Been trying to figure this bastard out a while and have drawn a blank.
Given a list of strings, and another singular string how can I test that the singular string contains all characters of listed strings in order. Not next to each other, but in the order they were in the individually listed strings.
Fuck this is a cunt to explain so:
String 1: abc
String 2: def
String 3: aqwdbuuefc <- would be true,
as both string 1 & 2's characters are there in the order they are in their individual strings.
Is there any way to DL copyright protected youtube videos (e.g. music videos)?
I usually use the "Video Downloadhelper" plugin for FF to download videos, but they obviously don't work for copyright protected videos, and I'm aware of the VLC trick to download videos, but of course I get a 403 forbidden error when I try to do that.
I was able to somehow do this successfully in VLC about three months ago, but I wasn't exactly sure how I did it, and I haven't been able to replicate it since. My only idea is that I had multiple YT tabs open on many different videos, which threw the server off.
how badly can I fuck my shit up installing a cpu cooler? I followed all the instructions, added paste (did I put enough/too much??), but it was awkward as fuck to screw on so it probably didn't evenly apply pressure as it went on. and is it on too tight?
I have diagnosed mild OCD so this stuff stresses me out a lot and I don't want to turn it on to blow it up yet
>>51396131
if it's still true as long as the characters appear in that order at least once, but duplicates don't matter
(with string 4 = baaaabcddfdef being true).
iterate along string 3, comparing against the current index for each of string 1 and 2 (say i and j for string 1 and string 2). increment i and j as you find the character at that index. if you reach the end of strings 1 and 2, then it passes
if the assumption is bad then it's harder
>>51397103
I had thought of this approach, however imaging we had 100 strings in our list. Then this approach becomes more pain than it's worth.
No?
I'm new to computer building. Does the size of the GPU effect it's performance? I see two 4gb EVGA GTX 960s, the smaller one is cheaper. Does that mean I'm getting shafted somewhere?
>>51397126
yeah probably a pain. this is interesting. maybe something to do with a trie?
>>51397192
I'm thinking perhaps to iterate through the list of strings, testing each against the superstring. incrementing a counter as you mentioned.
Use a boolean that initially is set to true, then if this any string along the way is not a subsequence, change this to false, thus exiting the loop.

Around how much money can I save if I order a 1000$ build during black friday/cyber monday?
>>51397126
if you can use quadratic storage, you can make a 2d array with each possible character in both dimensions. iterate over string 3 with two pointers, marking say after[a][b] to true if b comes after a. then it's linear for each string 1, 2, etc. after quadratic preprocessing on string 3.

I'm writing stuff in LibreOffice Writer and I like it a lot, especially the spell-checking features, but there's this problem (see pic) that sometimes happens when I'm writing in "justified" paragraphs.
I don't know if I accidently pressed a keybind or clicked something, I couldn't find a way to return it to normal justifying style. Do you know if it's a glitch or a feature that I can turn off manually?
I tried deleting the whole paragraph and write again from scratch but the problems repeats itself every time, strangely it only affects some paragraphs and not all the text file. I found a temporary "fix" exporting the document as RTF and then import it back but, in the process all the fonts get messed up, I wish I could avoid that.
I just downloaded a bunch of JAVs and I'd like to use FFMPEG to scale them down to 720p since the file sizes are fucking massive, seriously they're like 5gb each.
I haven't used FFMPEG before, I managed to get it installed and running, but I'm kind of at a loss for what to do next. Can anyone recommend what settings I should use to reduce the filesize and keep the image quality acceptable? I have next to no experience with video encoding.

Recently some government guys installed the new boxes in my house for the National Broadband Network, and apparently it's all set to go except that they say I need to wait for them to send me a new router, because it'll only work with the new one.
That seems really weird to me because it'd probably be a huge problem for a lot of companies if a ton of their routers became useless.
So I'm curious, why would they say that I need to use their router? Why can't I just use my old one?

A question about CS on binary and hex... I just learned the basis of it but there is this thing I don't understrand, first I'd like if you could tell me whether my assumption of this is wrong or right:WORD (BYTE + BYTE):
[1(a) + x(b)]
[1(a) + 256(b)]
x = 16^2
e.g:
a = 6C = 108
b = 1A = 26
6C + 1A = [1(6C) + 256(1A)] = [1(108) + 256(26)] = 6764
Is this a correct way to describe a WORD? I used an hex editor to verify the results and they seem to match, but I don't know if this is the actual method or just a coincidence.
My other doubt is about the 16^2 part, why is it 16^2 in the first place?
That aside, here is another thing:DWORD (BYTE + BYTE + BYTE + BYTE):
1(a) + x(b) + y(c) + xy(d)
1(a) + 256(b) + 65536(c) + 16777216(d)
y = x^2
e.g:
a, b, c, d = 01 = 1
1(1) + 256(1) + 65536(1) + 16777216(1) = 16843009
I was trying to give a logic to the values of DWORD's and this formula seems to be working, but those big numbers leave me a bit worried, is it yet another coincidence?
While screwing with the hex editor I found other two values called "32 bit IEEE single" and
"64 bit IEEE double" but doesn't matter whatever I tried, I couldn't make sense of these two values so I gave up, I forgot to google it so I'll give it a google later but if you have any tips, please let me know.
One last thing, I noticed strange numbers coming from WORD's when using hex values close to FF.
This is what a 257 bit WORD gives me:01 as shortint: 1
01 01 as word: 257
01 01 as integer: 257
01 01 01 01 as longint: 16843009
It seems to match my "theory" from before, but here is the problem I mentioned about values close to FF:FF as shortint: -1
FF FF as word: 65535
FF FF as integer: -1
FF FF FF FF as longint: -1
I'm out of ideas, why is the hex value FF FF returning a negative integer? what kind of maths did the CPU run to return -1 instead of 65535?
Other times seems like integer = word
and longint = dword.
What are these blemishes on the pads? Do you see? What is it mean? Is the cpu bad?

