theres a full time job as a "sales consultant" at a computer shop thats an hour (by bike) away from me. currently a neet and living at home, basically sedentary. should i apply? all the requirements seem to be knowledge of current pc parts, making computer builds and troubleshooting. it also says certs and microsoft certs help. its really unnerving for me when i apply for any job, since even entry level reject me,and the only ones that have hired me in the past have been exploitative or absolutely caustic work environments

So my mic & headphones have been behaving weird so I bought a cheap USB sound card just to rule out my motherboard, however, when I connect it to the USB port and plug in the jacks there's no audio output at all. I verified that the USB card got recognized and when I play sounds the green bars for output volume keep moving but I can't hear anything, how do I troubleshoot it?
Win7 btw.

I got a bunch of mp3 files I downloaded from youtube, but their names follow "album - track # - song title"
Can I use the terminal to remove the first two aspects of each of their names, leaving only the title?

>>61778004
Nevermind, I'm a dumbass and had to push the jacks in harder, it's just a cheap piece of clusmy plastic I was afraid I'd break it. Now onto the white noise issue..

You hang the mouse cable on it so it doesn't limit you on your desk, pretty useless though since after you use your mouse for a bit the cable will shape up nicely anyway.

It's useful for when your mouse cable is located behind and under your desk, so then it would reduce pulling.

>>61778237
Honest response.
Those errors incicate that the HDD marked a sector as suspicious because it could not recover the data from it (even with error correcting techniques) and if it cat read it well in further attempts it will be marked to relocation.

What to know if there is something to do about it? Run spinrite on level 2 (verifies that the disk is readable) to locate the sector and then run in on level 4 (reads contents, writes the -binary-inverted content, reads again, wirites original content again) on the area near to that sector.
I had watched spinrite recovering some of those pending sectors

I want a cheap (200-400€) laptop that doesn't heat up too much with light use and that is completely fanless. Something I could sleep close to. Can you suggest something?

>>61778044
could be drivers, most USB headsets dont have drivers tho so Windows takes care of this:
go to device manager and find the specific headset under the USB controllers, right click it and uninstall, after thats done open the Action dropdown menu and select Scan for Hardware changes, after that you select Update Driver Software. See if that solves it

>>61778631
images designed to get replies on /g/ is technically related though

>>61778652
>clone it
ok
>ie clonezilla
LOL no! Come on mate, I mean no disrespect to >>61778579 but if he/she asked a question in here ot means some level of knowledge lacking.
Im not saying that clonezilla is bad (it isnt) but last time I checked it remains extremely unfliendly towards noobs and even some "seasoned" IT pros
There are similar tools like Macrium reflect and Paragon backup & recovery free that have friendlier interfaces.

>>61778579
So, you need to make sure that your windows OS partition is the same size of the SSD. Why? because most programs wont let you put a, lets say, 250GB partition on a 200GB drive, at least no without passing some hurdles first.
Most computers, specially preassembled computers (dell, lenovo, acer, etc) comes with a sigle partition destined to OS and user data. It makes THEIR work easier but in cases like this could bring problems when you want to backup your files and not all the damn disk or with migrations like your case.
Some advice, DONT di shit to your HDD until you are perfectly sure that all is running well. If you feel that the migration process is too troublesome, ask some IT guy to do it for yourself.

forget visual basic, its shit for transition. c++ or c? there extremely different and neither is a good languarge as a first. if you did however c++ first because it has more high level features. either way both languages require you to learn a lot more about how a computer works if you want to use then effectively. the creator of c++ has a book called the c++ programming language. read it. subsidise it with info relevant to your field.

You can find used Thinkpads in very good condition for cheap
The build quality is arguably the best you can find in a laptop today
They're very resistant and rugged. A drop from your table won't dent it or break the screen
There is lots of spare parts for them out there meaning if you do manage to break something
There is lots of Linux support if you're into that sort of stuff

>>61780011
if it's a new build, just select the SSD as the install device, then when you install programs, select either the SSD or HDD
It's VERY easy to do. Windows will hold your hand though it. When it comes to installing it, you will know which one is which because it will say one drive is 250GB (or whatever capacity your SSD is) and one will be 2TB (or whatever your HDD capacity is)

If you want, when you come to a screen like this, take a picture of it and post it here if you don't know which drive is which

>>61780011
one is a laptop the other is a toplap

only old thinkpad, new ones are all built poorly with flimsy parts.

>>61780011
When you install windows, install it on the smaller drive. When you go to install programs change the C in the install path to a D and they will be installed to the D drive, aka your HDD. Also lookup how to change the location of your downloads/pictures/documents folder to the HDD, its pretty easy

>>61779891
LOL, well played. made my day

>>61780105
but some progams don't give us the choice to install in D or C

>>61780105
make the hdd and extension of c and point all programs to a programmes folder on the hdd.

>>61780066
the linux support is getting worse tho. the gpu driver crashes and says something about a timeout every time i reboot/shutdown/logout. not really a problem but it makes doing those things much slower because i have to wait for the timeout.

>>61780121
Do you have an example?

>>61780121
give me 3 examples. theyre probably tiny anyway

>>61779829
I would suggest buy a new one unless if you are too plebeian to do so, in which case just strip the insulation back, resolder, and wrap with electrical tape.

that only carries 5 volts and maybe 2 or 3 amps at most depending on what device its charging, so its not extremely dangerous to fix or anything

Alright so one folder on my external hard drive won't open. It says 'The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.' Everything else on it appears to work fine and can be opened. I usually back up my stuff on another external every 2 months or so and was planning to at the end of this month, so the files (which are only ~3 weeks old) are lost for now. I've googled and I saw some suggestions to use chkdsk. I guess I'm wondering what caused this, can they be recovered, will this happen to other files, and is the drive going to give out soon?

ill summarise. all modern compiters have hardware backdoors that cant be disabled (includes phones)

secueity cameras are everywhere (obviously)
all data on social media is mined and made into profiles of the users, sold onward
anonymous data can be linked to users with high accuracy
almost everything has an exploit and each time theres a gov leak cyber attacks follow

telegram is open source, read their peivacy policy.

Just unplugged SATA hard drive on my HP thin client, plugged in a different bootable hard drive into the same port, then plugged the original drive into the second port. Booted up into the new drive ok. Unplugged, then restarted, but crashed before Windows logon screen (on old drive). Restarted again, no display output so no BIOS screen, and every fan in the computer immediately ramped up to max speed -- it's very loud, and still going. WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO? HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN?

>>61780801
>Where can I find information about how much survelliance we are under.
Wikileaks, for starters

>How can I avoid it?
you really cant
libre GNU+Linux, libreboot, openrc, VPN, encryption, i2p/ipfs/freenet/tor, dismantle your identifiable online presence (personal social media, youtube, gmail, etc), PGP, physically disable cameras and microphones on your devices and get a "dumbphone", ublock origin, umatrix, only visit ssl/tls supported sites
dont randomly spoof your browser fingerprint as its more identifiable than not spoofing at all
if you know how to, you can spoof it to a "common fingerprint" as the fingerprint is hardware based (i think)

also it should be mentioned that excessive avoidance will raise more eyebrows than regular usage
hiding in plain sight is a really good strategy

>Is Telegram libre? How can I know whether it is or not?
telegram is not libre, client code contains binary blobs and is sometimes pushed later
server is proprietary

>>61780900
Mostly just by using trusted open source utilities. Look up privacytools.io. they have a pretty list of alternatives for more privacy.

>>61780900
i just said how bad it is. even using 4chan is bad (hiroyuki sold 2ch data to ad companies). is it wrong? its your data do what you want with it. surveillance is converging towards totalitarianism pretty quickly honesly. on the data side, the state restrixts what you can do, not necessarily illegal activities but any suspicious behaviours too. ad data is also used by private companies like insurers who can jack up prices based on all sorts of things. then data leaks can also make this all public. imagine if someone is after you and they now have all you habitual data, address and so forth

make sure you done have anything blocking it, try reinstalling(backup your setings) just werks for me.

>>61782602
you've probably only cloned one of the 2 partitions you need to boot. get acronis of TPB.

Recently my monitor has been acting strange. Sometimes it'll go black and say source like it I unplugged the cable and put it back in, it's almost instant but during gaming can be annoying. I've checked the connection and moving the HDMI cable on the graphics card side will cause this to happen. I'm going to replace the cable but if this continues to happen where do I look then?

>>61782910
It won't continue to happen, but if it does I'd check the connector on the monitor or the graphics card and realize "I can't do shit about this" and replace either.

"Right off the bat, I'm immediately inclined to agree with Lexie and Xavier's assessment—that it's a light-based phenomenon. The phone's flash LED is designed to put out a large amount of energy as light in a very short time. Since black-colored objects absorb visible light of any wavelength, it's not surprising that coloring your skin black and mashing it against a high-power light source might transfer a good bit of that energy to your skin, resulting in a minor burn."

Holy shit why the fuck do people ever buy MacBooks? This is absolutely ridiculous

What is hackintosh? Is it a free version of MacOS on Desktops and shit?

>>61783588
If you didn't cause that to happen, RMA it?

>>61784539
It's when you build a PC with carefully chosen hardware so that you can install macOS on it. macOS is a free download for existing Apple users so that's how you can get your hands on it. The parts have to be chosen carefully because, as you know, Apple doesn't support macOS outside of their own Macintosh computers. One relies on the work of others who have "hacked together" hardware support for other devices in order to get macOS working on a non-Macintosh. Hence, "Hackintosh."

>>61784539
A lot of people fucking hate MacBooks (see >>61784476 for your typical reasons why) but love OSX.

Hackintosh = using OSX on non-Apple computers

It's only free through illegal means technically

The computer in question has to closely match Apple hardware because of OSX's limited driver support, but it's not really that hard since most Intel shit is fairly standardized these days so you can have an OSX machine for much cheaper

Use the power cable from your old PSU, is going to be the same exact cable. If that doesn't work wrap the end of the power cable in electrical tape a few times so its tighter

I have a disk image from a failing windows hard drive on my linux machine. What's the best way to go about turning it into a bootable partition so that I can dual-boot.

>>61786471
Just get one of those cheap, non branded, desk wide ones off Amazon.

>>61785961
so I've experimented a bit more with it, and after raising the power limit to the maximum (+75%), the highest core clock I could hit without encountering graphical glitches was somewhere around 1474-1479 MHz, at 1499 MHz there was noticeable flickering and the skybox would randomly turn black etc (this time testing with Unigine Heaven, everything at ultra, 1600x900 windowed)
memory runs fine at 2000 MHz, too bad you can't even try and set it higher than that
I don't think the gpu is overheating btw, it stood still at 70 celcius which is the default temperature target in wattman for this card at least

at stock speeds, the benchmark would run at 33.5 fps average (843 points, min 20.4 fps, max 71.5 fps)
when oc'd to 1479 MHz core and 2000 MHz mem, the average was 37.9 fps (955 points, min 22.5, max 80.8)
which means an 13% performance boost for free
i find this really fortunate as i was able to get this card for only 130$ including european taxes etc and I'm getting 1050 ti performance out of it
thanks for assuring me that overclocking is safe so i wasn't afraid of pushing the card to its limit

>>61786911
Call rand(), XOR your 128 bit integer with your random number, then call rand() again, shift your 128 bit integer to the left by 32 bits, and XOR it with your new random number. Repeat until all your bits are set.

>>61787056
assign a value of N in {0,3} to each randomly generated number
and then sum them all at the end

basically shift each random number left the width of an int
(but by using multiplication we handle different endianness)

Got a GeForce GTX 760M on my laptop, and the newer drivers are causing trouble. Is there a wiki where I can find the most stable driver version for a given card?

Is there a performance difference between using switch/case and if/else if/else? Or is it pretty much just style?

Also, language in question is C# if it matters.

best company to buy a prebuilt workstation? Dell, Lenovo, or HP?

how bad is windows 10?

I'm building an OS and trying to figure out if i should stick with 7 or just use 10.

I'm not paranoid about security and I need windows because of the programs i need to run. So, 7 vs 10?

>>61780307
That's Magsafe, 24V, up to 3.6A. There's not enough length to strip before the connector, and you can't buy a new connector separately.

10 is pretty bad if you keep the settings normal. pretty much disabling everything make's it better. it doesn't stop the botnet but it makes it less intrusive

Palemoon, Icecat, or Waterfox?

Planning on dropping Firefox once they get that update rolling live.

>>61788638
Switch/Case is faster to execute and yes, it does look neater

>>61788995
Only real issue is if you game, If you do then 10 cause dx12,if not stay on 7

im building a system specifically for hardware passthrough from linux to a windows vm. should i get ecc ram? i doubt i will find any ecc ram on my mobo's qvl. how do i know it will be compatible if i do need it?

>>61779829
Sugru/epoxy or similar to hold everything together, tape to make it look kinda nice.

>>61789211

No reason to get ECC ram for a desktop.

>>61789211
Need it, probably not. Can you, maybe.

What mobo/CPU would you be using?

Suggestions on a nvk?
I need 2 hdmi,1di and 2 usb minimum
I havent found anything that isnt enterprise grade and they want $500+ for.
Is there a brand im missing?

>>61789275
>nvk
*kvm
>di
*dvi

ryzen 5 1600, will probably upgrade to a ryzen 7 later on
mobo is gigabyte gaming 5

>>61789257

lol never mind I can't read. Unless your CPU/mobo requires it, I wouldn't bother. You'd really only need it if you were running critical applications where a random bit flip could really mess things up.

>gigabyte gaming 5
The X370 one?

Looks like it does support unbuffered ECC and does work properly. Wouldn't really be worth it IMO.

Smash your computer into a wall.
That's what happened when I tried.

if you are good at networking then possibly depending on employer.

but it can be a headache, it really can even for those that are good at it.

people think networks are held together by bubblegum and unicorns, and thats far far from the truth.

its held together by the sweat and effort of plebeian workers

>>61789035
palemoon, the other two are just modified firefox, and will eventually get stuff firefox has
palemoon completely forked off of firefox

Updated 4chan X to the latest version, and now every time I go to the catalog on any board, the page hangs for a few seconds before going back to normal. Wat do?

>>61789035
palemoon but be sure to get a user agent spoofer otherwise you walk around with firefox 36 and everybody notices you
