I have an i5-2500K, i7-3520M (both with QuickSync capable GPUs) and an RX 480. How do I convert ~1TB of high bitrate 1080p 8bit anime to slightly lower bitrate without it taking several months.

oh, and also without completely gimping the quality

Are they both available for use 24/7? Check the Passmark scores for both. The difference will tell you the difference in time scaled for however you plan on encoding them.

are there any alternatives to lucky patcher? I want to patch my drastic emulator but lucky patcher can't remove the license verification at all

I was interested in pic related for the screen and portability but it's vastly overpriced now, especially in Europe. I'm not paying €1800 for chinkshit, even if it's supposedly quality chinkshit. What are some similar options that offer the same perks that are more affordable for Europoors? It's surprisingly difficult to find a laptop that isn't either a heavy ass 15.6" beast, or some 13.3" 16:9 fisher price toy where you need binoculars to see the fucking screen, and you almost always have to go with the dullest 1080p display available to get usable battery life out of them.

It is not your wife and it is definitely not cute. Seek help.

So, who is the current artist of the /sqt/ cropped lolis?

is there such a thing nowadays as a cheap heart rate monitor with chest strap that does not require a smartphone for setup?

alternatively, is there a heart rate monitor with chest strap that tracks heart rate variability but does not require a smartphone at any price?

30 crops or artists?
Can I suggest artists somehow?

Crops. It's one of my favorite artists, just because most of his work is in color.
I'm always open to recommendations. I likely have most of what would be recommended, my collection is quite large, just incase a couple sites go down, I can host one quickly.

Well, focke wulf has a nice recognizable artstyle.

I'm using Combined Community Codec Pack and the attached MPC-HC to watch anime and everything else but it hasn't been updated for 3 years. Are there other alternatives? A long time ago K-Lite and VLC were shit. Has anything changed?

With GitLab, is there a way to link a commit with an issue after the fact?

If I active Windows 10 2019 LTSC with HWIDGEN can I reinstall it without running it again?

Can't delete the post, but I figured it out. It's as simple as referencing the commit in a comment on the issue.

bump got no answers last thread

Just test it.
Use speedtest to check your ping, turn off/on the VPN, test again.

If it's going to take 15+ minutes to unzip around 650MB on a solid state drive (I think eMMC) is that a sign my drive is dying? Because shit has been bluescreening quite a lot these last few months as well.

Is google drive broken for anyone else in firefox? Nothing will DL. I tried disabling all adblockers and still nothing. Even tried through tor. Nothing. It seems like cookies aren't being set, since it used to have a drive.google.com cookie generate, but now doesn't and so I'm guessing it just loops.

Hi Jow Forums.
We all hoard porn.
I found that annoying and want to get rid of my pictures .
However i am having problem.
I want to "backup" them by making a simple catalog.
Some text and one or two example pictures OR just links to sannaku/rule 34 with info on kinks and maybe short comment.
SO i am looking of some kind of way to catalog artists depending on type of art, main kink and sub kinks.
Some way to do that in clean simple way that would allow me to add future artists in a few clicks.
Should i write it in html ? or maybe there is app that can do this for me ?

Or maybe just cleaver way of doing this in notepad/exel ?

can I use a vpn instead of a dyn dns? do vpns use the same ip every time? they share an ip per region but are they truly static or just masked?

It seems to me that nobody in the CS classes would ever question statements from the teacher, but they would question statements from other students.
Is there a term for this phenomenon?

Uhhh, could you send a link to a guide on how to configure those programs to work together?

I use Resilio Sync (filesharing/torrent), and Google Docs for my small business. I want to get some Chinese customers now, but they say they need help to pass the Great Fire Wall. How can we do that?

What router should I buy? I need one and I have no idea where to start with buying one.

playing safe?

