Looking for a textbook:
The Politics of United States Foreign Policy (4th, 5th or 6th edition) by Jerel Rosati and James M. Scott.
Tried a torrent from Demon oid but it's not downloading properly.
Thanks, /wst/
Tried helping out in other threads. Bumping this up.
Ehh, never mind. I'll see if I can find it cheap once I'm on campus.
The torrent never started download. No peers. Tried to get a friend to try but no luck,
Don't know what to read.
Recommend some dense book.
I prefer cyberpunk, hard science-fiction, cosmopera.
Something like "Diaspora" Greg Egan, "Schismatic" Bruse Sterling, "Deepness in the Sky" Vernor Vinge.
Neuromancer
>>172581
Read already.
>>172580
you do know that Bruce Sterling wrote other books after "Schismatrix", right? check out "Holy Fire", "The Caryatids" and "Zeitgeist" at least.

Where would you guys suggest I can obtain a crack for a program like say office that doesn't rape my system with viruses.
Thank you.

I have used it for years, no viruses
>>172572
what is open office?
>>172572
>still using openoffice
Get with the times gramps, its all about LibreOffice now.
I posted this on /gd/ but the beginner questions thread has reached bump limit.
Is it possible to make black pixels totally transparent and grey pixels semi-transparent on this picture?
Something like this?
>>172571
Yep. How did you do it?
>>172573
Made it grayscale.
Added an alpha (transparency) channel.
Had black as the primary tool color.
Told the pencil tool to "color erase".
Did.
If it works in something other than my old hacked GIMP, I don't know.
I have a backup for my phone(S7 edge) in the form of a .bak file. I factory reset my phone so now I need to put it back on but the program I used is a free trial and only puts 3 contacts on. What program can I use or what should I do to restore it?
bumperino
.bak isn't standardized. aka you need the program you made that backup with
hello anons,
i am getting a graphics tablet, but i hesitate between
>wacom intuos pro small
-working area : 157 mm x 98 mm/6.2 x 3.9 in
>wacom intuos pro medium
-working area: 224 x 140 mm/8.8 x 5.5 in
i have a 1080p 21.5 inch Widescreen Monitor
but what really makes me anxious is the working area, i am rather experienced at traditional art, and i am going to be doing digital art so having a small working area where i wouldn't be comfortable scares me a bit...
give me your advice anons!
>>172544
Yeah you don't really want to get a small surface if you can afford a larger one.
If you're unsure about being able to afford the medium then the small will still do fine and you can sell it on Ebay or equivalent later.
The problem with the small is that it pretty much forces you to draw with the wrist. Having said that, you can still zoom in and work like that if you don't mind it.
Check the /ic/ editable sticky on 'Tools of the trade' chapter.
>>172583
thanks!
>>172544
Get a Thinkpad x220t or x230t, and then you'll have a 12" pressure-sensitive Wacom tablet with a screen behind it.
You literally draw on your image, just like with traditional materials.
It's got DisplayPort, so you can use your existing monitor too.

Requesting a OP is a faggot pic that looks like its from a comic and has the little white boy riding a bike that says "You're a faggot, and my mom says faggots go to hell" thank

Slight hijack, does anyone have the source video for this GIF? It's warning about the dangers of rock music or something like that iirc.
What is the name of this specific nebula/space image?
I want to make a good relatively high quality phone background of it, but I can't find the original image.
In my search though, I did find a few variations of it, so I'll dump them
2/5
This one appears to be cropped a little differently than the OP image, with a little bit of a saturation filter
3/5
This one shows more outside of OP and 2, cropped in a square
4/5
This is the largest resolution of the photo I could find, but it is mirrored compared to the others.
This is probably the one the closest to the source
Howdy friends,
Just made some upgrades to my PC today and I'm having some trouble getting things to fire up.
Old Build (worked):
CPU - Intel Core i7-950 3.06Ghz Quad-Core
CPU Cooler - Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Motherboard - Asus Sabertooth X58 ATX LGA1366
Memory - OCZ Gold 6GB (3 x 2GB) DDR3-1600
Storage - Crucial MX100 256GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Storage - Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card - EVGA GeForce GTX 480 1.5GB
Case Cooler Master HAF X ATX Full Tower
Power Supply - Corsair Professional 850W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX
New Build (not powering on):
CPU - Intel Core i5-6500 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 DDR3 ATX LGA1151
Storage - Crucial MX100 256GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Storage - Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Memory - Kingston HyperX 16GB DDR4-2400 2x8GB
Video Card - EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 8GB SC Gaming ACX 3.0
Case - Cooler Master HAF X ATX Full Tower
Power Supply - Corsair Professional 850W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX
So here's what is going on. I've plugged everything in, both motherboard cables, the CPU is in and heat sink is in place, tried to power it up, and I get nothing. Here are some things I've tried:
I've checked the new MoBos battery for a piece of plastic underneath it.
I've ensured both MoBo cables are securely fastened.
I've tried firing it up w/ and w/o GPU in.
I've tried firing it up w/ and w/o RAM in.
I've tried firing it up w/ and w/o any of the case fans plugged in.
I've tried both directions w/ the power switch cable.
I went back and checked to see if I bricked my PSU. There's a light on my old MoBo that glows green when it has power, and sure enough it glowed when I had it plugged in.
Any advice would be very helpful. I can provide pictures as needed.
>Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 DDR3 ATX LGA1151
Is this accurate? If so, you got the wrong RAM for your board.

