Hello, gentoomen. I have an old Nexus 7, 2011 version i believe and it is very slow. I googled around and there seems to be more people having the same problem and as per default every "tech expert" recommends resetting to factory defaults / updating firmware / updating the OS so i thought why not and did all of those. Who would have thought that absolutely nothing would be better with a clean slate?
Don't get me wrong, i do not expect such an old tablet to be fast but it shouldn't be slow as fuck without anything running on it.
Is there any good custom rom or something i could do to make it faster so i can use it for web viewing, comic books and movies without it pooping itself.
Yes it is rooted.
>yes it is rooted
Then go on XDA and flash whichever ROM has the most posts in the development thread.

Do all roms offer increased performance? I don't want a rom that bloats my device more than the standard one already is
>>53473836
Yeah, pretty much any ROM should give you better performance.
My recommendation is to find an aosp based ROM, as that will probably be very lightweight and fast.
Is there any way to decrypt password protected files?
>>53472363
Yes.
>>53472363
Put the password in
>>53472363
Bruteforce or dict - pick your preference in number of thousands of years you want to spend decrypting what is probably AES and money spent on electricity.

Hey /g/
I need to make a page on my site that will allow users to make a folder on the site of their choice, for example entering "test" will make the folder http://localhost/test and also copy all the files from http://localhost/data to the new folder and redirect the user to the newly created folder on the server. How can I do this?
Use the filesystem api from your programming language of preference.

Why is it that I have an USB-Stick with 32GB, but I can only use 29,6GB? I don't get it.
>>53472236
ask microsoft or apple
>>53472236
Because 32GB doesn't mean 32 * 10^9 bytes.
You can use 32GB. Windows is miscounting the size.
Hello my name is Ranjid and I want to convince my friends of the superiority of Linux.

Why does /g/ suddenly hate Indians? Has /pol/ invaded us??
>>53472213
have you ever tried to watch some /g/ how to on youtube? I bet not. Mate, there should be addon to block indians on youtube
>>53472213
I think it's a little xenophobia and some frustration that indians take the shitty tech jobs (which is all most of /g/ is good for)
Who here has a job? Who here stays on /g/ all day shit posting memes and contributes nothing to society?

anyone ever upgrade an iPod with one of these SSD / SD card kits? seems like a good way to get a 256GB iPod but not sure how hard it is to install.

Upgraded mine to 128GB to listen to ALAC rips. Works great.
Or use a little flash based player that natively takes SD cards, is smaller, lighter and gets better battery life.
Does anyone find that modern laptops don't let you put new OSes on them, or even boot from a CD/USB?
I've fiddled with three computers of a different brand in three different cities and states, and NONE of them allow you to boot from CD/USB in the BIOS. They all had the option to, but no way to select it. HP and Acer.
Apparently, other have this same problem, and some have found ways to remedy it, but most can't. I've tried for hours, as well as trying some "remedies" that others have found successful, with no avail. Some on HP boards...

Had an old Kindle before it was fucked up. Now iam thinking about a new reader. What does /g/ think... which is best
>>53471322
I got a Kobo Glo a couple of years back.
It's pretty nice. I haven't finished more than like ~15 books with it though since I prefer books on real paper.
Main reason to get a Kobo instead of something like a kindle is that it seemed a bit more tinker-friendly and I would have had to import a Kindle if I wanted one.
If I were you I'd see if any big electronics store nearby have kindles, kobos and sony's out for display so that you can figure out which one you like best yourself.
I really hate how they messed up the kindle. why would I want a touch display...
>>53471501
Are there even any modern readers without touch screens?
Proper buttons to turn the pages and a backlit screen are all I ask...
