Your response is technically correct.
I should add that I was looking for something suitable to write blog entries with, with a simple syntax.
This looks good. Although I realized that I want to keep my meme arrows, so I'll probably have to roll my own.

thank you frend

Is this direct downloads or will it just link to torrent sites like 1337x.to?
and no botnet or cryptocoin miner inside?
why would anyone do all that work for....nothing?

Hands down PowerArchiver, you can get a clean repack/patched version from rsload.net. I've used 7zip, winrar, basically every one, and PowerArchiver is amazing, hands down the best thing

My google results look faggy. What happened and how do I fix it?

Did you already search on nitdroid or maemo to see if someone already had a guide for changing to android or upgrading etc?
If not try searching the model on those sites

faggy?
you can install various addons on chrome or firefox which allow rules for websites to change your useragent to something like IE 8 for google search results
You get pic related, the older cleaner layout
You can also just use javascripts or find pre-made ones on
greasyfork.org/en/scripts?utf8=✓&q=Google Search
to use with addons like Violent Monkey
Not sure what it is about the current search results page thats bothering you so much?

It's like each result is in a card or a post, like those google now cards. Also, the url is above the big link instead of its usual place under it, it's also gray instead of green which makes it harder to see. B

ut that's apparently only on chrome, on Firefox it's normal. Thanks for the tip.

im using VMware and its pretty great however when I try to use the android SDK from within the VM it says my CPU doesn't support virtualization. whats up with that?

Sounds like they are testing based on useragent data or you have some glitch on chrome due to an addon or update
The quickest way to probably resolve it, without doing any debugging or troubleshooting is to just install the Canary version of chrome
google.com/chrome/canary/
(it is exactly like chrome in every way, just the latest version of chrome)

How reliable are standard AC power cables? I'm looking to push around 1800 watts through it to power my power amp, or should I just shell out the extra money for some audiophile power cables?

I had a similar issue, after i updated (just pirated the latest version) it went away
can you run ANYTHING on vmware? if not it may be that virtualization, for whatever reason, has turned off in your bios and you need to turn it back on

>shell out the extra money for some audiophile power cables
kek, no, you'll be fine without going full retard like that

I turned on virtualization in the system BIOS. I tried updating VMware tools but I got an error, "Unable to download VMware tools - There was a problem updating a software component."

Did you miss the part where I used 3 different ports and cables? HDMI, mDP, and VGA.

Are extended mousepads (the ones that are big enough for keyboard and mouse) a meme?
Are they worth the extra 10-20$ in pricing?

>I tried updating
Welp, reinstall/update -
rsload.net/soft/10943-vmware-workstation.html
If it still fugs up, check if it even works on virtual box, if it doesn't, then you know its a major issue with your computer, if it does work, then you know its some weird issue with vmware

Whoops, well it's shot, congrats

Hi guy wtf is wrong with my laptop, light blue bar appear on the screen outta nowhere.

So why does the laptop screen work just fine?

Any good, free programs to design simple websites? HTML & Javascript should be enough for my needs.

why dont my 4chanx filters work?

whether its under general filters or comments filters, it doesnt work. what i type is

/term/i

5g is a massive, steaming meme, and will be for the foreseeable future. Everything you could possibly learn about it outside of marketing material is terrible. It gets godawful reception, is available in only a handful of areas, is compatible with only a small number of phones and DESTROYS the battery life on them, and overheats a lot of them in the process. It's fucking laughable. Also they're doing that eternal thing of calling some of the current gen shit by the new name cause they can. If you're not on verizon, switch to that. If you are, try ATT. Otherwise you're probably just fucked by congestion in your area and the best you can do is live off of wifi for the next 5 years or so.

what your opinion on igg? my only complaint is sometimes the download links are dead for old or obscure games. dont think ive ever encountered anything sketchy there

>make a usb disk to install DEBIAN (tm) on my chinkpad
>start the install process
>asks about my network settings
>don't have/want any internet on this device
>INSTALL THIS NON-FREE HARDWARE TO CONTINUE
Now I understand why RMS doesn't want this garbage. Can't even install without connecting to the internet is some bullshit.

would you claim the warranty on a dead hard drive? WD puts in writing "we're just gonna swap it with a barely-functioning one that someone else claimed their warranty on and charge you for the shipping." basically no guarantee the replacement i get will last another couple of years, or even come to me functioning.

bretty simple
is your wrist up when you're doing shit most of the time
or is it down as you furiously masturbate?

put them in general and specify which fields/boards they're meant to be filtering
/cope/i;boards:v,vg;type:subject,comment

still didnt work. do i need to do something special for spaces in the term?

ive had a ton of fucking trouble with various 4chanx features not working on previous computer builds, such as the filter problem, and clicking post numbers only sporadically opening a reply field. when i reformatted, those seemed to go away for a while, but theyre back. i use firefox with ublock origin, smart https, and violentmonkey(just for 4chanx so far). i havent really fucked with any of their settings, but maybe you would have an idea of what might be fucking it up

so i have a fractal design meshify case, with one intake fan and on exhaust fan. i also have the two fans pointing to the exhaust from my noctua d-15. do the noctua fans contribute to negative air pressure, and would i need 2 more intake fans to give my case positive pressure? and if i dont have heat problems, is it worth it to buy the fans to make the case have positive air pressure?

are you seeing an error saying they aren't working or are they just not matching what you want them to?

i use tampermonkey myself. maybe check the advanced tab on 4chanx settings and make sure 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval' are whitelisted.

would suggest reading your browser console for errors specific to Jow Forums

normal interface doesnt give me an error, idk if thats what you meant with your first sentence, but when i ctrl+f the filter term, there are still threads with that term

firefox console gave me this in the catalog
>Loading failed for the with source “powerad.ai/script.js”

that looks like the problem, but idk what to do with that information

or now that i see the word "ad" i have no idea if its related at all

w-what's the message?

