Ok, I need to know how to decrease the size of Standby Memory.
And, don't give me a lecture.
I know what the fuck it's used for. Just tell me how to decrease the size to... say... 2GB.
When left alone for a while, it fills up almost all available memory, and then it doesn't dump. I've had BSOD and hard crashes saying I'm out of available memory when my "used" memory is like... half of my total memory.
I would prefer something I can either do graphically or in the Command Prompt.

Mpc-hc is throwing hissy fit when playing 10bit 1080p HEVC video.
Basically bashes my 2 ULV cores on my Celeron 2957U to 100% making the video stop run at 2 fps per second.
The player itself is up to date to most stable version.
Running mad vr with the setting on the install gentoo wiki and so far never had problems.
Disabling DXVA does nothing,updating Inter drivers also did nothing.
Now newest Lav filters log on git shows has changes considering this particular format.
When downloading them and trying to play with VLC the file shows artifacts and it is unwatchable.
Downloaded Pot player and the files work fine.
What can be the problem?
Mad VR,LAV or something else

Laptops, how much is enough?
My father is planning on buying a new laptop, so I want to find one that would last him a looong time
No need for GPU, iGPU will do fine, but is the meme resolution 768 still fine or should I look for FHD, and the biggest question is the processors, holy fuck laptop processors are bullshit with no end i3, i5, m? Anything else in processors?
Very basic uses for the laptop, basically no workload except maybe some MS Office, but I want it to last a long time so some power and a little upgradeability like a slot for SSD and additional ram is a plus
Not really asking for a specific model, just what parts to look for/avoid and what brands to stay away from

the meme resolution would be the best for him since font scaling in wangblows doesn't work for every app correctly and if he's old he might be struggling with sight a little and the tiny ass text in 1080p might frustrate him. For word and browsing my celeron m 540 from 2007 works fast enough so just buy whatever is cheap on the shelf, it'll work just fine.
Honestly, /g/, I need assistance.
I have recently gotten and installed Ubuntu, and it's a blast compared to the Wangblows 10 I used before.
My question is, how does a total pleb such as myself get into console commands and compilers? I frequent the /g/entoo wiki for advice, but any advice here is appreciated.
Should I just memorize the syntax commands or do something else as well? Thanks, /g/.

I've recently used lenovo g50-30 which is a fairly recent and had some intel N processor, which was fucking shit and seemed worse than my fathers old laptop which is probably more than 5 years for sure, so I don't want the laptop to be slow as shit
FHD wouldn't be a problem for him, I just think that higher than 768 would feel nicer and more of an upgrade

Why is CAS latency so fucking high on most DDR4 modules?
Looking at the mhz speed DDR4 seems like a big step forward but CAS latency's are equaly important or maybe even more important and are often much higher on DDR4 modules compared to DDR3 modules
What is some good VM software to use? I had VMWare 7 ages back, and I just installed it about half an hour ago to try it out again.
It crashed my computer before installation was complete and upon reboot, my laptop's keyboard and touchpad drivers had been lost, or corrupted, or disabled or something, and yet there was no VMWare entry in the Remove Programs list. Had to do a fucking system restore from a week ago to get everything running again, so I don't even know what I've lost at this point.
So I'm about to update cyanogenmod how does it work?
Does it reformat everything and it's an easy upgrade? Or do I have to root again and everything

Not sure if this translates, but this is how most ROM updates work.
Download the latest version.
Place it on you phone.
Boot into TWRP.
Create backup using TWRP. (optional)
Flash new update. Wipe cache when asked.
>I don't think you have to flash SuperSU. I'm pretty sure CMOD has built in root, but not 100% sure
Recover from the backup you made. ONLY data. Do not leave anything except Data checked in for recovery. (again, optional, if you're afraid you might lose data as a result of updating, which is unlikely)
Reflash xposed framework if you use it. Wipe cache.
Reboot to system and you're good.

tldr: high ram voltage - ded PSU or mobo?
I've been getting lots of bsods lately, at first I thought it's just the usual windows thing because memtest and linux ran just fine. But then I noticed very high memory voltage reported in bios - 2.6V while normal for DDR2 is 1.8-2.2V. All other voltages are OK.
I tried turning it off and on again, reseating ram, resetting cmos but what fixed it was reflashing. Or so I thought for two days until shit happened again, and this time reflashing did nothing.
As you can guess from my mention of ddr2, the mobo is fucking ancient and should have died long ago, although capacitors look okay.
PSU is pretty old too but back then it was the best most expensive highest watage thing available, also the three PSU-supplied voltages are within 3%.
What do?

