How in the fuck am I supposed to install OS X on Virtualbox in W10 with a Kaby Lake CPU? I've tried everything, to no avail.

Is the extra $100 worth the upgrade from 1070 to 1080?

>>62306960
no
if it was 1080ti yes
1080 NO

anyone know a good free driver updater that also installs?

>>62307009
>driver updater
Is this something people actually need and use? I just update my shit manually, and the only thing that needs updating once in a while is Nvidia's driver.

>>62307009
geforce experience or catalyst control panel you absolute retard

My internet randomly blinks off. Not long enough to change the lights on the modem; it's maybe 10 seconds of inactivity that boots me out of online games and holds up my browsing. What's happening and how do I fix?

>>62306887

>>62307197

Does it really matter? Just go with whatever's cheaper.

>>62306707
Can you start rotating it a little bit? Kinda tired of the same girl.

>>62307169
Are you in an apartment complex?

>>62307216
same exact price
it matters because if any of those two are too weak it will drop frames like crazy while upscaling 1080p to 2160p

>>62306969
Isn't Ti $300 upgrade? BTW I don't have 1070 or 1080. I have 980

>>62307009
DriverBooster has been good in my experience, then I just stopped using it and just use the windows update drivers.
Anyways if you need a premium key for that program you can easily find it on YouTube. Same goes for Avast Premium :) .

>>62307230
same here

>>62307258
if you have a 980 there is no reason at all to buy a 1070 since that's pretty much your card already
1080 is also a shitty upgrade considering it has more or less the same performance of the 980ti
You waited this long without getting a 1000 series card might as well wait for the next series

>>62307247
Internet searches tell me the 1030 is the best card for 4K HTPCs.

hi /g/

so I have a stupid question

I'm looking for suggestions for books / reference on software design. I don't care if it's called architecture or engineering or programming or whatever but what I'm looking for is why functions and classes are structured a certain ways and why. I'm hoping for language agnostic general programming problems that are common to all software languages / designs. I get this is impossible to a degree as certain things are language specific.

I don't know the correct terminology for this. It's somewhere just below design patterns. Does anyone have a word for this?

thanks

>>62307362
1. isolate. keep a ping to localhost, localmodem, firsthop, secondhop going in 4 seperate windows.

course of action changes a lot based on which you can continue to ping during an outage.

looking for a recommendation, something comfy and lightweight for reading RSS?
Fell for he mutt meme and removed thunderbird completely

>>62307473
Alright, localhost and localmodem are running. How do I check first & second hop?

>>62307592
tracert(win32)/traceroute(*nix) to someplace on the net you lose connection to like www.4chan.org

take the next ip after your router and the next ip after that and ping those, one is likely an edge device on your isp. then keep pinging 4chan or something.

if only 4chan ping dies you know it's isp.
if isp ping window also dies you know it's router
if router ping window also dies you know it's NIC

4 hours trying to install grub

>>62307705
give absolute path to esp_mount

>>62307705
full path to esp_mount, it literally tells you to
You're at least reading the wiki which is a good step in the right direction

>>62307705
change esp_mount to /boot
>First, tell GRUB to use UEFI, set the boot directory and set the bootloader ID. Mount the ESP partition to e.g. /boot or /boot/efi and in the following change esp_mount to that mount point (usually /boot):

# grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=esp_mount --bootloader-id=grub

>>62307756
All I had to do was change esp_mount to /boot, I feel dumb
Now GRUB loads but doesnt show any OS
Here we go again
>>62307769
The wiki is perfect. The problem is when you fast read and dont get the small details

>>62307792
>GRUB loads but doesnt show any OS

Also general tip, if you're using arch or any derivative, don't speedrun it, especially if its your first time. Read everything carefully FIRST, then implement it, this will erase 99% of your problems later on

also, google (or startpage) is your friend
https://www.pckr.co.uk/arch-grub-mkconfig-lvmetad-failures-inside-chroot-install/

>>62307961
also, arch wiki itself mentions on the troubleshooting part that the lvmetad error doesnt meddle with your install at all, so it should work perfectly regardless

A week ago I ran ~4km with sprints in between, now it feels like my shins hurt when I walk at any speed above walking and it isn't getting any better.
What is this? Can I remedy it?