l3 cache is shared by all cores, and is the largest, however it is the slowest. Maybe 500 cycles to access.

So I just bought my first GPU: an r9 280x. I got it just in time to play Fallout 4 (inb4 pleb). But when I run it, it looks jittery as fuck no matter what quality I set it to. Is it my shitty CPU bottlenecking the GPU? Or is it just the game? How fucked am I?

speccy reports the actual clock speed of your ram
but since its DDR (double data rate) it's effectively 1600.
>>51400251
it's probably a combo of your cpu and the game.
open task manager and msi after burner (or whatever your prefered riva tuner alternative is) and look at your gpu load

Try either Proxmate or Hola Unblocker(get the Hola browser extension as apposed to the desktop client).
>>51402978
Thanks for the answer.
Is Hola Unblocker safe? I've seen mixed reviews so far.
>>51402980
Safe in what way? As in gubment is watching me or safe as in non-malware? None of my AVs/AMs (Avast and Malware-Bytes) have picked up anything dodgy post install, so in the malware sense it seems safe to me. If you don't like the look of Hola then Proxmate is definitely your best bet.
>>51395975
/g/, realistically
i use fb messenger for fb friends, kik for non fb friends, and regular old sms for texting
why would i use one of the trillions of other messaging apps instead?
>>51402992
No, not worried about the government. Just the whole malware thing and others have said that it messes with their browsers but I'll use Hola Unblocker for a while and then if I find flaws I'll go try Proxmate. Appreciate the answer anon.

I've got a server with a database, when I'm playing with the database on PHPmyAdmin it seems out of date. Some collumns seem missing that I added yesterday, and search querries don't seem to work.
But... My android application does get all the data, even the collums added yesterday. I just inserted a new row, and when I search for it in PHPmyadmin it doesn't find shit, but if I open my application it is shows everything.
TL;DR: is there a way that PHPmyAdmin is bugged and hidding data from me someway?

My gpu has been behaving very strangely. I just noticed it today while playing Fallout 4, my normal fps (60fps) got cut down to 45fps.
So I decided to test the issue. I restarted my computer, opened up evga precision x, and noticed that my gpu runs at 35 C with my custom fan curve on.
Then I opened up fallout 4 and went to an area where my fps is at a constant 60fps and waited for half an hour, not touching/playing the game.
When i returned to my computer, I noticed that my fps has yet again been cut down to 45fps.
I closed the game, and waited a couple mins and checked out evga precision x.
As you can see in pic related, its stuck at the boost clock and for some reason its reading 47 C at all times.
Relaunching fallout 4 doesnt work, it just starts up at a constant 45fps.
The only way to get the normal fps i usually got is to restart my computer completely, and even if i do that playing any sort of vidya for a bit of time will cause my gpu to lock up like this and my fps plummets.

Why aren't OLEDs a big thing yet? It's common on phones, are inexpensive to manufacture and isn't power consuming. Is it a market strategy perhaps?

Look carefully at the sign on word. Obviously its an UNSIGNED Value. Every other one is signed...
Then..again for 01 WORD is again unsigned.
What are you missing? the Sign of a int is stored as the first bit. ( and if its unsigned, the first bit adds to the numeric value...)

Last night I powered down my minecraft server and put as switch into the mix in order to have more servers downstairs. So now my network connection from WAN to minecraft server looks like this:
cable modem > router > powerline connection > unmanaged switch > minecraft server
I fired the server back up and played on it a little last night without issue, but today I found out that it's only visible to my LAN or something; I can't connect to its dynmap, I can't connect to the server via SSH or rcon. Yet my router is definitely up and pingable. My suspicion therefore falls on the switch, but I'm not sure how a dumb switch could have changed anything.
When I attempt to SSH in it gives a "EHOSTUNREACH (No route to host)" error.
How is the switch affecting things, /g/?

I meant dealing with transfers suddenly stopping. When I transferred all of my smaller files, It would die and I would restart it. Resume the transfers.
But.. It doesn't resume where the file left off, only the order.
I need it to resume the /file/.
