4chan has been dying for some time now since the mods censor you for 3+ days because they are browns and troons that ban you the moment you even insinuate anything they personally dont like, that, aside with not actually moderating actual low quality avatarfag spammers, ragebait flamewars etc paired with the humiliation ritual of the captcha, people just went to places that are less troon and brown filled and less censored, which at this point are plenty, even among mainstream social media lmao.

new to macOS. is it possible to install cracked adobe software like on windows? since i started using a mac, I wasn't able to install some dmgs when deemed unreciognized by the system, I'm afaraid the same will apply for cr*cked software?

>>106441458
I've never used one, but I presume you can bypass if you install with terminal as administrator. There may be an option in system security settings to allow from unknown/untrusted.

How do you install windows on and emergency USB drive? Just start the installation and choose it as the drive? Would this actually boot up if your main system every goes down for whatever reason?

>>106441585
Just put the .iso file onto a ventoy disk and if you system crashes then boot to the installer and use the system repair options. If you need another operating system for file recovery ect, always handy to have a linux partition setup.

If you can call functions like
foo(x, y);
in c. And you can compile entire files into objects, how does the compiler know the type of x and y if foo is defined in another file that it might not have even compiled?

Why are globals bad but files/databases good? isn't that just a global that multiple programs can write to?

>>106442175
i think files/dbs are different because each instruction has to follow some form of concurrency and transaction recording to prevent data corruption, while globals don't.

>>106442216

So spake the brown troon-lover who won't fuck off. Gross and cringe.

This place got totaled entirely by the userbase. Excessive shitposting killed this place, floods of stupid kids, schizos and other wackos and troublemakers. Mods and captcha are irrelevant. The kids, especially on the vidya and animu boards, expose themselves frequently when they accidentally give away how they lack any experience being grown adults (and how can they not? The inexperienced have no way of hiding their naivety.) along with other behaviors that only teenagers exhibit. Some of us offer reasonable alternatives and courses of action to some of the complaints and worries folks here express towars our changing world, but we get ignored in favor of, get this, shitposting. Unrelenting, unbridled shitposting. Well, there's still the occasional, older, more interesting anons to chat with, and unfortunate autists in need of help. Skin color means nothing here unless you are a schizo. Schizoids see connections and spirits that neither the rest of us nor Mother Nature or the Almighty Himself can see, corroborate, or measure.

>>106442154
And?
>>106442156
>how does the compiler know the type of x and y if foo is defined in another file
Because you #include-d or wrote the function declaration yourself.
>that it might not have even compiled?
Doesn't matter. The compiler only needs a valid declaration and it's good to go.
The linker, on the other hand, could error out saying "undefined reference to <func_name>".
You can go around this and compile successfully, if you use a name of a function found in the stdlib e.g. printf. You'll get a signature mismatch warning and either nothing or a seg fault at runtime. That's because the stdlib is linked by default.
Try this:
void printf(int i);

int main(void) {
printf(1);
}

Why isn't this filter working on these two posts?

How to get gallery-dl to download the files off 4chan, warosu, and arch.b4k without using their filename?

Take this example thread for instance, the first image is called "the creatures.png":
https://warosu.org/jp/thread/49868377
Clicking on it takes you the images archive, and the filename there is something else "1755368410880804.png":
https://i.warosu.org/data/jp/img/0498/68/1755368410880804.png

By default gallery-dl gets the former, so what are the options to get the latter? The documentation on git becomes more confusing the more I read.

>>106442175
Globals are usually bad because there's nothing preventing you from using them like a normal variable, so it's very error-prone. Files or databases have to be accessed as external resources with lots of friction, which forces the program to be a lot more careful, you always have to check if the access succeeded, if the read succeeded, if the write succeeded, etc.
With files you also often assume that only one program will be using it at a time, and often programs can break if you launch several instances that all try to write to the same file. Or for example, if you open a text file in notepad twice, add different edits, save one and then save the other, it will overwrite the first edit, and that's considered normal, whereas if you did this with a global variable it'd be very likely be a pretty huge bug.
Meanwhile databases have built-in concurrency controls so for example you can do transactions which means you can effectively assume nobody else modifies the DB at the same time as you (at least not in any way that would conflict with what you're doing).

tl;dr: accessing the same state from multiple places requires being careful, and files/databases have ways to force you to be careful, whereas globals SHOULD have the same amount of care but they exist as "just variables" and so you can put in exactly zero care. Which is extremely likely to lead to bugs.

what is that logic

Why are phones so confusing compared to regular computers when it comes to the OS?
You can instill the same linux distro everywhere but when it comes to phones there are a billion random images made by random people and i don't feel safe running most of these because of it. Why is it this way? is it really that hard to make your own image or is it a project that will take a while for somebody that never flashed a phone?

