/SQT/ & /QTDDTOT/ Stupid Question Thread

Didn't see one so I thought I would make one for my own terrible question.

Simple question, should I?

I'm just looking for the best bang for my buck large as hell HDD to store movies and crap on.

I wont have any games on it, so as far as I know speed isn't a big deal (right?). It will be nothing but PDFs, movies, and other non-active crap.

I'm currently trying to decide between it and a WD blue 6TB for $199 since it has much better reviews.

Open to suggestions though, I know just about nothing.

I checked SQT on the catalog and didn't see anything, my bad.

I am having some weird issues. I have a wifi modem setup. Internet is connected and when phones connect to the wifi they can get through fine.

However an ipad and a laptop (thinkpad with win10) are both unable to get internet. They will connect to the wifi but it just says "No Internet, secured."

Anybody know what could be going on? I am literally on the other side of the planet from these people and cannot speak the language the modem so it is a bit tricky trying to troubleshoot this.

guy with the German windows 7 here from the last thread, everything was going ok until I tried to install a certain driver to the computer.

after the restart my mouse no longer works and neither does my keyboard. they both have lights and neither turns on.

putting the computer in a certain safe mode, don't know which, its in german, allows me to use the mouse and keyboard again and I can use the mouse and keyboard just fine in bios as well

I tried a super simple usb mouse and it still wouldn't work

the mouse I was using before had a super faint flutter of light when I pressed down the left click key but still didn't didn't light up after

Is it dying?

Let this thread die, the real sqt is

i have 2 1080p monitors and i feel like i get fps lag whenever i do something sometimes like watch netflix or have chrome open with a game on the side. i have a gtx 660. would upgrading my gpu fix this or is it just Shitdows 10?

You're a piece of shit

Does anyone have a Z210? Looking for an aftermarket cooler and I'm not really sure if a backplate fits behind the motherboard. Also difference between CM 212 Evo and 412S? Thanks!

Does it do the same with different drivers?

Do you enjoy shitting up the board?

SQT's arent made by holy thread makers they are made by random people like you and me. if you have a question yourself you should make the thread (after refreshing Sup Forums in another tab to be sure there isnt one made the second before) and later on post your question in the thread instead of in the leading post. thank you

You bitch about the thread, yet you just fucking necroed it from almost dying.

Kill yourself.

Bump

I bitch about the thread? when babe, tell me

yeaaah thats right ignore me because oyu know I was right

Kill you'reself

What's a good website to download apks for free, specifically I want to try nova launcher

Bump

I'm used to using my 16:10 monitor and want to get another, problem is I don't find it worth upgrading from 1680x1050 to 1920x1200. Should I just go ahead and get it at that resolution anyway? The biggest resolution of 16:10 I can find are all pretty expensive.

Bump

how do u reinstall windows 10.

Sudo reinstall

My internet stopped working for certain websites and I don't know why. I think my ISP may have fucked up as they messed up on switching an internet plan, but I don't know how this could have resulted from it.

I've tried switching to google DNS with same result. Sometimes I can ping google and sometimes I can't, it's almost random. Just now captcha isn't loading so I'll have to wait however long before I can post..

Whats a good OS to put on a shitty old pc with pentium 4 and 2gb ram?

arch if you have a couple of days. xubuntu if you don't.

Hey if i upgrade my pirated win 7 to win 10
1) will i have to install all drivers again(every single one)
2) will all my .exe become obsolete and i will have to uninstall them and then reinstall(like steam, afterburner, games)
3) will my C drive(windows drive) get formatted

How big of a screen do I need to take advantage of 4K?

What's a good starting salary for a recent CS grad?

Depends which country, state and uni

US of A, looking to stay in the south, top 10 for CS.

How come ?
Isn't windows 10 completely new windows, so don't i have to install win 10 drivers for everything
Also how come my executables will still work ?
Is win 10 just a dlc type shit for win 7 where everything remains same ?

Why is 24 hour pizza delivery so rare?

windows 10 is backwards compatible with windows registry system, file system, drivers, file format, memory management, boot process, etc
it's the same OS man, just a new version..

Why can't I access a website except the root directory through an SSH tunnel? I only have to get access to a single intranet website so I don't want to use dynamic port forwarding.

what does that even mean?

Can someone give me a sanity check on this build? I'll be waiting for more 1080 cards to come out before ordering anything, but basically I need a powerful setup that is in a small form factor (mITX) and relatively quiet (I'm hoping the Nepton fulfills this, but I've never messed with water cooling before).

can't find anything wrong with this build. real good user

Is there anyway to get 4chanx working on qupzilla? I really like this browser. I know you can get it on Midori but Midori always crashes on my system.

Also, how can I get image previews when I am shit posting, thanks.

sure thing
just enable greasemonkey in settings/addons
then go to Sup Forums-x.net/ and click install for firefox greasemonkey

Nobody wants to deliver pizzas in the middle of the night.

Thanks!

How should I cut my hair for maximum headphone comfort and efficiency?

Is it possible to get MediaMonkey to work with the volume rocker on my K70?

Why is the www neeeded at all? Are there urls in wich i wouldnt use it?
In a pattern like protocol//www.domani.com etc
The protocol part is called "schema", then there is the domain part etc.
Whats the name of the part where you put the www?

www is not needed at all.
it's just a subdomain like boards.Sup Forums.org.

Can someone help me choose between buying an Android tv box from Gearbest(~30€) with Android 5.1 and sd card entry or a rbpi 3 (~60) ? My main objective is to install Kodi to get the tv channels of my country for my parents and genesis so that I can watch movies and series. On one hand the Android box is much cheaper but it comes all bloated it's only Android, on the other hand in the rbpi3 I can install any Linux distro and use it as a computer if I need to.
What are your opinions? Thanks

Is Broadwell-E just a meme?

Should I still get a 5820k in TYOOL 2016.5?

How can I do this on winblows?

>install ubuntu 15
>3 moths later it's still asking me to download updates every other day that are ~100MB

What the fuck Sup Forums? If linux is so good why does it need to be updated every day?

right click a directory -> customize -> change icon

But I can't pick picture files, only *.ico

convert the image to an icon dumbass

>>install ubuntu 15
>If linux is so good

why do you fucking retards always do this

>hey Sup Forums if windows is so good why is xp so vulnerable? :^) BTFO

if you want an actual answer maybe tell us WHAT packages are being updated so often, because it sounds like you've enabled a testing repo for whatever reason

>why does it need to be updated every day?

would you prefer windows style of updates where you might get a security update on a tuesday if you're lucky and *old* recommended updates for things like drivers? yeah, didn't think so

5820k is a solid chip but you were better off getting it before the 6700k launch/broadwell-e announcement which hiked the prices up

>Why is the www neeeded at all?

it's not needed at all but back in ye olden days a parent domain might have been pointing to a non-web service such as ftp and a browser lacking ftp support might not have done anything with the domain, ergo www. for web server, ftp. for ftp service etc

but if you're using the domain for multiple things www. pointing explicitly to a web server might be useful in some scenarios

>Whats the name of the part where you put the www?

subdomain

the card might not fit in a mini-itx case you'll have to check the supported card dimensions but otherwise it's the typical ~$1,000 build what sort of criticism were you expecting

you have some funky firewall config setup somewhere on the machine you're sshing into

let's try and solve the nonfree js pizza issue first user, baby steps

any gnu/linux distro with a lightweight DE or just a window manager/panel or something

if you don't care about putting the box on a network and don't want a gnu/linux distro then just use whatever windows version it came with

1680x1050 > 1920x1200 is hardly an upgrade, it's up to you if you want that or something like 1440p, 16:10 is sadly a huge premium nowadays

questions that don't deserve their own threads

Why the fuck is every motherboard manufacturer using realtek shit sound now?
I used to have mid-high-tier AM2 motherboard with Analog Devices SoundMax integrated and sound quality was more than good enough for my collection of /hpg/-approved bargain bin shit.
Now I've been forced to use some top-tier Z97 motherboard and the sound is so shit I literally can't watch anime or play vidya until I get some decent dac.

Also have some issues with asmedia and intel sata controllers and kinda missing "AI NET" lan cable testing feature, I mean in the 4 months since I've been using new motherboard I had 3 cases where it would have been very useful. Maybe I should just repair my old space heater. /blog

Can we please stop with the QTDDTOT title?
That's a /fit/ thing and the thread has always been called /sqt/ on this board.

So I'm thinking of trying to learn a language this summer (I have no programming experience at all) and I decided on Python.
Is that a good first language to learn and if so what are some good resources I can use to learn it?

there were qtddtot threads long before they became sqt threads.

SQL problem
Any idea of a reason why last_insert_id() wouldn't return anything at all ?

I don't have any problem in my table since I can select the last entry with its Id...

So on certain networks (e.g., public library) I can neither connect to my server via ssh (usual port) or even make use of my openVPN setup. I can initialize my setup and I can ping IPs like 8.8.8.8, but I can't get it to resolve hostnames like google.com
Any ideas? I care more about the VPN thing since presumably I can just work from there.

outgoing firewall

are you actually using autoincrement?
transaction?
post the query

Probably a DNS filter

Anything I can do about it?

How do install the latest version of chromium? I'm running ubuntu gnome 16.04

Yeah it's auto_incremented.
I don't need to use a transaction. I launched this query "SELECT Id from employe WHERE Id =last_insert_id();" from Java.

I just used SELECT MAX(Id) FROM employe; wich works just fine. But I want to know why it doesn't work in my databse.

you can check for open ports using portquiz.net

NB_CONNECTION=10
PORT_START=1
PORT_END=1000

for (( i=$PORT_START; i /dev/null && echo "> $j") &
done
wait
done

are you using the same connection of your insert?
last_insert_id is connection based.
if you are selecting using a new connection last_insert_id will return nothing.

Yeah I do.
I even tested the query directly in my databse, and and it doesn't return anything either.

but did you insert something before on the same connection?
are you sure your insert and select were on the same connection? make sure your editor doesn't open a new connection for each query.

Where can I get Daz Loader?

Is there a music equivalent to popcorn time? specifically bittorrent based music streaming. it almost seems like such an obvious idea that I'm surprised I haven't been able to find it.

Goyim, I need your help.

If I use genymotion, do they see what kind of shit I run and install on the VM?

I'm too poor to afford a freelancer license and I want to use the free version for my project I intend to make shekels with.

What command do I need to automatically agree when apt-get is asking me? I remember it being --Y or --force or something like that, but it doesn't seem to work anymore for me. Or I suffer from amnesia and forgot or something.

E.g. sudo apt-get install inxi
and then it asks if I'm sure and I do not want it to ask me to enter y/Y manually.
Ya dig?

Either you download it as a .deb package or simply via the apt-get way.

Iron is a debotnetted fork of Chromium btw.
Have used it for a while but got too annoyed and went back to FF. FF (and it's forks) a best.

apt-get -y install inxi

why not just use spotify? if you use dan pollock's hosts file, there aren't any ads.