Hi, how do I add Windows 7 to grub? I have Windows on sda and Arch on sdb.

>>51251841
Yeah but >muh mods
>>51251764
Despite the "muh data gathering" I find firefox has "actual" freedom in configurating it in many aspects. Yes, it might end with editing every variable field, but if anything bothers me, then a bit of lurking and voila You have what You wanted.
And it has loads of plugins which I don't have to worry about.
By worry I mean that there was an issue with Adblock(s) on Chrome, which were moderated and removed at some points. While from Firefox POV there was no problem. Plus forks, forks everywhere.

It doesn't put the actual programs there but it puts the appdata
Very frustrating and I'm wondering why it does this, and if there's a way to move the appdata to one folder, or at least have future programs put it all in one folder, or if there's anything I can do
>>51251994
Oh shit, I replied to this wrong. sorry.

>And what are forks?
Copy already existing code and start Your own project.
Adblock has a lot of forks. AB Plus, AB Edge and some others which I have not heard about it.
>Is this a security issue or just privacy?
This question is actually so great that it baffled me.
Because by security we mean if a 3rd person reach for Your information.
So, Google with their Chrome is not a 3rd person in that matter.
So this is mostly a privacy issue then.

A cheap one. I am extremely fond of Logitech RX-250. My local shop is selling them with insanely cheap (25 PLN) and they are durable. So far based on 6 (bought for my family and replacements) mouses only one got worn out due to excessive FPS gaming.
Does anyone have any expirience downloading from Niconico? Every video I download with youtube-dl is very low quality, and I don't know if peak hours are still going on or if my source is just bad (I'm downloading VHS ripped anime)

Cool man thanks for the replies
so I don't have a rootkit right? I'm gonna scan anyway but the reason I was concerned was because I remembered a while back someone was putting viruses in jpgs
something to do with the way the site opened them or something, can't recall exactly but it was addressed by mods.
It was either a virus or a browser killer, pretty confident it was a virus.
>>51252416
You can always assume You could had some rootkit even before visiting /b/.
If You are such super precautions I'd advice to run some tools beginning from ComboFix, HijackThis, Spybot S&D(is this tool still viable?), Virus Removal Tools by Kaspersky
Plus M$ provides EMET:https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2458544
It may protect from certain attacks.

This is a brand new computer and just freaked out. I'll read up on those tools m8 thanks. I've done a lot of testing and have to say malware bytes kicks ass, what's your opinion?
>>51252648
well it's more like a section of speakers go like my front ones. The sub still plays and so do the rear speakers (they're ghetto house speakers from the deck)
The front speakers draw power from my amp

First of all, Common Sense. If You are not foolish enough to DL <movie>.exe files or open every mail then You are pretty much safe.
The tools itself are handy if You find some fie suspicious.

As far I know this is scanner not monitor. Haven't used it / tested it.
Okay so I just got a second monitor. I attached it to my mobo instead of my GPU. Will this affect gaming performance at all? If so, would it be GPU wise, or just CPU wise because my computer has to deal with having two monitors?
Can I get a rec on good (reliable/fast) usb 3.0 flash drives? 16+gb capacity.

I have never even heard about it. Just try one of the mainstream distros, nobody cares about e-status anymore
>>51253476
"Is there a free way" not one that doesn't expose you to significant risk. Provided your traffic is encrypted (a lot of traffic is nowadays) nobody on the network can inspect the contents; they can still see where traffic is headed unless you use a VPN.
>>51253540
Well shit, Ubuntu it is, then. Right?
>>51253560
All I'm worried about is them seeing what websites I visit.
I mean, I could use TOR but it doesn't work well with my accounts :<
>>51253587
You need a 3rd-party, like a VPN or a TOR node, to disguise the endpoint of traffic.
All the good VPNs that won't steal your data or do other fishy shit are paid VPNs.
Do you have good reason to suspect people are inspecting your traffic? It's not exactly a common thing for a layperson to do.

