Does an ATX-SATA cable exist, or do I need to get an ATX-Molex, then connect a Molex-SATA to that?
I'd rather avoid cable clutter, but it seems a one-cable solution doesn't exist.

can someone please try Jdownloader 2?
It is supposed to work with pinterest but it doesn't find any files when I try it, and I think it might be my pc blocking the connection.
I want to download for example:

I've been profesionally a Sharepoint developer in the past 9 months, and I've learned alot about the platform and what-not. Altough I feel like I don't know enough, does anyone work with Sharepoint and can recommend some resources?
It's a great platform for CMS and everything but some corners of it are literarlly shit, for example most of their oob design is with tables. I just want to get good at it.
Is there any way to stream audio and video files via the command line?
I've used ftpfs and sshfs in the past and the performance isn't really consistent for me. The fusemount also crashes on me often. I don't want to use kodi or similar I would prefer a lightweight solution.

how do you boot straight to os/login screen in ubuntu?
keep getting a menu (grub?) menu come up when switching on
>>52650987
It's the bootloader choosing which OS you want to use located on it's specific mount (f.e. /dev/sdaX).
You need it though. What you can do is shorten it's apparition at boottime to a minimum. Or you can use a splashscreen as a cosmetic solution. Up to you.

I applied clipper oil to a GPU fan yesterday, and now it's actually noisier/grindier than it was before. Not sure what I did wrong, but in hindsight, I don't think the fan needed lubricant anyway. It was just running at an unecessarily high speed due to poorly applied thermal paste. Is there anything I can do to fix it now?

Is hybrid sleep same as PC shutdown? I talk in terms of stress
Is it bad if I don't shutdown my PC, and let it every night go to hybrid sleep itself? Will it not stress PSU or something? Thanks for answers in advance
Been getting LITERALLY constant ping (as in, at a constant interval). It gets better sometimes, but this happens too often and it's fucking over my games.
Things I've ruled out as possible causes:
- Router, the ISP, local bnet in general (line works flawlessly on other computers)
- The servers themselves (again, the other computer is pinging to the same server)
- Wireless card issues (tested it with an external wireless card, works just as bad)
So the last thing I'm thinking is I might have installed something fucky, or my hardware is just dying in general (not just the WLAN card). Problem is, I don't remember what I installed, and my last backup was 6 months ago.
Should I do shit like go into safe mode and stuff to confirm if it's actually a hardware issue? Got any other analytical solutions I can take?
I live in Eastern Europe, where torrenting is very loosely handled, and you can torrent any amount of copyrighted data without any consequences. However, I am currently staying in France for 2 weeks, and was wondering if I could get into trouble/any warnings for downloading shit like h-games and other obscure stuff. I don't really want to risk a fine or something (if those are even given for torrenting), since I'm staying at my relatives and am using their internet. Any tips/advice?
>>52651200
hybrid sleep decreases your hdd/ssd life time
for other parts it doesn't really matter if they run or not as long as they stay low temperature and aren't being overvolted
>>52651301
it's your wlan card
you need a modified driver that allows you to disable background scan

I can't figure out why are they 50$ difference between they two. I check other sites and do the same shit, why?
>>52651358
I tried it with one of those USB wireless dongles. Had to install a different driver and shit. It still gave me the shit pings.
You think maybe I should try reinstalling my primary wlan card driver?
I guess I should also preface that this problem only popped up about 2 weeks ago. Was fine previously.

Btw, I ran the the laptop on safe mode + networking. Getting CLEAN ass pings.
Just a list of things I've (probably) done over the past 2 weeks are:
- Updated windows (might consider looking into uninstalling certain updates)
- Updated some graphic drivers
- Installed some chinese Baidu thing to download stuff, but already removed most of them

I suggest you splurge on a 2nd hand 3ds + gateway flash cart.
Basically it's 3ds + free games. A SHITLOAD of good rpgs are on the 3ds, and you can also install homebrew to run book readers and shit.
Not that you would want to, since you will be playing etrian odyssey and shin megami tensei all day.
Sometimes when I'm torrenting, regardless of the speed I'm torrenting at, my network almost shuts down except for the torrent, any non-torrent connections are unuseable, browser pages don't resolve. But then sometimes it's fine. Like right now I'm downloading Solidworks at 1Mb/s, the speed my network connection tops out at, and everything's fine, I can browse as if no torrent were running at all.
What's up with that?
>>52652423
might be DNS, try using another DNS.
might also be cheap router

Apparently, going into safe mode + networking, and then restarting again, fixed it.
So I guess that should be a lesson for anyone with this "constant interval ping" problem. Go into safe mode + networking, and restart.