>>106442119
Suffer. Money transfer is tightly controlled by highly regulated institutions, which usually really don't like people being able to do it anywhere close to anonymously. You've got shit like venmo, cashapp, transferwise. None of these are all that much better than PP or Stripe, and in fact they probably look shadier.
If you make an LLC you can shield your own personal details, but note that your customers will still have to give up their details when paying you.

Crypto is unironically the best way to transfer money without central oversight, but as you noted it usually requires KYC at the point of on-ramp and off-ramp. If you're willing to pay taxes on your end, you can still set it up as an option for those users that want to bother - personally I find it much much easier to send someone a crypto transfer rather than having to doxx myself by having Paypal provide them with my full legal name when they receive my money, for example. But yes people who don't already know how to use crypto probably won't bother (so if you know most of your customers don't, then it might not be worth the effort from your side either).

You could consider a third-party intermediary service, like gumroad, or fucking about with subscribestar/patreon, etc. Then both you and your customers doxx themselves to the service, but they pay the service and then the service pays you out, so you're never doxxed to each other.

>>106443536
Because phones are meant for use by turbo normies who have no idea how to use a computer, and they're meant to extract maximum personal data from those turbonormies. As a result manufacturers have no incentive to make anything well, and every incentive to try to make it locked down and walled in. The fact that ARM doesn't have anything like the BIOS/UEFI standard that x86 has, means that there's no universal expectation to be able to access the bootloader and install your own OS, either.

The practical effect of all this is that device drivers are usually proprietary, locked down, and only available from the manufacturer. And this means that you can't just install a generic OS but rather you need to integrate your OS with the manufacturer's closed source device drivers first, so it will actually work on the phone, and it's different for every single phone out there on the market.
You can certainly learn how to do it yourself, it might take a little while but I don't think there's anything arcane about it. But it's not something you can just do in a day with no prior knowledge.

>>106443630
>you need to integrate your OS with the manufacturer's closed source device drivers first
I can't even imagine what that would look like. I think i will leave it be then.

Ok so assuming i bite the bullet and get something like a old fairphone and put LineageOS on it, how well are applications insulated from each other still? I know that in recent times permissions and filesystem access were locked down a lot but how much would for example whatsapp compromise a otherwise clean system? This is assuming non-essential network access is already blocked.

>>106443684
Honestly if you're buying a new phone for this then my recommendation is to buy a pixel, the a-series (cheap one) from a year or two ago, and install graphene. I spent years trying to get custom roms to work fine, gave up and used a dumbphone for a couple of years, gave up and installed graphene and it just works.

Otherwise to answer your question directly, it should be pretty well insulated, apps generally can't access each others' data. You really should make sure it supports a modern version of the OS though because you want up to date security fixes, android has had its share of vulnerabilities in the past. The main issue with having whatsapp running is the data it can collect from the phone itself, especially if it forces you to grant permissions for shit like location and then it can just track you everywhere you go, shit like that. If you can deny almost all permissions from an app then it's much better.
The other issue is with google play services - on normal android they always run in the background, if you run a degoogled OS then some shit doesn't work well such as push notifications (e.g. whatsapp will only notify you when it polls, which usually requires it to be open and uses more battery; you won't get notified for new messages that come in in the background). You can use something like microG though which restores most of the functionality to some degree, but for example push notifications rely on google's servers so while microG ensures you aren't sending google any other random data that the official play services may be harvesting, you'd still be connecting to google's servers for receiving the notifications. That's a fundamental issue with android app ecosystem though.

>>106443738
>buy a pixel
why that in particular? I know it has a dedicated rom but some of its shadyness runs on the hardware level too. The location module not just using GPS for example. Yes there is ARM trustzone but pixles have a lot on top of that from what i know.

>That's a fundamental issue with android app ecosystem though.
I just need that messenger running in *some* capacity. If SMS were the dominant texting method i would just get some dumbphone too but you might as well not have a phone at all if you don't have whatsapp in my country.

But disregarding that, is there something wrong with the fairphone? I just need something that is mostly not shady and can run privacy preserving roms with whatsapp and lasts over a day in idle. I have a spare phone i keep stock for stuff like banking and apps like that but my mobile one being stock makes me feel uneasy.

>>106443835
>why that in particular?
Cause like I said graphene just works. I've isolated whatsapp and shit to a dedicated user and so I can have them completely inactive when I switch to my FOSS-app-only user.
The hardware shadyness is a risk but I dunno I don't think you can trust any phone hardware nowadays.

>is there something wrong with the fairphone?
Does it support up to date LineageOS? If so then sure, go for it. Ideally it would also have up to date drivers.
Install microG and it should mostly work fine. The main issue is if Lineage support ever drops, or updates start lagging behind significantly, etc. If the phone is well-supported and well-maintained then there should be no problem.

