Is keeping CPU/GPU etc temps under 50 degrees C a hard rule or are higher temps acceptable?

Reposting from old thread.

I just updated my system (Manjaro) and suddenly mpv won't open, and I get this error:

mpv: error while loading shared libraries: libbluray.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

recompiling mpv didn't fix it, nor did reinstalling libbluray

Why do web browsers support javascript and nothing else? If you have a program written in any other language how do you display it on the web?

>>61225485
reinstall mpv. that will fix it. libs changed.

It really depends on the model, intel chips run hotter than AMD on average (or do I have that backwards? I think it used to be that way anyways)

The best practice is to RTFM for whatever specific device you are asking about. My CPU/GPU run at 60-75c under load all the time but then again all my hardware is 11+ years old so it might not have much bearing on the situation.

>>61225477
For extended periods 70 for CPU and 80 for GPU

I'm using a variable in Python3 the value of which is given by an imported webpage. How can I parse, say, a consecutive three digit number using the 'in' function from it? Can't use beautifulsoup for unspecified reasons.

First for No

But here's my question. I have a PCPP list with a 7700k and a 1070. With everything else, it will cost about $2220 Canadian with tax included (13%). I was thinking of getting a phone (Galaxy S8 or LG G6). The G6 is about $700-800 Canadian, and the Galaxy S8 is about $1000+ Canadian. Which seems like a better investment? I need a new phone, but I need a nice computer. Help decide.

>>61225504
I have an i5 @ 3.2GHz. I have no idea what the recommended temp is/.

>>61225518
I'm gonna be nice this time and google it for you, but please, RTFM and learn to be resourceful next time.

80C Hot
70C Warm (Heavy Load)
60C Norm

Can someone help me figure out conky? I just installed it for the first time and got a theme that I thought looked neat. I added the theme and it looks messed up. How can I tweak it?

It's the theme called Onsea, and I want it in the lower right corner with a black background and a white outline border, and I want it to display system temperature. How can I accomplish this? What do I add to the conkyrc file? Can someone give me a quick rundown on conky configging? Google hasn't given me any good tutorials.

Pic related is my desktop. I can barely see the conky screen.

I'm looking to a buy a thinkpad, and have the choice of an X230 for $306, or a T440S for $510. Each has an i7, X230: 3520M T440S: 4600U. The other difference is that the X230 has a 240gb SSD, where as the T440S has 128gb. Other than that, they seem to be near identitical. Is the X230 better overall?

When Wi-Fi isn't a option, is using your mobile to connect to 4g and making a hotspot for a pc running tor or tails defeating the purpose? Will it still work?

Every time I try to sync time and date the internet I get the time wrong.

Also the time in the bios keeps changing, I thought it could be that the cmos had died but then I got a second hand laptop, and noticed the same behavior, is it ghosts that are changing the time in the bios or wtf???

Why does it change to a wrong timezone?

For example
>set right time on bios
>initiate windows or linux
>right time, wrong timezone.
>then set the time to sync to the internet, it gives me a wrong time, the one that the wrong timezone should be.
>have to manually adjust timezone and time, every time.

wtf, help, I hope I've made myself clear, I'm really tired but this shit is driving me crazy.

No one is answering because you barely make sense with your question and its lack of context. My best guess is that you are trying to do eg `if pattern in htmlcontent: ...` if that is the case you should look into the regex module since your pattern is apparently not known beforhand.

I have a weird internet problem that seems to be happening because of my PC as I have the same internet on another PC and it works just fine there.
My guess it is something to do with DNS fuckery, but I am not sure. Basically sites load slow the first time I open them. Then everything within the site works fine for a while, but after X amount of time (10 minutes are probably enough) it goes back to being slow the first time. One of the things that didn't happen before is video buffering on youtube the first time I open the video. You can see the circles going in circle for a second.
One of the weirder things it is that the longer the PC is on the bigger the problem gets. In 24 hours it becomes a lot slower to open any page. Youtube videos might not even load and just get the buffering thing until I refresh the page. Sometimes I can get more than a week of the internet working just fine (without turning off my PC). But then I restart it or something and the problem appears. And from there on I can restart a lot and spam ipconfig /flushdns, but nothing works until one day it just disappears again.
And yes, I have tried different versions of the lan drivers.
So is it possible that the motherboard's lan has been fucked and I should get a lan card? Or maybe it is something to do with my ISP? If not, any other solutions?
Please read.

Does the problem still persist when booting a live linux distro? If so, it's not windows.

Are you using the same browser on both machines?

Maybe it's responsible for eating your ram due to bad configurations.

>>61228823
Well, I certainly haven't tried that, because I have no linux installed.
It is a switch and cables. The other PC has another switch connected to this switch on the way. So it can't be the main switch.
I have tried different ports. Actually I haven't tried switching the cable from the switch to the PC, I have a spare or two I can try, but I doubt that would cause such symptoms.

