I'll preface this with saying I'm a student.
What I wanted costs about $540, and I have $30.
Someone an hour drive away from here is looking at buying my laptop for her kid for about $250.
Should I just sell my mATX G4560 system for $300 (worth about $450 currently on retail)? I'd be losing money on it, but it's an upgrade nonetheless.
I feel like I'm being ripped off living in this dorm. Could just go live with the parents while in college, and have cheaper living arrangement, if not free.
Nobody in my area needs their lawns mowed or dogs walked, and there's not a lot of options around for proper work.

I've considered maybe I should replace the old thermal pads and put new ones. Problem is I don't know the right thickness. Could I buy thinner ones and stack them or something? There's 0,5mm, 1mm pads, I have no idea here.

Ok, so I have a pretty solid understanding of Windows, but I can't figure out why my laptop has been freezing randomly since I clean installed Win 7. It was fine before the wipe. The only thing I've put on it are manually downloaded windows updates (that work fine on other PCs), plus two drivers. Literally nothing else. I ran through the entire install process again and had the same problem. Made it halfway through ninite downloading the first program and froze again. The ISO is verified (intel usb 3.0 drivers inserted) and I've scanned the HDD/Ram to oblivion.

Any suggestions on how to tackle this would be great

So can I run an Ethernet cable next to power cables? I've been reading extremely conflicting information ranging from "you'll be fine" to "keep them like 10'' apart" to "what the fuck are you doing, you won't get any signal like that".

Distance about 40 meters, I want to bring the wonders of technology into a shed/summer house thingy. I'll likely be spending quite a bit of time there, so I want both good speed and small latency. What should I know? I.e. do I need a special shielded cable, or should I keep it about 10'' away from power, or both, or what?

>>61520882
yeah it just has a fancy watercooler

>>61520882
Basically,
Watercooling isn't worth it for what you have to do in order to maintain and "look after it"

>>61520883
>Distance about 40 meters
this is your real problem. Twisted pair ethernet is 30m max.
Consider investing in optical so you don't have to worry about length or putting it next to the powerline.

>>61520895
So it has an inbuilt watercooler ?

>>61520882
Yeah the gpu will be the same. The cooler is the main difference (as you can clearly see, this one is watercooled), so the factory clocks (base and boost, both gpu and memory) are likely to be higher, plus you'll be able to overclock better.
When distributers (like Gigabyte) add this fancy stuff they also tend to pick out the better chips, while the worse ones (that will overclock poorly) will go to less fancy ones.

>>61520909
Oh. I thought it was like 100m max.

I'm a bit of a retard at this so bear with me. Can I just buy this optical cable and use it like any other ethernet cable, or are there any special considerations (e.g. adapters, or "don't bend it", or stuff)? And how much should I expect to spend?

>what's that?
Do not use tor.

>>61521012
Alright, nice. Do you know how effective the shielding is? Like, if I get shielded, can it just lie right next to the power, or should I still separate them a bit?

Pls help. I'm wanting to write up a proxy checker script that is fast enough to be worth using that takes a text file of thousands of proxies and checks them all.

What is the BEST most efficient way to tell if a proxy is up and running? I've seen in code snippets some people just try pinging a website that is always up (google.com etc) and if it is returned, it works. Is there a better way?

AWS Polly is good.

My 3 year old r9 290 has been giving me trouble lately (occasional artifacts or game freezes that go away after reseating it) so I'm considering offloading to some miner on eBay for around $200-$250 maybe a little more. Then using that to get a 1060 or a 580x because then even with the current gouging prices it'd be like 200 something for one after the eBay money.

Is this stupid? Should I just wait until prices go down again? Try and RMA the 290 and wait for new cards?

>>61521149
I'm not an expert but this sounds like the best way.

Alternatively you could ping the proxy server itself, but that's less robust because the server machine could be up but something could have gone wrong with the actual proxying.

Or maybe there are some ways to install win xp without touching partitions? (im sure that's impossible.)

>>61520199
Is there a way of re-partitioning your hard drive and installing an os on the new partition without having to format the entire disk?

I am under the impression that to install a second OS to dual boot, you need to format and re-partition the whole drive. But my understanding comes from the 1990's. Can you avoid the formatting and just add new partitions?

Is possible to take subs from a release which doesn't use ordered chapters and add them in a release which use them, without messing with the sync?

>>61521863
Laptopkiller anon here, it interests me.
Maybe it didn't go to sleep properly ave overheat? In which case the mobo got some tiny part desoldered?

>>61522418
Yes, I think most OS installers will give you the option to create a partition on the drive and install the OS there.

>>61522418
You can shrink partitions, opening up unused space, and making a new partition on that space.

>>61522160

Can someone help a /diy/ guy with some basic CMD syntax?

What does c:\ (lowercase) means? Is c:\usbasp a folder named usbasp in the C:\ drive?

