I can't connect to my server running mpd using MPDroid. These are the iptables rules I have:
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m multiport --dport 6600,8000 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m multiport --sport 6600,8000 -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

Here's the mpd.conf:
music_directory         "/Storage/Music" # permissions 774 mpd:audio
user "mpd"
#bind_to_address "localhost"
#port "6600"
audio_output {
type "httpd"
name "My HTTP Stream"
encoder "vorbis" # optional, vorbis or lame
port "8000"
# bind_to_address "0.0.0.0" # optional, IPv4 or IPv6
quality "5.0" # do not define if bitrate is defined
# bitrate "128" # do not define if quality is defined
format "44100:16:1"
max_clients "0" # optional 0=no limit
}

Output of netstat:
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:8000            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      9881/mpd

Output of 'netcat localhost/ip' is "OK" for port 6600, but simply abruptly closes on port 8000.

What am I missing?

Integrated Graphics machines have to dedicate a portion of CPU power to do a job they aren't designed to do efficiently.

Try shutting off FXAA and PhysX. Had the same problem for DXHR.

Also onboard graphics is a POS. Get future machines with a dedicated graphics card.

Not possible, you would need to use a signed driver instead of that shaddy driver.

>>60184643
Probably getting a lot of interference, both from other networks and other devices on your own network. If neighbors have N and you don't, you're both hurting eachother's top speed, although not as brutally as if someone was using B. There's also a lot of overhead to begin with.

So after throwing myself at it, bridging seems to be successful.
Still need to kill the other wifi and should be good.

However, I'm using a Netgear WNDR3300 with DD-WRT (build 14896, from 2010).
While I'm doing all this I feel I should safely update it before forgetting about it but the wiki and forums are sending me in circles and dead-ends on actual firmware files.

Any advice here?
Thus far I've seen "confirmations" of this router running up to at least build 26125: https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1032487
Or should I not care about it and stick to 14896?
>>
>>60185963
More reading later, stumbled through their FTP server and found the proper folder which hosts the latest builds seemingly fit for this router:
ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2017/04-24-2017-r31899/broadcom/

So now the question is am I safe to just use the vanilla mini generic (same as 14896)?
>>
>>60186161

I need a power amplifier for my 2 passive speakers which are 150W RMS @ 8 Ohms

I understand that running them in parallel causes it to drop to 4 Ohms, so if I got a an amp which is capable of outputting 150W @ 4 Ohms, would it be capable of running the 2 daisy-chained speakers off one channel, while nothing is being output from the other channel?

Suppose I set up a private-access web server in Canada, and used it to stream and share files between a small circle of friends. Also suppose no files will be illegal to possess in and of themselves, like snuff of any kind.

1. Is it remotely likely that the government or my ISP would snoop on my web traffic put me in shit for distributing he files if they're copyrighted?

2. When streaming audio or video, I'd likely just be doing it to one client: I understand that I'd need an upload speed which exceeds the bitrate of any audio or video files I want to stream. However, what should I consider when it comes to RAM, CPU, and file storage?

So, 1st, what's the function's arguments
> go accumulator stillToProceed

then the base case

... and ...

> let (q,r) = b `quotRem` 10
from the function name, i guess it makes a division by 10 'till there is no unusable remainder -> with 21, you get (2, 1), 123 -> (12, 3), etc. the values goes to q (quotient) and r (remainder).

> in go (a*10 + r) q
then, it call itself with that result added to the new result, the remainder is being transferred to the accumulator, after the latter is (10*)'d

f = go 0
>>> f 123 => go 123 0
>>> go 12 3+(10*0)
>>> go 1 2+(3*10)
>>> go 0 1+(32*10)
>>> 321

it reverses the decimal number passed as argument. It'd work for another base if you change all the 10, e.g. with a 2 for binary.

A multimeter will tell you, just measure the voltage across the battery in question. Anything above the nominal voltage (what is written on the battery) is fine, when it goes quite a bit below then it is almost depleted.

That's doable.

Just get yourself an SQL environment (simplest solution would be Ms Access) and get cracking.

Also there's a lot of simple tutorials out there.

Try to understand what this does:

SELECT a.*
FROM my_table AS a LEFT JOIN
(SELECT sum(value_1) AS my_sum, value_1
FROM my_table
WHERE value_2 <> 'nope'
GROUP BY value_1
HAVING sum(value_1) > 1
) AS b ON a.value_1 = b.value_1
WHERE b.value_1 IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY a.id


It's not really a sensible query, but it shoudl give an idea about what stuff you need (syntax, subqueries and so on..)

>>60191742
unicode is just a huge collection of code points, its not an actual encoding format
utf-8 on the other hand IS an encoding format, capable of encoding any code point available in unicode
why U+03A9 is encoded as CEA9 in utf-8 is because it uses continuation bytes to save space

Should I only charge my battery after my phone dies, or should I do incomplete charge cycles? Charge it to 100% or something else? Can I leave it plugged in at 100% (i.e. During sleep) or is that bad for the battery? Is quick charge okay to use or is it detrimental to battery life?

i doubt quick charge is good for batteries, it's been a long time since i looked into quick chargers though, what i know about it was probably regarding NI-MH batteries

yea, there's a few software things you can do, not specifically lineageos, but root gets you access to a few relevent things, as well as installing a new rom means you can avoid installing gapps
- let only what you need run in the background
- install Performance Control (f-droid), a few options to look at include (need root);
-- cpu scheduler: ondemand/conservative
-- multicore power save: on/aggressive
-- decrease voltage: ticked (if your phone has problems such as locking up or sudden reboots, turn it back off, not everything can handle this)
- use adaptive brightness, keep brightness as low as is comfortable
- under developer options, turn off animations

How do people get "custom" emails? Like for example [email protected]

any free way to do VM's?

