/sqt/ - Stupid Question Thread

check your system monitor and get rid of bloat. odds are that chrome or some shit is using up a ton of CPU.

Better, install a light linux distro.

if you like it enough it's worth it.
if you don't, don't bother. too much work.

>accountless
not really
use tox if you want to talk to someone specific, but you have to exchange info with them somehow.

uninstall the one, install the other.
sticky keys, maybe?

Do fast food employees care if you get a water cup and then fill it with soda?

My mom does this every time we go out somewhere with a soda cup and I feel like it's only a matter of time before we are confronted for it. I, being on the straight and narrow, only fill my water cup with water.

it would be penny pinching at best for them. I don't think so.

That's soda piracy, illegal.

I want Foobar to open a playlist in the playlist viewer when I click it once and start playing it when I double click it. Why won't that shit work?

Right now I need to double click the playlist, it opens, and I have to double click a song to start playing anything.

It's not medieval times I shouldn't have to double click twice

Google searches only show me people who don't understand how the media library works, none of it is related to the playlist stuff

What kind of impact does having a touch screen in my laptop have on battery?

If you didn't pay for soda, you can't have soda.

Not really noticable next to playing videos. I don't know how they manage power either, but it could not take any if it's not being used.

Yeah, I know you're not supposed to but will they call you out for it? She always says "oh they won't care, don't worry about it" but I feel embarrassed.

Is using my credit card in google store a good idea?

My internet has been sluggish recently and randomly cutting out, even though windows doesn't indicate the internet connection is lost.

I thought it was my ISP, but when I try accessing my router's settings when it happens, the page wont load. Should be a router thing, right?

Any ideas how to diagnose it better? Don't really wanna buy a new router.

It's called not being a thieving fuck with your trashy mom.
In nigger neighbors they got the pop machine behind counter to stop people doing what you and your mom's doing.

>what sort of side projects look good on a resume
Something that's noteworthy for a business, aka databases, especially data extraction and frontend GUI.
Unless you wrote a program in a language that's relevant to the business in question, in which case it might help

>Is using ... credit card ... good idea?
No.
Buy a prepaid at a store with the card and THEN buy shit

Try to connect to the router via phone or another PC.
I have this shit once in a while and it basically make everything connected via wifi slow down to a crawl (but not actually disconnect) while the cabled PC works wonderfully

tv and movies depicted instant messaging in a way that seemed like the recipient saw each letter being typed by the sender in real time.

from pre-AOL to now, i've never seen such a thing in the real world.

did i miss something? did an interface like this ever actually exist? if so, what was it called?

>Try to connect to the router via phone or another PC

I can't though. And when this happens there's no internet on my mobile devices as well, don't see how that would help. What's weird too is there's no indication to when it happens, windows shows I have internet, and all the router indicators work just fine.

as much as having a credit card is.
you'll get info collected on you wherever you use it. get rid of it and say " fuck credit" or just don't worry about it.
If you're doing something you don't want people to know about, of course you're not going to use it. but that's completely different.

Technical difficulties at the NSA.

i've seen it once

some site's customer service chat interface allows the service rep to see what you're typing before you press "send". not sure of the purpose though.

btw what does vagina mileage matter??

Definitely either your ISP is fucking up or your router is busted.
Reminder that if your ISP provided you the router most of the time they offer free replacements/assistance
How much has it been doing it for?

Nah I bought the router myself and it's been working for a couple of years now no issues. It happens randomly for no more than a minute at a time, just happened 10 times in a row.

youtube.com/watch?v=y3xZRy-9Rqc
mileage matters in the same sense that you don't want to drink from the same milk jug that 50 niggers drank from. how used is the car/pussy? if it's only 8 years old, but has 350k miles on it. i'm not buying that shit.

Might be getting too hot

>before this thing broke it worked perfectly
Unless you have a neighbor to ask for a router to test it there's no much more you can do

Would you buy a used mouse? I found g402 for $17.
No pictures available though. Will it be beaten and full of dorritos grease?

what's the best way to backup windows machine and & files (documents) to a nas ? system restore won't do the job i think, since the file versions are left up to date, just the system files get restored, right ? 3rd party tool like robocopy ? It's not for me, have to set it up for a friend of my boss. It has to regularly back up/copy let's say bookkeeping to the nas.

