/sqt/ stupid questions thread

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?

Added a second SSD to my laptop. Battery life cut in half. How can I fix this problem short of removing the new SSD?

I've installed powertop but I don't know what to do with it and if that would even help things

>>60137216
Is it mlc? some manufacturing methods take up A LOT of electricity iirc

>>60137279
Yes it's MLC. Am I fucked?

whats the most extreme way to go about blocking ads within windows

>>60137310
Hmm, no, MLC doesn't take up a lot more electricity.

How old is your battery? How many mAh?

Keep in mind, SSDs idle less than a watt. Range from 1-5 Watts, higher end if you're constantly reading/writing.

>>60137368
Use ad block plus [yes, ad block plus, nothing else. There's something else that looks exactly like it, it needs to be from https://adblockplus.org/ ]

If you want to go more extreme, add a list of ad domains to your hosts file. You should be able to find these no problem on google.

>>60137420
>>60137368
Oh, forgot to say, some people prefer uBlock and say it takes up less ram. Never used though.

What's the cheapest GPU I can get that can output to 3 monitors? Searching around, it looks like three connections doesn't equal 3 outputs. Graphics performance doesn't matter at all, so as long as it can do 3 monitors I just want something cheap.

>>60137403
The laptop and battery are less than 6 months old. 4,866 mAh, 37 Wh battery. It has to be the addition of the SSD but maybe something auxiliary to it. My main os is Ubuntu and the secondary one is Windows. I've heard that Windows doesn't play well being the secondary drive (UEFI by the way). Not sure if that's related. For what it's worth within Ubuntu I can access my Window's file system.

>>60137488
GTX 1050 Ti. Cheapest one you'll be happy with imo. $120-150 on eBay.

>>60137492
Does the power consumption issue happen on both windows and linux? If so, it's probably the SSD itself.

>>60137574
Prob not, because of spammers. OkCupid is popular and it has an app though. Hope you find some qt3.14 that doesn't stay glued to social media.

>>60137574
okcupid doesnt require it

unless you mean "hookup" apps, which idk any popular ones besides tinder which uses it but obviously you can just make a fake one

>>60137585
Yes, set it up with Samba/SMB and use it as a network drive.

>>60137594
Ehhh, if you REALLY wanted to go that route sure. You could have 4GB ram and play games in 4k or 144Hz 1080p for an extra $80. And it sure as hell won't bog down with 3 monitors.

>>60137618
I can read and write over SMB right? Not just read?

>>60137618
Ah, I already have a 480. This is just for running under linux, gonna see if I can get PCI passthrough working for a bit of fun.

how secure is windows 98 compared to windows xp

>>60137634
Yes, you may or may not have to define it in the .conf. Make sure the global drive has write and the user has write.

>>60137636
Wait, you want to do a PCI passthrough with 3 monitors? Woah, you're brave, I don't think I've heard of that one.

>>60137670
It's more security through obscurity than anything.

>>60137420
>>60137472
adblock and all variants are shill infested - go with uBlock

>>60137531
Yea. Guess the SSD is faulty then, huh?

ANyway thanks for your replies and help.

>>60137705
I wouldn't say faulty but probably just sucks down the juice. Maybe try running only the new SSD and see if it sucks it down the same?

>>60137688
I assume if I just have one monitor plugged into the graphics card I'm passing through it wouldn't be any different to normal - most people use two monitors on their host anyway

I have a network switch in my room connected to the router downstairs to give have my main rig hard wired.

I'm setting up a little TV area in my office and I want to connect a roku to the TV which will need to connect via wifi.

The wifi is pretty shit up here, so I'd like to strengthen it. Ideally I want something that I can hookup with a patch cable to, that will take that wire and make it a wifi access point.

Is there something like this? What are my options?

I'm bad with networking.

Not at all. There's a GPU passthrough thread right now discussing it.

Dual boot is the best solution.

If you have an HDD upgrade to solid state.

Or alternatively, get a mid grade lap top to run linux for basic tasks like internet browsing, and keep your main rig windows for gaming and other heavy duty tasks.

