>>55202507
I want to have a small dedicated device for torrenting, and to be able to network the movies and music to my laptop, desktop PC, and to my TV with a roku or smart bluray player.
What is the best way to do this well without spending a fortune?
Also is there like a linux distro that would be great for this?
I cant imagine windows would be a good option for it.

I wouldn´t even know how to describe what is happening here it´s as if the compiler just ignores some parts of my code and the debugger plain jumps over it.
And i don´t get why or what is happening to it restarting my pc fixed "width"
but "item.Size.Height" still doesn´t work leading to the height be 120.
The code works perfectly fine on another computer so i doubt it´s the reason for this.
I guess that´s what i deserve for using microshit products.

I'm starting my first build, definitely a gaming build. The only part I have right now is the case, a CM Storm Trooper.
My funds aren't titanic and I don't have a whole lot of time, so I'd like to minimize necessary expenses. Would it be better to try and find a "cheap" (at or near Founder's price) 1070? Or go for a 980 Ti and upgrade later?
What do you guys use to force log into a Windows 8.1 laptop that you forgot the password to? Just recently re-imaged it a few months ago, it was originally an Windows 8, then did all the slow painful updates/troubleshooting to get 8.1 to install. But forgot the password and didn't make any recovery password disks. I can't access the command prompt from doing the Shift+Restart trick without logging in to a User account first. But I can't log into that user account until I've changed the password with an Administrator so I'm sol.
Any non-shady/non-malware methods to force it open and do a quick password change? Or am I looking at reinstalling 8.0?
Is there any point in jail breaking an Apple TV 2? I know these things used to be godly to jailbreak and use as media devices, but is it still worth it?
What can I do?
>>55203852

If you can afford a 1070, you should probably wait at least one more month to see if the new cards that are coming out are any good. Supposedly AMD's new card will be able to run at 980 TI speed at 970 price, but I'm sure AMD shills are just exaggerating. Wouldn't hurt to wait at least 7 or 8 more days until the real benchmark tests are out.
Is there a way to torrent on university internet without being detected?
>>55203889
Download to a seedbox and stream your files through plex.
>>55203870
There isn't even any point in owning one.
>>55203885
I'm wanting a 1070 because I could afford a 1080 but it seems like a needless amount of power for now. And I really just do not want an AMD card.
A 980 Ti would obviously be sufficient for anything I can do right now, but 1070 would last me for a long time. It's really just between the two and the prices on the 1070 right now are hardcore jewry.

How can I change this line:var shader = gl.createShader(gl.VERTEX_SHADER);
so that VERTEX_SHADER isn't hardcoded in and it instead uses shaderType, which is a variable found using shaderScript.type ?
The problem I think is that since the type is a string, gl.shaderType is the same as saying gl."VERTEX_SHADER" which doesn't make sense.
This is Javascript by the way.

for me it's all or nothing, a gtx 1070 is definitely preferable to a 980 ti, if you want to minimize your expenses you should still get the gtx 1070 and maybe skimp a bit on the cpu and other things, the graphics card is the most important for gaming

Basically I have a desktop I use for games, movies, shit like that, and I'd like to keep it plugged into the TV.
I have a seprate desk and computer for serious matters (and 4chan).
But this thing overscans like nobody's business. I can't watch a foreign movie because the subtitles will be off the screen, and I can't play a game because there is no hud!
All the tutorials say the same shit "turn overscan off" "set your tv to dot-by-dit/fit to size/1:1 or equivanet" but my television has none of these options.
I don't suppose there is another way? My tv is some bargain bin chink shit so that's probably why.

Hi /g/, this somewhat falls under advice but I no longer have irl friends anymore to ask, and my question is somewhat tech related.
I just opened an amazon account last night and bought 240 worth of components. This morning I wake up to discover this email message, I actually am locked out of my amazon account, I've tried changing my password twice and it keeps getting rejected.
My question - if my information gets confirmed with them, would the order automatically go through? I have been waiting to build my PC for months and at this point am just considering going to best buy to buy components in person.
I don't want to drop 200 bucks, only for the order to go through on its own later on and get charged twice over.
Secondly, if I reply to this address asking them to shut it down, do you think they would just close my account? I can't actually access amazon's own account services, because I'm unable to log in.
Please respond, I have no one else

After reading a lot about them I picked Lubuntu for my lightweight needs.
But you can just try them both and see what works better for you.
I didn't read all the specs on your computer, but it says it is good for Windows 8 so it should be more then capable of either one. It also means you should be able to run either 32 or 64 bit OS, I like 64 as it has many upsides and few downsides, but don't know how you plan to use it.

NTFS is one of the most feature-ful, most mature, fastest file system currently available. Not even kidding, just check the Wikipedia article for the FS comparison.
>>55207711
1. No?
2. Depends. You can just mount your NTFS shit, so have 20gb for "/" and I don't know, 4gb for swap. With gparted you can easily resize.
3. What.
Ubuntu/Linux can read/write NTFS, but they are not very OK with using that as root filesystem. Just use what the install offers, which is usually ext4.
You can also use ext3, then you can read and write it from Windows, but I doubt that will be necessary if you store your shit on the 7 partition for example.

and enter this into the file:Section "InputClass"
Identifier "My Mouse"
Driver "libinput"
MatchIsPointer "yes"
Option "AccelProfile" "flat"
EndSection
How can I achieve this when running GNOME on Wayland?
I'm running Mint, how do I get the screen to stop going dark whenever I watch Youtube videos? I have to keep moving my mouse every couple of seconds or it thinks I'm not doing anything.

No. You would drop out and would not get a job, ever.
>>55208943
It depends on many things.
The application - depending on how it's written.
The OS. Windows DEP, ASLR. And so on.
I also think the application is written like "malloc sizeof int * $items" or something like that, you get the idea.
>>55208954
No downside, but make sure the device can benefit. USB2 is plenty fast, and if you buy like a pendrive, shit will never go THAT fast.

>>55209021
Ok, let me spoonfeed.
1) You need a BSc.
You have to work hard for that. You have to be good at math.
2) It's easy to get a job.
But it's not a fun job. It's good paying, but you will sit on your ass for 10-12 hours doing useless shit. It's very tiring, you will also very likely to drink plenty of booze a month.
And if you ask like this, I don't think you have what it takes. I struggled years to get my BSc, and it cost me a LOT. So again, if you don't have dedication, cannot study, etc, it's not going to work.
> inb4 get work if you home study
NO. maybe if you get fucking lucky and write some new application that sells like candy, maybe then you may succeed.
>>55209006
Social engineering?
It might work, kid.
>>55209036
It very depends on what you want.
Even the filesystem depends on what you want to do, how big they are, whats the hardware beneath, etc.
For personal use, I would just fucking RAID0 all the SSDs. It's impossible to burn out so many, even two of them.

If you got warranty, don't take it apart, try checking the gap. There is a gap between the panel + frame I am sure that's where they get in.
If you have no warranty, take it apart, add a simple thin insulation between frame + panel (that does not put pressure on panel), and put it back together.
A glass or plexi glass may also work, like put a thin one on front, and call it a day.
Hope that helps.
>>55209099

that's why i asked here.
thank you very much.
>>55209126
As I said there must be a gap, just check.
And if you install a glass / plexi on front, they won't be able to get in.
Trust me it's the light/heat, not the dry part.
Hey /g/ang
Been using Mint for about a year. Looking to try a new distro.
Very beginner here. Been using the few months to learn linux and Java programming.
What would be a good next stop for distro?
>>55209156
gentoo
>>55209148
No seriously they're on top of the screen and wiggle their way down a lower layer where can I can't touch them.

