Is there a good tutorial out there to learn how to do diagrammatic modeling in LaTeX?

Or should I just give up and use yed and import the diagram I make to LaTeX?

Is it worth it to also/instead learn how to make graphs and shit in LaTeX?

does the percentage you get in a single class affect your overall gpa

Say I get an A+ in the class but not 100% percent of the marks

would 3.9 be added to overall gpa or 4.0

I'm after a monitor that's 1440p, g-sync, and displays really nice colours. I watch a lot of Bluray rips and game, but I don't play FPS or online shooters.

Colour quality is important. I've been looking at some IPS displays that are 1440p, but there are huge numbers of complains about "light bleed" and shit like that.

Recommendations? I'm in Australia.

So I have something that's got me stumped.

My Internet, which normally runs at about ±900KB/s, enters on a copper phone line, into the house and into the modem/router combo box.


If one device is connected (as in my PC which is wired to the box), the data rate runs along steadily.


But as soon as another device connects to it, such as a phone over WiFi or another PC, the data rate collapses.

And I don't mean split evenly 50/50 between the PC and other devices.

The other devices aren't even down/uploading anything, and the data rate measured on my PC drops to 0~31KB/s.

I have changed the modem/router box out for a different model already, but the problem persists..


Any anons have any idea on what's going on?

So I've just put together a computer and installed Windows etc. The issue is that no matter what, I get "no signal" when the graphics card is connected, whether using the graphics card output or that of the onboard graphics. Onboard graphics work but only when there's no graphics card connected.

I've tried disabling and enabling PCIe graphics in the bios, disabled the iGPU on my processor both in the bios, and Intel Graphics within Windows to try and and force it to use the graphics card. I don't think it's a power thing as the LEDs on the card light up and the rest of the system is fine, given that I was able to install and boot into Windows just fine - as long as the graphics card wasn't connected.

Does anyone have experience of a persistent issue like this? At this point I'm guessing that I either have a dodgy graphics card or PCIe slot.

What's the fastest GPU that will saturate a PCIe Gen 3 1x slot without being bottlenecked?

nVidia's April Fools joke was a USB video card called GTX G Boost or something, and since USB3.1 gen 2 is equivalent to 1x PCIe 3.0, I'm curious how powerful such a meme card could really be. Especially since USB-C can theoretically deliver 100W.

You know how in Windows you can choose a file to display on the folder icon? Sometimes after a while of it working properly the folders icons will revert to the default view (displaying a couple of files from the content of the folder) after I move a file into the folder, undoing my setting basically. Does anyone know what that's about?

It happens with all the folders at the same in my pictures directory, each time I save a file in to one of the folders they revert to default one by one.

I have a game where a certain particle effect likes to lock the game up. Sometimes this will go so far as to cause my computer to bluescreen with DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION as the error message.

How would I go about finding out how this happens?

>>59697495
Something is causing your Kernel to lock up. Probably a device driver.
A watchdog is a timer which counts down to zero, but is reset every time the scheduler gets a chance to. If the watchdog hits zero, the system will halt, and either generate an error code (like bluescreening), or reset. The watchdog will hit zero when some high priority task (like a driver interrupt routine) takes longer than it is allowed to run for without finishing, which triggers the watchdog.

>>59697554
Huh. Thanks. How should I fix it? I don't seem to have any available driver updates.

Operating systems ship with what are called VESA compliant drivers which will give you a display output from any GPU, but don't provide acceleration. When you boot into safe mode, this VESA driver is what is loaded instead of the manufacturer's driver.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WHQL_Testing
WHQL is a Microsoft verified stable version of the driver. Not that it's 100% stable, but it's usually more stable than the non-WHQL versions.
AMD releases a WHQL version every few months, nVidia more often.

Hey thanks man much better now. ls 27 MB a normal value for this?

>>59698340
>By default on most programs, windows spawn at the same place they were when they were last closed.
this is typically handles by the application itself (as in, it remembers where it was when it was closed, and signals to the wm when opening where it should be placed)
if the application doesn't provide this information, then the wm picks a place (which is often just center or somewhere not covering existing windows)

>>59697994
not a solution to the window placement, but for moving windows without the titlebar, give AltDrag a try

>>59698384
>ls 27 MB a normal value for this?
probably, keep in mind that while your program does little, it still had to load up the python interpreter and pygame's mixer (which may have loaded additional dependencies)
interpreted languages aren't ideal for small programs, since the interpreter usually outweighs the program

It only bootloops when connected to the cord. When I leave it running on battery, it does not boot loop and stays in disk mode like normal.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

Double click the file.

