Randomly / sometimes my c/c++ programs do end by themselves, they do execute everything I told them to execute but the return in main().
[ The chances are even worse when I use exit(x) ]

This turns running the "make" command on projects (gcc, libcurl...) that compile and run "checking programs" impossible to build: feels like I have to flip a coin 50 times and get 50 tails in a row.

What the fuck could be causing this? [ I'm using Mingw-w64 on Windows (of course) ]

I tried to update the BIOS on my chinkpad today, and it failed spectacularly. Pic related is where it got stuck. Luckily all I had to do was reboot, since the flash utility stalled before it could do any real damage.

The only problem was, the flash utility disabled the power button. So my choices were either to let the battery run down, or yank the battery while the laptop was still running. I decided to run down the battery.

Did I do the right thing? I figured that yanking the battery would probably damage the computer.

I get an error when I write this:
void func(int two){ std::cout << two << std::endl; }

template <typename Method, typename... Args>
decltype(auto) get_wrapped(Method&& method, Args&&... args)
{
return std:bind(
[](Method&& m, Args&&... as){}
std::forward<Method>(method),
std::forward<Args(args)...);
}
int main()
{
auto f = get_wrapped(func, 18);
}

but no errors when i write this:
void func(int two){ std::cout << two << std::endl; }

template <typename Method, typename... Args>
decltype(auto) get_wrapped(auto&& method, auto&&... args)
{
return std:bind(
[](Method&& m, Args&&... as){}
std::forward<Method>(method),
std::forward<Args(args)...);
}
int main()
{
auto f = get_wrapped(func, 18);
f();
}

The problem is that I want to move the objects into the lambda, and the latter (despite being auto&&) will only grab references whereas the former does not compile.
Why is this happening? How can I move those variables into the lambda?
Note that if I don't call the function, no errors occur.

So I'm currently trying to set up an emulator box. I had previously put together some old parts into a system (AMD Athlon 64 x2 3800+, 2GB DDR2 RAM, 9800GT), but put a hold on that when a coworker gave me her old Inspiron 546s that had stopped working (I got it working again) that has an AMD Phenom X3 8450E and 8GB DDR2 RAM. Initially I was thinking of taking the MoBo, CPU, RAM, and HDD out of the Dell and putting it in the case I had used in the computer I had put together, then using the more powerful PSU and the 9800GT I had to make it a bit more powerful, but after comparing the two online I'm not sure if it's worth it.

Should I swap the whole PC or should I just take the RAM and keep the rest of the Dell intact (give it the 2GB of RAM from the other computer)?

(I think -f 251 is the opus)

Sometimes -f 22 will have 192k or 256k AAC and that will be the highest (opus is always 128), but there's no way that I know of to auto-detect if it's higher than 128k, so you'd have to download -f 22 and check.

Could be nothing. Could be the same thing slightly downclocked. Could be a totally gimped version. Could even be a downclocked higher version. (I think there was an OEM GTX 650 that was actually a 660? Don't quote me on the model but I know there was something)

Because the 60's tier is never a raging powerhouse to begin with, and we've made 3 huge generational leaps since then. That card is wasted by the bottom tier shit that's put out now.

>>61285287
Well the one bench I can find shows it 5% slower.
The regular 660 has asymmetric memory so the last 512MB is only on a 64 bit bus, meaning it might as well not be there, so for memory size they're essentially the same. OEM 660 should overclock better.

Can you recommend some model? AMD Radeon RX 460 surely can't be one of them, although it has 2GB, the other specs are much worse for the same price, pic related.

Even the GT 630 I use now has 2GB RAM but it still sucks, that's why I'm upgrading.

>>61285350

I don't know much about symmetry but if it costs half the price, can I assume OEM is the better choice?

(270 and 270X's are just rebranded 7870's)

GTX 660 is around 7850 level. You can pick those up in the States for $50.
>>
>>61285350
Well European pricing is hell, so I don't know exactly how much they're gouging him for each card

>>61285407
The 460 will beat the 660 handily. You're comparing apples and oranges with those specs. Like trying to say an AMD processor is more powerful because it's clocked higher than its intel counterpart. Also Nvida drivers don't age well. You're also overestimating the value of more ram. At your resolution and tier of card it's unlikely to be the thing that bottlenecks you, unless you're playing a game with really poor memory optimization, like shitty console ports.

>>
>GTX 660 is around 7850 level. You can pick those up in the States for $50.
I'll check the 7850 and 7870 prices then.

>>61285474
>The 460 will beat the 660 handily.
But isn't that at lower resolutions? I wanted a GPU that can support at least 1080p and maybe more, since I plan to get a new screen eventually in the future.
I'm currently playing games on mid quality settings at 1080p without FPS issues on GT 630 and it's not even a high-end GPU.
Unless I'm reading wrong, the 460 supports 1050p max.
>>
>>61285515
You misunderstand. It will "support" any resolution you damn well please. iGPUs can run 4k. They wont do it WELL, at least not for gaming, but you can turn them up to that setting. When the 660 was released, it was expected to do ok at 1080p for the games released at that time. The 460 is estimated to do well at 1050p for THIS generation of games, which are much more demanding than what was available back then.

