I just upgraded phones, so now I have a spare Nexus 5. I want to use it as a handheld emulator using RetroArch. What hardware can I use to clip the phone to an X360 controller? I've seen dualshock clips but I'm not a fan of that controller. If one doesn't exist, how realistic would it be to make one?

>>60630931
Yeah.

are there BGA-specific chips? or can I fit regular (PGA) processors in BGA boards?

I'm talking about Core2Duos for reference.

just try it, what's the worst that could happen

Is it possible to, for example, use Intel iGPU to play games and send image to nVidia GPU which sends it to monitor(and vice versa) on GNU/Linux? I'd like to use both my iGPU and GPU. BTW, I'm using proprietary nVidia driver.

>>60631067
What if it's not?

>>60630790
you have exactly zero protection from the US/UK gov. Basically their fear mongering about Russia, China and NK applies to you many times more.

>>60631044
I might've misunderstood you, but BGA means Ball Grid Array and in this context probably means that the CPU is soldered to the motherboard which you won't be able to change without some serious equipment.

Asked about this in previous thread but made a video now, dunno how useful it is.

System has been working fine for the last year, but over the last month its started dying. Having a problem where during games my PC will randomly either just totally shut off, or the screen will go black, I still get audio but I can't do anything other than power it off physically. In OCCT's PSU test, the GPU wont stay at 99% load for some reason, it keeps cutting out, I don't know if this has anything to do with it. I watched some vids of people doing this stress test and their FPS stays rock solid, but mine shits the bed every 5 seconds.

The clicking you can hear is extremely loud and not a noise it used to make, I'm pretty sure its coming from the PSU but I am going to have to remove it from the system to check.

Any ideas what it might be before I rip apart my friends PC for parts to diagnose shit? Thanks.

>>60631124
then it wont... does nmap scans through all the devices on the internet just because your internet is working?

at least thats how I understand it.. I might be wrong

>>60630722
how non free software works?
Like I can't see code or something like that
But how the fuck I can't see that but can install lol how can they are hide it
Is that can't be dissembled?

>win10
>disabled everything mouse-related in the device-manager from being able to wake the pc from sleep mode
>still able to move mouse to wake pc

This is especially annoying because sometimes it turns right back on after putting it to sleep.
I don't wanna turn my mouse upside down, and I couldn't find anything in the uefi-settings.

What do?

>>60631130
I'm aware of that, soldering station and all.

what I mean is, the CPU in my laptop is soldered. I want to upgrade it to a T9900. could I fit one with pins (PGA) or does it have to be a specific BGA model?

is there even a difference?

google - what is compiling
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhC7sdYe-Jg

>>60631157
Any code that can be run on your computer can theoretically be disassembled. There are techniques like virtualization and encryption that can make this more difficult, but generally consumer software isn't going to do this since it will significantly reduce the performance of the software and there's little reason to do it. Making heads or tails of a complicated piece of software that someone already wrote is hard enough when you can see it with all the proper formatting, comments, and variable names in place. None of that information is preserved by the compiler, so it is very difficult to try to interpret code that has all that information stripped out. Additionally, there is sometimes some ambiguity in converting machine code back to assembly, so the person doing the reverse engineering would have to know what function was actually used in such cases, making the job more complex.

And of course when you're talking disassembling you will get assembly in the end, which is most likely not what the project was written in, and the output of some compiler into assembly is likely not going to be all that readable or pretty without a lot of effort.

>>60631157
it is called reverse engineering, hoe do you think cracked software works? Compilation from source -> Machine code /ASM is usually not reversible

My laptop came with a tiny 30gb M2 SSD, which is completely useless to me and my Samsung SSD. Is there anything possibly useful or interesting I could use it for?

lol

I have never been able to find a solution to this other than flipping the mouse

>>60631176
>>60631336
Depending on your mouse it might have another device somewhere. My Logitech G700 has something under keyboards that also has to be disabled to prevent mouse waking, you should probably check there if there are any extra "keyboards" that are actually related to mouse functions. Also make sure the bluetooth receiver (if applicable) is also not allowed to wake the computer.

