What does trustworthy exactly means?, so if you delete the cookies you have to post for a while until the puzzles are reduced again? Do you think it has something to do with the ad blocker? Because recently I had 3 puzzles and after deactivating the ad blocker I got 2.

So what's the difference between frametime and fps? Or how does that whole thing work why isn't more fps the thing that matters but better frametime is

>>108256758
>trustworthy
It means your IP, browser and fingerprint are judged to be unlikely to be a spammer or a residential proxy. It's a similar concept to what cloudflare does to profile you and determine if you're a bot/scraper/ddoser or a real browser.
>ad blocker
Probably blocks some trackers Hiro added to fingerprint you better and therefore lowers your brower's score, yeah. Again, same as cloudflare, same as google recaptcha, very similar concepts.

It's been getting implemented now because residential proxies have exploded in popularity recently, letting spammers ban evade extremely easily. So now every residential IP is getting vetted and fingerprinted with these captchas. Which is not necessarily helping because the only thing you get on a new IP is a few more pictures to solve, which isn't gonna stop a shitposter who's dedicated enough to already be proxyhopping, but whatever.

Youtube has been really fucky lately, I'm not sure if it's a problem on my end or if it's a widespread issue. Half the time it doesn't load whatever video I click on, and if it does there's a small chance it'll just stop working even if it's fully buffered. Embeds don't work on any website or on Discord. The few videos that do work also take a long time to start playing, sometimes upwards of one minute.
Fresh Windows 10 install, Firefox and ublock origin are updated.

>>108257249
try disabling ubo for like an hour while using the site and see if it fixes the issue. if it does, it's youtube's anti-adblock targeting and the best you can hope for is keep ubo and easylist updated and usually the maintainers will fix it soon enough.

if that doesn't fix it, obviously it's something else. you might want to try making a new firefox profile or seeing if some chromium variant works better.

there was a soulseek user who is offline for some time (last i seen him was 2-3 months ago) and his number of shared files/folders show as "unknown". unlike other offline users having their number of files and folders displayed all the time. any chance he will ever return/did he delete his soulseek account if this is even possible?
sometimes i search by some folder name, maybe he changed username but i lost hope already :D
i don't think there was a reason some admin banned him, he just shared some rare club/dance vinyl and cds.

Display goes black for a second while not doing anything other than browsing the internet using Firefox. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

It's hard to recreate this random black screen, so I'm not sure what's going on. The only thing consistent I've noticed is the screen goes black with Firefox window active. Maybe it's Firefox, but, again, hard to recreate this. And yeah, this happened on 26.1.1 and still happened on 26.2.2 driver update.

I posted this as a thread last night, but I got zero helpful replies, so I'm posting it here instead.

I'm looking to buy the most advanced, most powerful, most top-of-the-line laptop that there is.

Should I go with the MSI Titan HX? That's what everyone claims is the most powerful. I'm definitely not an expert on this subject, though.

Advice please.

>>108260075

have you read product text if there is anything nogo you cannot buy

Does Grabber not connect to paheal anymore? I can't download from there though other places work fine and the site is up. There is some sort of connection given it's telling me stuff like '1 of whatever amount' pages and when I click monitor on different terms it tells me about different amounts of images, but I can't get the images to show up or download. It just says no result and when I use merge results (with paheal being the only source) it tells me how many pages of results there are but still won't let me download. Does anyone know of any alternatives that do the same thing as grabber or let me know if it still werks on their machine on paheal?

>>108258941
Try a different video cable. Every cable has a maximum bandwidth it can carry, maybe you're exceeding it when your computer tries to push more frames or wider color range.
If you don't have one, just reposition your current cable, it may be picking up interference from a nearby cable.
Try playing some HDR videos or images, see if that triggers the problem.

>>108260349
The monitor came with the cable, so it's not a cheapo one. Actually I never encountered this since I got the monitor 6 months ago. For now I disabled hardware acceleration on Firefox and see if the problem persists (though when depends if I'm around to see it). Then I'll switch cables and perhaps switch Display Port ports.

>Try playing some HDR videos or images, see if that triggers the problem.
My monitor doesn't have HDR, I believe.

