Is there a good free program to convert pdf to word files?

>>60197721
CTRL C, CTRL V. I'd assume.

>>60197721
>>60197740
Yeah, and if you can't do that, your best bet is probably an OCR. And that's so-so.

>>60197721
>>60197740
>CTRL C, CTRL V.
I'll amend that to
CTRL A, CTRL C, CTRL V.
Even try just changing the file extension to what ever word uses.
Just like you do to change images from .png to .jpg

What's the best password manager for Win10? I'm looking for something that's secure and has a good layout. I'm currently using KeePass, but I don't know if that's the best choice for me.

Grub2 vs. Syslinux. What is better and why?

Can someone help me answer this exam-style question about latency and bandwidth?

A data analyst needs to analyse data which is stored halfway around the world.
His decisions to do this are:
1) Download the entire load and do them on the fast computers where he is
2) Do all the calculations remotely
3) Download only the ones required

For each one, explain which of latency, bandwidth or both, would be a problem, and what the best decision would be.

I can't connect to my server running mpd using MPDroid. Even setting iptables policy to ACCEPT changes nothing, so firewall can be ruled out.

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? Isn't this supposed to just werk?

I bought a Skullcandy Barricade Mini today for 25 at wal*mart. I charged it up and everything. It doesn't turn on at all. I called SC and they said it should of given me a red and blue light while charging and it didn't.

does anyone know anything about this model and why it's not working? Everything else Skullcandy I own works fine

>>60197891
EDIT:
The problem I'm having is that I don't know how the bandwidth would be limited in terms of the information given.
Obviously distance increases latency, but there's nothing there that explicitly limits bandwidth. What could you say would limit bandwidth? Distance as well?

>>60197891
>>60198026

Hint:

1]
Bandwidth: Due to bandwidth restrictions, it may take a long time to download the data.

Latency: Latency shouldn't be an issue given the computers are "fast." The only latency will be network latency.

>>60198008
Fuck that just take it back, as long as you have the receipt don't even worry about messing with it.

>>60198008
Just return it dude, probably faulty electronics

Are there any real differences between Spotify premium and Amazon music unlimited? As far as I know, they both stream max 320kbps, the only difference (for me) is unlimited is £2 cheaper because I have prime, but it doesn't let you queue songs.

>>60197632
what are some good resources for learning java. I tried the Finnish University course and i think it's a little dull.

>>60198044
>The only latency will be network latency.
That's what I thought too. I didn't think of bandwidth in terms of local-processing.

Why might there be bandwidth restrictions? Imposed by the ISP or something? Or could it also mean that the bandwidth in the data centre in Zimbabwe has shit computers and may take a long time to locally process the data?

>>60198045
>>60198049
WELL that's the thing, I believe I can however it was on clearance (it's not a bad model they are just getting ready for a new shipment of items and they need to get rid of shit is all)

I think Wally has a "no return" policy on clearance items. I don't remember.

>>60198067
Hmm, no clue. Worth mentioning, if you have a .edu email, you can get spotify for $5 a month [in US.]

>>60198082
Either imposed by the ISP or imposed by network congestion [be sure to mention both LAN and WAN congestion.]

>>60198092
Well, now you know why it was clearance.

>>60198092
Their returns policy matter two fuck alls. You're protected under consumer law.

>>60198092
If you make enough fuss they will do whatever you need, even if it's a full cash refund.
Pretty much take it apart for a learning experience and risk further breaking a broken item, or get that cash and buy some shit off brand.

>>60198132
lol I have the jam speaker where you can pair 2 together. I need a 2nd one. IF that's on sale, I'll buy one of them. I had a 2nd one before but the speaker when out when it accidentally hit the concrete. Those are REALLY nice.

>>60198121
Really... Huh. honestly, I didn't know that was a thing. I'mma google that.

>>60198108
Yes and no.
Yes it was on clearance however, a shit load of good shit is on clearance. Mostly cause it's that time of the season when they are getting newer models of stuff in. Like how shit gets marked down say a new Samsung phone was 300 now 150 cause the new model came out. There's nothing bad about it, but the rep on the phone said this is the 2nd call he got about it, but likely not the same issue. I'm hoping it's just a defected model.

Thank god I kept the stupid receipt

But how do you find out how many bits you need to hold m number of things? Is there an equivalent expression?

>>60198681
That's good anon.

However, you gotta remember something, it's only as fast as your HDD will write it to disk. So essentially, even if you have 1TB of internet to work with, it still will take 2 minutes for you computer to download that 3 GB movie. Or if you're a Blueray loser, 10 minutes for that 45GB download

>>60198522
It entirely depends on the phone/tablet model. Most of that shit is hacks that are designed to break through all the security and weirdness the manufacturer put in place. Some times the requirements to pull that off can be a bit weird and specific.