I bought my mouse used six years ago for 5 bucks
it's a moakuo gateway

Wipe it with a baby wipe or something

unless you're fucking her directly after 50 niggers cummed inside, it doesn't matter. she'll clean that shit out. the only things that matter are: diseases, child birth, and extreme fetishes like fisting.

Its finally new monitor time lads, and its gonna be a meme one. The only question is:

144hz gsync OR 1440p curved ultrawide

both are ~500$ at fry's at the moment

other monitor suggestions also welcome.

So you'd want a women that fucked 50 niggers to birth and raise your children

Does anybody know how to translate an iframe? Is there any alternative iframe option with javascript or something??

Can't you ask the guy for pics?
Either way most of them are really easy to disassemble and clean, even the insides.

in the right circumstances, sure.

It matters because it's pretty obvious that girl doesn't give a shit about stable relationship or responsibilities and will abandon you as soon as she feels like it

Use a third-party backup tool. As an example, Macrium Reflect Free works great. I use a pirated version for more features.

What you do is you tell the backup program to make a backup of the OS and whatever files you want and make it backup to the NAS. Schedule that shit, maybe use, differential imaging to cut size.

Look up features of the solution you want to use.
Important stuff is:

- ability to backup an OS while its running (via shadow copies or whatever)
- ability to create rescue media
- differential, or better, incremental imaging
- For work-related stuff: encryption

But it's ok because we're white.

i actually got caught the one time i did this as an adult and the manager bitch actually called the cops. so i bolted. went back the next day and paid in pennies, got my receipt told them to keep the cup/drink and then i asked for manager and said, there it's paid for.

women don't go to college and get grown up jobs what the fuck are you talking about

If i was sexually repressed i would fuck 1 person, not change partner more often than you change underwear.

god bless Cred Forums

Nice way to exemplify your hollywood-tier understanding of female sexuality, also blaming Christians.
You get what's coming to you

that's the point. if we new she was a slut, we could bypass her up front.
then after we invest so much time/money/emotions in her to learn she's not pristine when she portrayed herself to be pristine, we feel swindled.

also, the odometer would give chicks an incentive to keep the miles low.

10/10

but what does it matter if she was a slut years ago? she's changed now, and is ready to be faithful to her partner, and in fact was with her previous partner. what does "pristine" even mean? the skin cells that other penises touched died and were replaced long ago.

Anyone know why captcha works just fine in Opera but I get the bullshit illegible ones in SeaMonkey no matter how many times I reload them?

hate that podcasts are called podcasts.
named as if iPod is the only platform for these shows.
also, cast... nothing is casted in a podcast. by a loose definition, the link to the file may be broadcasted, but not the file/show itself.

>why u do dis?!

you ever hear the word cuck?

This made me kek 2 deth for some reason.

No, they don't care, the employees anyway.

They just want to put in their fill of time and go home.

But still, why not just buy the soda? Your mom sounds like a coupon clipper taken to obsessive levels. I'm sure she scoops up half the damn napkin rack and loads up her purse with ketchup packets too.

to some it may not matter.
she should be honest up front and not try to trick the dude.
if the dude is cool with it, then whatever... but if a guy prefers a non-slut, he should be able to know she's no slut.
but since bitches lie, odometer should be req'd.

Are there any Indian people on Cred Forums? How do they feel about the Pajeet jokes?

maybe because it's seeing a unknown user-agent and it's giving you extra hard stuff?
try changing to say Mozilla with a plugin or something.

I never did. Now when I go in, if I don't get a free soda from someone I know that still works there I ask for a large water and get a free soda anyway

UA reports as Firefox

if they are indians, but not pajeets they should agree with them.
just like if a black person isn't a nigger, they should stand up against niggers too.

>female significant other who engages in sexual activities with other men

yes, if you ask her about her sexual history up front and she lies you have a good reason to be upset.

exactly! if it's not on itunes, it should not be called podcast. then again, none of them should have cast in the name.

user, you've reached new levels of autism. It's a portmanteau of iPod and broadcast because even though it's not actually being broadcasted it's essentially a radio talkshow broadcast for your iPod

need help Cred Forums, im in a class where we need to develop a web project using java and .net, the problem is we need to find a hosting that can support both, we were thinking on going with digitalocean but then we don't know what to do with the ".net" part (it's obligatory) what are good options? getting two hosting? use mono?

How hard would it be to set up a two-part authentication system for a computer that requires the user to be wearing a certain object and know the password? The object could be something like a ring or pendant with an embedded RF chip or something similar that just talks to a receiver on the computer, but how hard would the software be?

