>inb4 windows10 Fuck it, i need for shit and stuff: My problem is twofold: 1) i can't seem to be able to use the right click file->properties->open with->choose program to actually SET A FUCKING DEFAULT, i managed to get it working for Notepad++ through extensive fuckery but i'd like to not have to repeat the experience for every single file 2) I also managed to get 7z to open a tar.gz, problem, the icon looks like pic related, i'd like it to be the 7z icon, how to without downloading extra stuff possibly?
i need to install SP1 on my W7 but i want to avoid any patches like telemetry. i once saw a list of what to not install. also does chewWGA works on SP1 and if not which activator would Jow Forums recommend?

find some registry expert who will write the proper registry fixes for file associacions, which then you can set on autostart so the registry will be updated every time you start your OS

Are sites able to track users' sexual orientation? I've seen those porn site infographics that show "Women's top searches" but I'm always suspicious because I think lesbian/bi women are more likely to go to porn sites. I'm curious what kind of porn straight women watch, although I know it's rare for them to watch porn.
Well Pornhub actually does have a field for "Interested in", so yeah they can track that.
Eli Jackson
(Not that user) I'm assuming that what you say is a thing you can put in your profile, with a registered account. Most porn consumers probably don't have an account, much less a properly set-up one. So if you make statistics from that data, you are already looking at a very specific demographic (people who consume lots of porn in a hobby-like manner). It is not very rigorous to consider the results a representation of the average masturbator.

Why do all monitors have bezels? Even the """""bezel-less""""" monitors just replace the bezel with a black glass border. Why can't we have edge-to-edge screens?

my pc is broken, fx 6350, when i use all cores temps go too high and it shuts down, already tried underclocking but it happens even on 3ghz settings, any idea what could it be? cant compile shit if i use -j or even install sims from fitgirl. also thinking about upgrading to something newer, whats the cheap modern cpu? worth buying second hand? any recommendations? no intel shit pls
check your cooler and thermal paste. improper mounting/sloppy paste application = high temps.

Just how fucking much voltage do I put on my dd4 ram to make it stable? It's such a small ass OC, from 2400 to 2666mhz. Yet it's still not stable when adding 0.110v. The hell? I know for sure it's not my CPU at all (an R1600) since it's stable as fuck with the default ram speed.

What's the point of a sound card?
Dylan Bell
Absolutely nothing. A cheap ass dac + amp combo will have a much better sound quality simply because the chips will be outside of the case, not to mention the huge benefit of having a physical volume knob.
Jason Baker
Check the timings. You usually have to raise them too, along the voltage. Which can translate in a loss of performance, so you have to carefully benchmark different configurations. With CPU you might be able to push OCs as much as the temperatures allow you, but it does not work the same with RAM. All to the max is not necessarily the best you can get in terms of performance..

my stupid question: how do i put a win xp installer iso on a blank external? im swapping an HDD for an SSD but i dont know how to put windows on it to boot. I have the iso installer that i've used as a virtual machine setup but i dont know how to use it in the real world. ive never done it so im unsure.
Charles Morales
You can't just "put it on the drive" You have to flash to a USB or burn to a CD. I don't know if there's any specific weirdness you have to do for Windows, but I imagine it works the same way as anything else. You use something like Rufus to put it on a flash drive, boot off the flash drive, and then install the OS to the SSD from there. Try this: rufus.ie/en_IE.html
hes a cute boy
Asher Mitchell
Thanks., I'll try going higher clock with just a bit more timings

How do I make qbittorent download each torrent in sequential order and first and last pieces first automatically?
Trying to repair my corrupted Sandisk SD microsd. I used a program to find bad sectors, but repairing them won't work. I also tried cleaning it with diskpart but I get a cyclic redundancy error every time. I read that I should create a new partition with the specific bad sectors only and hide it, but I don't know how to do that. I could get another for cheap but this has become more of a challenge to me than anything.
You can use the batch mode but its currently broken since the facebook scandal. You can only load 200 pieces of media per 3 hours.Instaloader does not store what media it was downloading so you have to start from the beginning and download what you already have. Currently the developer doesn't seem to know how to or dosent want to fix this issue.