>>62307671
>>62307473
Did some cmd work. Looks like a problem lies in the second hop. Ping requests to it time out. No pings reach it whatsoever.

That being said I'm still able to browse freely. There doesn't seem to be rhyme or reason to when the ping to 4chan starts timing out. It just happens. Sometimes it's one timeout, sometimes it's a set of five in a row.

What's the fix for this?

do you have wifi router or do you connect your pc directly to modem/router ISP provided / you bought to connect to ISP?

if it's PC -> wifirouter ->ISP router in your house then 2nd hop failure means your cable modem is the issue.

If it's PC -> ISP router in your house direct then 2nd hop is the ISP screwing up and you should complain.

Also compare pinging by FQDN vs IP to make sure it's not a DNS failure.

how do i avoid ganking up my mouse, mousepad and keyboard?

Grub question:
The thing works just fine every time except when I'm using my disk on RAID 0 mode. If I try to install Ubuntu over windows and then dual boot, both installations just get corrupted and I need to secure erase and reinstall windows. As I said before this doesn't happen if I just use my disk in AHCI mode.
Anyome knows why this happens?

Is Optane worth it or should I just go with an HDD+SSD setup like everyone else for vidya?

>>62308594

>>62308605
Optane is just a overpriced SSD, it has its uses but its not for gaming.

I accidentally left my solder iron by my laptop battery for a second and it burnt a hole into the battery. It discharges just fine, laptop is fine, it just doesn't charge when plugging it in. Windows says to replace it. I just want to make sure it is unfixable before getting another battery.

I'm in a bit of a funny situation here, basically there's this program i restored from a backup (it was previously activated on the old machine) but now it asks me for a serial key again when i click the exe in the restored folder

Now the serial key for this program is being stored in the registry entry on the backup hdd itself. Naturally as it's an external drive i cannot just access the registry file on there. How do i read the external ntuser.dat file and so on so as to be able to get my serial back, are there any good freeware programs for this kind of task?

Both HDD's have windows 7 on them btw

I don't know if this is the right board to ask, but I have this student card for my uni that has swipe and "wireless" capability. By wireless I mean whatever you call that over-the-air thing that hotel cards use, for instance. (I also want to know what you'd call that)

I want to make a bracelet that basically allows you to have the same functionality as the card, meaning I can upload whatever data is stored on the card to it as well as open doors and shit with it.

why do most routers use 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 as their default local ip?

why cant they just use shorter ones like 1.0, 1.2, 1.3, etc.

correct me if im wrong but the local ip doesnt ever reach the outside world so why does it need to be so long?

>>62309933
because 1.0 is not a IP, it would be 0.0.1.0.
Some routers use Localhost though which is pretty much the same than 192.168.x.x.

which is better for remote use, ssh or vnc

i know it's early but it's kinda urgent

>>62310297
I'd like to interject for a moment, after which I'll answer your question with an example. What you are referring to as GRUB, is actually GNU GRUB (short for GNU GRand Unified Bootloader) and is a boot loader package from the GNU Project.

Pronounce GRUB like the English word grub listed and defined in a standard English Dictionary.

youll have to be more specific with your goals. are you saying you want to install windows alongside OSX (aka not lose anything) and use it on your windows computer, or you want to wipe OSX and ONLY use it as a windows drive?

OSX uses a different file system than windows so if you want to use it on a straight windows computer youll need to wipe the drive and convert it to their format (windows installer lets you do this very easily)

Why does EVERY single fucking browser i use get stuck at "0 seconds left" with exe files? I had this happen two times in a row now with firefox and opera, they both just flat-out refuse to finish the downloads lel

Is this a problem with my SSD or an anti virus program causing it more likely

>>62310605

Actually scratch that it's not caused by any of the browsers i think, the whole fucking explorer locks up and doesn't react/crashes completely soon as you try to interact with any files anywhere

Also when i try deleting/moving any of the useless crdownload.part files explorer crashes aswell

>>62310715
>>62310715
Also worth noting is that when i had this problem earlier the only thing resolving it (ie me being able to interact with files again and download stuff at least temporarily until the problem starts again) is a hard shutdown/reboot and not just relogging

LOL now when i click "save image..." it doesn't even open up the explorer/save dialogue anymore, it's just that nothing happens at all

Do i have to reinstall win7 already? Jesus fuck someone tell me there's a fix for this bullcrap

>>62310715
>>62310736

if you have any other drives connected, try moving files off the SSD and then on to the SSD from the other drive

probably unrelated, but ive had an SSD that died with very similar symptons to that. all file movements freeze it to fuck. but it also took like 4 hours to install windows on that ssd so i knew it was pretty well fucked.

try changing the download location for your browser, and point it to a folder on the other drive. if it downloads and opens without issue from that drive, then you know the issue is your ssd

Could veracrypt be causing all of this?

