So this poo2loo thing has been around since April 2014 why has it only recently attained meme status? /g/ has been strongly against Indians in the tech field for as long as I can remember. And the Indian CEOs working for the megacorps have held their positions for as long or longer than this unicef initiative
Also why do Indians shit in public if they have indoor plumbing? This campaign seems to suggest that they have a choice in the matter and *choose* to shit everywhere, which I have a hard time believing.
Actually scratch that second paragraph I just want to know why this is a meme now, and not earlier.

How?
Closing the window doesn't seem to stop it, and there's no buttons to control it.
Also, what harm could rebooting possibly do? I'm not installing anything, just checking for updates.
>>52013822
>just checking for updates.
sometimes when it says checking for updates it's actually downloading them. rebooting could cause a file to become corrupt, resulting in a corrupt update being installed during the reboot. good luck after that, it happened to me before.
i'd wait for as long as you can, but not more than a day. after that i would risk a reboot. you can't be too careful with windows updates.
usually there should be a cancel button, though. sorry mate

Use a different font, a sans-serif one. Instead of "Have taken classes" use "Trained to use / in the use of". Put your volunteer work into extra-curricular unless it's relevant to the job you're applying for. Use the Experience section for things like, "Assembled personal computer" or "Configured home network for DHCP". It sounds like stupid bullshit easy things but that's what they will be looking for so that they know you can at least do basic things.
This is kind of a nitpick but maybe instead of "increasing my own skills" you could use "grow as a professional". It just sounds better.

I've been transfering a lot of data over lan through my router, desktop - ethernet, tablet - wifi but noticed some bottlenecking.
Transfering a file from my desktop to the tablet I get 1.6MB/s, I've noticed if I start downloading something on my phone then the transfer from the desktop to the tablet drops to 500kb/s, is this just because it's a shit router provided by my ISP?

Ubuntu is good. Nice forum support already has answers for any question you want to ask. But after a while unity begins to suck. It is irritating when you have many windows.

It's kind of hard to know what to look for in a router because not many chips get benchmarks. As a general rule though, the more you spend the better it will be, with exceptions of course.
My recommendation since I'm a miserly bastard is to buy an older router off of ebay. I bought a Linksys E3200, put DD-WRT on it, and it easily handles my desktop, laptop, and phone.
>>52014486

sigh. im trying to install my video card drivers on my newly built pc thats running ubuntu. the card is sapphire radeon r7 270 4g. i manually searched for the driver on the ati website and download. the ubuntu software center said that shit was a bad package but i installed anyways. within a few min of installing ubuntu showed an internal error but i forgot what it was. being new to linux i had a hard time finding the drivers to set my shit up i decided i should reboot. ubuntu doesnt fucking open. there's only an underscore up at the top left. do i really need to reinstall/format to fix this?

Who thought this was ever a good idea? I'm not in HR but if I ever saw a pretentious faggoty sentence like this on a resume I'd throw it immediately into the trash
I have installed Ublock Origin and whenever i open a youtube video on youtube's site it first becomes static-y gray and says "a error has occurred", then it automatically immediately reload the page (but not always) and the video works.
Instead when i open a embedded youtube link on 4chan it just show the static and "a error has occured" and nothing else.
What configuration options do i have to mess with to remove those annoyances?

Nigga you fucked up. Use the "Additional Drivers" window next time to enable proprietary drivers, but be aware the AMD proprietary drivers are absolute trash. Just stick with the default drivers Ubuntu installed, it will be the X.Org one in the Additional Drivers window.

I went to a resume writing course (it was free through work and I got the day off for it, don't judge me) and they told me to put an objective there too. Also a "Skills" section that they recommended me put nine useless words like "Intuitive" in to. Don't blame him, blame the shitty people who make these courses.
>>52015014
This isn't a problem with ublock, it's a problem with your HTML 5 or flash player. Youtube attempts to load one or the other, fails, then reloads the page under the other player and it works. This is also why embedded videos don't work because they won't contain the reload script. Youtube HTML 5 needs to call a shit ton of other things for the player to load, an addon like Request Policy may be blocking one of them.

