I'm looking to build a new computer using the smallest case I can. I've compiled a small list of cases less than 30 liters that support a (generally full-length) GPU. Is there any good ones that I've missed?

How would I go about decrypting and ripping js module images that are binary/octet-stream? It's from a web reader. octet-stream means it needs an application such as a browser, right?

Check how their front-end parses the data. If it's just sent to a canvas, then canvas.toDataURL("image/png")

I know there's a bunch of Define R5 users here. What don't you like about this case?

Heil

first

MY KEYBOARD IS BROKEN AND NOW I CANNOT TURN CAPS LOCK OFF. WHAT SHOULD I DO? THIS IS VERY IRRITATING.

I'm an audio programmer and I'm interested in learning functional programming b/c knowledge is cool (TM). My concerns are mainly performance. Which language would you guys recommend for someone looking to write audio applications in a functional paradigm?

Wrong thread, that's not a stupid question.

There was one on kickstarter recently.

Trying to install transmission, what's the issue?

I uninstalled the default installation that comes with Lubuntu but now I want Transmission back since Deluge and Qbit are dog shit, did I fuck something up by uninstalling it?

I have a receiver that supports 2160@60 4:4:4 passthrough, a television and HTPC that supports the same, and cabling rated to 22.5Gbps. Bizarrely, I cannot get the HTPC (Fedora, Gnome 3, kernel-supplied Intel drivers) to recognize the display supports 4k at all, except on the login screen, when plugged in through the receiver. Works perfectly fine when plugged into the television directly.

Is there some service, post-authentication, that might be causing this issue?

Is 745$ for this pre built a decent price?

Then what should I post in? guts or just my own?

Yeah, that's the first one listed. It is quite small, but my gpu is just 2/3rd an inch too long. It also doesn't support a 3.5" drive, and is very expensive.

Any advice/insight on watercooling ?

My CPU is starting to overheat like crazy and I'm considering trying it
Not too much of a hassle ? Any good brand ? Anything ?

Show at 999$ for me
If it's at 745, it's decent

Not possible in Fiddler? Guess I need to try and learn some Java.

Bought it off a dude from Reddit.

>Reddit
Better nuke the drive before using it.

Will an AMD CPU please my AMD GPU more than an Intel counterpart?

compare to pcpartpicker:
pcpartpicker.com/list/2Whscc

I tried to get close to the parts. If it's $745 then it's pretty good.

>Bought it off a dude from Reddit.
Oh... is it used? If it's brand new, then that's good. If used it's not.

I doubt it. I mean it really matters what file format it's sending, but unless it's a perfect image or pdf that you can save, there is some tracing you'll have to deal with to figure out how they are displaying it.

I built my computer a few years ago with a really shitty budget and am looking to upgrade now. It currently has an AMD FX-6300 as the cpu, and I was wandering if it would probably be better to buy a new motherboard and get an intel processor and spend less on a gpu, or just get one of the newer am3+ cpus. Thoughts? My budget is around $450

What wireless mouse should I get?

How to run 1990s 16 bits program in 64bits windows?

Also, how can I recall a question that I want to asj but being forgotten?

and repost:

i. Is there any material that can quickly cooldown a phone externally and is portable?

ii. I am currently subscribing to two different mobile operators' unlimited UMTS plan. Is there anyway to aggregate their bandwidth on my amdroid dualsim phone?

Phones don't like to be cooled rapidly. It's not good for glass or radios.

>How to run 1990s 16 bits program in 64bits windows?
run windows 3.1 inside dosbox

protip: wine on 64bit linux can run 16bit windows programs directly

>Is there anyway to aggregate their bandwidth on my amdroid dualsim phone?
As this is a very difficult setup even for desktop computers to do, I doubt it.

Dosbox.

Hey, does anyone have any good, cheap recommendations for those little flat fans that plug in to a USB and sit under your laptop? My third one just broke and I'm getting sick of this shit.

No, but shilling for AMD on Sup Forums will.

min req. for said program is 98SE

By "quickly", I mean down from 65°C to 40°C in one or two minutes.

How do you pronounce Geneforge?

>min req. for said program is 98SE
then it's not a 16bit application

chances are only the installer is 16bit

For the next few months I'm stuck using a shitty usb network adapter instead of my normal wired connection. Does anyone have any clue on where to look for linux drivers for it? The model seems uncommon so I think I might just be stuck with windows until I move.

Why do colors look to be at different depths on my IPS and SUPERDUPERAMOLED displays? Are they? Or is it an optimal delusion?

g'en-f orgy

I have a windows 10 pro activated from a windows 8 legit copy, is there any way I can use the key to revert to windows 7?

Possible, but the problem still remain

Also, the said program use DirectX 6

what game?

Where should I start looking for a vertical or rotating LCD monitor?

No. Windows 7 was never on your drive.

You put a rolly stand on any monitor with VESA screw holes. Some come with good stands like that. Such as Dell Ultrasharp. I like how it lets me turn off the power indicator LED so I don't need to cover it with tape.

>便利商店精裝版

Ah, it actually aupport Win95 too

But be aware some stands are really flimsy feeling creaky shit that doesn't turn smoothly, like the 3M I got.

Tell me why I should not to change from Fedora to Ubuntu or Xubuntu? Which OS is better? Ubuntu or Xubuntu give me more driver compatibility or? I can better upgrade the desktop design and shell design? Normally I do networking and programming with my laptop. So tell me pls. Pic not related.

Ok, what is the least shitty way of activating win7 without a legit key?

I like the .deb bistros because they have much larger official repositories so I don't need to set up third party unsigned stuff. I only bother with .rpm when I need to run enterprise software supported only on RHEL/CentOS, or it's the year 2003.