>>59698837
first, minimize the size of the file;
- defragment it from in the guest (may help compression)
- zero free space (avoids storing data that is already considered deleted)
- compress the vm's disk(s) (effectiveness depends on the contents)

then encrypt it with gpg or 7z or whatever

>>59698933
what happens when you send a http header to something.com, your local DNS server directs you to an IP address that has registered that name to the IP.

The http header you send requests a specific site "something.com" which the receiving server will then route to where it's DNS lookup tells it where to go--which is I'm guessing another computer inside the network that shares the same external IP. There may be multiple domains registered to that IP address-- it's just the external face. but the response you get back depends on the address you give.

The pure IP address request you send to the server is probably just the default or not explicitly stated address where http requests go--it sends one back that redirects you to their domain name.

games don't need much bandwidth, it shouldn't even slow his uploads much

Upgrade your plan to something like 50/5 or 100/40.

And use QoS. Nothing else will help unless you can talk to him civilly and get him to cap his up/down speeds to allow a good 100kb/s upload/download overhead for regular browsing and gaman.

You realise that having slow speeds mean nothing to him if he is just torrenting, right? It will still chug along fine in the background. It is not like gaming where you are getting spikes of unplayability, chances are he would not even notice his speeds being shit.

he knows how to do that and there'll be consequences for me if i cut ihm off from the internet

how do i get him banned from trackers tho if i dont know which ones he uses? how cna i find them out? i can break into his PC easily and probably find out there in his browser history ro whatever

do i just report him for sharing torrents freely or something?

my brother is a spastic cunt that wont stop uploading and has no thoguht for anyone other than himself

Madvr will degrade the picture to make it """look better™""". It's basically like applying filters to images in GIMP.
It only works for upscaling, but since you have a 4k tv you'll be upscaling all the time.

My advice to you is just try it out. I did, and didn't care for it. The picture always looked worse than the (already shitty) source. But there are a lot of people who swear by it, so it's probably subjective anyway.

Also, you should check out MPC-BE. It's the best flavor of MPC.

a. In the gigabyte bios I set my i5 4690k's vcore to a permanent/constant 1.3. I set the CPU's clockspeed to 4.3Ghz. It has been running like this for 6 months.
Am I causing unnecessary damage? Is it safe to do this?

b. Is there a way to make the vcore more dynamic so it will lower when idling for example? I think there was an "automatic/dynamic" option I tried those 6 months ago but it ended up crashing my PC, so I just manually set it to 1.3.

>>59702093
no one?

>>59702567
yes, the higher the vcore the hotter the CPU runs at, that's why you generally try to go for the lowest value possible on which it runs stable.
I would not recommend just setting it to a random value and then going with it, always check the temperatures when doing your overclock benches.

Constant means constant, what you're looking for is offset mode, which the CPU can then lower the voltage and downclock properly when not in use.
If you keep crashing then your offset is too low.

Well fuck, your maximum autism gets in the way because of some line breaks? Instead of giving some good advice, you just shit up the board. So I have something that's got me stumped. My Internet, which normally runs at about ±900KB/s, enters on a copper phone line, into the house and into the modem/router combo box. If one device is connected (as in my PC which is wired to the box), the data rate runs along steadily. But as soon as another device connects to it, such as a phone over WiFi or another PC, the data rate collapses. And I don't mean split evenly 50/50 between the PC and other devices. The other devices aren't even down/uploading anything, and the data rate measured on my PC drops to 0~31KB/s. I have changed the modem/router box out for a different model already, but the problem persists. Any anons have any idea on what's going on? Because that's way easier to read than the original post right?

>>59703785
I don't know about the specifics of adaptive sharpen, or SSimSuperRes, but mpv disables scalers if it doesn't need to scale (technically it's a setting, but opengl-hq enables it). However, most video files will still need to scale the chroma (most files are YUV 420, instead of YUV 444), so cscale will be used most of the time. Only really autistic BD releases will have YUV 444 really.

