.

>>59292886
They also sound great on the phone. (There is more bass, there is barely any on the PC)
I also noticed that front audio was a bit louder then the motherboard ports. Not much though.

>>59292911
Bluray?

>>59292929
It says BRRip DVDr

>>59292911
The movie. It's basically how it is stored on disk, with chapters, menus and everything

>>59292972
Open the folder with MPC "Open Bluray folder" option, its the movie.

well you have shit like redhat where the software is free but they sell you techsupport FOR the software

but yeah the endgoal is gay space communism, FOSS doesnt really mesh with selling software

Coolio, thanks anons.

>>59292918
are you sure you don't have some kind of sound enhancer thing going on in the phone? It could be a setting in your music program or sometimes even the OS.

>>59293049
I use Poweramp on the phone, and I am not completely sure to be honest. Looked on Poweramp and the only thing I can find that I have selected that could possibly change volume is the Direct Volume Control option.

>>59293101
>I use Poweramp on the phone
That's it. Poweramp enables the equaliser by default. I used to use it.
Look for the equaliser in your music player on your PC. It'll probably have a preset called bass and treble boost or something like that, which is the default on Poweramp if I remember correctly. Try a few presets though, you might find one that you like more. If your software doesn't have an equaliser, Foobar2000 is a great choice.

>>59293162
I use MPC-HC as my audio player. Don't seem to find a setting, maybe it doesn't have it? Foobar might be a good option for me.

Hey /g/
I have an alcatel one touch. My phone has been wonky lately. For some reason when I open an app, it wont let me tap anything and then when I close it and open it again it works. It does this on almost every app. Any idea why?

>>59293217
I googled it and apparently MPC-HC doesn't have a built in equaliser but there are addons you can use. You could also have a look in your audio driver control panel, some of them have it built in.

>>59293279
Factory reset?

>>59293295
that's the next thing I'm gonna do but only as a last resort.

>>59293291
My audio driver control panel is extremely basic, doesn't have one. I guess I'll give Foobar a try. Thanks a lot man! I appreciate it so much.

Can you save things onto the same USB drive you boot live Linux from?

I have little experience with Linux. Basically I want to rescue some files from a partly dead windows tablet from a live Ubuntu USB.

Problem is the tablet only has one usb slot so I can't just put another drive in there to save things. Only reason I'm asking is because I tried it myself and I can't find a test file I saved.

>>59293627
yes. I've done it several times. What you want to do is have a 2nd drive to install it on then so you can boot it directly to it.

Start with something easy like mint or ubuntu. Don't go balls deep till you have AT LEAST basic knowledge. Linux isn't complicated it's just not used AS much as windows and mac
