I bought a 15 year old CRT for 3 dollars yesterday and it looks pretty good.

Is it worth keeping?

Can someone show me a recursive C implementation of: https://leetcode.com/problems/binary-tree-inorder-traversal/

Here's the starter code they provide:
/**
* Definition for a binary tree node.
* struct TreeNode {
* int val;
* struct TreeNode *left;
* struct TreeNode *right;
* };
*/
/**
* Return an array of size *returnSize.
* Note: The returned array must be malloced, assume caller calls free().
*/

I'm having a lot of trouble understanding how pointers and arrays work in C. Sadly no one online solves these problems in C. I'm trying to learn C and can't get a non-null array to return. I'd really like to see a working solution to help apply to more complex problems.

>>60961427
What's its max resolution? If it's one of the nice ones that can hit 1920x1440+ it's a keeper imo. A really cheap and good alternative to expensive high refresh rate monitors if you're into that stuff, mine could run 1920x1440 @ 75hz or 1600x1200 @ 80-90hz iirc. If you went as low as ~720p you could do 120hz.

What exactly should a beginner sysadmin know?

Buy an OLED by LG and be way happier

does the cable itself matter for USB 3.1, or is it just the device using it?
i.e. if a USB c to c cable is labeled as USB 2.0, is it any different from one labeled USB 3.1?

I doubt any such cable exists.

Since USB-C implies USB 3

So how much natural talent do you actually need for Comp Sci? Or is it all hard work, lots of studying and a ton of discipline?

>>60961719
Well that is weird.

It also specifies 480Mbit/s, which is USB 2.0 speed.
So by the looks of it it's indeed only capable of USB 2.0

When I try to shrink my 600 GB parition by 200 GB in Disk Management it just keeps showing the spinning icon at the cursor and shows no messages or progress in the application at all. How can I check if it is actually shrinking the partition and how long should something like this take?

That's every field.
"Natural talents" that might help include, problem decomposition, visualization ability, patience, and good verbal skills. Good verbal skills gets added because the work of programming is, at its core, explaining exactly what you want done to an idiot savant.

My sister spilled some tea on her ASUS 551c and she threw it out because it's "dead".
It boots up and runs without any problem, but she told me that it's dead 'coz there are two vertical lines on the screen so she doesn't want it.
I took it apart, cleaned it out, replaced the keyboard but I have no idea how to get rid of those lines. Any suggestions?

>>60962296

that's the point of tor, it tunnels everything through an exit node.

Don't hold it upside down/sideways or shake it too much. Those cans are filled with a gas conpressed into a liquid, if it comes out a liquid, or if the pressure in the can drops too fast, it'll absorb as much heat as it can from it's environment while decompressing, and thus feel xold as fuck.

>>60962661
Its a place,normally in memory,that is allocated for programs that need to access data.
So program needs ABCDE
It will read ABC but then buffer DE for later consumption.

I can't connect to Pastebin anymore for some reason. Whenever I try to connect, it gives me a CONNECTION TIMED OUT error.

currently have a 23.8'' 1080p monitor... if i buy a 23.8'' 1440p monitor, should i zoom the text to 75% to give me an accurate representation of that the text size will look like?

>>60964529
1. you did not answer the question if its just the small recovery partition or efi partition or the whole windows
I am guessing small one

you should be able to recover the deleted partition easily

in rescue mode try if theres cfdisk utility, if its there then its

cfdisk /dev/sdX

letter being the disk you want ot deal with

select the empty space after the partition and set it as FAT if it was efi or recovery or some shit

then its back
here they use cfdisk

If it's just source files you need to move around, you might want to consider using Github or one of the other services like it(assuming you don't have/don't want your own VPS). Learning at least the basics of git is something you should do anyway.

How do you guys block popups that open when you click anywhere on a page. I use this streaming site watchseries.do sometimes and I've blocked basically every ad and unnecessary element on the site but I still get these fucking popups (or ones that are very similar) occasionally when I click anywhere on the page. I also get ones that open in a new tab and start making noise for me to download something. It's really irritating so please help me out.

It happens on chrome and firefox whether I'm using ABP or uBlock. I don't have any malware and it happens no matter what device I use.

I assume there is some transparent element over the entire page causing it to happen but I don't know how to block it.

>>60965419
That is a Javascript alert() popup. There's a few ways you can escape it:
- Use NoScript or uMatrix, and whitelist only things you need Javascript in.
- Click OK and let it pop back up a few times. Then a checkbox will appear letting you prevent this page from making any more alerts. Check it and click OK. Now you can close the page normally.
- Ctrl-W usually works even if an alert is up.