I'm trying to install Windows 10 (le botnet meme, i know XDDD).
In BIOS there are two entries of my USB drive with win10 on it: the regular one and UEFI one. Only the UEFI one is able to boot, the regular one just hangs immediately with a black screen. I need to use the regular one, though.
What do? Did I fuck up writing the image to the drive or something?

>>52652947
>I need to use the regular one, though.
why?

server throttling, or your HDD too slow.
>>52653282
Because UEFI only installs on GPT drives. I have an MBR drive, which I can't be bothered to convert to GPT.

Hey /g/, basically i downloaded some dumb app to try to convert mp4 to webm, tried to convert one video, and know all my videos are unwatchable. I have since deleted the app.
Youtube still works, just not videos saved to the phone, which is an android btw.

So they do break my privacy so there botnet

What player are you using to play them?
If you use a third party player, have you reinstalled it to have it associate with file types?
If you're using teh stock player, try mx player
>>52653551
do you fucking expect steam to forget your fucking game list and your purchasing behavior? of course they track it.
Does that make them botnet? no.
>>52653572
The stock one. What worries me is all all my videos got fucked, not just the one I tried to convert.
>tfw all i wanted was for /fit/ to check my deadlift form

>P(“X”) = 0.8
>P(“Y”) = 0.1

Why should I code them with the following binaries (X as 0; why shouldn't I code it as 00 instead and keep them all double digits?)
>"X" = "0"
>"Y" = "10"

Yes. You want to Tx the fewest bits possible, so you code the symbol with the highest probability with the lowest number of bits. If you look up a walkthrough of a Huffman coding tree it should become pretty apparent.

lots of routers these days support just plugging in an external to the router and it's available over the network

No responsible site would give you the hash for someone's account, even if you appear to own it: the hash is not normally available even to support staff.
When a website doesn't keep those hashes secure, they "leak" out and one of those leaks is your most likely source of hashes you haven't yourself created.
Hash leaks are regularly pastedbinned on the /z/ board for 4chan gold members

I considered this option but
1. My external enclosure needs 2 USB ports and my router only has 1.
2. I don't like the idea of my ISP looking at the sit I store there.
why do large technology companies use such weak passwords? Most routers come with a default password of 12345678, or worse yet, no password at all. Wtf is this?
>>52656200
your isp wouldn't be able to look through it any more than it's capable of looking through anything on the network. I've never heard of an external that takes two usb ports, what you got?
>>52656202
no point in setting complicated secure passwords for routers you're selling since the casuals will complain about t and the security conscious will be changing it anyways

Get a WD Black and you should get a cheaper HSF since you are using a locked I5, but you can keep it if you want.
i have a debian server connected to router but router does not see it. how do i fix this? looks like debian is not requesting ip from dhcp

Cool beans, thanks for the advice dude
is gaming ram better than my normal ddr3 or is it just my normal ddr3 with a fedora on?
>>52656945
RAM is RAM.
if you want ram advertised as 1333MHz will run at 1866MHz meanwhile your motherboard supports it.
You are just paying for the fancy colors and probably a heatsink that is somewhat useless.
TLDR: Its the same shit from all popular brands.
Can you use 1 set of dual ram, with 1 single ram in the same PC?

don't use a fuck old distro that probably doesn't have your laptop keys supported
>>52657894
your returns "\r" are getting eaten
Windows uses '\r\n' because it's absolutely fucking retarded while the rest of the world uses '\n'
You can do a find and replace in notepad++, "\n" for "\r\n"

A relatively cheap android tablet with an ips screen, any of them would suit your needs.
>>52657939
Well how do I know which distro supports my laptop keys?
>>52657961
newer laptop = more bleeding edge
I would recommend fedora
You can also trick xubuntu into enabling the fn keys but it might lead to other side effects:
In /etc/default/grub add "acpi_osi=" to the kernel command line:GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi="
Then run a sudo update-grub.