>>106443884
>The hardware shadyness is a risk but I dunno I don't think you can trust any phone hardware nowadays.
You can't, but you can try to avoid as much spying as possible still. After all its also the reason you are using custom roms in the first place and like all OS's those also have weird parts.

>If the phone is well-supported and well-maintained then there should be no problem.
The fairphone is listed on lineages site as supported so i think its fine. The company even supports custom roms on their devices which includes lineageOS. They even ship /e/ as an option it seems.

>>106443630
ARM has EFI options dumbass. Phones use proprietary boot loaders because they don't want the user installing a different OS on subsidized hardware.

any recommendations or things to look out for when getting a new desk? almost everyone has height adjustment but I don't care for that. maybe a simple handcrack where you set it once would be nice but I don't need more.
I'd like the other gimmicks like integrated plugs for charging or a raised plateau for a screen specifically (I know I can but this seperate)
also does it matter if you turn off your pc or put it to sleep and then wake the next day? some desks I've been looking at have a 'pc spot' at the back of the desk where I couldn't reach it to turn it on, so wondering if turn off and on or sleep mode matters

>>106444736
you can set your fan curves with software or bios to keep it below that limit

>>106444736
Rubber mounts, rubber inserts, lower/higher fan speed.

>>106444758
is there a way to "blacklist" certain ranges? picrel as an example, im just not familiar with that sort of tool / program / etc

>>106444808
Most fan curves can probably be set to limits outside that range at a 1*C difference. Make it steep enough and it will be extremely unlikely to hit that specific frequency, and especially unlikely to stay there for any amount of time.
E.g. if 2000rpm is vibrating, set 50*C to 1600rpm and 51*C to 2400rpm
The only downside is that I'm not sure how much this will affect the fan service life if it spins up and down so much frequently. But fans normally last a decade and are very cheap so if it were me I'd just do this anyway and if fans start failing then maybe rethink it later

>>106444808
>>106444828
just set the minimum above or never go above the rattle
alternatively fix or get new fans or mount them with the rubber noctua style mounting screws

My new Lenovo Thinkpad supports both having a physical SIM inside it and an eSIM apparently (never used one).

What are the advantages of using a physical one over an eSIM? I have an old SIM from the good old days where you could buy one without giving the seller any information about your identity, but apparently nowadays in the EU there are cancer laws that require an ID and/or a scan of your face. Like what the fuck?

>>106447000
>What are the advantages of using a physical one over an eSIM?
You don't need permission from your ISP to swap it into another device.

>>106447135
The fuck? What's the point of having them then? I thought it would work at least like you can have it active at any device at any time, but only one instance, like old Steam.

>>106447187
The advantage of eSIM is that you can more easily store a few on one device. We never really had dual-SIM slot phones in the US, so most people don't care either way. But if you travel to places without ISPs that support eSIM or swap out your phone a lot it's more of an issue.

How do I get rid of the "No Input Signal" box bouncing around on my monitor (HP E241i)? I have two of them, both are connected to my desktop PC via DisplayPort cables, and to my two laptops via HDMI<->DVI cables. One of them just goes dark/power saving mode when there's no input from the currently selected input, the other does the bouncing thing. I mirrored every setting between them in the OSD and still it bounces crazy style on only one of them.

I tried to do NVIDIA "DSR" but it doesn't really work properly.

>have 1080p display
>want to render game at 3840x2160, be able to take screenshots at 3840x2160, but map it to 1920x1080 for 240Hz refresh.

The problem is when I set the resolution to 3840x2160 for DSR, I can only choose 60Hz. My game runs at 400 FPS+ in 4K, I have enough power but can't downsample and get high refresh rates. I can record footage in 4K 240 FPS (allowing 8x slow motion 30FPS playback) so the frames are real and present but it just doesn't feed them to my monitor. I have to actually drop the resolution to increase the refresh rate. I don't get it. I thought as long as I could render the frames, I could use it, and the GPU would be sending the monitor downsampled data but it seems like I am getting limited by port bandwidth or cable bullshit.

Some games come with a render scale slider that goes up to 200% which is great and lets me render games downsampled for better quality but this is still on a native res "canvas" and works in windowed mode, etc. DSR is different and apparently a nothingburger since it seems to be little or no different from just creating a fucking custom resolution of a higher size. Is that really all it is? Is there a fix for this or am I just fucked? Is this just another NVIDIA scam?

someone explain to me like I'm retarded how webp works.

