Whenever I try to make a gif, regardless of what I set it as- It will always come out as 10-15 fps (even if i set it as 5 or 30 fps.)
I've tried multiple programs and it happens with each one.
Would there be some sort of problem with chrome (despite being able to view other gifs at their native frame-rate fine) or would it be my computer at fault?
If I send an email to my ISP about refusing the snooper's charter, will they suddenly start monitoring me to see why I don't like the idea of snooping?
How can i connect an HDD from my old laptop to my new laptop?
My old laptop cannot be charged anymore, but it's not worth repairing that old thing. I have some data left on its HDD. How can i save this Data? I guess i would have to remove the HDD from the device and externally connect it to my new Laptop. I could propably do the removing part on my own, but what about the rest?
>>53947712
Unless your old laptop is ancient, you'll need some sort of SATA to USB adapter
>>53947634
how do you make that gif
how do you check the framerate
>>53947712
Put it in an enclosure and plug it in via USB.
Hard drive enclosures aren't expensive at all.
>>53947732
Draw the frames, I've tried in in Flash, PainTool Sai Animation Assistant, and GraphicsGale so far.
I usually try to export them at 30fps in the basic settings and it always says that it's working, but it never exports right.

>>53947753
use ffmpeg to check the framerate and post results or post an example gif

Not really ancient. That sounds pretty easy. Thanks guys!
Can someone please explain how is this possible?
Reposting question from previous thread, like I do since week, but still hoping somebody would reply.
What are the latest stable drivers for Nvidia GTX660?
When I had GTX460 I had to stick to 314.22 due to newer drivers causing BSOD.
Now I run with situation I have to try using newer drivers, but I dont know, which version is safe. Is latest 364.72 safe? Or 362.00?
One person in previous thread gone with "get new card" but that answer is silly. How would that suppose to fix the problem.

You just need a VPN/proxy through an IP address that doesn't have a country attached to it in whatever database the board uses
>>53947844
Is there a proxy/VPN service that provides ip addresses with no country attached to it?
Also, doesn't 4chan block all proxys/VPNs?
>>53947856
Dunno
Not if you're using a 4chan pass
10 points to the person who can explain how you're supposed to attach this strap to a vented helmet...
does anyone know of a voip service that allows you to change your caller id easily - ie. without having to prove that you own the number?
Guess this is a good place to ask. I saw some article about how speakers set up to be used with ipods took a smaller stereo cable than others and it causes strange problems. Appearantly there are adapters to fix this.
http://www.amazon.com/sony-mhcec909ip-system-discontinued-manufacturer/dp/b003gzdb1q?tag=isthisnice-20
I'm getting audio out of mainly one speaker with these and I know the problem isn't the speakers or the cord i'm using, is there any other cause for this?

man not having the search bar hidden completely changes the way the de theme looks. You should hide the icons.
Check add ons and display settings, they try using an older version of de, it could be a release bug
>>53947929
Not sure if I can find the link, some blogpost was talking about it and linked to a regular female the male stereo cord page. I don't think the cord is damaged, it's just a 3.5mm male to male stereo.
Which will get me better results for video capture from a pc in terms of quality (delay isn't a concern but I'd like a feed of what I'm recording on my second monitor).
Software capture, external capture card, internal capture card, (any of the previous on separate computer).
Since my specs probably matter:
Phenom ii x4 965 black OC to 3.7Ghz
24GB DDR3 RAM (2x4GB+2x8GB) at 1600
R9 380 4GB
I'll be recording to a 7200rpm HDD most likely
I intend to record my first playthrough of Dark Souls 3 on highest settings so I'd like to know what sort of resources each option uses; I don't anticipate DS3 using a whole lot of processing power, maybe 60-85%.

try rotating the cord a bit, that could save it. check your red / black or xlr cables are plugged in properly as well (the speaker to mainbox ones)

>>53948056
It does it with multiple cords, and everything is set up fine. When I use an ipod on it the speakers both work fine, but using the stereo input makes one louder than the other. Appearantly this is a common issue, i'm just trying to explore any other solution before I dump the idea and upgrade to something else.