>>60139061
>Dual boot is the best solution.
Feels nice to have a button you can press and go straight to windows without having to restart though.
GPU passthrough still remains as something enthusiasts do, the learning curve which involves having the right hardware and READING keeps out deadbeat dumbass retards.

My PC has been randomly freezing up lately. Don't know what might be causing it.

It just completely freezes in place, but if I'm playing a youtube video on the background, it keeps playing it, although really fucking slow as if playing it at 0.10 speed. Yet the system is still frozen until I hard reset it.

Is it the CPU? I tried dusting the heatsink and freezes are still happening. Maybe the GPU? I'm running the OS on an SSD, so I doubt it's that.

I fried the audio on my mobo through my headphones with static. Can I use a USB DAC as a replacement or do I need a PCI sound card?

>>60139210
yes

either is good anon, it just depends on what you want to use it for other than your headphones

>>60139146
Ive done a lot of research on comp building the past two months and ive seen benchmarks for video rendering that go all over the place with a bunch of different comps. You're really only going to see massive speed increases on professional workstation grade stuff most consumer grade processors being I5/R5 and above will only vary a little from one another. It's really a question of whether you multitask a ton or are single minded with things on whether you want an Intel or AMD.

Two/three years ago people were convinced that processor you picked was especially fast for rendering but strangely consistently amd shit that was 200 dollars cheaper was almost always about 2 minutes behind at most. The reality is clock speeds and threads aren't helping video rendering as much as people once thought. I'm saying this though when the newest processors from both companies haven't been out long and video rendering/other benchmarks haven't really shown a clear winner with work related tasks.

using the "Fn" key to adjust brightness has started suddenly turning off the brightness. in the past, i could turn it between maximum and minimum brightness using the key, now however, the key drops immediately from 10% to turning off the backlight, even though it never did this before.

Yeah, just headphones, thanks.

>>60139259
I was cold so I slid into a sleeping bag, when I put my headphones back on the static electricity jumped through my ear and went pop. Now all I get is white noise and a sound driver that freaks out if I plug anything analog in. Interestingly the optical port still works fine, so I'm using a surround sound receiver to drive my headphones right now

You could create a print and put it on a piece of steel using plasti-dip.

in graphics card drivers, what does texture filtering quality ACTUALLY do? I know performance gives a few frames at the cost of quality, and quality vice versa - but I don't really get what exactly it does and what setting is generally considered best. Goes for both brands, but more specifically AMD.

>>60139511
What do you mean put it on steel? Sounds expensive. I don't know what plasti-dip is.

>>60139512
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisotropic_filtering
It's similar to anti-aliasing, but for faces at an angle.

>>60139517
No, I mean, just a sheet of metal. You could even just use a flattened aluminum soda can, and paint it on.
Plasti-dip is just plastic in paint form.

>>60139525
So I'd have to actually paint the QR code myself? Sounds impossible. I can't reproduce a machine-readable format by hand

>>60139531

Sounds like you're a pussy that doesn't like to do hard work.
How important is your private key anyway? Doesn't sound that important to me if you don't want to make the most badass QR code PGP key ever.

>>60139544
Important enough to avoid any risk of fucking it up. I can't risk making an unrecognizable QR code just because it's impressive.

It was the same corelet whining as you see these days.
>nobody needs 4 cores, 2 cores is more than enough
>current software is mostly single-threaded anyways
>you should focus more on clock speeds than on number of cores
Dualcores died out and quadcores became the industry standard soon after.

>>60139707
Education is good, but it's designed for a different puropse. LTBS is intended for fancy embedded devices and it ditches features so that updates would be smaller and less regular.

If all you want is a good version of windows for day-to-day use then you should use Edu. You can uninstall or disable most of the bloat on it.

>>60139827
I want LTSB but with a genuine key, that's the thing. I don't trust any third-party activation software.

The education key will be genuine.

>>60139630
If you only cared about single-threaded performance, you should be looking into getting a pentium or i3 7350k anyway.

