Is x265 widespread yet? Do I have to worry about compatibility issues?

>>62107585
In terms of piracy it's pretty much the standard now for 4K releases, becoming more common for regular HD too, released alongside the regular H.264. To play them smoothly you'll either need hardware decode (AMD Fury/RX 4xx and newer, nvidia 1xxx/some 9xx series, Intel 7xxx series) or a reasonably quick CPU, especially for 4K.

trying to uninstall the native runtime version of Steam but it says it includes over 100 packages. Is that normal?

>>62107838
Not using arch but note they are all lib32 ones, if you main system is x64 I can imagine that nothing else is using those libs.
In saying that on debian steam runtime isn't packaged seperately so idk

How do I stop Adobe Media Encoder / Photoshop from creating a metric fuckton of autosaves / backups?

I want to reencode a few videos from .mp4 to H.265, with the source clip and new clip in a folder, and afterwards I can just delete the source clip, but I've noticed Adobe likes to create A LOT of temp files in the Appdata folder. How do I stop it from doing that?

>>62109446
you can't host anything with just a domain, you also need a server

I have need for moar SATA ports in my fileserver. I'm aware I could buy a PCI-E card to give me a couple of extra ports, but I also happen to have a spare motherboard and CPU lying around that would also give me more ports, as well as massively improve performance.
So, how well does FreeBSD handle major component changes like this? I've performed massive mobo/cpu changes (AMD to Intel) on Linux before just fine, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Bonus question: my root fs is mounted using absolute device paths in my fstab, so I'll update that to use labels instead. Things is, I can't see any files in /dev/ufs or /dev/label. Am I correct in thinking these devices don't show up once the partitions they reference are mounted in multi-user mode, and will only be viewable in single-user mode without mounting the disk? All partitions were labeled during install.

>>62109477


Can't. My job requires me to use Adobe suite, and the only problem I have is the backups/autosaves in the appdata folder. Having to delete them every time is annoying, and I can't exactly use ffmpeg for thousands of clips.

>>62109526
>and I can't exactly use ffmpeg for thousands of clips.
why not?

Should I use Windows 8 or some flavor of Ubuntu?
I'm seeing literally no benefit from switching to Ubuntu because Windows can do the same and I don't need to go through the trouble of installing. Other than the looks, can I have some reasons on why I should switch? I'll judge my decision with those.

So I find myself in a situation where masquerading isnt acceptable. I have a virtual bridge with out a real interface and a second real lan that I am very restrictive with.
Doing stuff like "drop bridge bridge" doesn't work while masquerading and the machines can still ping, ssh, hack each other.. not all of them are supposed to be able to do this. All but a handful of them should be completely blind asto what else is in the network, let alone sit there and brute force the others ssh..

Is it an acceptable solution to just dnat fucking everything to where it suposed to go? How much would this affect network speeds realistically?

>>62109698
The main difference is in the actual producer of the memory; eg samsung vs hynix, etc. Beyond that it's more of "what they've added" in terms of heat sinks or RGB (lol). So, broadly speaking, no.

I'm looking at my partitions on xubuntu and I don't see my windows partition. I also can't switch to it. Where did it go? I'm positive I didn't delete it.
I think it's /dev/sda1 because it says it's bootable, but it's not mounted and it won't mount.

look at `lsblk` or `sudo fdisk -l` for something more verbose.

If you can afford it, just get another hdd/ssd, it's a lot less of a hassle.

>>62110068
W-What? Getting another HDD and then ... what, copying the old data onto it then mounting that is less hassle than just mounting the current partition?

Why is there a discrepancy between sorting by date in irfanview and Windows explorer in 7? The latest image is the same for both, but the oldest according to explorer is 179/1140 images for irfanview, then 943, 245, 319, 243, 210, 251, 239...

Is there any reason for this at all?

>>62110117
Having two independent hdd's for each operation system instead of having one partitioned hdd. Windows and Linux don't always play nice with each other and can be a pain to setup, I find it easier to install each on individual drives. I can't really help you on recovering partitions. Maybe post a screencap of gparted.

what part of a hard drive stores paths and filenames?

>>62110202
A path IS the filename. A program like mv doesn't actually move any data unless you specified a different filesystem for the target, it just renames the file.