But I opened your gif in GIMP and the time every frame is shown at was reported to be 0ms.
When a gif is displayed at 0ms speed, the browser will slow it down to a certain default value, because it can't play that fast.
I changed the time per frame to 30ms in this picture, it should play faster
>>53948072
it's 10fps.
I'd just export all single images and then make a gif using ffmpeg.
>>53948065
Like >>53948056 said, capture cards are a waste for most people, but it really depends on your specific needs
>>53948066
Why because it's old/outdated or something else?
I only overclocked it yesterday, I'm trying to hold out until later this year when the next wave of processors come out since my only options at the moment are somewhat pricey Intel setups and I'd rather get something hefty to carry me another 3-6 years if I'm going to do that kind of spending.
Only time it reached 100% at stock clock was in GTA5 under specific circumstances, but even then there's no noticeable loss in performance.
>>53948098
So you actually use the search bar instead of the location bar?
>>53948075
wicked, easy to solve
>>53948081
could pssibly be the ipod, check with headphones? Else im out of ideas.
>>53948098
the url bar searches as well. Only if you constantly have to search stuff with a dot is it useful
>>53948144
it seems a bottlekneck, and the ram seems quite high. Ill assume you're using autocad or max or something like that?
>>53948133
>>53948130
Thank you for the insight! I'm as bright as a brick when it comes to technology and I only do it to make art gifs and the like.
Do you know of any tutorials you'd personally show me to use ffmpeg?
>>53948169
>Only if you constantly have to search stuff with a dot is it useful
Most search engines don't care about punctuation. You could do "search.with.dots" or "search with dots" it's the same thing.
>>53948169
>>53948165
>the url bar searches as well. Only if you constantly have to search stuff with a dot is it useful
not only that but I constantly use it for quick notes or copy+paste something from a site and search it later or use it in another tab etc
>>53948199
but you can't search "search.with.dots" in the address bar, that's what he meant
>>53948182
Well the 2x8GB should be arriving today and I don't have anything to cram the 2x4 into so I figure "fuck it."
I did use autocad back in school and I've actually had some ideas for junk I could "sketch" (or whatever the proper term is) lately; so it opens up that as an option.
>>53948227
>but you can't search "search.with.dots" in the address bar, that's what he meant
I know, but it will return the same results regardless of whether you include dots or not.
>>53948273
>I know, but it will return the same results regardless of whether you include dots or not.
yeah but if you don't have the search bar and only the address bar you can't copy paste something with dots and search it, you'd have to remove the dots

Looking at the reddit marketplace for windows, is there any reason to buy a Win10 key straight up rather than buying a cheaper Win7 key and then upgrading?

>>53948365
Win10 is around 40 bucks, Win7 around 20. I suppose my question was whether anyone has experience with these Win7 keys, whether they are eligible for the upgrade. If so, it is a no-brainer.
https://www.reddit.com/r/microsoftsoftwareswap/

Because I do not believe that anyone answers questions there but the sellers who would probably tell you anything to get you to buy their stuff. But it's solved now, they sell these keys for even a bit less on amazon too.

I bought a new PC case yesterday, put all the parts from my old case into the new case, and everything worked fine, boots up fully. Everything except the USB ports, which aren't working. I've checked the drivers, everything is fine. I know theres probably a multitude of reasons why this could happen, but does anyone have some solutions?
It's probably worth nothing that, while the mouse and keyboard don't work, the mouse laser does light up. And also, I have a PCI-E USB 3.0 card, I plugged the front case USB 3.0 ports into it, and those didn't work either. Because of this I'm thinking it might be software based? I'm not entirely sure, but any help would be appreciated.
>>53948517
do you also have on board USB? do those work?

>>53948611
open them up and break the discs
>>53948636
elaborate
>>53948611
overwrite with shred or dban, check smart data, if bad sectors > 0: there may be a few kilobytes of sensitive data. You can take them apart and do fun stuff with the platters and magnets. Be careful with glass platters. They are nearly flawless so there is no point for it to break and relieve stress when bent. The whole thing will explode into tiny shards.
Anyone know how to make Sumotorrent links work in QBittorrent? I can use the search engine to find them but when I click on any Sumotorrent file it doesn't add them into the downloads.

>>53947838
I think that's just the site itself always having issues maybe.
>>53948899
For anyone intersted in this,
I have narrowed the problem down to ClearType fucking with the narrow Helvetice Neue font.
I tried changing the cleartype options. That caused the Helvetica Neue font to look good, but everything else looked ugly.
My solution to this was to delete the narrow Helvetica neue font from my system. Now all those instances default back to Arial or something and are perfectly readable.
>>53948903
I did that. It will still return to its default state.

