/sqt/ - Stupid questions thread

So here is my question and waiting for any help :-(

So NAS or server?
NAS would be 660€ and a server like 900€ or more.

I can't connect to my server running mpd using MPDroid. These are the iptables rules I have:

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8000 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 8000 -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 6600 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 6600 -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

Using telnet I get the following:
On port 6600 I get connection refused.
On port 8000 I am connected before the connection is abruptly closed by foreign host.

What am I missing?

How do I get my PS4 controller to work on win10 without having to have an external program running? I've done it before, just ran a dll or something and it worked.

What programming language(s) are used for quantum computing?

>>60109647
it's just so you can use either

the board has molex on it, if you don't have a spare molex on your supply, you can use the adapter to use use a sata power connector instead

>>60109666
yea, on the play store

>>60109606
>Difference between NAS and server
A server is like a normal PC, it runs an OS and can do anything a PC does.
Pre-built NAS are just hubs most of the times, some come with more features but they're pretty much dumbed down servers that cannot do anything else besides connecting your PC to the drives that you will use in the NAS.

>NAS would be 660€
You can find much cheaper ones, even below 150€ up to 4 bays, still, you could also use a cheap mobo and make a server with it, though that will require some extra component, more work and some expertise.

>>60109685
I am looking for a Spotify Premium .apk download for free

>>60109680
oh well, good to know, I wanted to get a couple of these boards but I don't have available sata ports so I'll be using them with molex cables.

>>60109695
the 660€ NAS would have 16TB already in two 8TB WD RED.

But yeah, then I'll try to get him to get a server wit ha cheap xeon or whatever so he can have some stuff on it.

>>60109704
so you don't want a legit one?

How do i hack someone's facebook acount?

'chmod 664' gives the user and group read/write while global read permission, right?

Yet when I mount through sshfs I can't see shit in a folder with those permissions unless I use 'chmod 774'.

What have I misunderstood?

>>60109743
you need execute rights on a directory in order to enter it

>>60109710
some anons use mini pcs like raspberry pi to create seedboxes/servers but honestly I find them a pain in the ass to configure since they require a lot of custom crap to run, even though they're cheap as shit compared to nas/server setups.

What's the difference between MircoSDHC and MicroSD? I've seen an old flip phone model that in the specs say MircoSDHC but when I searched for these cards online I kept bumping in normal MicroSD listings, are they the same?

>>60109758
I totally forgot about those. But these are weaker than most NAS with celeron, and low RAM. I guess that a mini PC with a mobile CPU would work, or maybe an all in one mother board.

>>60109726
Social engineering. You need to trick that person to give you their password. Doesn't have to be a Facebook password, most people use same password for multiple sites and thus you should be able to log into Facebook or email with it.

>>60109770
HC cards are faster and have more space IIRC. Normal SD cards can work if the device doesn't require that extra speed, but you might run into issues such as card not being fast enough to record video on.

Why do we need different programming languages?
How do you even create a program?
How does a program like Notepad++ know which language you're using?
How do you even go from a bunch of code to a program/online game/dildo simulator?

Basically, I'm a retard. Fix me pls.

>>60109863
completely different technology
one big limiting factor is that ram needs to be able to read/write individual bytes in extremely small amounts of time, ssd's aren't so direct, they can batch IO up and read/write big blocks of 100's of KiB at a time, this doesn't need nearly as many pins

>>60109863
Can your SSD write 30 GB/s?

working here, there have been some commits since the last release, try the git version

>>60110002
i'm not really sure which part exactly makes them bigger, possibly both, the key differences being;
1. ram needs direct access to every byte
2. ram uses dram chips, not flash chips, they are very different technologies

>>60110048
Not him, but I'm using the one that came with SVP 4 (a cracked one) and I used to use it to stream and use SVP with it, but it looks like it's rip for me. Maybe an SVP update would fix it, but it would remove the crack, or at least I think so.

is it possible to root dumb phones without bricking them?

