Is it enough to bind ports from my server to enable i2p on my machine in order to use Anonymous Mode in qbittorrent, or do the trackers have to be proxies as well, meaning no clearnet torrents will work?
I copied a code example form google's machine learning intro video set. I tried to get the libraries with apt-get but dot parser doesnt exist apparently and every internet solution has not helped.
$ python2 iris.py

Couldn't import dot_parser, loading of dot files will not be possible.

In the market for a new, thin laptop, ultrabook, 2-in-1, whatever for college.
Mostly for taking notes and casual use, got a beast of a rig at home so don't care too much about graphical performance.
Kind of interested in a Microsoft Surface Pro 4 but there've been some reports they're coming out with a Surface Pro 5 with a $999 model that comes with an i7.
Anyone got any laptops they'd recommend?
>>54806219
Yes, but I read somewhere that I can use speeds higher than 2300 or whatever the highest speed Intel says the CPU can read. Should I worry about my computer not working if I try to use 3200 DDR4? Will that work?
According to fast.com I get ~65mbps internet speed on ethernet and ~45mbps internet speed on wifi.
Is such a big difference normal?
>>54806246
I would recommend spending more than $200 on a note taking/facebook machine. Search ebay for a used thinkpad.
>>54806271
If you have 3200mhz ram, then it will work with that ram giving its 2300mhz(or whatever are the limitations on cpu/mobo). Dont worry.
>>54806246
I'd look into some ARM based ultrabook/tablet then.
I want to make a little emulation box to sit next to my TV. Ideally I'd love to be able to play DS games from my couch, but generally I want to be able to play games up to the PSOne era. What do?
>>54806386
What exactly is your question?
Alright, so I'm trying to salvage 2 LG photo screens, like the kind put up in stores used for advertisement. I plan on hooking them up to use as monitors or just to display info.
I have several questions: What kind of cable is this, and what kind of adapter does it need? It comes straight out of the screen's motherboard, and I can provide more info and pictures if needed.
>>54806398
Where should I start when it comes to purchasing or building? Can I get away with a laptop, or should I look into building a box myself?
>>54806246
Acer C910. 15" chromebook with Intel i5. I wouldn't pay more than $250 for it. That's what I'd buy if I needed a mobile system.
>>54806467
Laptops are shit and overpriced. Buy a NUC if you want something fancy, or buy an old Dell Optiplex/HP Prodesk for super cheap on eBay.
>>54806471
Are Chromebooks actually good? They always seemed kinda wonky to me.
>>54806537
For a laptop, and for the price point? Yeah they're good. Super fast boot up, long battery life, no worries about viruses, does everything you need to do when you're mobile.
Worst case scenario if you hate it and no one will buy it from you, you're only out $250. A decent traditional laptop is at least 2.5x that.
Looking to upgrade my mobo to a H97/Z97, I am from the UK.
I've found a Gigabyte Z97-D3H for £57 - is this board any good?
Any suggestions for other cheap mobos?
Guy who soaked his HDD and SDD in his washing machine during a bad trip here, any data recovery team would be able to salvage some of not all the data right? I'd like to add that the HDD fell about at most eight inches and was in the water for over two hours but no more than eight, nine

>>54806467
I don't see why it would be any different from just building a PC but with cheap parts.
Are the cheapass 2560x1440 A- korean monitors still worth it? And if so, does anybody know if this particular brand can overclock to ~120hz, and if an extra $20 is worth it for a matte instead of glossy screen?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Perfect-Pixel-QNIX-QX2710-LED-27-WQHD-2560x1440-Samsung-PLS-PC-Monitor-Glossy-/140934439651?hash=item20d058e2e3:g:Ax8AAOSwEetV91r0
Thanks for the help lads
>>54806620
SSD is probably completely find once you give it a thorough cleaning/drying.
HDD, I would guess a data recovery company would be able to salvage it, but that's probably $800...
>>54806643
please explain how you 'over clock' a fucking monitor?
It is either capable of a certain frequency or it isn't.
How the fuck do you turn off the focus rectangle on 8.1?
I have no idea how I even turned it on.
>>54806643
They've always been worth it. I wouldn't count on overclock, and matte vs glossy is purely subjective. If you're going to be picky about it, you might try to find someone who has already tested them and wants to sell.
>>54806648
fine*
>>54806668
Read the guide here

i am retarded and updated to windows 10.
so far its full with stranges menus made on flash or wathever, its irritating to wait so much just to open a document.
any good guide/tutorial of all the things i dont really need so i can delete them?
also, any good/video music reproductor?
>>54806668
I dont know how to either, but you can raise its refresh rate. Not sure how long the monitor lives after that.
>>54806676
Search "performance Options" and uncheck "show translucent selection rectangle"
>>54806720
Yeah, no dice.
Why can't they make a vanilla phone with a big ass battery decent camera/screen and expandable memory