Attached: owo.png (831x328, 26K)

is filtering enabled in the main settings? if it is then your filters just aren't matching what they're meant to filter. normally if you fuck up the syntax of a filter 4chanx will tell you, so it's not like you didn't write them correctly.

hard to tell how to fix it without a specific example.

IGG is fine. Many clueless people on Reddit and such will say otherwise. Since they were mainly a reason another torrent site got taken down and now they spread false rumors or viruses and reccomend you use other websites that force you to turn off your ad blocker and give you malicious ads. So long story short IGG is perfectly fine and people who say different are either clueless or bandwagoning.

Shilling alternatives to buying a pass now that you can't buy them with PayPal anymore. Like buying captchas or just turning on "Force Noscript Captcha."

>hard to tell how to fix it without a specific example.
This, please post what the exact filter is, what thread you're still seeing, and what page you're on when you see it.
In addition to
>is filtering enabled in the main settings?
you have to refresh the page after changing filters for them to apply, so make sure you did that.

apparently "filter in native catalog" was unchecked. for some reason it doesnt show "x number of threads filtered", but i put in the first sentence of a popular thread and it didnt show up anymore. thanks, brah. i stil dont know why clicking post numbers doesnt always bring up the reply, but i bet its something absolutely retarded that nobody could account for, so its fine

holy shit that means you won the prize

I downloaded TOR browser but I don't really know what I'm doing.
Are the main benefits just no tracking?

Also, how do I make it so I'm browsing out of the Netherlands? Something in the settings?

since every question in here is stupid, i hope i don't get shit on for this, because i'm legitimately curious.

right now i have a b360/8700/16gb-2666 build that serves me very well. now i've seen that the 9900k works with this board, and while i won't be able to overclock, i should be able to hit turbo of 5ghz according to Intel. What should I be nervous of if I went through with this?

I'm looking for a specific website. It was usenet related, free, did not require registration, and functions like an archive of sorts. You could look up specific entries on it and it would show you a list of similarly named entries. Not all these entries were necessarily on usenet currently. It was similar to binsearch, but you could actually click on the things you searched to get more detailed information, like posting date and filesize. I've been looking for it for a week now, but I can't find anything. Any help?

since no one else is answering, i think you need a VPN for that. but im dum, so take that with a grain of salt

because they know poorfags unwilling to upgrade will buy it

How does the Android's 'Call Spam Filtering' work? Does it actually send each incoming phone number to Google, or does it use a predefined list, like adblocks' hosts file?

The air cooler is just pushing air already inside the case faster trough the fins of the cooler, it does not contribute to the negative or positive case air pressure. It's more complex than that but I'll leave it at that.

>and would i need 2 more intake fans to give my case positive pressure? and if i dont have heat problems, is it worth it to buy the fans to make the case have positive air pressure?

Yes two more intake fans in the front would contribute to a fairly substantial drop in overall temperatures, particularly with high quality fans. Watch this video

For a mesh front, the more fans in front of it as intake the better cooling.

I'm using the ASUS EZ Installer to get win7 on my new rig (8700k z-370a mobo), but the shit hangs on collecting information. I've booted into 10 ltsb for the moment. What did I do wrong?

>I'm using the ASUS EZ Installer
>What did I do wrong?
oh my god user why on earth are you using that shit?

Using a 10 year old OS. Even if you got it working, you'd still be up a creek when security updates end in a few months. No OS can last forever, and it's a fools errand to try. LTSC is alright, although I'd just go with education. No need to fuck with the install cycle.

Fuck off, pajeet.
I'm drunk? I dunno. I managed to get win10 ltsb working after a fifth of rittenhouse, I can get this working.

>I'd just go with education
Enterprise LTSB is 100% better as it has options in gpedit that are locked on other versions
it also has less bloat and there are scripts and programs made specifically to work well with it, including but not limited to DWS
i get that education has more of the same feature, but as someone who has both OS on various systems, enterprise LTSB is best
however my main OS is win server 2019 datacenter with desktop experience, it is a great OS and tops even enterprise in every way

partition your storage with something like EaseUS Partition Master, install win10 on one partition, then try to install win7, then use easyBCD to fix up your win boot manager, then if you want you can delete win10

>Enterprise LTSB is 100% better as it has options in gpedit that are locked on other versions
All versions of enterprise have identical registry/GP options.

There is no way to choose a tor exit node. You'll just have to keep on clicking on "new identity".

For the most anonymous browsing, keep the tor windows at it's default setting. Only browse .onion sites, and under "advanced security settings" select "safest".

With tor, you also have the ability to access ".onion" sites. These sites are only accessible through tor. But if you ask my option, there's just a bunch of shady scammers and chomos out there.

Opening tor also opens a VPN server on your computer. I forgot what port it was, you'l have to look it up. It's a SOCKS server.

Trying to compile downloaded c++, there are a bunch of these:
