I was browsing files using Nemo on Ubuntu as a superuser and I deleted a ~4GB folder. It deleted itself in an instant, with no wait time, which surprised me. The problem is, that after it got deleted, there is no more free space on my partition than there was before.
Any ideas what have happened and how can I fix it?

Why does my SDcard on my android phone show up as blank? I formatted it to FAT32 after backing up the files on it. It shows up on its own and with a micro SD adapter (using a reader) on my laptop.
I had received the phone as a hand me down from two years ago and I think the slot itself is messed up.

Why is my CPU speed going over the max speed when I didn't overclock it? I'm using high performance mode with a AMD a10 7850k.

Asking again for sanity's sake
I'm trying to embed Lua into C++, so i put a copy of the include files from Lua 5.1 into the folder the main C++ code lies in, and used the codeextern "C" {
#include <lua5.1\lua.h>
#include <lua5.1\lauxlib.h>
#include <lua5.1\lualib.h>
}
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
lua_State* L = luaL_newstate();
luaL_dostring(L, "a = 10 + 5");
lua_getglobal(L, "a");
int i = lua_tointeger(L, -1);
printf("%d\n", i);
lua_close(L);
return 0;
}
But when i try to compile i get the errormain.cpp:2: lua5.1\lua.h: No such file or directory
main.cpp:3: lua5.1\luaxlib.h: No such file or directory
main.cpp:4: lua5.1\lualib.h: No such file or directory
What do?
>>54791196
The performance (and battery) impact is negligible, especially on modern laptops.
You will only notice a difference if you run a thorough benchmark test, not in day-to-day use.

How well does H.264 decoding scale with multiple threads? Imagine I had a single-core 2GHz processor and a dual-core 1GHz processor (both with the same IPC), which would play H.264 faster? Or would they be equal?
>>54791290
I guess your best move would be to search for a file or a directory that was in the 4GB you removed to see if it was moved somewhere else.
use something like this :
sudo find / -type f -iname "*filename*"
replace f by d if you're looking for a directory, and you can just put a part of the filename if you keep the stars (regular expression).
is it possible (or wise) to change the filesystem of an external hard drive by creating a partition of the desired filesystem, moving everything into that partition and then deleting the original partition? obviously it could only be done if free space permits, i just don't have a second hard drive to do it with.
>>54791775

According your OS, and how you installed the library, the #include might not be the same everywhere. I used to program with the SDL library. On windows I had to do
#include <SDL2/SDL.h>
while on linux I could simply
#include <SDL.h>
that message just means you're looking for the library on the wrong directory.
Are you on linux or windows ?
I don't know, if this is a stupid question, but stackoverflow doesn't have a good answer.
I got a program from a brazilian company. It is written in c. I have the sourcecode and at the same time the files are compiled to *.exe's.

I'm buying some new hard-drives, and I realized I don't have enough sata power connectors, but, I do have a handful of molex connectors lying around. Would it be a bad idea to get some molex to sata cables? Or would a Sata Y-splitter work out better? I can easily use either, I'm just worried about which is more likely to start a fire or fuck with my system's power.

It seems the trash feature is unsupported (at least on Nemo) on Ubuntu as a superuser, but Nemo not being a native file browser created a directory /root/.local/share/Trash/ anyway and moved my deleted directory there anyway.

>qbittorrent
Thankyou, thats what I suspecting. And also im a pleb when it comes to torrenting, what is daemon? Im assuming I wont even need to use it just because I have no idea what it is but im just curious
>NotePad++
Forsure man, thanks. But isnt Notepad++ just a text editor for normal everyday programming? I ned something that generates all the possible functions and fields I can use when typing in a field (pls no bully). Also something that can pop up a web browser (or even better have a viewing window like Dreamweaver) at the press of a button when I want to see how something looks. Eclipse has that but it is absolute shit because something can look perfect in the Eclipse Viewing Window but look like absolute shit once you open it in Chrome. Notepad is based when using Java or C or anything like that but Im looking for something specifically for webdev. And also thankyou for the suggestion I do appreciate it.

Daemon is a process taht runs in the background,independent of any other process.
Deluge you can run single mode or daemon mode.I prefer qbittorrent over delude's gui client. But if you need external connections or have other people wanting to add torrents,this is would the better choice.

I feel like I'm crazy, and probably this is really easy to find and I'm just dumb/searching for the wrong keywords. I'm on Ubuntu 16.04, and I want to set up a keyboard shortcut that inserts a fixed string wherever the cursor is. The closest thing I can find is a bash script from 20 fucking 11 that lets you set the clipboard to a particular string and then ctl+v as normal. I'll DO that if I have to, but that's a sequence of hotkeys and it really seems like I should be able to do it in one. (Plus the disadvantage of erasing what was in the clipboard, although if I was clever I could make that work using one of those clipboard apps with histories.)

I want to "someday" (in the next year or two... or three) upgrade to a 1070 for gaming.
Should I go for value and upgrade later with a FX-8350? Or invest in an i5-6600k for hopeful future proofing, or enough to not bottleneck the 1070.
This is going to be for 1080p gaming at 60fps, 4k is quite a ways down the road for me I think, but I'd like to upgrade enough to be playing something like Witcher 3 or GTAV normal/high at 1080p60
I'm currently running with an r9 270, which is fine even with an fx-6300, but my Phenom II x4 crapped out so now I'm stuck with a phenom II x2 until I put down the money to upgrade both my motherboard and my CPU...
So what's the deal with different graphics card models? Like, I wanna get a 1070 when it comes out. I know I shouldn't get the founder's version Nvidia is selling, but besides price what changes between that one and the ones other companies sell?
Is there a good free source wireframe 'maker' that beats pen and paper style?