>>60198709
>So essentially, even if you have 1TB of internet to work with, it still will take 2 minutes for you computer to download that 3 GB movie.
Even on a slow harddisk that shouldn't take more than 30 seconds. On a modern SSD, more like two seconds.

My grandpa is a fucking die hard internet explorer fan. Worst of all he is using a computer that can't install any IE updates beyond 7 for some reason....

>>60198447
Very unlikely. Most installed microsoft shit won't work without its registry entries, and you're not getting that to save your life. Also if it's a different OS version you'd probably be boned anyway. Movie maker is an addon that isn't independent from the OS.

>>60198812

>>60199025
Different file structures require different code structures. "structured binary files" is a very broad classification, and can mean a lot of different things.

>>60199083
Sure. A quick bash script will do the job.

Because some people like the original blu ray or 4k quality, and have the internet connection to support it. It's cheaper than buying the actual disk and less cluttery, but you still get a solid copy you can keep long term.

>>60199256

>>60199240
There is a difference. Whether anyone can actually tell I don't know. It would be fun to do the equivalent of a taste test challenge and see who can spot the difference. I'd say around 12gb per movie is about the cutoff for me where more doesn't seem to matter.

Space is relative. You could buy 5 full priced blu rays, or an HDD that can hold 100.

As of today, my Start Menu hasn't been working. What can I do to fix this?

>>60199025
Every format is different.
Do you want to implement it yourself?
Read
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/files/
For the basics.
Then make an application that reads and writes to a binary file.
Then implement the decompression algorithms and use them to load an image.

This is a waste of time for most people, so usually, students implement a ppm reader for the experience and then use a library to read various file formats.

>>60199423

Sure, best quality is awesome. But I feel like at that point, that's how big the final development would be if it were JUST rendered from their software editor.

Yep, I want to implement it myself...
I already have the documentation (what which byte means) and already made something (kind of) with Java (read, keep it in an object...), but I'd like to see how the c++ code looks like in real life (how it would read a file [BMP for example] and store the meaning of each byte / group of bytes)

Could you go into a little more depth about how to implement something like that?

I wonder how torrent, ipfs, bitcoin, text/image compression etc. works. Where should i start learning? Recommend me some online courses (MOOCs preferably) if you know.

>>60201124
Torrenting: works via P2P system. A tracker has a list of what everyone has currently downloaded. Then, when requested, it will send this data to a client. The client will then know what chunks to download from specific seeders.

Bitcoin: torrent merged with high level encryption. Basically, bitcoin is produced from machines which spend large amount of resources and time on solving cryptographic problems. The actual time and power converts directly to bitcoin.

Text compression: See the Huffman algorithm for a good start.

Image compression: A basic start... you know how a lot of images have a lot of the same color throughout them? Instead of recording the same RGB info every single pixel, they will map a space of pixels.

It is like saying [0,5] as opposed to [0,1,2,3,4,5] in algebraic notation.

I hope this helps. As far as MOOCs, I don't know of any, and I've never taken any. I just look at stuff on wikipedia when I'm bored.

>>60200953

A VPN is a connection between two computers. You can pay someone to be that other end. What you can do depends on that second computer's internet connection. PTs generally know when you're using a service based on their IP range. They all have their own rules. Read them.

Even all the bullshit notifications, like where it plasters a message on the screen about how much my device's free space has changed over the past x days every fucking time I open it? (pic related)

Cause obviously they seem to know best how much I need to "handle" the fact that I actually make regular use of my tablet's storage space, among other things.

When did "VPN service" basically become synonymous with "proxy"?

A VPN is a private network established over a public network. For example, a business might have a building in London and a building in Manchester. They can send packets between the London branch intranet and the Manchester branch intranet through the internet by sending packets in tunnel mode, and the network will appear to anyone except the sysadmin to be one single network.

I've asked in a few threads already, but nobody has been able to answer, so here it goes again.

Does anyone know how to get rid of this watermark without actually disabling test mode? I need it for drivers

I also found this from another website:

>Open up Regedit and navigate to the following keys:

>[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\CA\Certificates\FEE449EE0E3965A5246F000E87FDE2A065FD89D4]

>[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\ROOT\Certificates\2BD63D28D7BCD0E251195AEB519243C13142EBC3]

>And delete the pair of them, reboot and lo and behold dodgy testing message has vanished!

The second one isn't actually in the registry, and that post was specifically to remove the test mode watermark from 7600, not 7601, so I'm getting close. I just don't particularly want to start blindly deleting shit from the registry on a trial and error basis.