>>60193402
You need to get yourself a "custom" domain name.
>>
>>60193402
1. buy domain
2. set MX DNS record to mail server
if you want to make your own mail server, you'll also want a VPS

>what the fuck does ... mean
it's like a backwards domain name, it's just;
com.<developer>.<appname>
it's used to help ensure app names can't collide internally (be the same as another) even if they appear normally with the same name (like you might see multiple apps called simply "Gallery", it would be a problem if they all used the same resources internally)

if you just need unauthenticated access, then the only thing missing there is the interface to listen on, though even that might not be required (might default to all/any interface if left unset)

anywhere, just check the sha1sum when done to ensure it hasn't been messed with

What is a good domain? Is namecheap good? What would also be a good vps?
>>
>>60193768
I've been with GoDaddy for a while, but moving to namecheap soon. I'd go with it.

Ramnode is a great VPS.
>>
>>60193765
yea, it's a type of namespace
this particular format afaik is just related to android, though the idea isn't new
it's not really a "programming" thing per-se
not sure about namespaces besides com. on android, i'm not an android developer
>>
>>60193768
>What would also be a good vps?
You might be better off just getting ProtonMail Plus and have them be your mail server for your custom domain.
>>
>>60193768
quick warning, setting up a mail server from scratch isn't terribly trivial
do some reading before buying anything, then decide if it's something you can (be bothered to) handle
>>
>>60191388

Maybe you are retarded?

1) There are variables. Basically numbers and characters (int, float, char and so on). They can be mutable or immutable. Variables can be anything, depending on the langauge it's simple or complex data structures.

2) There are conditions (if, switch/case) that allow you to execute code or not, depending on a certain value.

3) There are iterators, things that start somewhere and end somewhere (for, while, each and so on).

4) There is Scope. Because you don't want ten thousand variables floating arround in a single programm, you hide those variables outside the place where you need them (namespaces, packages, APIs, classes, interfaces, functions, procedures, structs or howevery a language calls it).

5) There is a way to communicate with the "outside world" (interfaces for user I/O, importing differnt programs/functions/libraries, sockets, protocols).


Woah, that was so much to remember, wasn't it?

I've had a win10 laptop for a while, it was complaining. That I hadn't activated windows and I have a weird drive setup (win10 on 1tb HDD, certain folders symlinked to SSD)

One day I turned off my laptop. When I turned it back on it "couldn't start correctly" and I tried first startup repair. No dice. Then I tried recovering from an ancient restore point. It booted but bluescreened immediately with system_service_exception.

I know I need to reinstall windows but any clue what happened?
>>
>>60193830
>>60193768
oh, you can play around with a local server (virtual or otherwise) if you like
you can host your mail locally as well, in place of a VPS, of course, you'll need a static IP and you will not be able to receive mail if your connection goes down

>>60189269
Any ideas on this?

I would rather do that. Mail usually doesn't take up too much storage right? Namecheap also has to option to get a private server.

So when you install a program, the files go onto your machine, right?
I have a copy of the C: drive of my old machine which had Windows Movie Maker on it. I've found the .exe file, as well as other files in the ProgramFiles/WindowsFiles/PhotoGaller folder, but is there any way I can actually run it on my current machine?
Double clicking the .exe does nothing
>>
>>60193989
i figured it was inhereted from something, but didn't know more about the subject
>>
>>60194016
no, storage is pretty much just the size of the mail itself
attachments will likely be the bulk of the total storage requirements, how much that will be depends on the volume and kind of mail you receive

i run a friends' mail server, who uses it pretty frequently for work, with pictures and other things often being attached, since 2013 it's only up to 1.5GiB of mail

>>60194082
receive and send, i should say
if you're doing a modern IMAP setup, where all mail, sent/received/draft/etc are kept on the server
if you did an old POP style system, where mail is removed from the server once received by a client, then storage requirements drops to only that which has yet to be received by your client, but nobody does this anymore, as services now provide tons of space, and people want to see the same mail on more than one device

I guess that's a no then.

>>60194115
You can create more than 4 threads on a quad-core CPU because of multi-tasking.

Atomically, no more than 4 threads can run at the EXACT same moment on a quad-core CPU. However, it can be simulated to the end user by using context switching.

Threads are literally just ultra-lightweight processes.

Use a VPN, but then they might ask why you're using a VPN
To avoid that you could use a VPN through your phone

>>60194564
No, it's long enough. It's just that there's a metal part sticking out past the actual connector on the GPU. I can't actually get close enough to the slot because the metal thing hits the case first, gut otherwise it would fit into the slot.

Nah it's part of the 970. That metal piece at the bottom on those pics stick out, so I can't reach the connector.
I'm afraid the solution is gonna be cutting that part off somehow.