Will I ever find somebody to love /sqt/? Is there even a chance?

I'm a chubby trap, kinda passing. I'm not disfigured or anything, I guess if I lost weight some might even consider me pretty, or at least decent looking. But it's hard, because, every time I'm reminded of my situation, and the fact that I'm unlovable and nobody will ever want me my anxiety levels rise up to 11, and I start binge eating and there goes my diet again. It's probably an eating disorder, developed around when I was 20, but it's either this or committing sudoku. A lot of times I feel like I'm walking in a metaphorical minefield, avoiding this, not doing such, definitely not thinking about that, just to prevent a frenzy.

Yeah, I guess I'm fucked in the head too. I'm terribly recluse, prone to hiding and avoiding people, even friends. Pretty much ever since I was 15 I dreamt about being in a relationship, finding happiness, a family, hoping one day my luck will change. I keep lying to myself that next year will be better, maybe then things will improve, there's no need for suicide just yet, but so far it's been a steady downhill. Thought I hit rock bottom a couple of times, but nope, I find that there's always somewhere lower to sink to.
And there's a lot of feminist propaganda how you don't need a man to be content and all that, but y'know what, fuck that. I lived it for 10 years and it's absolute shit, don't believe it for a moment. It's something salty hypocrite folk tell themselves to feel better about their lives. I could live alone but I don't want to, and never wished to, but it's reality.
Life is garbage. Mine at least. Sorry for ranting.

>>60631325
swap

>>60631137
Everything points to the PSU
try different one, nothing can be done until you test it with different PSU
and see if all other issues go away

I mean this is like equivalent of opening car motor and seeing leaking duct and wondering if you should maybe replace it.

>>60631325
put into another machine, install a super secure distro for your loli collection.
Experiment with bsd, zfs
use it as backup

>>60631243
I found at least one article stating that you can just desolder the pins from a PGA478 CPU and turn it into a BGA479 here: http://geek-mag.com/posts/184876/. Don't know how you would handle with those SMDs on the bottom of the CPU when soldering it into place though.

I probably wouldn't even bother trying this if you have to ask a question like that, but still, good luck with the project!

>>60631370
Sure, anybody can. It's easier than you think, only issue is you have to actively be looking, and keep your standards and expectations reasonable. Don't expect something to just sort of drop into your lap if you're not even putting any effort into looking for it.

As far as the weight thing, it's a handicap, but I wouldn't consider it a deal breaker. There are a lot of people out there and some will be more or less tolerant of it than others. I easily weighed over 350 pounds when I got into my first serious relationship. Dieting can be hard but main recommendation I can give is to make it a routine, and set it up so you don't have to think about food any more than you need to. When I seriously got into weight loss I made sure to set up all my meals the night before, so I could just grab them without thinking when the time came, and since everything was premade ahead of time it was easy to keep portions under control and make sure everything was balanced nutrition-wise. It's hard to commit yourself and take the first step but if you can make it something automatic and easy then it'll come off before you know it.

Main thing though is that you should stop sitting around waiting for your luck to change, and start taking steps to change the aspects of your life that you don't like, one step at a time. Nothing is going to get better if you just sit around waiting for it to. I think if you're actively feeling like you're making progress though, you'll feel a lot better about your situation in general, even if you've still got a ways to go. Just the fact that you're moving in the right direction goes a long way towards helping that feeling of anxiety and dread all the time.

is assembler "final" language that could be? like the next stage is 01010101 for processor or what?

>>60631651
Assembly is basically one level removed from the binary machine code that is interpreted directly by the processor. For the most part one line of assembly can be directly converted into one line of machine code (disregarding some meta commands), unlike higher level languages where a lot of translation and manipulation has to happen first.