Asked this yesterday but I got no response. I'm looking to capture screenshots specifically from my PS3 and 360 through HDMI. Is there any cheap capture card that can manage this that doesn't require me to spend $170+ on an Elgato? I don't necessarily need video capture, I just want to screenshot stuff for fun. Or is this one of those situations where there's nothing that specific and I'm going to have to settle for an Elgato?

you are dumb lol

if ringPresent == true && passwordCorrect == true
then allowAccess
else println "fuck off"

Okay I have a computer with an internet access.

Computer - Switch - Router - Internet
No problem.

I have another Computer that I want to add to a seperate network.
Figured it was just as easy to plug them a network cable between them, but that wasn't the case.
They both find the network, but it is unidentified and as far as I've seen I haven't been able to change that.
Is there an easy way to force the computers to recognize eachother?

How would you go about creating the interface between the ring and the computer, and how would you integrate it into the built-in login system?

see pic. or integrate it with smartphone.

These fan cable splitters do not have any impact on how fast the fan spins, right? I got molex -> 3pin adapter powering one fan right now and would like to add another fan to it.

Why isn't there more 1440p laptops out there? I can only recall some Lenovo Yoga model that has it. Seems like everyone just goes with 1080p or 4k

Only gaming uses 1440p, every other part of tech industry is skipping it and going straight to 4k. Laptops are marketed to casuals and they tend to prefer 4k or Full HD because those are the terms heavily used by marketing.

its a portmantoe of "podular" and "broadcast"

Fixed it in an unsatisfactory way, but good enough.
Nevermind me.

What's the best, relatively inexpensive, VPN?

Why is it that if I max out my download speed I can still browse around, but if I max out my upload speed everything goes to shit?

the former is controlled by your software,
the latter is controlled by your ISP.

Aren't they both controlled by my ISP though?

your kernel downloads and uploads, and doesn't know that you have the option of one or the other like your ISP does. splitting a connection one way among programs is easy, splitting the bandwidth in your situation is hard.

Does webm for bakas have a feature to swap the audio tracks? It uses the first track by default and there isn't an option to use the second.

What for?

4k also displays 1080p content better than 1440p does.

It's also retarded as fuck for anything battery powered

I wanna connect this latitude 2120 with debian to the internet by connecting it to my thinkpad whos wireless actually works via an ethernet cable
halp

Just for basic downloading and browsing on a network that blocks certain sites. It also seems to block certain free VPNs, and the one it didn't block I already used to its cap.
Since I don't plan on doing anything illegal with it, would it be safe to pay with a personal credit card or should I get a throwaway card?

Agreed. I think the push to 4k is overwhelmingly a marketing thing and not worth the extra resources they consume in most situations. However the one technical argument for jumping straight from FHD to 4k is the perfect scaling. That actually makes a huge difference when you're trying to run something at lower than native resolutions on lcd.

Go with pia. They offer good alternative payment options and they're cheap. Never use free VPNs.

I'd be perfectly content with running shit at HD for stuff my machine can't handle at QHD

on videos, bitrate is all that matters.
on UI, that's software level vector handling. nothing to worry about.
it's a straight up meme.

I moved into an apartment with a roommate
We are supplied internet via one Ethernet ports in each our rooms
I don't have a need for WiFi and I just use a desktop so I plugged my PC directly into the Ethernet port

Is this full dummy? To be clear, it goes PC -> wall, not PC -> router -> wall

Am I vulnerable to things this way? Should I go buy a router/and use Ethernet that way?

>implying I'm him
That's a reasonable assumption in the context.
>implying Windows has a functional CLI
It doesn't, but Powershell is a good babystep to a real CLI, until you install a putty shell or cygwin.
>implying sotfware should look like ass just because you can into CLI
If you care how shiney your software looks there is a fine community that you might like at reddit.com/r/unixporn

>autist
Not an argument. When you call someone an autiste, you admit they are smarter then you.

You just downloaded the update KBTHXDOC you just need to revert that
For reals tho, your GPU might be acting up

>hurdurr I'm fine with everything looking like shit
Jesus Christ there's something wrong with you. Go see a neurologist.

Actually running native resolution is important. If you set a 1080p screen to something like 1360x768 to relieve stress on your GPU, your screen will look like shit compared to one that's built for that resolution. This was not so with CRT monitors.

Indeed.