I've also seen pages try to trap me with infinite HTTP login prompts, since those don't come with a way to stop the page from making more of them. Ctrl-W still works though.

PowerDVD is the best if you care about menus mostly working.

How might I go about troubleshooting a faulty game cart? I've already ruled out dirty contacts and water/physical damage. I examined the board carefully for anything out of place, though I honestly don't know what I could be looking for (i.e., poor soldering, damaged/blown components, etc) To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure what else could go wrong with a game cart outside of that.

>>60967032
There's really not much in a DS cart, if the contacts are fine and there's no sign of corrosion it's most likely a dead ROM, in which case nothing you can really do.

Getting very hot/humid over here (even at night) so I had to put my PC in sleep mode almost every night this past week or the HDDs (or just the WD Black that keeps topping 55 celcius for some reason) will overheat.

I know that. I normally leave it on all the time but this time the humidity's problematic as far as my HDDs are concerned. The WD Black that seems to overheat more was purchased just last month so it'd suck if THAT broke down. Strangely, the CPU and GPU don't hit orange and red temps.

I started studying for my CCENT certification last week, and I have no IT background. I know that I need to set up a home lab (GNS3 is very cool, but I feel like I need to get physical experience with the equipment).

I know a guy in my town who buys surplus computers and equipment from school systems/business in the area, and re-sells the computers at the flea market. I bought a nice used server from him at Christmas for $250, so I know he's a good vendor. Because these school systems unload all of their electronics onto him, he has ended up with 200 pounds of Cisco routers and switches over the years -- and he wants to sell them to me at a very low price.

The thing is, I'm still very much a noob when it comes to networking, and I don't really know how much of this stuff I need to set up an optimal home lab. How many routers and switches do you need to understand the concepts that will be on the CCENT (and the CCNA)? And which models of Cisco routers/switches should I avoid buying due to obsolescence?

Tl;dr How do I make a home lab to pass the CCENT and CCNA

The ISOCpp Core Guidelines:

Something fun to keep you interested. When you start seeing libraries and things you don't know, look each up specifically. It WILL be time consuming because this is a behemoth of a language to learn, and it takes time to git gud and remember everything.

Bought a brand new GTX 1050ti two days ago since my old GPU I've had for years died suddenly. I use dual monitors with one being connected via DVI and the other HDMI (with DVI to HDMI adapter). The one being hooked up via HDMI is what the computer considers monitor 1 with the DVI being 2. Now, my problem is that when I power on my PC monitor 1 (HDMI) is blank while monitor 2 (DVI) shows the windows startup stuff. The first time I booted the PC with the new GPU this didn't happen but after that it does it every time, is there any way to fix it?

What's the best way to dither a png from 16 bit to 8-bit (per channel) color?

convert -depth 8

works, but imagemagick only has two dither algorithms and from what I've read neither are ideal.
pngquant has a fancy algorithm to palletize to 256 colors but I really don't need to cut down to 256 colors. Just dithering to 8-bit color, and hence 8^3=512 colors is enough.
The issue is just that 10-bit anime screenshots get saved with 16-bit color and often are too big to post even after lossless optimization.

A lot of programming jobs are based on having things to show, not necessarily having a relevant degree. It's never too late to start coding.

Do you have a lot of stats background from psych? If so, you can utilize those skills and learn programming at the same time, ideally putting things on GitHub etc.

As long as you are willing to work hard and be diligent, then you can certainly change into a programming field. Find out what sort of stuff interests you before you go hard into Java or anything.

Example of the issue with just using pngquant.
This is

pngquant --quality 100

. But even specifying 256 colors looks the same.
Imagemagick with depth=8 works alright but the dithering isn't ideal.

So a while back, probably two years ago I pirated my copy of windows 7. After a recent hardware change and driver update somehow my pc started detecting my copy as invalid. Can someone give me a heads up on how to fix this? I can't seem to remember how I did it.

Read the error message. Look at what you have selected.

I'm not sure what you mean. I installed the AutoKMS and clicked the ez activator.

I own a Acer Aspire 3680 & I'm trying to install Windows 10 Lite on it. It seems the issue is caused by the default wifi driver but I can't get the driver I have to install because it doesn't have comparability mode. Does anyone know how I could force it to install the driver I have?

Is 3tb still the largest cheapest tb per $ HDD?

i downloaded a new rainmeter skin and it loads in the top left corner, i can't drag them anywhere else because apparently clicking up there opens up task manager. is there a way to disable the corner shortcuts/load the skin somewhere else?

ive got a gatway and it is connected to another router as an extend. They have separate ssid. it is a weird setup. after upgrading the firmware for the second router, it sometimes drops all connection or it lost internet connection until i reboot it. does it have to do with the lease time? or something else?