This but with Pot player

that makes sense for an individual, but the phenomenon is that all the students do that

all the students are huge faggots who dont dare to angry the prof

Would it be a bad idea to use a SDXC card to store porn and video? (Lots of deleting and rewriting)

Can someone with matlab make a .m of this script? Mine expired and I need to submit this,

>Upgrading my pc
>Current pc got almost 3 drives filled with random shit
Should i just upgrade (cpu/motherboard/ram) and continue on this one, which runs windows 7? Or buy new hdd's/ssd and start from scratch on windows 10?

potplayer is fucking garbage

Still a clear upgrade after using mpchc for years

Aren't .m files literally just saved as text? Just change the file extension?

write it in octave
If you want I can check if your solution runs on matlab as well

Does it offer anything besides shitty ricer skins?

Is there any good rule34.xxx app?

I switched to windows 10, every 5 seconds I will try to do something, pc will stop and I hear the hard drive spinning and then everything continues. Well, I think I stopped it by setting the “turn off hard drive” thing to never.

Is this ok or am I asking for trouble? I never had this problem with 7 so I’m guessing it’s fine.

i'm trying to get an hdmi adapter for this tablet display to use as a second display (for comunications when gaming or watching porn while working idk), i know in aliexpress and some chink webs there are displays like this with adapters and controler boards but i dont need an other display, so

I'm considering getting an 27QHD monitor and while browsing specs on Amazon I noticed that the actual physical screen resolution is something totally different than the max display res - for example for Dell U2715H its said to be 1920 x 2100. I might be stupid, but shoudnt it be QHD as well? What's the native resolution of such screen, the one that gives the sharpest image? Or, to put it short - does it really matter in everyday use?

Ribbon cables and control boards are often application-specific

Also nice fucking picture, bro

I'm thinking about building a smart mirror is a normal spare monitor good enough as a display or will it be too thick?

so maybe if i found the model of the pannel i could get something?

thanks, y'know, i'm a photografer not a tech enthusiast trying to get something done

Which of these laptops should I buy?

I have firefox start with all tabs it had when I closed it last time but they aren't reloaded until I click on them, how to have them reload on startup so I don't have to do it manually?

What VPNs would work on 2chan? They have everything I've tried so far. I went from obscure VPNs to paid NordVPN and ExpressVpn, but in case of these two, the error message wasn't that I was using a proxy, but that I wasn't using a jp IP. I tested for leaks, and it was only showing a jp IP address. How the fuck did they know?

How loud should my mic be for online gaming?
I use a mixer and some people complain that it's too low and others complain it's too loud.

I've decided to go the autistic audition route, but I'm not sure what level I should be limiting to. Is -10db safe enough?

mod rewrite is driving me crazy.
I want to forward everything one folder deeper, make one level invisible so to speak, but I keep getting errors or unexpected behavior.
Is it possible? maybe someone can give some tips.
This is the folder structure:
/www/application/app-root/public-files
/www is the webroot, /application is the subfolder the application resides in, but the actual content is in /public-files.
So if anyone goes to www.somedomain.com/application/ he should get the index.hml in /public-files.
Shouldn't be hard to do I though, but I can't get it to work.

Is finding your account manager on Instagram and having her send you pictures of her feet in exchange for upgrading your services with her company illegal?

It's my barracuda rep if that matters.

*forget /app-root it's redundant

Switch to nginx.

Are OEM audio drivers fine tuned for the specific laptop model or are Windows drivers of similar quality? Are audio filters included in the OEM drivers implemented in software or hardware? Drivers for my laptop are full of audio enhancements and Dolby stuff.

How do you bind f25-f35 on windows? I found a script to bind f13-f24 via autohotkey but changing the script to use f25-f35 didnt work. How else can you bind these keys?

Idk if you're using apache, but it's pretty easy to re-write urls with htaccess files

they only go up to 24.
see docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/inputdev/virtual-key-codes

I just need the keysyms to bind on linux, which goes to 35.
Using control,alt,win,shift didnt generate a new keysym so im out of ideas of what keys to use.

Any way to change icons "globally" on Windows so it matches the aesthetics and look of the whole operating system? I'm thinking icons i.e. on the taskbar and title bar like picture related.