I only have ublock origins and Ubuntu Modifications (it's there by default it seems).
How can i see which player is the culprit and how can i "switch" priorities so that the working one is used first?
>>52015120
I assume you don't have Flash installed since you're on Ubuntu, so it's probably loading Flash first then going to HTML 5. Download Youtube Center https://github.com/YePpHa/YouTubeCenter/wiki/Developer-Version and then set the Default Player (under the Player tab) to HTML 5 in the little gear at the top right of the Youtube page.

Does Shockwave Flash counts as "flash" or just Adobe Flash?
And if i remove Shockwave would FF go "whelp! Looks like i don't have flash, better use HTML5"?
>>52015237
your saving me some work, thank you.
>>52015244
It's all the same, but the Flash for Linux is old and doesn't receive development any more, just security patches. That's why I assumed you didn't have it installed, and that's probably why it doesn't work with modern Youtube.
I can't say I know if removing it will make Youtube load the HTML 5 player by default, sorry.
>>52015297
Ok, i went to the github page and tried to install from file (since i couldn't otherwise find it in the add-on manager search function), but it says that it can't install it because "it is not verified".

2) What dark, ancient god from beyond the veil does one have to sacrifice his/her soul to in order to find the solution by themselves (not by googling or asking) without going insane?

it uses upto 3gb ram when scanning for updates as it needs to simultaneously cross reference the database and match the packages for your architecture (32/64), hardware and other misc updates.

Also, install whatever VM software drivers so you get aero acceleration, leveraging the desktop rendering to the gpu helps a lot.
I've had this laptop since 2013. Since I installed windows 10 the power doesn't shut off completely when I shut down and it doesn't go into sleep. The power and wifi lights stay on. Would updating my bios possibly help?

>>52016637
I'm thinking in terms of business. The actual trouble to build it isn't much, but when you throw guarantees and testing on top of it with shipping and handling as well as paying for the man hours. I'd say its fine charging anywhere from $150-$200 on that alone and that's not including warranty.
I mean its a bit silly in the economic sense that you could build it yourself, but from their standpoint its perfectly acceptable.

I did the mistake of upgrading my drivers (352.86) when i didn't needed, just because they were "new". From there, i only had problems.

>358.50 improved "shadowplay" a little bit but introduced a bug where every 3 or so minutes, the mouse sensibility got doubled (i have a CM xornet)

>359.06 & 361.41 apparently fixed all my problems but now i get input lag when i record with "shadowplay"
Then i downgraded to 352.86, but as soon as i executed "Nvidia GF Experience" i got a BSOD with the error "Driver IRQL not less or equal" and then windows stooped booting. So i installed "Display Driver Uninstaller" and removed everything in safe mode. Then i installed the last driver that worked somewhat fine for me (353.30) and i got a BSOD with the same error as soon i started windows.
I lost faith in the official forums after they told me that i needed to use a SSD to get 60 fps "shadowplay" recordings, even after i told them that on older drivers it worked fine on my WD HD.
Formating is my last option but i'm lazy and i want to learn to solve this problem.
tl;dr
>Anon wants to downgrade Nvidia drivers but Xe can't.
At work we use win7 (ie8) and often like 2-3 times a day it will just get really slow, the solution that seems to help is to do disk clean up.
Now is there a way to make a .bat file that would do this task when its run?
Why is Deluge down, and where can I download a legitimate version of it?
How do I forward only one website to a certain DNS?
Like, I want only Netflix to go through a certain public DNS, not all traffic.
Okay, so I fell for the Deluge meem and downloaded it. Seems to work fine but I have two issues:
1. Can't change language. I found a fix to start it from a batch file but this doesn't really change the language permanently. What do?
2. I added several trackers for a torrent but for some reason Deluge is only using the top one. How do I fix this?