Do you have those blue lines even bios? To me it looks like GPU is kill. At least I had similar issue with my GPU, won't boot to Windows with drivers installed, only safe mode worked thought I had blue lines on my display even in bios. GPU baking helped and card still works fine after that.

>>59704593
no, but you could make 3 cells where you input a value and a fourth one where you put in the sum, so say you have the value 3 in cells a1 b1 c1, in d4 its a1+b1+c1

>>59704593

try with that

Nah bios is working fine, I thought it was a driver problem but unistalling them solved nothing

So nobody knows? >>59700443

will ask on v or vg then

>>59704613
yes, but you need an activated license for it to work.

Why does it need to be macos? Why not some other UNIX-based os that isn't locked down?

Does your school operate on a percentage scale or a letter scale? If your GPA is given in %, then they input the %. If your GPA is given in letters or a 4.0 scale, then it's probably:
A+ 4.0
A 4.0
A - 3.7
B+ 3.3
B 3.0
B- 2.7
C+ 2.3
C 2.0
C- 1.7
D+ 1.3
D 1.0
F 0.0

I'm sure you could have looked this up. I hope you get a 3.9 instead of a 4.0 you lazy bastard.

macOS wasn't written for AMD, so unless you hack it together yourself, you're fucked.

After I install an Android app, can I delete the .apk file that I downloaded? Or do I need to keep it?

>>59704897

I put the following into two different cells:

=CELL("address")

=INDIRECT(CELL("address"))

If I select something it will return the value for the cell that has the INDIRECT cell (after updating with F9).

But I can't get a range of cells to output using the =CELL("address") one. It only has the last current selection instead of the entire group (selected with CTRL click) so not much I can do with it in a formula to sum a range of the selection.

Complete newbie to this shit.

though why you're trying to debug using console outputs instead of watches/breakpoints is beyond me.

second gen intel hd can support it

I'm trying to install Windows from a bootable USB key.

I get to the point where it says that the computer must restart to carry on.

When it doe, I just get a black screen with a ticking white mark.

My boot order has my HDD first, and when I try to boot from the USB key again the installation process just starts over.

Is my HDD fucked or something ?

No, I mean is it good for games? I'm having problems running it w/ the 7567. I'm considering switching to an 1080p display.

Why is it that when I download a video at 720p, the frame height is less than that? Like I downloaded The Magnificent Seven at 720p but the frame height is 540.

Is it possible to install virtualbox on a VPS ?

I need 6 characters that are easy to hear and understand so I can have an email address to say over the phone. Tired of having to repeat myself or go through the "a as in Apple" routine. Any ideas?

Reinstalled my nvidia drivers and audio is now pitch perfect.

>>59705492
no usually because the processor you're getting won't have virtualization support

What's the easiest way to take a webm file on my computer, and get it to embed and play in a discord chat without uploading to YouTube. I've tried numerous webm sharing sites like webmshare.com, but they always just embed it with an external link, and not a play button.

I have a device that plugs into an AC adapter

I have an inspec adapter but it's from a country where input is 100V and I need it to work on 120V

It's a small electronic needing 12V 400mA

Is it safe to use the 100V adapter into a 120V socket for this instance? I don't care too much if the ac adapter life is shortened

I also have a 14V 400mA adapter rated for input of 120V with matching polarity

What is the best option to use out of these?

How do you know it was 720p?
Torrent site people put up smaller sized videos just so they can get more people to download their link. Not sure what they get out of it.

>>59705784
Because they maintained the frame width, which was 1280

Debian stopped working properly after getting some packages for steam.
The screen turned black with a blinking white line at the right-top corner.
I did a reboot and now the UI of debian won't display.
I opened the terminal with ctrl+alt+f1 and there it worked but just for the terminal.
When I try to go back at the normal interface (ctrl+alt+f7) it doesn't change from the tty1.
I checked the memory and the files and it was all the same.
My distro version is 3.16.0-4amd64.
So the question is: How do I fix this?

>>59705376
720 pixels would be including the black bars, because of the aspect ratio.

Checking the width, like you did, is the best way to see if the resolution is correct. It should be 1280 for 720p and 1920 for 1080p.