No, that's she told you, Todd.

android scales UI accordingly. Windows/other systems that let you 'set your screen resolution' instead of just setting a DPI are just a pile of shit.
again, doesn't matter for video.

Post your desktop with this thread open in the next minute or your argument will be invalidated.

>And I'm not saying you're smarter than me, I'm saying that your brain is fucking malfunctional.
That is a contradiction in terms, because an autistic brain is FULLY functional. Far beyond the level of a normie brain.

>Post your desktop with this thread open in the next minute or your argument will be invalidated.

>m-muh semantics
Autism.

And because an autistic brain is FULLY functional. Far beyond the level of a normie brain, you admit (for the third time) defeat in this argument.

Autism.

Yes and yes.

Does connecting to a VPN negate an ISP attempts to throttle p2p connections?

>What kind of intrusions am I vulnerable to
Someone could guess your password with a bruteforce attack just like they got the Hilldawg, and while you can improve your encryption and take steps to change your routers password every month (you do change your router's password every month, right?) it's still an unnecessary risk, when it can be completely eliminated with a simple cheap cable.

>Could a bank login be compromised
Absolutely. They could mimic your router, and give your laptop a fake signal to a fake bank site identical to your real one, that accepts you password and gives you a "This site is under maintenence at the moment" alert.

I'm honestly too tired to identify on what level I'm being fucked with. I edited my comment wrong. My point is correct though. Feel free to reply without quoting.

Which user? I think I misunderstood you, and was going on to explain why you should NOT use a router.

My CPU fan has been acting weird lately, when I start my computer it runs normally, but during the course of an hour or two it slows down (once it even "reached" 0RPM, although the fan was still running irl). Also, the CPU temperature sometimes reaches 100°C, but when I touch the case (near the region where the CPU socket is located) it doesn't feel very hot (and I have never experimented with overclocking before, so I suppose the CPU would shut down before reaching such a high temperature, right?)

I am starting to wonder whether the problem lies not in my CPU fan, but on the BIOS/software I am using to measure/read the cou fan speed/cpu core temperature
would such a thing even be possible? How could I find out for sure? And how could I fix it?

Oh, and I started to have problems with my CPU fan a while after one of the Windows 10 updates, could that be somehow related?

any help would be appreciated, if you need clarifications or more information, don't hesitate to ask

Yeah a router is not going to make your technology more secure. It's just another point of failure in the chain of command. Unless you have more then one device you want using the same legal IP, then there's really no point.

You literally told me to buy a router

Ok, so you are connected to a router somewhere. That's a fact. The question is how many other people are on that same network with you, and thus have elevated access to your shit. If you aren't comfortable with that you can insert your own router into the line to provide you with a hardware firewall, at the cost of some latency in your connection and your nat type being closed.

Go here emailcongress.us/ and use it to find the contact pages of your state's senators.

Copy and paste this into the body of your email/comment and hit send.

Dear Senator,

Hello- it's recently come to my attention that at the start of October, President Obama plans to pass control over the internet from the United States to ICANN, and that ICANN will transition into a globally owned entity. This has extreme implications about our first amendment and I believe will jeopardize the ability of internet users to download, upload, and share material in a free way. If any nations hostile to the American constitution were to acquire a sizable share in ICANN, they would undoubtedly start to impose censorship laws on certain materials and websites. This is a concern to anybody who values free speech and transfer of ideas, so please vote against this.

Repeat this daily and spread the word

it's missing plenty of binaries, but you can install a package manager to reinstall them.
no. but clearing out your browser's folder beyond just clearing the cache will help a lot. I would delete/move the whole thing and move back what you can make out that you need, like bookmarks.

>how important is the mobo in this? I have a cheapass 100€ z series board and i am really concerned about this since i couldn't find any documentation of its power delivery.

No

How do I get bash to assign the input wildcard to a corresponding output wildcard. For example in ffmpeg I'm trying to get a frame from each of multiple videos in a directory and have that image labeled with the name of the video.

ffmpeg -i *.wmv -ss 00:00:10 -vframes 1 *.png

Something that will give the .png a unique name corresponding to the video.

there are too many things that could go wrong to rank them too well.
Find a manufacturer that has good firmware and reliability and go with that.

Personally, I would prioritize size, or just general ability to be hidden. Not that I'm into that sort of thing.

name them incrementally, I would guess.
It would be simpler to just input two files of filenames.

literally any office suite? be more specific.

I hardly see any googles working in the medical field

probably some integrity check or other. Should be mentioned in BIOS.

