Simple question thread
>I'll start
I have lines in my vimrc that converts all tabs to spaces
Makefiles use tabs as separators
Does me being a space-indent fag make me unable to into makefiles?
Are there any solutions beside editing my vimrc every time / firing another text editor for the sole purpose of makefiles?

I'm really really bad at organizing my projects and directories so any advice would be appreciated.
I made a web service that has an Android app that connects to it. Right now they are part of two different git repositories. I have one repository for the web component, and one repository for the Android app component. Is this stupid? Should I make one repository for the entire thing, and just make one directory for the web component, and another directory for the Android app component?
Thank you all in advance.

Programming in C++ and I want to make a program that gets the current exchange rates for different currencies. I've read I need to use sockets to do so, but I know next to nothing about getting information about the internet...
Any guides/tips?
Can NZXT Grid+ V2 run 4-pin PWM fans ? Specifically Corsair's ML120/140 fans.

Does anyone have any good resources to get into pen testing?
So ram needs to be same because of dual channel right?
And my motherboard has two different dual channels so do all 4 sticks have to be the same or just the ones who share a dual channel?
I may or may not anything about what I'm asking.
Have you tried smallpdf?
seems nice, thanks!
Since the Pokemon Go craziness got me hard, and since it drains battery like crazy because you need to keep it open, enable gps/mobile data, is there any application/xposed module that disable the screen while detecting if the phone is in pocket? Battery saver function from inside the game disables the map by checking the sensor, but doesn't disable the screen completely. I am searching for something like this. I want everything to run normally, but the backlight or the entire screen to be turned off.
I'm getting a new mouse and this one caught my eye. Filename is the model.
Anyone have it? Would you recommend?
Question about Sup Forums rather than technology.

Are threads about technology careers not Sup Forums?
I have a tplink archer c5 router to replace my old, dusty, shitty router. but, here's the problem: if I plug in two powerline adapters into the Ethernet ports at the same time, the wireless and other Ethernet ports stop working all together. why is this? is this a common problem, or is my unit defective?
Is there any way to get the "recently used" (or was it "recent places"?) location back in the new Firefox file browser for GTK DEs?
Pic related. There used to be a "Recently Used" button at the top left but it disappeared after an update a while back (I guess during the transition to GTK 3). I was hoping it would be restored in some future update but so far it hasn't been, which is disappointing because I used it a lot.
I have a database file containing several example sentences and their translation in another language. So one column is in one language and the other column in the same row is the same sentence in another language.
I was wondering how difficult it would be to make this database accessible/searchable on my phone. If there exists some sort of portable server thing for Android (like XAMPP) I could probably fairly easily make a browser-based interface for doing this, but I'm wondering if it's easier to develop a program for the phone (i know nothing about android development) suggestions?
Hey, I have to make a website for a client and for the first time they don't already have some sort of web hosting. It's a .com domain and don't need more than .5 GB of space. What's the cheapest hosting service for a website like that?
Wait, in my rush to make this post I forgot that it still shows up when you want to select a file to upload (although it hardly shows any folders compared to the old file browser, it only seems to show folders that have recently been created as opposed to recently accessed), but it's never present when you want to save a file for some reason (I suppose that has something to do with what I just mentioned about it not showing recently accessed folders but only recently created ones).
I'm looking at hosting my own server to act as a private cloud, amongst other things. So far I've found seafile and Owncloud, and people seem to be pretty split on them- does Sup Forums have any preference?
My damn phone gives me 2/3 bars of signal strength (40-50%)
I already know there's mobile and car signal boosters, but is there one that I can carry in my backpack or carry WITH me?
I'm trying to do a Reverse Polish Notation Calculator (3 4 + is equal to 7), and I've been running into a problem. I have a function that keeps track of the location of the spaces in a string (in a vector) and the location of the operators.
void RPNEval()
{
std::vector spaceVec = {0}; //Stores spaces (which are used to deliniate different numbers);
std::vector tokenVec; //Stores locations of tokens to use in an RPN calculation
for(int i = 0; i < inputString.length(); i++)
{
if(inputString[i] == ' ')
spaceVec.push_back(i);//Places spaces' positions in a vector
if(inputString[i] == '+' || inputString[i] == '-' ||inputString[i] == '*' || inputString[i] == '/')
tokenVec.push_back(i);//Places tokens'(+, -, *, /) positions in a vector
}
int i = 0; //Keeps track of where the last space before a token is
for(int j = 0; j < spaceVec.size(); j++)
{
if(spaceVec[j] >= (tokenVec[0] - 1)) //If you find the last space before a token
{
std::cout
Maybe you can set up vim so it treats makefiles differently.
I'm trying to convert a .doc file to .epub, but everything I can find keeps adding a newline character, thus breaking literally everything. How could I convert it without that?
why are console wars banned on Sup Forums but gpu brand wars on Sup Forums are fine?
should gpu threads be on Sup Forums?
Anons are always recommending to create "Your own NAS server", rather than buying dedicated HW for that (i.e. qnapi, zyxel, WD, etc.).
For instance I'd like to have 5HDDs x 3TB (best price per TB now) combined into RAID5.
Plus another smaller disk for OS.
I need only two things to learn about here:
- what cases should I look upon?
- what mobo should I look into?
At the beginning I would implement it only on LAN. Too much security issues with opening it outside, as I would need to implement authentication on firewall / gateway.
Is there an adapter for this SSD?
mz-ntd1280/000
I need it to become an mSATA so that I can connect it to my Maximus Gene V mPCIe combo thing.
I'm so confused by all these specifications and shit. I found this:
ebay.com
But when I read this part:
>About Mini PCIe SSD interface standard:
I become dizzy and want to puke.
How does an executable get root as UID when I'm not logged in as root or executing it using sudo?
It's using setuid.
a gpu renders 3d, just because you can abuse this for videogames doesn't mean they belong to Sup Forums

