How do I create proper symlinks with a bash script?
I'm trying to get my config files linked to my repo, but if I use relative location it doesn't work, how would I do full path symlinks to the repo's files?
The install script is in the root of the repo btw.

How do I create a graphical installer for Arch? I want to make "my own" arch distribution with a simple graphical installer along with the full install having all of my custom packages, window manager, software utilities, etc... Right out of the box. Just as a little side project to dick around with and get experience. I've got my own arch setup but I don't know how to repackage all of my configs and stuff into an installer let alone add a bootable GUI installer.
>>52863147
Try NCurses
>>52863126
ln -s fullpath name
>>52863170
Thanks but how would I implement this to run when I pop in a bootable media? Do you have any sources on how to edit an arch installer? I can do all of the reading myself I don't need spoonfed but I have no clue where to start on editing an installer.
I'm planning on buying a HDD caddy to replace my DVD drive on my thinkpad. Is there any risk about a cheap chink one fucking up my drive or laptop?

But I don't have the fullpath, since the script/repo can be downloaded everywhere, so I can't hardcode it.

Whenever I make a new C++ project, the main function is given to me like this:int main(int argc, char * argv[]) {
cout << "ayy lmao" << endl;
return 0;
}
Why are there two arguments "int argc" and "char * argv[]" and what do they mean?
I mean, the program works just as fine with simply "int main(){"
>>52863147
I guess like this. Make a regular arch distro that
>automatically logs in
>starts X11 with WM like Openbox/TWM
>starts the installer
Now just make an installer in GTK or Qt that executes appropriate commands.
>implying I know what I'm talking about
>>52863345
When you use the program with command line like:./program -big -faggot
The argc stores the number of arguments (3). It includes the program name.
The argv stores the arguments:"program"
"-big"
"-faggot"
If you don't want to parse command line arguments int main() is a short cut.
>>52863355
I've read as far as,
>install arch
>Download packages
>use archiso utilities to create arch ISO
>add packages to list
But as for editing the actual processes at startup I'll have to find a way to include an automatic install launcher. Since arch already boots straight into root I just need to start the installer right after boot.
I'm really excited to gently rice an arch distro for development purposes. My goal is clean and functional but still good looking enough to catch the eye. Used for C++ development.

Sorry, I should have elaborated more.
For work related reason I need to have kik/viber/whatsapp/snapchat/keek/<insert phone based social media>
But I don't want to use my real phone number nor install any of those on my phone.
So I figured since AUR have Viber package I should simply install it and then use Google voice to register the number and activate viber.
so if i do
echo file2 >>> .gitignore
git commit -am "fixed x"
git push
it will still ignore file2 but push everything else right?

>>52863659

>>52863339
Depends on how big the monitor is and how close to your eyes it is. For a 24" desktop monitor? No.
For graphics cards, I like to use this ranking here. Just scroll down a little bit until you see the big list.

>>52863115
>>52863129
Thanks a bunch!
>>52863339
It is worth it for a big enough monitor (~27"+), also you'll need at the very VERY least a 280X to power that unless you don't mind lowered IQ settings or kicking back to 1080p for gaming.
How do I use MTP from commandline?
I have this phone and the way I usually manage USB filesystems is by manually mounting them on /mnt/ with `mount`. However, this phone shows me some random shit, idk, so I installed `mtpfs` but how do I use it to transfer some shit music to my shit device?
>>52863695
>>Also, is the charging process managed by the OS or is it done "in hard" by the engineers who designed the laptop?
Either the battery, the charger, or something in between is going to have some protective circuitry to stop the battery from being overcharged. This is what makes the battery stop charging once it reaches 100%, managed entirely by the hardware.
You might have some piece of software that allows you to set a different threshold for when to stop charging the battery, but aside from changing one value stored on a chip somewhere, the OS has nothing to do with managing the charging process.
>>52863939
Thank you.
>>52863939
Would you happen to know if this applies to (current gen) console controllers as well?
Not that anon.
>>52864047
Most definitely.
If it was made in this century and it has a battery, it applies.
With the odd exception of some (very) cheap chinese things.
>>52864060
Would you happen to have any links for proof?
I got a console fag friend that insists leaving fully charged things in the charger lowers the battery life, and I'd like to show him evidence that it doesn't.

>>52863695
A bit late, but:
>"If the battery pack is removed and the laptop is powered by a 65W AC adapter only, the CPU downclocks to the lowest multiplier and remains locked in low speed. This happens irrespective of the scaling method in use (kernelspace or userspace) and of the frequency governor selected (ondemand, performance, etc.)." - http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problem_with_CPU_frequency_scaling
>>52863611
Somewhat related, keeping your battery at 100% charge for extended periods of time will deteriorate it much faster than keeping it around 50%.
>>52864141
Thanks.

Was looking through a drawer and found old controller
Seems to work fine, if not for the button layout being a bit odd. Thing is, I wanted to try and see if I could do some shit in csgo (basically, left hand controller, but still using mouse to aim) but it doesn't seem to register the bumper (or whatever they're called) movement at all. I could bind the buttons, and I know the hardware works because dark souls did allow me to use the bumpers. Then I tried a joystick and same effect, buttons work, but the stick movement is ignored
Any idea what's going wrong, and how I could fix it?
>>52864105
It's hard to find anything that says "this is how it is for every battery/charger made."
But if you find a proper teardown video/article - one including an actual teardown of a battery rather than just taking it out of the device - of pretty much anything with a battery, you'll shut your friend up quickly.
https://www.youtube.com/user/bigclivedotcom This guy shows some pretty good examples of how even cheap Chinese shit has protective circuits to prevent overcharging.

Hi sqt, I'm considering on buying a 4Tb to my future NAS, to keep backups and things I won't use (like shows I've been watch) in a little time.
I don't want Seagate so I'm going with WD. I though Greens were the best to keep things, low consumption and such, but now I read Reds are "designed to" NAS. Someone can tell me what is better and why?
>>52864835
Green is cheap and slow. It works well for backups and archives.
Reds are faster.
>>52864831
Or should i change to Chrome instead?
>>52864862
I also read Reds was more quiet and colder, giving that more life. Is that bullshit or should I trust Amazon descriptions?
Where i can buy a refurbished thinkpad if im from mexico?
>>52864835
If I recall correctly, reds have some built-in protection against vibrations that make them more reliable in the long run when stacked up next to other drives in a tiny NAS enclosure.
But this is all stuff you can go and look up on WD's site yourself. Long story short, if you're putting it in a NAS, red > green.

>>52864835
Reds "park" when they don't are used so it increases how much they last, also the vibration protection.
>>52864487
Malwarebytes + common sense.
Adwcleaner too.
Going full paranoid?
Add JRT.
Get Reds for storage/ backups.
Greens are the cheapest and less reliable HDDs, don't trust them for backups.
And never trust amazon reviews.

Look up benchmarks for your ssd. See what kind of speeds they get for different measurements, and remember that yours will be capped at 300 MB/s.
It's very rare to be able to use an ssd at max speed anyway. A better ssd will have better speeds on other measurements, but likely still under the max bandwidth of the connection.

same chance as rolling a "6" face dice and get a "4"

A SSD that just werks? Sandisk Ultra ii.
Sandisk extreme pro for something faster.
850 EVO for something mature everyone knows works well.
It will last years based on how big it is and what you do on it, but a OS only SSD should last some years.

Can someone help me now?
I was in the middle of editing my wordpress site, when I clicked "update" on an RSS plugin. Suddenly, no site. Couldn't connect to [domain].co.uk/wp/wp-admin or [domain].com/wp
Went to my phone, found I could access it using my 4G connection.
What on earth is happening? Please help me restore access to my website.

what do you use your PC for?
>>52868224
M2 SSDs are faster, but they are way more expensive and get hot really fast.
For example Samsung 950 Pro is really fast but is $190 for 256GB, runs at 1900MB/s read and 900MB/s write. IIRC.
I cant really tell you much about them since i dont have experience with them, but they usually have problems if you are going to use it for a OS.
>>52868389

I haven't built it yet but I'll mostly use it for general internet browsing and light gaming.

I've been having video crashes lately where I'll be in a game and my computer will crash to a solid color screen, usually blue, green, or brown. It doesn't completely crash my computer because I can still hear my spotify music playing, but I can't see the error message because my computer is on that screen.
Is my gpu fucked? I have an Asus 970 that I bought at release.

