Why does Linux prioritize alphanumeric characters when sorting filenames? Now all my _folders aren't at the top.

Is the dell R710 still a good choice for babby’s first server?

Wage slave here doing work on a Saturday night because my master says I'm behind.
I work at a company that has ~600 employees and I deal with recruitment and some HR stuff.

Anyway I got an email sent to me that just had a .mp4 file in it.
The senders name and email address doesn't exist in our companies list of employees.

The video is a selfie style video shot by the "suspect" herself and it shows a woman in our bathrooms doing non-nude but still inappropriate things while wearing the company uniform.
Only the bottom half of the woman's face is showing so I can't match it up with pictures of our employees.

The only thing I have I have to go on is the filename.
The filename is the one you get when you download a video from Instagram and looks like this

12345678_1234567891234567_1234567891234567891_n.mp4

If it isn't obvious I replaced the numbers so I don't give out the source.

Does anyone know of a way to find an Instagram profile with only that filename? I have tried googling and experimenting with copy paste on Instagram but to no avail.

Are Librems meme or worth the price tag?

To what extent does windows10 take its orwellian shit?
If I had txt or html files on my pc, is it a reasonable expectation that they've been sent somewhere and read (even if by an algorithm)?

Who's the retard who changed firefox to OPT-IN to save and quit? I've used the about:config option for years, but with the latest update I've just been asked if I want to close a shitload of tabs. To whom do I mail a box of shit?

Will N150 Wireless Router WNR1000v3 work as an Access Point?
>NETGEAR does not recommend or support adding a NETGEAR router behind
another router, or replacing a gateway with a NETGEAR router.
The manual makes me apprehensive, since I have a modem/router combo. Or did they mean that chaining routers isn't the brightest idea?
If it won't work as an Access Point then recommend me something else under 10USD (used would be perfectly fine).

Another question is about SSID. I know that I change the LAN IP of the router I want to make into an AP and then turn DHCP off. That would give me two wi-fi networks unless I change the SSIDs to match, right? Is there a problem with doing it?

So I have a 128GB microSD card that I use with my tablet. It used to work flawlessly, but all of a sudden my tablet just refuses to acknowledge its existence.
If I pop another microSD card in my tablet, that works fine. And if I pop the 128GB card in my phone, that works perfectly fine as well.

I've tried googling, but I've managed to find nothing useful. What the fuck is going on here, and does anyone have a clue how to fix it?

I want to buy a custom case for my ipad pro, what website would you recommend ?

No one here knows for sure. Better expect the worst.

>If I had txt or html files on my pc, is it a reasonable expectation that they've been sent somewhere and read (even if by an algorithm)?
Not really.
Tinfoil hats would have you believe that all your files are sent directly to Microsoft and that Windows 10 deletes your pirated whatever you might have, but none of this has ever been proven to happen.

I removed the plastic modules covering the battery and logic board on my phone because I think it was causing the phone to overheat and freeze

What are the risks of these components not being inside the phone?

If the outside of the phone is metal it could cause you a small (only a few volts in a phone) shock if all the stars align.

where can I find my surf config.h?
how the fuck does j4-make-config works?

Please guys, I wanna buy it and stop agonising over this shit.

I get regular crashes due to vram corruption but only when I'm typing. what should I check first and is it even worth repairing? I have an m3-6Y30 laptop with no dedicated GPU.

Newfag here. I need help Jow Forums bros. I built my first PC, (I'll link part list), installed Win10 (yes, i know, my first mistake), but for some reason my MOBO only picks up the m.2 I have it installed on... sometimes? It flat out takes me almost 20 minutes just to get it started and so far only rebooting over and over again and being lucky works. Is there something I'm missing in the BIOS? Here's the part list: pcpartpicker.com/list/FRtKxG

/stupid/ I need help
I kept getting annoyed by having too many cookies and decided to turn them off ant white list a couple of sites.
When I get too many cookies, shit like youtube and Jow Forums get error pages about cookies being too big or some shit.

Well I did that and now I'm having some weird fucking issues with using 4chin now.
The update button is gone at the bottom of the pages, there's not ip/post/image/page counter anymore, and the post button at the bottom is gone as well.
This is for every board and I don't know what to do.

How do I fix this? I think I might have accidentally deleted a whole bunch of cookies from my cookie thing, something like one of them having 145 cookies but I didn't catch the name before it was deleted.

No nigger, because you posted a fake one. Post the actual link.

>Are Librems meme or worth the price tag?
Everything shilled here is a meme except the refurbed Dell business class laptops. Those are actually pretty good.

Also webm related is happening on every new thread I open. What the fuck is going on?

Power Supply Fan facing up in case or facing down on case?

The case is on carpet btw.

Carpet -> up.

>To what extent does windows10 take its orwellian shit?
They take it to 10. That's why they skipped 9.
>If I had txt or html files on my pc, is it a reasonable expectation that they've been sent somewhere and read (even if by an algorithm)?
Yes.

it should be right there when git cloning surf

Switched back on cookies, but god damn it. why the fuck do I need to keep these on to have Jow Forums work? Was the exception not enough?

Not gonna happen. Tell me how to do it.

TIL iptables in debian should be saved by "iptables-save", otherwise it will disappear after reboot

you wouldnt want to have it in your pocket, it may not happen instantly but someday it will short some part of the device making it invalid

I've got an interesting conundrum. I need to build a powershell script to post a webrequest to a server.

On Powershell 3.0 and higher Invoke-Webrequest works fine and is easily scripted. I have some boxes that running 2.0 and older which don't support Invoke-Webrequest or curl. What do?