>>
>>61285704
Sure. The 5xx card are only about 10% faster than the 4xx for the most part, so I wouldn't spend much more for them. But there was a huge generational gap before those, so I would be real hesitant about going back farther unless you're looking at a much higher tier for the price. Same goes for Nvidia and the pre-10xx cards. 2016 was an abnormally big leap.

How do I start programming for Android? Basically, I want to make an app just for myself that will simply reverse the colors on screen. It would effectively force a sort of "night mode" in apps that natively only have a white background, or in white mobile websites. I'd later add more features like automatic toggling based on screen contents, time and screen content hysteresis etc., but the basic idea is reversing the displayed colors.
How do I do that? What Android programming tutorials should I use? What should I look out for? I've had some prior experience with C++, but I'm completly fine with learning another language.

Why do all the office chairs I tried wiggle when you're trying to sit perfectly straight? When you're not leaned against the back of the chair or not leaned forward, you can slightly wiggle the chair base in all directions.
Pic related is how I imagine it working, so when you're trying to sit straight, the chair seat is standing on the rod and has room to wiggle in all the directions because the hole in the seat is thicker than the rod. But when you lean against the back, the seat is also fixed against one side and doesn't wiggle anymore.

Is this how it works or are all the chairs I've tried fucked? This shit pisses me off

apparently living under a rock for the past decade here, have been searching in every "for dummies" source I could find but no luck in understanding what those crypto currency things actually are or how that, what sounds to be an underground system works or what kind of people are behind it.

first things first, all I understood was a man under a jap nickname came up with an idea of an unauthorized form of electronic currency. is that it? does that mean that one person or group, whoever they are, donated the entire world billions worth of "invented" currency in return of solving his algorithm problems? I'm lost.

money has value because people accept it.
A $100 note is just paper but it is worth a xiomi redmi because people consider $100 to be worth that.
in the same bitcoin has value because people exchange it for goods
it can't be double spent (which is a property of money).
sure you can fork bitcoin into bitcoin2 but its useless because no one will accept it.
thats the simplest way I can think of it.
just google "bitcoin whitepaper"

bitcoin doesn't solve any useful algorithm, the algo solvers (who basically try to sha256(sha256(transactions + random guess)) below a certain number is what secures the network. you get rewarded (currently 12.5 bitcoins) for "solving" every 10 mins.

the thing about bitcoin is its deflation rate is set in stone.
the current digital banking system can censor transactions. like they banned sending money to wikileaks once. they can lend your money to their friends (indian banks to vijay mallya) even though they know the loan wont be repayed. then they get bailed by your tax money.
the current system can change rates at will. the governments can mint currencies at their own rate - venezuela for example (bitcoin has fixed rate which cannot be changed).

tldr : bitcoin is a decentralized version of current banking system. a monetry system which doesn't require you to trust your government to not f*** up your money.
one main con of bitcoin is that it works as only as long as 51% of miners are honest
(there are other cons too, thats why bitcoin isn't yet being widely used
>>
>>61287202
me sending bitcoins to you is an transaction.
transactions are grouped into blocks every 10 minutes(approx time, can vary). so the transactions in the last 10 minutes is put into a block. then the next 10 minutes to another block.
watch it live here : https://blockchain.info/blocks (feel free to click a block to see the transactions it cointains).

in my understanding, decentralized means the governments does not have control but those who invented it DO have control on it, dont they? are "they" the ones who decided what the deflation rate should be and what the maximum amount that can be distributed to people is and in what frequency (10 mins)?

what do you mean by honesty of miners? it appeared the system was only introduced since it was the perfect and flawless replacement for our current banking system, isnt it?

I still dont get what the people are actually solving, or whether that algorithms being solved have anything to do with the security algorithm of the bitcoin system itself.

read the whitepaper.
about the decentralization question : the founders can't change any variables.
about who gets generated bitcoin : people who invested money to "secure" the network.
>what does secure mean in this context
the first vid should explain it
miners have an incentive to be honest (honest as in not censoring transactions, sticking to the set in stone rules) - if they are not honest, the price of bitcoin goes down. miners get paid in bitcoins. so if they are dishonest they will lose a lot of money (and there equipment designed for ((what happnens in the youtube video)) will be worthless.

Download a new ISO that works with dazloader and install it in a new partition, then gradually move all your stuff to the fresh OS, when you're running out of space you can shrink the old partition from the windows partition manager (write "partition" in start menu search bar, it's the first result) till everything is done and then delete it from the fresh OS partition manager, you can watch some youtube guide if you aren't sure about what you're doing.

Your player may be out of date since you should have no issues with that build.
Though what's the deal with your temps?
>>
>>61287767
It compensates for input lag.
copy paste :
I researched this topic not too long ago and you pretty much hit the nail on the head. Game mode on televisions eliminates the post processing of video signals which cleans up the video feed in exchange for a faster response time on the video feed. Meaning the picture looks less pretty but it'll be displayed in a faster/more accurate way as it was intended which on timing based games like rock band or guitar hero means everything.
>>
>>61287767
It reduces the input delay, often by reducing the processing done by the TV to make the video look more "vivid" or whatever
Sometimes also reduces the resolution in cheaper TVs

A Matte IPS display and Glossy IPS display have similar quality, and all those colors and better contrast on the Glossy are lost if you're viewing the TV in a bright room with windows or lights.