I plan on buying a Xiomi Mi Mix.

Would it work on MetroPCS?
Alternatively, I have a MetroPCS SIM card, would it work if I popped my SIM inside?

I have an SQL (mySQL) question.

Say I have a company table and I want to count all the companies based on a status. Companies are placed in groups (1, 2, etc)

select
c.status as description,
count(*) as companyCount
from group_companies gc
join company c on gc.company_id = c.company_id
where gc.group_id = 2
group by c.status;

This will display something like (CSV):

description, companyCount
status1, 45
status2, 56
status3, 78

and so forth.

Inside each company, is a number of products. These products exist in another table that is linked to the company table.

How do I do the join and display the data as below (CSV):

description, companyCount, productCount
status1, 45, 125
status2, 56, 235
status3, 78, 369

Any help appreciated. Still getting a hang of SQL.

Any help here would be very appreciated:

Do you mean Daz Loader? If so yes, I've used wat fix and ran Daz loader. That did nothing. I ran it again then tried the "activate now" button in my settings because apparently that might be needed, but that program just falls apart every time I run it or says the page doesn't exist. I just want to have my goddamn wallpaper back.

If you mean something inside microsoft toolkit, then no. I don't really know what to do with this program really.

I've come into owning an 1st gen iPod touch and I figure it'd do well enough as an music player. My question is hassle-free audio manager I can use to sync music and specifically playlists, other than iTunes? I know Foobar can do it, I just haven't looked into it in years.

>8^3=512 colors
kek, no
that's 8 bits per channel, with 3 channels, so it's 8*3=24 bits

just

convert in.png -dither floydsteinberg -depth 8 out.png

should be fine

can i use 16gb ram on it

>>60972025
Oops, you're right. I was being stupid since it's 8 BITS of color per channel, of course. You're saying Floyd-Steinberg is better than the default, but from what I've read on the imagemagick mailing list neither are ideal dithering methods.
I was hoping for a tool that did something fancier.

>>60972059
all the fancy ones i've seen are for making low colour (256 colour and under) images, as it matters much more for those
also, there's no such thing as an "ideal" dithering method

>>60972082
There's no ideal method but apparently both methods aren't the best.Of course it matters more to going to fewer colors but whenever I'm doing something that degrades the quality of an image I prefer to use the optimal methods.

>>60972083
Yes.

>>60972132
i think you're putting too much thought into this
for just regular, unmodified viewing, even converting from 16bpc to 8bpc without any dither results in barely any visible artifacts

do you even have a >8bpc display? you can't even make a comparison without one

Yes, I have a native 10 bit panel.
I more or less specified the situation in the first post. Basically anime BDs are 8 bit video, but people encode them as 10 bit to get better compression.
Then when I take a screenshot mpv outputs a png with 16 bit color (because there's no such thing as a 10 bit color png). This is too big, especially on 1080p encodes. So I want to dither to 8 bit without causing artifacts.
It's not about being able to tell the difference between 10 bit and 8 bit it's about the best method of dithering for my screenshot collection.

>>60972582
if you don't need a lossless image, why not just use jpeg?

>>60972607
I would prefer a lossless image, but it's too big. I certainly need better than jpg, if only to make subtitles not look like shit. Well ImageMagick's default dither seems to work all right.
I just hoped there was a better method.

I have a 500gb Seagate HDD, it starts up like it should but neither of my PCs will recognize it. What should I do to be able to use it?

Does anyone know how to yank text in vim out to whatever clipboard that works in other applications?

I have something selected in visual mode and I want to be able to paste this in a graphical application, say firefox.
the

trick does not work and neither does

"+y

Currently, the fastest method is to use the mouse, then paste it into a text editor to use block edit to remove the UI elements, then paste it, but there must be a way to do it.
I could also just create a script where I cut the right number of fields out, then pipe it to xclip, but it seems a bit over the top for something I rarely do.

i've discovered that my psu power cable started to melt and smell a lot
it left one of the metal dongle pin things black
i'm going to clean this one with alcohol and cotton but my question is what could cause this?
is it fault of the old cable or the psu?
have to note that i have this psu for like 2 months but it's solid, had to replace the old one because my pc just shutdown leaving a burning smell, but when replacing the psu i saw the cable was just fine

They're innefficient, they're a really huge upfront investment and you only start "earning" money after years. Also, you'd only have power during the day obviously.