Im planning to buy a computer form a pawn shop, what do i have to have in mind when buying it?
Checked smart data to check if the HDD was fucked, laptop had only 7 months of use according to SMART data, and looks really good.
Im changing the HDD for a SSD anyway.
Charger is a mess but they are cheap, HP BIOS look like a mess too.
Had a quadcore I5-25xxQM but i dont remember which one.
>>52868623
nothing unusual with temps that I've noticed. it will happen in really easy to run games too like Rocket League that shouldn't stress it too much. not overclocked, no. I did have it at one point but it was reset and I haven't bothered to redo it.
What do you guys think of glossy vs matte displays in laptops?
I'll mainly use my laptop for internet shitposting and movie watching in my bed and the rare uni project.
>>52868690
It's a matter of preference.
Personally, I prefer glossy. Generally seems sharper and brighter to me. Glare has never been an issue for me.

>>52869314
can't 7zip do this?
>>52869332
No idea dude you can mount iso's? or extract it?
>>52869346
you don't need an external program to mount isos in windows 10, the OS can do it (finally).

It seems like it's one of those things were I just have to wait it out until they fix their shit, but mom is getting all pissy on the phone about how I fucked up the computer with that firefox virus I installed a few years ago (even though I didn't but w/e)

do the stuff you want dimmed on another screen and decrease the brightness on that monitor? turn flux off and tape some white paper over the parts you do want dim? sit further away from the screen/take more breaks?

read up on fans in general. For radiators and shit close to cpu's you need high static pressure. Look up the decibels to see how loud it is compared to others. Blah blah google http://www.tomshardware.com/faq/id-1858957/airflow-101-setting-fans-keeping-computer-cool.html

My mouse "escapes" my monitor that i start up steam games on.
I went to play CSGO and Portal, and everytime i move my cursor to the right to turn, it pops off of the game monitor and goes to my non-game monitor.
I used to have 2 xservers(one per monitor).I moved to 2 monitors on one physical device and it still goes this.
I made sure each game is in fullscreen mode.
What do?
>>52870184
Since the start? That was one of its selling points. The version it ships with is closed source, but it has an open source equivalent called OneGet, kind of like Chrome vs Chromium.
how do I make this work, I know how to give one computer with the bridge thing without the router, but i need to give 3 computers internet. pls help
>>52870190
Is there an option to give it exclusive fullscreen? That should stop the mouse from escaping.
>>52870215
it's not in the enterprise version. at least not for me but i haven't booted windows in a month. is it any good?
>>52870243
Yes i have set fullscreen mode on every game i have tried, and each time the mouse leaks over in to the next screen,

goddamnit, I kinda imagined I needed that, I forgot to grab one at work but now it's closed. ill ask the boss if i can fetch one. there is no way that i can use the tp link as a switch, right? thanks anyway
Using Google Chrome and my log in won't stay on Pixiv, or 4chan inbuilt settings. It saves every other site, but not these. Not using ghostery to block it either.
Any idea what could cause this ?
>>52870412
You'd be better off just using a switch instead of bridging it from your main computer, io and network hogging putting 4 nics worth of bandwidth on one line. etc

i dont have a cable coming for the main router. it's wifi, and cant bring a cable from the cisco router to the computers that i need to give internet
I have windows 7 installed on a vhd that i've been booting into ram via grub4dos. The only way I can save anything is by loading it into virtualbox. When I boot directly, a bunch of drivers are installed, and a reboot is required, but any changes made are lost upon reboot. Any way to fix this?
>>52870593
So you have a modem connected to a cisco router which is connected to computer 1 which is bridged to a wifi access point which serves computers 2-4?
Why not just get a wireless router and take out the extra steps
So your modem is to the wireless router and everything else connects to it wirelessly, optionally having computer 1 with a wired connection
My internet is acting weird. I can download shit at 2.4mb/s and i can browse the web and shit but in online games I get terrible lag. My ping is low, but i still jump around and lag a fuckton.
what could be causing this? I'm using a wireless usb adapter for wifi. This has only been a problem for the past couple days.

ill update the picture, didnt explain very well

maybe your ISP throttles p2p connection?

You might get low pings but if it routes you on a congested line, there isnt anything you can do

Ive never used a tp link, but looking it up it has a single rj45 on it.
I honestly cant think of a way to do it with just the tp link.
Can you just take the modem and put it in to the tp link directly or is the tp link not a smart device?