If I make an instance of a class and print it, how can I change the value it returns?

They don't, modern CPUs switch off the clock and/or power to as many sections of the chip as possible that aren't being used right now.

>and/or larger, more complex sections of the processor effectively has longer traces and therefore puts out more heat?

The traces are negligible for power, it's just more logic in the more complex sections.

Modern CPUs will also automatically adjust clock and frequency so when mostly idle it'll drop down to take less energy per clock out of the same amount of logic.

Not all cycles of instructions are built the same anon (nor do they take the same amount of time, even if it's milliseconds.)

A nop instruction, for instance, will do nothing. The processor reads the single byte and determines it's supposed to move on. This could be done within a single hertz.

A mov instruction, on the other hand, reads the byte that says mov (it's not that simple but you get the point) and knows it now has to read the next 2 bytes (which in turn could actually be pointer to other bytes.)

Say we need to move data from the internet to the hard disk. You need to run through a bunch of instructions that grab the data through nic and then move it memory before moving it from memory to the area of the hard disk you determine it needs to be.

So to TL;DR: Yeah, it kind of uses more parts of the processor but also reads, writes and compares many more bytes when doing actual work.

Does the x220t support coreboot?

>>60202561
>take more bandwidth

I don't think you know what bandwidth is anon.
Bandwidth is how much data is coming down the line at once and throughput is the amount of times per second is does so (1 hertz == the amount of data on a single band per second.)

Also, not all of my folders have the bracketed group name (no name). Just to double check, the deletegroup(name) would return an empty string, and nothing would be cleaved from those titles, right?

Stupid hardware question for a first time PC builder.

If a HDD says it comes with nothing but the HDD, no screws, cables, etc. does that mean I at least need to buy a SATA cable or will the case come with it? Or does it vary by case? I realize most cases are now screwless and I am getting one that is toolless, but it seems like I'm going to need to buy a SATA cable and maybe something for a disc drive too (weird to be buying a disc drive in 2017 I know but...I need it)

So I downloaded a movie a while back and Im just now getting around to watching it, and something with the audio is fucked up.

Should I get Asus's z270 Code? Or the z170 Deluxe? I like the look of the Deluxe and kinda hate the gaymer aesthetic of the Maximus series.

>>60206458
Z270.

if it was touching the heatsink directly, maybe, in extreme circumstances
ABS plastic (which lego uses) has a glass transition temperature of 105C, the outer shell of a gpu shouldn't ever get that hot

Is there a way to fix the motor in my jelly vibrator without taking it apart?
I'm poor and can't afford a new one, so I really want to fix this one.

>>60206859
>how do i fix something without touching the internals

>>60206884
I can't stand cutting up my only vibrator unless I had a new one already, and even then it'd hurt me too much emotionally, because I've had this one for 3 years ;-;

>>60205848
help, pls

return it and use sata like a normal non retard

just buy a generic 1TB SATA from PCCaseGear or someone else for $50-60

Don't worry, I will.
Thanks for the suggestion, hope you have a good day, anon.

Thanks guys. I tried changing the DPI settings of all the phone/contacts/etc apps back to no avail, but changing the entire system DPI back to 320 from 160 made it work. I'm missing something because this means the dialer must be able to work at 320, even if the system is at 160.

I've spent so much time fucking with budget phones learning a ton about the inner workings of Android. Sorry if I don't want to buy a flagship and flash a shiny rom on it and would rather hack the shit out of a $100 phone and get more or less the same functionality out of it, while manually debloating the stock rom.
Thank you the two that helped me, but you, please fuck off of /sqt/ and go argue about GPU benchmarks or something

Just built this pc and put a rx 580, the gpu fans spin when booting but right now they're idle, shouldn't they be spinning at all time or is that just normal.

And yes I know about the single channel ram, I screwed up on that one, second stick is gonna arrive on saturday

Can a sandy bridge support 2k over vga?

>>60207467
They only spin when they need to spin to cool the card down

>>60207516
Oh well, that makes sense. Thanks anon.

My CPU underclocks itself when I wake my PC from sleep. It's only started doing this since I reinstalled Windows 10. Is there any reason for this and any way to stop it?

There's nothing wrong with my thermals or anything.

Where should I start with learning web dev? Where should I start with learning networking? How do I connect my current knowledge of compiled programming with web development?

In regards to networking I want to know more things than just port forwarding or setting up a static IP for playing warcraft 3. Here's some specific things I'd like to learn.

>Setting up an FTP to share downloaded files with friends remotely.
>Setting up an RSS to download anime for me.

