Anybody using a oneplus one (with cm 12.x) with an outlook calendar? if so, how? anything I tried either doesn't sync or I can't add the outlook credentials as an exchange account.
If I install android x86 on a laptop will I be able to install apps on it like tinder etc?
Alright, /g/. This shit puzzles me. I updated my LG G3 to Marshmallow and suddenly a portion of the screen stops responding to touch. I then downgrade thinking it could be a bug with the new OS and the same shit happens on older OS. Is it a hardware issue then? There are no cracks or damages to the screen.
>>54288661
Did you try wiping it completely and then flashing kitkat? also theres touch testing apps, try those and see if it responds at all.
>>54288495
yes, it should be possible, although sometimes apps need playstore services and other things to function - what most android images don't deliver, so you would have to tinker around or find a full matching tutorial to make this work.
>>54288714
I had a cheap android phone which I used for tinder and I just accidentally smashed it. And need it because am meeting up with someone off there later.
Trying to work out the easiest way of getting back onto tinder without going and buying a new phone. I have a chromebook, laptop with lubuntu and old thinkpad with windows 7. whats the easiet way?
>>54288341
Yeah I do, I don't know why you are having problems though it just seems to work for me.
>>54288742
for chrome theres that android apps emulator thing (just quickly google it up) - maybe that could work.
you could also try amiduos or bluestacks on windows to emulate the android apps. (the easier way I think)
>>54288788
Are you running cm12? and how did you manage to set it up with the standard app boxer?
>>54288694
Yep it was a complete flash and back to Lollipop from Marshmallow. These are the lines that appear. A vertical line that doesn't register touch. I could try Cyanogenmod aswell but I'm sort of sceptical on that.
>>54288827
does the multitask onscreenbutton work? it seems really weird, because some parts in that dead area are still working fine. I don't know if cyanogenmod could do anything about this, but trying is ofcourse the best you can do - seems more like an actual hardware failure though. Also what if you landscape (turning the actual landscape mode on, not just rotating the phone physically) the phone, does the dead area still stay or does it rotate too?
>>54288922
Multitask button works. When I turn landscape mode on, then the dead spot remains at the same spot. But yeah when I think about it, it does seem like hardware failure. I think I'm going to send it in for repair since G3 is a pretty damn good phone.
>>54289045
I have the G3 laying around here too and the battery dies (literally - the phone restarts itself because of that) after some time, its a well known problem, so if they offer you to get another phone for a bit more up-price, I would recommend on doing it, because the original batteries I had seen, cost around 30$ or are some cheap chinese rip-offs that dont hold even 1 hour of charge. good luck anon.
>>54289087

If one doesn't work out try switching, it's not hard. Just make sure to keep a backup of your data off-site in case you fuck up your partitioning.
could i potentially infinently encrypt a file?
so it looks like this:
>file (encrypted)
>folder (encrypted with different key)
>folder (encrypted with different key)
>folder (encrypted with different key)
>folder (encrypted with different key)
etc.?
wouldnt that make it possible for a file to be virtually inaccesible without the 100+ keys?
So why does it says 669 MHz when I have 1333 MHz RAMs?
>>54289901
>DDR
>Double Data Rate
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR_SDRAM
>>54289862
No, because it would require infinitely many folders and infinitely many passwords, which is impossible.
It is, however, possible to encrypt encrypted files again, yes.
> virtually inaccessible
Nope, just make it less likely for someone to crack it and less convenient for you because you have to type 100 keys.
> just use short keys
Defeats the purpose of having many keys in the first place.
the anti-amd people are just trying ot fuck with me, right?
>>54289937
couldnt i carry with me a micro SD card with a script that uses all the keys? easy to destory. keep it on me inside a necklace or something small like that.
>>54289963
honestly if you can afford it just get a intel i7 CPU
wait for 2017 when AMD will just be better than NVIDIA, right now nvidia has the better cards, hate to admit it. AMD is a better company that is trying to make free versions of what nvidia is making people buy : gsync - freesync etc
>>54289963
Maybe
It is true that AMD is lagging pretty far behind in IPC
>>54289809
Thanks for the heads up lad. I'll do some research.
>>54290013
That way you risk losing your keys and with them access to your files. Also if someone gets their hands on that script (and probably the rest of the data on the card) all your added security is for naught since they now know which files to use in which order.
Just pick a strong passphrase, maybe two, change them every few months and you're good to go.
Nobody cares about your furry porn anyway.
>>54290076
i dont actually encrypt anything, i just had that idea while watching some snowden documentary where he said that cracking an encryped file would take just a few days
>>54289770
Xubuntu is the best world of everything imo, but Ubuntu is the most common base for this (quite resource heavy though)
Is there an easy way to download via SoulSeek? I have more than 100 albums and even more single songs and I can't be bothered to download them one by one.
>>54290110
> cracking an encrypted file would take just a few days
This depends upon so many factors it's ridiculous.
The fastest way to crack any sufficiently safe encryption is to bribe someone and/or cave their head in so they'll tell you the password.
>>54290110
That's dependent on the strength of the password
A strong enough password and modern encryption is practically immune to cracking by current means
>>54290013
>>54290018
I meant cpus
>>54289770
I like Ubuntu Mate more, but that's because I used Gnome 2 for years.
>>54290156
That's what IPC is most relevant to
So I'm trying to copy over a large amount of tv shows and movies from an old HDD with some bad sectors to a new one. Occasionally some of the files will be in one of the bad sectors so Windows takes ages trying to copy, then eventually throws up an error. If I try to cancel the copy process then half the time windows explorer does that thing where it crashes and dissappears. I can get it back with running explorer.exe but then it won't open any explorer windows anymore.
So does anyone have any tips either for a better method of moving this data, fixing the problem with explorer or maybe even doing a scan that tells me what files are stored in bad areas, so I can know to just avoid them?
>>54290127
>(quite resource heavy though)
Oh, well then that won't do at all, I need something light since it'll be on a shitty, dying compaq.
>>54289045
This is a digitizer failure. I know because the same shit happened to me twice in the last month. First my LG G2 did it, then I bought a BLU Life One X to replace it and it did it too. It's not worth replacing if you're out of warranty as the part is nearly as expensive as the whole phone and it could just fail again.
How long should an encryption key be?
>>54290212
>>54290195
no, but I'm in a similar situation and would like to know if there's a simple way to index the contents of a hdd so I at least know what stuff I'm losing and have to replace, in the case of stuff that's big and easy to get hold of