My bad, DDR3 Should not be in that title. One above is the one I have now. It says it supports DDR4-2400
solved. mobo was faulty
Anybody knows how to resolve that bug on steam where your screnn is black everywhere and loading forever?
Valves servers being shit. It's not a bug and it's not gonna get fixed.
Try restarting steam but that's all you can really do.
>>172517
I hope that's not your screen OP.
You know that crazylurk20 is your login name and now people only needs a password right?
>>172537
You think it's valve?
This bug was already doing it on my old computer so maybe.
>>172608
took the pic on google, it's not me.
This bug is really annoying if anyone knows why it's doing this please respond I can't do shit.
Could someone make it look like she broke her leg? you know, with a cast and all that stuff.
>>172514
>cast
I'm sorry OP, i tried but i can't do shit with paint atm
what for?
>>172514
I'm not that good but here
I'm building a new Skylake computer tower. New motherboard, CPU etc. Same hard drive case and power supply (800 watt).
In order to save money, I'm moving the hard drive that is in the Windows 7 computer I'm currently typing on and I'm moving that hard drive into the new computer and I'm installing Windows 10 on it. I have purchased a retail copy of Windows 10.
I realize that I can't simply move the hard drive as is. Windows won't let me do that. It will recognize that it is connected to a new motherboard. It's an OEM license of windows 7, so I can't legally move it. I'm not interested in illegally moving it. I've already paid for a new license of Windows 10.
How do I move the files that are currently on the hard drive in my current computer onto the wiped hard drive that will have a fresh installation of windows 10 on it if Windows Easy Transfer is not available in Windows 10?
I've never done a new install of Win10 but does it insist on formatting the whole disk, or can you create a new partition and stick your files in there while Win10 installs on the rest of the drive?
>>172490
>>172545
As this anon said, you'll either have to create a new partition and install W10 on the new partition, then just copy paste the files as needed in the other one then delete the old W7 partition.
The easiest thing tho would be just copy the files you need on an external drive, wipe everything and then move the files back again.
This is more safe as you are less likely to fuck up the partitioning and delete things you don't want to
who is that?
Could someone please crop the blue guy out and make the image transparent? I'd really appreciate it. Gonna post a second image in a second.
I posted this image second since I think it'll take a higher level of skill.. I'd like someone to please get rid of the Korean text at his feet without having to cut his feet off entirely, if possible. And again crop him out entirely and make the image transparent.
I'm a big fan of him and it'd mean a lot. Sorry, I should have taken the photoshop class at school.

>Sorry, I should have taken the photoshop class at school.
If you actually want to learn, it's not hard. Gimp is free and there are guides on Youtube. Search for gimp anime render guides.
>>172493
Removing text isn't necessarily harder, but it can be time consuming. You mostly just use the clone tool though.
I copied the zig-zag pattern from the left to the right and resized/rotated it.
I'll try to clean up the black on the first one too, didn't notice it until I started the second.
I have a Power Color Radeon RX 480 and a BFG Tech GTX 285. Can I use both so I don't have to buy a display to VGA adapter?
>>172476
so your monitor is vga only and you got a rx 480. ok well first of all rx 480's only have display port and dvi-i so you wont be able to get the card to display on your vga montior with any adapter. and no you cant run both the cards but just display the rx 480 through the 285s ports, thats not how it works at all. what you can do is sell your gtx 285 and get a cheap hdmi monitor because dvi-i to vga or display port to vga adapters wont work unless it also has a signal converter in which case it will cost more than a cheap hdmi monitor while a display port to hdmi adapter can be bought for like $1
i have two monitors. One is HDMI plugged into the 480. The other is a VGA/DVI-D and is plugged into the 285
yeah, I just looked up the Display to VGA cable, 14.95... Guess Ill just do that.