Look up the CPU and check which socket it has/uses. Then look up the mobo and see which socket it has. If both are the same then yes, else, no.

KMSpico thing runs in intervals to tell Windows its activated or something like that. You're not blocking/preventing it from running, are you? If that's not it then perhaps install it the way the installgentoo wiki tells to. That worked great for me.

You know how when you install a Linux distro with a pre-configured and themed DE out of the box, it always looks really smooth and polished and different from the DE if you download it on its own? Particularly with things like XFCE? You download Manjaro/XFCE and it looks awesome, but you download XFCE and install manually to an existing Linux installation and it looks like dogshit?

How do they do that? How do you learn to really configure and tweak your DE that well without learning to fucking code? I've tried to research it on my own but all the advice either requires proficiency in at least 2 scripting languages, or is outdated by like 3 years.

Alright. I have a proprietary heatsink that latches over the CPU, and it's loose at where the heatsink is holding on at the shroud. Replacing the heatsink with another one is entirely out of the question. If I fill that in with paper, it will be tight and not wiggle, however paper is flammable, and last time I was suggested to instead use a sponge. See pic related as a reference. Would that be better?

I'm about to make some DMT for the first time. Might fuck it up, but the material only needs to be bought once and the precursor chemicals and plants are very cheap so I'll have a few swings at it if I miss.

My question is whether or not I can vaporize it in a typical, cheap vape pen. Pic related is the vape pen I have along with the atomizer. I was thinking I could take a very tiny speck of cannabis wax and use it as "glue" to keep the crystal in place on the coil long enough for it to melt, at which point I imagine (if I keep it relatively centered and make micro adjustments if I notice it bubbling off to one side or the other) that most of it will vaporize on the coil and much of it will be absorbed into the wick.

>pic related; does this seem like a plausible delivery system for smoking DMT?

I'm trying to use the external USB audio driver for the HyperX Cloud II headphones but when I close the KDE Audio and Video settings menu it just reverts to my graphics card's HDMI audio, and I'm not even using HDMI. I have the external device above the built-in audio in playback device preferences but the HDMI audio isn't listed there for some reason. The external device still works if I leave the menu open after I click apply but once I close the menu then it reverts to the HDMI audio. See pic related

If I want photos on a tablet (iPad and/or Android) to be wirelessly displayed and cycled through on a non-smart TV (No DLNA, MiraCast, WiDi etc), I assume I'd need some kind of add-on like Roku. Like for a display in a shop to showcase items on sale.

Which would be best suited for this - Roku Streaming Stick, Fire TV Stick or Chromecast?

From looking around it seems a Fire TV stick + Kodi might be what I'm after but I'd like a second opinion.

I found my old PSP 3000 but the battery is dead and I'm pretty sure I can't charge it via USB unless you enable a setting in the OS.

The bottom of the PSP reads DC IN 5V but the only adapter I can find around the house is an adapter for an old 2WIRE router that lists its output as 5,1V =DC 2A

Would this work or will it explode upon plugging it in/fry the PSP?

What is the fastest way to get into the Big Dataā„¢ meme? It seems to be all the rage nowadays and I want me a piece of that tasty cake.

I have a degree in Management Science/Operations Research so I know my way around multi-variate statistics, mathematical optimization and modeling and that sort of stuff. I know how to use R, CPLEX, etc. However for Big Data I heard that you need to learn Hadoop. Do you have any advice for me regarding the matter? Will it be worth the effort to get deeper into Big Data? or is it a waste of time?

I need to upgrade /g/. Do I bite the bullet and go for the 1151 chipset? The would require a new mobo, cpu, and ram (all of which are needed at this point). My only other option would be what, a i7 4970k? As far as I'm aware, the 1150s will be phased out for the newer gen, and I may as well make my computer future proof now by upgrading to current/future chipsets. Thoughts?

I put movies on to a usb stick to play on my tv, and sometimes the subtitles randomly don't work. They are all encoded into the file the same way, as a separate stream.

ffmpeg -i infile.mp4 -i infile.srt -c copy -c:s mov_text outfile.mp4


The subtitles always show up when I play the file on mpv, but sometimes don't show on the tv. Not sure what could cause this, I always use an .srt file, and the final movie is a .mp4 file.
>>
>>61292565
169.254.12.232 is the IP showing up on the ethernet interface, but I'm not able to ssh to it so I assume that's not the actual IP of machine B.
>>
>>61292616
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a copy -vf subtitles=subtitles.srt output.mp4

>>61292653
I assume this burns them in? I do this when it doesn't work, usually with ass=subtitles.ass, but I prefer not to because the first command runs in a few seconds, whereas burning them in means I have to re-encode the whole video.