Is it possible to download only a select scene from a film from a torrent? Like, target the first few sections to get the video header data and then the sections in a row in the middle of the file, then somehow stitch them together?
this would be if the torrent file is a video file not if it is compressed in a rar or something
>>54290238
i dont get how to read this, so if i have a 10-digit one its too small?
or a 30 digit one?
so is it saying i need to make my encryption key 120 letters? seems bs to remember
>>54290379
fucking read what it says retard
>>54289770
Xubuntu, like others suggested, is a good choice for your babby steps.
I personally would suggest Crunchbang or a similar distro, since it is basic enough to function for everyday tasks, but for some other ones will require you to mess around with configs a bit, teaching you in the process.
Crunchbang is also very lightweight, using Midori as my web browser I use around 300-400MBs of RAM.
>>54290484
it astonishes me that #! and debian are lighter than xubuntu
>>54289963
No, Intel is superior because most coders are lazy.
Most programs work on 1-2 cores and intel has better single core performance.
AMD single core performance sucks so they add more cores to compensate the lack of power.
AMD cpus are inefficient as fuck too when it comes to how much energy they use.
AMD APUs are good because the "powerful" IGPU.
>>54290554
why do you "" powerful?
if windows uses the term execute to create a new process and linux uses the term kill to stop a process does that mean windows users are sociopaths and linux users are psychopaths?
>>54290595
Because its a IGPU so i wouldn't really call it powerful but does the job really well, better than intel IGPUs.
For a low end computer where you will never add a GPU it would be great.

>>54290794
>>54290806
It's so caked on at this point that compressed air isn't doing much. I'll give the Qtips and alcohol method a try.
How long would it take me to learn how to program my own video games?
Is it harder or different from regular programming?
>>54290873
You could use windex and try to rip the dust coat manually with something.
How bad is it? Post pics.
>>54290927
Note, dont use windex on the HSF, only on fans.
>>54290927
Can't post a meaningful pic because my camera sucks.
>>54291063
remove the fan from the heatsink and use a cloth/cotton bud to wipe the fan down
for the heatsink compressed air works, the cans are a little underpowered and air compressors are better but try to get a water trap if you do have one (they may tend to spit out rusty condensation)

i'm pretty new to linux and i have a question:

Is it possible for a damaged PCI-express slot to have detrimental effects on gamma, contrast, and other aspects of video, or would it just cause instability or failure to boot?
I installed Linux Mint 17.3 64-bit onto my laptop via a USB. During the installation, I told it to wipe my old OS (Windows 8) and it did that fine. Now, when I boot up my computer without the USB plugged in, it says there's no boot device, and when I boot with the USB in, I can only access the trial. When I go through the installer again, it says it's detected another OS, which is just the install of Mint.
Any ideas on where I fucked up?