>>54806693
The monitor supports only a set of certain frequency within a safe operation. Others aren't listed because it can damage the monitor and make it unusable. Basically bricking it. Certainly not like oc'n a cpu/gpu/ram
What's the best resource to learn C# in my case ?
I have experience in Python but it's only pure scientific knowledge (I've designed mathematical and physical models for college, that's all), and all C# books I've come across seem to be either intended for experienced programmers or total shit.

Windows 10 is fine. /g/ is shilling and being retarded.
Install classic shell, turn off the telemetry, use spy bot anti beacon and some others and tweak the aesthetics and your gold.
I have 3 boxes running 10 now. No fucking "bot net"
>>54806781
No, I genuinely love 8.1, had it since I upgraded from 8.
Never had a problem until now.

Well can you upload a picture of what in the fuck you mean.
I'm trying to help you, flying fucking blind with my cock taped to my left leg.

Can anyone help me with this?
>>54806775
I know there's a bit of a risk involved with getting a good one, but saving $200 and still getting a near identical monitor (for what I'd be doing with it) seems like a pretty good deal
>>54806799
It's still a form of overclocking, just slightly different from how most components overclock now. Some monitors are capable of handling high refresh rates like 120hz without a significant loss in image quality, and seem to work just fine without killing it over time, since tons of people still run the monitors at 120hz years after they've purchased it
If we're referring Linux as GNU/Linux why dont we do
Windows/NT
BSD/Linux
Android/Linux
OSX/Linux
>>54806868
Install classic shell, and you can tweak the UI shit. They are using the flat design because its not cpu/gpu intensive, and it can get uniformity across all apps and vendors.
It doesnt rely on AERO anymore, which was a process hog.
If its that bad install a skin/theme/etc
I don't mind it
>>54806867
How can I calculate the wattage of my cpu given I have the live voltage? I know it's amp*v but I don't know the operational amperage of the cpu.
Alternatively, can anyone link me to something like a Kill-A-Watt meter for 220V on amazon? Everything I find is for 110V and the only one I found for 220V costs $90. Most kill-a-watts that do the job are like $20-50. I'd love to get accurate readings of what wattage idle devices and such are consuming, or even my pc under load.
>>54806934
This shifts my opinion a bit. But is there way to make start menu completely non metro cancer?
>>54806937
Try hitting tab.
>>54806855
>/g/ is shilling
Shilling for what? Tell me about this theory you have where people have some monetary incentive to speak out against Windows.
Only one shilling here is you.

Are ITX builds a meme? I'm thinking about doing a build in the Define Nano S, but I don't have any size constraints or need for a compact build.
>>54807010
>I don't have any size constraints or need for a compact build
Then why do it?
>>54806985
Nope.
Just gonna do a restart to see if that does it.
>>54807025
If I have limited desk space, would ITX be good for me?
>>54807010
>Are ITX builds a meme?
No, M/mITX are.
Does the computer use the graphics card's gigs when playing games, or its own? Debating on a computer with 8 gigs of ram, and another with 12.
Both got the same graphics cards.

GPU memory and RAM are two different things m8.
Let's say I want to build a high level custom surround sound profile for my computer, can I repurpose the ports on my sound so that I have eight channels?
This board seems really dedicated to free software and remaining anonymous on the internet, but with all of this effort put in; wouldn't your ISP see all of your activity anyways?
Well the restart fixed it.
It's amazing that in 2016 MS still can't into restartless-system changes.
Has there been a release date for the new Intel processors yet? the 6800-6950k? I can't seem to find much information on them at all

thank you my friends
i lost my last 4chan x settings and i cant seem to remember what does what.
can anyone tell me what the settings are for when someone replies to something they are automatically put under the person they replied to.
and the settings that whenever you click on a cross post it open up to that thread and just doesn't show you the post?
is this because the font is shit, or bad font rendering/something else I don't understand?
>>54807139
>dedicated to free software
Just the vocal minority of 40 year olds who have nothing to do in their senile age. Most people understand that software is not a nuclear weapon out to kill them and inflct living harm, and just serves you to do things you want to do.
They blindly follow an aspie "leader" who has no claim to fame since the 1990's, who just wants to piggy back off someone who even now, 20 years later, contributes to a large community.
>>54807284
it's because wysiwyg is shit
>>54807284
Yes, and also windows lack of a sane fontconfig

Not sure about the second.
Doesn't seem that big a deal though.

