What's the closest I can get to replicating FT Deep Dark in the latest version of Firefox?

I made the mistake of updating because I heard it would unfuck adblock and all of my other add-ons/extensions and now I'm stuck coping with this hideous looking bullshit for the time being. If anyone has the Deep Dark theme file lying around and would be willing to upload it that'd be great too since I wouldn't mind downgrading and finding a workaround instead either. I can't find that shit online anymore because Mozilla took it down from their add-ons site.

try installing libpng

overdodactyl.github.io/ShadowFox/

>posting guro thumbnail
Well at least it's not shota shit.

I made a new Google play account, which went fine, no problems.

The only issue is it doesn't recognize any apps I've got installed? I guess cause I installed then when using my older account?

Is there a way of fixing that? Or do I have to reinstall every app

Tried reinstalling libpng16-16. No change.

try libpng12

some apps have a sign-in option, especially if they have trophies.

I installed libpng12-0, still no change. Still had libpng16-16 though. Not sure if it matters.

idk. there are issues on their github page that match your error message. the solution they give is to install libpng, but all the posters are running ubuntu. The emu build for ubuntu is compiled using libpng12. So the version from opensuse might be using a different version of libpng, or your issue might be something totally different.
can you build it from source?

don't

>can you build it from source?
Honestly, I would rather not. If it's being worked on I'll just hope for a solution in a future update.

Where did you find the similar issues btw?

Thank you so much for this. I still gotta mess around with max-min-close buttons, but this looks 10 times better already.

I did try to downgrade (didn't work) libmupen64plus2, but now that I checked to see what versions are available in the repo, it's only the newest one. Dang.

Checking the history, the previous version (last working one I think) installed was 2.5-2.22. Version number then changed completely to 2.5.9-1.1. I'm on 2.5.9-1.2 now.

you're using m64py front-end right?
their github has the same issue, but on windows (if that's relevant). github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-ui-python/issues/145
Maybe you can downgrade m64py?
does the commandline mupen64plus work, without the m64py frontend?

What do you call the sheet of plastic that comes in a laptop's 2.5' internal hdd that covers up the circuit board? Can I go without using one?

Seems previous versions of stuff aren't available on the openSUSE Emulators repo, but yeah, the issue is on both the front end and terminal. m64py will complain about not finding the core library and on the terminal it complains about some hex value in libmupen64plus2.

When browsing for the library file in m64py however, I can see the link to libmupen64plus.so.2.0.0, but not the actual library file itself. It's there if I go check in the terminal or file explorer, but it seems the actual library itself is not recognized.

It looks like a binary file of some kind, but what is needed to actually read it? Am I missing some path to whatever language it is compiled in?

you're probably not going to see it in the file select menu because it's looking for .so.2 files. You could probably see it if you change "Types of file" to all at the bottom of the file select dialog.
the links to libraries with .so.2 or whatever are nothing special, a lot of libraries do that to control versions.

m64py uses qt, python and shit, not to mention all the libraries mupen64 uses. so it could be just a mismatch of libaries used between any of those components.

the original error message of "undefined" signal suggest that something was compiled with a different library in mind.

I just tried rebuilding the source rpm (mupen64plus) from the repo, but it complains about failed dependencies: freetype2, libpng, samplerate, sdl2. All of which are provided by some differently named package.

This smells like the source of the issue. Guess I should create an issue on Github or something. Report to the package maintainer? I dunno.

yeah post to your distro's package maintainer first.

so doko.moe used to be around for sending files around 50mb~, what is there now? slow connection speed on both ends need some kind of host

I'm creating a stopwatch that stops after hearing a clap. My first function with the stopwatch object should call the second function, draw, and return once the volume gets higher than a certain threshold. But it doesn't seem to return and stop the stopwatch after a clap. Can anyone tell what I'm doing wrong in my code? I hope it's really obvious.


function callStopwatch() {
var watch = new Stopwatch(timer);
watch.start();
if(draw()){
watch.stop();
}
}

function draw() {
let flag = false;
var vol = mic.getLevel();
if(vol > 0.2){
console.log("true"); //created to check whether sound detection is working
flag = true;
}
return flag;
}

Pls respond

i don't know almost anything about js but are you shadowing another draw function? That's a pretty common name.

Should have said it was JS at the beginning, sorry. Didn't work when I renamed draw to asdfasdf. I'm looking into callback functions to see if I could implement my two functions that way. I think I'm just misunderstanding function scope somehow. Thanks for the input user

recently my wifi card has been acting slower. its a dual band tplink one. on both bands im maxing out at 25mbit instead of 50, and often im getting only 10mbit. I dont think its a distance issue and theres no additional interferrance. is there anything that could be causing it except a faulty card? desu i hate wifi but it beats running an ethernet cable through the house

Don't know about your wireless card problem, but have you thought of powerline ethernet?

Photoshop's gif making ability is pretty good although it does take a little while to learn.

So my wireless mouse receiver stops working whenever I unplug it and try to use a different mouse. I try to restart the computer and it takes a few minutes to shut down before I get a Driver_Power_State_Error BSOD. Once I restart the computer with the receiver in, the mouse works perfectly.

I am a raging autist who refuses to upgrade my old about to die HDD or upgrade from Windows 7. What do I do?

Don't know shit about JS but how is the function gonna stop anything if you aren't checking every frame? From what I can see that code will only stop the watch as it's being created, not after.

What's my best option? Yes I'm a windows cuck.

Pretty much everything supports MP4 and most big browsers support WebM (you'll just alienate IE and Safari users).
The most common video coding formats MP4 supports are AVC, HEVC and AV1. For WebM it's VP8, VP9 and AV1.
>AVC
The king for high bitrate encodes (not that good for low ones). Best compatibility.
>HEVC
Currently the best option for low to moderate bitrates. Unfortunately nothing but Safari supports it by default.
>VP8
It's shit. Don't bother.
>VP9
Worse than HEVC (mainly because libvpx is a shit encoder; haven't tried SVT-VP9 yet), but better than AVC for low to moderate bitrates and in contrast to HEVC it's supported by most big browsers.
>AV1
Currently provides the best compression, but it's still far too soon to be usable. Even though it already has great browser support for its age (FF, Chrome and some of their derivatives), encoding is still slow and there's no hardware support yet.

To summarize: Use WebM with VP9 if you really want to crush the bitrate or MP4 with AVC for best compatibility.

I'm kind of retarded but I can't work out how to load thinkpad-acpi (using Arch) or get ThinkFan working. Using a T420, anyone had experice with this/know how to get it going?

If those are really your only criteria, you might as well use Chrome.

Chrome, Chrome forks, Vivaldi...

well its a hinge and display frame, go look on ebay. if you can find the parts, then its just patience.

Ive got 4x 120mm fans
2 x front case fans
1x rear case fan
1x heatsink fan

I have some 2x1 pwm fan splitters.

Obviously I put the 2 front case fans into CHA_FAN2 using the splitter.

Should i use a fan splitter on both the heatsink and rear case fan and plug them into CPU_FAN? or do I keep the rear and heatsink fans seperate? If so, which fan header should I use to maximize cable cleanliness?

Attached: mobofans.png (724x869, 88K)

cpu opt usually has a seperate pwm profile. just plug them all in in any config.

just get a thing like this: amazon.co.uk/DEEPCOOL-FH-10-Integrated-Controller-Motherboard/dp/B077YHLDSP/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=deepcool fh-10&qid=1555960833&s=gateway&sr=8-1

fuck splitters.
need to route one cable to the controller, then all case fans go into that.

HOW FUCKING POOR CAN YOU GET?

Also I have two, one in each PC, never had any issues with them in 2 years. Not sure what you are smoking user...

>aio
probably the aio ramping up or pump noise or an air bubble or a cable or something.
"help my car is making a noise"

$20 for this vs $4 for 2 splitter cables or $3 for a 3 way cable. waste your money as much as you want

> get long ass splitter cables
> get pwm fan cable extenders
> run it all behind the PC
> built a cobbled mess

I mean, it's up to him of course. But it's a great solution for folks who can afford 20$. I mean if you have any proper fans like Noctua, 20$ won't make a dent.

its not about being poor, youre missing the point completely. dont waste money where you dont need to. If you had noctua fans youd already have a splitter cable. If you cant cable manage thats a different problem altogether

I have an old 3.5" diskette which was originally I believe formatted for something called an "Acorn" computer, although I may be wrong because it was also used in a digital camera that allowed you to insert the diskette. This was circa 1997. The diskette has been kept dry and as far as I'm aware hasn't been around anything like a magnet. Should I assume that the data is gone by now though, being 2019? Or is it possibly on there? How would I get the data off (I believe they were photos I took in school), if I really wanted to?

Been using Chromium, where opening bookmarks works like this