>>106447757
New tech takes a while to permeate the consumer base. Smart glasses are still very much in the stage of being relatively new, pretty obscure, only manufactured by a few companies and still having plenty of tradeoffs.
And one big tradeoff is having a bulky pair of glasses on your face. Having a tablet is socially normal, having chunky AR glasses is seen as weird and people haven't gotten used to them so they'll say it's bulky and uncomfortable. (Yes tablets can be heavy and "bulky" to hold as well but again, people are used to them and people are even more used to holding devices of all kinds in their hands, glasses are just not something anyone is used to having be bulky.)
Another big tradeoff is the control scheme, on a tablet the touch screen is the most normie-friendly instant feedback control mechanism possible that even 2 year old babies learn to use, whereas with glasses you need to either still pull out your phone or have some kind of remote controller thingy. Eye tracking controls might help but again this is currently still very much on the level of experimental gadget AND it's still less intuitive than a touchscreen. Gesture controls might be a decent replacement but a) again this would take a long adjustment period for society to deem it normal, and b) gesturing at some virtual screen floating in the air is a lot more clunky than just tapping at a small (in comparison) screen held in your hands.

>>106447795
Because what you're seeing in the address bar is not the extension, it's the URL. The URL is the address on the website you're visiting, the web server takes this address and can serve you up literally whatever in response. Normally if you access a file by filename the server will just send you that file but there's no particular reason that it has to, it's just how it usually works.
In this particular case clearly the website is configured such that addresses that look like jpg images actually send you a webp image.

That's not "how webp works" btw, that's just how the internet and websites work. How webp works is similar to how any other image format works just with different compression algorithms etc. And way shittier.

do you get unlimited gen? porn site sharing was cuz you didn't need it all the time and sites probably didn't have login limits and sessions at the time.

I think a lot of the paid subscriptions have unlimited gen, but back in the day sites like that were hacked all the time, so why aren't we getting hacked accounts?
Bear in mind that a fuckton of these nsfw ai porn genning sites have popped up, mostly run by indians who don't know what the fuck they're doing, seems crazy to me there aren't a flood of sites/logins with a bunch of credits to use or something.

Is there a good offline Calendar I can download for Windows 10? I accidentally uninstalled the pre-installed one when I was running ShutUp10 and all that and I'd like to have something I can ideally embed in the taskbar (I use RetroBar in case that makes a difference.)

I'm not looking to be able to set appointments or reminders or anything like that. I literally just want to be able to quickly pull up a list of dates so if I find out "X thing is happening on May 23rd" I can just pull it open and scroll to that day to see what day of the week it is.

Anyone have any suggestions?

>>106448354
There are no "files" on HTTP, only resources and URLs.
You're trying to project your concept of files/folders to the web, but that's a problem with your understanding, not with the web.
You told your browser to save a resource locally and it did its best to give it a file name. It could have used "123" instead of "some.jpg", doesn't matter, the same data would be in that file.
Also, file extensions have nothing to do with the type of data in those files, an EXE is still executable code even if you name it bob.jpg.

>netsh wlan connect name="[WIFI_NETWORK_NAME]"
Why do these commands sometimes fail? I have them as shortcuts to netsh.exe on my desktop so I can switch between my multiple wifi networks with a keyboard shortcut (assigned to the shortcut...shortcut). If it fails and I run it two more times, it works. But it's annoying to have to check if it worked or not and keep spamming the shortcut.

Any anons here with a chromecast? I've never had desync issues before but with https://youtu.be/M2OTe6FLoO0 specifically the video is skipping ahead five seconds while leaving the audio behind. The video time doesn't change but I can see the on-screen timer jump from 3:47:37 to 3:47:42. Playing it on anything else doesn't have this issue so I know there's nothing wrong with the video itself. Was wondering if anyone else could replicate this / it's a known issue or if there's just something wrong with mine.

Ok so I just kinda have I dumb question I've always been wondering. The thing with remote or home servers. Is like how do you turn it on from far away or what happens if it randomly turns off due to power outage or some disaster or whatever?

>>106449711
Thanks, Anon. I guess I could but I usually have my phone set off to the side somewhere, whereas I have my computer hooked up to a large TV at the foot of my bed and it usually comes up when I'm laying in bed with my fiance and she's all like: "Oh, such and such is happening on X date, do you wanna go?" and then I have to check to see what day of the week it is and when it falls on my pay period. When I'm on my work laptop the Windows 10 Calendar works just fine so I just figure it out seamlessly, but after work I usually reflectively try to check the calendar, remember I don't have it, then have to grapple for my phone. It's quite a first world problem, but I can't help but kick myself for not just keeping the dang thing installed in the first place because it would circumvent this problem entirely.

