DVDISASTER: what is this thing about images, on the manual? I want to read DVDs, why do I need to configure such a thing as image size?
For some reason I get 100% package loss every time I try to ping twitch.tv. Because of that whenever I use livestreamer+mpv to stream twitch streams mpv takes fucking minutes to start. Anyone know what might be going on?
It's not my internet connection and I can browse twitch.tv just fine with my internet browser. If I got 100% package loss shouldn't I not be able to even connect with it with the browser as well?
>>53599755
You cant ping twitch.tv.
Your ISP may be tunneling your network so you get lots of latency.
Use this site and paste the link in VLC or MPC.

I know jack shit about networking so I don't know exactly what you meant. But are things like these temporary? Because I used to be able to stream fine with mpv and livestreamer before.
I have here an original "Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Dektop Edition" CD. Should I keep it, or throw it away?
does that thing worth $100 (with the eMMC module)?
A new Odroid C2 or Rasp Pi with accessories will cost me half the price. And probably i will use it for torrentbox, fileserver, media player and maybe a small web server

Keep it. I can't see why you'd need to throw it away. And selling it doesn't sound worth it.
How much would cpu temps be affected by twisting the CPU cooler?
Simply how it was originally installed, the CPU cooler was crooked, and without even thinking about it, I tried twisting it into position without really thinking about the thermal paste. I didn't move it much, but all the same, I'm paranoid about the temps and I don't have much of a base reading to work with.

The program is legit, the download part of the website is ridden of ads and shady ads.
Dont visit it without a adblocker like ublock origin.

My case is fine. I think it's the latter actually causing it.

I had this issue for a day. I think it's related to your isp and it will work again in a day or two.
At University studying Computer Science. Starting to get the feeling I've fallen for the Computer Science meme, and the whole University meme as a whole.
If I devoted three years of my time to learning a skill myself I feel I would learn more about problem solving, self learning, adapting, working efficiently, holding responsibility - traits many startups are looking for.
Where as if I continue to go to University I get the piece of paper (degree) that all big businesses are looking for but don't have any experience to actually get me decent placement anywhere.
>Have I fallen for the meme?
>Am I better off just doing my own thing?
>Is starting to learn from scratch and going into freelance work a real thing?

The best program for background listening to youtube is Netmbuddy.
>>53600430
You could turn it into a router with something like pfsense or openwrt
>>53600885
here's the results of each test, I'm not sure what they mean
>>53600747
Look out for their impedance, if it's low you can listen to stuff without an amplifier, if it's high you need one.
>>53601039
What are the things he could have seen?

Well its the router that the company provided, he has access to the router page, does that count?

Your HDD is "stable", from the SMART data you posted in the pastebin and the tests i see nothing that could mean a fatal failure but your read speeds shouldn't drop.

Nothing important then, dont worry.
Why so worried that your brother knows about your porn?
>>53601218

>>53601199
That's actually pretty high, you might need an amp. Your stereo amp probably has an output for headphones already.
>>53601227
>>53601130
Unless he has access to your computer.
>>53601234
Not him but he is talking about youtube-dl.
>>53601234
Install youtube-dl and type these into a terminal. It's not hard.
>>53601227
Because its not a brother, its half sister. And shes like 28.
It would be very very disturbing and embarassing if she could see the amount of porn and types of porn I see.
The only thing I am concerned here is if there is a way she could or could have seen the sites I frequented.
>>53601251
Your router probably keeps logs, go into the configuration and delete them. Look through it.
>>53601075
What meme are you talking about?
Your classes shouldn't be more than 6 hours a day - work on all the projects you want. University is the time to find out what you really want to do and three years is an incredibly short amount of time. Are you sure you want to get straight to the workforce after your degree? If you find programming and math easy, maybe you'd rather go into research (talk to your professors who run/work in a lab).
Take it easy and enjoy the uni life. Your marks will let you know if your cut out for CS or not.
>>53601251
She would need a router with custom firmware (dd-wrt, tomato, etc.) and a good amount of knowledge.
Normal routers keep logs but not about websites you visit.
If she has access to your computer she could find out easy, but if she doesn't then dont worry.

I'm mostly noticing the slowdown when I open my pictures folder, but I'm thinking it may just be the thumbnail cache rebuilding or something since I'm booting into linux now on a regular basis as well.

