Hi guys, I've come into possession of an Iphone 5 with the latest IOS installed. The old Icloud is still on there but it asks for a password before I can remove it. If I go to apple is it possible they can remove it? Or is there a way I can get around it.
No I didn't steal the phone. It was sitting in lost and found in my workplace for 2 months.
Pic unrelated

Give the phone back Tyrone.
>>51876774
It's been 6 months. I tried to find the owner to give it back. No avail.
Also I'm white.
They still have this build...
>>51876653
Now to take it to school

Only if your Muslim. Then ask for 1 billion dollars after you get a free MIT scholarship, Microsoft care package, and news spots.
>64-bit works dubiously on Windows because Win changes the size of Int and the size of addresses whereas Linux just changes the size of address.
Is this legit? What are the repercussions?
>>51876552
>Is this legit?
Yes. int is only guaranteed to be at least 16 bits.
>What are the repercussions?
None, be a good C programmer and never assume anything about the underlaying architecture.
>>51876582
So what happens to the size of MAX_INT on Linux? Does it stay at 32bit size, whereas on Win it will be larger?
>>51876582
>Yes. int is only guaranteed to be at least 16 bits.
Well, there are the horrible preprocessor tests to determine the size of the types, but tose are icky.
When Windows API is concerned though, that's quite stable as long as one uses the WinDef.h type definitions.
What's the best equivalent to V0 / 320 MP3?
-V2 if you're going to be using MP3.
Otherwise you should really consider using something better such as Vorbis, AAC or Opus. Opus is probably the best out of those three, bitrate for bitrate, but AAC will have the widest support. Vorbis and Opus are libre as well.
Literally eating shit from your hands.

Do you use the same password for everything?

No. I use KEEPassX

First time doing this Fibonacci thing, written in Python
Is there any hope for me? what should i improve? any advice (either tips, links, book names...)?
>>51876298
>Python
>Is there any hope for me?
nope
python is great, but '__init__' made me look towards rust and go
Why would you write an iterative solution for fibonacci numbers just use the explicit formula

I enabled SmartScreen on my Windows 10 computer at work to try and repro. No luck. Maybe it really was a bad download.
Why has "meme" gone from big inside joke to something you dislike?
>he fell for the meme meme
Disliking even the concept of memes is the new insider hot meme.

Reminder to register your drones before February
Hah
drones are cancer
I'm surprised I haven't seen any clickbait scare stories about how terrorists can now just fly drones with HE on crowds.
Oh wait no, I get it now.
If they published that, the government's spy drones would get shot down as people would be scared of drones.
well, my mpd + ncmpcpp works well with my music folder stored in my internal ssd, but it doesn't work with my external hdd, the database only loads 600 songs instead of ~4000. How can I fix it ?
Make a symbolic link to your external HDD's music directory in your home music directory.
>>51876079
I have done it but didn't work.
Or maybe do I have to link entirely the HDD and not just the music folder inside of the HDD ?
>>51876602
Make the link to your music folder, clear the Playlist, readd to music directory. But desu family just move all of your music to one location on the external drive. Even without needed to set up the links it's better to Have like items in one place. I hope your room is clean.
My mother is giving me her Best Buy card to buy whatever laptop I want up to like $1500 as my big university present. I'm going for electrical engineering. What should I do with this opportunity? New Thinkpads seem shit-tier and I feel fine with my 2560p.
read the sticky and next time ask in >>>/g/sqt

What /g/ recommends?
Which are the pros and cons of each?
>>51875640
Protonmail, they are bigger and therefor more relyable
>>51875640
Tutanota, no double password bullshit, that makes Proton unusable for normies.
Whichever one is quicker to implement 2FA
So at this point it doesn't matter.
What is the perfect smartphone size and why?
For me it's 5.7-inches. I like big phones but 6" definitely feels too big.
I like 5.2 inch, its perfect
As long as it is easier to wield than my dick it's fine.
Is this post your dick size thread?

Have any of you considered leaving your tech driven lives for something more simple?
>>51874973
I read a book today . It was about programming, so there's that, so that counts.
>>51874973
No.
I want to either go live in the forest as a hermit and live off the land or be a programmer
I will do one if the other fails