I haven't seen the "please unblock spur mcl whatever" shit in like a week, did they dial back on it or did I somehow get the necessary cookies to keep posting here anyway? I never disabled uBlock or anything.

>>108258274
Are you absolutely sure that the new firmware is for your model, down to the last letter?
If there is a revision number printed on your drive, that has to match as well. Shitty manufacturers (Kingston, ADATA, ...) often use the same exact model for different drives that do not have any component in common.

>I buy to VPN
Typically you rent them.
If you're buying a machine you'll prolly be wanting to look into colocation.

>into US
This VPS for getting into the US, or you want it *in* the US, so you're browsing with a US datacenter IP?

I'll assume this is for cheaps. Bear in mind, especially with VPS's where you'll be sharing hardware (and the folk aiming for cheap commonly want to spend as little as possible before it's pulled for abuse), cheap doesn't tend to align reliable. But poke about places like lowendbox and webhostingtalk see if you can scrape up a bargin...

>to get some freedoms?
How badly is your shit cucked to think freedom is there?
Where from? 'cause pretty much anywhere in europe you should have superior standards applied to almost everything...

>>108260075
This seems to be an old model with some oven-grade Intel CPU and a 4090 GPU.
It's good if you can find it cheap, but not the best performer.

>>108258208
>does Google pay them for using their content?
Not usually.
They commonly whore their users for advertising revenue. It doesn't really take eleven scripts to render a .jpg.

>or websites in general
If there's a substantial drop in traffic - already evidencable - the drop in revenue will cause financial contraction. In many cases a lot of expenditure is dealing with the scale of the userbase - so as this drops, so will their costs.

But I would eventually expect it to struggle under the current model once the advertising revenue switches from the human user to the AI agent(no, I'm not joking. Cunts like Visa are balls deep in this, ready for then AI doing your shoppin' for you).

The good news is all the absolute shit that only exists for the express purpose of extracting advertising revenue from the victims, I mean users, will vanish.

Things that actually matter people will pay to keep around. Lil 'indie' things that are effectively self-fueled anyway having no advertising revenue to speak of, will continue self-funded...

>>108259300
> a separate OS? a hypervisor?
None of the above.

Again, I want the absolute best laptop there is.

>>108260800

>By what measure are you defining 'best'?

Every measure - RAM, graphics, sound, storage, processing, GPU, everything. I want the one that's the most advanced and most powerful in every department.

>>108260812
>Every measure
Unfortunately. That's not how this shit works.

To make this portable there are sacrifices. Typically. Can think o one dual core xeon thing that ate near KW atta wall... Not all examples make the same sacrifices.

A quick poke didn't yield anything with larger numbers for what you list than the MSI, but I didn't put a great deal of effort into it...

I can understand this understand this with things that hold lithium batteries, but I've seen things like microphones and keyboards. Why is this?

Couple of questions friends.

With Myrient shutting down, I figure I should download some ROMs and ISOs. Is it better to store stuff on an HDD or a spinning disc? I feel like the former might die in 5 or 10 years, and I'm a lazycunt who only really wants to back this shit up twice. (I know not all media lasts forever and if I'm not willing to make back ups I'm a literal tard...)

Also, I want to make a Pokemon-like game in Javascript. I know nothing about CS and am considering a degree in CS. Would embarking on that journey make my upcoming schoolwork easier?

Thanks in advance to all who reply.

Anyone know why when you look at the comments of a popular account on X it's always AI generated responses, shit you'd write if you had to hand in a school essay. What do these freaks get out of it? A lot of african and cartoon pfps of these accounts.

Looking at it online, I'm see some bullshit about switches, how the keys sound. some fucking RGB shit. What in the hell is this retardation? I don't give a single fuck about what the keys sound like, as long they're not too loud, preferably they should be as quiet as possible. Are keyboardfags completely retarded? How do I buy a normal mechanical keyboard?

It will not be of much use to you else... Actually making something will naturally yield experience in the field.