You might argue that 4 core with SMT is all you need for muh gaymes, but then you can just get R5 1500x or 1600 and save a bunch of money that would be better spent on getting a better GPU or SSD or whatever. Pretty much the only reason to get an i7 is if you absolutely must have the best gaming performance and don't care about the money or upgradability, for pretty much everything else Ryzen r5 or r7 offers better value, better performance or both.

>>60140613
It was terrible wasn't it.

A dead pixel showed up on the bottom of my laptop LCD display and it started to spread slowly (bunch of other dead pixels started showing next to it one after another) to the point there's now a black spot (with some shades of transparent green) on my screen that has a radius of about half an inch. The same thing started happening at the top of my screen (in a rather horizontal pattern) and in two spots on the left of my screen.
I'm not intending to fix it or anything, because I know It's probably fubar.
I'm just really curious what happened and what caused it.
There was no external physical interference done to the screen (I'm rather cautious with my laptop, it sits mainly in one place)

>>60140617
Yay lets compare technology to the next generation of it and call it shitty. in hind sight.Iy was what it was, you had nothing to compare it too.Thats like saying in 20 years that 60hz was so shitty when they are at 120hz.

use a flat tool like a blunt knife or flathead screwdriver and try to wedge it under the sides or bottom of the connector, and twist it
it's smart of you not to pull too hard, sometimes, especially older ones, they get stuck in there good, and you risk tearing the whole thing off the board. they're only attached via their solder joints

No GPU or SSD.

A Z270 Motherboard when the CPU isn't even unlocked.

What do you plan on doing with it?
For heavy work I'd get a Ryzen 1700 to profit from all the cores.
For games this lacks a GPU.
For casual web browsing this is massively overkill.

The SSD maybe in the future. I only need the machine to work at this level.

This build don't even use 300W. The PSU is fine.

Z270 because I can upgrade later, if needed.

I want this machine to day to day usage. Browsing, YT, 1080p movies, making electronic spreadsheet... I think that's all I do. But I feel a little lag when loading 4chan's catalogs. No games at all. Or maybe PlayOK games. Oh, and virtual machines. A lot of virtual machines.

You could just get R5 1600(x) and a cheap GPU like RX550. More cores for the VMs, and you'll be able to ACTUALLY upgrade in the future, instead of just getting the same chip with higher clocks.

>>60141493
Crap, It only has a 350 watt oem power supply. And I dont know if the chinks have some trick to make It work with a retail PSU.

>>60139182
Anyone?

>>60141161
Cerberus app.
>>60141141
Since you game, 7700K.
It's not like the extra +5% would matter in Blender, but the better single core perf means a ton more in games.

>>60141128
No, only on Optimus enabled laptops.
But modern GPUs only eat like nothing in idle, and even the fan is off until you game.

>>60141707
It totally depends on the device/brand/etc.

>>60141701
Well, vCore and such voltage? I don't know..

>>60139182
1) Update intel chipset, ALL drivers whatsoever. Yes, all.
2) Check if mobo has bios update, do it.
3) CPU would cause slow down but not like this. GPU... don't think so. Do you have artifacts in games and such? If not, no.

It may be your PSU - but then it would 100% freeze up, not just "kinda" a you say.

>>60142157
Will it stop flashing a new stock rom on the stolen device?

>>60142204
Yeah I'm thinking it could be the CPU, because the freeze keeps playing music, though horribly slow and lagged.
I was also thinking it was high temperatures, but unlikely because shit happens even when I'm doing lite stuff.

Could be a RAM issue, maybe?

>>60142251
Samsung has a similar killswitch you want.
Other companies, I don't know.

But Cerberus/Prey let's you re-capture your device, instead of just giving up on it.

I was scammed two fucking times and had sub-par performance for years thanks to those fucking shills.

Multi-core my ass. Even today in 2017 only a very few games scale. BF1 Black Bogaloo for example.

It's not like the i7 has no multi-thread performance, it will be like 10% slower at most in Blender.
Maybe I am just unlucky and it just so happened that 99% of the games I ever played and wanted to play - had bad scaling. Maybe.

Anyone can help out with database design? Say I have a user entity in my database and users can make transactions to other users. How should the transaction entity be laid out to ensure efficient look-ups?

