let's suppose i have a gaming rig in my room and a crappy laptop in another room in the same house.
can i screenshare from the gaming pc to the laptop using the home network?
what kind of trouble, limitations, performance issues and software would i run into?

store.steampowered.com/streaming/

what kind of delay can i expect in ms?

10-30ms

I can browse the internet but whenever i try to play games online i can't connect to the other servers got any fixes?

you have to figure out the problem first.
does it work on other computers?
are any other ports than 80 and 443 blocked?

you might want to call your ISP for that.

Port 80 is blocked

outgoing, not incoming.
But if your ISP is already willing to actually block, they might have just blocked everything else too.
Give them a call.

how do you tell if it's ingoing or outgoing?

if they'd block port 80 outgoing you couldn't browse the web.
some ISPs want to prevent people from running web servers, so they block port 80 incoming.

Get some game servers IP then ping it.
If it works try telnetting to the IP and Port that the game would use.
If it can't connect they might do some shenanigans and block it.

Just call them.

Aight

i have some webdev/java experience and im pretty good at making things.

how do i make money within a month without leaving my room?

look for freelance jobs

i had a similar problem for months.
turn of the firewall and other antivirus or similar stuff.
try opening ports on your router.
change dns(that was what worked for me, try many different ones or even the automatic ones, ISP may block most of what they don't like, even legit ones like google).
if none of that works give your ISP a call.

how/where?

wherever your countries/towns freelance job postings are.

what's a good dns?

If I connect from a Windows machine to a Linux machine per ssh, can I use the Linux commands in that shell or am I still dependent on the Windows commands somehow?

Looking to learn java but I'm not sure how to incorporate it into a project. I want to go into back end dev and I've worked with Django, but the Spring framework looks like cancer for small projects. What do?

You will have a completely normal Linux shell and can use all of the commands.

You use the Linux commands

Need some linux help here - I've just installed arch (antergos) with btrfs subvolumes, but something is wrong when I boot it up. I have one subvolume that has the / mount point and a separate one for /home.

The system boots up, but when I log in it puts me in the empty home directory in the root subvolume and not in the actual /home that's on it's own subvolume. I double checked the fstab, what else could have I fucked up?

Ok, thanks for clarification.

Does your fstab look somewhat like this?
LABEL=whatever / btrfs rw,relatime,discard,ssd,compress=lzo,space_cache 0 0
LABEL=whatever /home btrfs rw,relatime,discard,ssd,compress=lzo,space_cache,subvol=home 0 0
Getting the 'subvol=home' (or whatever you called it) part is important

Yeah, the only notable difference being that I also have a subvol option for the root partition as well, but I guess that's fine, since I have a specific subvolume for root.

Looking at the files on the whole partition, everything seems to be as it should be, so I must have messed fstab or some other config.

btw, I followed this tutorial:
wheredoi.click/Antergos-btrfs-setup.webm

You might need to configure some port forwarding buddy. Usually its done automatically, but your antivirus or firewall might be blocking the ports that you need open.
You can most definitely do it on your own, but you gotta tweak some of your router settings, try figuring out what ports you need open, then look for the manual for your WAP/router and check if it supports Port forwarding.

How often should I clean the inside of my desktop? I see some fine dust buildup, but kinda lazy to do a proper clean-up.

any good ryzen APU laptops for less than $500?

I guess it depends on how good is your case at filtering out dust. Normally I used to do it once a year, but I've become too lazy for that.

What is the OAuth Group and why is fucking everything part of it now?

Anyone else have issues with the AMD Radeon Settings? I'm running on 18.7.1 and the piece of shit won't apply the FPS cap on Squad.
I can't run it at 144fps so I'd like to cap it to 60 so my R9 290 won't scream all the fucking time and the game doesn't have a setting for that, and the Radeon Settings one doesn't fucking work.

why doesnt logicalincrements include m.2 ssd's in their guides? They're just marginally more expensive for a multiple-fold speed increase

Trying to make a .bat that merges all .mkv in a folder into one file. I'm close with:

@echo off
for %%a in (*.mkv) do (
mkvmerge -o "Merged.mkv" "%%a"
)


But it outputs a Merged.mkv that is a replica of only the last file to was merged.

