So I have just created a successful remote desktop connection for the first time to my home computer from work. Is there a way that I can listen to music without it sounding like ass?
Does it sound like ass because my upload speed or because it has trouble transferring the audio stream?
In HTML/PHP/MySQLi how do I go about creating a button that will delete a row from a table?
I have a guestbook type thing, actually something like posts in this thread. And I wanna be able to have a button for each post that deletes it. I know it would probably go something like$sql = "DELETE FROM guestbook WHERE id=3";
But how would I go about creating a button for each post that automatically has that exact post's ID?

HEOS is $50 cheaper. I need a speaker for my back patio, which one does better in humidity?

>>51880007
for every post have a form with a hidden field that submits its value on button press?
seems a rather old school approach.
Better would be you do this with javascript and post back with ajax.
>>51880007
basic version:<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<?php
if (isset($_POST['delete']))
{
echo($_POST['delete']);
// DELETE ... WHERE id = $_POST['delete']
}
?>
<form action="test.php" method="POST">
<button name="delete" value="1">Delete 1</button>
<button name="delete" value="2">Delete 2</button>
</form>
</body>
</html>
just make sure to properly validate inputs if you do anything like this. it's also kinda ugly.
a more elegant approach would be using ajax. basically onclick for every button, then make a request to delete.php?id=X or something like that.

This is what I used to create the posts:method="post" action="guestbook_add.php"in a basic form with a couple of different inputs.
then in guestbook_add.php I have$sql = "INSERT INTO guestbook_table (name, email, comment) VALUES ('$name', '$email', '$comment')";
and then I display them on another page withif($result->num_rows > 0){
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()){
echo ($row["name"]) ."<br>";
echo ($row["name"]) ."<br>";
echo ($row["comment"]) ;
}
}
So every post has a unique ID, is there a quick and dirty way to do this without having to change a bunch of shit?
>>51880444
you are vulnerable to sql injections.
better start from new and read up on some tutorials first before doing anything.
Regarding Opus encodingffmpeg -i 01\ -\ Crawlersout.flac -acodec libopus -b:a 192k -vbr on -compression_level 10 -ar 24000 test.opus
I'm using these options when encoding, but the sound quality difference still remains easily audible. What changes should I do to make it sound better? I read that Opus @ 160k should be transparent.
>>51880444
add another echo like this:echo('<button name="delete" value="' . $row['id'] . '">Delete</button>');
and wrap everything with an appropriate <form>
also remember this
>>51880162
>just make sure to properly validate inputs if you do anything like this.
>>51880460
>>51880493
alright I'll try that thanks.
this is just for a low level school project though, so I doubt sql injections are a huge problem.
I do have some basic validation though, but it's just like "name can't contain numbers, email must have a @ and a . etc."
why do IPS monitors never list their refresh rates?

So I was thinking of backing up some stuff to some laptop I don't use since I don't have an external HDD.
Isn't there some cable I can use to transfer files to them? What is it called?
Also, I was also thinking of setting up a home media server with that laptop. How does that stuff work? Like if I download or upload something to that local server, is it based on my internet speed? Or is it dependant on my router's capability?

as long as the transfer stays inside your network (say, from your PC to your network, both connected to the same router), the only thing that matters is what kind of network interfaces and cables you're using. if it's wifi, the version and connection quality matters.
most wired stuff is 1gbit these days, which is 125 megabytes per second. if any device between your PC and laptop is slower, that's gonna be the maximum speed.
your internet speed only matters if you're accessing something outside your home network or accessing your home network from outside.

I was using my ancient laptop (just browsing the web and using irc) and turned it off as usual. When I tried to boot it 20 minutes later, the hdd started making odd rhythmical sound and the laptop stopped detecting it. I realize its pretty old but isnt it weird that it died just like that out of a sudden? Everything worked just fine before I turned it off. I tried plugging the hdd to other PC and had the same problem (odd loud sounds). Does that mean the disk is kill? I have data there that I'd really like to restore.

Why is it bad to create a web server on your own PC?

Client returns wih his computer because he said his pc frozes when it starts.

Youtube without flash uses an html5 video player if I'm not mistaken. Can you play the attached webm?
>>51882162

it actually uses DASH streaming using media source extensions, which muxes audio and video on the fly.

>>51881233

>>51880697
Remove WAT is what I would use in these situations.
>>51880006
Probably your remote client is compressing the audio, could be because your upload speed isn't high enough, so it's capping the audio quality, or the client has a hard cap that makes the audio quality shit no matter what.
For audio streaming just look for straight forward solutions like "Stream music from my pc to my phone", don't bother yourself with annoying workarounds.

>32-bit UEFI
I have a UEFI laptop, it's a bit of a hassle, but I think all I needed to do was get the flashdrive with the linux installation in an appropriate manner, I used Rufus to get Linux on a flashdrive, which gives options to support UEFI.
This is long ago, so I don't really remember most of the details.
>I just need it to boot with networking, no other drivers necessary

intel really should have just produced them on the same thickness as haswell. I have no idea why they couldn't do that and have the same performance.

He doesn't know shit, just look up benchmarks for the games you'd like to play at 1080p and then select the card that gets 60 fps +
Example -
http://www.tweaktown.com/tweakipedia/83/grand-theft-auto-benchmarked-1080p-1440p-4k/index.html
I assume this was an early benchmark looking at the weird ass AMD fps, 380/x is the sweet spot for 1080p IMO
I like nvidia because in my anecdotal experience I've never had any drivers problems whereas all my amd cards have had driver issues, that being said if you buy a 960 over a 380 you are a cuck.

Can I play at 4K resolution on my 1080p screen? If so, what would I need to do to?
>>51884458
Sometimes you can have the game render at 4K and then downscale to 1080p, which can make things look nicer. Not every game will natively support this though, there are programs like gedosato that are meant to help facilitate it as well.

>Rufus is a very great tool, I always use it.
It's the only thing that's worked for me for making a bootable Windows XP installer flash drive, but I haven't used it other than that. Definitely seems to be a nice tool.
>Ah ok, most people who mention installing a distro on their tablet usually want it to make it lighter and faster
Yeah the digitizer's fucked and I've already got a different tablet so I figured why not make a server
>>51884455
Also it clearly says 2-day shipping on the invoice so it's not a case where the item itself didn't qualify for free 2-day shipping.
Should I complain and try to get some freebies out of it? Also it's an item sold by a third party but fulfilled by Amazon, so who is the one at fault here?
>>51884458
Don't be silly, anon.
The best you could do is some other techniques, like super sampling.

>>51884687
If you want to make something really big. It can be ok for movies if you have a good room set up for it, though most of the time it's easier to just get a decent TV instead. For presentations for a bunch of people a projector probably makes the most sense.