Hey /g/ I'm building a PC and I have everything all together besides the GPU. Running an i7 6700K, ASUS Z170Pro, SSD, etc. Anyway I am looking at GPUs and I am having a really though time. My current monitor is only 60Hz but I'd like to upgrade to a 144Hz monitor in the future (I play a lot of FPS games). Looking around at cards I thought the 980Ti would be good but a bunch of people are telling me to go with AMD cards and then I hear Nvidia is coming out with new cards at Computex most likely. So what should I do for GPU?

>>54292127
"So what happens? Nothing. Windows 10 Home or Pro is installed, and you can use it. There are just two limitations that I have come across:
Watermark on the lower right-hand corner saying Activate Windows
You cannot use anything under Personalization e.g. change wallpaper, accent colors, lock screen, themes, etc. All options are there, they are just grayed out and inaccessible
Other than this you have a fully-functional Windows 10 OS. There are no nag prompts either and yes, you get all system updates (at least for the year)."
I dont know how true this is, but if it is ill never activate Windiws ever again.

I'm completing the chapter exercises for the Java book I'm using and I'm curious about this one.// Calculate future investment. The formula for computing a future investment is:
// futureInvestmentValue = investmentAmount * (1 + monthlyInterestRate)^numberOfYears*12
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Chapter2_PE_2_21 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter investment amount: ");
double investmentAmount = input.nextDouble();
System.out.print("Enter annual interest rate in percentage: ");
double monthlyInterestRate = input.nextDouble();
System.out.print("Enter number of years: ");
double numberOfYears = input.nextDouble();
double futureInvestmentValue = investmentAmount * Math.pow( (1 + monthlyInterestRate), (numberOfYears * 12));
System.out.println("Accumulated value is $" + futureInvestmentValue);
}
}
According to the book, I should get something like this if I enter the specified values:
Enter investment amount: 1000.56
Enter annual interest rate in percentage: 4.25
Enter number of years: 1
Accumulated value is $1043.92
Instead, I get:
Enter investment amount: 1000.56
Enter annual interest rate in percentage: 4.25
Enter number of years: 1
Accumulated value is $4.386870130773197E11
I'm pretty sure it's a math error in futureInvestmentValue but it "looks" right to my babby eyes. What should I change about my math?
>>54292389
I was unfamiliar with the concept of a low profile bracket, after looking it up, I agree. It should definitely fit.

I'm not really sure what I should use actually. I thought my program would become more understandable and obtain higher cohesion if I represented the main data as an linked list.

Can someone tell me why this is happening?

I have always had this problem. Linux freezes/crashes every time I use it. Doesn't matter the distro; Arch Linux, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE. I have been trying to install Ubuntu Server for the past 30 minutes and it has frozen twice in random areas of the install for fucks sake. I also think this was a problem with OpenBSD as well but I don't remember if this is the case. The system does not crash or freeze on Windows ever however, and I don't think Microsoft is fucking my shit up because Linux also froze when I completely replaced Windows with Linux.

>what is systemd and why do people dislike it
systemd is responsible for starting and maintaining system services(i.e., it's an init system), people dislike it because systemd is extending into areas that you typically don't want an init system to extend to and is doing stuff in a very problematic (for lack of a better term) manner and the developers attitudes to complaints, bug reports, issues, is very blasé

you didn't install a bootloader or somehow managed to overwrite the mbr
it'd be trivial to fix with some knowledge but if it's a fresh install it'd be easier to just reinstall, I can't say for mint specifically but just pay attention during the installation because it may ask if you want to install a bootloader and should ask you where to install it (in this case it sounds like you installed it to the usb stick)

So i moved 32gb sdhc from motorola moto g to new moto x play, and when i connect the new phone to my pc with usb cord the phone folder is empty and i can't add anything. I have a bunch of media there which i can see and use no problem inside the phone. What do?
When i try to drop something in there it says: "the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected"
>>54294141
Try seeing if it says "USB plugged in for charging" on the phone when you plug it in. You can then change it to file transfer.
I went as far as downloading some wifi data transfer app before figuring it out.

Anyone has a /g/ approved guide on how to de-botify Winshit 10 ?
Are there any e-readers that will let me highlight passages and then easily let me export the highlights to the PC?
I need to make an Alternative account for a program.
However, this program cant accept a Paid Account and a Trial Account on the same pc.
Meaning that if I wanted to use this Trial Account I would need to access to it on a different PC, which I dont have.
Is there a way to do this in my current PC?