How accurate is accubattery on android? It says I've already depleted like 150 mah from my battery on the first day of owning the phone, and all I've done is let it charge while it installed a bunch of updates

I just picked up a really cheap 2014 (I think) mac mini
It already has an account with a password and I have no idea how to do a fresh OS install
Google just keeps dodging my questions, and I tried TransMac to make a bootable flashdrive but the startup disk app doesn't see it, while the Disk Utility does
TLDR; what the fuck do I do with a mac that has a password.

Give it back jamal

hilarious and original

Is there anyway to have an infinite amount of per tab/browsers proxies (that can have the same site running in multiple tabs) or if not, how do I use multitor to have multiple instances of tor constantly connected to multiple different urls?

Is there anywhere I could get some information on this keyboard? No place has any information on this layout/badging, but I've been told it may of been made in Australia. It's also got an AT/XT switch on the back.

how does seeding of thousands of active torrents work? how is the upload bandwidth spread? don't you need an upload bandwidth proportional to the number of torrents you are seeding? explain like I'm a retard

see if you can wipe the current os in recovery mode

Yeah I'm giving up now. I even contacted Instagram and they basically told me to fuck off.
I guess we will just have to live with a thot in our bathroom recording softcore porn.

Seems to vary quite a bit from person to person and with how long they've had it. I had one lady, freshy "upgraded", who had a monthly bandwidth cap. She was suddenly having the whole month's BW capped out every day, as W10 was uploading nearly a terabyte a day. Disabled all the botnet I could via a full reinstall (more or less via OP pasta's method), but she was still losing a lot, so finally I installed Windows AME, which fixed it.

But others I've seen get nothing but a trickle.

Granted, that 1809 patch killed my favorite guild's servers - though I suppose it serves them right for hosting with Win10 images (warned em).

It's less the botnet itself I worry about - and more the fact that it makes the OS downright unusable sometimes (plus patches going live that delete huge swaths of files suggests Microsoft has lost what little grip they had left.)

Check for metadata in the mp4?

A qt grill told me she found some server cables and doesn't know what to do with them.
She says they're gray and flat, so I thought they'd be IDE cables but she says it's for servers and internet connection.
Anyone know what she's talking about?

Maybe something like pic related - odd cat6... But more likely she doesn't know what she's talking about.

Might be RS422 or RS232?
Or a console cable?
Tell the dumb cunt to use her camera phone for more than just taking selfies.

How professional does a portfolio website have to look if you are not a designer?
What to write in latest projects and relevant work experience when you got none?

This doesn't deserve a thread and Jow Forums threads aren't worth dying for brainlets like me. Why do links like this my.mixtape.moe/zjbdaj.webm get blocked as a trojan? What's the scheme or is it just the file looking like something and acting in another way or????

Not sure what the link is but presumably something fucking stupid got it from a friend and got a malware detection.

Looks clean to me, what software is tripping it?

Maybe it just overloaded with cringe, or my.mixtape.moe got too many reports for other files.

I deleted it and now I can boot the flashdrive installer, but I've tried twice and it gets most of the way through then crashes to this screen

I use a Mac but I need to run one program that is Windows only (creating patterns for a sewing machine).
I know I could use Boot Camp but wouldn't really wanna do that just for that one program.
Is there an easy VM I could slap on the Mac to quickly boot up Windows in a window when I need to make a sewing pattern?

try resetting these iosafe.com/helpdesk/kb/faq.php?id=14 and retry to install

Is Violentmonkey better than Greasemonkey?

I feel like my 4chanX have been a lot more buggy in recent months and I don't think its 4chanX fault.

What about Tampermonkey? Only thing I know is that it's supposedly closed source.

Attached: 1511623324834.png (63x64, 7K)

I use violentmonkey because I can sync scripts in the cloud. if you want to try disable your current manager, make a zip containing all your user.js files and import it into violentmonkey

can't you just install virtualbox and use that? maybe installing it on a usb drive or whatever to keep your main drive free of crap

It's not fair man. I just want to cuddle with a cute loli.
Is that too much to ask?

violent just shit itself a day ago, so I switched to tamper. but I use it for extra flags on Jow Forums idk how it performs with 4chanx

Doesn't work, it just boots to the grey crossed out circle instead of rebooting

Deep down, user, we both know you're the qt loli
So hug yourself and be happy.

malwarebytes seems like the site hosts a lot of spyware stuff after some googaloogin.

if you have a spare drive you can test on you can try using your old drive to boot into recovery mode and install macos onto a new clean drive apple.stackexchange.com/questions/173947/how-do-i-get-an-operating-system-onto-a-new-hard-drive

Buy my problem is that the installer crashes? Won't that still happen on a different drive?

I didn't touch Tampermonkey for weeks then one day I couldn't load a single website and the status bar said waiting for Tampermonkey. Had to disable it. These damn addons crap out way too randomly and unexpectedly.

I have a Hyper 212X. Is it any better than the Wraith Spectre RGB cooler the Ryzen 2700X is coming with?

trying doesn't cost anything I'm just suggesting what I would try if I had that mac in front of me. also is your mac linked via wifi or ethernet to internet?

Wifi

try using an ethernet cable

Why appchan doesn't work on Greasemonkey but on Voilentmonkey is just fine?
Also is one superior to another or it doesn't matter in the end?

What can I use to verify sha256 on windows 10?

I bought my first smartphone today, because I want two factor authentication on everything. Does anyone have any experience with two factor authentication on Paypal? Can I use some kind of app, or do I need to do the SMS thing? Do I need to receive an SMS for every time I want to pay something, or even every time I want to log in to my account? That sounds pretty costly.

Dropped my Galaxy S5 today and it proved to be the screens undoing. If i am very happy with the S5, will i be as happy/happier with the S7? Seems relatively cheap these days.

Repairing the S5 is too much of a hassle and it costs more than i want to spend on it. The camera was fucked as well, so i'm looking to upgrade.