Does a 100% offline security camera system exist? Everything on Amazon seems to require a network

Get a camera with a usb and wire it up.

Any loonix distro that supports old clover trail tablets with digitizers?

I'm trying to use one for that purpose but I gotta choose between Windows 8.1 and 10, and they're mighty fucking slow.

I have a 65" lg C8. It looks fantastic usually but it has an issue with adjusting brightness when there is too much white or other bright colors. If i return it watch should i get instead?

make your own network?

There is no internet at the property I want to setup cameras

>100% offline
Just use one with a coax or has a wireless video feed.

How are people pirating things these days? Like software/vsts? Most torrent sites are just husks of what they used to be. Are there invite only/subscription sites that are the standard? Usually if I use duckduckgo I can find torrents of some things, but its limited sometimes.

What are the most powerful processors that can currently be librebooted?

Really reaching for ideas. Anyone?

What are you trying to do? You are on windows (which has no F keys beyond 24) and you're trying to send linux keys to it?
Are you running it in a VM? What's the setup?

Most of the criminals who have been doing it for a while got into private trackers. Investing in seedbox and trading invite only communities back and forth until they get invited to the community with the stuff the actually want (software is probably in gfxpeers or cgpersia). Brainlets have moved entirely to streaming now that 720 piracy streams are easily available on google search. A lot of mainstream content still gets seeded on sites like 1337x and nyaa pantsu cat. ISPs and rightscorp emails have pushed pirates to pay for VPNs.

any KDE fags in here? How do I get rid of this thing? It's completely redundant and I don't even use activities

Try using a magnet search engine, something like en.btbit.cc.
Just be sure to use a VPN when torrenting.

I have a logitech g600mmo mouse that has 12 physical bindable keys on the side. I have bound the 12 side buttons to f13-24.It has a hardware switch that enables you to bind then entire set of keys again, for 24 bindable options The software only works in windows,so im using an old laptop to bind the keys and then using xmodmap to bind the keysyms to f13-35. I need separate keysms for the hardware switch to enable the use. I tried using control/alt/win/shift and f13-f24 but it does not generate a separate new keysym when pressed(Using xev to find keysysm on linux).
I dont know of any other keys but f25-f35 that i can bind that 1. does not remove the use of the keyboard keys on a standard 105 key keyboard 2. generates a separate keysym that i can bind too.
I need to use windows/autohotkey/something else to bind the keys so they generate a unique keysym and then use xmodmap on linux to map them to the unused function keys so that i can then use xbindkeys and within the individual programs(such as gimp). I have f13-f24 successfully bound but i need the 2nd set to bind to some sort of key that dosent use the same keysym that f13-25 uses.

my nigga
my mouse only has 5 extra keys but I love the convenience of copying/pasting and closing applications with a single click
may I ask what you're using your extra buttons for?

Is there an app for Android that allows me to 'deactivate' apps until I enable them again, while saving notifications for when I enable them? It will be used for work, to disable shit like Facebook, Youtube etc so they don't bother me.

Also, I know about AppBlock but it doesn't stop the app from running making it drain my battery. It need to be completely shut down.

you don't need internet to set up a LAN

I have alot of shit bound for gimp. like different macros i use and mostly layer functions.
Systemwide I have audio controls on the bottom 3(mute,lower,raise), i have the first button open dmenu,second button opens a terminal,three opens the filemanager, 4 sends control+s in the focused window,5 sends control+f,6 sends control+w
In specific programs 1 is previous 2 is next 4 is zoom in 5 is zoom out 6 is zoom 1:1.
I want to use the hardware switch for more lesser used commands, and even opening specific programs that dont reallly need to be on the main set.

that sounds awesome, though personally, for zooming I use the mouse button I bound to CTRL + scroll wheel.
I love the idea of having hardware buttons for macros. I think I'm going to dedicate my numpad to some cool scripts, once I think of some.

adblock has started blocking webms on me.
anyone know why?

Has anyone else noticed that Firefox Nightly doesn't want to download stuff anymore after a recent update, or is it just me?