I guess in general though I just want to know more about how computers work, operating systems, networking, and more information about things that exist and how they work. I feel like as a 25 year old that's used his computer for gaming, watching anime, programming, and little else my actual computer knowledge is extremely low even if normalfags consider me a "computer guy".

I don't actually know why reseting a router can fix the internet.
I don't know what it means when it says "DNS" server unavailable.
The only times I've ever used my cmd to check my IP and internet its for accessing my router or when I install Arch Linux and I need to set up wifi.

I actually have no fucking idea how websites work. I have much better vague understanding of how an executable works. My friend is working for the NAVY and he's learning the structure of massive circuit boards that cost a fuckton. He's responsible for operating and maintaining this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phalanx_CIWS.

I want to learn shit and get an important job too. I might join the NAVY as well. I'm tired of being ignorant.

why do people on /pcbg/ force people to buy an ssd when its not needed at all. I see so many people get butt blasted when someone doesn't buy an ssd.

>>60207829
Everyone needs an ssd for their system drive.There is no reason to not have one, they are around $.50/gb.The performance gain is worth it.
A 256 is ~$80-100

>>60207856

Do you understand how mechanical drives work and how much of a difference there is in read/write speed?

>>60207613
Just start reading anon. There are YouTube videos too. Just google things to find the answers to your question. To very roughly give you an idea what dns is, think of it like a phone book. Websites have IP addresses(think of this as telephone number), and domain names(.com, the name of person you're calling), when you type in a domain, the computer doesn't know what the IP address you are looking for is, so it has to do a DNS look up to find the correct IP address, which is like looking in a phone book to get a telephone number.

>>60207948
To expand on this, "DNS server unavailable" would be like someone pissing on your phone book or hiding it from you. It means that the server that your computer is using for DNS look ups is down or your computer can"t access it for some reason like network issues.

So I have a problem with org-mode (exporting org to HTML, more precisely). I have more or less followed the tutorial (http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-publish-html-tutorial.html), but I have one little problem.
My problem is that I want the title to be between <title> and </title> in the generated html code so my browser can show it, but I don't want it to appear at the top of the page (as shown in the screenshot).

How do i cut down on my digital hoarding obsession?

Are there any free (as in libre) x86 processors?

I use iTunes as my music player on PC and isyncer to put the songs on my edge 7.

iTunes automatically equalizes the song volumes so they are all the same but my phone doesn't.

How do I equalize the volume on my phone?

I accidentally clicked on sync contacts in FB messenger and it added people to my list. I don't have phone number verified.

Did those people get any kind of notification that I added them?

want to setup a send-only STMP server on my linux server, what are good alternatives?
preferably said alternative should have a docker image

why are some FM frequencies silent while others have noise?

I have one network; my LAN. I have two user accounts on my PC. I want to disconnect from the internet on one user when I switch to the other and vice versa.

Except, it won't let me disconnect from the network, only disable the adapter, which affects the other account. Then if I enable it while on the other account it will activate it for both users.

How do I achieve this?

>>60209259
https://askubuntu.com/questions/102005/disable-networking-for-specific-users

>>60209320
not him, but didn't know iptables could do that, neat

>>60209195
silent as in quieter noise or completely, dead silent?

if it's dead silent, then it's probably just squelch, that is, the radio is detecting no signal worth playing, as mutes the output
the noisy ones in that case have at least some signal, enough to not trip the squelch circuit

>>60209359
why the white-noise sounding stuff almost everywhere else though?

my areas shut down all FM transmission this year so there is nothing

>>60209426
>my areas shut down all FM transmission
out of curiosity, what do they use for radio instead? or do people just not listen to the radio there?

noise comes from many sources, not necessarily things targeting FM frequencies specifically
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_%28radio%29

>>60209485
dab

>>60209511
oh that, i've heard about that years ago, but it seemed to me like it didn't take off, as i haven't heard about it since
very surprising to me that it has gone as far as supplanting FM entirely in some places

>>60209541
kind of shitty in my opinion since some people do not want to throw away their fm-receivers or purchase expensive adapters

Is is53BA.exe important? What even is that?

How does accessing files from NAS/DAS work in terms of what happens on the PC accessing them?
For example, say I have a movie file on the NAS and want to watch it on my PC. I presume you can somehow access the network drive just like normal drives and see file contents available.What happens if I load the file with my preferred video player? Is there delay before I can watch the file? Is the file downloaded onto the PC as a temporary to allow streaming it from the NAS?

Similar question with writing to the NAS. If I'm downloading a torrent on the PC, it is possible to set the download directory to the NAS server? Will this lead to double-congestion where the torrent gets downloaded to PC and then transferred to the NAS or would it download straight to the NAS?
