My PC turns on every time I turn it off. It turns on even when the power saving turns it off. It's not related to Wake On LAN (I tested it).

What should I do?

Freelancers here? A potential client reached to me to enhance his Wordpress, as expected: it's a complete mess, tons of plugins with shitty JS, the homepage is 31MB and the JS has a parsing time of 37 seconds, images of 4MB, 141 pages of madness with insanely weird stuff (a whole page designed within a slider editor, he expects me to make it responsive).

How do I politely tell him no? Should I take the opportunity and risk a complete rework?

How do I get into ASM?

4chanX doesn't show me my correct local time, it's 2 hours behind. Is there an easy way to fix this or do I have to submit it as an issue to the devs?

finally, an sqt without a pedophilic op

at last

For how much?

Check this out homie:

You guys should make the thread, just like I did. Before weebs attacks.

Did you try turning it off then back on again?

I was thinking of asking my usual rate (350 euros per day), he has the money, but I'm not sure it's worth my mental sanity.

Yes. It turns on normally. But what is the point? My goal is to turn it of and make it stay off.

Is there one of those thing better than the other?

>per day
How many hours?

8 hours, after taxes that's roughly 34 euros per hour, that's not bad in my country.

That priest only wanted to love you and you're sending him to jail.
Who's the real monster here, user?

There's nothing wrong with being a pedophile.

Except there's FUCKING EVERYTHING WRONG WITH BEING A FUCKING PEDO

Not really.

Charge 50 per hour and do the job.

Yeah, except IT REALLY FUCKING IS.

It's only sexual if you see it that way.

Has anyone used grc.com/inspectre.htm and van verify it's not dodgy?

How do I get more people to look at my ebay listing for monitors?
I usually get at least 100 views an hour for stuff like cpu/mobo bundles and gpus but I got a load of 1440p monitors on gas sprung Arms and I'm trying to get rid of them,did my usual individual test post to get an idea of price to charge and no interest whatsoever, maybe 20 views in 14 hours and zero bids

Should I break them down and sell them individually or keep them as sets? I have no idea what I would do with 14 monitor arms

Tl:Dr what terms do mouth breathers use when searching for monitors?

Explain how being a pedophile who doesn't act on their thoughts is bad.

>Explain how being a pedophile who doesn't act on their thoughts is bad.
All of you debating this are starting from the premise that "wrong" exists on a fundamental level. Which makes you, ironically, wrong.

What the fuck do I do about this if anything at all? Should I leave it or how do I get rid of it?
Christ I'm such a pleb thinking I could install Arch without this pc fucking up.

What is the best way to connect PC to TV that is in another room (10 meters away)?
I found 15m HDMI cable, but I would prefer something wireless. There is no Wifi at that place, only ethernet cable that is plugged in a computer. What are the options?

Can you explain me what is a loop device, user?

Depends on what you want to do with it. I'd personally just use the cable.

grab a cheap router that has wifi?

>brazzers isnt sexual, you just have a dirty mind
kill yourself

Best video editing software that is also free? Videopad editor was working fine, but it crashed my computer into an infinite boot loop that I just recovered from.

a loopback device is simply a device which "simulates" a physical device such as a hard drive, for example you can mount a directory or ISO as a loop device and access the files as if you were accessing them from a separate hard drive. Normal users won't really use them much at all, but they're commonly deployed behind the scenes. On reboot, the device will probably disappear - whatever is using that loop device will, if required, set it up by itself.

>I want my children (or children in general) to not be molested

I think that's how it goes.

Is this the stupid questions thread?

That TV is a bit old and I doubt it has Wifi. I will check tomorrow. A assume I would need to set up a raspberry Pi or something and router to make it work.
Cable is a problem as it goes trough a couple of doors or we would need to drill some holes trough the walls.
Is there anything that would just plug in a pc and in Tv, just like a cable, but it would be two wifi dongles that would pair together and it would just simply work, just like a cable?

well you could get something like a Chromecast for the TV and a USB WiFi dongle for the PC, but the latency won't be great. Be sure it's USB3 and not 2, which would definitely be too slow for streaming live video.

Pedos consumes images of children being abused. It makes evil people to abuse children in order to generate those images. Therefore pedos are evil.