also it seems the gtx 960 when OCd is exactly the same preformance but.. yeah ill look to see what sales are going on at the local stores and whatnot
thanks for the suggestion ill keep a look out on both cards, just in case one is on sale and another isnt/ has a deal
is there any way to use molex-pcie adapters to power these GPUS? my 600w only has a 6pin pcie but like.. 6 molex connectors
If I insert a 64 GB micro SD card into a phone which supports micro SDs up to 32 GB, will I still be able to use the micro SD for up to 32 GB or do I need to buy another one?
How do I make a bootable usb in linux mint 17.3? Everything on google gives me guides on how to make a linux mint boot drive in windows.
Can someone link me to the best possible explanation of MVC vs MVVM vs MVP?
Especially one with some examples.
>>51885105
If you have a hybrid iso just dd if=iso of=/dev/sdX (w/o partition number), sdX - your flash drive, make sure it's the right one
Otherwise create the hybrid iso with isohybrid program
>>51885105
dd the iso on a pendrive or use gnome-disk tool
What's a cheap monolith white/black case?
I don't like this, I got it when I was /v/.
>>51885105
>>51885189 again
both ways will require you to clean the usb with dd if=/dev/zero of=dev/sdX ... to make the drive formatable and writable after doing it this way from my experience .
i just noticed i'm banned from posting on 4chan from my phone. it says i posted some gay shit on /v/, but i dont even use that board or have any gay shit on my phone. am i haxxed /g/?
>>51885285
Your carrier rotates IP with other users.
Turn data on/off, restart phone.
Windows 7 64bit
Gayming setup
4.2 quad-core (overclocked)
4gb, 8gb or more RAM.
And why?
>>51885338
i have 8 gigs and run out on shitty written games like plannetary annihilation so >=8
Why not Win10, /g/?
>>51885337
thanks
>>51885385
I was using 8gb, but since 2 weeks or so I bought an additional 8gb. Not really noticing anything
>>51885416
put "not" out of it and its a proper question. I have it on my laptop , cant care less if its 7 or 10 , i only had to reinstall some shit cause it didnt work. there is no real need for it, they could add better snapping and multiple workspaces to 7 as a service pack and there would be no difference to me
>>51885470
well more ram doesnt really give you a boost in performance , you lose perforance when you run out of it
Should i have such a horrible crush on anri du toit?
>>51885470
for example i had a 192 MB ram pc bac in the day that i could play HOMM4 on for 20-30 minutes before it ate it up and started lagging like shit, Its an ancient experience but i think it still applies, maybe in lesser way
>>51885514
>put "not" out of it and its a proper question.
It's also the opposite of what anon meant. He was asking for cons, your suggestion asks for pros.
>>51885338
8GB is just a safe minimum to have.
4GB can work if you have good ram conserving discipline. Like, you're a good boy who closes his webbrowser and other programs before loading up a game, but there are plenty of games nowadays that will go beyond your 4GB of ram supply on their own even if you closed everything else and not having enough ram will make games lag super hard. 8GB is just safe.
Hey guys! can anyone help me with wich router i should choose?
the one i have now is getting old and weak
i have 30 Mega internet , the zone of the wifi must be 15x15 , and yeah wired with the "internet" cable and the electric cable (sorry i dont know much about this)
>>51885604
4gb will just make map loads take longer in modern games. Most games preload the map or assets into memory and don't do it at runtime. 4gb is workable if you're conservative or playing 2-3y+ older games, or non 1080p res.
>>51885665
It all depends on what you're playing. 4GB isn't enough for, say, Second Life. Your game is going to completely freeze up on 4GB of system ram in well populated areas even if you have the best cpu and gpu that money can buy.
>>51885711
People play secondlife? O.o why? What do you even do?
>>51885737
you can do anything, be anything.
>>51885756
Why bother when you can do it in real life?
Would it be a good idea to mount my pc on the wall like in pic related?
My case is currently on my desk and i want to make use of that space. I just don't want to set it on the floor.
>>51879770
I keep on hearing the phrase "encrypt your home directory", what does this actually mean? And how do I do it? Is it possible for non-Linux systems?
>>51885782
but I can't be the little girl :((
>>51885756
Can i be yolandi?
How do I make avidemux support encoding in vp8?
>>51885784
Yeah, man, sounds great to me. I love ideas like this where you utilize wall space to free up floor space. Do you have a wall shelf already? You just have to be sure that it's a heavy duty shelf that is mounted into the studs and your wall can handle it. People wall-mount 55" tv's, so putting your tower on a wall shelf is easy.
>>51885470
you obviously won't notice anything before you use more than 8 GB
unused ram is wasted ram
if anything you'll notice that the OS can cache more stuff for you
>>51885837

What's the Manjaro meme about?
Why does it have its own kernel, what does that even mean?
Why not just use Antergos? Antergos has more DEs.
>>51885931
You can install any de on any distro you like
>>51885861
I don't have a shelf yet, I'm just getting ready to move and i'm thinking of what i want to do.
I'm not sure how i want to stabilize the case once it's on the shelf. I just want a little bit of support to keep it from being knocked off the shelf.
Also, glad you like the idea.
>>51885955
*comes with more DEs.
Seriously though, why are people manjaro hype?

What is the frequency response for the z506 subwoofer? I'm trying to find it so i can tune the low pass filter.
The website says 45hz-20khz, but i think they're applying that to all the speakers. I tried calling Logitech support, but Carlos said he didn't know either.
How does screen work, what do I use it for?
>>51886227
Jews. Look at traps and then find ways to kill yourself.
>>51886261
I meant the terminal thingy.
It does some session creating thing, but like, for what?
>>51886227
I haven't used screen in ages, haven't had a reason to use it in like ten years, but I used to use it to connect to a headless Linux server I had setup. I'd connect to that Linux machine on my network using ssh and then I'd go into my screen instance where I had IRSSI idling in my favorite irc channels and manage rTorrent among other things.
I don't know if things have changed since then or if I've always been uninformed, but screen was the only way to do multiple things at once and keep them going after you've closed out of your SSH connection.
I'd love to have somebody concur with me or show me the error of my ways and show me a better way because I intend to have a new "headless" server setup like that next year when I get my C.H.I.P.
Are mini USB and micro USB 2 different things?
>>51886376
They are. Mini USB was used on a lot of older smartphones back when Android was relatively new.
>>51879874
joos
>>51886338
me, to expound since you sound really unclear as to what screen does
you enter a screen instance and you create unlimited tabs within that screen instance for whatever terminal-based programs you want, and then you can logout of screen and those things you have going inside of screen are still operating as background processes on your computer. You can always open up your terminal again and restore that screen instance if you want to look at what's going on again.
It was really crucial to me for operating a linux machine remotely.
why does youtube load fucking slow at night? I know it isn't the connection, I'm able to download steam games at 4MB/s and stream netflix flawlessly at the same time during this period. its always just youtube around this 6pm-10pm window.
it can't be something on my end, right?
I had to reformat and now I get this when I try to launch steam. What do? I'm using the recommend nvidia drivers.

First result on Google.
>>51886570
It didn't work.

Christ, have fun. Just Google that shit until you get it working, Ubuntu doesn't "just werk" like my Debian install has.

My PSU (corsair 650w) has not arrived yet and I decided to use my old PSU for a test (seventeam 550w).
I plugged the 20pin connector into the 24pin mobo and both 6pin plugs into the video card.
I did not plug the 12v thing into the mobo, because the fucking thing did not reach it.
The system did not even boot. No display, no coolers.
This is normal, right?
>>51886722
Yes you fucking tard
You did not plug in the power cable entirely, you can't possibly expect it to power on
>>51886793
I thought I had enough power to see the fucking BIOS screen at least
>>51886816
>I did not plug the 12v thing into the mobo
>I thought I had enough power to see the fucking BIOS screen at least
If you don't give power to the processor you aren't going to get far.

Well, isn't this the stupid question thread?
so I'm playing youtube videos on my raspberry pi remotely using my laptop
So far, I've been doingomxplayer -o local `youtube-dl -g (url)`

Does anyone know how to get omxplayer and/or youtube-dl to play youtube playlists? Or is there an alternative method to do so?

Does Debian come with a de or do I have to add one myself?

Steal her internet search history and find whatever she was looking up. The goal is to find a give a gift that is not very expensive ~$25, but they couldn't justify the price.
>>51886936
The answer to both is yes. Pick a version of debian with a DE, or get the minimalist version and install one manually through apt-get. Your choice.
>>51886936
wow
jk, it depends on what install medium you use.
If you use the graphical live boot, it comes with Gnome.
if you use the netinstall, you need to install your own.
>>51886897
It's not too stupid of a question. You would have been able to have gotten something with the mobo plugged in, but the graphics card not plugged in. Good luck with your build, anon

I just got an SSD. How exactly do I put Windows on there and continue using everything normal with just Windows running off the SSD?
From what i've seen everyone says to use software to clone to the SSD but my HDD is 1tb and SSD is only 120gb so it obviously wont clone if it doesn't have the capacity. Not sure what to do. I'm not really tech smart at all, this is a stupid questions thread anyway.

I tried overclocking a Haswell CPU earlier with override volltage. After Windows loaded, I noticed that the CPU could reduce speed to idle clocks, but the voltage always stayed the same. Is this normal for override voltage settings, or are there any power-saving features I may have missed in the BIOS that would enable idle voltage?
Also, would it be better to use adaptive voltage instead? DESU, I'm reluctant to use it after reading that certain applications will raise the voltage when the BIOS is configured with adaptive voltage settings.

Off course I don't trust it.

Has anyone here who uses Firefox without Flash noticed that Youtube is no longer serving h.264 HTML5 video? Instead it's serving VP8 video with only 360p and 720p.

>>51887441
It's just you. I'm using Firefox without Flash as well and just tested a youtube video and I had all the quality settings. Watching a 1080p video right now.

I think I discovered the problem. YT must've switched over to "MSE & h.264" (MSE means media source extensions) as their default h.264 video delivery mechanism very recently; something that Firefox 42 doesn't support by default on Linux and even manually enabling it via about:config causes the video player to throw errors and not play the video. Upgrading to Firefox 43 solved the issue for me as it appears that MSE/h.264 is ready for prime time. Now I see all the quality options again indicating that h.264 via MSE is being used on YT. All is well again.

it's the third party companies fault but if they don't make it right then the responsibility falls to amazon. contact the seller first, do it by email and keep what you send and what you get from them, so that if you need to you can go to amazon and say look, I gave them a chance to make it right and they didn't so either you gotta make them make it right or make it right yourself.