Are there any small cameras that i could plug into my phone? TLDR someone at work is making loads of BS claims about me and im going to record everything i do to prove hes bullshitting. I was wanting something like those small clip on mics reporters put on people they interview, and then id just run the cord on the inside of my shirt or something.

Why dont you just use your phone?

Transmission

thanks appreciate it

Why don't you go ask in your local prison cuz that's where you are going buddy

Are there any decent Windows laptops that come in 16:10? 16:9 just looks retarded to me after having used a Macbook Pro for 5 years

nope. slow and repetitive is the only way.

I'm on Arch and my screen goes black after 10 minutes. If I leave it for a few more minutes, it doesn't come back on at all no matter what I click and I have to exit X. What could be wrong?

there's a toughbook, cz730 or something. It's mainly sold in japan, though, so it's tough to find where to snag it on panasonic's website.

Whenever I shut my Windows 8 laptop, it disconnects from the internet. When I open it up again, it's still disconnected, and it says there are connections available. But when I click to connect, it says there AREN'T any connections available (and then sometimes if I check the settings, it'll say I'm already connected). I have to wait a few minutes, then it'll reconnect automatically.
Is there anything I can do to fix it? It's really annoying.

check logs.
/var/log/
systemctl status [login manager name here]

it happens only on certain connections for me, so your router settings could play in.
But I don't really know. I would also like an answer.

power settings, advanced, do not let it disable the wireless card to save energy.
If that doesn't help try disabling fast boot or fast start or whatever the fuck that was called. In system, not bios. I've seen it do exactly what you describe.
I assume you already tried reinstalling driver.

thanks

what's with the mod/janitor deleting the scifi thread? science fiction is tech related,

For years and years I've been using a free @inbox.com email account, but today they are finally shutting down their free service due to financial reason.

Any decent, good or worthwhile online editors/text editors that've the same, similar or familiar feeling/s like desktop editors? sublime, atom, etc I just want something web based and hopefully/possibly modern but whatevs don't really need it modern but it would be nice/convenient if looks spiffy, nice, spiffy and such

can someone please explain to me what subnetting is and how it works?

From what I understand now, it's something like
>Have IP 192.168.4.0 with subnet mask of 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000
>Only 253 available IPs
>If I subnet 192.168.4.0 to 11111111.11111111.11111111.11000000
>I now have 4 subnetworks, each with their own 253 IPs

but my book doesn't make it seem that way.

It makes it seem like the IP 192.168.4.0 is just divided up into parcels of host IDs, and that only the host IDs in the designated range can communicate with each other

Yeah, I noticed it started happening when I switched ISPs and got a new router.

So my hard drive crashed and I didn't have an image of windows saved. I had a dell desktop and upgraded parts over time. I called dell and asked what I could do. They told me the product key for windows 8 is embedded in the motherboard software. I don't have a compatible processor for that motherboard. Is there anyway I can get the product key?

Xorg logs show "config/udev: Adding input device Acer BMA150 accelerometer (/dev/input/event6)" and does it again with js0 instead of event6; "No input driver specified, ignoring this device."; "This device may have been added with another device file." then a bunch of lines of
Option "fd" "15"
Option "fd" "18", etc., then "UnloadModule libinput" repeated after every line of "systemd-logind: releasing fd for 13:69" (or 13:72/whatever).

Is this the wrong place? I don't see that option anywhere.

im doing a clean reinstall on ubuntu cause it shit up my laptop so bad and i still wont put on windows

noose or helium tank?

is there any way to reclaim space on my SSD without doing a full defrag?
I scanned it out of curiosity and it's like 85% fragmented, you could probably squeeze several gigabytes out of that but the way I understand it it'll seriously reduce the lifespan of the drive

>ssd
>fragmentation
what

Not saying it's 100% it, it's just that i've seen this option cause exact problem before.

eightforums.com/tutorials/6320-fast-startup-turn-off-windows-8-a.html

Pls answer me

they do get fragmented m8
SSDs still use blocks
it just doesn't really affect performance because there's no mechanical process required to read a given spot

I got a new pc and previous laptop feels slow as fuck now.
what can i do to make it faster?
it takes like at least 5 mins to get it working after start up or it gets stuck.

How were you using it without a CPU?

Anyway, if you can get it working, there's utility called "Read Write Everything" or RW everything. There's a guide how to read key from bios. Pretty straight forward.

Is anyone able to answer my question here?

