I have a telecom job (call centre drone) and need to tell the employer how well I can troubleshoot and work with computers
Considering that today I: installed windows 11 pro and updated the driver for my GPU, after it was stuck in low resolution; cleaned my hard drives after a botched clean in Windows 10, then use the prompt "clean disk" (after they were not able to install linux mint or pop! os) through the command prompt, then salvaged my new hard drive (which was booted with windows 11 pro iso image file) through disk management settings... what would you rate my technology skills? Be honest, I don't mind if it's low, but I want to learn how to get good so I can maintain this job. I hope that I can learn to code or work out IT issues, eventually.

I'd say maybe 2 or 3 out of 10? The things you listed, I can think of normies who wouldn't have any idea where to start if you asked them to do that but in the grand scheme of things, it's all very basic

>>108613394
it's more than the average person, but not more than an interested 12 year old.
it depends on the job requirements, if no specific knowledge was requested then i'd say the requirements are quite low and if you can "google" shit well enough you can probably handle it

Just want to ask how I can bypass this faggot shit to verify my fucking email. Maybe I'm just being retarded right now because I have no sleep but 99% of the time I have no fucking clue what the answer is. I just want to get a fucking email verification. I've done this several times now and twice got the email, but after you get the damned email you have to do the same captcha shit again, and I keep running my chances out till it fucking expires. That's the kind of shit that makes you want to kill someone. I now have to wait 43 minutes before I can do it again.

have you tried being human?

>>108613394
Yeah like the other anon said, more than an average person. Lots of normies treat computers like literal magic and their brain shuts down when something doesn't work. What you did is all pretty basic and simple but it does put you above the average normalfag in that sense.

However my question to you is, how much of that did you figure out on the fly (by googling, trying things, etc.) vs. how much of this would you consider an actual "skill" that you had learned previously and already knew how to do? In my opinion, in your position the greatest skill you might demonstrate and develop is the ability to learn and figure out things quickly. If you had never used disk management before or never did "clean disk" and figured it out on the fly, it probably means next time you have some unfamiliar situation you'll also be able to figure it out. But if you just happened to know how disk management works and how to do this exact shit, then it doesn't speak anything about your ability to adapt, only about your specific knowledge here and like the other anons said it's pretty shallow.

My bad it's a piss easy IQ test, I'm just being a boneheaed faggot laul. It's actually good they made it like that I just thought I was getting fucked with for a moment.

Is there a way to get animated gifs in the Windows file picker?

I'm using duckduckgo to impress a woman I like but it's such a shit search engine

>>108613786
I have more luck with qwant, I also use mojeek but the latter is only good for very basic searches or if you want to find cool older web 1.0 stuff

Is there an easy way to download youtube videos that require signing in? yt-dlp has some cookies approach but that's a pain in the ass. Website based downloaders don't seem to work for those videos that require sign in.

Cuck wagie here. I'm using the Mobile Hotspot option on Win11 to connect my phome to this very Laotian boat-carving website. I have also downloaded many a torrents before, but since switching to newet laptops, I can't anymore. I'm on-site. Its a public service office.
Can my employer snoop the URLs, images, or torrent contents I have visited or downloaded on my phone?
On that note, I extensively browse sfw shit like vidya sites, news, tvtropes, a bit of YT on said laptop.
How fucked am I on both fronts?

Someone help me out I can't install the final update of windows 10 cause my c drive is full, how do I clean it and free up space?

>>108615375
You could take a look with something like wiztree to see what's eating up the space. There's often surprising temp files and other crap that builds up over the years. Don't go deleting just anything though.

I'm not defending duckduckgo but it's better than getting 8 different reddit links in search results.

Nevermind I thought I recongnized what might have been a consistent pattern that I might have overlooked, but it appears, I didn't. It's still very unclear.and I confirmed it's not even correct sometimes. It's a fucking scam to sell 4chan passes.

>>108615985
Nevermind again. I got it.

watch a free video series for comptia a+ or similar. some of the info is questionable or worthless, like nobody's going to expect or need you to remember port numbers unless you're working with them on a regular basis (it takes five seconds to look them up and if you work with them frequently you'll start to remember them very quickly), but it's at least a somewhat standard "basic it knowledge" that lets employers know what to expect. plus the videos at least are free and the cert is useful if you get laid off or something.

check with your employer too, some employers will pay for you to get certs. some even offer incentives. if you want to advance in IT, certs are also a good starting point.

Is it okay if I use Google ai search on Tor in Tor browser author logging in?

How does this work for privacy?

>>108616845
>>108616863
It's probably the best way to use google anything. They will try to fingerprint you as much as possible, but Tor Browser is built to be as fingerprinting-resistant as possible, so ideally they will only see "some tor user is connecting" and nothing any more interesting.
The only issue is that I bet you need to enable javascript to use it, and there's no guarantee that the Tor Browser is 100% perfect at preventing fingerprinting. They might possibly be able to gather some data, because javascript is incredibly powerful and browsers have five trillion APIs that can be used by javascript to gather datapoints and Tor Browser is only made by humans.

Also I'm not sure if it will even work, everyone blocks the fuck out of Tor nowadays.

Is that Windows 11 doing it's bullshit again or did I end up with a virus already?

I'm using a jcally jm12 with truthear hexa on an s25 fe. It works fine but every now and then my cell service just completely cuts out. It comes back fairly easily but is it being caused by my dac? Is that even possible?

places like gumroad have a cool thing where you can set something you're selling to have a default/suggested amount you can pay, but is also something the user can freely change to being free (e.g. a text box that has a default price of $10, but is editable to $0).

is it possible to do something like this with crypto? is it just simple html or is there anything more to this? a guide on setting up crypto for personal websites would also be appreciated.