>>60110082
there isn't, just a bunch of python shit. Are these in the source or something?

>>60110084
how would you define rooting a dumb phone?

>>60110086
youtube-dl is written in python, the windows release is wrapped up into an .exe though, you didn't say which you have, nor does it really matter, just replace it with the same type of release

Rooting I mean getting access to all the files of the operating system running on the dumb phone.

>>60110102
I wanted to add another language support.

>>60110109
>Rooting I mean getting access to all the files of the operating system running on the dumb phone.
that's not what rooting means, rooting means gaining access to the root user, which only applies to operating systems that have a root user, like linux
dumb phones are typically simpler, single-user operating systems, with no concept of users

>>60110099
OK, I replaced all the shit with the source thing and it works now. Thanks my anon.
replaced it with https://yt-dl.org/downloads/2017.04.26/youtube-dl-2017.04.26.tar.gz

>>60110126
np

to be clear, python is an interpreted language, so the files you execute are also the sources
the windows .exe is simply the python sources with a python interpreter integrated, avoiding the need to have python installed separately, which is a pain on windows because >no package manager

>>60110139
(oh, that and most OS's besides windows already have python installed)

This might be a really stupid answer, but I think you could achieve this with mount --bind on linux at least. You could try looking for something like that, at least I assume you're on Windows.
Again though, I really don't know enough about mount --bind to be sure.

At the risk of sounding like a complete fucking retard, here goes:
I upgraded my GPU to an AMD R9 290x a little under 2 years ago, and decided to go with MSI because the general opinion on them seemed rather positive. However, recently, a strange noise started emanating from my PC. I can only really describe it as a sort of soft crackling noise. I looked into it and decided it must be originating from my GPU, I'm not 100% sure, and I guess the only way I can really be sure is to unplug it and switch to integrated graphics and see if the sound persists. The sound is almost constant, even the most minuscule load like moving my cursor or displaying a .gif makes the sound occur.

I've tried searching for the issue, asking people who are more knowledgeable on hardware than I am, etc. I still haven't been able to determine the issue, so here I am. I've recorded a sound clip of the noise, but I had to use my phone as I have nothing better at hand, and the sound quality leaves to be desired, but I hope it might help identify the issue. This was recorded while I had my web browser window opened, that's literally it.

https://my.mixtape.moe/pkkech.mp3

TL;DR GPU supposedly makes a fucking weird and worrisome noise even when not under load, no idea what it could be.

>How is this security?
TLS/SSL provides end-to-end encryption, so the messages can't be read or altered by a third party. so for example, this makes it possible for you to send a password without everyone on the network being able to read it

in order to establish the tunnel, you have to know who you are trying to tunnel to. this is the purpose of certificates. as an all-purpose "identity" system certificates are weak, and they definitely do not purport to be curated whitelist of "good guys"

there are other technologies that help with authentication such as DNSSEC, but philosophically what you want is difficult and would probably amount to a license to own a website

>>60112538
partial "internet" failure is almost always due to a bad DNS server. try pointing your DNS at 8.8.8.8, which is Google DNS. it's not any good for privacy but it never goes down so you can use it to test

But really, you have to fill out one to two captchas every time you want to check one proxy.

It depends on what options you choose during install. If you have to ask, you probably want ubuntu.

>>60116111
You don't install "motherboard drivers". After you put in the new mobo, you can boot windows and see if it repairs itself automatically. Otherwise just do the clean install. A clean install is pretty much always a good idea anyway, so you can just jump to that if you want.

I need some advice, or maybe some insight.
A week ago, my house got struck by lightning. Everything on one circuit got fried, including a router and my computer. I had the computer on a surge protector, but maybe lightning strikes aren't exactly what they're for. Silly me.

Anyway, upon hitting the power button, things that require usb power flash their lights for a second and thats the only result. I haven't opened it yet, since i have been away, but the first thing i'll look at is the PSU. I will pull it out and jump the pins to power it to see if its fried. I mean it has to be.