What software should I learn to 3D print stuff like this?

Maybe build a poverty spec gaymen/workstation rig around it if I got my hands on something with multiple core Xeons.
Oh well, some goodies might still be hiding in the pile of throw out servers in school.
I'm picking it up on Wednesday, still got some time to dig around the pile. There's about 15 servers there, so I still got a chance at scoring something better.
Hey /g/ I fell for the SSD meme today
got me a Samsung 850 EVO 500gb SSD, was good in benchmarks
but copy/write is shit
why?
copied testfiles from my HDD to the SSD
80mb/s tops (got limited by my HDD so this is ok)
then I tried copying those files from A to B on the SSD itself, 120mb/s tops
isn't it supposed to be a bit faster than that?
80mb/s vs 120mb/s???? Are SSDs actually a massive meme?
SSDlife says it's very healthy

what the hell are sumotorrents
Sup /g/,
I was interested if my system could handle an Occulus and downloaded the compatibility software they provide.
It says everything except my cpu meets recommended specs.
My cpu: i5 4460

Would it still work, or would I see considerable performance issues?
I've always been pretty retarded in comparing cpus and knowing each of their abilities/power.
>>53949458
I think most of us like deluge or rtorrent.
I flashed OpenWrt on my router, and I can't set username or password via telnet, because 192.168.1.1 refuses connection.
Browser interface is also unreachable (err_connection_refused).
So now my router can't do anything besides being a switch (everything else is disabled by default, until I set a password, which I can't because I can't connect to it)
What can I do? (Chaos Calmer 15.05.1;TP-Link 841N v10)

A few years ago I remember seeing this giant atx case that could hold 2 full atx mother boards and had like 12 drive bays. It was at least 4 ft tall. Anyone know what I'm talking about?
i use a stock cpu fan because my case is huge, with loads of ventilation (can fit larger gpu's without removing drive bays)
i want to downsize, to a smaller case (one where i would have to remove bays to fit my gpu)
will my cpu be in danger of overheating now?
should i buy a hyper 212 or something along with the case?

We're stuck in 2009.
CPU/RAM performance has not gone up much since. CPUs have gotten smaller and consume less power but that's about it.

>>53950181
I tried that, thanks.
I solved it by plugging it to a different PC, the initial one could've had conflicting IP adresses, but ipconfig /release and /renew didn't help... Whatever
I just used terminal on the other PC and set passwd root through that one, now I can connect to 192.168.1.1 just fine from the initial one
>>53950435
>Would zen even support ddr4 memory?
Yes.

It depends on the manufacturers, but it's very likely.
Are the multi usb cables good or will it inpact on performance on whatever I connect trough them? Was thinking about making a Usb and sound output/input panel that I can have on my desk.

What CPU generation will finally compel me to upgrade my rig?
CPU: i5 2500K
GPU: 980 x2
RAM:8gb
boot drive: 32gbssd
Storage: 1tb WD blue
Monitor: Acer predator z35
basically I see no reason to upgrade my system save for maybe more ram.
So what CPU generation will make me finally upgrade?
>>53950146
Gparted or Windows Disk manager, use the "resize partition" option.
>>53950521
>Storage: 1tb WD blue
There's your problem son
>>53950556
Go on my friend...
(Originally everything was on the blue and I just had this SSD laying around so I set it up to boot then was like, might as well use the blue for storage)
>>53950521
prolly none. If you don't count ZEN, latest cpu's are all about the botnet (forced win10) and barely about performance.
It depends on how you use your PC, but it looks like you're gonna need a couple more TB in the near future.
8GB of RAM + whatever VRAM you got is enough to go around for a few more years if you ask me.

best way to access my music on my computer from my iOS phone? I know of google play music, but can't really afford (timewise) to upload ~30GB of music on my 1.0 mb/s upload connection
i downloaded subsonic (which is essentially a server you set up, kinda like a program called Ampache)
this is working out, kinda, the only problem is I can't find a good iOS app to access this server (most on the appstore are outdated or broken)
was wondering if i had any other solutions that im not aware of yet
>>53950489
That's kind of reassuring. I was just so hyped about building a new rig I convinced a friend of mine to buy one. I set it up for him (for free) just so I can ease the stress of not building one for myself. The fact that he's extremely happy about it isn't good in this respect.
I haven't had any experience with AMD cpus/motherboards, are they usually pricier than mainstream intel motherboards? I ask because I take it that the volume is pretty low relatively and that may drive up the costs. Skylake was so disappointingly underwhelming desu.
>>53950521
Not skylake. I'm not sure intel is going to bump up their mainstream processors to 6 cores. I mean come on, only 4 cores and a new socket every year? An i7 is practically just an i5 with hyperthreading. If I had a stable setup I'd just buy something every month or so. Liquid cooling, pcie ssd, different/faster/lower latency ram, raid configuration/bay, yadda yadda. Too bad I'm stuck with a shitty motherboard/cpu until possibly next year.