The Uni meme (in my opinion) is idea that you MUST have a Uni degree before I can get any sort of decent job. Every day I spend at Uni is money I have to pay back as well. If all I'm doing is spending that money to sit in class and wonder why I'm even doing this and being unhappy, stressed in the process then it's a pretty shit investment in my opinion.
I'm pretty much spending money to make myself unhappy which is the opposite of how things go. I have literally no idea what interests me and just sort of chose CS because I liked working with computers and that's like 70% of what I've done through my life.
Just in general I feel like I haven't experienced enough in life to justify spending a shit load of money and three+ years of my time focusing on that one thing. I want to work a shitty job, try living by myself, finally live my life for myself; not continue living the Uni meme to please others and live in the hope that it will improve my whole life.
Is there a way to upload webms on a phone?
When I go to the file picker it only shows image files so webms aren't included.
>>53601420
Then it shouldn't take it time to load.
That you are dualbooting into linux shouldn't affect your thumbnail cache.
Anyway clicking noises are always a bad thing when it comes to HDDs, unless its a WD Red.

How do I force full screen aspect ratio on a PC with two monitors?
When I try to run old games in full screen in a 4:3 resolution, they're still still stretched to 16:9 on my primary monitor
I have two monitors, one standard 1920x1080 (primary monitor) and one vertical 1080x1920
Both monitors are set to aspect ratio scaling in Nvidia Control Panel
The "override game settings" option makes no difference

Im wondering if there is a way to set an android phone to charge only when battery reaches X%

>>53601556
You might be able to write something in greasemonkey if the information is there but hidden and not available in the settings.
>>53601991
Tasker might be able to do it
I've seen people here say that leaving your computer on can hurt it. Is this true? Because I never shut off my desktop.
>>53601907
you might need to check your monitor's settings. sometimes they default to 16:9 instead of auto
>>53602080
Depends.
90% of the time there is nothing wrong with it unless its a low end computer with low quality parts.
>>53601907
By default Nvidia has the monitor do the scaling. Override that and you should be fine.

Only hurts your electricity bill, apart from that desktops are designed to run 24/7, but there is a certain amount of hours most of your parts will run before failing, whether or not that's going to be the first reason any of your components fail. I shut mine off at night and have my phone send it WOL packets in the morning before I wake up.

Turn up the fans or blow the dust out if you haven't in the last 12 months.

Ideally you should dust out your laptop every 6 months, if not more often. Canned air is fine, a compressor works to.

Is there any sort of controller that could take multiple usb 2.0 ports and combine them into one usb 3.0 port?
I have a lot of spare usb 2.0 ports on the back IO and spare pins on the mobo

So I can't understand. How is real mounting in Windows? This system does not uses this term anywhere.

Sorry. I mean It's not really a 1440p card and I'm trying to "future proof "
What is the easiest way to make a NAS available to every machine in the LAN network?
As in, allow all of them to access it to download and upload files.
Preferably without forcing them to enter a user and password every time.
how do i start a program on my pi (via ssh) that runs in the background until i restart, not until i exit the session?
>>53603767
>I mean It's not really a 1440p card
I don't know who fed you that crap. I've been running at 1440p on a 6990 (often without crossfire, so effectively a 6970) since 2011. Your card is much higher end, and in the worst circumstances (some shit optimized or nvidia gimped game on ultra) you can set the game's output resolution to 1080p anyway.
You have no good reason other than cost to buy a 1080p monitor. Especially if you're trying to "future proof", you will regret getting anything below 1440p (consider 1600p as well).

>>53603598
More or less. How far away from the screen are you? For a 23" or lower screen 1080p is fine but if you are not far away you will notice it on bigger screens.
>>53603805
there's a few ways, but what you probably want is tmux
think of it like a tabbed terminal emulator for your shell
you run tmux initially, then you run programs 'in' it
when you want to disconnect, you detach from tmux (^b,d)
when you reconnect, run 'tmux attach', and you'll be back to where you were
>>53603731
The first three yeah, but cordova allows you to 'export' your source to different platforms. The result is an app that runs using the mobile's browser in the background, if you may.
It's just an option, there are several.
If you wanna learn more about programming rather than copy pasting tho, I suggest a language like python. It was my first language and it really helped grasping all the concepts and general structures etc