I bought a Chinese laptop off of Amazon, some Kaiger brand but theirs a few brands with what looks like the same laptop. It's got a Ryzen 5 7430u, 16gb of DDR5 ram and a 512gb SSD. Bought it for like 400 USD off of Canadian Amazon. Honestly the build quality seems good, IPS screen is decent and nothing fishy or shitty about it at all so far. My only thing is like....can I trust this thing? I should probably like wipe the windows install and re-install it from a USB in case of I don't know backdoors but this laptop has legit zero bloat no bullshit apps or anything.

TLDR:Can Chinese laptops be trusted/should I keep this or spend 200 more dollars on a similar name brand one?

I used to have a kindle fire to read comics/manga 'n shit, but the android version is so old that most reading apps don't support it any more. Is there a decent android 16 tablet that's cheap, not a scam, and not full of AI AIDS? I'd ask /csg/, but ordering from china kinda sucks here, so it's gotta be sold on amazon or similar I guess.

To assume such things are in play, scamsungs "find my mobile" tool can be used to remotely unlock it.

I hear Tenorshare 4uKey for Android has potential but no personal experience...

For some reason, I can watch 1440p@60 VP9 Youtube videos through Steam without any slowdown or hiccup, while Ungoogled Chromium struggles to buffer the same videos. Since Steam's Web component is also Chromium-based, why does it run better than an actual browser?

is ungoogled up to date? it won't update on its own, you need to manually update it or use a different program to auto-update it (i use chrlauncher). if it is, hard to say, maybe a bug with the hardware acceleration or it got turned off somehow. you could try a portable version of regular chromium or even chrome as a sanity check and then just erase it once you've checked.

the spread for when they fail is pretty large but it's longer than average, yes. if you wanted to keep the save file you'd probably want to do so now. i *think* you can do it with just a flash cart but don't take my word for it.

it's at the far end of the lifespan curve. are you sure the save is that far back? iirc saves back then didn't include the date (or have any ways of knowing the date other than being set up manually). maybe the battery was replaced at some point and then a new save was created after

What is the best logic here? And where can I go to get a better understanding of data design and thinking critically?

>database with regulated info reported quarterly
>users can add and amend this info after the reporting period
>results in previously reported info appearing incorrect, needing a reconciliation process, and amending info with regulators

stopping the user from modifying info after a certain date sounds good but can still lead to inaccurate info if the user forgets to enter it in time, and it's difficult to enforce timely entry and stop them forgetting. it will also mess up the kpis of the processes after it.

on the other hand, it falling into the next reporting period is simply not accurate as well.

How would you deal with this?

>>108272293
You don't. If there's only one PCIe power cable coming from the PSU, and it only has one 6+2, the PSU probably can't power that GPU.
You might be able to some sort of splitter or horrible molex or sata to PCIe adapter, but you are likely drawing too much power from your PSU.
This could simply cause instability and random shutdowns or damage components, especially since this is likely a very cheap PSU.

>>108272145
You must disable any changes to data from the *previous* period once the current period ends.
If it's monthly, then on the last day of March you disabled editing/adding of data for February. On the last day of April you disable editing data for March.
So people who forget or don't care or make mistakes have one whole period to make late changes. This way they can't blame "the system" since everyone knows they had plenty of time.
>will also mess up the kpis of the processes after it.
Tough luck. The database system follows the same rules as the real world.
Were KPIs not being affected in the same circumstances before the database was implemented? They probably were, so "not affecting KPIs" can't possibly be a design criteria.

reading back through my post, I should've made some things clearer.

- we *start* compiling the info for the previous quarter within 2 weeks of the current quarter starting, so there's not much time space for a lagged locking system, even though i like the idea of it.

- each 'record' in this database passes through different stages or steps. reporting uses the info available at that point in time, but the user still needs to input info for the future parts of this record's lifecycle. so is it still so easy to lock off access?

Against my better judgement: Windows Hello: This feature must be enabled, as it supports biometric authentication.

I hear:
- Access Security Settings: Go to your Microsoft account's security settings.
- Select Passkey Option: Choose to add a passkey as a sign-in method.
- Authenticate: Use Windows Hello (fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN) to register your passkey.

Tho, be advised. Biometrics actively reduce security. You cannot keep your face out of the public domain. You cannot change this when it is inevitably compromised. In 2014 Angela Merkle's fingerprints was printed from stock journo footage.
Tho is someone can't be bothered with a printer, a security protocol that encourages an attacker to cut pieces of you off must be questioned.

