Bash means linux command line basically mate.

>>62200960

How do I get bash working on Windows, can I not use it like python where I run a command line from the install folder?

how big is the performance difference between a SSD and a HDD

>>62201096
enormous. get a fucking ssd already.

>>62200960

Alright, Bash works on Windows thanks to some update. How do I get the other stuff, curl
and pcre working though?

>>62200986
>>62201125
use an emulator like cygwin and install curl

Anyone made a solder iron before? Would getting 2 bits if thick copper wire and a stainless steel knife work? And stick bit of wire in + and - on car battery or wall outlet?

I set up Bash using this - https://www.howtogeek.com/249966/how-to-install-and-use-the-linux-bash-shell-on-windows-10/

and then followed the usage instructions, without downloading curl / PCRE, and it it seemed to run? I think it worked?

wtf happen to the screengrab tool and nightly?

>>62201295

uh only problem is I have no idea where it actually saves to.

Anyone got tips to typing faster and more consistent? I can't for the life of me get into touch typing, I keep resorting back to 2-4 fingers.
I can go without looking at the keyboard easily when typing, but I can't get my brain to use more than 4 fingers to type with (2 each hand of course)
Please, I know 70-80WPM is above average, but I want to be able to type faster and get more consistent with typing. Are online typing test reliable? I've done some tests on 10fastfingers, but I'm shit with tests.

>>62201530

I do the same thing, I learned how to type playing Runscape, but I only use the my pointer and middle fingers from each hand (not counting thumb for space or left hand keyboard inputs when gaming). I can maintain 90+ wpm with little error, so I'm not that hard pressed about changing it. It may look weird to others how you're typing, but who cares? I tried to change how I type years ago but I couldn't get my brain and fingers to work together so I went back to the 4 finger start I'm used ti.

My phone won't turn on. Left it charging for an hour and the Green LED blinks but that's about it. Won't go on past that.
Is there a way to fix this without getting it replaced?
Model: Droid Turbo 2

I spilled coffee all over my asus gaming laptop. I turned it off and shook it then turned it back on and it worked for a few minutes then smelt something burning and the screen flashed and shut off. Ive tried turning it back on and charging it to no avail. Should i take the battery out then try turn it on?

Why doesn't catalog search find /sqt/, if /sqt/ is IN THENAME FIELD?

>>62201919

It needs to be in subject not the name

>>62201919
Because the name field isn't relevant, and only stupid people use it as a subject field.

Does Linux not treat character binary mappings the same as Windows? I tried to put an underscore as the first character of my folder to bump it to the top thanks to underscores having a lesser binary value than "a" in Windows, and will throw it to the top in file sorting, but it didn't do shit on this new Jewbuntu install I have going...

>>62202040
Check how your file manager is sorting folders/files
I have folders using the same format so, its your end

>>62201935
>>62201938
So, are you saying that only putting /sqt/ in the name field could be considered bad practices or /g/ etiquette?

>>62202121
It is. Use the fields for what they're for.

I have a nighthawk r7000 and a NETGEAR AC1200 plugged into a usb 3 port but still have latency issues. I can't move the router closer or plug in an Ethernet cable. Would getting a pci card improve anything?

Windows 10 power kernel error points to faulty psu, right?

If you're measuring the voltage of a resistor on a multimeter, what is the reading giving you? The voltage coming through or the voltage being resisted?

>>62200934
Why the fug are there no affordable (<200€) minimum 80w per channel stereo or otherwise amplifiers with a sub out, possibly bluetooth connectivity, and that don't look like utter ass? I'm looking for a solution to my PC audio, and the absolute cheapest stuff starts at about 220€, and even then you're compromising on something. Might as well just pick up a 5.1 home theater amp and be done with it.

>installing Arch
>having problem setting up wifi-menu
>run IP LINK SET WLP1sO DOWN; WIFI-MENU
>this works

I'm trying to understand why. Is ip a service that conflicts with wifi-menu? If so, why does archlinux wiki recommend wifi-menu after a long series of entries advising ip commands?

>>62202649
The voltage difference between the two points. Voltage doesn't "come through" really, it's either being resisted or it's zero.

Has anyone experienced an issue in Windows 10 where wifi loses the default gateway and drops connection? My wifi will cut out and sometimes running the troubleshooter will reset the adapter and fix it. Other times it just kills my wifi driver and even reinstalling it doesn't fix the issue and I have to do a system restore. I did a Reset this PC option and the issue stipp persists. I've tried everything, assigning a static IP, updating driver's. Nothing works. Is it an issue with my router? None of my other devices have issues. Just my desktop.