Time wise and stuff to study shoudln't be a problem I have enough money to study a 4 year degree without having to work in between and focus on it 100%.
I already sit over 15 hours a day at my computer doing mindless tasks and useless stuff.
I guess the only problem could be math, I consider myself just barely above average.
Thanks for the spoonfeeding, searches so far seem pretty contradictory and outdated.
>>55209156
Pfah, Java is literally installing JDK and unzipping Netbeans (lol dad beans) or Eclipse.
So literally any distro.
Gentoo is ... I don't know.
It's easy to set up, just read the quick manual.
I would have two distros, one Ubuntu/Mint, and then one playground. You can use Dropbox to sync your projects anyway. And try to use the playground for work / learn - if you fuck up, you have a safe place.
I would install Debian on it for example, and upgrade to Sid, let the fun begin.
>>55209185
Well get them out first, then seal up.
>>55209213
Answer coming...
>>55209082
>It very depends on what you want.
Software, encrypting, encoding, rendering, games, multi media in general. I suppose I do have some need for mass archival of photos and scans though.
>>55209156
There's really no reason to switch distro unless you have a specific issue with Mint. More minimalist distros like Arch or Gentoo, despite what their adherents profess, don't reach you anything more about Linux.
If you're interested in learning more about Linux, I would recommend learning some C and picking up The Linux Programming Interface.
>>55209213
> Time wise and stuff to study shouldn't be a problem
> only problem could be math, I consider myself just barely above average.
That's not really enough.
But then again, IF you can study, it will work. IF, and that is a huuuge IF.
There is calculus, algebra, and so much more. Programming is actually like a small part of it.
Like basically what I did is got the very basics at class (like how do you loop in C), then learn the rest from examples by prof and online.
Like it's a "forced learning" kind of thing? Because you have to practice for exam and do assignments.
Which you could do by your own, but most of us are just lazy.
con't...
What's the best noscript extension for Chrome?
SP or AF case fans for rear exhaust?
SP or AF case fans for front intake with dust filers and HDD cage?
>>55209213
For me, the biggest problem was to sit down, and take the time to actually force myself to understand the task.
Because I guess you are just like us, me, and plenty of people on the planet.
We got used to having "instant things". If I want music? I type a few letters, get Spotify.
Did I get a new mail? I just check it.
I am sure there is a name for this, like how games give the brain that sense of achievement, which is otherwise really hard to earn in real life.
Back to math.
To sit on my ass above a piece of paper with no explanation, no teacher at all, and to somehow decipher the problem... that's very hard.
There are plenty of materials online, but I shit you not, I spent a terrifying amount looking at materials, trying to use them, even doing Khan Academy... but nothing. Only practicing the course material and the prof notes helped. But fuck it was hard.
So if you know you can learn, it's gonna be fine.
>>55209317
I need the most of the hot air to be removed from the case as much as possible.
>>55209273
For archival, I would put the hard drives into a NAS (HP microserver? build your own?) and use FreeNAS.
It's got turnkey RAID + ZFS + encryption + sharing built in.
I always had problems with RAID+GRUB. It's a pain in the fucking ass.
The SSD? I would put them in the PC and again, I would RAID0 them, lol.
Just back up to the NAS or to Crashplan.
>>55209276
It's kinda right, kinda not.
Like how do you even learn Linux?
Spending years with desktop use I learnt how to config things up.
How to compile the kernel. How to build software.
Learnt pbuilder, package making, build servers, build bots.
I learnt how to roll back upgrades, how to snapshot, different filesystems.
But.
When I got my own server, I had to learn how to have a LAMP stack.
How to get php caching, phpmyadmin, analytics.
And the hardest, email sending/receving.
These are easy to install, but hard to get them right (like protecting them, make them work right, etc.)
>>55209313
umatrix
>>55209317
you can generally take sp fans for everything but if your rear exhaust is completely unblocked, go for af there.
>>55209276
And then there is the programming part.

So yeah. All kind of parts are all different.

call me stupid but the best cases are the ones with one or two big ass fans.
big as in 220-300mm wide, huge ass fans.
they spin real fucking slow, barely have any noise, and move shitload of air.
Or you can just add market coolers to cpu/gpu/etc and let them fight in some cool brand case.
retard here. I want to write a script that renames all images in a given directory and all subdirectories to their hash (md5?) for the purpose of removing duplicates and preventing addition of future duplicates.