>>60631176
Check your BIOS wake-up settings and disable everything USB related

>>60631368
incidentally I do have a G700, however all devices I can find under keyboards are called 'HID-keyboard', and none but one have any connection to logitech stuff, and that one doesn't have the wake-from-sleep-settings.

I actually do want my keyboard (a steelseries) to be ble to wake the PC from sleep..

>>60632078
Well what I did was just disabled them all and then re-enabled one at a time until my actual keyboard was the one that was capable of waking my computer. I mean I don't really often wake my computer from anything besides my keyboard, unless you count wake-on-lan.

Is it bad to put my computer to sleep every night rather than turning it off fully?

>>60632104
my man, that did it.
I disabled all of them and it stopped, and the first one i re-enabled seemed to be my actual kb, so fuck everything else.

On ubuntu here, how do I see recently DOWNLOADED files? I have firefox browser set to "Choose where to download", then I downloaded a file off the internet and it finished..........and that's it. Nothing popped up, checked /Downloads and /Desktop but nothing, even with hidden files on and accessing as root.

Downloaded again, checked disk drive space and yup, it downloaded alright, but fuck knows where, any command to show them? Obviously I haven't accessed the files so "Recent Files" doesn't show.

Can the 360 controller do bluetooth?
wireless connection would be most realistic imo.

I bought a type C to HDMI for my HTC10, but I didn't get the converter, I just got the cable. When I plug it into an output device it doesn't mirror my phone, it just stays on "No input" and doesn't recognize the phone. Anyone have any solutions? I was hoping I didn't need to buy the converter box, and the cable would just direct connect, but I can't for the life of me get it to work. Any tips or help would be appreciated.

What career has a better outlook? Front end development or data analyst? Assuming pay is the same in the beginning.

pfsense firewall, or general firewalls

there are firewall rules
they apply to interface
tutorials say they apply only on incoming traffic

and it seems to work with default setting where LAN is allowed traffic
and WAN is blocked, so from WAN you cant do shit

but got me thinking, I do ping command
if theres no rule on WAN to allow traffic in how come the reply comes?

Or same for a webpage, data are obviously allowed in
so logical thing to assume is that if its reply for request its allowed or some shit like that, when its established connection
but isnt that bit of a weakness, a hole?
Like you dont have full control over the interface if stuff can get in williy-nilly when request through LAN goes in

>>60632665
>tutorials say they apply only on incoming traffic
You have clearly never touched any firewall software.


Please discard what you think you know and look up how to actually setup a firewall.
A good starter is the simple statefull firewall on the arch wiki

So I put a new PSU in it, and it still does the same thing in OCCT; works for 20 seconds, then the framerate dies. I haven't been able to get it to crash or lock up yet with the new PSU though, so I guess that's the next task.

I don't think it is a software/OS thing, because it does it on Windows, and yesterday I was running CSGO on Linux and it was locking up in that too occasionally.

The most infuriating this is that it's intermittent. Some days it works just fine, some days I literally can't run a game for more than 5 seconds before it shuts down.

Anyone think what else it might be? Maybe I'm putting too much thought into the OCCT test thing. Can someone run it and see if they get the same pattern I get? High initial FPS, sudden dip, it recovers to 80%-ish of what it was initially but is wildly inconsistent. then.

should i just make an init job for ntfsfix when dualbooting or is it deteriatory for the hard drives

What determines which seeds and peers i connect to? this torrent shows 230 seeds available but im only connected to 30. what allows 30 connections vs 200 vs 10

>>60634160
ntfsfix is NOT an fsck tool, it's only for working around some problems
if you find yourself running it often, something else is the problem

>>60634190
You were announced to 30 of them,and they decided to connect to you.

Those 200 have to want to connect to you,they may already be seeding to 100 peers.It all depends on how the client was configured.