Why specifically do people use Vim/Emacs when SublimeText/Notpad++/etc. exist? Not trolling, just wondering if I should switch.

Switch from what to what?

I've updated both the motherboard and the CPU and I don't have the CPU anymore.

Should I buy an android box for my tv shows? I tried my friend's and it's cool how it collects all the different streams seamlessly without bullshit, unlike finding a decent stream on a PC.

Or can I just get Kodi and chromecast it to my smart tv? (is this possible)

because i plan on recording hours of stuff, and my phone is in my pocket most of the day? a small button camera sized thing i can clip on my collar would work a lot better than holding my phone up for 8 hours every day

My ethernet port isn't working, I tried a different cable but no change. Wouldn't be a big deal but I play csgo at a semi-pro level. I'm on University Wi-Fi rn and at like 10pm on school nights, I'll be rubberbanding across the map. Will be 30 ping but every 5 seconds it'll jump up to 300 for a second or two. I updated the ethernet driver too. Will installing a chipset driver help at all? Is that the same as motherboard? I plug the cable in and in Network center it says nothing is plugged into the port.

So my system's only got 512MiB RAM. Would moving the page file to a microSD card be beneficial? The card's only got half the sequential r/w speeds of the HDD but the random r/w is 6x faster

how am I supposed use my 128 gb microsd on my android phone.
When I format it under windows as exfat(only option besides ntfs) it asks me to install drivers for it. Thing is I disabled google services and to install it requires me to login google. When I plug it as a raw disk so phone can find what works for it, It stays corrupt. I tried both gpt and mbr. Also I don't have root.

If I want to be able to play games like Fallout 4, Wasteland 2, Pillars of Eternity and GTA V at medium/high @1080, would the RX 460 be the best card for me?

I'm looking to run Crossfire 2 r9 Fury cards. I looked at a few different websites. some say my 850W is enough, others say it isn't. Can I get a clear answer?

sony.co.uk/electronics/televisions/xd7505-xd7005-series
lg.com/uk/tvs/lg-49UH650V
49" version of both.
I don't give a shit about the "smart" functions.
As far as I can tell the LG is better because it has a 100Hz panel (yes, that's the actual refresh rate, not interpolation bullshit, and it's divisible by 50 and not 60 because of Europoor)

>Fallout 4, Wasteland 2, Pillars of Eternity and GTA V
Horrible, horrible taste

from the looks of the place that mic cost you a month's rent...

Have you considered just googling benchmarks for the 460?

Pls respond need a network pro

Just use rufus and an x86-64 image to get it onto your USB drive.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but oh well. Is it possible to "re-master" something like a concert that's 360p or 480p to look better in after effects, premiere or anything else with non-professional knowledge?

but I can't use that as a server

I'm not ready to go balls dip and hop off the wincuck train entirely, but i'm thinking I need to try the desktop version of this first if I want to have any clue how to run a remote/headless machine

Think of it like this - the file size is determined (normally) by how much information is stored within it. The reason a smaller 1080p video looks worse than a larger one is the larger one (usually) has more colour and sound information than the smaller one.

Your 360p file just doesn't have that information stored in it, that's why it's a smaller resolution and looks like shit. There is no way to make it look "better" unless you consider running a sharpen filter or something to be "better" looking.

Is it possible to make a story-driven boss-rush FPS in Unreal Engine 2?

Yeah dude just enhance it

I got a moto g phone with a new sd card. When I put it in it said something along the lines of "this memory card may be too slow". Then sometimes the sd card loses connection with the phone and I have to put it back in. Is this a broken harness or does it have something to do with the error message?

Hey Cred Forums
Stupid question for overclocking cpu
So basically what I want to do is start with a voltage, like 1.1, then raise my multiplier until it fails right?
Then when it fails, I raise my voltage.
I rinse and repeat until I got to the clocks I want at a certain temp right?

So for the most part, I ONLY raise my voltage until my overclock fails?
Also what increments should I raise my voltage? .01 volt?

I've been trying to get the anniversary update for Windows 10 to install for fucking ever now because I want bash, but it /won't fucking do it/
Everything I look up says to either download the ISO and reinstall everything (fucking dumb) or to just manually hit "check for updates", which I have done, ten million trillion fucking times.
How the fucking hell do I get this stupid thing to install?

Really dumb question: Is there a way to upload pics on 4chins without downloading them?