Is there any reason for a computer to shut itself down?
It didn't just suddenly power down but it went through the usual process of shutting down with windows telling you as such. Except I didn't turn it off manually. This wasn't scheduled or anything.
My computer doesn't feel exceptionally and I haven't done anything during that time to make the computer tax itself like playing a game. I was just browsing the net.
This is the first time this has ever happened with my computer.

>>55209464

>>55209468

They serve different purpose.
uBlock blocks ads.

They both are needed.
>>55209464
Either the PSU, or the CPU.
What CPU do you have?
What PSU do you have?
PSU can be checked if the power gets drawn. Like Furmark pushes GPU to draw more.
Then do a bit more intensive CPU work. If the computer is OK, it's not the PSU.
But play around like this.
If CPU is too hot, just run Prime95 on max heat for an hour.
>>55209467
As I said, if you feel up to the task, it's not a bad job.
For me, the worst part is when you just sit there and you feel like a fucking wet sock by the end of the day.
I have my own company atm, and I do get tired, like I just hit the bed and I am physically tired, but I feel something achieved, it feels nice.
At IT I was like "what the fuck kill me" and I just wanted to drink and sleep.
But we are all different.
Contemplating the idea of buying a used amd apu +mobo+ ram (max 100eurodollars) to upgrade my 2004 machine and then buy a Rx 4something to do light gaming, ps2 emulation and hoard data
Do you think it's a good idea?
I also want to buy in the future a good psu a soundproof case and a big ass cpu heatsink waiting for intel series iRelevant and zen to come out
At the moment I'm using a sandy vagina laptop, it's very good for pretty much everything but heavy load make it glow red hot
>>55209510
No. APU is pure shit.
An i3 beats it to hell, and for emulation, every day use, it's much much better.
GPU wise, get a used one. If you are poor, that's your best bet.
You can net very good cards for piss cheap.
Ram... its' cheap. Get new ram. But used is good too.
Mobo, get the cheapest.
> Good PSU
You know the good brands. Seasonic, Corsair, and so on.
> Big ass CPU heatsink
Just get an EVO212 or what the new one called, they are cheap, silent, give you good cooling.
Make sure the cooler fits in the case, because I built a PC for some kid and his cheapo case was not tall enough.
> waiting for intel series iRelevant and zen to come out
Zen is nothing but a name and Pajeet viral marketing so far.
Just put away your money, and buy what you can afford.
My Win7 PC keeps randomly freezing every few hours.
The cursor slows down and lags for a second, followed by the loading circle where the entire PC completely freezes. Mouse doesn't move, stuck on the loading circle (no animation), clock doesn't update, can't ctrl alt delete, etc. Complete freeze, I have to hold the power button in a for a few seconds and hard shut down.
There are no errors in the event viewer that stand out. Anyone have any ideas on how to start trouble shooting this?

>>55209371
what would block a rear exhaust fan?
>>55209549
Sounds like a PSU problem.
Especially the slow or freeze.
Also check the HDD/SSD with SMART tools like hdd guardian (or whatever the free one is called.)
The loading icon freeze/full freeze can also happen when the system drive stops responding.
Whatever is in memory works, but as soon as you touch something from drive, Windows will freeze.
This happened many times with my SATA bay.
Buuut, it will never totally freeze, like you can still move the cursor.. it won't get choppy, etc.

What's the difference between a cheap and an expensive motherboard aside from the video and RAM slots?
Recently got off my ass and over locked my 6700k. Problem is that I seem to have really really lost the lottery with mine because I couldn't even get it to stay stable 4.4ghz at 1.3v. I eventually got it to 4.5 but with 1.35v.
Was I really just unlucky or could I be doing something else wrong here? If so then should I just settle with this OC? I know the true limit is 1.45v but I don't feel terribly comfortable with going any higher than 1.35v due to temperatures.

The best metric for quality is usually brand, a budget model of a reliable brand like Gigabyte or Asus will be fine. Other features just depend on what you need in terms of expandability.