Likely corrupted file that's trying to load and causing system crash, possibly system file itself with delayed load after login. Try booting into safe-mode with command prompt and running "chkdsk c: /R" (might require reboot to do at boot time) could have been caused by a bad sector on your drive.

Additionally if you have a system disk can try having it validate system files and repair. If possible, back up your important data first (easy enough with the right tools..) hopefully you have a removeable sata drive that can just be attached to another desktop otherwise

I've got a package I want to install from Debian testing. I'm trying this approach:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/253866

However, I see a bunch of changes about to occur if I use upgrade or dist-upgrade after doing this which wasn't the case before the change.

Am I doing something wrong?

The package I want is just an upgrade, but it's not in backports.

>>60117378
clearly. i just thought that with it running through so many complex algorithms, it would be a lot slower. i feel like there's something im not understanding

>>60117352
The slow process is the training phase (feeding it images so it learns to recognize them) of the program. The inference (classifying a single image) doesn't take many calculations and is very fast.

I have a NAS that I'd like to use for cloud storage as well as local. I'm planning on using nextcloud, but I'm wondering about how to go about making it available anywhere, like, if I'm at my buddies house and want to download a file, how do i connect to my cloud drive? Would I need a domain?

>>60117395
>but it's not in backports.
so? backport it.

1. go to packages.debian.org search for you package, open the sid version
2. on the right side you can see source files. Download the original source and the debian changes. Unpack the original source and the debian files package
3.a. if the debian changes is a patch file, apply it:

cd program-orig-source
patch -p1 < program-debian-changes.patch

3.b. if the debian changes contains a directory called "debian" copy it in the original source dir
4. make sure your original source tar and the debian patches tar are just outside of your original source unpacked dir
5. go to the unpacked source dir and do

dpkg-buildpackage

6. install any packages dpkg-buildpackage asks you
7. when it's finished, outside of the source dir you'll find the backported .deb packages built from the source. Install those you need.

>>60117453
Technically all you need is your home IP address.
Your ISP however likely provides you you with a dynamic address (one that changes every few days), so you can't always be sure what your current home IP address is.
You can solve that problem by using a dynamic dns service (there are free ones like noip.com). They provide you with a subdomain (like me123.noip.com) that always points to your home IP address. For that to work you have to configure you NAS server to regularly update the DNS entry.

I'm dabbling in electronics for the first time in my life. and I'm currently making a preamp according to this schematic.
My input is coming from a guitar clip-on pickup (fcp-21 if you bother to look it up) and by the looks of its jack has only the tip and the sleeve, so I'm guessing I should disregard the - part of the inupt and only connect the jack on the + part of the input, right? Also, it looks to me like output is going to be mono, or positive only, so when I connect the output to a jack, should I connect it only to the tip, even if the jack has both the tip and the ring?

Considering authorities probably has tools to recover data from a disk which has been overwritten with zeros (theoretically they could recover some 50% or something, but practically I doubt they'd recover much), and that even that process can be quite slow on large disks (how much time do you need?), a better option is probably making some DIY microwave emitter which cooks your drives and destroys them immediately. I think even that would require the actual platters to be outside the drive case, not sure.

similar to how you can reset a user account's password on a mac without any tools at all including the admin account because people forget them and there are important informations on there.

the password option on macs are so useless that after you reset the user password, all the data in that user account are accessible to you.

might as well just steal your crush's MBP and reset the password to see if there are any nudes in there.

when she gets it back, she won't be able to log in and will probably call apple care who will guide them through the same step to reset the password as well

Thank you annon. You just planned out my sunday.

Any android music player that allows the user to specify the amount of times they want to repeat a certain track?

Does the screen go black or does the image freeze too?

If black, it may be your PSU. I had that problem with one of my old machines and replacing the PSU fixed it.

Is it a decent jump to go from a i5 3470 to a i7 3770?

>>60120745
Depends on what you're trying to do.

Question about university internet filters. Why are some sites blocked on my windows laptop but accessible on my phone, using the same internet?

