How can i make money over the internet?

I literally need to make only 10$ per day, is it possible?

I can't program but i have time and a fast internet connection.
In the last thread someone suggested me to try to resell hosting servers but is there anything else?

welcome to 2017. Maybe FF uses less, but It will be slower.

What's the best and easiest way to use an LG Flatron W2243S monitor on newer computers? Getting a new computer soon and considering opting for a mobo with only HDMI and Display Port instead of one with DVI and HDMI, since both VGA and DVI are on their way out. I'm guessing I will need an active adapter for that, any recommended ones?

Are the sensors on gaming mice bad for your eyes? mine has adjustable weights and I was fiddling with them and my eyes are sore. Did I damage them?

>>60072627
Probably not as bad as staring at a monitor for 16 hours a day

>>60072624
So you're futureproofing your mobo but using a VGA monitor?

>>60072647

That's not a lot.

>>60072624
Get something with the ports you need (DVI <--> HDmi adapters work well though

Active adapters is a pain.

>>60072627
You'll be fine.

>>60072627
It needs to be a Class 2 laser device to damage your eyes, and most mice are either Class 1 or not laser at all (LEDs), so I wouldn't worry that much. It's likely you just cause mild irritation like when you stare at electric light for too long.

Okay. The website claims it is "optical" but there's no light at all. Is there such a thing as invisible light for sensors?

I am going to be getting a modern monitor eventually, yes. But I would like to use this one until I can afford the new one. Right now I have to use an old laptop and it's not an enjoyable experience.

>>60072693
>Get something with the ports you need (DVI <--> HDmi adapters work well though
Hmm, okay. I'll consider that. It's just that all of the top tier mobos on Logical Increments did away with the DVI port and I'm not sure if even the ones with DVI actually support DVI-A/DVI-I and not just DVI-D (which would put me into having to use an adapter again, apparently). I'll research some more, but I wish I could definitely determine if this Flatron can actually output digital (it comes with a VGA cable). Perhaps there is and I'm just ignorant about it, though.

>>60072727
Optical mice use LEDs and light detector sensors, so there's no laser involved at all. You're good.

>>60072745

What the fuck is going on with my computer? I would occasionally get this screen when I booted up my computer. All I would have to do is reboot and everything would be fine, performance in games and stuff wasn't even effected. So I took my GPU out for a few days and just used the integrated graphics, and this never happened, everything was fine. So I figured my GPU was dying, and got a GTX 1050 as a cheap replacement to hold me over until Volta comes out. But I just got this screen again on boot up with the 1050 installed. So it has to be my motherboard, right?

If I install whatsapp with a number different from my own, that nobody has but me, will the contacts of my phone receive a notification that I have that number?

I mean, I plan to install it (for the first time) with a number that nobody knows, intentionally to use it with some specific people.

Will all the others on my contact list get notified somehow that I am using this number and be able to contact me, or as long as they don't have the number they won't be able to find me?

I actually tried swapping my PSU with a spare I had. It still happens. This is infuriating. I already had to RMA my motherboard once because it arrived dead (I live in Arizona and ordered it from Amazon around July... I think the heat from sitting in UPS's sorting facility (not air conditioned... I know because I applied for a job there) and on my door step for a few hours might have killed it).

Are there any processes in the background while you're playing? Web browsers such as Google Chome take up a large usage of memory.

Does it make sense to buy a 4k 15.6" laptop but use it at 1080p? 4k for a screen so small seems ridiculous so I want to use it at 1080p instead. What differences will a traditional 1080p screen have compared to 4k at 1080p? Which will have better quality or will it be same? I know that the 4k screen will drain more battery because it has 4 times the leds. Thanks.

After updating to the latest version of webm for retards, every video's aspect ratio is squished.

So how can I revert to an older version but not too older version without compiling because every time I try to compile something there's always a missing dependency error and it's a fucking headache. Preferably the last version.

I actually enabled high performance power settings and restarted and it's playing just fine now. Although now in-game water is invisible, which has never happened before. Interesting

a guy is selling a cheapish laptop with a decent gpu but the cpu is an a10 4600 which as far as i can see will cause a bottleneck with the 7970m gpu, ive looked at new games like dawn of war 3 and this cpu doesnt meet the min requirements

so question is does having a good gpu help offset a bottleneck from the cpu?

i havent been able to find something as good as youre describing for that price point

>>60075080
Because when it comes to games a good GPU is more important than a good CPU still you will notice problems with a weak one.

>>60075097
You never mentioned you were talking about AUD so i assumed USD.

Jesus, 3 bumps? Yes it uses more battery. Other than that you just have 4 pixels representing every one of your 1080p content, which can be a little harsh on the image because of the sharp edges.

Alright posting again about my new build; there is something seriously wrong here.
It was playing fine for a few hours in a game, then when I rebooted it immediately played at like -5 fps (one frame each 5 seconds). I alt-tabbed out of the game but EVERYTHING was lagging hard, very hard to move the cursor. I checked task manager which showed that the RAM/CPU usage was low and temps are fine (highest 75 max for gpu).
I rebooted the computer and things seem back to normal now.
It just seems like after a few hours the computer has a minute-long session of 5 fps gameplay, but this is the first time it was this bad.

Or am I missing something? Afaik the cpu decodes the source file, passes it to the DAC as a digital signal and the DAC converts it to analog along with other analog stuff.

I've been using RSS, but that doesn't exactly scratch every itch.

A few questions

1. I have an M.2 SATA and a 1TB HDD. What exactly is RAID0 and what are the benefits?

2. When shopping for a mechanical keyboard, what are the differences between keys? I spend most of my time typing but I game every so often, which key-type is best for me?

3. Is there a site to browse mice by handsize? I have large palms and average fingers, and I'd like a nice mouse.

4. 34" 1080p @ 144hz or 25" 1440p@75hz?

>1. I have an M.2 SATA and a 1TB HDD. What exactly is RAID0 and what are the benefits?

Combining two similar drives together for double the theoretical performance of each drive, but also doubling (or a bit more) your risk of failing, since if either drive dies, everything's gone.

>2. When shopping for a mechanical keyboard, what are the differences between keys? I spend most of my time typing but I game every so often, which key-type is best for me?

>3. Is there a site to browse mice by handsize? I have large palms and average fingers, and I'd like a nice mouse.

No idea.

>4. 34" 1080p @ 144hz or 25" 1440p@75hz?

Neither. First is too big for it's resolution, second is too small.

Should I keep them separate? The M.2 is my boot/game drive and the HDD is my main storage drive that has a lot of pictures that I don't want to lose.

>>60078576
You can't do RAID sensibly with non-similar drives anyway.

a typical system is like this, with processes in [square brackets] and signal/data types in (parentheses);
>typical compressed file or network stream --(compressed data packets)--> [codec/decoder for that format] --(PCM samples/raw digital audio)--> [optional software manipulations, eq, soft volume, etc] --(PCM samples/raw digital audio)--> [DAC, converts PCM samples into an analog signal] --(line-level analog audio)--> [amplifier, takes line-level signal and boosts it to something powerful enough to drive your speakers] --(amplified analog audio)--> speakers

Damn how times change

I have a capture card. It worked fine for nearly a year. Then suddenly it started dropping frames all over the place.

The hard drive can't be the culprit; I RMAed it and got a new one. I don't think even the old one was broken, but I got a new drive regardless. I switched SATA cables recently, in case they were broken. The capture card itself isn't broken; I tried another capture device that showed the same stuttering. Re-installing Windows changed nothing. I tried different graphics cards and internal graphics as the source. I tried switching video players in case it was just playback that was fucked up. Tried different drivers for GPU as well as capture card. Tried disabling antivirus and every background program.

Anybody have another idea what it could be? At this point, I'm worried that my motherboard connectors (either SATA or PCIe) are fucked, but not sure how I could test it. I don't want to keep RMAing parts to see if something changes. I'm desperate at this point after three months of troubleshooting so I figured I'd just ask here.

Some sort of IC. does something with power regulation, maybe controls the others.

various discrete logic, capacitors, resistors, transistors and ICs.


the caps are necessary for the switching power supply, that steps down the voltage from the computer power supply to 1.2v or whatever the gpu needs at that time.

sounds more like you're moving into a rented room than going to school

So I'm trying to create training data for a neural network I'm working on.
I'm outputting a bunch of .png files to a folder, one for each sample. I'm making 1000000 samples, and each sample is 11x11 with 3 channels and 8 bits per channel. According to my napkin maths, this should use a maximum of 346mb (11*11*24*1000000/8/1024/1024). However, I'm only a quarter way through generating my data and the disk usage is already at 1.3gb. Is my maths wrong, or is my implementation somehow making the files bigger than they should be?

>>60081063
yea, that should be 346MiB, there's probably some overhead you aren't thinking about

>>60081139
oh, you're making them individual files?
modern filesystems use 4k or larger allocation units, so files are not stored on less than 4k, storing a ton of <4k files will blow out their size in filesystem overhead

Is going from 8g ram to 16 that big a deal? Worth 120$?

>>60081185
If and only if you use more than 8GB RAM.