What should I check when buying a used HDD? Is running

smartctl -a /dev/sdX -d sat (SATA to USB adapter used)

, and checking the throughput with

dd if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/null bs=1M iflag=direct (skip=N/2, where N is half the drive's capacity in megabytes) status=progress

sufficient?

I've only looked into Western Digital Red drives thus far. Are there any brands/models I should avoid, aside from the ones that aren't explicitly for use in NAS settings?

Also, with respect to picking HDDs, what are some considerations that should be taken into account when putting together a NAS/home server other than using CMR instead of SMR drives? I'm mainly just going by what I've read in the install gentoo wiki thus far. As I understand it, generally, if I want to make use of any RAID configuration or ZFS, I should have the same capacity across all drives I use? General advice is welcome too. I'm not particularly worried about redundancy/uptime at the moment--that decision may come to bite me in the ass later in the future.

What kind of memory and IQ do I need to understand software, hardware, DevOps, programming, and hacking, and is there a way I can be sure from the get go that I have what it takes to dive into these kinds of things? Lack of understanding of this stuff when I use things built on those kinds of knowledge all of time bothers me. The most basic thing I understand so far is the concept of abstraction and how I can apply that concept to learn.

Also, here's a better and more direct question. How do techfags minds work when they read over tech jargon riddled text? Is anything glazed over for expediency or do you compute it all and systemetize it in your minds as you read? I feel like a competant person in the feilds would do the latter, and I'm not the best at computing things like an autistic it seems, so I wonder if I'm too slow for this kind of thing.

>>108273868
My assumption is that he database replaces an existing process, so just ask the people involved what they did in this case before the database.
If they had no KPIs before, but want them now, then ask them how that's supposed to work in their mind.
>We just want KPIs, but still allow for data changes forever
In this case they'll get inaccurate KPIs, tough luck.
One strategy is to recompute historical KPIs every time the data changes. So if someone edited the data for Q3 '25 today, that would trigger an update of the KPIs for Q3 '25 (and Q4 '25, most likely).

>>108273844
>we *start* compiling the info for the previous quarter within 2 weeks of the current quarter starting
So they have 2.5 months to compile the data, right? If that's not enough, make it 5.5 months (end of next quarter).

>>108275121
Most drives labeled CMR are actually 2nd gen SMR. What you probably think of as CMR is limited to consumer drives that end in Pro and top tier enterprise lines like WD Gold or Seagate Exos X.
>if I want to make use of any RAID configuration or ZFS, I should have the same capacity across all drives I use?
You should use btrfs because it doesn't have this limitation. zfs for home use is 100% larp.

>>108274388
That should be sufficient for 4-5 simultaneous 1080p streams. The client does buffering so short dips in your bandwidth won't affect playback.

>>108275070
Try a different browser on a different computer, see if the issues persist.

>>108275121
>should have the same capacity across all drives
Not required with btrfs or LVM. If your intention is RAID1 then I would advise to not mix in a drive that exceeds the total capacity of the pool without it. So 2+4+6TB is fine, but 2+4+10TB isn't the best idea.

Writing super-general definitions that fit everything is a job for a dictionary and usually they end up pretty useless anyway if you're trying to learn what something really is.

>any in a series of standardized units for use together: such as

Mech keyboards are not the end all be all and "mech keyboards are so good for typing you'll never go back" is a psyop. The actual reality is that cheap rubber dome office keyboards suck, as in the $10 standalone keyboards, those are absolutely atrocious.
Laptop keyboards also sometimes suck real bad, and sometimes are not too bad actually. A big difference between mech and laptop keyboards is the travel distance, on a thin laptop keyboard you press the keys down like 1mm, while on a full sized mechanical switch you can press it down 5mm or so. Some people absolutely hate thin keyboards and therefore a full sized mech is their only option, some people don't care, some people actually hate thick mech keyboards because you have to push down so far.

>I don't give a single fuck what the keys sound like
>preferably they should be as quiet as possible
Which is it?
There's two aspects to sound, one is reddit retardation of actual soundfags fucking wanking about how good their keyboard sounds. But the other is the reality that the mechanisms of mechanical switches can often produce various clicks or clangs. Even without explicit clicking mechanisms the switches being made out of all plastic usually makes them louder than most laptop or cheap office keyboards which are rubber-based.

So if you don't care about sound then you can ignore all this, but if you want a quiet keyboard then you need to look for silent switches and it also eliminates all clicky mechanisms from your consideration. So you have to decide if you give your single fuck about that or not.
>RGB
You can ignore that entirely, it can be turned off even on keyboards that have it.
>bullshit about switches
The actual mechanism in the switch completely defines how it feels to press on it, and is the entire point of a mechanical keyboard. There is no "normal" mechanical keyboard. If you genuinely don't give a fuck then you are fine on whatever you are using right now, and have no reason to buy a mech.

Almost assuredly intended interference, detecting pings to screwgle and realising it's been scroffled.

As for evidencing and diagnosing: Wireshark

Capture the packets. IF you can own the other end of the connection you can be in full control of the data being fed in, and can actually evidence via packet capture that isn't what comes to you.

>there must be a tool that can fetch why this doesnt load
Wireshark is a "protocol analyser" ... When cunts like T(roll)-Mobile pretend to be you, or the remote service, and issue FIN,ACK packets in your name, or the remote services name, to prematurely sever the connection, you packet log hsa a FIN,ACK packet that (hopefully) you can evidence the remote end didn't send.

This is a social problem, not a technical one. The core of the problem seems to be that you have a deadline for submitting data to the regulators, but people don't prepare that data in time and then try to amend it, which requires also amending the report with the regulators.

The correct logic here would be to not make it your problem when people forget to put in the data. There is some deadline at which point the data must be submitted; make the database not editable beyond this deadline, because at that point you submit the report so editing the old data does not make sense anyway. Anybody who didn't enter their data in time has to amend it, but they have to amend it with the regulators as well, so don't just let them edit the database and force you to clean up - instead have the people actually prepare the reconciliation process themselves. If it's annoying, people will eventually learn to just submit the data on time rather than then being stuck with the paperwork fo amending the regulatory report.

If the data is genuinely your problem, e.g. the KPIs are important for HR or for management but the individual workers aren't directly affected and don't have any reason to care - then it's still your job to sort it out, socially, and find a way to make people care. For example by making the KPIs affect the actual people so when somebody forgets to submit they get penalised, or by adding your own sanctions like making "filling in the database" an individual KPI and implementing disciplinary action when someone regularly forgets to do it, etc. Whatever makes sense for your actual circumstances.

>his teeth are perfect and he doesn't floss or brush or use interdental
THIS IS PROOF THAT MY TEETH ARE ONLY BAD BECAUSE OF GENETICS

literal injustice

>>108276432
in all seriousness, i think it has a lot to do with your diet. I know a lot of people who drink cola/eat sweets and their teeth are fucked, they're getting fillings monthly. I eat hardly any processed food which helps.

anyway my teeth aren't perfect in general, just no plaque/tooth decay after brushing once a day.

>>108276498
AFAIK cola is particularly horrible because it's also really acidic. Sweets definitely are bad for your teeth but shit like coke is on another level.

I have changed my PC from English (UK) to German to help my learning. All my games work fine (online and offline), however playing Battlefield 1 just kills my internet device completely. I have to restarted it, reinstalled the wifi driver from Intel, deinstalled and restarted the driver. But BF1 just kills it. Any idea what's going on?

>>108276569
>Any idea what's going on?
Check the logs for clues?

Must confess. It's been a while. But I don't seem to recall these effects. Potentially whatever infection is embedded with doesn't care about being noticed and eats all your intelliwebs? It'd be old enough to be that stupid...

What sort of cool things can I do with ADB?

The tool that allows you to control your Android phone through CLI on computer.