>>60634228
windows is flagging your non-windows disks as being in hibernate status?

if you're just clearing hibernate status from a non-windows disk, that should be fine

>>60634242
well they could be just dying as well, i dunno. all i know is that after i turn win10 on i need to ntfsfix the hds if i want to use them

Got a bit of a problem here.
My laptop's hard drive isn't showing up when I try to install any operating systems.
I had a semi-working install of Arch but I couldn't access wifi-menu because I'd forgotten to download an essential package in the initial setup. Figured I'd just reinstall the OS since it would be less effort than fucking around and setting up a mobile hotspot on my phone for a wired connection, but when I restarted the PC and booted into my USB for Arch's setup, I couldn't find the SSD. It's disappeared. What's weird to me is that I could still unplug the USB and boot into the broken Arch installation.

I think Fallout 4 is bigger than that. Also your graphics card is quite weak, but yes, this is a pretty failsafe rig unless something new is released.

>>60635361
I'd probably use the SSD for the OS and critical documents only. Everything else, especially game and user data, would be stored on the hard drive.
I'm not all that concerned about new releases in the game market, I just want to make sure my rig is able to handle most games that are currently out, and I'm using Fallout 4 as a benchmark for that purpose.

Also, I recently had a bad experience with an HDD in my old laptop that failed after only a year and a half of use, was that just a defective product or a stroke of bad luck? For this new rig I'm trying to set up, the hard drive's lifespan is an equally important consideration alongside gaming performance.

Can anyone point to me a good guide on doing automated backups with encryption? Ideally i would like something like rsync so my script will only update changed/new data, and encrypt on the fly using a public key. although i think thats kinda impossible since encryption changes so much of the data theres no way to tell whats been changed by the user in already existing files. my other option is an encrypted backup partition, which will work but i dont want the partition mounted when the script isnt running(currently my script mounts and unmounts the drive when it starts/finishes), this means i have to the password/key in/accessible by the script which im not crazy about. Any ideas?

The only game I play online is Rocket League on XB1S. But most of the time I play, every minute or so it will give the disconnect symbol on and off for about 15-20 seconds and everything is jumping all over the place from the issue.

Is there a good internet test I can do that goes for about 5-10 mins and will tell me if it's something with my ISP/modem? I have a suspicion it may be my Xbox. Or is there some other way to find out short of buying a new game?

Tks

>>60636193
ping google when you you are playing, see if the response time increases or stops when you see problems on the xbox. if you see problems with the ping, then likely its the internet connection, whether thats the modem or your ISP youd have to do more digging but at least it would rule out the xbox

Recently I bought some CAT6 to run to my desktop so I could stop having to use painfully slow wifi.

I tested the cable when it arrived and everything worked perfectly but after running it I just can't seem to get it to work. I had to cut the connectors off to fit them through the holes I drilled to run the cable and crimped them afterwards. I think at first I fucked up the wire order but after redoing it stuff has gotten really weird. I am able to ping my router when I statically add an in-range IP but sometimes speeds are crazy slow or dropped packets, and sometimes it pings as it normally should. Despite this I can't access the router setup page let alone the internet. If I leave it to dynamic I don't hit the network at all. Plugging the cable into an old laptop it doesn't even show up (possibly because it's CAT6).

I'm really at a loss, the cable shouldn't be damaged and I've quadruple checked my crimps at this point.

no open a command prompt and rung the ping command

>>60637534
Have you tried shrinking the disk on the guest OS side? Should be easy to do on Linux, and assuming you have a dynamic disk, the disk shouldn't grow.

>>60637734
What kind of temps are we talking? And there's not really throttling for SSDs.

Yes but how would I do this? I know you need the VB Guest Additions to read usb disks from the guest, but I think there's a way to expose a disk to the VM with a clean disk. I remember this from reading on how to boot live usbs on a VM from a usb attached to the host.

Crossposting.

On two occasions now it has black screened under load, then you turn it off and on again and it doesn't even show the motherboard splash screen or anything. Strangely, it is getting into Windows, because I can hear the startup sounds and can hear it log in when I type my password. On both occasions it was 'fixed' by simply removing the GPU from the system, turning the system on, turning it off, then reinstalling the GPU, then it works again.