skip the fancy electric height adjusters if you don't care for them and just get a solid desk with the conveniences you'll actually use. built-in outlets or USB ports save you crawling under, and a raised monitor shelf helps posture; as for the PC, if the power button ends up tucked away, just use sleep mode overnight since it’s quick, low-power, and easier than reaching back to shut down and restart every day, but turn off your modem or remove the network cable

for designing data systems at scale, the gold standard is Designing Data-Intensive Applications by Martin Kleppmann. it's practical, modern, and covers the big trade-offs; if you want broader context, Database Internals (Petrov) and Site Reliability Engineering (Google) are solid companions; as for libraries, the old-school O'Reilly Safari Books (now O'Reilly Learning) is still around with a big cloud section, and alternatives like Packt or Manning's subscription libraries give you that "bookshelf" feel online

that kind of text corruption with colored blocks and fragments usually points to a graphics driver or hardware rendering issue. most often it’s due to a buggy or mismatched GPU driver, VRAM errors, or hardware acceleration conflicts in the browser/application displaying the text; try updating or reinstalling your GPU drivers, disabling hardware acceleration in the affected app, and if the problem persists, stress-test your GPU/VRAM to rule out hardware faults

I'm not familiar with arms at all (I'm using text to speech) but it sounds like there are zero downsides, is this true?
I assume you can't use one with a flimsy (half)desk but that's definitely not something I'm interested in

>>106455435
The main downside is you have to buy an extra $100 or so gadget (for a good one with a gas spring - if you get a shitty one it might just be more annoying than helpful, if its range isn't good enough for you or it sags by itself for example).
Oh and yeah if your desk is MDF and thin, you might need to get in like a plank of wood between the clamps to prevent it from denting or cracking. If your desk is MDF and thick, it'll dent a bit but it'll hold just fine. If your desk is hardwood it'll obviously have no effect.

My PC shat itself when there was a power outtage while it was apparently updating. Windows was fucked and I had to reinstall from scratch. At first it couldn't even install because I had to reformat and repartition the main drive, but after doing that the install went well.
BUT now, sometimes(not always strangely) when booting or when powering down it gives me a bluescreen about Windows being damaged, it looks like it's trying to boot from the wrong drive, as in the UEFI the main boot drive doesn't show up, only the second drive(an M2 drive). When it gives me the error on startup I just enter the UEFI and exit then it starts normally. Any idea what's going on there?

>>106455254
Yes, the paste goes between the cooler and CPU.

>>106455534
Try removing the second drive, if this helps then you need to see how many ESPs there are on your disks (FAT32, usually the first partition on the disk, less than 1 GB in size).
If there are two, nuke one of them (just zip all its files together and remove the originals). If this didn't help, unzip them back and repeat the procedure with the other disk.
If there's just one ESP, you need a BCD editor to review the boot entries.
All of this can be done from HBCD, all the tools are there.

You might not need it to be powered but it'll definitely help reliability. However if your computer's port is capable of power delivery (as in the standard for high-powered charging and stuff, not just the normal 5V/1A) then there might be hubs that just power themselves off of the one USB cable without needing external connectors.

Why is it so hard to find quality pressurized air?

Like I tried to order multiple brands online and sometimes they come with just a tiny air outlet and you have to hold a plastic stick inside it, so you have to use both hands. Sometimes the same brand instead comes with a sophisticated outlet, where you attach the thing on top and press down on it, so you can just do it with one hand.

Why can't someone just make a plastic wrap around device that you can attach over the small air outlet tube to extend the tube's range???

Why does the Ryzen 5 5000 series CPUs work for some people, but not for others, no matter if it's a 300, 400, or 500 series motherboard? Even with an updated BIOs and everything. I want to get a Ryzen 5 5600XT, and I want to make sure it will work. My MSI B450 Gaming Plus motherboard is updated to the latest (Beta) version, and even though the BIOs updates don't explicitly say it supports the 5000 series CPUs, it says which ones are supported under the Compatibility list and which BIOs version to download on MSI's website. Also, I'll be buying it new, because I tried a 5600X used and it didn't work for some reason. I tried troubleshooting, but couldn't figure it out. My PC turned on and everything, but nothing showed up on screen, and yes the monitor was turned on; it wouldn't boot or whatever. I don't want to have this problem again. I'm also on the latest Linux Mint Debian Edition. Is there anything else I need to make sure the CPU will work?

>>106463652
Local client (like thunderbird or k9)? The only risk is if someone gains unlocked access to your device, they'll be able to see them all. If you have some email accounts that someone spotting on your PC/phone would be worse than anything else they could find by rifling through your personal data, then yeah, don't keep them permanently logged in. (Not even in the browser either, that's still easy to find.)

For anyone who doesn't grab your laptop and gain access, the risks are basically no different than just logging in then logging out - specifically, I'm fairly certain the only thing your ISP will see is the domain but I'm not 100% sure. The actual email server will obviously be able to link all your accounts with one server.

I actually found an old manual of my (ISP issue) router and the fucking steps are the same ones I've been trying, however it did say to avoid using 192.168.1.10, 192.168.1.11 and 192.168.1.12 and I've been trying to set up as .10. What the fuck is this and why isn't it written literally anywhere else on the ISP documentation and only on a lost manual where the examples are using Windows 7.