Are you legit retarded? Read his question again.
I have a old notebook with 190mb RAM and no HDD, can I do anything with it with linux and a USB pen drive or I should just trash it
>>54294692
yes, you can run linux on it from the usb drive, but honestly with that amount of ram, I'd just trash it
>>54292408
Can anyone answer?
>>54294793
You cant.
Just use Daz loader.

Hi guys, I tried to set up a NAS with my raspberry pi following this guide :
http://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-nas/
on my home network it works like a charm, so I went outside and connected my laptop to my phone's 4G and attempted to ssh into the pi :ssh [email protected]
and then, nothing happened, the terminal was pending (my laptop is running ubuntu 16.04)
so my question is : how do I access my server via a computer that's connected to another network ? Maybe it's a stupid question but that's why we're here, I did this only to learn a little about servers.

OEM keys can only be used on the original motherboard they came with, they cant be used in other devices.
Just download the W7 ISO from Mydigitallife pastebin and crack it, or try to use the same key if it works.
>>54294917
I already have a ISO. When I'll install it is it enough to install normally, then download the Daz loader and use it? Or do I have to specifically crack it?
>>54294949
Install windows 7, skip verification and once you are done installing and you can use windows just run it.
I have a thinkpad x201 which is quite old but I don't wanna change it just yet
It keeps overheating (/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/tempreports 100 sometimes) and when it's over 100, it just shuts down
In idle mode it ranges about 44, but I often run long machine learning algorithms and that's when it dies. In order to clean it, I just open it up a bit and blow into the fan, and surprisingly it fixes the issue for maybe several days, after which it starts overheating again
what do?
>>54294949
daz should work fine, if not try mstoolkit or kmspico

I've heard insurance companies really don't like when you stick electronics inside wood. Is this true?
>>54295028
But isn't it supposed to tell you it's updating? It happens literally every time I shut down. And sleep is instantaneous. So I'm just fucking confused.
>>54294911
you will have to connect to your networks external IP, which you can find at https://ifconfig.co/
then make sure you have opened port 22 for the pi in your router

Please do explain me what he means then, because that's the only sense I can give to the question.

This is a seriously stupid question.
I have an unrooted phone because reasons (waiting for stable stuff) and I'd like to be able to set one person on my contacts so that it'll vibrate/ring whatever when they text or call, but have everything else as silent. Is that even possible? Seems like it's one or the other on a lot of things, but I've been sort of messing around with it to no luck.
I'm on Android, but this probably isn't doable. I'm just asking a stupid question.
>>54295069
Well, starting with that you can get W7 and W8.1 for free with no downsides it was quite a bad idea.
Also W7 keys go from $4 to $7.
am I the only one who if I run into a bug or problem on linux, who goes searching for another distro. not because shit isn't fixable but because it's never just one bug
>>54295100
>blaming a distro for having a bug
>think changing distro is going to change the same version of the program,that still has the bug.
Yes,Its just you
>>54295063
Oh okay thanks, I guess the external IP is the big IP at the top of the page ?
eeeeh ... how do I do that ?
>>54295115

Yes, it was a VERY stupid idea, but I've learned my lesson. Could've bough a case of beer with that money... fuck

Mp3tag should work.

>>54295144
Try to use the key when you are installing windows, if it works, it should work.
But Microsoft doesn't like OEM keys unless you spend around 2 hours explaining how you got the key and why is that you want to reuse that key and where.
Reason why Microsoft didn't let you download the ISO with that key.

>shitty distro
8 years stable.Only time it fucks up is when i dont config it properly
>isolated by distro
So you hop on your distro and program 1 is bugging out,your search on line and find a bugtracker that has the bug filed properly,the dev says it will be pushed in the next version which is still being dev'd as it is a milestone release.
Show me a distro that will make its own edit to softare from upstream.Having to create their own code from scratch to fix the bug,that might introduce new bugs which the distro has to then fix the chain.
So no,that isnt how it happens
>>54295118
yes, thats right!

There are a few programs like ID3tag-IT for pc that bulk modify id3 tags.
You can either plug your phone into your compy and point one of those at your music directory or do it by hand.
(not sure about other players, but Powerampmasterrace has a built in id3 tag editor)

But I want ads blocked from the twitch app, will adaway work for that?
>>54295586
Yes, there should be a modified version of the twitch app that blocks the ads too.
Also you can cut the ads using the home button and return to the twitch app and it will stop playing.
Also a recommendation, disable automatic updates on aps that are working fine and you like.

I'm trying to dual boot Ubuntu, but it won't detect my partitions, it only shoes the whole HDD and says it is free. I think the problem is that there i mixed MBR and GTP data, it says so in Linux terminal with certain commands. To erase the stray GTP, do I have to format the whole partition?