No idea how to set which DNS-server will be used on specific websites. One solution I can think of would be to add all DNS-servers you will use to the IPv4 settings of your network adapter and then download a portable version of whatever browser you use. Use a firewall to block connections to the DNS you don't want to use for the application. Then use normal or portable web browser depending on which DNS you want to use. Also out of curiosity, could you explain why you would want to do this?

Because I want to access Netflix through Chromecast. Now I thought of adding the custom DNS to my phone instead and that works, until I want to stream it.
It's Google that's being a bitch about it. I have to forward their DNS through my router and then to another custom DNS so it 'thinks' I'm in the US.
Now I don't like it if every website I go through goes through a free DNS because I don't trust it. That's why I only want to forward Netflix to it.
it is possible by the way, as you can see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2435579&page=32

You just answered yourself, so why ask in the first place?
A lot of my old, low res videos files tend to have this sound desync in them (I usually have to make the sound +150ms delay to sync it) and i can't figure this out. Thing is, it only happens on my computer, no matter what player, no matter what renderer i'm using. If i'm playing the same files on my phone for example, the sound is synced fine.
It seems to happens only with low res files (480p and lower), doesn't matter the format either, it could be AVI or MKV or OGM.
what could be the problem and how can i fix it?

Non-/g/ person here.
My question: how does the (filesystem of) permanent storage on phones such as pic related write data with respect to hard, physical location? Do they overwrite randomly, or do they always write at the physically first available free index?
Context: I did a recording, accidentally turned off the phone, and like the retard unbelievable that I am, I then started another one. Thus, I'd like to know if the next recording ate the beginning of the first one, or did it (hopefully) begin writing at some completely other index, which successful recovery seems to depend on.
Clarification: I don't know the exact filesystem/storage mechanism of that phone, but I trust that it is roughly consistent for this class/tier of phones.
Please help. Thank you.

Did you even read the info in the link you provided?
Your tv is capable of 1080/60p, just select game mode in tv settings, thats usually for best latency and zero postprocessing
>>52018997
Not "drop" frames, just not update fast enough to show them. Then it will interpolate your screen up to 200hz.
The input lag will be real.
Check if it supports 60hz with bullshit disabled, if not you're out of luck.

>>52019218
If the recording was kept in ram or in some temp system file then its lost,
if the phone saved data to internal memory/sd card in *real* time then it should have created the file in something like /Videos and it should contain at least part of the recording.
>>52019219
>1080/60p
Note that it says nothing of the screen refresh rate which is 50 hz. 60 frames per second while the screen itself refreshes 50 times per second? I doubt.

>>52019302
>If the recording was kept in ram or in some temp system file then its lost
There must be only some sort of a buffer and files being written permanently as they are recorded, because I've made recordings that are a couple of hours long with that phone, which almost certainly exceeds its volatile memory, because it is a pretty old model.
>it should have created the file in something like /Videos and it should contain at least part of the recording.
It didn't, but again, I'm pretty sure it's written some of it, which is bound to be extractable from a drive image. The question is whether the subsequent recordings overwrote it or not. I see that phones use 'flash memory'. How do pendrives work? Do they distribute write operations randomly, physical location-speaking? That's what I'm counting on re. recovery.

I guess what helps is to delete temporary internet files so the simplest thing to do would be to go to Internet Options -> Browsing history -> Settings and set the disk space used to 0 MB. If you can't do this because you're not allowed to change the options, a batch file containing this should do it:del %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\* /s /q
Also if possible, talk to your IT admin about either upgrading to Internet Explorer 11 or if you can be allowed to use Firefox or Chrome instead.

I just updated Fedora and it killed itself and I can't really be assed to fix it since I hated the fucking thing anyway. I'm fairly competent with linux, and I'm looking to switch to a unix like operating system that just werks, is customizable, and doesn't fucking break / need to be frequently updated (this is not necessarily required)
I assume Arch would be a shitty option, although customizable, gentoo seems like a pain, which really leaves slackware and a variation of BSD. I realize that linux software can run in a compatability layer in BSD, but I don't really feel inclined to deal with that.
Essentially what I'm asking is how /g/ feels about slackware as a stable, customizable desktop distribution.

