So that "WD Universal Firmware Updater for Windows" in https://support.wdc.com/downloads.aspx?DL

I need to have windows installed on a external HDD and then run it right? I can't just run it within windows to update my HDD right?

>>62316527
looks ok
the ramping you see is normal for hdd's, though the spikes aren't, they aren't too bad there, could just be that the disk is being accessed by other things during your test, causing hiccoughs

first check for logical reasons for slowness, namely;
1. fragmentation
2. low space remaining (while having low space alone doesn't make things slow, this typically means you're both writing to the end of the disk, where it's slowest, and also that you have less contiguous space left, causing increased fragmentation)

When will we get DX:HR tier augmentations IRL?

Can I make money from a Facebook meme page? Like, could I make a living from a Facebook page?

>>62317544
Not directly
Many of those sites make money from occasional sponsored posts, but I don't think they get anywhere near enough to make a living off it

And even if, it's extremely risky since memes are, well, memes, they have no real value, get stolen and then forgotten forever

This is more of a /sci/ stupid question, but they don't have a /sqt/...

If I have a circuit with two elements (let's say bulbs for simplicity) connected in series, how do electrons "know" to share their voltage between them? When they reach the first one, what gives them the foresight to be able to say "there's another bulb coming so I'd better only give this bulb half my voltage"?

I'm in the hurricane's path and didn't secure a proper weather radio. I was going to see if I could do it on my phone.

Is there any way to stream HDMI to a Android phone? I basically want to play some Windows games (and maybe PS3 if wireless HDMI is possible) on my phone, but currently solutions I've tried either have too much input lag, doesn't work half of the time or it's downright shit.

Something with interchangable hotkeys, and a nice interface to access the storage of my files, and maybe even a 'record' feature for incoming audio if I could get small snippets to edit/replay on demand.

I want to use this program which uses CUDA:

My GPU is compatible but the installer for CUDA says it needs to overwrite the current display driver. If I discontinue using it should I uninstall CUDA, or is it any harm if I don't?

So I just woke up and found my computer super slow to boot, took about 2 minutes (have ssd)

I thought it was my SSD failing or something so I tried to run SSDLife when I got in but it wouldn't load up. I then noticed that one of my 3TB drives activity was at 100% (no read/writing going on at all) and I couldn't access it. I also couldn't access any program that accessed disks at all. Disk management wouldn't come up either, it showed up in device manager but I couldn't disable it, that's all I could see.

It even makes the UEFI super slow to operate so I disconnected the drive and everything is better.

That's about how much I sold mine for.
Seems like a decent deal and I hope you meant 3.60

Not sure where else to ask, so.

My younger brother is heading off to uni soon and my mom asked me to have a look at cheap laptops (upwards of £300 but maybe a little over) for him to do very basic stuff. He doesn't game or anything so it'll be mostly a facebook/word/movie machine.

I was thinking a thinkpad but there's no way she'd go for anything refurbished/second hand and I have no clue how good the new ranges are, plus most of them seem to be way overpriced. I haven't looked into laptops since like 2012 so I have no idea myself.

Any suggestions? UK if you couldn't already tell.

how to make solus not have such a tiny resolution in virtual box, other distros you can just resize the screen but not with this.

so for some reason the search results in Windows 10 on one specific account are several months out of date, and won't update to new shortcuts
It's definitely not the index, because when I made a test account and used the search bar there everything came up just fine, I was able to see applications that I'd installed recently
what the fuck could be wrong
this is driving me insane

this may be a dumb question but what typically causes a server to "go down"?

i work at a small Steel manufacturing plant doing payroll/accounting/etc. we have 3 IT guys (one being a "network admin") and every few weeks our server will just "go down" and we'll have to call one of them to come in and then it works again

im just looking for an understanding in why that happens, and what they're doing to fix it.

I'm under the impression that fps in games is tied to a screens hz.

So like, even if my computer could run a game at like 240fps, if I have a 60hz monitor I'm only going to actually be getting/experiencing 60fps because that's what my display is capable of. Is this correct?

With that in mind, are there currently any good 4k displays capable of 120fps/hz action? I'm currently in the process of building a retarded monster of a PC (basically just grabbing the best/most expensive component for every category and ramming it into one system), and I want to make sure I'm going to be getting out of it what I'm putting in.

The thing is, using a combination of the Logical increments guide and 'lodes o mony' it's not hard to build a decent computer. But I'm looking to get something like a 40-70 inch TV to run games at 4k at speeds greatly exceeding the 60fps my current screen is capable of, and I don't know how possible that even is.

I want to play the sims 3 on me laptop but the specs say I need "2.4 GHz P4 processor or equivalent."

>>62319098
no, sims 3 is an old game and is horribly optimized. 2 1.60ghz cores does not make a single 3.2ghz core, performance wise it would be horrible.

but jesus christ dude what the fuck kind of laptop do you have? how old is that shit?

I know that I asked for this because i'm in Uni but how far can you expect to go/earn when you don't have a degree?

I've been installing different distros over a couple days and they are all still listed in the boot options. Is it just a listing, or does it actually still exist on the drive?

Are threads and images taking forever to load for anyone else or is it just me?

>>62319222
being actually skilled is way more valuable than a degree, in the software development world.

look at how many famous people dropped out of college to pursue their dreams (facebook guy, apple guy, woz, etc)

the issue is that degrees improve your chances of getting interviews, so if youre not good at showing your skills (by listing open source work, great personal projects, self employment, etc) then youll never get to the interviews in which you show off your comepetency

software development is currently flooded with idiot "self taught" morons who watched a few youtube videos and decided that they're devs now. if you dont have a degree youre basically going to be grouped in with these people until you find someone that gives you a chance so you can start listing experience on your resume

There is a chat service called Chatango.
In the "help" section, it reads
>Your private chat history is stored locally on the device on which the messages were sent and received.
>Currently your chat history is not saved on Chatango's servers.

How would that be done technically? I don't save cookies, and my chat history gets erased when i close my web browser.
So that suggests the chat history gets saved as cookies, right?
But i just realized something strange about that. How can cookies be used to save a chat history, which can contain potentially several months worth of conversations?
Wouldn't that require the chat history to be saved server-side?

>>62319222

Basically what >>62319297 said.

The important thing in Tech is to prove you know what you're doing. A degree can 'prove' that. Compare it to art jobs: an artist doesn't walk into an interview with a resume, they walk in with a portfolio. A giant sampler of work they've done previously.

As long as you have a solid portfolio, so to speak, you don't NEED a degree to get tech jobs.

I didn't want to make a new thread for this, but I'm looking for a new mouse for gaming/general use. I don't have very particular requirements except that I do want it to have a sixth or seventh button that's fully customizable so I can use it as a push-to-talk. Most mice with just 6 buttons seem to have the 6th as a dedicated DPI-switch as far as I can tell, and I'm not sure how to know which have buttons that are actually customizable. Anyone have any suggestions?

What is the difference between returning x and &x here?

int main(){
   int *x = new int(10);
   std::cout << x << std::endl;
   std::cout << &x << std::endl;

   return 0;
}

Output doesn't really matter since it changes every time but here it is:

 0x5623eb891030
 0x7ffc0bb2d4f0 

>>62319484
I'm using Steelseries rival 700. Kind of expensive though, but it has three buttons on the left side. I don't really play games, but I like the fact that it has a menu built into the mouse where you can change profiles since I use Linux and can't run their drivers. Mouse is pretty heavy though since they added shit like vibration to it, but the OLED screen is nice for the menu feature.

>>62319502
x is an int*.
&x is an int**. It points to a pointer to an int.

>>62319587
A pointer to a pointer? When was that created? Whenever I assigned x the pointer to the new int or whenever I called &x?

>>62318929
Trying in a minute

>>62318954
How decent we are talking about? About the GPU, I think I need a upgrade anyway

>>62319637
Whenever you call &x. That creates an unnamed temporary variable, which is a pointer to wherever x is.

int x;
int *ptr_to_x;
int **ptr_to_ptr_to_x;
ptr_to_x = &x;
ptr_to_ptr_to_x = &ptr_to_x;

>>62319657
Ahh I see thank you. I assume everything is allocated on stack as well unless I use "new" right?

>>62319751
That's correct.
That's why it's invalid to do something like this.

int *foo()
{
    int x;
    return &x;
}
void bar()
{
    int *ptr = foo();
    *ptr // Invalid dereference!
}

x is allocated in the stack frame of foo. That stack frame disappears after foo returns, so you've got a pointer into invalid memory.
Stack allocation is very fast. It might be less flexible than heap allocation with new, but it's useful for making sure you don't leak memory since it ensures the variable will be destructed.

Put your IT guys on retainer and you'll see your problems vanish. Basically, contracted IT professionals have no incentive to permanently fix things because then they'd be out of a job. They probably just reboot the server and wait until it dies again.

We are using discord already (dropped Slack for that - had few issues with performance and it is nice to have chat history without paying money) but it is laggy too often and I just don't like their private policy.

>>62321480
Do you mean the letters in a font? Depends, most are vectors in which case they don't have a resolution really so they scale infinitely. Some are bitmap (generally those that l33t hackers use), those do have a resolution, but you can still scale those effectively by just doubling the pixels and shit.

That png *was* from the backup anon, lel

Well i guess i'll have to redo that one from scratch then, it's basically just a couple notes though and there should be another template for this particular file flying around somewhere

The more pressing concern for me is to un-tangle this unholy mess that is the file structure of my previous build, seriously the index has to be rebuilt aswell because it didn't even find any files yet (the size is correct/consistent with the one of the old hdd though so i know everything is pretty much there)

I want to save the comments of a wiki page, but the page is broken on desktop, only saying "Invalid tag extension name: comments" instead of displaying the comments. On chrome mobile it displays, and even after enabling "Request desktop site" the comments display in the desktop format. But literal desktop browsers don't display it.

Is there any way for me to save the desktop version of the comments of this wiki page? If there was a ctrl + s function on Chrome mobile that would do it, but if I could emulate Chrome mobile behavior on desktop I could enable request desktop site there and save it that way, provided the emulator allows saving webpages. I've already installed a Firefox addon to request and save a mobile version of the page, but it is a compromise, since the comments don't visually have chains, everything is one big vertical block.

It happens. They can't afford to just let your whole system die every time the power flicks off at a slightly inconvenient moment. Usually it will just roll back uncompleted updates. If you need to you can throw down with the last system restore point. Also did you bother with any of the rollups?

It has JUST enough onboard graphics that it can basically show all basic web shit and a desktop. I don't think it could pull off games. BUT it can hold shit and server shit. It originally had medical data and I wiped it all. Same with another server. They are meant to be together.

I'll be middle-aged by then. Just in time to get a dick Aug.

why can't I post images sometimes? I get waiting for and looking up sys.4chan.org until I get secure connection failed message. It appears to be random as sometimes I can post images just fine.

Can websites/CDNs track if their files have been downloaded easily? I'm still learning how to not be totally inept with computers, but I'm trying to download graphic design videos from Skillshare.com, and I can just access the direct video through dev tools. I doubt the website's security is that great, but they're using AmakaiHD.net to host the video, and I don't know if that site has tools for tracking the videos.

Just as an example, the video link is just a standard direct link to an .mp4, with ?pubId=3695997568001&videoId=3873474225001 appended to the end of it. Removing the extra parts still lets me get to the video directly, but I don't know what would happen if I were to download it.

Normally, I wouldn't care about losing my account, but they have my card information for the free trial, and their terms of service explicitly prohibit downloading files. Worst case scenario, I'll just record through OBS as I watch, but downloading is obviously more convenient.

What's the bottleneck when I drag a folder of 10,000 videos into a playlist in a video player.

>>62326795
Yes amakai can see when you dl a file. Dunno if they provide that info to the website but if you can get the url without any query params and download it with curl/a different browser how will they link it to your account?
Also if you know that you can get the file after stripping off the params then you have already accesesed and I really doubt they would log enough info to differentiate between a partial and full dl.

>>62326795
keep in mind that streaming is just a contrained form of downloading
that is, it's still downloading
you can only really guess is someone is 'downloading' vs. streaming something
for example, lets say the server operator sees one user who;
- downloads a 20 minute video over 18 minutes, then 2 minutes after that, starts another download
and another user who;
- downloads a 20 minute video in 4 minutes, and 1 second later starts another download
it can be inferred that the first user is streaming, while the second is downloading

so if you want to be especially careful, don't download the videos faster than real time (that is, slow it down so it takes about 20 minutes to download a 20 minute video)

>>62326880
>>62326795
ps. if the service allows for buffering the entire video without playing them, then don't even bother, since buffering the whole thing and downloading the whole thing looks identical on the server side
in that case, download full speed, but still consider waiting between downloads

>>62326795
>>62326880
ps. ps.
be careful if you plan on sharing the video, they might contain user-identifying information in their metadata
what this means is that if they get ahold of your shared copy, they will know who leaked them

Thanks, anons. I figured that there wasn't much they could do, but given my lack of understanding on this stuff, I just wanted to double check. Skillshare isn't even that great of a site, and I'm sure it's on its way out with how often it holds sales/promos, but I wanted to get a few videos they have, since they somehow talked some of my favorite designers into doing a few series for them.

But even though each series is made of 2–3 minute chunks, it doesn't seem like they buffer all the way if you're not actively watching. And all this was also always going to be for personal use, just so that I have references to go back to without needing to pay for stuff I've already seen.

>What's fucked about it?
What kind of a question is that? Your file isn't playing right. Probably has some bits scrambled in it. As in the video you want doesn't exist on your drive anymore, just the scrambled version. You can try running it through vlc, but if it doesn't play in MPV, you're probably not going to get anywhere without redownloading it from an uncorupted source.

Immediate advice needed, someone accessed my email account and then within minutes reset my facebook account(I don't even use fb anymore) as well. I was supposed to be at college but luckily I bunked today so I saw the notification on my phone and blocked their system(they were using linux) and reset my email and fb passwords. I even added my phone number as a recovery phone number in case this happens again, something I didn't want to do.

Anyways my concern is that I have no idea how the fuck they got access to my gmail account, my password was pretty strong and was unique as well. I'm afraid they'll try to access my account again.

Any advice on how I can prevent my account from getting hacked? I haven't enabled two factor authentication because phones aren't allowed in my college and I sometimes log in from there but I'll enable it as a last resort.

>>62327527

That's the confusing part, the torrent literally just finished, but this has happened before in a few other rare cases

You could just be downloading shit torrents. Something could be wrong with your drive and that's just the first symptom you're noticing. Your GPU could be dying. You tried this shit on another PC? And I go back to the first suggestion. Try it on goddamn MPV.

Works perfectly in MPV. Interesting.

May be something wrong with your install. Completely uninstall MPC-HC and install klite codec pack.

>>62327555
In what context? If they were talking about ubuntu boxes he might have meant snap meme^Wapps.

>>62327617
What exactly makes my password weak though? It's not an English word, it has special characters and numbers and it's length is 12. I thought that would be sufficient.

>>62327650
Its small and the characteristics are tiny. Humans and computers don't think about passwords the same way.

>>62327665
Well I guess that means I'll have to change my passwords again. Any idea how they managed to access my account though? Doesn't gmail like lock an account after a certain number of failed tries.

>>62327658
Because a x399 with a TR 1900x gives you 8core/16thread at a better cost with 64 pcie lanes. Good for multiple nvme ssds.

You could feed and shelter a dozen displaced storm victims with that money.

What is the best browser for android? All I find are shitty browsers meant for desktops or assume you have high speed data.

What is a good browser for android 4.4 that is minimalist and just does simple shit and isn't a botnet or ad riddled? I tried a text browser, but that got me nowhere on 4chan and tint browser hasn't been updated in years and won't let me use the file selection here.

>>62327644
he was talking about sql shit, like SRSS and MOSS

and then said that they might also be tasked with making "spin apps". so i just pretended like i knew wtf that was.

>>62327700
They accessed your account with the password. I don't know how gmail works, I avoid google services. Sorry Anon.
Since they changed the password, it might not have been someone trying to subvert information or spy on you. I don't know Anon, maybe just you drew a short stick.

They didn't change my gmail password but they did reset my fb account. They also deleted the message we get on gmail when someone accesses your account from a different system but luckily I saw it before it was deleted. Maybe they were going to change my email password as well but I stopped it before they did that.

Anyways thank you for your help anon. I'm just kind of paranoid right now. It's the first time this has happened to me.