What college major is actually good? Every time I do research they all have big negatives.

Engineering = One of the hardest majors. Graduate and usually live in bum fuck no where for alright pay. Will never get rich unless you run a business or get lucky in a niche field. More graduates than there are jobs.
CS = Much easier than engineering and you can find great pay in great cities. Lots of jobs but there is fear of skilled immigrant labor and outsourcing crippling these benefits. Can definitely get rich more there is fierce competition and ageism.
Medicine = Slave away your 20s in academia. Mediocre pay in 30s in residency and non-specialty. Only start making bank in 40s when specialized. Difficult as fuck major but highly respected to normies. No ageism, in fact old age is good.
Math/Physics = Only make good money if they go into biz or CS. Good chance they will end up neets or academia slaves.

*Can definitely get rich but there is fierce competition and ageism.

Some things are bad to even think about.

How to save twitter pictures in Firefox? I tried to inspect element but I can't find the .jpg

Can't you just right click and save them? That works fine for me.
Do you have an example tweet where it doesn't work?

Why do some programs/games need installing and some dont?
What does installing a program/game mean?
Let's say I installed a program on pc A then copied all files to pc B. Does the program run on pc B? If not what's the difference?

I have a wifi SD card that makes an annoying as fuck beep whenever it boots, doesn't matter if it's a camera or a memory card reader. Can I disable it somehow, probably by opening it up?

Is isopropyl alcohol safe to be used to clean a motherboard? I'm not going to use it inside the RAM slots just the surface of the mobo. It's kinda dusty and I'm wondering if it would damage stuff

It's a few things. Decompressing files and directories for fast access, detecting any external frameworks that are necessary, setting up permissions. A lot of it is instructions and settings buried in the registry. That's what really screws ya. There are some portable apps that run from a self contained folder that are designed not to use the registry, but most shit won't do anything if you just copy it over to a new drive and boot from that.

Don't be fucking dumb.
They're completely innocuous, you're the one viewing it in a sexual way.

What do yall consider the minimum for a decently usable tablet? I just want something to do notes on, maybe draw a bit. Laptops are fucking gay.

That 2080 I posted a while back giving me shit frames (worse than my 970)?
Well, apparently it really was fucked. Store finally (3 fucking weeks) got back to me and said they managed to repro the issue on their labs.

At this point, after a terrible post-purchase experience, waiting 2 weeks without it being shipped, calling them 4 times, finding out they didn't have the card in stock, it arriving and not working, having to ship it back to them... I just lost all excitement I had.
I just want my money back. I guess I'll keep it saved up and buy something newer later on. I'll keep using my 970 and play on low graphics and under 144FPS.

Honestly surprised that it wasn't just aggressive bottlenecking on my CPU's part, though.

Just bought a new 3rd party MacBook charger after the original died.

If I'm wearing headphones while this new charger is plugged in, there is a very noticeable crackling noise in the background.
I'm going to return this charger ASAP, but what does the crackling noise mean? What is the cause?

I don't really want to buy a new original charger for two reasons.
1. It costs 80€
2. Their build quality is shit and the "eco-friendly" rubber they use will disintegrate eventually.
But maybe if I know what causes this kind of static noise I'll know what to look out for to avoid this happening if I buy another model.

>tl;dr: I can hear crackling static noise in my headphones when 3rd party charger is plugged in. Why does this happen?

Also if I touch the palmrest, the crackling disappears. I guess the electricity is going through me into the ground instead of through the headphones. That can't be good kek.
I need to figure out how to divert the electricity going through the frame into the ground (preferably not through me). I've tried touching some other chargers to the frame but it doesn't seem to work

Can I do animations in HTML/CSS?
I kinda want to do a presentation like Power Point but with basic shit, my biggest concern is images and their placement.

Have you considered unplugging it?

Seriously though, there's likely something messed up with your os that's causing it to trigger a restart, or you've got a hardware problem that's causing it to turn back on. Boot into a live usb and then shut it down and see if it still restarts. If so it's probably hardware related.

If not, check the software. Did someone mess around with the button order or shortcuts as a joke and you think you're shutting it down but are actually putting it to sleep? Verify you're actually telling it to shutdown, do it from the command line and see if it persists.

If it's doing a proper shutdown and still comes back on, I'd recommend a reinstall of your os, and maybe an exorcism. It sounds cursed.

yes, search it online.

Most likely the power supply is slightly out of spec and the different frequency power it is providing is causing something under the palm rest to give off an electrical gurgle which is being transferred into the trace that leads to your headphone port, putting pressure on the palm rest shifts whatever it is just enough to stop it

It's not just pressure, I tried putting a heavy weight on the palm rest and nothing changes. It's only affected if I touch it (presumably because it then gets transferred through me).
I don't have a multimeter at hand though so I don't really know what kind of current this is,

Ok so while the specs are the same on paper (50-60Hz, 4.25A, 20V) there are two mysterious lines on the 3rd party charger

>WARNING:

Not sure what that's supposed to mean

This doesn't really help.

I liked habitica quite a bit. It's not a ToDo app in the traditional sense, but a gamification system. You can go nuts too, adding pics (even gifs) to the tasks/monsters. Look it up! It's pretty neat!

Stop masturbating 10 times a day and maybe you would understand.

There are adapters which can send an HDMI signal through 2x ethernet cables, assuming you might 2 spare ethernet lines.

Any of you niggas got some simple online tool to compose an album of svgs which allows for rescaling and adding some titles/caption? Can't find shit and cannot be bothered to do this in latex.

I am being offered pc parts at a discount as a friend is upgrading his cpu/gpu.

Would a Ryzen 2600x / Vega 56 be an upgrade from a 6600k / GTX 970 ? I am not the biggest gamer, so I am just looking for an increase in quality. I also king of prefer the Video Outputs from the Vega because I run 4 Dell u2515h monitors for Work / Sports Streaming. Thanks

>Have you considered unplugging it?
That's what I do. Is the only way if I want to have some sleep. But I would like to fix it.

>Did someone mess around with the button order or shortcuts as a joke and you think you're shutting it down but are actually putting it to sleep?
Not a chance. Only me, my bitch and her daughter uses this computer. And they both are good souls.

Thanks for the tips my good lad!

>Why is this monopolistic piece of shit corporation not making quality software.
Press F12 on Excel (to "Save as"). It crashes. Fucken magic!

what is a good plex alternative, so i can stream locally to an iphone.

>You mac fags are pretty awful. The touchpad works by being conductive to your hand.
I never did mention the touch pad though. I was talking about the palm rest – the part of the aluminium casing adjacent to the touchpad – not the touchpad itself.

>Now you're just being a retard. That's on everything.
I'm from europe, FCC disclaimers aren't on anything here for obvious reasons.

>It's what happens when poor electronics can't ground properly so it bleeds into sound devices.
This was actually helpful. I replaced the 3rd party adapter's plug with the original broken adapter's plug and that got rid of the interference.
Thanks

How do I root a samsung galaxy s5?

As far as machine learning goes and CUDA stuff goes : if you have 2 GPUs with 8gb vRAM, does it simply add up to effectively give you 16gb of useable vRAM to handle larger models than say a single 11gb vRAM GPU would?

Thanks. I will try with a cable and see how it goes.

Zoomer here (yes i'm now 18). About to start school in September for software engineering (all I really want to do is code) and have some questions.
>inb4 comp sci
I chose a school and program where the 1st two years are almost identical to the comp sci program. So if I want I can easily switch to comp sci and graduate just as quickly as I would have if I didn't switch.
>Bare with me
I just found out i'm going to be sharing a dorm room with a roommate 1st year, so I (most likely) will not have room to bring my desktop.
What is a good laptop I can buy that will run games properly (just a casual gamer but still want something that can run games efficiently). I know MSI is a meme, but what is a decent alternative? Money really isn't an issue (scholarship money, savings from working summers, etc) but I obviously don't want to spend 4k+ on a fucking laptop
>a few other questions
Suggestions on some coding books I can crash read over the summer to make things easier and thus give me more free time? My high school unfortunately didn't offer any comp sci courses, so I was stuck with physics, chem, bio, 2 maths, english.
>inb4 portfolio is all that matters
I know, and I plan on taking (although overpriced) bootcamp courses/programs during summers and after graduating to quickly build a portfolio/resume in web/software development, etc
Any other suggestions or advice? I'd greatly appreciate it.