How come this MediaTool for a Windows setup won't let me create one for Windows 10 Professional edition?
I'm looking to install the Pro edition onto my new computer, why won't it let me make a Pro edition iso?
you select that during install, the medium is the same for both.
So just use the standard Windows 10 option?
yes, unless you really hate the media player, then go for N.
Modify ei.cfg file in bootable medium?
Is there am open source alternative to plex?
I want to unlock an old LG GU230, but I don't know if it is possible for free. Its IMEI is 35315704542843100. I tried google, but everything I find is bullshit or fake "free" sites.

where can I find a keyboard similar to this:
but with better ratings?
20% of reviewers indicate a less than OK quality.
I want something that has AT LEAST 12 additional buttons I can use as macros.
Alternatively, where can I get a USB (or PS/2, if necessary) keyboard with 24 function keys?
I already have the UTechSmart Venus Gaming Mouse, but I need a keyboard with more keys. Preferably with macro keys on the left-hand side. That's what REALLY got me about this keyboard.
But alas, a lot of people had a bad experience, like it dying after a month and whatnot.
>TL;DR:
Link me keyboards with LOTS of macro keys, preferably some on the left-hand side.
6 is nowhere near enough. I want to use the macros to open all my frequented programs.
SHOULD have multiple profiles.
What do manufacturers even do when refurbishing disks?
I know how refurbished laptops looke like since i sell them, they replace broken parts, change battery to a new one and there it goes. I don't imagine it's very cost efficient to replace heads or something in a hard drive, then sell it below the market price of a new one.
Can't be simply hdds that someone returned without reason, those are usually sold as OEM or "warehouse surplus" for full price, there had to be something wrong with them.
Pascal laptop when?
I've been using i3 for like 3 years and now with my new monitor setup it has been crashing when I move a floaty window in to certain places (that aren't hard to hit) and resize them. So I'd like to use something else but idk what else to use. I use the proprietary nvidia graphics stack so sway I sadly cannot use.
Is it worth having a general contract drafted for freelance software dev? I've read stories of companies giving freelance devs shit because they paid for a piece of software to be written and think that one off payment ties the dev into general IT troubleshooting, and I think maybe having a contract to refer to can potentially avoid a bunch of hassle.
How long should passwords be? I've heard 16 is by far enough, but I've also heard that 17 is better, and even 23 if you're super paranoid.
>I have lines in my vimrc that converts all tabs to spaces
This is sort of an idiotic thing to do, you could just use a mapping to do this.
If you really don't want to, then remove the hook in filetype/makefile.vim or whatever the filetype is called.
The correct answer is the highest number of characters that you feel comfortable remembering.
a password will be million times harder to crack for each character longer it is
but 16 sounds already a bit overkill
I have passwords ranging from 20--30+ characters, lol.
IDK what this dude is talking about that 16 is enough/overkill. I know one person (not a friend, just a guy I knew) who had a password just to his computer like 128 characters.
Although, DESU, most of my less-important sites only have about 6-10 characters. If I don't really care that much.
Also, my passwords are either made-up words or not in English.
16 is fine unless you're Edward Snowden and your computer gets stolen. You should use a password manager anyways, then they can be as long as you want / the website allows.
>I know one person (not a friend, just a guy I knew) who had a password just to his computer like 128 characters.
The guy you know is a moron.
So I did a real big mistake after formatting a hard drive twice (quick formats) and I did not back up some pictures. How fucked am I? All I did was format, install windows 7, upgrade to 10, then format again. Think recuva will find something?
>The guy you know is a moron.
yeah, he also almost got me in trouble, because I got into a heated debate on Windows VS Linux (him: Linux) in my old college's cafeteria, and he was swearing lots and loud... =/
Hi Sup Forums. Do you guys have books to recommend about IPv6?
> stuck as senior sysadmin for business customers
> zero math / programming ability
what do I need to do/learn that will help me get a better pay/job?
programming (+/-) math would be a good start
nah, but srsly, a couple languages to start with might be Java, C#, and the standard web set (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP).
IDK C#, myself, but I know C++ and Java. And I specialize in Web Dev.
jQuery, btw, is a sexy AF library for JS.
Going to be buying two new monitors. Should I go with the Asus VS228H-P/VS228 21.5-Inch (amazon.com

it still feels like the brightness of the screen changes by itself. am i insane or is there another option i need to turn off?
yes, the one sans-window has noise dampening foam on the inside of the panel.
I did some C#/VB6/ coupla years ago
but I can't code shit, just scraping shit together is all i can do.
i don't know Powershell, but i perform tens of action a week with scraps from google and modifying for my needs (on production vm servers, coz snapshots, right)
Anyone know of a good mousepad site where they print for you?
I did one for a dollar that happens yearly but forget name.2+ years I think I may need a new one
Thanks everyone. I guess I should be pretty good
I'm trying to import a table into mysql workbench from a csv archive but it gives me error 1292 with "datetime"
08/12/1948 00:00 01/05/1992 00:00
19/02/1952 00:00 14/08/1992 00:00
30/08/1963 00:00 01/04/1992 00:00
these are my dates and the columns are datetime
why it won't load?
I'm trying to watch a 10 bit mkv file on linux, using VLC it's choppy as fuck with the occasional green smear so it's intolerable, mpv throws the following error:
>Failed to initialize a video decoder for codec 'hevc'
What do I do now?
Is there any reason a password manager is more secure than an encrypted plain text file?
YYYY/MM/DD homie
what distro? search for hevc codec or such. should be very fiaxble
datetime wants a yyy-mm-dd format, specify the format with
dev.mysql.com
Having a problem with Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) that comes with Win7
I have not changed anything on my system, or installed anything, but over the last week I cannot update the scanning definitions of Microsoft Security Essentials.
Instead I get a message, as shown in my image.
>pic related
Anyone know how to solve this problem? I googled, but no real answer.
Nothing is blocking any connections or anything, so I'm stumped & annoyed.
how do i go about shopping for 12 tray bay servers.
i can't really google it since i get like server jobs like restaurant server and it's kind of hard to filter through without getting to the specifics.
I'm trying to build a server or nas something for plex movies/tvshow/music hosting.
i'm kinda still trying to figure it out so any tips will help.
they usually clear your clipboard after a few seconds, you could forget when copying manually.
also they don't show the password on your screen, I wouldn't want having coworkers to turn around when needing to login somewhere.
It's mint, I've been working on it for a while now and attempted a lot of fixes but the choppiness persists both in VLC and the default Videos player, I couldn't find a relevant fix for mpv however.

Where do people pirate software engineering ebooks these days?
So my laptops HD is failing so i got a new one,both are 1 TB,can i just use cloning software to make things alot easier?
Or am I better of by doing it manually?
My laptop has space for 2 HDs so can i just put in the second one without having to fiddle with extra cables?
cloning software should do it
But do I have to mess around with extra cables or do I just put the new HD into the second slot?
worked
thanks anons
Okay, thanks.
yep, put it there

hi Sup Forums
how can i grab the audio from chirbit?
I recently decided to take the wiki's advice and start using a password manager. Can I only sign into certain sites from MY computer now? Should I only use it on sites and services I only need to access from MY computer? I want a safer password on my google and bank accounts but I need to access those from other computers and sometimes my phone. Is a password manager useless to me?
I have my key file on my ftp server, so I can access it from anywhere with keepass, which also works on android.
nevermind, netvideohunter did the trick
ayy lmao
I ordered a usb wifi adapter with an antennae as my current one has no antennae and constantly drops connection,forcing a modem reboot every other day.
I: didn't expect miracles but I did expect the generic 802.11 adaper to help.
Turns out it was delivered today, and someone else in my apt complex stole it.....
I dont have any money at the moment but in a couple weeks ill have enough to grab another one, this time sending to a different address. keeping budget in mind would you guys think
Anyone?

I'm trying to upgrade an iphone 4 that has ios 7 to ios 9.3.3, from itunes... and it gets stuck in the "itunes" screen. I'm not really sure why it fails, could be a problem with the battery, the cable, the retarded itunes/iphone itself...
wtf can I do to recover it?