>>62310874
well you dont want it to boot from the macbook ssd until you install windows on it

do you have install media for windows? a USB boot drive or a disk.

basically you get the bootable usb drive or disk inserted, and then you boot from the usb drive or disk. and then itll go into the windows install process and you can choose the macbook ssd and itll wipe it for you and install windows on it.

what kind of computer doesnt have a bios option to choose boot order? thats unlikely, they pretty much all have that, even the super locked down prebuilts

The thing is that i ported an older 32bit version of firefox directly over from the old machine so i suspect the download freeze which causes the explorer chain reaction that ends up fucking the whole OS over could possibly be caused by firefox... I'll keep an eye on it closely during the next couple hours and should the download + subsequent total explorer freeze of the whole OS happen again i will either refresh firefox or re-install it completely anew

>>62311117
>>62311117
Oh yeah and i should probably not have hundreds of tabs open with that particular older 32bit version of firefox methinks heh

Thing is i need to keep using it because 64bit firefox doesn't support java and any version greater than ff 51.0 (64 bit or not) doesn't either for some fucktarded reason

>>62311132
Yeah chkdsk just returned fine aswell, defo purely a software problem and thus a classic elimination process right there

What does an internship mean in America?
I mean, what separates it from a normal job? pay, hours, length of employment or hiring requirements?
Here, it means "in training" which means little to no pay and it is a lesser form of an education, but americans seem to have trouble getting these positions, so it must be different

>>62313233
No that's what it means here too. There's just a lot of competition for some jobs, so some shit you have to get a degree, then struggle to find an internship, do their shit work for minimal/no pay in the hope it'll get you hired somewhere else later.

>>62313278
wait, so you are not qualified to get a job when you have a degree?
The internship is just to suck up to companies to get a job?
I have seen threads here that claimed they were looking for people with experience to get these internships

Put it in your fucking program logic you dip.

>>62313233

They're basically jobs for university students, and they're typically paid pretty well. Interns at big companies in high CoL areas can make over 100k a year.

>>62313310
>just to suck up to companies to get a job
yup, cant get a job without experience, cant get experience without a job. you either apply for hundreds of jobs and maybe get one call/interview just to get denied the job, or you try for an internship, which is usually free/barely paid, and hope that will be enough to put you ahead of everyone else.

>>62313357
still I would like my schema to reflect this fact, like a check constraint with a function/query?

>>62313310
You're thinking backwards. Most companies only open internship applications to people currently enrolled in school.

If you have a degree already you can't even get a good internship, maybe at a shit company.

Internships are basically forms of headhunting for big companies. They take interns from well known schools, watch them for a few months and then later decide if they want to hire them. They're looking for the amazing ones who they can hire full time later.

>>62313364
>Interns at big companies in high CoL areas can make over 100k a year.
So this is what confuses me.
100k / year is a very well paid position, why call it an internship?
>jobs for university students
>>62313391
This is mostly what it is here as well.
We also have internships for unskilled labor though.
For students, you can skip an elective course and then work for free somewhere as part of your education, or get paid to work part time.
Getting a job once you have an education is not hard, but getting an internship at the right company might make it easier to keep working there.

What does he mean by "test program?" Does that mean make another int main inside the bubble sort source file? Or just make another random "main" source file?

It's a fine deal if you want a PS Vita and it's in good condition. Better if it's a first gen model.

>>62313803
>make another int main inside the bubble sort source file

does not compute
you can use a test framework, or just add a couple of other functions that call your bubble sort function (which should not be the main function). Each function is a separate test case, you pass in your array or whatever and check whether the elements are other after calling the bubblesort function.