That is because you are a brainlet ;(

>>62110202
there's no "part of the hard drive", but rather part of the filesystem, the metadata
exactly what and how metadata is stored depends on which filesystem you're talking about
for example, FAT* stores this in the File Allocation Table (hence "FAT")
ntfs stores this is the MFT (master file table)
etc

for what it's worth here's a copy paste of a post i saw on /qa/ two weeks ago (however mods can arbitrarily lengthen bans, like i once for no expressed reason got 5days instead of standard 3 for posting a pony on /r9k/):

It's just 30 days, go figure. From what I've seen, bans follow a very clear pattern (as far as global rule bans go, at least)
normal bans - 3 days
garbage outside of /b/ - 1 day
raid - 5 days
underage, ban evasion - 30 days

I need to make digital copies of some DVDs. MakeMKV is no charging for some retarded license thing now. I know FFmpeg can concatenate VOB files, but it can't do it if there's some sort of protection on the disc. What can I do to get around it?

what nvidia card would suffice for a 1440p 144hz monitor? it has gsync so I wouldn't necessarily need to keep that frame rate and there's always the option to lower graphical settings but what would be a good sweet spot? a 1070?

>>62111640
just realized that when I get the fan going, the computer doesn't know to stop it. it just keeps going at high speed unless I put it in sleep mode to force it off. It's definitely a software issue at this point.

>>62111911
If you want more than 60Hz on a 1440p screen, I wouldn't recommend going below 1080.

>>62111873
Finding such specific used items is hard, but I'll try.

>>62111941

So would you say a 1070 would be a good idea for 144hz low quality settings and 60hz hqsettings?

>>62111971
Well a 1050 ti is pretty good at 1080p 60hz on relatively high settings. Just knowing that I would say as long at you aren't pairing it with a Pentium D, the 1070 would provide plenty power for 144hz at low settings.

>>62112284
Might be psu or mobo

Check the psu connections, whether the fans get power, disconnect everything unneeded (hdd included), leave 1 stick of ram and try to boot from the cd

Google your problem, there's plenty of tests described online. If you think it's too much of a hassle and have money just give it to a technician

Trying home automation. Bought some sockets which work on the 433MHz RF (433.92MHz), but the receiver on the PI doesn't register any signals from the socket remote control when I press buttons, so I'm getting nowhere fast.

Sockets:
https://www.dustinhome.no/product/5010958443/neyc3-power-switch-kit-white

RF transmitter and reciever:
http://m.ebay.com/itm/433Mhz-Superheterodyne-3400RF-Transmitter-and-Receiver-Kit-For-Arduino-ARM-MCU-/121597448874

"R" in pic related is how I've connected it to the Raspberry Pi 2 B.

I've installed rpi-rf through pip and this is the command I use to listen:

rpi-rf_receive -g 17

The goal is to figure out what the remote control is sending, then disconnect the rf receiver and connect the rf transmitter (same pins), and from there send rf signals to turn on/off my sockets.

>>62107531
How would I know? Should I buy other 433MHz sockets?

Is there any risk to mounting my NTFS disks (and writing to them) on Linux?

Use HDMI input from your GPU, you should get an option like pic related in your playback devices. When you want to use the TV's sound, make the TV the default device.
I have 3 monitors and my TV is the third. I'm on Win7 but I assume the option is still there on Win10.

I said HDMI, but if your TV has a display port, then you can use that too. It depends what ports your GPU has.

Did the Google Nexus 7 2013 ever get dethroned as the king of budget tablets? The digitizer on mine got fucked yesterday somehow and I was looking at my options.

A) Replace the digitizer myself buying a replacement from Ebay for about 30 bucks
B) Get it fixed for 60 bucks (honestly is the more appealing out of the two because even though I know I'm capable of doing it myself, opening phones/tablets is a tedious venture. My big 'ol fingers may be fine for opening up a computer, but the insides of phones and shit are so delicate that I just get turned off the idea of it
c) Get a new tablet

I keep looking but I can't see anything that beats the Nexus for it's price range, anyone have any recommendations?

Reasking this

Is there any explanation of why my Wifi goes to complete shit after a period of time? It'll work fine, but every now and again everything will just turn to shit, speeds will be terrible, and I have to turn it off and on. That fixes it, but why do I have to do that? What's wrong with it?

It's not just WiFi, devices on Ethernet go to shit too

>>62093154
Is this true, could it really just be my router?

>>62117216
Sounds like it is over heating. Open it up and pop one of those mini heat sinks on it, or place a fan next to it. Maybe relocate it to an open air flow.

>>62107555
What's the best site to build a PC from?
I've been living in a shit hole for a while because I had to move in with friends for Uni, literally not enough room for a PC in it so I got a pretty pricey laptop instead. 16GB RAM, i7, 950M Nvidea card. It runs most things at high at around 40-60 FPS which is alright.