From what I can google about your system, your PSU is extremely low power at 240W. Your current GPU is actually also pretty weak: It has a lot of VRAM, but its actual GPU processing power is extremely low. This is a $40 card.
The Nvidia GTX 750ti is a very low power draw card, but even its rating is 300 watts minimum.
So if you want a better graphics card, you're going to HAVE to get a better power supply. A decent one will run you ~$80-100, so keep that in mind for your budget.
Also, look up what your processor is and tell us, so we can give you a better recommendation on what card to get. You can do this without any extra programs by going
Start --> Computer --> System Properties (Near the top of the window)
So with that out of the way, what is your end-goal for gaming? Are you wanting to run Witcher 3 and GTAV at max settings, or do you just want a machine that will play Skyrim and Dota better?

Just installed Mint 17.3 and noticed that my screen is randomly flashing, didn't have this issue on 17.2 and have no problems on Windows neither.
I googled it and found some outdated solutions, ran some xrandr command which I believe was responsible for refresh rate, but didn't help.
I also noticed that windows have tinting effect now when they have a popup preventing me from closing them. It is usually then when the flashing happens although can't be certain if it's somehow related to it since it doesn't happen at all times.
Any idea what could be causing it and how to fix this? Should I just go back to 17.2?

>>52013738
>age: 26
>>52020221
>What's the best cryptocurrency to try mining?
in general, you look for whatever is the newest thing that hasn't yet launched, gauge whether you think it has enough behind it to make it on an exchange, and then sell whatever you get mining in the first 24 hours
if something is more than 24 hours post-launch, it's not going to be worth the electricity cost to try mining
though most of the junk coins you mine are going to be worthless and not hit an exchange either
making money from cryptocurrency is more about playing the market than it is about mining

The good news is that your CPU actually has a better passmark score than my current CPU, and I'm running Skyrim on max 60fps and most new games medium-low 40-50 fps, so you're actually good there.
An AMD R9 280 or an Nvidia GTX 960 would be best to pair up with that CPU, but they might not fit in your current case. Since your PC comes in a number of form factors, I would just open it up and measure from the back to the nearest obstruction towards the front.
The R9 280 requires 275mm (11 inches) of clearance and the 960 requires 241mm (9.5 inches)
And while you're in there, do you actually have a GPU plugged in? I suspect it might just be the onboard, which performs way worse than any standalone card.
>>52020598
then you can mock your friends since visual studio as far as I know is not cross platform

Linux isn't exactly good for gaming, personally I recommend dual booting. When it comes to other software, most of the stuff seems to have better performance on Linux, but there are instances when shit barely runs on it as opposed to Windows.

If your CPU cooler has PWM fans grab a PWM splitter and plug it into the 4-pin (PWM) CPU fan header. Then plug both fans into the splitter. You'll have pulse-width modulation on both fans. If your cooler only has one fan then just use the second CPU fan header for normal case fans.

Classes are basically type definitions. Blueprints for self-defined objects. They are (at least in Java) allocated in the heap by default (and you cannot change that behavior, at least in Java).
If you want to define a type "human", you do so by defining a class human. Any proper class definition should contain a constructor which is a function being called whenever you use the "new" operator.
The statementHuman h = new Human("myname", "mybirthday");
Defines a variable h of type Human and assigns the newly produced Human-object with the given parameters. You could call this constructor by defining the following class:class Human {
String name;
String birthday;
public Human(String name, String birthday) {
// left side is object variable, right side is
// the given parameter. "this" keyword
// is a reference to the current object
// being called/instantiated
this.name = name;
this.birthday = birthday;
}
}
And you could access your new object by typingString s = h.name;
System.out.println(s);
Hope that helps

how do I fix this
I keep finding conflicting information on the Model, View, View Model pattern.
So let me get this straight:
The model is merely an interface that notifies when it has been altered.
The view model is responsible for updating instances of the model.
So if I had a model object called FacebookName and pulled a name from Facebook, I would pull that name from Facebook and intitialise the model object in the ViewModel?