So GPU or PSU? Maybe both?

>Its a completely new build, except I kept the hard drives from my old computer.
as in this is a fresh install or windows, or you're trying to boot the old windows?

if it's the former, set your BIOS to use IDE/legacy disk access, then install the drivers for your sata controller
if it's the latter, put the disk back into the old machine and run "sysprep /generalize", THEN put it in the new machine

Windows was installed on a shitty 500gb hdd, however I have a 2TB hdd that I swapped over without doing sysprep. Will that one be affected?

>>60638321
keep in mind you can run sysprep on the new hardware, IF you can get into windows
try settings your BIOS to use IDE instead of AHCI, that's usually a workaround for 7B
boot into safe mode if you can, then run sysprep /generalize

if you can get this far, install your AHCI/SATA drivers, then re-enable it in the BIOS
then you're good to go

>>60638357
If you are going to install windows on the 500GB HDD only, then the 2TB wont be affected, you can disconnect it if it worries you tho.

>>60638371
I think I will go for a fresh install as I need to install win7 onto my SSD anyway.
>>60638385
If I start to reinstall windows on my SSD moving it from my 500gb HDD, will I be able to have access to my files still? (I am probs gonna re-install windows in a few secs, just haven't done stuff like this before much, first build)

if you want to install windows onto a new disk, then just have ONLY that disk plugged in during install
no room for error is best room for error.

>>60638412
Windows installer only will touch the drive you tell it to install windows, if it detects a windows install it wont touch any files.
If your SSD is empty it will install windows only in the SSD.

To make you feel safer.
Only connect the drive where you will install windows, in this case, only your new SSD and not your 500GB and 2TB HDDs.

ISP routing to Japan guy here. I found out that ATT, Verizon, and sprint has access to the internet lines that run straight to Japan but its not on my island. The cable is on a line that connects a few islands down. Using my ATT internet it routes to LA first then back to Japan which is unnecessary. You guys said its impossible to choose the route it takes right? Just double checking considering technically I could have access to this line considering my ISP uses it. Its just the route it takes to ping to Japan is unnecessary and if I could just point it straight to the island below me straight to Japan I could shave off 100ms ping easily.

windows also has a tendency to place boot partitions/files into disks on a lower port number than the one you selected
like, if you pick a disk on sata1, but there's unallocated space on a disk on sata0, it might just make one or two partitions on the disk on sata0 by itself, which really complicates things if you need to change/remove the disk on sata0

>>60638468
-- what i personally like to do, is install windows through a VM, with a real disk attached
i also pre-make a single, whole-disk ntfs partition to install to
this forces windows to put everything into that one partition, which is much easier to work with if i need to move it around later on

I searched a bit more and it seems the solution might be a simple one, I created and attached a fixed size disk to the current VM I want to shrink. It shows on windows correctly. What im planning to do is boot from an ISO that allows me to clone the first vdi to the second one, all inside the VM. But its been years since I last cloned a drive so can anyone recommend a good and simple iso tool to clone hard drives?

check your boot order in your BIOS, or find out which key triggers the boot menu, and hit that to select your disc drive

noscript is breaking random image urls for me, how can I fix this?
for example, clicking on an image will load it just fine
ie: https://i.4cdn.org/g/1496039295361.png

but this image my friend linked on teamspeak isn't loading at all: https://i.4cdn.org/tv/1496026050035.gif

I have no fucking clue how to fix it, all I know is that it's noscript's fault

I don't want to disable noscript because that shit is too nice to have

Bumping question pls

What is the cheapest-reliable seedbox I can find for releasing torrents?

>>60638590
Upgrade to uMatrix.

>>60638581
I can change the boot order? Should I set the DRW to no.1?

>>60638647
yes

>>60638626
whats the biggest difference? also I've heard peeps talk about using ublock or some shit as well, but adblock always had my back, should I switch that too?