Finally landed a decent job and I've gotten a bigger living area now, so thinking of building a PC, I earn about £100-ish a week because I'm on a 0 Hours contract and 100 is usually the bare minimum I earn, so with some saving I should be able to buy something high-endish right? Thinking of saving for like ten or so weeks idk.

>>62117216
>>62117254
Would overheating effect the Ethernet speeds too? I find that bizarre, I had no idea it was a thing. I've never noticed my router getting hot.

When I switch it off and on it's instant, I don't wait a couple of minutes, 30 seconds at best. Would it cool down in that time?

>>62115492

>>62117772
>a hundred or so bucks on a router

I don't think you can get anything that's not shit for under a hundred, unless you can find a rerubished one on the cheap

>>62117833
Well that's a shame. Like I said, I know nothing about this stuff, I really thought I could throw 30 bucks on this and fix it.
I did see a review on Amazon with someone mentioning they had the same router as me and the 30 bucks one improved the situation. But would that still overheat anyway?

A USB fan might be a good idea, I just wouldn't really know where to point it since it stands vertical. Think it's worth a new router or I shouldn't bother with that at all?

>>62117887
mine stands vertical too, I just took the base off of it(it usually just slides off) and laid it down on the cooling pad.

as for a new router, I'd try a fan or a ten dollar cooling pad first to see if overheating really is the issue and if that solves it

>>62117742
Like I said, consider opening it and using one of those 5 dollar adhesive mini heat sinks on it.
I bought an old router for open wrt and it would get hot, and I used an old rPi heat sink and the problem faded away.

>>62117997
The thing is my current Router has really shit range too, I struggle to get decent connection in just a room upstairs, so I want to sort of fix that. I was thinking wifi extender, but people have mentioned a new router would be better. Maybe they meant actually good routers though.
It's like a 2 birds with 1 stone situation, but I'm not really sure a new router still won't have the overheating issue. I'd have to set my current one to modem mode

How to clean pc?
Just open it up and blast air?
Or do i need to take the parts out and shit?

Some type of memory your computer utilizes when shutting off or when you go over your memory.
I've read you don't need it if you don't plan on hibernating, but I've also read you need it during normal use

>>62120041
I was looking more for an emulator, like wabbitemu is for windows.

I need a good flatscreen TV, budget is ~$250 USD.

>Minimum 32"
>Minimum 720p, would prefer 1080p, don't need 4K

Missed out on a good deal at my local thrift store, can't seem to find any good deals anywhere else. Any suggestions where to look/buy online?

>>62120040
Me again.
Turns out i had a typo somewhere in the cron file, but this line works now:
cd ~/Desktop/scripts && python crontest.py

But i'd still like to know whether this is the "proper" way to do it, please

>>62120218
/usr/bin should be in the PATH varialbe, so /usr/bin/ is redundant. Why not `python /home/anon/Desktop/contest.py`
>using ~/Desktop
Or placing `#!/usr/env python` at the top of the file and executing it straight up.

It's very likely the one you're seeing that it won't let you mount. Sometimes Windows has issues mounting, so check out the mount manpage. There are a lot of results on ask Ubuntu and other similar sites, so check there if you still have issues.

Is https://adnauseam.io something I should install with uBlock Origin if I don't fucking care about being tracked? I don't really know what is that at all thought.

>>62120312
>installing something with zero knowledge of what it does
yassssssss

>>62120066
Get rid of the dust bunnies

I want to upgrade from fraps for taking screenshots and recording. What are the best programs today for these? I grabbed dxtory and msiafterburner to try them out and already had obs but havent really messed with its local recording stuff.

>>62120343
That's why I'm asking. I won't install without knowing what it is exactly. Did you even read my post?

>>62120349
Windows+Print Page is already pretty gud. Do Windows+alt+Print for specific windows screenshot.

Then, for recording, OBS, it is pretty gud to stream too.

>>62120428
Oh, you said you already had OBS, didn't notice because it wasn't in caps. I'd give another try, but if you really dislike it then xplit or however is called.

Is there an adapter that lets me plug usb-c accessories into a phone with micro usb? Can only find adapters for the other way around.

>>62120295
>Why not `python /home/anon/Desktop/scripts/crontest.py`
I just opened my terminal and did that. So my python file has a line like

with open("testfile", "a+") as f:
  f.write("Hello")

And when i ran the script that way, it created the file testfile in the directory where i opened the terminal.
Whereas if i run cd /home/anon/Desktop/scripts && python crontest.py
it edits the file in the correct directory

>>62110006
Did you try uninstalling all of the problematic drivers already? If that doesn't work you can hunt through the registry for all instances of SCPtoolkit

>>62120312
It's an adblocker built off of uBlock Origin. Replace it with it.

Hey, I'm using Antergos and all of the sudden Steam isn't opening for me but it worked before. I can't tell where the error is in the terminal output so I'll just pastebin the whole thing: https://pastebin.com/Cd7MCPnV

Thats opening a relative path. Import os and use path to open with an absolute path

anyone have a suggestion for a solid malware remover for android? never had a problem with shit before and now suddenly I'm getting pop ups while my phone is idling.

>>62120600
Thanks. Ordered the adapter.

Just got a ducky one keyboard
the 'fn' key is acting like a right click and i cant use it for anything else.
Any ideas to change that?

>>62111733
Be sure your graphics card is the one rendering 3d and not your motherboard's gpu.

>>62120698
The fn key is a hardware key that should only work as a function key for the keyboard and nothing else. Seeing that its emulating a right click you could use xbindkeys to disable it, maybe.

My ducky dosent even register a keysym for it.

alright so i have a Yamaha P-20 turntable, and I'm trying to hook it up. It has the normal RCA outputs, but instead of a ground wire there is a TS connector. I have no idea what to do with this. Do I need some sort of special preamp?
google isn't turning up a lot.

>>62120698
read the manual and make sure you have it in the right setting.
also make sure the keycaps are in the right spots

Anyone used bamboo paper? I'm giving it a go and it's nicer to draw in than the default Windows 10 drawing/notetaking thing but the pam rejection is fucked. Is there a way to make it only accept drawing input from my stylus and not my hands?

What is/are the best comic book/manga reader(s) I should look at? Is it worth getting a dedicated reader like that as opposed to just a fully fledged tablet?

I know very little about tablets and mobile devices

Norton installations have frequently been breaking lately probably due to updates.

WHY the fuck is Mega uploading so GODDAMN slow. I have 5MB up and yet it caps out at 100KB/s. 100 kilobytes a fucking second. Why the fuck is it so slow and how do I fix it?

Would something like pic related help me?

Does using Discord pose any dangers? Like stolen IP etc?

>>62121788
it's most likely a botnet, and they can shut down your server if they don't like what you're talking about in it

I got rid of it right away after that, it's sad how so many good things go to shit so quickly.

Condenser or dynamic mic for vocal recording?

>>62121804
I want to randomly join some server and talk to some strangers out of boredom. Can I get hacked in anyway? Or some other bad thing happen?

>>62112480
If you want to find what modulation it uses, get a decent radio receiver and look at it. RTL2832U based USB TV sticks work nicely for this sort of thing.

is it time to buy a 4k monitor yet? especially if I don't really care about going above 60hz? what is the sweet spot size for a 4k monitor? 27", 32", bigger?

>>62121926
I wouldn't bother with 4k below 30"

How to get flash for chromium on linux?

>>62121338
5Mb/s or 5MB/s up? There's a big difference.

>>62121962

5 MB, as in 40 Mb.

>>62121860
There's always going to be security flaws in a program, it's all up to who finds them and who they use it on, although it's probably not gonna be you.

I'm more concerned with Discord keeping tabs on everything users say and share and deciding what to keep and what to trash.

Any chance of a standalone linux flash player?

>>62122120
No

Do workspaces use more resources?

>>62122039
Then it's just Mega being slow. Note they do throttle free accounts.

>>62122129
What about through wine?

>>62122144

I could understand throttling the download (but they don't), but the upload?

>>62122149
The fuck are you trying to us?

>>62122120
There's GNU Gnash if you want a native clone. Compatibility still isn't great though.

Or you can run the adobe one in wine. https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=15096

>>62122168
wine

>>62122246
Wine dosent need flash enabled to work

>>62122133
Not on linux. it's basically just minimizing windows.

Swap space in Linux is used when the amount of physical memory (RAM) is full. If the system needs more memory resources and the RAM is full, inactive pages in memory are moved to the swap space. While swap space can help machines with a small amount of RAM, it should not be considered a replacement for more RAM. Swap space is located on hard drives, which have a slower access time than physical memory.

>not using JDownloader

>>62122456

I'm uploading. Not downloading.

That's why. Reading comprehension goes a long way.