Yeah I read this too. I think it's because Moore's Law isn't sustainable and Intel can only have incremental upgrades to CPU's anymore (seeing as how they ditched the Tick-Tock pacing). So they're banking on software being a big enough incentive for people to upgrade.
Shit is terrible.

Question:
What would be the best router for home use? Willing to pay extra for good features but they need to be useful and have an application not just sit there doing nothing.
Do they make open-source router firmware/software as well? Because I'm sick of this fucking proprietary firmware that has disgusting UI, hard to navigate, features all over the place, etc, etc.
What router(s) do all the linux consumed, security driven, pro-minimalistic, pro-useful features groups of people use?

Yes.
So two days ago I found a phone when I was checking out Alcatraz as a tourist, scumbag as I am I took the phone home with me.
Now that I'm back in EU I turned it on to find out it's T-Mobile locked.
So does rooting and flashing CyanogenMod on the phone remove the network lock?

Have one, got a purple streak on the screen just from pressure on the outside of the lid when it was in my bag. And Crouton breaks when ChromeOS updates itself. I turn it on its side, plug in a keyboard, and use it in addition to my ThinkPad to have a mobile multi-monitor setup. A Chromebook probably won't be able to do everything you need. Get a refurbished 1600 x 900 business laptop.

Guys I have a problem in my bash script that I don't know how to fix for my life
#!/bin/bash
echo "Write exit to return to terminal"
echo "Give an username: "
read name
while [ "$name" != "exit" ]
do
numep=`getent passwd $name | cut -d : -f 1`
if [ "$numep" == "$name" ]
then
numecomplet=`getent passwd $name | cut -d ":" -f 5 | cut -d "," -f 1`
echo "User complete name: $numecomplet"
nrp=`ps -eo user=| sort | uniq -c | awk -F" " '{if ("$name" == $2) print $1}'`
echo "Number of processes: $nrp"
echo "The given user runs the next commands:"
ps -u $name
echo "Give an username"
read name
else
echo "An user with this name does not exist"
echo "Give an username"
read name
fi
done
So everything runs perfectly except this line
nrp=`ps -eo user=| sort | uniq -c | awk -F" " '{if ("$name" == $2) print $1}'`
So when I try to get the number of processes for the current user, echo displays nothing. The thing is that if i only paste the code, without allocating the print from awk to nrp, and change $name to , let's say, my current username,and run it in terminal, the line works as expected.
Can anyone help me with this problem?

also looks like you're stuck on ancient ADSL? if you want to directly use ddwrt on a router with adsl you'll have to look through the beta builds since I'm not sure it's in their "stable" line yet
you could always disable wifi on your current router and just use it as modem

Greetings friends,
I'm looking to obtain a Google account without submitting my phone number to the botnet.
I've tried pretty much everything at this point and none yielded results, an option I have is to buy a prepaid card but they cost 50 bucks where I live, and I'd rather not waste that.
Does anyone know a working way of getting a Google account without submitting a phone number? Alternatively, if you have a Google/Gmail account laying around that you don't use I'd gladly take it.

The z170 is a good board but you'll be wasting money on features you can't use (unless you also waste money on a k variant to overclock). But hey if you don't mind paying extra for features you'll never use then get it. Pretty sure you can find an msi board for less with the same features anyway.

that phone number thing is pretty recently, my google accounts don't have a number and when it asks for one for "le security to not lose your account :^^^)" you can just not enter a number and be done with it, but this and creating a new account seems to be different
but I just tried it and just made a phone number up
make it the same format your phone number has, enter the captcha (so it doesn't try to verify with your phone) and done
I honestly don't want to create google accounts and give them to anons
don't know what anyone might do with that dump account, but it can always be traced back to me via the botnet

If you have a mac, use target disk mode:
