What will I need to create a website like this? http://magestream.org/
I've heard I'll need to know some PHP, HTML and some other language I forget. I'll also need to purchase a domain from godaddy.
I have a week to do this. Would appreciate any resources you've got. Want to create it for under €10 if possible but I can go up to €50 if necessary. I have no prior knowledge of any of these things but I'm going to be 100% NEET until Monday after next so I've got a lot of time to learn.
Thanks lads.

Is quadchan broken?
>>53700066
stop being a dumbass and downloading DVD-sized images. Debian makes CD-sized ones, go get one.

For installing Linux, use a net installer version.
For only trying it out for a bit use a USB stick and put linux on there using "linux live usb creator"
If you cant do that then use a Virtual machine.
If you are unable to use virtualbox then there is nothing you can do.

It seems you miss to understand what is GNU/Linux for.

say you had 2 55" tv's. one was 4k and one was 1080p. If you put in a regular 1080p blu ray, which one would look better? Native 1080p or 1080p upscaled to 4k on the same screen size
>>53700614
Normal viewing distance it would look the same
Close up the 4k would look better because the low pixel density of 1080p on a 55" screen would be very apparent

That's great, but what about laptops after 2010 that use Optimus for better battery life?
Just ignore that Nvidia card is there and only use the Intel drivers? That's not a solution, that's just a shitty workaround.
And remember: GPU switching on Linux is even worse than the graphics drivers.

How to clean a mouse with "rubberized" texture? I have the Corsair M65 mouse that is amazing. Problem is that the rubberized texture of it picks up and shows oil like no one's business. I was using alcohol and paper towels to rub down the mouse which worked fine but has since started to eat the rubber and cause it to peel.
I bought another M65 mouse today and don't want to repeat the same mistake.

DS games are really recourse intensive.
You might need to tweak some settings to make some games run well.
Honestly its better to just buy a DS Lite and a R4.

I'm probably going to purchase the BenQ XL2411Z, tied for the cheapest 144Hz monitor. All parts but this and a GPU have been ordered. Is there anything I need to worry about, like the specs on the GPU, to ensure this thing actually displays at 144Hz. I've noticed that the specs on most budget GPU's only rate their DVI/Displayport at 60Hz (although at res higher than 1920x1080). Is there anything I need to look out for? Should I connect with DVI or Displayport? Please don't say I should get the ASUS instead. That's not why I am asking this question.

In your case it doesnt make a difference.
Displayport is slightly superior in some ways.
Displayport has a few cool features like connecting multiple displays on a single port.
The most important feature is that displayport da NO FUCKING THUMBSCREWS!!!
But BenQ is still a shit company with their fucking stupid gamahh displays

I got Orbot on my phone, but when testing it, it says that I'm not in the tor network, and in top of that the download and upload are always at 0, doesn't feel like any data is going through tor at all. What am I doing wrong?
>>53701751
Be sure you connected the video cable in the graphics card. Also check your mobo manual. Maybe you have to do some ajust in BIOS. Also check if you connected the graphics card in the power supply.

Why do people fetishize specific old cars?
>>53701840
Or something else (your installation) is fucked, which is more likely.
My PC has been acting strange, sorry for the long post.
Whenever I start up my computer to the user screen in Windows, the keyboard and mouse don't work at all. But when I click on the mouse, it still lights up, same with the keyboard (the light indicating caps lock is on lights up) which means that they're still plugged in and working somehow (they're USB products, not the same brand).
This started a few months ago I think. Back then I'd just wait a day or so and try it again and it runs normally. But this problem's been occurring more frequently lately. It's like every time I start my PC, there's a 50% chance of the mouse and keyboard being frozen and it's driving me nuts.
The only solution I've discovered is to shut down the PC when both aren't working, unplug both of them while it's off, turn on the PC again and plug them back in when the user screen pops up. It's a hassle to do every single time, I gotta crawl under the desk and blindly look for the USB ports.
I've searched Google for help many times already, though I don't understand the answers much because my knowledge of computers doesn't go beyond the general stuff.
Should I buy a new mouse+keyboard or is it another problem?
& another thing, like I said my PC's been weird, one time I realized one of my drives just disappeared. A few days later it returns. And right now it's missing again..
Does anyone know why these things are happening?
I have two monitors, on in front is always registered as monitor two and is my primary and the one on my right is always monitor one. However even though monitor two is my primary, the BIOS appears in monitor one. How do I change this.

why the FUCK does Gnome keep reverting my side panel/dock back to the stock settings after each restart?

What does 64 bit and 32 bit mean
Will an R9 390 be enough for 1440p with decent framerates, or should I just do 1080p 144 Hz?
>>53703083
You're welcome :^)
>>53703092
In simple terms its the amount of RAM it can address
32 bit has a limit of about 3 GB, 64 bit has a limit far beyond any capacity you will see anytime soon
>>53700294
that is actually a really neat idea.
they could be fully modular mATX cases. You could lay them side by side or stack them depending on your space requirements
How exactly do we go about doing that though?
>>53703348
Also a limit in number.
Cant go over 2147483647.
Also missing the x64 libraries some programs use.
I use Thunar for file management. I have a folder full of albums and, whenever I delete one of them, the scrollbar almost always jumps to a different place in the folder. For a while it would move toward the middle of the folder, but lately it seems to prefer going to the top of the list.
That...can't be proper functionality, can it? (I like Thunar but, if moving to an alternative manager is the best option, I will.)
>>53703104
In most games the R390 will power through 1440p at 60 FPS on High or Ultra.
>>53703723
So it's really down to whether I want great framerates exceeding 100Hz or a really nice display... I'll have to decide which I want more.
Thanks anon.

Go for it, your risk is nothing at all. If it does not work you can return it.

HDMI to DVI signals convert fine. No need to buy any fancy cable just get a $5 cable from your local compute shop.

Why does this code return an error in c++Node *nodes = new Node[5];
nodes[0] = new Node();
The error: IntelliSense: no operator "=" matches these operands operand types are: Node = Node *

I picked up an i7 6700 for cheap and now I'm looking for a motherboard.
I want something with:

Would prefer open ended x1 slots.
5.1 audio output.
SATA ports perpendicular to the motherboard.
At least 1 USB type C port.
Anyone know what will meet my requirements without breaking the bank? Hoping for $150 $200 USD.

What site is this?
>>53703953
HDMI is a trendy input, more marketable than DVI which is similar physically to DSub 15.
so i want to install windows 7 or windows 8 on my hard drive that i just formatted
So would i just download an iso from kat (https://kat(dot) cr(slash) untouched-windows-7-home-premium-with-sp1-x64-dvd-u-676549-iso-t10589835.html)
get it on a usb from rufus, and install? Then use DAZ to unlock it?
My install has been freezing up at 64% or so and then it crashes. Is that a problem perhaps from the iso that I'm using? My old build was having issues w/ the ram and constantly blue-screening so I got new RAM, backed up my files, and am going for a clean install.
If I get a windows 10 iso and follow the /g/uide on the wiki, will it be passable? All I have to do for that is essentially the windows 7 thing, right?
>>53704032

check the UD5H version.
Alright, so I have an external hd that I back all of my data to.
When it comes time for backups, normally I delete all of my files and re-copy them onto the drive. But is there a better way to do this? Because it may be unnecessary to copy the same files over and over again to the drive.
Is there a program that backs up data in a better way than my method?

Windows 7, use Daz Loader
Windows 10, use Microsoft Toolkit/autoKMS
(u click the install button then the ez-activator button)
You can also use Daz Loader on W7 then just upgrade to W10
>>53704102
Your question actually made me think about it. My answer was for ease of plugging in. To the back of my computer. Yeah, I'll scrap that requirement and get a front panel type C to USB 3 MB header instead once I get some type C devices.
Thanks, I'll check those two out. Are there any others that are better or cheaper without the type C port?

If you're going to block cookies by default you should probably use a cookie manager like self destructing cookies, makes it easy to make/alter whitelists.

Try visual c++. You can make windows forms that way.
Another alternative is to learn qt or gtk and wrap your program with it.

Hey /g/, a quick one. My boot drive is an 850 Pro M.2, and it runs pretty hot compared to my other drives, ramping up to around 60c at load, when my CPU and GPU both rarely make it above 40 and 50 degrees, respectively.
Do you think there'd be any worth in attaching some of those small heatsinks (see pic) with some thermal tape, just on to the memory chips? I could get a pack of them for about $5 US.
tldr should I drop a couple bucks to cool my M.2 SSD, sperging despite its safe operating range?
>>53704620
thank you kind anon
>Amazon and newegg require cookies for shopping cart
why? shocked desu
>>53704300
What's the big difference?
>>53704666
>checked
My m.2 is directly under my GPU which makes it warmer than it would be AND I doubt I have room for these things. I don't hit 60c though. Seems kinda hot, wtf are you doing to it?
>>53704620
thank you
>>53704620
>Amazon and newegg require cookies for shopping cart
is this a good idea? shouldn't they use session or something
>>53704652
I'll be sure to check those. Do you recommend any tutorials or is it bretty easy to get into? I've just looked up visual c++ tuts beforehand so I'll start lookin' at some qt ones

I don't believe the shopping cart itself needs to be secure. Checkout? Definitely. But I can't see any reason someone would be determined to "steal" a virtual shopping cart.
>>53704703
Mine is right above my GPU, and I have plenty of clearance to add heatsinks. It's probably a consequence of my case setup. Airflow to it is blocked by my RAM, but besides that I dunno why it'd run warm. Possibly just shitty NAND lottery, if that's a thing.
>>53704721