Look up the advertized battery life for your laptop, and subtract 20-30% for marketing bullshit. Or find out from other reviewers whats normal for your model. Plenty of laptops get less than that. You can check powersaving mode windows is on, and see if there's any OEM utilities for power management. If bloatware is wasting resources, you could try a clean install. Or use a lightweight linux distribution. But it sounds like your model just doesn't have killer battery.

But if you think that battery life is about normal, I'll leave it at that, and thanks for your help.

Manjaro is sad because of shit like this making it actually harder to use than Arch. I had a friend recently install Manjaro after months of me trying to talk him out of it. He needed to install the nvidia driver. I told him it was easy, the package is just called nvidia. Not on fucking Manjaro apparently. All the packages had weird extra info in them. I told him I honestly wasn't sure which one he should use, and that Manjaro was just weird. I felt bad, but I definitely warned him. I have even showed him Arch Anywhere on another machine. He wouldn't properly explain why he wanted Manjaro. He never even mentioned ease of installing, and I can't think of why else he installed it.

macbook air, model a1465 (pls no bully, it was a hand-me-down)

can't use the power button to turn it on, nor can i jump it with the power pads. the magsafe light is a solid green/amber.

HOWEVER, when i disconnect the I/O cable, i can turn it on normally. the fan runs at top speed, the magsafe light is ded and usb peripherals are not recognized (duh).

is there any way i can repair this without buying some rinky-dink I/O bridge from alibaba? can i test whether or not it's a problem with the I/O board or just the bridge before?

1% every 5 min is 8.3 hours. 1% every 4 min is 6.6 hours. Although the numbers it tells you near 100% tend to be bullshit. Unless you installed windows yourself, there's probably bloatware. If everything you do is in a browser, then linux cuts out a lot of bullshit with updates and managing software, it's a lot lighter on resources and virtually never gets malware. You might consider a dual boot for when you're trying to stretch your battery. Or shell out $100 on an external battery (if they don't make larger ones for your model).

I have a laptop that I use as my main pc. I currently use it's display, a monitor above it (vga connection?), then hdmi to my tv. I had planned to upgrade to a desktop build, but now that will be 2-3 months way.

Is there a way to add another monitor, so I can stash the laptop under my actual desktop, so I can have more desk space? in other words, close my laptop, store it "keyboard drawer" in my desk, two monitors and keyboard+mouse on desk, but still have hdmi to my tv? The laptop only has the one hdmi and the one vga out....

>>61232948
Documents are easy shit for any OS. If you don't have any specific programs you would need windows for constantly you'd be fine. Honestly if you're not strapped for disk space I'd throw Lubuntu on there just for the fuck of it.

Wifi/screen/processor are the biggest power draws, so cutting back on any of them helps.

All the X220s I see on Ebay don't come with a charge adapter. Would any old adapter do?

hey /g/ recently my computer has been booting very slowly, not just into the os but it usually takes a while for the motherboard screen to even come up at all. I checked and there is no video signal getting to the monitor as well as nothing getting to any of my peripherals. But now it refuses to do anything at all. I turn it on and the fans spin up and then nothing. no signal to the monitor or peripherals. I have let it sit for up to 30 minutes like this and nothing happens. I have already tried clearing the case of dust and reseating the CMOS battery to no avail. Is it a CMOS battery issue? Should I replace it? is it possible that it is the psu? Thanks in advance.

for ext in $exts

You could try switching it on with the case open (it won't overheat if you only switch it on briefly) and looking for lights that come on, or don't come on, on the individual components.

It could also be a RAM issue, I think, but I forget how to fix that.

Otherwise, probably the power supply.

everything lights up normally like it's starting the right way, and all the fans work too. I also tried reseating the RAM and nothing has changed. Does this mean it's the power supply?

Computer needing to 'warm up' is usually bad wet caps on the power supply or motherboard. For anything built in the last decade, wet caps generally don't occupy critical positions except in the power supply.

> Is it a CMOS battery issue?
Probably not. The board should at least be able to get into the BIOS screen with no battery installed. Corrupted CMOS memory can prevent your computer from booting though.

To reset the CMOS memory, disconnect the computer from wall power, remove the battery, and short the motherboard's battery contacts with a screwdriver or whatever for a few seconds.

Got a loaded MacBook Pro that I want to connect to a monitor through one of the higher end USB-C docks.

Are there any docks that allow me to power up the MacBook via the dock? Or will I have to take out the MacBook and open it every time I want to turn it on and off?

I made the switch from Chrome to Vivaldi not too long ago and liked it fine at first. But now the damn thing is taking up half of my computer's memory and freezing randomly. I haven't done anything differently since installing. Wat do?

Use os-prober after you have it installed and setup and let grub find it

Say, this is my first transaction with BTC, I bought the necessary amount, received the address I'm supposed to send my coinz to, but then I had some issues with my wallet where I forgot a PIN mandatory for every transaction, which took me a day to fix.

Is the given address still active? How long does a BTC address last for?

960 EVO or 850 PRO?

>>61239571
Nah. I'm trying chkdsk E: /f /r /x, but I get:
>the type of the file system is exfat
>windows cannot run disk checking on this volume because it is write protected

>>61239589
MX300.