I'm trying to mine ether but geth won't let me enter anything

yeah, you are right with that! 1:0 for Ubuntu.

a convenience store simulator?

fair enough, kinda tricky to find a download for it considering i can't read any search results, but this screenshot i found shows it running in windows 7

I'm trying to fucking mine ethereum on the main network butwhen I try to use geth it won't let my enter anything

How the fuck do I even mine ether

You could get that skinner box commodity in less time working any minimum wage job and then just buy it. Or do you enjoy whatever repetitive action it has you perform for it?

Can someone with more experience than me with video card launches give me their best educated guess at when the custom pcb GTX 1070s are going to be common enough to just buy one without waiting for a restock?

What do I do if my motherboard only has a shitty UEFI that has fuck all options with it?

Oh, it's a real neckbeard currency? I assumed this was some WoW shit.

Should i get used 290x or wait till aftermarket 1070 card releases? Specifically evga
Im tired of using onboard graphics

And that's why it probably won't take off.

It run on 32 bit Win7 but not 64 bit Win7. And the computer I want to run the game on is now using Win10.

oh wait, i think i found one (won't know until it's done but the filename matches)

once it finishes downloading i'll test it out in wine (linux 64bit) and win7 64bit

hel[, fucking bitcoin is taking years to update the blockchain

hopefully this copy is good

python (3) stupid question:

I have a set with the form
{"A;B", "A", "C"}

I want to split all the strings within the set into elements and keep it as a set. Something equivalent to:

new_set = set()
for element in set:
split_el = element.split(';')
for el in split_el:
new_set.update(el)

My intended output is {"A","B","C"}

Is there any way to do this in a functional form, or avoiding either loops or list/set comprehension?
Even list/set comprehension would be OK if there's no other way.

Thanks

Stop making your parents pay for so much electricity. You'll earn way more at mcjob.

Yeah, well....
You're.... you're... silly!

What would stop dhcp from working? Dhcp server can see requests, and makes an offer, but the client never sees the offer so can't accept. Checked iptables and no probs there. Could there be a problem with the broadcast address?

well it works in wine

the installer is indeed a 16bit program, which won't run in 64bit windows

Just wait for whatever's the best price/performance GPU in a few weeks.

Most likely it will be a 480 or 970, anything less will struggle with new games honestly

Thus the problem still stand without installation of additional OS/VM

What's the easiest way to convert m4v to mp3?

What is the best linux distro for gaming?

windows

How much will I regret buying a i5 6600k now instead of waiting until the end of the year for kaby lake? For reference I'm upgrading from a 2310

i can also confirm it works in 64bit windows 7
it's only the installer which is 16bit, the game itself is 32bit

this copy i got just so happens to include the CD image as well as pre-installed files, which can be run without using the installer

pic related, the game running in my windows 7 64bit VM

here is the copy i got;

NEET fuck:

Younger brother got a laptop. Now we go over our bandwidth cap. Mom blames me and is replacing our wireless router with one she claims lets her monitor "everything"

Now, ignoring that it'll prove my innocence in the excessive bandwidth use department: What kind of monitoring are we talking here? What're the odds it'll it reveal specific URLs accessed vs just bulk data like how much is used by each MAC address?

While I'm going to do my damnedest to get the administrator password, if that's not possible I need to know whether it's time to make a determined push to leave this house. There's no way in hell I'm giving anyone I know access to my full internet history [even broadly aggregated data like "your son downloaded X gb of images..." is risky.], but is that a realistic risk?

Thanks.

any ideas?

try it with -f
otherwise use aptitude and let it resolve dependencies for you. why are you not using aptitude in the first place?

Hey lads. Got an important exam coming up and was wondering which property can i apply here? I can't seem to simplify this correctly. The correct simplification result is 1.

can I be a moderately successful software dev if I'm anti-social ?

I have many layers of video scattered in After Effects, what's the best way to organise them without dragging every layer to the beginning of the composition?

Is it arduino or genuino?

Back in early 2010 when I used an arduino for a project it was only arduino

Then there was some sort of epic reddit battle among the dudes and since I had no interest in their neo Stallman tier naming battle I lost interest. I thought the two project were coexisting but making things difficult for people wanting to compile their code on the boards

Then this afternoon I looked again and it seems it's Arduino in USA and Genuino for the rest of the planet...

I had this laptop hard drive and I was trying to figure out what kind of connector it was using. It wasn't SATA, and it wasn't PATA/IDE. I thought it was just some kind of strange proprietary interface.

Then I realized it was just a normal SATA drive with some proprietary cover over the SATA connector that you could just pull off.

I think my external HDD is dead

My power went down due to a storm (just general third world stuff) and when I turned my PC back on, the HDD wasn't showing any data and it asks me if I want to format it, then gives me a cyclic redundancy check error.

On the disk management screen it shows the correct size but apparently the partition is gone (RAW instead of NTFS)

Any chance of me recovering what's inside or it's all gone?

I need the program Find my Font with crack, any help?

Write with SHIFT. Will work ;)

I figured out you can just write out the table of all possibilities (8 of them since 3 variables) and figure out what the expression is with the result.. it's one way to do it

If I'm in Windows, and I have a command line program that asks for a super long password first thing, how can I pipe it in from a text file? I can't find anything that works.

>Any chance of me recovering what's inside or it's all gone?

Yes, testdisk.

>just connected a 16-9 screen to my PC
>watching youtube video
>drag it to my 4:3 screen because of the aspect ratio
>BSOD
is this normal? Win7
also the reason i have a 4:3 screen is that high refresh rate CRTs are cheaper than high refresh rate flatscreens

is this a nonshit business printer that does not fuck you over after printing a few thousand pages?

Can you run color laser printers in b/w mode if the color runs out without replacing the color toners?

Anyone please?

anyone please?