>>62200934
guess I'll post this here too since OP is a massive newfag and didn't put /sqt/ in a searchable field

I want to run a program with options using dmenu_run. Right now I have a bash script in /usr/bin that's just command -option, but that seems dumb. Alias support for dmenu is more difficult though. Is there a more elegant solution for this?

>>62204385
keybind dmenu to a key and use it like its intended too be used(srsly why aren you using it this way)

>>62201211

you should have let it dry for several days. Enjoy your brick.

>>62204415
It is bound to a key. Does this clarify what I want?

>>62204446
Then press that key and type in the switches/options you want

It is bound to a key. Does this clarify what I want? oops

>>62204463
so press your keybind then type that command in

>>62204469
it's like 50 keystrokes, the whole point is to make it shorter

How can I get such browser ?
What is that ? Another firefox fork ?

>>62204498
I'm not really any help, but I'd imagine that would depend more on the specific hardware and the drivers it has for each os.

>>62204498
battery wise? windows out the box, still probably windows even after configuring linux manually but you'd get close with linux

performance wise? if it's wireless ac the windows drivers will be a lot better (by a couple hundred mib bandwidth) but unless you're doing some serious file transfer over lan it probably makes no difference

>>62204531
windows gpu drivers are almost always universally better too, forgot to mention

>>62204528
are you referring to 4chan-x?

>>62204528
4chanx+oneechan extensions

>>62204550

my bad thanks

>>62204737
all good

>>62204737
You need oneechan to have all the colorized shit and anime everywhere by default without putting any work in to it

>>62200934
Am I supposed to run "python -m <mystuff>" everytime? It seems that without the '-m' toggle, all manners of imports that make pylint shut up are ridiculously broken.

>>62201530
If it works it works. You could try typing of the dead for lulz.

I just had to get an oldish desktop working again. Uses Windows7 but hasn't updated in a couple of years, and I don't feel like updating to 10. I used to have a link for a blog that maintained an installer that managed updates, so you could choose the critical ones and avoid the bloat and botnet, someone has it?

want to learn windows server and active directory

already can do basic scripting with powershell
already fixed some in production stuff but never setup stuff from ground up

I would like to get some overall understanding good foundations
I feel my understanding of DNS needs a lot of work too to feel comfortable
go some resources to learn from from googling around,
downloaded mastering windows severs 2012 book, but did not start to read
know about this channel, but did not yet start to go through
https://www.youtube.com/user/itfreetraining/playlists

so looking for some input

I have both uMatrix and uBlock Origin.

Do I really only need the latter? Is the former unnecessary?

Which DE uses fewer resources, xfce or MATE?

I like sshfs. I don't like it when I have a VPN connection and the server is on a local network. What can I do about this?

I need to make a distributed file system, for my OS class using Unix. My teacher is a weird man that doesnt teach anything, any idea where I could start?

>>62206358
They do two different things well.You need both of them

>>62206967
Like actual unix?

>>62206967
>My teacher is a weird man that doesnt teach anything
We call that a "professor".

>>62207066

This is where I'm not really sure, I just remember him mentioning unix.

>>62207117
yeah, I sometimes doubt if he actually knows what he's talking about. its just that he jerks off so much with theory never really gets into practice.

>>62206978
But doesn't even the dev of uMatrix simply just use uBlock or something?

How do i block new window popups in firefox? Ublock doesn't.

>>62207613
Update your filterss

>>62200934
can my pc with wifi be the uplink for a switch

dont ask "why", just yes or no, and how.

>>62206967
Well if it's Linux look into fuse (you can use python) and some existing distributed blob storage db/library for the backend. You'll be done in a weekend.

>>62200960
>being this retarded
This has to be bait

>>62201345
Nightly isn't even that much faster. Install GNU IceCat. If you want speed over security and usability install Ungoogled Chromium

>>62201669
See if you can get into the bootloader or recovery, from there try doing something with ADB.

>>62202834
From my experiences wifi-menu isn't very good; often lots of bugs. Use wpa_supplicant if connecting to WiFi from a TTY. Here's a script I made for WPA:

I'd also recommmend using arch-anywhere instead: https://arch-anywhere.org/

Should I switch majors to become a software developer? Right now I'm just taking general education courses but I'm planning on going to school to be a teacher.

>>62200934
How the fuck do it get these chinese faggots to stop trying to break in to my test server via ssh?

>>62209931
If you get a STEM degree in anything you can become a software engineer pretty easily as long as you learn the right stuff. Also in the US at least it is incredibly easy to become a teacher once you have a degree.

I've had this with my nexus 7 for over a year now, but I rarely use it so I never figured out the problem for sure.

It's not a screen crack, and it's not software related because it would show up in a screenshot, so I was wondering what else could be causing the line across the screen? Could I try to disassemble it and reseat the lcd cable and see if that fixes it?