Why doesn't noscript captcha work for me?

Attached: 2018-08-05-12:08:49-screenshot.png (1273x713, 183K)

because you tell it to take one mkv file and "merge" it into merged.mkv
this happens for each file, overwriting merged.mkv all the time.
you need to tell mkvmerge all files in one line.

mkvtoolnix.download/doc/mkvmerge.html#mkvmerge.synopsis

You're blocking google services
Use umatix and then click the puzzle piece and let it whtielist the required captcha services

>You're blocking google services
How? I only use Ublock Origin and have disabled third-party cookies.
May it be due to the latter?

Yes

@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set files=
for /f "delims=|" %%f in ('dir /b *.mkv') do (
set "files=!files! %%f"
)
set files=%files: =%
mkvmerge -o merged.mkv %files%
mind the extra space after set files=, it's important.

Hey i'm trying to get webm converting set up on my new computer but the version of webm for retards I was using wasn't even using a multithreaded version of ffmpeg. I've manually gone and installed the latest version of ffmpeg and tried to do a conversion using the default settings but it seems to only be using a small percentage of my processor. I basically want to create four optimized commands.
>1] converting a file to .webm that has a max size of 2.85 mb and doesn't have sound for normal boards.
>2] converting a file to .webm that has a max size of 3.85 mb and has sound for gif and wsg.
>3] converting a file to .webm that has a max size of 7.8 mb and no sound for discord.
>3] converting a file to .webm that has a max size of 7.8 mb and has sound for discord.
I'm reading the docs now but mainly I wanted to know if anyone knows the section of the documentation where I can adjust the core/thread usage?

Oh sweet, thank you this should be enough to easily make my own scripts. Thanks a bunch user.

Wat do with 1gb ddr2 laptop rams ty

instead of this I'd recommend 2pass encoding with a set max bitrate based on the length of the video so that, in the worst case, it would fit into your file size constraints.

Flaws in this guide:
setting a bitrate with -b:v will ignore -fs filesize constraints.
If you omit the bitrate it'll default to 200kb/s and you get a really really low quality encode with a possible much smaller filesize than you targeted when you could have used that space for much better quality.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Who cares
>-b:v will ignore -fs filesize constraints
Nope, it does not.It will only output at that bit rate till it his the fs hard cap.

Alright red alert, I need a serious answer. Got fired from my manufacturing job after getting a respiratory issue that isn't going away soon enough, and I'm balls deep in uninsured medical bills with more on the way because I'm trying to find a pulmonary specialist that takes patients without insurance. That's the end of the blog part.
So I've been learning the basics of html/css, and I have experience owning/managing two service businesses. Did logos, SEO, managed the website, advertised, so I know I can sell my services. But here's what I want to do, and I'd like to hear from folks who may know more about it, I'd (optimally) like to utilize html/css to design and develop websites for small compaies and other entities. What is probably most practical is to just do the estimate, use wix, whip out some shit real fast and profit.

Where do I start with this, because I need money, have half a brain, but can't do any sort of physical work, and would like to get on this as soon as possible.

>Nope, it does not.It will only output at that bit rate till it his the fs hard cap.
Not on my tests I did.
ffmpeg -i .\test.mkv -c:v libvpx -b:v 10M -t 60 -fs 3MB -an -sn test.webm
Yields me a 7.5MB webm.

Besides the documentation
-fs limit_size (output)

Set the file size limit, expressed in bytes. No further chunk of bytes is written after the limit is exceeded. The size of the output file is slightly more than the requested file size.

sounds more like a hard limit, like when you're constrained on disk size/file format limits.

huh? are you a hacker or something?

Yes. That's a lot of yiff you have there on your computer. Shame on you.

I am using Halite and sometimes when I close down the program 80% of my torrents just disappears the next day I re-open it.