I just reinstalled Windows 7 on one of my machines, and is still checking for updates even though I started it last night. Is there any way to speed this shit up?

I had that problem, I'm very sorry but I can't remember anything about how I ended up fixing it.

Why would you install Microsoft's evil updates anyways?

I'm reinstalling from the original 2009 install disk. Newer updates have UI improvements and stability improvements which I need. Without the updates my machine crashes like nobodies business.

I wish I could help, iirc Microsoft released some fix to speed up updates and reduce CPU usage

You probably already found that when you googled the problem though

if my laptop has a maximum memory capacity of 12GB with 2 GB integrated to the mobo, could a put a 16 GB stick in and have it utilize 10GB? Or should I just go for an 8GB and call it a day

I have an Xfinity modem/router combo thing. I have an old router that handles 5GHz so it's about on par with the Xfinity one. My question is, can I use it to boost the wireless signal strength? Maybe the performance too? Although I'm sure that'll actually go down if anything.

assuming the port can put out enough amps, no, the fans should spin the same speed

Is liquid cooling actually helpful?

I'm in Australia and during the summer in my non-airconditioned bedroom it can get incredibly hot with my computer on all day.

I started windows with only my ssd and it said windows could not startup correctly, but when I had my hard drive in as well everything worked. My OS is on my SSD. Why wouldn't it boot with only the SSD?

It might have files for startup services installed on the hard drive after an update

Never install windows with multiple drives connected

im an idiot and i want a easy linux distro, so i made a partion with aoemi, and it says make bootable media can i possibly make that a linux boot up instead of getting a usb and doing this whole iso thing.

I logged in to an old email account and found a strange message. Apparently someone tried to reset my fitbit.com password twice in the past 24 hours (I don't even remember making an account on this website). I assumed it was a phishing attempt, but maybe I did make an account and just forgot about it.

So I checked "have I been pwned", and apparently 3 accounts made with this email have been leaked (dropbox, neopets? patreon? don't remember those two). This email is old, and I know that I made neopets accounts in the past, but I don't remember using this email address. When I searched my email account I found no messages from either neopets or patreon. When I go to patreon.com and say "forgot password", it doesn't even recognize my email address.

The only thing I can think of to explain this is an error on the part of haveIbeenpwned. There must have been a paste that contained dropbox accounts, neopets accounts, and patreon accounts, and somehow I got lumped in with all of them.

Anyways, what do you thing is going on, and how worried should I be? I know I re-used passwords in the past, but I have no fucking idea on what websites and with which passwords (they were never simple, but I'm still using variations of one of them to this day).

I'm chatting to some person in a web chat. They speak Spanish, I speak English.

Instead of typing my responses into google translate, copying the translated text, and pasting it into the chat, is there a quicker way to go about this?

It would be nice if there is a chrome extension where you can just highlight your text and it will automatically translate it.

i have no idea what you just wrote

Are you for real?

Yes. I searched chrome extensions and I found one that lets you highlight text and view the translation but not one that will actually change your text.

let me snip it for you, can i possibly use aoei for my advantage so im a poor fag who cant afford a usb drive right now to get linux, or do i need a usb drive

anyone know what this means?

Default...

>cant afford $5 8gb flash drive
Yet you have internet?

i don't know what that programs is, but it is possible to install linux without leaving windows or using a usb flash drive

Oh damn, now I want to do this.right in the nostalgia feels

how can i do it, i want to dual boot. Please do tell.

?

nigga
chrome has that shit BUILT IN

you can use a VM with a real disk attached to it
can be risky if you have no clue what you're doing (but so can a normal OS install)

it would even be possible for me to help you directly over teamviewer or something, though a stranger from Cred Forums might not scream "safe" either

Are you sure? The language section does not have much options.

i really wanted a separate boot up instead of using vm

yes, what you do is you attach a real, physical disk to a VM, and install through the VM to the physical disk
when it's done, the OS is on the physical disk, just like a normal install, you don't need the VM anymore

Put laptop on something that won't choke cooling air. So don't put it on your bed/blanket etc. Clean out the heatsink by spraying compressed air into it until no more dust is coming out. Make sure you're not running anything cpu intensive by checking your task manager.

can you tell me step by step how to do this

or atleast a youtube video

1. create a space or partition in which you want to install linux, ensure it's unmounted from in windows
2. install virtualbox
3. create vmdks pointing to relevant disks with vboxmanage
4. create a VM with those vmdks attached
5. install linux in the VM
6. ???