Other wise you're trying to (almost) daemonize it, so you can use an init script or just ctrl+z, bg, and it will be running in the background. (not 100% sure this will work, but it's worth a try)
>>53603868
Consider ANSI C if you're after understanding.
>>53603805
So, like, you connect to your rpi via ssh and then you'd just start a program withanon@rasp-pi: ~#program &
What's a good place I can upload the Microsoft media creation tool without getting V& by Microsoft or the link getting taken down?
It looks like they made some changes to the creation tool for windows 10. they used to allow the creation of win 10m pro ISOs but now they do not. Luckily I was able to save the version that includes the pro versions.
I would like to upload it somewhere for others to easily download without the link getting taken down.

this installs it (gentoo) and runs it initially

is there any quality difference between having my monitor plugged in via display port cable vs. hdmi?
i have both, not sure which to use
>>53603925
aha, ok! not on gentoo, tought emerge was some kinda "emerge from background" deal. could you guess i'm new to unix-ish environments
>>53603924
dang
>>53603937
use display port
>>53603942
emerge is basically "apt-get install" on gentoo
>>53603937
Depends on what version of HDMI/display port
>>53603911
>& is like a bg-switch?
Yes. Normally the program would take over the terminal to start, but with & it is forced to start in the background. This is of course only useful for programs that can run by themselves and don't need any direct input by the user to even start in the first place.
>>53603888
>Consider ANSI C if you're after understanding.
Absolutely. But it might be overwhelming and tedious. It pays off tho. You can of course start with python for quick motivation and then go to C for a more formal learning
Why did my Hurricane Electric IPv6 tunnel suddenly stop working on my Raspberry Pi (Raspbian)? I just did apt-get update && apt-get ugprade followed by a reboot and now the device doesn't seem to have any IPv6 addresses.sudo ifup he-ipv6

What torrent client with a webinterface to choose for my debian server at work?
I'd like to get some webserver based client like torrentflux that allows me to directly download the torrent from the webinterface when it's finished.
Torrentflux was great but it doesn't have an RSS autodownload feature.

Two semi-related questions
Using rainmeter and dexpot on windows 7, along with the plugin raindexer. When I startup my comp, the meters all stay on even if its the wrong desktop. Going into settings and manually turning on raindexer fixes this but is there a way to have it on from startup?
Extremely new to Firefox. My homepage is an HTML document I have saved on my comp. However, when I restart my computer the homepage defaults to some windows crap. How do I fix this.

What are some good ultrawide monitors for productivity that doesn't require me to sell my kidneys to buy one
I'm looking at buying a monitor to use vertically, and I'm wondering what I should be looking for aside from it being able to pivot 90 degrees. Specifically if IPS is a big plus or not, with the better vertical (if rotated horizontal) viewing angles.
>>53605037
>I'm looking at buying a monitor to use vertically, and I'm wondering what I should be looking for aside from it being able to pivot 90 degrees
Or you could buy any screen which has screws for wall mounting and attach your own articulating arm to it.
>>53605075
Or that, you get my point that it needs some way to rotate. That will likely be more expensive though, because I'd need to buy the arm as well.

AMD Driver crashed then recovered shit.
I've been having trouble on and off for the past month with this problem. The screen starts to go all fucked (pixels everywhere, some just go black and white, sections of the screen magnified etc etc) and I've tried nearly every fix I can think of and nothing works. The only thing I haven't done is test my card in another computer because I don't have anything to test it in.
Any ideas?
>>53604289
Yeah m8. I think it's the way to go. Like I said, you'll feel motivated more easily. You'll quickly find ways of applying python (or any high level language) that fuels your interest faster than learning what the standard c establishes floats should do when converted from int etc. It worked for me.

I use Xmedia Recode to make WebM's and sometimes I have to use Avidemux to get precise frames
The problem is though, they never seem to be in sync. If I get a time of say "02:34:800" in Avidemux and then enter that same time into XMedia and encode a WebM, it won't start in the right place.
It's pretty frustrating when trying to get something to loop, any ideas?
>>53605112
both cables are the same and do the same, color is meant to help you put them in a particular order in both ends.
>>53605488
Avidemux probably isn't being told to start on non-keyframe frames, I don't know how you do that though because I always used Virtualdub to control it