How do I stop this from happening? I tried increasing the max size for the cache and it doesn't seems to work at all even when the size I set > current total size displayed by the program.

Apparently, it was the fault of the Privacy Badger, thanks!

why are decent performing hardware so expensive? the highend smartphones costs 800 dollars, the modern laptops cost around 1500 dollars, the highend desktops cost around 2000/3000 dollars

not Jow Forums-related but is your health problems caused by abestos? It's very easy to get a case going and pursue for damages at least in britbongistan.

Is soulseek legit?

Decent performing hardware is very cheap.
A good smart phone costs you like 200-300$, a laptop 800$ and a desktop computer you can get for 1200$.

Just don't fall for the marketing memes that artificially inflate the prices.

Also not Jow Forums related but no, it's pneumonitis, almost certainly caused by air hosing off the blender units at the plastic product place I worked at two days before I went to the ER. I don't know, there's no.. really solid way to legally put the blame on the company even though it was their fault because I wasn't supplied with a dust mask, but even if I could prove it I couldn't afford a lawyer. It's the same in burgerland with asbestos, thanks for the suggestion though.

Hi guys. How can I remove credit card information from AWS?
The FAQ says that I only can do this if I add another payment method. But I just want to remove my fucking credit card information.

What's better: a slightly taller aluminium heatsink or a slightly shorter copper one?

I'm trying to meme up my raspberry pi. Yes I know it's not necessary but it's also cheap as fuck so why not.

As cucked as UK currently is at least corporations can't get away with this easily, I hope everything works out for you user.

about streaming games inhome...
what if instead of using steam in-home streaming(with plenty of lag) i buy an additional monitor and run HDMI and USB cable to the other room, while manally transporting mouse and kb? it's less than 8 meters of cable run.
how would i solve audio?
would i need very expensive faggotron cables to prevent noise?

it sounds like a janky setup, but if it works i can justify the second monitor due to my personal needs.

I use a raspberry pi 3 with moonlight because my house is wired with ethernet.
Audio would probably work out just fine, HDMI can be very picky.

I have HW raid1 with two HDDs and I want to replace those HDDs with two SSDs.

How do I do this?
It's easy to clone a single drive, but what about raid?

d-does HDMI cover audio? will i find audio output on my monitor to plugin earbuds?

if it's a RAID1 just replace one with the SSD and let it restore the RAID, then do the same with the other.

I have a pretty old CRT tv I want to salvage to play some retro games. Is there anything I can do to reduce the humming noise emitted from the tv when powered on? I read somewhere that it might have something to do with the capacitors getting old and needing to be replaced.

>d-does HDMI cover audio?
yes, how do you think TVs work?

>will i find audio output on my monitor to plugin earbuds?
If you monitor has an audio output, sure. only you can figure this out.

Thanks my guy, they're literally the largest producer of blow molded high density polyethylene products and really, just fucking really, the only people holding that company up are their vicious as fuck HR people.

will this work though since hdd and ssd aren't identical drives?

The RAID really doesn't care what you plop in, as long as you can physically connect it.

Ask Falcon, but I'd imagine it's some combination of SATA being guaranteed to work on any motherboard, with any CPU, and any OS (even Win 7), and the fact that that extra performance isn't much compared to the jump you get from an HDD to an SSD. People going on a "What can I buy given this budget?" site are probably more interested in saving the few bucks, the people who already know they want nvme and why aren't really the site's target audience.

The partion alignment will be off, resulting in decreased performance, but data retention wise, just replace one drive,rebuild then another, rebuild and you should be fine

How do I convert an image to a pdf with an EXACT file size?

I have to submit a file with a tiny arbitrary file size limit, and no matter how many times I crop or resize I can't get it within that range

Thank you so much because this looks really complicated and out of my scope, but sadly it doesn't work. It creates a video that has the joint runtime, but the actual video content stops at 2 minutes (which would be the end of the initial video). This is on MPV. Any idea? I tried with 2 set of videos from different sources, same result.