>>108276516
I avoid sweets and soda, brush multiple times a day and floss quite regularly and still get plaque build up after a few months. Lost the lottery in that regard i guess. It never hurts though and if you have the means it's easy to get rid of long before it starts damaging your teeth health.

first off, you're probably not going to be a massive cross-domain expert, you should pick one career path and focus on it. that's not to say don't learn other stuff, but pick a focus.

then just start doing shit. i'm in these threads partially because i'm between jobs and helping other people with stuff is a way to expose me to new problems and practice my skills. it's easier to remember terms when you've had practical real world examples to tie them to.

problem solving, time management, prioritization, critical thinking, LATERAL thinking; these are really the core skills of most technology-related fields. being able to quickly and effectively work around a problem while you continue to investigate and root cause it is more important than memorizing terms or pinouts or whatever, shit you can just look up in ten seconds.

Pokemon Gold, Silver, and Crystal versions use the same battery to maintain the save file in RAM as well as keeping track of the in-game real time clock function when the game is turned off. Because of this, those games are far more likely to lose their save game data compared to the earlier Red, Blue, and Yellow versions, which don't have a clock.

Windows 10's explorer doesn't automatically refresh when something is changed inside a folder. I have to right click -> refresh whenever I download or delete files in a folder for it to actually show that said files are (or are no longer) there. How to fix?

>>108276851
I think it's kind of black magic depending on what YT does. It depends on your IP, your account, your cookies. You can try using a VPN or not, or going to a different IP (e.g. mobile roaming), try signed-in cookies if you have an account, try signed out cookies if you were using signed in ones, try signed-out cookies from different browsers.
Like unironically sometimes my home IP gets throttled to shit and using my VPN actually makes the video loads faster, even though normally VPNs make it worse. Sometimes using signed-in cookies triggers restrictions where using signed-out cookies doesn't. It's completely random based on wtf the algorithm is smoking.

sfc /scannow as admin

if you installed any updates just before this started happening, google the kb for each one and see if anyone's reporting problems with it. i think i remember one of the recent updates caused some explorer issues but i don't know if they're the ones you're having.

I always get recommended sfc /scannow but I've never had it do dickens so I found another command with the same issue but you might as well give it a whirl.

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Run from top to bottom.
Alternatively you could try making a new admin account just to see if it changes anything.

>>108277642
/restorehealth (which i believe implies the previous two and will do them anyway) checks and repairs the winsxs component store. sfc checks your current live system files and if it finds problems pulls from the component store to fix the problem.

if sfc /scannow gives you the "couldn't repair files" error, you want to use your third dism command, let it finish, and then rerun sfc /scannow. otherwise, it's generally not necessary or useful to run. plus it often takes a lot longer (and the timer can hang for a very long time at 61% so you don't know how far along it actually is).

sfc isn't a panacea and won't fix the vast majority of issues. the reason it's cited as a "try this first" is because if system files are corrupt, which does happen especially if you're like me and work in IT and deal with a huge volume of problems, you can end up spending days going down a rabbit hole of complete bullshit that won't get you anywhere when you could have just caught it early with sfc.

It's the HDD cartel's term, so it means whatever they say it does. The fact that they're openly acting as a cartel by changing all their product lines in lock-step, even using the same nomenclature, should porbably have the FTC's hair up.

In windows 10, is there a way to reduce the opacity of an image that you're dragging? I can't read what's under this.

it's not impossible but you're lucky. if you want to keep the save you'd better do it sooner than later

What am I supposed to drink instead? I normally drink only water, I only have cola during a short 1-3 hour window when I'm eating lunch, only once a day.

>Tho, I'd personally suggest grabbin' a Pi
I wasn't sure what do you mean, but I suppose you mean Raspberry Pi. It seems it needs quite bit of setup.
Anyway I fucked up. I decided to rush things because I wanted to watch stuff from USB on TV instead of laptop and I went to store. I went to those small shop instead of those big chain one for some ungodly reason(familiarity? Supporting small businesses?). I sort of forgot half the stuff I wanted in it(ability to play from USB, I kinda thought it will detect the one on TV or some extra Bluetooth stuff so I could send apk files from phone). The shopkeeper pretty much pushed Xiaomi Mi tv stick on me and said everyone are taking it.
Now I have a piece of non-returnable crap that does the same shit as my cheap shit smart tv, but a bit faster. No USB slots for storage stick nor for mouse connector. It's a limited Android, so Google play is a joke. God, I hate corporations.
Guess I will just watch anime on the laptop for now, it's much simpler and it's already a big step up from streaming on the phone.