Are Android Pie custom ROMs stable yet? I want to try Pie on my Nexus 5X, but I'm not sure if the ROMs on XDA are better than something like the upcoming LineageOS 16.0.
Julian Morris
Damn that sucks. 4kstogram still working for me without any limits but I want to get rid of proprietary software.
Cooper Cox
Lineage is bloat. Honestly stock rooted rom + custom kernel is all you really need.
Kayden Wilson
Hello CS anons, some networking questions. Im trying to implement a port knocking protocol and I just want to be sure I understand the theory behind it.
So I:
1) Have a server that listens on multiple ports
2) if the same client address tries to connect to the closed ports in the correct sequence, determined by the server, then it opens the main port and allows connections to the server -question here, does this mean the server allows only the client that made the knock sequence or does this mean anyone with a history is allowed in or is everyone allowed in?
William Phillips
Well Google isn't going to develop Pie for the Nexus 5X, so I have to go the custom ROM route if I want Pie. I'm just seeing more Pie ROMs on XDA for my device, and I'm wondering about their stability over LOS.
Check if there are other roms that provide the stock rom without all that bloat built in to it
> I'm wondering about their stability over LOS. They'd be the same, they are all based on AOSP or AICP,just with layers and layers of "features" thrown in to the mix. The more "features" you have the most unstable its going to be.
Michael Hill
Most I've seen are based on AOSP. I'm just worried because the first custom Pie ROM I tried was one based on the Pixel 2's stock firmware. I don't know if I was being retarded or something, but I ran into this fatal bug in the ROM and had problems with TWRP not being able to decrypt my data partition. That experience kind of scared me off custom ROMs except LOS, so I don't know if I should try other Pie ROMs.
Sebastian Torres
>problems with TWRP not being able to decrypt my data partition. That was a TWRP problem in 3.3.1? i think it was.But twrp can now decrypt with 3.2.3 As long as you can boot recovery you can fix it
Leo Parker
Usually just the client that sent the knock sequence because it's basically the same as a plaintext password, but any of those could be called port knocking.

I got the amazon prime free month thing in the american version of the website but if I go to my country's version I don't have it despite being logged in. What jew magic trick is this? Is this how it's suppose to be?
Octopart for price search. In the States it's going to be Arrow, Digikey, Mouser, or Newark like 98% of the time.
Caleb Parker
Well, for my device, the latest TWRP version is 3.2.3. But to be more specific about what happened, I tried to switch back to LOS 15.1 after encountering that bug. The problem was that I would get this error screen (pic related) every time I rebooted my phone. I tried going back to stock, but still encountered it. That's why I was scared and wasn't sure if it was a bug with the ROM or TWRP or what.

I was running Windows 10 on my laptop with a 500GB hdd. I rolled back to Windows 7, installed onto a new ssd with the old hdd as the secondary drive and I upped the ram from 8GB to 16GB. My issue is when I try to watch a video, either on youtube or locally there's occasionally a delay before the video will start playing. On youtube the video will need to buffer up to a certain point whereas when I was using Windows 10 the video would always instantly start. Same thing when playing a video in vlc, occasionally there's a couple of seconds of delay before the video will begin where there was no delay at all on Windows 10. I'm using the same browser on both operating systems.
I have a script that makes use of MongoDB which I'm having weird problems with.
Whenever the function `initializeUnorderedBulkOp()` is called, and it has been called in say, the last ~5 minutes, it'll return `undefined`. But if the function is called and I've just restarted my PC, or at other times seemingly randomly, it just werks.
Where is the documentation around how I'm supposed to handle this? It's obviously not a connection issue I don't think, but I don't know what it could be - and documentation is VERY sparse from what I can find. Pls help

