University seems to be blocking my server ip, any way I can confirm for sure? Other people can ping it just fine and OVH doesnt seem to be haing any problems at the moment.

what have you done? ( ・ω・)

I torrented a few linux isos but that was it lmao

Any other issues users of wincuck 1809 have noticed, other than problems while installing the update?

wew, torrent linux iso is legal, they cant just block your network lol

what if you replace your network adapter, maybe they just block physical mac address

Why does RedHat ONLY support vsftpd?
Is it really that much better than the competition?

Guy from earlier. I did download the tool people said from microsoft and I'm now on windows 10, did the format from the thing when asked. However, I did not buy it. I am not asked to buy it, not asked to insert a key or anything. It even updates.

Can someone tell me what the shit is going on? I remember it being free for a time yeah but I don't think that's still up.

Does ruTorrent RSS feed really only accepts regex to filter shit?
Like pic related, what a pain in the ass, now I have to wait until a release I want shows up to test a god damn regex instead of just writing like "Puya Souten 1080" and any proper search engine would give me the expected result.

So, I'm still using firefox 49 because there no support for a bunch of add-ons that I use in the newer versions. But now I'm actually starting to have some problems with it. Half the time when I click the captcha "I'm not a robot" box, it crashes. Also youtube videos freeze the browser for about 10 seconds half the time. Does anyone know what could be happening, and a way to fix it? I might have to update soon if I can't fix it.

What's a good way to download youtube videos? I used to use youtube center, but I think the guy stopped working on it or something.

how do I get better at reading other people's code?

My girlfriend is so cute. Too bad we can't get legally married.

do you have win7/win8 key?
as far as I know, it's still free for win7/win8 owner upgrading to win10.
do you enter your key when install it? you can call microsoft to solve this problem

If I register a new Windows key, does it sort of unregister the previously used key?
My boyfriend gave me a spare 8.1 Pro key, where I previously had a Basic/Home key.
I don't plan on reselling/reusing the Basic/Home key, just wanted to know whether it'd unregister it or something.

the fix is to find new, compatible replacements for all those addons
or move to palemoon

what's the problem here, exactly? just write a regex that matches what you want
if you don't know how to use regexen you should not be browsing Jow Forums

lolis are technology

Attached: 1496891241270.png (861x889, 853K)

Last time I looked, there were no replacements. Same with palemoon. I'll check again, I guess.

Anybody else just buy domains and basically never use them?
>Just bought another one.
>Have so many plans for what I want to do with them
>Never starts on the design/coding

I'm saying that using a regex for that is stupid, because simple term search would be more intuitive and more than enough for RSS feeds and regexes are naturally more prone to error.
And because the entry I'm looking for is not in the feed, I can't actually know the regex is right or not until a few days from now I find out that it did or did now download as expected.
inb4 "my regexes are always right just git gud lol"

microsoft keys never "unregister" once registered.

Is WTFast safe to use / private?

Aw shoot... Oh well, not using it anymore, was just wondering if I could pass it off to a friend if they wanted a legitimate Windows key.
Thanks for the response!

Mon bought an Aspire ES1-132-C06L that came without the hdd cradle, screws or cable
Could anyone tell me the sizes of the screws in pic related?

Yup.
>buy domain to host dumb meme projects

Maybe one day someone will purchase the domain from me. $20 a year is nothing for some internet names

Can anyone recommend a good, decently priced PMP that can do audio AND video? Preferably something that has no wireless connectivity functions, except maybe bluetooth. My iPod Classic's battery is beginning to die and the screen is scratched, and the cost of replacing both might be more expensive than buying something else.

how do i download all videos from a channel on youtube using youtube-dl?

that's an extremely simple regex to write so unless you have some problems with basic regex concepts it shouldn't be hard to get it right on the first try

i want to upgrade my home computer. my parents use it guests use it etc, nothing heavy. i was thinking of getting the basic mac mini. they aren't super computer literate so i think this would be a good option. i need something that just werks

A cellphone with a micro SD slot.

Not sure about youtube-dl, probably wait for someone knowledgeable to come along and help there, but another option is JDownloader, if you don't mind me suggesting something.