Can people still become rich nowadays from technology like a couple of years ago?

Can somebody like Mark Zuckerberg be still as succesful as him nowadays?

>>60120897
Probably either you forgot to turn off your cellular data, or you phone uses a different DNS by default.

Gaming, and web browsing.

>>60120955
A 3470 could do web browsing with 3 cores tied behind its back. For gaming it depends. Outside of VR a lot of games still won't do much with hyperthreading, although some are a little better. Also if you're going to go to all that trouble, and you don't use VMs, might as well go for the overclockable version.

>>60121001
Improving CPU can help game performance including FPS but you'll get more bang for your buck by upgrading the GPU.

>>60120861
Ali's usually where I get replacement screens from, usually turns out fine. Don't expect the best quality screens though, things like colours being a bit off, or a dead pixel often turn up.

How do i connect my Android phone to my PC so I can copy over files?
It's a Moto G4 with Android 7.0 connected to a W10 PC.
If I connect via USB cable it recognizes the phone but it only prompts this stupid dialogue where iot asks me set up onedrive and cortana and onenote and groove and all that other shit. For further info it tells me to "unlock the phone" even though it's unlocked.
Opening it in the file browser yields a window with "this folder is empty"

>>60121064
You do it from your phone.

>>60121091
How?
There are no connected devices displayed on my phone.

>>60121118
Usually a sub option under storage, or on the notification screen. You want to change usb mode from charging to mtp

>>60121169
The dropped down notification panel was fucked up so I needed to reboot; now it works, but it doesnt make the notification pop up by itself as with Android 6.0

>>60121118
If getting basic file access via usb is proving to be a problem, there are a couple alternatives

>install a file manager with network support
>install an app that will allow you to connect to your phone from your PC via wifi (e.g. droid over wifi)

>>60121216
If it was a AMD laptop, yes but it isnt.

And is not a fucked up thermal sensor since both motherboard and CPU are reporting those temperatures, probably your heatsink fan died.

Clean it and repaste it.

>>60121210
Well, if you don't like something, you can always try your hand at a custom rom.

I keep a lot of Chrome tabs open, so that takes like 20%.
I think my FPS could possibly benefit.
I have a GTX 970 so I am not due for a GPU upgrade yet.

>>60121219
You forgot OTG cable. If it's a software issue that'll do it.

>>60121226
>>60121216
Also check the speeds of the fan.
Speccy should report it under CPU section, Speedfan otherwise.

Unless its a DC and not a PMW fan, it wont report temperatures.

You will have to open it anyway and when you do try to move the fan with your finger, if you feel it rigid/stiff change it, should be $20 tops, but if its more buy a new laptop, a $70 Thinkpad is way better than that PC.

>>60121235
Mo tabs = mo memory, not more processing power. And if it's only 20% of one core, that shouldn't matter for shit.

There is a program that translates VNs on the go, anyone know the name? im sure it has been posted a while ago, i know its a machine translation and is bad but better than nothing.

>>60121263
There's a few. ChiiTrans is one of them.

>>60121249
>Unless its a DC and not a PMW fan, it wont report temperatures.
If its a DC fan it wont report fan speeds*

>>60121257
This, though that 10GB memory footprint is still concerning otherwise.

>>60121271
Its not the one i was talking about but seems it will do the same job.

Is compatibility still a problem? last time i used a program like this was 2010~2011.

>>60121257
Right now it's at 3.2GHz using 10-15. Not bad, but still. I am planning on throwing in an extra 4-8GB soon.

I thought I could also benefit from a 3770, but if not much then fuck it. Chrome is pretty intensive with a bunch of tabs open, currently have 55. Don't want it to mess with my games.

People in security threads always say that if the feds came to seize a computer, even when you cut power the RAM will still be readable for like 15 minutes or something, so that they can still read it and use it as evidence.

So why not just open a bunch of memory-hogging programs on your computer to overwrite your RAM before shutting down? I reckon RAM would be fast enough that you could overwrite 8 or 16GB in seconds.