The initial thought was to have two foreign keys to sender and receiver user entities in the transaction table, e.g.

TransactionTable:

id
SenderID
ReceiverID
money
date

but would this be alright? Cannot remember if the foreign keys will somehow fuck it up or not.

>>60142399
>It's not like the i7 has no multi-thread performance, it will be like 10% slower at most in Blender.
Are you seriously saying that blender doesn't scale at all beyond 4 cores? Because that's the only way the i7 gets anywhere near 90% of r7 performance.

The need for a GPU will make the i7 cheaper. Because even if they cost the same (Ryzen+GPU and i7), the energy bill will be higher with the AMD configuration. But I appretiate a lot your information my good friend. I'll definitely study that possibility.

>>60143192
The 550 has 45 W TDP, and at least going by US prices, R5 1600 + RX 550 combined cost less than the I7 7700. And the r5 will also perform better for anything that benefits from having more than 4 cores.

In the bright side, looks like RX 470 is way better than RX 550, but costs more than the double of it. And I don't know the TDP of this video card.

>>60143455
You should also look into cheap Nvidia cards, especially if you can't find the 550. The 470 has TDP of 150 or 120, and it's well into overkill territory for your needs.

The most common means of identifying people are looking at their add-ons and the user-agent. But if someone REALLY cares about knowing who you are, it's pretty much impossible to make yourself look so generic that you can't be uniquely identified by any means. The goal here is to remove the low-hanging fruit, not to fool state of the art systems.

My phone (Lg g3) keeps crashing and rebooting.

It doesn't when there's a charger in the phone. I thought it might have been the battery, but even with the secondary battery this keeps happening, the lower the charge is the more chance I have of a crash until it just keeps rebooting after unlocking the device. It works fine until around 70%.

I don't know what causes this, is there some sort of a log I can read out? All I can find on google is folks having issues when they put in the charger.

Sorry to ask for tech support but I'm stumped here. I'm trying to upgrade from Windows 8.0 to Windows 8.1 but I can't find a way to do it. I don't want to install any extraneous updates. Just 8.1. Unfortunately, this link http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only takes me to the Windows 10 upgrade page.
I tried to use the windows updater, which installed a crapton of updates, allegedly including 8.1 but then I couldn't get my computer to boot, and had to revert
So, I'd like to make this happen manually, but I'm having a devil of a time tracking down a way to do so.

>>60142257
It's not the CPU.

A modern CPU just slows down, and that's all if it reaches thermal headroom.
If there is no voltage, or shit connection whatever, it won't even boot.

RAM causes crashes, or usually BSOD.
Not freeze though.

SSD? Don't think so again, because the system would not just slow down.
I would still do the driver update trouble (look I am a 100% skeptic and I had similar troubles on my laptop since Windows 10. I did this update fuckery like 3 times when these freezes came up, and it fixed them always.) Like Windows 10 needs new drivers (due to the often updates), BUT it does not deliver them via Windows Update.

But if that will not fix it, I would say... PSU? Motherboard maybe?
But even a wifi/network card can cause something like this.

AND now I remember!
Visit your Power Options ,edit your plan, and check "PCI Express". Turn off "Link state power management".
Check around and see if you find other fuckery shit in there.

This might be your solution.

Well, as long as it isn't the CPU, I'm fine.

The freeze isn't just a slowdown. It's literal freeze. Cursor stops moving, keyboard doesn't respond, etc. Though the music is still playing.

If PSU is the issue, I can get it replaced. Though I don't know exactly how is it that a PSU causes freezing in the first place. Shouldn't it just power off the entire thing if shit starts going awry?

>No stupid questions
>Get trolled
but why tho?

>>60144048
Yeah the shutdown is more common on the PSU.
But read the rest. Seriously looks like my exact issue that the drivers fixed.

- Intel chipset driver
- Hand update the Intel VGA driver (if you have)
- Hand update the audio driver
- Network cards, bluetooth, whatever

And anything else you have.