I basically don't know where or how should I put the files in order to update the firmware on my usbasp.

Here's a screenshot of me trying pitifully (I just need to do the stuff in the highlighted part)

>>61522243
Well it is damaged and have zeros or garbage from some point in the IDAT chunk and on. Obviously something went wrong when it was downloaded. You can try getting fist ~1.5 MB of this file and feed it to some program or online service that recovers PNG's. (Just google some) With any luck you will have at least part of the image.

>>61522457
>Yes, I think most OS installers will give you the option to create a partition on the drive and install the OS there.

And it won't fuck up the existing install?

I was just gifted a Switch, and I want to plug it on my PC monitor but it doesn't work.

Can I even do that?

I've never used any HDMI device ever, I don't have a flatscreen TV as I only use my computer for everything media related and gaming and don't own recent consoles (other than the Switch now).

There is an HDMI port on my monitor, as well as a DVI and a VGA.

Since you can just dock the Switch and plug it in your TV through HDMI, I thought it'd work on a monitor too.

But when I dock the damn thing and plug it into the monitor, it just doesn't work.

I use the monitor buttons to switch display input to HDMI, the screen goes blank for like 5 seconds and it automatically switches back to DVI.

If I completely unplug my PC from the monitor and put only the Switch, well it's just blank and I can't even access the menu.

That does count as a stupid question, right?

>>61522445
But which part. Everything seemed intact and laptop itself had no reason to overheat. Should check every part whether it has electricity running through any of them. But first I need to find whether it has warranty on.

In order of importance.

>>61522557
No

>>61522568
It should work, I'm doing it right now. The HDMI cable could be broken. Or your monitor might not be able to handle sound over HDMI, though I'd say it should still display something. Or maybe it can't handle the resolution of the switch (try setting it to 720p or something).

>>61522580
You might be able to do that with custom ffmpeg options.

>>61522571
I mean a capacitor or something. Some people claim you can repair it with a heatgun but you most likely need a repair service.

>>61522633
I guess I should get good already and learn to use ffmpeg. All-right, thank you for pointing me in the right direction.

>>61522543
> What does c:\ (lowercase) means? Is c:\usbasp a folder named usbasp in the C:\ drive?
It means a filder or a file with name usbasp on your drive C. Windows treats paths and names case insensitive, so C:\USBASP and c:\usbasp is the same.

It seems there is a typo in that manual. If the firmware file is named atmega8.2011-05-28.hex and it is in c:\usbasp then it probably shold be c:\usbasp\atmega8.2011-05-28.hex in that command.

>>61522621
I tried switching resolutions, it still goes blank and back to DVI.
My monitor is 1080p.

I'll test the cable from my GPU to my monitor to see if it works.

Annoying as shit though.

>>61522732
Can you set the input on the monitor itself? Maybe it's locked to dvi.

what is the best file size/ resolution for website images?

im making a website for a friend and its a photography website so its going to feature quite a lot of images so they need to be high quality but obviously not lag your browser

i have all the raw image files just need to know what to do with resizing

>>61522901
if it's just for previewing purposes, i'd say around 512x512 max for thumbnails, 2048x2048 max for individual previews (fitting in these, after accounting for the image ratio, of course)
use jpeg around 80-90 quality, 100 or png is overkill for previews
if they're not for previewing, then provide links to download the raws, alongside previews, don't put gigantic images right there on the page

Guys I have a problem.

After a shitty blue screen 0x0116 episode with my HD7800 and a driver downgrade to catalyst, 4chanX has been acting up. Pages always load as if I've never been in them before (new reply counter always shows all replies and mentioned posts even though I already saw them/scrolled down to the bottom) and clicking the watch thread button selects and deselects it, making it impossible to watch threads.

I tried reinstalling 4chanX but it didn't work. Any ideas?

>>61523019
Well you can't even use weather/whether correctly so maybe it's time, anon.

>t. a longstanding neet with no future prospects

>>61523181
i've had 4chan X stop remembering what i've seen before, my solution was to clear the hiddenposts, yourposts, and lastreadposts data from its sqlite file

I have a tablet that has a partition in its internal storage.
I usually move apps to it as it counts as SD storage, but now it's acting up. It seems as if it vanished, it flat out stopped being recognized. It had done this before, but it was usually fixed upon rebooting. Now it's not the case though, after the all reboots I go to the storage tab in settings and for a moment it shows up, but it doesn't get past calculating before is vanishes and only the main partition is left.

Is it corrupted? Is it dead? What's going on?

>>61523217

>>61523823
You don't need to do anything. Just understand that the torrent protocol relies on people seeding files, and decide how much you value that file continuing to exist in the torrent swarm.

>>61523823

you can even end your seed with a 0.1 ratio

>>61524185
The type information tells it what operations are valid after you dereference it.

You could use a void*, which does not store any information about what it points to. But you cannot dereference a void* until you cast it to some other kind of pointer.

>>61524185
When you want to use it you will want to dereference the pointer. Think about it - it is the same as why you want to specify that value is a char in the first place.

No. Considering most modern games should double the framerate at least, and aliasing still being a problem it's clear that current games still look kinda bad. And that's ignoring 4k and lighting.

Some people say Linux is hard/difficult to use.
What makes it hard?

>>61524450
You have to write the OS for yourself.

>>61524185
Besides, pointer operations, such
while (*ch) ch++;
wouldn't make sense if you don't know how big is the pointed type in memory. That is:

if you have an address stored in a int* type variable and you increment it, the updated address will be bigger than if it was stored in a char*.

char* would increment by 1B, because that's the size of a char, int* would increment the address by 4B, for the same reason.

There is also the issue of valid operations upon de-referencing

>>61524450
It's more of the "I'm too lazy to learn new things" than the "It's very difficult to learn new things".

>>61524450
what makes it "hard" is that it's different than what they're used to

>>61524450
To do the cool shit you need to use the command line, which requires you to be precise and knowing how to use it since it doesn't really tell you anything unless you tell it the right things. But to just use Ubuntu isn't that difficult, just a bit different but not even that much.

>>61523917
In that case the answer is maybe. It depends on your specific RAM. That is to say, *yours*, not someone else's.
Averages and higher clocked SKUs of similar kits are generally a good indicator of what you might be able to get, but you can never be 100% sure that you can reach those speeds until you try for yourself. Your particular kit might not do it, even if it is most likely that it will.

In short, if you want to be sure that you can "safely" run your RAM at 2933 MHz, you buy a kit that is rated for 2933 MHz or above. Otherwise the only way to find out if your kit can manage it is to simply overclock and stress test it.

I downloaded the package through Debian's site and am now trying to install zfs-dkms 0.6.5.11 through dpkg.

It's currently stuck on "Building initial module for 4.11.0-1-amd64".

Hold my hand, anon.

$800 for a current gen laptop.

I know nothing of Programming. Once knew basic html and php but I guess its all gone now. Yet, want to start programming... Where should I start from?? And any other tips??

What does (max) mean in pseudocode?

How can I navigate on the web with total privacy?

Someone has a chart or something explaining the tools to do that?

Ps: I'm not a criminal I just don't want to give my information to the Jews

>>61526312
It's literally impossible.

>>61526407
It's possible if you don't have any information to share. Get rid of your identity, get off the grid completely.

>>61526424
No, it's not possible to navigate the web and leave no identifying data. Total privacy is impossible on the internet now.

Can anyone recommend a PCIE TV Tuner card that accepts an analogue RF/Aerial cable and actually has windows 10 support?

Been looking at this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WinTV-HVR-1200-Hauppauge-Low-Profile-PCIe-DVB-T-Digital-TV-Tuner-Card-5188-8951/362024728918

>>61526543
but are there something to reduct the exposition?

I use a free VPN and some extensions (privacy badger, https everywhere...)

>>61526640
Nothing that really matters. The Jews already have prediction algorithms to determine where you will be at any given time with high accuracy.

>>61526213
Yeah that failed. Can't even remove the package and install from the repository now.

For some reason, my windows 10 install drive won't detect my M.2 SSD.
The bios detects that the disk is connected, the EZ flash utility can open the file system , but the system claims that nothing is plugged into the m.2 slot, so the drive kind of ghost rides in that it exists but it allegedy isn't plugged into anything. Under NVME settings, I there are no options to change but the drive does appear as being plugged in.
What should I do? I can't get the W10 disk to detect it no matter what, and the fact that the BIOS claims that my M.2 slot is empty does not help. ASUS motherboard, with the newest BIOS update.

>>61526543
What do you not understand in not having an identity?

>>61526803

I had this happen with an OCZ drive. It was bricked.

The fact different things are giving different reports about what state its in and nothing can access the data means things don't look so good. Try a bootable linux USB

>>61527002
Alrighty, I'll try that next.
It was working at first, but after a failed windows install onto the drive it stopped showing up. The bios never reported it plugged into the m2 drive though

I sincerely hope that I don't need to remove it for any reason, if I have to rip up all my water cooling again I'm going to kill myself.

>>61526803
Is it NVMe or SATA M2 SSD?
Boot into Linux and try it.

Sounds bricked honestly.

What the fuck is this "audiopath" shit that appears when I scroll dowm from the top of my tablet? I've owned this thing for a year and the last check for updates was June 28, yet somehow it's the first I've seen this and you can"t just swipe it away.

>>61525299
There's nothing wrong with that SSD. Most Seagate HDDs are good. This is a stupid questions general not stupid answers.

>>61526170
Is there a way I can turn it off though? ((((they)))) can suck my dick.

>>61525025
That game is built in Renpy, so try this:

https://github.com/Shizmob/rpatool

>>61527131
It's probably for wireless speakers/DLNA or something like that. Looks like it's a part of the Quick Settings panel itself.

>>61526136
Can't help you but does usong ddg in Chrome serve any purpose? I'd think they log your search terms under your ip and hardware footprint or whatever anyway, so you would gain nothing.

How do I make a folder of images a pdf??

>>61527179
I guess they removed the quick settings options from the regular settings options, cause when you scroll down you see everything and that's it.

There doesn't seem to be an option for it there after scrolling down a second time to expand it, though, and that "Audio path" bar disappears when you do it. Plugging my headphones in makes it disappear, however plugging them out makes it reappear. Restarting might remove it but if that were the only recourse this would be hell.

What's the advantage or using two routers at home?

>>61527259
If you're on Win10, just select all images, select "Print", and choose "Microsoft Print to PDF" as the printer.

>>61527488
range extender maybe?

I have a question about c++
lets say I have an object A, why can't I modify it it like this:

A.function().

Why do I need to do:
A = A.function().

Is there a way to modify that object just by doing A.function()?

>>61527649
You don't?
Show me some real code

Any reccomended 1-2TB external hard drives for backing up files from my laptop?

>>61527685
Any WD drive, any recent (2016+) Seagate drive.
I have a 2TB WD Elements that I backup my data to once a week.

any plex users here? wondering if it re-enocdes 10bit files when streaming

>>61527649

Because you've implemented OOP incorrectly.

I don't know the C++ syntax

but here's a psudocode example


class A
{
private int myVar = 0;

private function myFunction()
{
myVar = Myvar + 10;
}

private function getMyVar()
{
return myVar;
}


}


myAVariable = new A;

echo myAVariable.getMyVar();
myAVariable.myFunction();
echo myAVariable.getMyVar();

> 0
> 10

>>61520199
Uh hi,I'm having a bit of trouble with installing windows or linux for that matter. My dumbass ECS H81H3 doesn't have an F12 boot menu so I have to nuke the HDD everytime I want to install something. Thing is that windows gives me I/O errors ad infinitum when I install it to the main partition. It has no problem making/ moving partitions though for some reason.

And Linux(yes the kernel only) has a problem with my BIOS' way of setting boot priority in a way that it breaks grub and the boot entirely

>>61527939

meh, depending on the language, inside the class it'll be 'this.myVar'

>>61527990
But it does have a boot order, no need to nuke it.

I got this mac for free today and I don't have much experience with these machines. I have 2 questions.
1. Will this machine run smoothly with windows 10 enterprise LTSB?
2. Is it worth adding an SSD?


Got this machine for free because it was having GPU kernel panics due to a failed poly-tantalum capacitor on the mobo that supplies power the the GPU framebuffer. Fixed by installing a patch that lowers GPU performance slightly, although the patch only works under OSX.

I already have 8gb ram that I salvaged from an old laptop. I can also permanently stop the GPU crashes by replacing the cap on the mobo for like $1.50 and then I'd be free to install any OS with no risk of crashes.

Yes but, the thing is that. Linux assigns my USB as /dev/sda/ and so does windows preventing me from doing squat.

I'm using crouton to load Ubuntu Unity Xenial on a Chromebook. Whenever I plug in a usb thumb drive or a SD card I get the error: "Unable to access (Storage of plugged in device) volume" and under it says: "Not authorized to preform operation".

>>61527093
>>61527002

How would I get linux to detect it? Where would I get the drivers?
Also, NVMe.
If it's bricked, then why would it be showing up in the BIOS?

I can't believe going from Debian testing to Debian Buster would actually give me more up to date packages and fix my zfs issues. Damn.

Guess I'll stay with Buster for a while.

>>61527002
>>61527093
Oh, also:
Something can access the data; the reflash utility in the BIOS. The disk is empty, but it opens into its root as a functioning file system instead of hanging like bricked drives often do.

>>61528175
Keep OSX on it, its the only sane OS. Try to get familiar with it at least.

What's the best way to work on remote files in Linux? I've been using the terminal to ssh into my server, but I don't like the latency, and I want to use my preconfigured Vim setup.

>>61528558

What do I do when Apple stops updating it for this machine?

This is the oldest macbook they support right now.

>>61528604
do one of these
>leave it since its fine for around 2 years after support is dropped
>install loonix
By the time that computer stops being supported Windblows won't like it much either

>>61528594
Thats literally the best way.Fix your latency issues
>vim
Copy your settings over

>>61528594
Use rsync to mirror the files you want to work on to your local computer and then sync them back when you're done editing. Unless it's just one or two things. In which case I recommend you stop being a faggot and deal with the latency.