A AND B answer
The font is just made badly. Try the stock fonts just to check for other issues.
I'm sick of Windows 10 and how broken it is for me. Which is the version of Windows 7 I hear people recommend and which updates am I avoiding ?
Thanks

>>54807139
There are many different viewpoints that could fit in your description.
For me, the thing that's good about 'anonymity' on 4chan isn't that I'm truly anonymous, it's that it makes it easier to post (no logins) and you are generally anonymous to the other users of the board.
Free software has nothing to do with anonymity, in fact if you make and share free software you have raised your profile.
I like free software first because it's free, but secondarily because it's easier to audit and fix problems, and because it's a community effort.

I exported it as pdf and the font looks fine. Something is off with my LibreOffice Writer.

I need a new GPU (Using a 7950 atm) and I'm thinking about the upcoming 1080s, but I'm wondering if the 980s will see a large price drop because of 'em? I'm also worried about getting a brand new card that could have issues.
Second question: What CPU should I go for? I currently have an i5 4570 but I'd like something faster for rendering/editing video, recording games and game emulation.
Any advice?
>>54807941
How'd you make this? What's it called?
>>54807943
I've been running a headless config myself with no CPU and 3 GPUs to handle the load, it's surprisingly smooth

>>54808049
Any specific make(s) or brand(s) you guys would recommend for an i7 and 980 or 1080? My current i5 is a Haswell. I just wanna know what's worth paying for and what works well together.

>upgrades from Haswell i5 to an i7
You're an idiot.
>>54808103
Thanks for the contribution.
I was having issues with my Intel drivers crashing often on my laptop (Running Windows 10 Pro), but my PC blue screened after trying to update a driver through device manager. The blue scrren shows a 100% complete message after about half a minute, along with pnp_detected_fatal_error, but it just stays on the blue screen afterwards. The same thing happens when I try to restart. Booting into my Fedora partition works just fine, but I would like to be able to access my files on Windows again. When I try to boot into safe mode, it asks for my bitlocker key, but I have been unable to find it on any of my flash drives. Is my only option at this point to reinstall Windows, or is there anything else that might work? Nothing that I've found online so far has helped.
My BIOS only shows this for boot options, but I've only ever had windows 10 on the computer. Can this be a problem? I just selected win8 and it boots fine.
>>54808090
I have a 980 ti and a 4790k, everything runs flawlessly in 1440p.

I want into servers, basicly setting up and running remote server. Should I get something like rasp pi and experiment or just buy cheap vps?
>>54808214
No, although you might be due for a BIOS upgrade.

1: Legacy Boot
2: UEFI / Secure Boot
the latter is used by all Windows OS since Windows 8.

>>54808637
I don't know, but my employer's rules don't allow feature phones to access email because they can't run anti-malware.
>>54808637
Depends on the company, I know many will supply you a smartphone and will not allow you to use your personal one for work due to security concerns. Though in these cases you can often request what kind of device you want and they may or may not grant it.
Otherwise I don't think you will NEED a smartphone to get hired, a cellphone is probably a must. Even if you do once you have a job it shouldn't be hard to get one right? It's not like the HR guy is going to make you whip it out to make sure you're properly equipped before hiring you.

>>54808817
It's not harmful but it shouldn't be necessary to lower the temperature. What's your current idle/load temperatures, though? If your computer is a few months or even years old and your temperatures are abnormally high, it might be due to accumulated dust so cleaning the fans and heat sinks should help.

FITYMI.

I'm that kind of guy that still use a 1280x1024 monitor because it works perfectly and I find the colours and brightness great compared most HD monitor.