I'm going to reflash the OS again and scavenge for an old micro-HDMI cable that I should have and try another IP. If that works I'm going to be pissed.

Does anyone have any idea of what might be happening? I'm sure I'm doing everything right and feel so stupid that I can't seem to make it work.

Can they connect to your torrent port? Get the port from your torrent client's settings, then tell them to test with:
nc -vz YOUR_IP PORT
This will at least confirm that it's not a connectivity issue such as firewalls.
Also, when you download public torrents, is there any upload activity?

I need to destroy some chips on some circuit board. Old dead devices, flash storage chips, they weren't encrypted. It's unlikely anyone can access them anyway, with the device/controller dead, but I want to be sure of it.

I don't have a drill (poorfag) and don't want to buy one. Also I am not good with my hands, never been a DIY kinda guy.

Can I just destroy these chips with a hammer or something? Or a nail and a hammer?
Do I need to take the chips off the circuit board first or can I do this while still attached to the board? I have a hammer, I'll have to look for a nail somewhere. Only other tool I have is a hairdryer (what I used to open these devices and extract the board in the first place). And goggles.

Unplug the Pi from network, ping it's IP. Of it responds, then something else has that IP.
Are you allocating an IP on the same subnet? If not, you won't reach it.
Are you setting the static IP in the router DHCP settings or on the Pi?

>>106466290
Nail and hammer will suffice. Even the tiniest crack in the chip makes it unrecoverable.

>>106466215
Yeah i just tested the upload with the linux mint torrent and seeding works fine, and no they can't connect, i just tested it on my phone with termux and mobile data using the ip i got from whatismyipaddress (i'm using upnp, port fowarding doesn't work with my shitty isp modem and i can't change it). The weird thing is that when i was on Windows my created torrent worked fine, it got picked up by DHT almost instantly.

Is there any tool/extension that automatically paints on wplace using blue marble?

>>106465484
well you can start with some details
is it a hardware RAID box or what?

>>106466302
I'm setting the static IP on the Pi, using Open Media Vault's UI. Nothing else on the router has that IP, it's outside the DHCP range too as recommended, same subnet of course. After changing it disappears completely from the network, pinging finds nothing, nmap on the subnet returns everything it should (router, printer, etc) but the Pi.

>>106466290
Yeah like the other anon said it's really not rocket science. The only exception is if you're worried about an electron microscope in which case melt them in a fire (e.g. your kitchen stove), but the downside is that you'll probably make a bunch of unpleasant plastic/epoxy fumes so hammer is almost certainly the best method.
You don't even need a nail, just hit them hard, do it in a box or something in case they shatter or pieces fly off. Nail makes it easier but isn't necessary.

Check the SMART info for your HDD. Also check your OS logs, there may be errors shown when speed drops to zero.
Could be an issue with the destination drive, too.
The USB port/cable are less likely to have issues, but it is possible.

I see a lot of talk on the internet about ditching disposable batteries for Ni-MH batteries. AA and AAA. But the one time I tried an Ni-MH battery in my kitchen wall clock, towards the end it started to slow down. I didn't notice it at first of course and was late for work twice. One I realized, I kept the battery in and monitored it. It was losing about 10-15 minutes a day. But at a glance seemed fine. Whereas with alkaline batteries, they kept time right until the very end, then stopped abruptly.

Since then I've only used my Ni-MH batteries in digital things. Digital weighing scales, digital thermomenters, wireless keyboards and mice, remote controls etc. For everything mechanical I still use alkalines. Mechanical clocks, portable blood pressure monitor.
I read it's something about voltages differences, so that might explain why the Ni-MH wasn't able to keep time towards the end, wasn't able to supply enough power but was able to supply some.

However I still see lot of people on reddit, other various electronics boomer enthusiast forums, and of course /g/, who swear by going completely Ni-MH. So I don't get it? Are Ni-MH fine in your mechanical clocks? Is there just something wrong with my cells (or clock)?

In VSCode I configured CMake and the compiler to be clang. And I've configured the version to be C23, but the intellisense still gives me errors o features of C23 (like nullptr), and the intellisense tells me that the __STDC_VERSION__ is of 17 and not 23 but if I compile it says 23.
Any idea on why is this happening? Any recommended fixes?

my GPU keeps crashing on me. it happens across various games so i'm fairly certain it's a hardware issue. how can i diagnose why it's crashing? like i don't want to buy a new GPU if the issue is with the motherboard or something like that.

>>106467783
Alkaline batteries start at higher voltage and drop off quickly, whereas NiMH batteries start at lower voltage and keep it steady until depleted.
Your clock's voltage cutoff point is somewhere on the purple band in pic related, so alkaline batteries work well until voltage enters that purple band, but once there your clock stops working and you replace perfectly good batteries with new ones, wasting more than half of their charge.
Rechargeable batteries enter the band almost immediately after installation and seemingly never exit it, so your clock limps along in this undead state.
The problem is not the battery type, but the extremely wasteful design of your clock. It is more cost effective to bin the clock than to keep replacing alkaline batteries. A well designed clock works well with rechargeable batteries and even alkalines last much longer than with your current clock.