>>60638654
>From adblock to uBlock Origin
Yes, uBlock not only hide stuff but also blocks it from starting, it works pretty much as a host list and an adblocker.

>From Noscript to uMatrix.
uMatrix is a upgrade to noscript but if you dont want to its fine.

>>60638652
I'm such a dickhead. It's so easy in the bios, I can *literally* point and click at the shit I want.

Thank you so much for walking me through this lads.

>>60638670
well my problem in the first place was with noscript, but I guess I'll just upgrade both, thanks, anon

>>60638684
Remember that uBlock and uBlock Origin are different things, Origin is the one you are looking for.

>>60638691
yeah, I know, thanks
also I found out what the problem was
it wasn't noscript but rather this one greasemonkey script I was using called "AdsBypasser" I looked on github and it's an issue with other people so I just disabled it for now

Question: I have an 8350 and when I overclock to 4.3Ghz I gain FPS on games, but the moment I overclock to 4.4Ghz my FPS goes to as if I was underclocked to 3GHz. It hits 63C at 4.4Ghz so I have no idea what's going on. Is my voltage too low? Cooling inadequate?

Recently I started playing HOTS to pass time since I got home from a vacation of 5 weeks. I was playing only one hero the entire time. After playing, I went onto youtube and I looked at my recommended videos and one of the videos was a "how to build x character" for HOTS and it was the hero I played as. Can the BATTLE.net client report such information?

>>60638944
did you look up the character on icyveins/hotslogs? or have you only played hots without ever searching anything related to it?

Is there any way to block pop-ups that bring up notifications or try and make you add extensions?

Right now I'm using uBlock origin and the Anti-adblock script for Tampermonkey.

Noscript on firefox is infinitely superior to scriptsafe and I haven't touched it for a while on chrome. I'd stay on firefox but I have a few other issues on ff that keep me on Chrome.

is it normal for my laptop to idle around 50c and play games at 80c?

>>60638955
I never looked it up

>>60639044
Yes

Laptops are infamous for heat issues

>They're really compact
>Some skimp on or have bad heat dissipation design
>People leave them on their beds blocking exhausts and make a personal sauna for it
>Thermal paste is super inconvenient to re-apply

50c idle and 80c on load is definitely too hot and would make your CPU throttle itself down for sure.

Most laptops I've opened up when I fixed computers as a part-time job have the issue where thermal paste is seeping out the sides and isn't on the CPU heatplate. It's just a hassle to disassemble some laptops just to do it.

>>60639185
I overclocked my old laptop CPU from 1.5GHz to 3.6GHz and the CPU temp went to 68C at full load. Only problem was the GPU was at 98C for some reason.

>>60639205

wew lad. You're supposed to plug a monitor into it, not boil water

in what sense is coreboot "free"?

If you OC'd an old laptop it might be sharing a heatsink with two heatpipes for each unit like in my pic.

It's completely normal for GPUs to run hotter than the CPU and they're designed that way, but the already hot GPU can't get rid of heat because the CPU is making the heatsink hot as hell.

At least that's what I think

how the fuck do i configure ublock origin so it's okay with 4chan.org/adv/ and 4cdn.org/adv/

Reviving from page 8.

I tried googling this, but its damn hard when I dont really know what to search for.

I have two windows 10 computers who in the past couple of days have shown some strange behavior. At totally random times a blank windows appears and disappears in less than a second at total random times. What is most annoying is that if I am playing a game, the flashing windows has priority so any full screen program is minimized.

Both computers are on a different network, they did not have any new applications or drivers installed before they started showing the flashing window. My guess is a windows update doing some strange things, because that is the only thing that has been installed in the meantime.

uBlock origin should be enough, are you using only the stock filter lists? did you activated the others?

I want to ftp into a server to copy some files but I can't seem to see all the directories.

With putty everything works but with ftp I'm locked to certain directories? Using windows to access a linux based server.

directory I want to access:
/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/

In ftp /share is hidden.

I'm using WINSCP ftp client. I can enable hidden files but not folders?