Is there a difference between a monitor with a max res of 1366x768 and a 1920x1080 monitor running at 1366x768? In terms of anything but mainly power consumption

Have a prebuilt PC that's out of warranty, had to replace the no-name power supply with an EVGA GQ 650W and it's been fine until now. It won't show video bu the fans will be on and not slow down and I'm getting no beep codes from the motherboard speaker. The motherboard is a ASRock H110M-DS Hyper which doesn't look like it was for sale since it was able to overclock non-K CPUs but the board looks weak and idles when playing gaymes it would get to 50-60c. No idea if the motherboard is dead or if if the graphics card.
TL;DR Prebult PC is dead, don't know which part died.

>cellphone
>no wireless connectivity
pick one

What's the best >=4tb HDD?

What's the best >=512gb SSD?

I know nothing about RAIDS or how to organize my drives, should I bother with a particular setup?
I'm replacing 3-4 HDDs all in various states of age

>What's the best >=4tb HDD?
Sort by price in desired capacity and RPM.

>What's the best >=512gb SSD?
Depends how you define best.

>I know nothing about RAIDS or how to organize my drives, should I bother with a particular setup?
Maybe, do you need redundancy or higher performance than standard?

1366x768 will look worse on the 1920x1080 monitor than the native 1366x768 monitor

I'm interested in this as well. Need a decently sized ipod replacement to keep hooked up to the car. Seems to work properly with any folder based device

Purely best? Intel Optane 905P
Best for price? Either Samsung 860 Pro or Crucial MX500
Admittedly, even something like a WD Blue is decent for the price.
You could even get something like an ADATA SX6000/7000/8000 (NVMe), which are pretty good NVMe drives for the prices.
SSDs have beendropping in price quite a bit, lately, so it's a pretty good time to buy into one.

she's a suckibus, not incubus.

I assume because it's stretched?

Is anyone aware of a 15.6" monitor? I've searched high and low for one and have basically come to the conclusion that they don't and exist and I'll have to DIY a laptop panel. I'd rather not have to do that, as fun as it sounds.

Is it even possible to safely crack a program without botnetting yourself?
Where does one go to get safe cracks?

>Could anyone tell me the sizes of the screws in pic related?
They're two different sizes. Best bet is to get a kit like this
amazon.com/Notebook-Computer-Samsung-Toshiba-Gateway/dp/B01FTI8TM8/
They have cheaper kits with fewer pieces.

>no wireless connectivity functions, except maybe bluetooth
Put it in airplane mode faggot.

You mean it doesn't have the dicc?
sad ;(

Not sure. I'm fairly certain you can download an entire playlist though, so if the creator has their content neatly organized into playlists (or even better, has a playlist of all their uploads), you can try using those to make the process easier.

>airplane mode
do you actually believe that crap? also why should i pay for wireless functions if I'm just going to disable it anyways?

You can buy laptop panels. Check ebay and alibaba.

>I'd rather not have to do that, as fun as it sounds.
I know I can, I just wanted to know if anyone had any viable alternatives or expericens with them. It would be used as a secondary monitor in portait orientation aside a 27" monitor.

>do you actually believe that crap? also why should i pay for wireless functions if I'm just going to disable it anyways?
Take the SIM out you dumb fuck. OP said he wanted bluetooth. You're not going to find a small media player that plays video and has bluetooth for cheaper than a low-end or refurbished android phone.
You fucks on this site do this constantly. You just argue dumb shit, ignoring reality, and the OPs question. Get a life you dumb fucks. It's not even trolling, you're just all underage gaming retards trying to be muh haxxor and shit, brogramming meme.

>It would be used as a secondary monitor in portait orientation
Are you just trying to do this so it is close to the same height as the 27"?
What are you planning on using it for?
If you can get past the height difference, I'd recommend a 29" 2560x1080 monitor in portrait mode. Makes shitposting here a dream.

You don't know what either of those words mean.

incubus is a guy, faggot.

Thanks for proving my point.

i think the problem with my text rendering is i don't have the correct font installed, but i don't know what font is used in this pdf, any help?

Attached: 2018-10-30-214450_1600x900_scrot.png (1600x900, 205K)

I'd honestly rather just spend the $500 to get another S2716D than get over the height difference.

basically yes, the monitor has to rescale the image to fit your display and you end up with a worse looking image because of the pixel density.

>also why should i pay for wireless functions if I'm just going to disable it anyways?
A refurbished marshmallow phone will set you back $10.

A 64GB SD card maybe another $15.