Wouldn't turn on at all, and it had an SSD. Took it apart and reseated the battery, but aparrently there was a known motherboard issue that'd make it shut off. Had bestbuy warranty, geeksquad said bc it was an SSD, if the machine couldn't turn on, they couldn't get the data off of it. They're offering to replace it, but honestly I don't want to deal with one of those laptops again i'm just pissed off about it

1440p will be forgotten about soon since it isn't as marketable as 4k
4k is like 4 1080p screens in one, it's good if you want a lot of screen space or if you sit close to your monitor
i don't know how old your PC is, but buying a 4k monitor could mean buying a new gpu, a 4k screen has about 6.3 times the amount of pixels your current monitor does
it's probably not worth it

>>54809689
Sometimes you don't have a generic version of your class that all the other ones will inherit from, nor do you necessarily want one. You might have a group of related classes that all share some similar properties and can be interacted with in similar ways, in those cases you can implement an interface in those classes to mark them as being part of that group of things.
Yeah, you can do the same thing if you have a generic base class and have subclasses of it which inherit, but this doesn't always make a lot of sense and you might not want to encourage other users who might implement your class to do so down the line.

You cannot change a user account by just changing the name. Just changing the name will make a cosmetic change only and not affect the underlying files/folders in the profile.
1. From an account with administrative privileges, go to Control Panel>User Accounts and create the new Standard user account named the way you want and at least one extra Administrator account. Call the latter "CompAdmin" or "Tech" or the like.
2. Log into the new Standard user account once so the profile files/folders are created and then log into CompAdmin.
3. Now go to Control Panel>System>Advanced>User Profiles>Settings
4. You will see where you can copy user accounts. Copy the old account to the new one from there. Use the Browse to select your new account (C:\Users\newaccount).
5. Log into the new correctly named account and make sure all your stuff is there and that it works the way you want. When you are satisfied, you can log out and into CompAdmin and delete the old user account from Control Panel>User Accounts.
If you wish to log into your new, corrected account automatically, do this:
Start Orb>Search box>type: netplwiz [enter]
Click on Continue (or supply an administrator's password) when prompted by UAC
Uncheck the option "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to automatically log on by clicking on the desired account to highlight it and then hit OK. Enter the correct password for that user account (if there is one) when prompted. Leave it blank if there is no password (null).

Why you wanna change your user folder name?
>>54810969
I bought a new laptop, and I was transferring archives and data from the old one to the new one. In my old laptop, my folder name was C:\Users\MyName, and in the new one it is C:\My Name. This is making some things to not work properly, for example my playlists in foobar2000, because they're trying to use the old laptop's path. I don't want to configure everything again (that's why I was copying even the smallest configurations from the old one), so I was looking for a way to just change the folder name, since it's the "easiest" way to deal with my problem.
>>54810830
Get the original file from install media and replace it on your HDD from liveUSB.
>>54811030

Here's an extremely stupid question from a total programming n00b who is still learning...
Here is a basic program that counts down to zero. I think I'm misunderstanding what a static variable is... why does the count stop at zero? Why doesn't it continue into negative integers?#include <iostream>
static int count = 10;
main()
{
while(count--)
{
std::cout << "count is " << count << std::endl;
}
return 0;
}
>>54806212
Meant kinguin; my phone auto-corrected it.
>>54811528
It's not a static issue, it's that 0 evaluates to "false" in C++. Anything else is considered "true" and so the loop counts down until it reaches "false"
>>54811659
Ooooooooh. I should have figured that out. God damn it. Thank you, kind anon!
>>54811528
A while loop stops when the condition inside its parenthesis becomes false. Since 0 evaluates to false, it stops as soon as count becomes 0. Also notice that in this case, count will only decrement AFTER the condition resolves. If you'd want to decrement count and then test its value, you'd have to write --count.
Anyway, what did you expect static to do here?
>>54811611
Currently using one right now, so far so good.
>>54811697
I was being silly and not taking into consideration that count == 0 would generate a false condition and terminate the loop. Anyway, it was part of an exercise from some tutorial I was doing about variable types, and I got caught up with what the while-loop was doing and overthought it.

So I've been using a HTC Sensation (Pyramid) for a good three and a half years now. I kind of extended the lifespan of this brick by becoming a CM user (and, for the record, sense was cancer). This got me past a lot of OS version requirements for apps.
I tried to to this again last year, bodgeing a technically unsupported lollipop Rom onto the thing. No dice, rickety as all hell once flashed.
So anyway, I've eventually reached a brick wall where the camera quality of this thing, and the 200mb plan attached to it, just isn't gonna fly anymore.
I'm picking up a 1.5g standalone plan and I figure, considering my track record, it'd be worth buying something outright.