I want to use cloud-based sync services but want to encrypt everything myself on my end such that the cloud service never even knows the original exists. I can't use something like TrueCrypt of Vericrypt because then every time I change one file it will upload a 10 GB file to the cloud and I don't have that kind of bandwidth. Is there such a thing as something that creates a file system that does per-file encryption such that when I change 1 file, it only changes 1 (or possibly 2) file on t the physical system? Maybe this can't be entirely secure because if each file were encrypted independent of each other then you have the whole "pattern repetition" thing, but "sufficiently obscure" is good enough for my purposes (in case, if worse comes to worse, I suppose a simple cipher would do).
Julian Sanders
I doubt it'll be much better over SATA. t. someone running a few different external 3.0 hard drives over both SATA & USB. I have 2 exact same Seagate models, and while it may be margin of error, the SATA one has slightly better random 4k read/write

>Your passwords are stored in the key4.db and logins.json files How safe is built-in password manager of Firefox? Or is it inferior to offline password managers even while using a master password?
without a master password the passwords may as well be plaintext - although there's nothing horribly wrong with this if your computer is fairly secure with a master password the password to the encryption key is your master password + salt on a single (maybe?) iteration hash, this is.. quite insecure if your password is weak, if your password is moderately strong however like a 6-7+ word diceware password it might be considered secure enough an offline password manager *should* have a much stronger encryption method (i.e., more iterations) which will make it a superior choice if your concern is someone brute forcing your password fine after they've hacked you, however the utility of an offline password manager is secure password generation and not necessarily secure password storage - if someone has access to your computer they can do a lot more immediate harm than copying your password database and trying to brute force it

I have a project in my statistics class where I have to gather data and perform statistical analysis on it (hypothesis testing or regression analysis). What are some good Jow Forums related topics and how can I go about collecting data?
It's a critical part of the CPU. Without enough of it at the right speeds it can affect performance significantly. Imagine a brilliant physicist working like crazy on a whiteboard. He can edit his work on there 10x faster than anything else around him, so if it was a tiny whiteboard and he ran out of space and had to use a notebook with a pencil and eraser, it would slow his work way the fuck down.
That said, it's a lot like GPUs in that the amount of onboard storage is usually pretty well matched to the processing power anyway, so most of the time it's better to just look at the overall performance of the unit. You don't really gain anything by paying for a huge expensive whiteboard if you've got a slow ass dude writing on it.

cache can make some lower clocked xeons perform better than higher clocked desktop processors most modern desktop processors, especially from intel, have had barely cache improvements the past couple of years, the 2500k from 2011 had 6m and the 7700k from q1 2017 had 8m, it's only with the 8700k and 9700k that desktop processors have broken the 10m barrier with them both having 12m cache - you get improvements going from say 15m to 25m cache, not increments of 2-3m cache a generation
there's a handful of attacks you have to be wary of like bad bios but they're very niche and nobody who has the skills to do this would do this for somebody they're not targetting 100% format the drive and reinstall whatever operating system it came with though
if you can find an entry level job that accepts c you might be able to blag it if you have other non-c development skills but don't get your hopes up for now, keep working on hobby projects and reading more books
no, they're fairly evenly matched
your car/vehicle in a parking lot, couch surfing
nothing outside of ideological reasons, they sometimes leapfrog between one having a 'better' spec but there's no definitive winner hdmi is proprietary and is a shitty connector but it's the only connectors modern tvs use aside from vga so it's not going anywhere, displayport is the superior open spec but it's fairly niche
forest fires are a natural part of the ecosystem and by preventing forest fires you're just creating more tinder for the next fire that happens bad forest management is the cause of some of the larger fires

close as many running programs as you can get away with, make sure nothing is writing to disk, pull the plug or do something like this: make sure the desktop has focus by clicking any empty area of the desktop or pressing Windows+D on your keyboard. Then, press Alt+F4 to access the Shut Down Windows dialog box. To shut down without installing updates, select “Shut down” from the drop-down list. You can also shut down your PC immediately from the login screen. Press Windows+L to lock the screen, or log out. Then, in the lower-right corner of the login screen, click the power button and select “Shut down” from the popup menu. The PC will shut down without installing updates.