Is that even usable?

Unless I'm opening pages of a comic, anything over 10 is just useless.

>>60121436
RAM is more like 10s. If you unplug your computer, they won't be able to read it.

>>60121444
Not him but thats me every time i use sadpanda.

I usually have open 80+ tabs when i use it the site after a break.

>>60121404
>Paused YouTube videos
Why do you keep multiple paused videos open? How many?

>>60121457
I can understand sadpanda. Like I was saying with comics, its the same kind of deal. You're probably switching between single images.

But that guy is talking about videos.

(Even so, 80+ is kind of excessive imo. Do you not save images?)

>>60121436
Your OS won't give you that kind of access. It lives in the ram, and isolates what processes can do. You could probably write a bootable linux that would do it.

>>60121519
I download the galleries mostly, i just take long breaks.

>>60121436
>Turn PC off
>Press power button while unplugged
Problem solved.

>>60121451
Intuitively, I think you're right. RAM is volatile af. But I keep hearing people say it can be recovered with proper equipment for a much longer amount of time.

I'll do a bit of searching and see if its just some misinformation.

>>60121558
I imagine they'd have equipment that would allow them to keep it powered while in transport, but I'm sure for that to even be effective they'd also have to catch it while it's still powered on.

>>60121558
There's such a thing as "Cold Booting", where the RAM holds data for a much longer time when at sub-zero temperatures, but that only applies when the feds get your phone or laptop, and the device is still on.

They basically freeze the device while it's still powered up, solder on their diagnostic tools to boot their own OS, reboot the phone, and dump the memory contents.

>>60121595
>>60121601
Just checked up and those are the two things I had heard about. Either preventing loss of power or freezing the chip.

>>60121485
Like 20.

How does a computer use the two ram slots?
for example I have 2x4gigabytes of ram, and my ram usage is currently 5gb , is 5gb split between the two ram slots (like in a RAID) or the computer uses the first 4gb ram first then assigns the 1gb on the other 4gb ram

>>60121444
It's totally usable. I quite like it.

>>60121839
I think it's like RAID 0.
The data is striped across each channel:

DIMM1    |    DIMM2
01234567 | 89ABCDEF
GHJKLMNO | PQRSTUVX

whats the best free cloud storage i can use?

my mom has an iphone and apple wants to charge her 5 dollars a month to use icloud, so im trying to get her to use google drive or w/e is recommended

>>60121839
>>60121912
That's why, if you have DIMM's of different sizes in different channel slots, it will only run as single channel.

In single channel mode, it's sequential, as you suggest in your question.

How reliable is this site?
I would plan on either getting Fair, Good, or Very Good.

I just need to play fairly modern games at a nice framerate, but I couldn't care less about graphix, so low video settings at 1080p is fine for me.

Also, I'll be running programs that are currently resource heavy on my Thinkpad W510 like Netbeans, SQL, Visual Studio, and Adobe products.
Not asking for you to build my PC, I'm just a software guy who needs a reputable website to help me choose the best hardware for what I need.

>>60121989
>How reliable is this site?
More reliable than this thread.

>>60121989
It's pretty OK. It's a great starting point.

>Visual Studio, Adobe products
Definitely bump the CPU up to an R5 1500X/1600 with 16GB of RAM for productivity.
I'd recommend dropping down to an RX 460.

new thread?

I'm trying to get my CSS flexboxes to wrap in my webpage, and have a maximum of three columns. How do I do this?

What's the best way to get a thinkpad x130e if I only have one week in the US?

In SQL how would you update the value of primary key of a record being referenced by foreign keys (without cascade constraints) without changing/creating the structure of tables or turning off foreign key checks?

I don't know if this is right but the way I have it now is appending an underscore to all candidate keys, then creating a new record with the new primary key value, copying all column values (without the underscores). Then, I update the other table records foreign keys to point to the new record and delete the old one.

It works, but it seems a bit messy and convoluted. Is there a better way?