Where can I get windows 8.1? I had to delete my Ubuntu partition because Atom stopped working and I fucking hate sublime.
I'm stuck in the GRUB bootloader and need to override it with the windows installation. Then from command prompt I can go to the windows booter, then reinstall Ubuntu.
tl;dr where can I get windows 8.1 installation for free?
Why isn't there some text analyzer that can convert English to code?
>>51253684
English is insufficiently precise + determining arbitrary intent from natural language is vastly beyond current processing capabilities.
>>51253649
My suggestion to you is to not spend time/make friends with people who you feel won't respect your privacy or security.
>>51253709
What if you made some rules? like it would have to not be random English it would need to be precise
>>51253684
Such a tool would be targeted towards normies. And normies only want to use GUIs not code.

This is Firefox 43 with the MV4 skin and some custom CSS, anyone know how I can remove the extra space below and to the right of the address bar? In other words, how to make the address bar flush with the bottom and right sides.
>>51253741
A sufficiently precise, English-like language that is converted into functioning code is what a programming language with English conventions like Python is.
As you get less and less precise, you get more "natural" English but you also run into problems where the code isn't what you want / can't be as robust as you need.

So installed Apache and PHP manually and then after deciding that was retarded, I decided to go with XAMPP.
However, while I think I got rid of my manual installation of Apache when I run XAMPP I can't get the Apache server to run.
I literally just want to be able to throw Helloworld.php up there right now to see if it's working, is all. Does anyone know how I can get Apache XAMPP to run?

Holy shit, what?
>>51253741
That is what you call a programming language, friend.
>>51253774
*mx4 not mv4.
Also to be clearer, what I mean to say is that there are already extant programming languages which attempt to bridge the gap between something like C and spoken language instructions. There's just only so far you can go before you lose so much precision as to be useless.
The level of complexity that allows humans to extremely quickly and precisely decode language is the product of an immense amount of evolution to create a finely tuned system. Even then, humans rely on a whole host of things exterior to spoken language to decipher meaning (context, visual cues, life experience, asking questions, etc).

the 960 is not on the same tier as the 7970 and the 380 is a side grade
970 up Nvidia
290+ or 390+ AMD
but 7970 is more then enough.

The low-effort solution is to just learn as you need to do stuff. Whenever something comes up, a bit of quick googling and maybe a visit to whatever StackExchange site will generally sort you and help build your knowledge.

If that doesn't work, look in your bios if there is an option that relates to that.
If all above fails, google it.

use https everywhere, use wireshark and you can see your IP and what others can see if they sniff on the network you're running on.
Use SSH (PuTTY) instead of Telnet if you remote connect to stuff too, telnet is unencrypted and stores everything in cleartext.
Packet headers have information but that's all others will see, think of it like you're posting an item, others can see the address and the senders address but not what the package is.

You can do FHD and just adjust the text to be "bigger or smaller" and make it high contrast. Get him one with a 10 key, old people love that, and at least 17inch monitor if not larger. 4 gigs of ram, and nothing newer than windows 7. You get him 8.1 or 10 and he will hate you. As for a processor just about anything will work. As for the SSD whatever you buy just it will have a 2.5 HDD anyway and you can replace the with an SSD at any time.

As the OP says, spend at least ten seconds googling. Not to mention, just about every make/model combination has its own forum website you can search. I own a 2002 GMC envoy (selling soon), and I learned everything I know about wiring subs from trailvoy.com. There's also galantworld.com for my 03 Mitsubishi Galant, where I learned how to access the rear speakers to discon a blown one (also how to turn the key when the wheel lock is locked). Point is, google.com is the best starting place to learn anything about a car, and then from there you can find the specialty forum for it. There's often YouTube vids for every subject as well.

do i really need NoScript? I mean, since Ghostery/Disconnect blocks all trackers and SDS obliterates all cookies