>>60081178
That must be it. Guess I should learn LMDB.

>>60081185
Usually not, but it depends on how much ram you actually use. Which is a thing you can check btw

>>60081139
>>60081178
Also a file isnt just the data contained in it. there's headers, ends, size information and other metadata.

It's beyond me why you'd go into machine learning without knowing computing basics.

>>60081185
very much so, doubling the ram basically unlocks hidden potential. Think about with the n64. The double ram allowed many games to atcually run and increased heaps to higher definition / higher fps

>>60081243
the ram upgrade in the N64 only affected games that were explcitly made to use it, everything else ran no differently whatsoever
just having more ram does nothing, what matters is if you will use it

>>60081012
alright, I'll stick to tools that may be relevant to my course though.

>>60081289
of course optimisation makes a difference, but i mean if you game then most games use above 8gb these days

>>60081313
Not necessarily. The best advice for anyone considering upgrading their existing ram is to monitor their existing usage and make the call based on that.

>>60081313
i haven't played many new games, but i find it hard to believe they use >8G ram

>>60081313

>>60081346
this, if you're not running out of ram, you don't need more ram

I have an idea to create a Twitter chat bot that will tweet a trivia question (from a database of questions somewhere). When the correct answer is tweeted as a reply, then the bot responds with a "Correct!" and then tweets the next question from the database.

How do you define a correct answer? If the answer is "Hamlet", and someone tweets "Well, it's not Hamlet", how would you best parse that to capture all sentences like that? What about grammatically incorrect answers, will you try to parse and accept that? That's a nightmare!

Capitalization is the easiest thing to parse.

Just what I was looking for.

I'm somewhat new to sqlite... I had a sqlite database of 9 million URLs with a bunch of duplicates. Found a query on google to remove duplicates and ended up with 6,6 million rows. I also deleted columns I don't need.

The problem is, the sqlite file is exactly the same filesize as the backup from before the operations. I have closed and opened the manager several times and checked the filesize several ways to make sure there's no strange caching thing (windows 7).

What gives?

>>60082920

Learn C++ first. It's horrible and overcomplicated and you'll hate it forever but it's a good jumping off point for other languages, because it covers a lot of topics and a lot of other languages you learn will be easier and make more sense

>>60083035
By default sqlite leaves blank space where the deleted data was. The VACUUM command makes it rebuild the file to get rid of the wasted space. http://www.sqlite.org/lang_vacuum.html

Register randomwordsoft.com for 10 bucks, set up wordpress and woocommerce somewhere for $5 bucks a month, sell useful little programs for niche shit. 99% of people want to pay a few bucks to save hours of their time.

Fuck, I just realized we don't have IDs on this board.

Thanks a lot tho, buddy.

>>60083277
id's?

>>60083411
Thread-specific poster IDs like on /pol/ and a few other boards.

Not tech related but definitely small/stupid. My credit card works on steam but not on playasia. This happen to anyone else?

>>60083436
i haven't been to any boards that do that
sounds useful for filtering though

>>60071565
Im making a java app which im gonna use on my server sorting my Media. But since my server is headless i would like a web UI, like Plex for Plex Media server or Rutorrent for Rtorrent.

Where should i start to learn about this? Java have server/sockets but dunno if that is the right way to go.

Would prefer HTML5 since Im used to WPF and don't like Swing or JavaFX very much.

>>60083450
It's very useful, should be site wide. Wanted to give that poster some BTC but without IDs anyone could impersonate him.

>>60083472
just as a curiosity, what's the official purpose of them?
i mean, we have tripcodes for that purpose on any board, it looks like IDs are forced, so i guess there's some reason why intra-thread anonymity isn't allowed, but it's not obvious to me why

>>60071613
There are those pay per click sites, I made 20 dollars once but is boring as hell, surveys clicking grid to win points each click pays like .005 dollars or something like that. The one I remember clixsense but don't know if it's still active.

Good luck

Is this a good board if I want to overclock my RAM and my R7 1700?

I have a netgear router that's having a strange issue. Phones trying to connect to its wifi get stuck on obtaining IP address, once you reset the router the phones connect fine. Mostly happens when you leave the area of the wifi and then come back into it.

>>60083532
I was around when they implemented them (due to excessive samefagging iirc) and remember there was some ruckus over it. But I can't remember the reasons people opposed it. It's just useful and the ID doesn't follow you from thread to thread so it doesn't compromise anonymity.

With thread-specific IDs you're able to have a direct conversation with the same person no matter how busy or full of trolls the thread is.