>>61239620
thanks fbi

>>61239573
Addresses exist forever.

>>61239589
Do you need NVMe Speeds(2GB/s) ? 960 EVO.
You dont? 850 Pro.

>>61239640
got it bud

>>61239634
Thanks m8, so, I just send that shit and wait for my confirmation, right?

>>61239684
The 850 Pro will last more because the slower speeds and that its a 3D MLC SSD.
But 960 will last a good amount of time too, we are talking about 8 years+ of rough use.

Dont buy 2D SSDs.

>>61239711
Thanks. I'll grab the 850 pro

Literally one line in autoit would do the job.

>>61240250
Talk to your isp

>>61238772
Nexus 6P is made by Huawei. It's chink shit.

>>61240286
I really don't think that'd work and I'd probably be put on some kind of list just for asking.

>>61240324
>list
Only on a list of being a complete fucking retard.Your isp can give you multiple ip's,.

>>61240358
If you say so, anon. I've never heard of such a thing unless you're a datacenter buying up a range of IP addresses.

Can internet browsing be tracked through a VPN?

>>61240645
it depends

>>61240676
On what?

Why does VeraCrypt require admin privs to run in portable mode? TrueCrypt didn't.

Should I just use PGP? Does it have file-as-disk?

>>61240695
Who's trying to track you, how unique your browsing patterns are, how identifiable your browser is.

>>61238485
upload to virustotal, post results

>>61240746
Device driver. I think you can use it in some file explorer mode though.

>>61240787
wat. Well that's interesting. How the fuck would they be able to get through the vpn in the first place?

>>61240815

Oh fuck, when did Symantec acquire PGP?

I ain't payin' for that shit.

>>61240864
>PGP
>involved with veracrypt
No, TrueCrypt was developed by based Paul.
One of the few pieces of software we're 100% sure isn't backdoored.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Le_Roux
>Le Roux would frequently post angry, sarcastic and offensive messages, including harsh verbal attacks against Australia as well as racist comments.
>Le Roux was known for his racist views, which he expressed in Usenet postings and towards his employees and which is consistent with his 2007 activities in Zimbabwe aimed at giving seized farm land back to white farmers. He did employ numerous Israelis in key positions, although one former call center manager states this was mostly owed to Israelis being the “cheapest, honest, smartest labor that he could find” rather than fondness.
>The day after his arrival, Le Roux signed a proffer agreement, agreeing to plead guilty to these two charges in exchange for immunity against prosecution for any other crimes he might admit to.[3][17] Immediately after, he admitted to arranging or participating in seven murders for which he thus could not be prosecuted.

How can a website detect that you have a certain program running?

>>61241042
User survey.

>>61241196
Is there a way to mask that you have that program running? Or even disable the check for it?

>>61240858
Asking your VPN, that one will depend on how much your privacy cares about your privacy.
Most dont care at all and wont risk themselves.

>>61240858
They don't need to. If you log in to website A as Bob Johnson they don't need your IP to find out who you are. But there are VPNs that don't keep any logs. This doesn't make you 100% safe though. If the FBI gets a bomb threat from someone running Pale Moon on Gentoo with a 1440x2560 screen resolution using vpn provider X with ip X, and someone then connects to facebook or whereever with Pale Moon on Gentoo with the same resolution and the same VPN provider but a different IP it's not very hard either.

Why does my privacy matter if i have nothing to hide?
I know there's a good answer to this, But whenever i ask someone they just tell me to watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcSlowAhvUk&feature=youtu.be
and i'm terrible at paying attention to long speeches.
Can someone give me a summary?

>>61241441
Would you be willing to hand your employer a log of every post you've made on 4chan? Are you willing to make your SSN and credit card numbers public?

What would be a good wifi adapter for a dorm?
>ethernet
Not an option

>>61241722
Long Ethernet cable.
Otherwise depends on the dorm layout and shit around also the router.

Is http://katcr.to/ safe? I heard that a lot of kat replacements were not.

it's the only place thus far that actually seems to offer a torrent download for the HD road to el dorado web DL's, and all the manual downloads everywhere else are either dead or require preimum accounts

>>61241774
torrentproject.se
rarbg.to
thepiratebay.se
btdb.in
btdig.com

>>61241774
No, only Katcr.co.

>>61241735
>long ethernet cable
Am I able to use a long cable that exits my dorm?

My processor overheated... Is this bad?

I hate powerline and now I'm considering a wifi card. What's the general rule to follow when it comes to getting one? Recommendations? Wired directly yo the router is unfortunately not an option

>>61241889
Define overheating.

Overheating for me is 90°C or more.

>>61241996
Like the fan started going really loud and it completely shut off, I opened it up and there's a very slight burnt smell in there but after I waited a few minutes it booted up fine, not sure if this caused any long term damage or what?

>>61242012
If your computer shutoffs is because it hit the emergency thermal shutdown temperature(102°C-104°C).

Let me guess AMD?
Probably you will need to buy a new heatsink fan if this happened tho.