>>52658852
honestly seems pretty nice although I personally would wait for the next generation of GPUs so that there's a pricedrop.
not a huge fan of the 212 evo personally if you could flip it out for a NG-u12S or an NH-U14S then you'd be set.
I'm not experienced with buying laptops. I just want a ~$200 laptop and while I haven't looked very far, this appeals to me:

Thanks senpai

I have seen that motherboard for $20 cheaper.
The 212 evo is good replacement for the stock cooler but not great for overclocking.

Get a GA-Z97X-UD3H if you can instead that motherboard.
Is there a way to have a RAID 0 array mirroring (RAID 1) another RAID 0 array?
>>52659325
Replying to my own question:
It is called "Nested RAID" or "Hybrid RAID".
Specifically, what I was asking about was a hybrid RAID array called "RAID 01".
Why is my laptop slow? It has decent specs (for my minimal usage but still tends to be slow)
- Intel i7
- 16gb ddr3 (or 5) ram
- 2gb video card amd radeon
- 1tb hdd
Btw, I have never been able to activate my radeon graphics, it always runs on intel, how fix? (i have a toshiba)
Right now I have
>i3 370M @2.4GHz
>4GB DDR3 @1600MHz
>600GB 5400rpm HDD
Would replacing the HDD with a SSD be the best upgrade, or should I just look into getting a new computer with a faster CPU?
My computer starts crying if I have more than 8 browser tabs open while listening to music.
>>52659414
You can reuse the RAM. Overall, you should think about replacing just about everything. An i5 or i7 first gen is barely cutting it, first gen i3 just no. You're officially obsolete.
>>52659411
Maybe a low power HDD?
phone works but barely. lot of bootlooping . get a nexus 6p or try to wait it out until march for the galaxy s7? or is there a better option out now or coming soon
>>52659242
>Will I see improved fps in games?
No
My friend who upgrade from a 6300 to an 8350 saw the same performance, only lower temps
>>52659414
You won't gain anything from an ssd in terms of performance other than write speed. New motherboard and a nice i5 will do you well if you just need something to browse the internet and listen to music.
Is it possible to set up RAID 0+1 on Windows Server 2012?
>>52659411
Look into throwing an ssd in it if possible.
Are small (20-24") hdtvs tvs good as a computer monitor? The answers I get from google are basically "A 40" 720p TV will look shitty from up close!"
Like, will the image be inherently shitty even through hdmi? I just want a 2nd screen for my meager laptop setup.
>>52659500
Yes. I'm doing it on 8.1 currently, but I'll explain it to you. Should be the same way.
Lets say you have four 1TB HDDs.
Under storage spaces in Windows you create a raid 1 span on drive 1 and 2, and another raid 1 span on drive 2 and 3.
Under diskmgmt.msc you will see two virtual drives. (The two raid 1 spans)
You right click, link them together as stripped (raid 0)
Under my computer you will see one drive. Ta da!
If a drive fails the raid 0 is unaffected, under storage spaces you will see a failed raid 1 span. You replace the drive and rebuild the raid 1.
Also note it's called raid 10 (1+0)
Anyone know if it's possible to create a bunch of shapes (rectangles) based on a size table in excel?
For ex:
Name| Length | Width
Part1 50 ft. 50 ft.
Part2 25 ft. 33 ft.
etc.
I then want these to open up as rectangles in Visio so they can be placed in a floorplan I already have created.
I've tried some VBA shit but there's literally zero resources online for Visio's VBA and it's quite different than excels.
>>52659500
>>52659563
>drive 1 and 2, and another raid 1 span on drive 2 and 3.
One fucking job and I screwed up.
Raid 1 on drives one and two
Raid 1 on drives three and four

>>52659607
Haswells are completely fine. Really consider building a PC before you spring for a laptop. There are a ton of builds on pcpartspicker in all price ranges that wold suit you very well. A pc always has room to grow.