>>62306707
I'm looking at solar chargers and I'm seeing chargers anywhere from 7-65 watts and from 15-1000$

how much wattage do you really need to charge a pocket powerbank or cell phone or maybe a vape battery or two and respectable speed?

also if you know a good one please post it

>>62313870
>whether the elements are other
>whether the elements are ordered

you will have functions like

main()
bubbleSort(...)
test1(...) //test ordered list
test2(...) //test reverse ordered list
test3(...) //test signed numbers
...

each test is a call to bubblesort and an assert
test(){
array = [3,2,1]

sortedArray = bubblesort(array)
assert(sortedArray, [1,2,3])
}

>>62313870
>>62313905
I'm actually just taking it as he wants us to make 4 separate programs, where we make a separate program for three different sorts, then for some reason make a "main" program with all three of them included. Why? I don't know, but it makes more sense than what I asked. Because otherwise it sounds inane if it isn't OOP.

Because light is a pain in the ass to work with on even a basic level, let alone trying to replicate all the years of painstaking improvements we've made to traditional microprocessors.

My grandma found a phone on the street, initially she called the police (not 911 obviously, but the line for casual shit) but they were like 'keep it you old bitch', because they don't care. Anyway, shit's locked and she gave it to me with the idea that I might be able to get it unlocked (without wiping all the data), call somebody on the contacts list, and get it back to the owner.

Is there an easy way to get that shit unlocked? I tried googling around but all I get is poo in loo forums that I'm not too sure about, and I'm not about to do all kinds of crazy shit just to get some strangers phone unlocked. It's some cheap Chinese phone that runs on android, by the way.

I have a small server with 2x ethernet ports. I thought it would be good to give my VMs its own ethernet port so I plugged it all in. The VMs can connect to the internet but I can't remote connect to them anymore via vbox rdp.

Is it possible to install a custom rom on the newest fire tablet? I've read that the bootloader may have been locked, I kind of want a cheap tablet but don't like fire OS

nvm
Thank god for Avidemux

what happened?

>>62315488
mine does, I don't see why they wouldn't use it, it's convenient when switching phones

Why is Heaven used so much in benchmarking? Its a 8 year old benchmark and pretty much everything you can buy runs it smoothly now.

Is it because its free? does it scale really well or something? Will we still use it in 5 years time?

So my uni advices on taking a laptop with an Quadro M1200 and it is around 2000 $ but I was wondering if I wouldn't be good enough with a 1070 for 1500 $

Best way to download webms from /gif/?

I really dont want to go through each one and download them individually

Hmmmmm
Have you checked dmesg directly after the crash ? What does it says ?
Also, are your iptables fine (very unlikely they aren't but still)

an advantage to using an older benchmark is that more/older things have been tested with it
it also allows for testing lower power stuff like ultrabooks, there are still a minimum requirement for benchmarking tools

Well, I'll let my mom take care of that one then. I ain't about to start calling motherfuckers up.
>>62315474
I don't know the pin, so I can't even stick it an another phone. It's not 0000.
>if the owner really cared then they would have called it already
My grandma didn't find it today, she just gave it to me today (or my mom did rather). God knows how long she's been holding on to that shit. The phone was also off when she found it apparently.

Too bad I guess. The phone seems to be pretty cheap, so it's not the worst loss in the world at least. Shame about any pictures they might have had on there, I suppose, but too bad.

I learned about chocolatey today, should I uninstall all the 7zip, browser, everything it supports and reinstall with choco?

You can always try some fastboot adb bullshit

Here's a chunk of the dmesg output that looked potentially interesting. 192.168.2.101 is my wifi interface, ethernet is .100 but doesn't get mentioned.

I just bricked my x200's BIOS, one long beep, two short.

somebody help please

Depends on what you're using it for. There can be a pretty big difference between gaming and professional cards, depending on the application. They are designed for two wildly different sets of tasks. If they're suggesting you spend that much on a professional card, it does not bode well.

How do I clean my work take?

>>62315933
It's for VFX and I know professional card are suposed to be better than their counterpart in gaming but the M1200 is based on a 960m that's like 3 to 4 time less powerful than a 1070.

Frankly, she's not even that attractive.

The 1070 is certainly a massively more powerful card in general, but if the applications they expect you to use are specifically designed to be compatible with professional cards, there could be some issue. I'd look into the recommended requirements pages of the applications you're going to be using.