So you've got a 64GB bluetooth capable audio/video player for a total of $25 (okay, +S&H/tax).

Turn off the wireless, if you really want to for some reason - button to do so is right at the top. If you aren't paying for a data plan, it isn't going to auto-connect anyways.

>tracfone
One caveat may be that those tracfone's often will not let you at the OS screen without purchasing a plan and activating the SIM card (sans hacks)... Though I suppose you could buy the $25 plan and just cancel - still cheaper than buying a dedicated portable AV player. And there's other phones in that range that don't have that initial hurdle.

See if you have a tech place and ask them if they do screen replacements for monitors.

just get an ipod touch desu. you can download VLC and run whatever type of video you want, and it doesnt have cellular, only wifi. you can even jailbreak it too. that or get your current shit repaired, but classic's are notoriously finnicky to open and work with.

okay, found pdffonts and fixed it

Thanks for coming back and telling us how ya fixed it - think I've run into that before, though it's been awhile, and I just chalked it up to "fuck it".

this is henreader, right?

Is a HDD/SSD combo still a good idea in 2018? I'm looking to buy a new computer and want to future proof it, I'm willing to wait and save up to get something decent but I don't if I should get a boot drive combo or just a SSD

SSD's are cheap enough that you could go with just those, but at the same time, HDD's are now so large that software developer's are going to keep that in mind, and we'll see more games with entirely uncooked files like ARK. So if you wanna future proof, get both and get em both big. (But keep in mind that the 8TB HDD's are still notoriously unreliable.)

Nope. That's not a problem if I only go to youtube, and Jow Forums though, right?

check a diff of the crack in against the original binary in ida pro if you're that paranoid. well known scene release groups' stuff is usually clean, they do it for the autism competition

for cost to performance it's been a good idea. SSD for boot drive and important applications, HDD for mass storage.

Are there any little keyboard / touchpad combos like this available that support bluetooth AND 2.4ghz? Is that possible? I like the reliability and ease of 2.4ghz wireless but also i want to be able to use it on my phone from time to time. If you have one / know of a good one pls rec me one, thanks

Can't you just try?

why does booting win7 in safe mode scare me so much
fuck

Would this DEVILISH plan work? I have a router with OpenWRT so I can create multiple APs. Now I'm thinking of doing a scan for SSID+MAC and then create APs with matching SSID+MAC. Would this fuck up the wireless connectivity for my neighbors?

Attached: 1522642139077.gif (425x481, 1.51M)

Yeah, i think I'm just going to get both. I'm kind of old fashion and like the idea of the disk storage. Kind of irrational but whatever

>I'm still using firefox 49 because there no support for a bunch of add-ons that I use in the newer versions.
Waterfox.

Trying to install cinnamon on an old win7 laptop; in my foolish youth I downloaded the free win10 trial on it but rolled it back. I suspect there’s still some trace of the installation on the hard drive, and when I try to boot from an external drive I get a win10 BSOD.
Would formatting the HDD get rid of it? Is there another way?

You'll have to scrub the UEFI partition.

It's called a table. You should use Qt if you want to write a GUI.

I suggest using python bindings unless you're comfortable with C++, desu though QtCreator trivializes using Qt since the API is intuitive.

How pozzed is Win10 and how up to date is this guide for unfucking it? wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/Windows_10

To answer your question; it's called a table header.

Just about to the point of unusability, which, for me at least, is a much bigger problem than the botnet factor. Live patches that delete masses of files have also become a thing (resulting in the death of my favorite guild's servers). If you have a monthly bandwidth cap, forget about the OS entirely.

You can't unfuck it entirely with any traditional install and you certainly can't let it update itself, though there is the Windows AME option - but it kinda removes the one benefit the OS offers (ie. DX12).

The only constant thing learning about technology has taught me is that no one actually knows anything about technology.

I just bought a Motorola G6. I'm trying to put a T-Mobile SIM card into it but the phone won't recognize the card. I've already tried putting it in/taking it out several times. I've checked that the phone supports T-Mobile (it does). What else can I do to try and have the phone recognize the SIM card? The phone recognizes the SD card with no issues.

Pic related is what it looks like when I insert the SD/SIM

I want to convert some large video files to HEVC to lower the file sizes. Whats the best way to do so without sacrificing too much of the audio and video quality?