Exact is not so easy.
If you use imagemagick the PDF is about 20KB larger than the image file.
If you reduce the quality of your image first then you can get it a bit smaller, depending on the source image.

Ok, got it to work. Apparently I fucked up copying some stuff to the home subvolume. Thanks for the help anyway.

that's what mkvmerge does, it'll merge them all into different video streams.
if you want to join them you need to add a + between the files.

Check the documentation
A single '+' causes the next file to be appended instead of added. The '+' can also be put in front of the next file name. Therefore the following two commands are equivalent:

$ mkvmerge -o full.mkv file1.mkv + file2.mkv
$ mkvmerge -o full.mkv file1.mkv +file2.mkv

So change it to
@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set files=
for /f "delims=|" %%f in ('dir /b *.mkv') do (
set "files=!files! +%%f"
)
set files=%files: +=%
mkvmerge -o merged.mkv %files%
pause

Thanks much again. Too bad though:
>No append mapping was given for the file no. 1 ('b.mkv'). A default mapping of 1:0:0:0,1:1:0:1,1:2:0:2,1:3:0:3,1:4:0:4 will be used instead. Please keep that in mind if mkvmerge aborts with an error message regarding invalid '--append-to' options.
>Error: The file no. 0 ('a.mkv') does not contain a track with the ID 4, or that track is not to be copied. Therefore no track can be appended to it. The argument for '--append-to' was invalid.
Do you think there's any way around this? A quick search gives a not very friendly feeling. Plus I tried with the other video and
>Error: The file 'kare' could not be opened for reading: open file error.
Think I'll install ffmpeg and try your code with that instead, this looks like a dead end.

And my fucking god. Who the FUCK standardized ordered chapters in anime...

got one of these. got tapes as well, it works through SCSI interface. how do I use it? is the software available for free? do I have to use linux for it to work?

you can manually specify which tracks to copy if they're mostly the same.
mkvtoolnix.download/doc/mkvmerge.html#d4e1753

the second error is because it a file probably has spaces in it, you can enclose it with ""
set "files=!files! +^"%%f^""

Hackintosh question, so unlikely to get any answer but hey, might as well try!

So I got HighSierraV3 from AMD-OSX, and after some trial & error I got into the installer, and managed a few steps. The big issue so far is only that my PS2 keyboard doesn't work during the installer and the next step needs me to type shit into the terminal.

So far I failed to make the VoodooPS2Controller work and can't find any decent tutorial/alternative. Any hint is appreciated!

How do you use a phone without compromising all of your passwords? If a phone is such a huge security vulnerability, how are you supposed to use one at all?

why do 1440p monitor cost more than double 1080p?
i have enough budget to get more than 1080p gaming cards, but the monitor upgrade pushes off my budget.
what do?

There's way too many variables there.
A 1440p monitor can cost 190euros and a 1080p monitor can cost 300 euros.
It depends much more on what other features they have.

Do you have specific examples of two?

And even when I meet the parameters I'm getting a "please upload a pdf" message

Fuck it's a pdf stupid Indian motherfuckers

The same way you use a laptop without compromising all your passwords? Just don't store them in plaintext or something

But I mean... all of them? Just... put one after the other, like the video? Shouldn't this be the default behavior:
>video 1 is anime opening (1 audio)
>video 2 is anime episode (2 audio)
>merged video is video 1 + video 2, with track 1 being channel 1 + channel 1, and track 2 being silence + channel 2
Does this really need manual input each time?

One of your videos has more tracks than the others, it can't automatically figure out what you're trying to do.
Check the offending video with -i what extra tracks it has.
If you don't need it just specify the other tracks so it gets ignored.

What's going on here?

streaming a video is a whole different story than actually rendering 3d in real time.

Looking to buy a domain name, most of them are already taken with the domain that I want (the usual .com .net .info and so on) however .club and .xyz is still available.
Should I go for it ?

So what's the problem? My monitor? GPU?

I'm getting like 120+ frames

make sure the graphics settings are on high and the resolution is the same as your monitors

if you don't have any other options, sure.