>>106468678
thank you
so you've never noticed any problems with NiMH in your mechanical clocks?

i will also check your theory. next time the alkaline battery in that clock dies (it's a big kitchen type wall clock that only uses 1 battery), i will check to voltage of battery, i have one of those tester thingies.
and it is a very old clock.

>>106469025
NTA but I don't have problems with Ikea continuous sweep clocks. If you're dealing with shift turnover you can't trust a single clock, especially one that isn't automatically synced.

The main draw with NiMH is it'll never ruin contacts with battery barf. It also performs better with high draw devices because lower internal resistance. I just try them in everything except rare cases where they explicitly say not to.

>>106469186
i was thinking of switching to carbon zinc for such devices to avoid the alkaline barf. so carbon zinc for mech clocks etc, nimh for digital things.

but maybe like that anon said it's just this clock being wasteful. i'll have to measure the voltage of the battery next time it dies to verify. need to verify before buying a new clock.

>>106467783

First thing you do is you log into your router and check your "DHCP offset", it's commonly something like 100 so your DHCP range starts from 192.168.1.100 and covers the rest of the space. Assumed it's a 192.168.1.0/24 network.
OK now you got 1 to 99 for your static devices the router usually being 1.

>I actually found an old manual of my (ISP issue) router
The actual static configuration doesn't involve your router beyond the DHCP offset setting.

The regex string needs to be at the start of the line and the arguments come after:

>>106470245
First obvious answer is use mobile data on your phone. If you have signal in your office, and your phone plan is not horribly limited, this is by far the best way to ensure you're 100% clear of the work's bullshit (you say nobody is actively monitoring the network but maybe one day someone will go back and check some logs and maybe they'll be having a bad day and will decide browsing 4chan at work is a fireable offense)
Second obvious answer is VPN, whether you make your own VPN to your home router or a rented server, or just buy a commercial VPN, this should also work assuming again VPN traffic isn't blocked like the other anon said

>200 gb free on 2 tb drive
>btrfs decides this is not okay
>can't even reboot gets stuck on loading before login appears
>fix it by deleting a 20 gb game folder with bootable usb
is this just how btrfs is?? I don't remember this happening with ext4.

>>106472502
I think it might happen during some operations like scrubbing or rebalancing or something, because it temporarily needs more space? But it shouldn't happen on normal operation, at least not that I'm aware. Maybe your distro automatically runs some btrfs operations on boot or something though.
Also are you absolutely certain you had 200gb free? Btrfs makes size tracking difficult because of things like mirroring (even by default, at least metadata is mirrored), subvolumes/snapshots might not show up, etc. You should be using btrfs filesystem du rather than native du for example.

But in general it's true that more complex filesystems generally make more assumptions about how much storage you have and how big your machine is. For example ZFS literally needs to you prepare all your disks upfront (it's very tedious to add more later) and eats all your RAM by default. Btrfs isn't nearly as bad in comparison, but something like what you describe doesn't surprise me too much - you have to actually learn how it works.
If you want something that will just werk no matter what, then ext4 or xfs are still excellent choices, but of course you miss out on all the features they don't have.

btrfs can't use all available space because of extent fragmentation, but it still counts it as free.
Once a btrfs filesystem is full, it accepts no further operarions, so you can't defragment it to free up space. I'm surprised that you managed to remove data, since this is impossible on a full btrfs untill you expand it.

not him but that used to be a bigger issue than it is now. i have a system a regularly run low/sometimes out of space which is using btrfs and i don't have an issue freeing space on it, but i have in the past run into what you're describing.
it's good practice to occasionally run a balance on btrfs volumes to keep chunk-level fragmentation down. unlike file defragmentation, balancing won't unshare your snapshots/reflinks so there's no downside to doing so that i'm aware of

Possibly, I last had this happen about a year ago with a filesystem created perhaps 2 years ago. I'm still on btrfs for reasons, but it's definitely not set-and-forget like ext4.

>>106473363
The forward slashes are to make it a regular expression. The following i is a regex flag for case insensitivity like you said
The parenthesis aren't necessary; a capture group (which the parenthesis represent) doesn't do anything here.
But, the \b are word boundary tokens are there so that those words are not a suffix for another word - aka, coito is matched (and therefore filtered) but acoito is not

>>106473532
>it's definitely not set-and-forget like ext4.
not quite as much, but mostly. the pros greatly outweigh the cons if you use even some of the features btrfs offers over ext4. i'm not going back to a non-checksumming filesystem, it'd feel like going back to fat32... or ntfs

>>106473332
I haven’t, first time lurking this thread. Thanks for the response. I’ve recently used the chain of thought idea to further understand topics of interest and that’s been very beneficial in my learning. Giving an isolated LLM a prompt with a series of tasks to complete in order had never occurred to me.