Would you guys mind looking at this build for me?
I want to play Total War Warhammer on decent settings, and use it for moderately intensive college work. Should I spend more on a better GPU? I feel sketch about having such a cheap mobo but I don't plan on overclocking and don't see the point in spending more for mobo features I don't plan on using.
Any thoughts?
I'm thinking of buying a 950. What price could be considered a 'good deal'?
Also, pairing it with a i3 6100, will I have the so claimed bottleneck?
I'd play at 1080 max for 2-3 years.

Is there an easy way that will actually work 1st time other than buying this shit? I must be doing something wrong because for it to be this difficult, microsoft either knows what they're doing or they're retarded and so am I. I've tried all the disk writers and even the media creation kit.

Question about privacy and tracking: when opening a private tab in either ff or chrome nothing´s supposed to remain on your browser, but are your cookies, cache and other data still visible to the websites you visit?

Someone explain a sync technology, from my understanding it makes magic to avoid screen tearing when your monitor doesn't react fast enough to your pc delaying a frame and causing the display to "tear". Does that mean if I buy a 144Hz monitor I won't face this issue? Assuming my pc can't go higher than 144fps.
Also, for an i5 6600k/16gb ram/1070 build, would you rather have a 1440p 60Hz monitor or a 1080p 144Hz monitor? Without G-sync or freesync.

144Hz 1080p. If you want high res don't get a 1070, get something with higher memory bandwidth.
>>54793605
Atom
>>54795439
I was leaning more on tha 1080p 144Hz too because
1. "Future proofing" - sounds dumb, but future games will obviously more demanding, so if the 1070 just scrapes by on 1440p I doubt in the next couple of years I'll be playing on 1440p without sacrificing some settings in game.
2. I work with a 144Hz monitor in my office and fuck damn if I don't notice the difference with my 60Hz monitor at home.
Thanks, what about a sync tech though?
What's a good:
-cheap IPS monitor?
-1440p 27” IPS monitor?

What kind of modem? A cable modem costs $20-$100 new. You can get a few bucks for them on ebay or craigslist if they're at least DOCSIS 3.0. Check that your "abandoned" modem isn't property of the cable company. Most are, because most people don't take the initiative to buy one instead of renting. And that's why people are fat.

Do they both go into the PS?
I heard of something about plugging the wrong stuff into the Graphics and frying it all
>>54795889
Yes they both plug into the PSU
>>54795889
a 6 pin PCI-E connector and a 6+2 pin PCI-E connector
don't plug the CPU connector in it, that's the only other one that's similar
the pins don't fit the shape anyway
>>54795889
They look like this (pic)
one end goes into your power supply, the other in your graphics card. Modern ones come in 6 pins, 6 pins + 2 detachable pins (see pic) or 8 pins. It's okay to leave the 2 detachable pins unconnected and only use the 6.
>>54795918
>>54795919
Got 2 sets of PCI-E right here
So I plug the side that says PCI-E into the Graphics, one using 6 pins and the other in the 8 Pins with the additional 2 on the right side of it?
>>54795947
6+2 and 6 goes to the GPU
>>54795947
Correct
>>54795964
>>54795977
And whats the deal with this here?
Is it meant to be plugged into the Power with just one set of cables? Or is this just an extension?
>>54795997
It's the same, it's just powered in series.
All the strain is on it's own rail, so if your PSU came with that cable, it should be fine.
>>54796017
So I can use the one cable for both slots in the GPU?
These did come with the PSU

First, what your describing is a class, not an object. An object is is an instance of a class.
Second, I would have to see the source code to really understand what you're talking about, but if its a variable declared inside of a class' constructor then it will go out of scope and be deleted after the object is created.
If you show me the code I can help you understand what's going on.

Probably not if it's going to be a hassle. It's a luxury that you probably won't even notice.
I'm literally retarded and tried to build my own PC. It ran fine for about 9 months, then at around Christmas last year it stopped booting up.
When it goes into sleep mode, it just does not wake back up and the only way to get it to turn on again is to turn it off and wait for 6+ hours, and even that's a dicey prospect. When it does finally boot up, it will do one of two things
-Power up, then immediately lose power.
-The BIOS will show up like it's the first time I've ever turned it on, then go to a system restore screen. If I choose to resume the system restore, it will shit itself and I have to wait another 6+ hours to try again
When I turn it on, it powers up as usual, all the fans start spinning (GPU, PSU, CPU heatsink and case fan). It doesn't beep - but as mentioned before, I'm literally retarded and never figured out how to connect the microphone thing on the motherboard. Everything that should light up does (including HDMI cable), however the monitor does not turn on, nor do any of the lights on the keyboard.
I've tried
-Removing the little watch battery on the motherboard and waiting for an hour before rebooting
-Taking it apart and putting it back together
-Dusting out the interior
-Removing various components and re-inserting them
-Moving the RAM from slots 3 and 4 to 1 and 2.
-Changing the monitor
-Changing the HDMI cable
-Changing the HDMI cable to a DVI cable
-Consulting generic tech forums
I'm aware this is really not the sort of question that is received well here, but I'm lost, scared and alone. I'd even appreciate it if someone could point me in a guide to troubleshooting best practices, especially if I don't have special tools to check if individual components are working.
>>54797197
You didn't even bother to change the mother board?
Are you sure you put the 4-pin or 6-pin connector AND the 24-pin connector in the mother board?
>>54797197
This sounds like a BIOS problem. You should attempt a bios update using a USB drive directly from the BIOS. Once that's done, make sure if it has a "quiet mode" to turn that off and put it on the maximum setting allowed. If that doesn't work, I'd maybe try for warranty on the motherboard if you still have one.

What steps do I need to take before I install the new components to ensure I keep my Windows etc.?