SSD?
Mine starts off fast but i'm moving 5tb of data.
>>53705049
writes for a 4 disk raid10 should be close to the write speed of 2 of the disks combined
zfs is very much focused on accuracy over speed (or anything else, really)
it won't buffer writes on volatile memory (iirc), which can be a big performance loss, it expects you to use an ssd as a write buffer/intent log ("ZIL device")
there is an option to allow ram-based write buffering, at the cost of potential data loss in the case of a crash/power loss (not any more than other filesystems though), sync=disabled
also like other filesystems, you can disable access time writing if you don't need it which avoids writes during file accesses (atime=off)

I've got the steel series Sensei mouse and it has rubber grip on each side if the mouse and that shit doesn't take long to get noticeable oil marks from your fingers. As a rule of thumb never use rubbing alcohol on rubber just because as you have seen, it eats that shit up. What I usually do is take a paper towel and some window cleaner, it doesn't harm the rubber as far as I can tell and it makes it squeeky clean :) I have owned the mouse for 2 years now and I clean it at least 2 times a week with window cleaner (Windex or something equivalent) and the rubber has stayed in pristine condition! (Pic unrelated)

Running w10 here, trying to install mint, created a bootable USB using rufus, MBR mode BIOS/UEFI, everything seems fine, but then when I boot from this USB, it just boots into windows anyway.

So you have the USB listed as top priority in the boot process? Just want to make sure. If not, go into the BIOS and change the boot priority order.
I can only imagine it being a BIOS thing. Cant be Windows since its not really "alive" to do anything pre-boot.
Why sometimes my CD/DVD drive stop being recognized by Windows 7 ISO recorder?
This annoys me!
>>53705539
Yes, it's top priority.
It's funny -- if I plug in a random USB and boot, I get the expected hang "no bootable partition"
But when I plug in this "bootable" USB installer, it dumps me straight into windows with no comment.

Is there a way to remove the shortcut icons from specific icons or folders? Same for the giant admin shield icon, can I remove it? Running windows 8.1
>>53705587
If thats the case, then the next most likely cause is that the USB isnt formatted correctly. Try using the bootable USB tool at pendrivelinux dot com
Its super easy and can make a bootable USB for like ANY Linux distro in a jif. Great for experimenting. As someone with Win10 that USB booted, this worked for me.
>>53705767
Is there anyway I can attempt to resolve this? I'm a complete beginner when it comes to this kind of stuff.
>>53705834
yeah sure, set your DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4 and see if that helps. Assuming there is no need for the current ones, ie no active directory domain.
>>53705587
I know you said you disabled secure boot, but double check for extra options.
I had the same problem as you yesterday while trying to install Linux into my bros old AMD prebuilt.
I had to disable secure boot 3 TIMES in 3 different BIOS locations to get w10 to fuck off.
Also, try disabling fast boot.

Ive got a big collection of music movies/tv shows, but my hard drives are filling up and of course the collections are just going to continue to grow.

I don't understand the issue exactly. Can a device on your network ping 8.8.8.8, bypassing dns?
Anyone here know about Turing machines?
>>>/sci/7954207

depends on how many streams you want simultaneously and at what bitrate but a current drobo will definitely do it. I would just do a low end cpu on a mobo that does RAID1 and get two 8 TB drives.

i purchased a used gaming laptop and i've never used a gaming laptop before. ive been advised to buy a cooling pad for it
there is just the regular kind of cooling pad, slim with a fan underneath that I can get for $10, but there's a "better" one from the same manufacturer that actually has three fans underneath that you can move freely and clip on to exactly where the heat is coming from most rather than just a few stationary ones for twice the price

I used my gaming laptop with 2 different cooling pads over a span of several years. In my experience, they do nothing. The sad truth is, the machine will idle in the 40s or even low 50s and there's not much you can do about it. A pad would really be more useful for you, if you sit the laptop on your stomach/pelvis and don't want it heating your balls all day. (I heard this can make you sterile)

Well it came from my dad, so it could just be one of those "I'm old and therefore smart!" things. I've googled and found articles saying it can temporarily decrease fertility, but this isn't the same as leaving a man permanently "diminished".

Maybe years of laptop gaming broke me?

That's fine. But you don't really need a cooling pad for that, just a pad-pad.

It also helps with the heat, but DESU the heat on my new laptop is nothing compared to my old one (MSI GT725).

From what I found on AndroidForums, etc this seems to work. As for custom ROM support, I would look at what the makers of the ROMs support. Sometimes the ROMs ONLY exist for international versions. I too would like to know more about this.