I suppose this ensures the model stays on task instead a sequence as opposed to a simple input output format.

>>106473657
yes this is how you can think of them. a tool for an end result. not your buddy. not a magic box. it will transform something for you, like any other tool.
also some advice would be to try and work around having it develop some prompts that will cater to your personality profile. i mean, a lot of people have custom instructions prompts that are:
>be brief, not overly wordy, dont preach to me, dont use thesaurus words
because when the llm exhibits those kind of behaviors, it bothers them. now from the start, they can give it orders on how it should think about things, and respond to things, to cater to them better.
its a good habit to compartmentalize everything too just because youre aware of the context tokens and things like that

The filter blocks posts with either coito or meds. Is the | a logic operator or some sort of separator? I tried replacing it with &, to make it into AND (ie to make it block only if both words are present), but it did nothing. Is there a way to do and filters?

>>106473526
Thye CAN tell in theory but there's no way to know if they will actually link this together.
Actually no, they'll tell from your IP that you're not actually in that country, so if what they actually care about is your phone number then it doesn't matter whether you use your wifi or not. If you use mobile data on a foreign esim you'll still be connecting through the physical mobile data network wherever you're located, the esim will just change your number. (And potentially charge you roaming rates, be careful.)
If you need to also have your IP in that country then you need a VPN. And then back to the original question, yes there may be ways to fingerprint your device so when you turn off your VPN they realise it's the same device. But most companies don't really bother.
Use a different browser, it's very likely to be more than safe enough.

>>106473591
But to even use those features you have to learn how to use the filesystem first. That's the difference. For example when ext added journalling, you didn't have to know anything, except that now on a crash your filesystem would basically be corruption-proof and would save a lot of the writes you had done. If you were using ext2, then installing ext3 and later ext4 would "just work" and work better than before without you having to do a single thing. Same with xfs for example, you just pick a different option on install and then forget about it entirely.
But with btrfs, the pros are only pros if you actually actively use them, and the cons are very easy to mitigate and really insignificant but again you have to actually know about them. I completely agree that it's worthwhile, all I'm saying is that if you install it and forget about it completely then you won't benefit and you might get annoyed.

>>106473868
Yea, the alternate/| token is the OR operator basically. There is no AND since that doesn't make sense in a regex, you match something or you don't

Thanks again. I'm unfamiliar with regex, and seemingly have trouble wrapping my noggin around them. Apparently 'matching' does not quite mean what I intuitively would think it does, as 'matching' something that contains both words seems sensible to me.

Normally to improve performance, you run some profiling tools telling you exactly how much time every piece of your code takes, so you can identify the ones taking the most time and try to find ways to make them take less time, whether that be by rewriting your code to be more efficient or by identifying specific primitives or resources or patterns of doing things which are noticeably slow and researching to see if you can replace them with a faster one. But for JS in a website specifically, I don't know what tools you'd use for that. I think the devtools in the browser have some profiling stuff so maybe you can start there but I'm not sure how good they are.
You could also ask in /wdg/, they might know.

nah you need to find another magnet or a seeder

What would a company see if I bypassed their crowdstrike lockdown on the leased laptop and wiped the drive and installed ubuntu?
It has been so long since I left the company and they never asked for it back so I just decided to start using it.

A lot of videos on 4chan gives me this error. What is happening and how do I fix it?

Unplug your router first so the current Windows OS doesn't ping the mothership.
Power on the laptop, reset BIOS, then boot from a USB stick and install whatever you want.
Chances are that the BIOS is locked with a password and USB boot is disabled, in this case you'll have to take the SSD out and put it in another computer to install the OS.

Not from the torrent. The entire point of torrent files is that they download from other people on the same torrent, so if there are no seeders (i.e. nobody who has them available to download from, because that's what a seeder means), then there is physically nowhere for the torrent to get those files from.
Practically speaking, however, sometimes really old torrents may have some ancient peer that has all the files on his hard drive but opens his torrent client once in a blue moon. It's happened to me once that I kept an ancient niche torrent (an archive dump for a long-dead website, whose magnet I found in an old pastebin when digging for info, which was already years old by that point) and I just kept it open in my torrent client for months (maybe even a year or two, I don't remember) and one day a seeder actually appeared and started uploading to me.
But of course that's down to luck and there are plenty of torrents that are just permanently dead.

What the other anon said but if the BIOS is locked, you might also be able to unlock it by removing the CMOS battery from the motherboard. Some laptops explicitly prevent this from wiping the password (thinkpads for example, at least I know they used to I dunno about today) but many don't.