>>60144096
I meant best sounding given the dac inside my phone already. It utilizes what I already have the best out of the other audio players I've used. that being said, do you know what it means?

>>60144118
So? You said that the 7700k would perform at most 10% worse in blender, and you were wrong.

>>60144125
Trim is enabled by default
Turn off defragmentation,sysytem indexing and superfetch

>>60144131
Why trolled? I'm using those at work for quite a while now.

Does a router's firewall normally just block incoming traffic?

Does anyone else usually fail the mountains captcha even though they get everything 100% right?

>>60144185
>not using recaptcha v2

>>60144155
I'm pretty sure that's the default for most firewall software, but you'd have to consult the manual for your specific router to be sure.

>>60144141
>do you know what it means?
I guess if the source mp3 file for example you are playing back, has a frequency.
When you encode, you can set that.

And I guess it will match that.
But why I don't know, because if you have it on 48kHz like now... you are good.
It's not like quality would improve.

>>60144125
I used a Kingston SSD without any "optimization", nothing really happens.
Even after so many years, my estimated remaining lifetime is like 30-40 years.
It's a meme.

You should only worry if you bought a TLC SSD.
But the 850 Pro is an MLC.

>>60144143
Boo. Time to end my life.
Though again that's just a measurement (the 20-25) of the "constant work".
But what about the workflow?!
The UI elements, the file load, and all that?
I doubt everything is threaded.

Try again, atheist!

Its not THAT frequency but this, I meant this.

Reflash a KDZ?

Might sound dumb but I've tried reflashing the same custom ROM to the device that has worked a full year but the issue still came up. (Full mics)

It's also not stuck in a boot loop, it almost looks like whenever it needs to use up more energy it can't get it and reboots. (like you undervolted the CPU and tried running a game)

But it's a stock kernel and I haven't done any under/over volting/clocking

>>60144104
Have you tried SeaTools to diagnose?

Or tools from the Ultimate Boot Disk?

What does the S.M.A.R.T of the hard drive say?

I've had poweramp on my s4 since forever which worked great for playing flac files, my op3t I got recently however doesn't want to play flac files with poweramp. The standard music app does it fine though, which rules out corrupt files.

Any ideas?

>>60144350
KDZ is LG's stock image. There is this korean tool, you put the phone to download mode and flash it.
Of course this would make you go back to stock.
It helped in my case, but it may have been special.

Btw your issue sounds like my friend's.
Ordered him like 2 chink batteries.
He had similar reboots and whatnot with the original Samsung battery.

The new replacement fixed it... then it happened again.
And again with the other one.

Moral of the story, just buy the original battery.
I bought an OEM battery, sealed and whatnot for my HTC M7 to replace the battery - and guess what...
It was dead on arrival.

After wasting my day replacing the battery, it would not take a charge.
Putting back my old one - it charged immediately.

>>60144185
Yes, I hate trying to sort storefronts and street boards for this AI to only need to do it all over again.

>>60143912

It looks like it's adjusting the quality of the DAC to whatever the source is recorded in.
So basically it's going to save you power and processing cycles because why render something that's not there?

That is the idea though.

----------------

Can anyone help me with my phone crashing problem though?

>>60143800

What should i get for Torrent/FTP/Plex(720p) server?

cheap quadcore mobo cpu onboard(GA-J1900N-D2H)
or a kabylake celeron G3930


ofcourse

>>60144420
Woah, I thought I bought an OEM, but it was off eBay so I'd consider it chink shit.

Then I'm going to buy an OEM off a local site.

Actually, I think this also might have happened with some cheap chink batteries when I had a Galaxy s3.

This might be it!

So the original battery is failing, and of course, the cheap "OEM" battery is also shit. so it crashes because of that.

I'll be forever grateful if that is the solution.

>>60144522
>>I'll be forever grateful if that is the solution.
No prob lemme fetch my paypal address.

>>60144460
I would go with Celeron/Pentium.

>>60144064
>Also if you cannot "speak" the protocol..
what do you mean by this?

Regarding the connector I think it might be either an ICT or an TSP connector. I will upload a picture of the block diagrams later when I get home. I could measure the voltage to see if it is the ICT but I dont have a female connecter that I could probe and I dont wanna short two leads

Is protonmail reliable? I like that they just purchased the pm.me domain (so my email is like [email protected] ). Just want to know if it is /g/ approved before I move everything there

>>60144460
Unless the mobo with onboard CPU is quite a bit cheaper, I'd go with the kabylake:

http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/279/Intel_Celeron_Dual-Core_G3930_vs_Intel_Celeron_J1900.html

>>60144635
Definitely /g/ approved.

>>60144564
Sure, just give it to me and I'll buy you a beer when it works, I've ordered an OEM one now, should arrive Tuesday.

I'm using a theme that uses transparent title bars. In all the integrated Elementary OS system apps it works beautifully, but in Firefox and other applications it doesn't work at all. How can I get the theme to be consistent across all applications? I thought it might be a GTK3 issue, but Firefox has apparently supported that since 46.0.

There is a folder on my flash drive that wont delete. I right click -> delete and it shows the progress bar for a moment but the folder is still there. I tried to delete it through the cmd but it says there are files inside.

>>60145023
Hmm, had this happen to me.

I transfered all files off the drive, then formatted the drive and put the files back on it.

Huh? Is there an algorithm to this? Then you might be able to make one. Get a fiverr monkey do do it?

>>60144564
No beer?

>>60145085
I'd say just fire up a live linux and delete it from there

>>60145161
Yeah, I decided to do that. It's mostly just a few music discs there, so I just got them out and am formatting it.

>>60145161
Yeah, as you can see the first number only goes to 99, the second to 99 and when it goes over, the first increases by 1. The last number goes to 4, then it increases the second number by one.
How?

>>60145347
I see.
Colleague says it should be possible, but doesn't want to think up the code.

Like I suggested, maybe try some sort of outsourcing platform. Pay them 5 bucks and get the code that looks neat.

I live in an apartment complex with cat 5 ports in the wall. I thought that they needed a router (which was given to me, it doesn't even need to be plugged into an AC outlet to work, just the cat 5 port) plugged in to port for the internet to actually be directed through these ports. Apparently I can just plug in my desktop to the wall and not use the shitty router they gave me. HOWEVER I don't know how to open ports seeing as I'm probably just hooked into some network switch somewhere. Is there a way for me to find this/open ports? I just want to host risk of rain

>>60137705
Could test by booting into a liveCD where the OS would boot into ram. Might need to unmount the SSD though.

>>60145582
the router is used to separate your network from the others.
without it you're directly connected to the houses network and to everyone else. so they can easily reach your computer through it instead of being blocked by the router.
it's also very unlikely you'll get access to the houses router to open ports, what if two people want to open the same port to them?
go ask your landlord, they'll know.

>>60145679
so you're saying I should buy a router?

>>60145526
That's not really what I ment.

Excel has it's own language (I think) that you can fill in. I only know the basics.

Enough to calculate my budgeteering and make a diagram.

If we pretend that cost doesn't matter, do we even have technology to make batteries that can store massive charges in the same form factor as existing lithium batteries?

whjere the fuck can i get a fucking god damn X79 motherboard

I have a LGA 2011 CPU I want to use

really dumb one. I installed crunchbang on my laptop and I can't get my wifi to work. the light for my wifi is orange when it should be white.

>>60145778
you don't need one.
but personally I'd rather not be part of everyone elses network, that's why they gave you a router.

Shared internet like this is only good for web surfing anyway, forget doing anything more complex or hosting anything.

>60145789

>If we pretend that cost doesn't matter, do we even have technology to make batteries that can store massive charges in the same form factor as existing lithium batteries?

Massive? No.. More? Yes, a lot more, almost double sometimes.

1.5 times the capacity, faster charging, no risk of blowing up when punctured.

The technology is there, it's cheaper, safer. Why we haven't adopted it yet is beyond me. Lithium ion batteries are a multi million dollar market though.

I keep hearing about these batteries that use algaes, or just salt water. The one that I have seen in real life is the one where it doesn't explode when punctured.

https://youtu.be/h9ZpHFrZ8B4

That's the first one I have seen working that wasn't some voodoo magic and fake promisses. I hope we're moving towards the solid state batteries.

Why are you still using crunchbang? I thought the project had been abandoned a long time ago..

And.. Hey.. Might sound a bit dumb.. But what if you pressed the wifi button on the laptop?

>>60145952

Really now? I messed up the quotation.

>>60146015
It's fast and I just like. I tried pushing the wifi button already a lot..lol

>>60145782
>that you can fill in
It's Visual Basic, and it's macros, but they suck ass.

>>60145526
No, with Python you have libraries (and in other languages too but I used Python) that allow you to directly manipulate an XLSX file. Basically you just open the file and can say Cell[0,0]="whatever" and so.

But if you can't code at all, it's not better.

Im using a TV as monitor but i have a huge problem.

When i try to play stuff in fullscreen when the resolution is 768p it resizes to 1080p making stuff blurry, intel IGPU has no option to avoid stuff from changing size, what could i do?

I got a crap laptop that turns off after a few minutes on

I dug a litter deep and found the temp controller said it was ~110C
but the laptop does not feel that hot at all
and I already dusted it clean

How do I fix this?

>>60146399
Repaste.

If its AMD&HP trash it.

>>60146399
Basic thought, check and reapply the thermal gel on the processor?

>>60146399
Well.. It looks like it's either a heating problem or a broken sensor.

What you could do is open up the laptop and replace the cooling pasta. See if that fixes anything. If it doesn't, it's most likely the sensor and you're screwed. In some cases, you can turn off the self-protection of overheating in the bios. I don't recommend doing it though.

>>60146390
Change in-game settings to 768p?

>>60146535
I do, still gets resized to 1080p.

1024x768p doesn't get resized tho.

>>60146545
Also the TV refresh rate changes to 75Hz, i wasnt aware this TV supported it.

About 4 years ago my friend helped me build a high end custom PC. He picked out the parts and him and his dad built it for me for free. I still have this computer but it's starting to show it's age. I can't use VR, i can't play games in 4K and i can't play new AAA games anymore at Ultra settings. I would ask my friend for help again but we are no longer on good terms and i haven't talked to him in 2 years. Is there a way i can hire someone to look at my PC, tell me what parts need to be upgraded, what parts i should buy and for him to install the parts for me? Should i look for a local computer shop or is there a website i can go to?.

No idea. But when I look up the error codes I keep turning up information about it'll work a few times and then nothing for days at a time. So it sounds to me (and I'm not really a programmer) that the way it's returning the hash isn't consistent.

Do I really need 240GB SSD or only 120GB? I will only put windows 10 on it.

>>60147498
240GB.

120GB is not enough and are slower and last less than 240GB ones.

Also after installing windows you will be left with 80GB, and random files will eat it really fast, also Updates and trash files.
Also you need to take in consideration basic programs which are another 20GB so you actually have 60GB space.

120GB is enough.

Father has all his shit on his C, all the drivers and even programs, and he has 20gigs space. Windows 10 can also compress itself up.

Man I have 240GB drives in my machine, but come on now. I use this because I install games and keep virtual machines on my SSD as well. But for an OS + apps, 120GB is more than enough.

I used these two 240s for years in RAID0.
Only this year they slowed down and I didn't know why. Turns out, even though Windows says "TRIM supported", the drive might not get the command.

Raid card gets it, and says "into the trash".
So after like 5-6 years they slowed down.
FIVE YEARS OF NO TRIM, let that sink in.

And guess what.
The drives after very heavy use (I never cared about not using hibernation, where to put downloads, where to torrent, I dont care.)....

They still have like 20 years of lifetime left.
20 fucking years.

And after I took apart the array, let them TRIM themselves, they are good as new, fast as fuck.
SSD scaremongering is a meme and the myth has been busted years ago.

>>60147679
Maybe. I bet on MLC though.
When new tech came with MLC for example, it was shit. Samsung / OCZ also fucked up way too many times in the years.

I would just wait for a few years before moving to it.