I setup a desktop and everything for root, which is bad apparently.
Many applications and things don't work as root because its 'dangerous'
So what do I do now?
I want to be able to open those programs but have no idea how to properly setup another user with a desktop and everything.

>>62327857
adduser mynewusersname
Then logout/reboot and log in as that user.

I tried that but the desktop didn't load so its not like I could do anything in there.

So yesterday night, my hdd showed 100% disk usage. It's not the OS disk (i have an ssd for that) and i wasn't using anything off of it so it seemed weird. I tried opening up a folder from the hdd but it kept loading forever.

I thought it was weird so I restarted my computer. Windows stuck at "restarting" so I pressed the reset button - then it took about 2 minutes to boot (vs 5-10 seconds before) and windows didn't even recognize the disk. I restarted and checked BIOS - it didn't even show up there.

The disk seemed to do a very soft click at some constant rhythm too. All pointed to the disk being dead.

I removed the SATA cable and turned on the pc with the disk just being on the PSU - no clicks (no idea if that means anything). I tried another SATA cable and turned on the pc again - normal boot speeds, no clicks at all, disk works fine, no high disk usage.

I checked crystaldisk immediately and it seems ok.

Can it be just the cable, or is it some sign the disk is dying and I was given a second chance to backup my shit?

with overclocks the gap is larger, I haven't seen much about the stable oc's of the 1900x.

>>62327804
Of course they do, but I think I've had enough of this i7 930 and x58 board. Even hurricane victims would understand my plight.

>>62327998
Doesn't matter. Make a backup anyway. If you care about losing something, ALWAYS have AT LEAST one backup. If you don't care enough to save up for an extra HDD, you don't really care about your shit.

>>62317544
You can but it would be an extremely long and tedious process without a certain outcome of profit, you'd need to make a big enough following so that someone offers to buy the page and start shilling their products, you could spend months and months creating your following and then sell it for a couple hundred if that, no worth it imo

My phone rebooted itself while i was using it and is now bootlooping (1st gen moto g with cm12). Is there any way to flash the mofo without authorizing ADB or a trick to just top the boot loop?
No SD card so that is out.

I have a FPV done. I want to overlay open street maps data on top of video. How to I send GPS location of drone to me in real time?

my nigga, mine (pa 4.4) started having the systemUI constantly crashing a couple months ago
If you can boot to recovery you might be able to adb into there. I don't know if it uses the main OS accepted keys or not though.

Usually passwords with "random" characters are less susceptible to brute force attacks and passwords that contain recognizable patterns like words put you more at risk

>>62327630
If I send myself uncompressed photos, do they stay on the telegram cloud forever? Is there a limit of photos ?

>>62327650

it's too short - all that matters is the length of the password

ofc a few symbols protect you from the possibility of a bruteforcer trying lowercase letters only.

i often use spaces and 1-2 more special characters combined with 4-5 words.

my dropbox password could be "my fantabulous files reside here!@#"

35 characters and way easier to remember

Why is my download speed also down to the max when I'm uploading? I'm uploading at 100 kbps (that's my upload speed limit) and my download speed limit is 1700 kbps, and when I'm uploading my download speed goes down to 0 - can barely open google.
Pretty sure this wasn't the case in the past. right? I noticed this yesterday.
Is this some new internet technology meme?

easiest way to root so you can have a device wide adblock/ anything else that needs root. Also i can use newer version of android on my cheap old device.

>>62328818
>device wide adblock
What do you mean?
>i can use newer version of android on my cheap old device
And what if you use newer version of android? All android versions are crap.

>>62328865
>What do you mean?
Hosts file.
>All android versions are crap.
No new real features since 4.4, the two versions after that got faster due to bytecode improvements. The new one doesn't any better.

I like putting aosp on my droid phones because it makes me feel like I am more in control of my life in a little way.

200-300 everything in that price range contains Intel Celeron or i3.
They all come with 500GB HDD and 4GB DDR3.
They IntelHD plays anything up to 2012 in terms of video games at 720p.
They will play REMUX or Blurays flawlessly.
1080p youtube is no more since the last update,it will stutter on lower end models.
The batteries is the down side of all of them,very small capacity.
If you can aith for AMD new laptop offerings in a month or two.

optional:get used and get new battery for it.