>I can't program but i have time
Get Visual Studio 2015 community edition (free) and even a retard can learn to program. Whenever in doubt, google and you find people asking the questions you're wondering about and people answering them with code examples. You'll learn to make professional quality windows software in months.

>>60082988
I think Java is a good beginner language, and useful too.

Python is pretty easy to start making real world crap with though, it's good too.

I wouldn't bother with it. I had one with that resolution back in 2009 and it fit so little it was barely worthwhile. I stopped using it in 2012 when I got a Galaxy S3, which had higher resolution. Now I'm using a 300ppi Kobo for appropriately formatted books.

Unplug for at least a week then try again.

Engineers are smrt and make stuff to be resilient.

>>60083778
Let it dry, you might still be good to go. You can probably even fix it, if you get some pure alcohol now and spray your components with it. The alcohol evaporates and gets rid of the minerals contained in the water.

I've set up the SD card for the Raspberry and shit but having trouble connecting to it through link-local or shared connection.

There's an IP when I use ifconfig, but I can't connect to it with 'ssh [email protected]'. I get response from ping, but when I try to connect it says "connection refused".

What am I fucking up?

What's a good way to completely migrate from my shitty email address I made when I was 14 to my nice professional [email protected] email adress? The domain and email hosting (with cPanel and roundcube) is all set up.

>>60084178
ssh is disabled by default, enable it from rasbpi-config or whatever it's called.

>>60084084
But if you hate it so much why do you do it?

>>60084491
Go through all your accounts and change the email addresses?

You do have a password managers with all your accounts in there, right?

Wot will happen?

sudo rm -f /bin/sudo

>>60084483
>>60083879
Of course you subscribe to it. You install it and you receive updates. It's a free service provided to you and in exchange they make a bit of money of the percentage of the userbase that doesn't opt out of the various deals they get with SEs, etc.

>>60084563
you'll delete /bin/sudo

>>60084576
and how to fix that later on?

>>60084602
log into root, install sudo again.

>>60084563
sudo isn't even some critical component
you can quite easily use a system without ever installing sudo
it's just a convinience thing

>>60084565
You don't sign up and pay a monthly fee. That's the kind of "subscribing" that would impact it's legal status. If you're arguing it fits the general meaning of the word "subscribe", sure. But the marketing term doesn't apply.

Anon who asked the question here - for my purposes "service" isn't monetarily defined, it's just a distinction between services, goods, and social programs. The existence of a provider and it not being a one-off tangible object is really all it's asking about.

>>60084509
I'm using minibian because who needs bloat.

If it's disabled I guess I'll have to change/configure something by mounting the SD card on my laptop?

Why would the most essential feature be disabled anyway? Seems retarded to me lol.

>>60084788
Yeah, and that really doesn't get defined until you start asking people to pay for it. Software is weird that way. If you sell something on a CD, it's definitely a good. If you charge a recurring fee it's often considered a service. A browser, which is handed out for free and benefits it's creators in other ways, doesn't really qualify as either. That's legally anyway. There may be some other academic answer.

>>60084522
Yeah, I do. I just hoped there would be some super easy convenient way.

>>60084881
Pretty much. I can probably frame it as a core or supplementary offer without picking what it should be classified as in and of itself.

my exact model of 1080 is out of stock already, and i dont think they're making that model anymore. a newer version is available and it's a lot cheaper. im told that SLI will work with the same GPU model, even with different manufacturers and core clocks, my question is would it perform any better if the cards were identical?

>>60085265

>>60085289
Maybe slightly better. Buy SLI is a huge waste of money in any case.

I'm told there are decompilers, but the result will be ugly. Also, there are some ways to protect against decompilation.

>>60085421
Why not waste money on an Intel 8 core CPU or a Titan Xp?

Neither of them have particularly great price-to-performance ratio, but they do have *performance*, not a micro-stuttering shitty-scaling buggy mess that SLI continues to be

Follow up question to this:
Is Gmail's "Check mail from other accounts" thingy any good? It would be pretty cool to have everything (my old email, my new one, and my gmail) on there in one place, but I'm afraid it's some shitty hack.

I'm already botnetted because I use the Gmail app on my phone, so that's not too great of a concern. Alternatively, what's a good Android mail client?

Anyone here Matlab proficient? I'm trying to execute a command on a number of different variables (h1, h2, h3, ...) but I'm unsure how to format it. I have a string array that contains the name of the variable I want to run the code on, but I don't know how to use that as a variable name.

>>60086129
There's eval, which lets you run the command in a string. You could do some string concatenation, like so (pseudocode because I don't know matlab of the top of my head)

var = "x"
var = "f(" + var
var = var + ")"
eval(var)
