why do say it's shit?

Is this motherboard failure? I blacklisted all of the addresses I could get from memtest, but what's weird is the number of faulty addresses seems to be increasing by the day. I recently got another undebuggable problem like that, popped into memtest and found 9 new faulty addresses that I didn't note down in my previous 8 runs.

new macfag here, is it possible in any way to install a new version of osx on an unsupported mac?

Can you just updata a Kitkat phone to a lollipop without having to wait for the Company's update? is it safe?

you cant "just update"
you can switch to rom like CM that is based on android 5
if they made ROM for your phone

Pic extremely related, I have no idea where to go to create a theme or even to get gnome to do anything.

How do I pimp my GUI?

are you a weeaboo?

So I swapped motherboard while maintaining the same Windows installation.

Is there a way to remove old driver files, when the original hardware is not there?

Are you unemployed?

no
also do clean reinstall

Im new at phone tweaks and stuff tho ive already rooted my phone...tried googling if theres any update but still none..also not even sure if my phone has alot of roms to switch for...its just running on 4.4

at what point would you think its a good idea to fucking drop the name of your phone so we can do 1 min google and see whats available?

No I hate that part, I love the level of customization though.

Cherry Mobile Flare XL

Do Maki likes it in the butt?

well then
theres a good subreddit

/r/unixporn

go there, order by top, check what you like, in comments you find the name of themes they use, icons themes and all the customization they did, well not always but most of the time...

well, not a common phone when it does not even have gsmarena page

anyway, google its name + custom rom

here seems to be claim of an official rom android 5.1

needrom.com/download/cherry-flare-xl-plus/

>needrom.com/download/cherry-flare-xl-plus/

Is there a better way to do this type of thing in java/html?
I'm displaying overlays on an image based on the current time in the hour, with 9 different images
is 9 separate if statements the neatest way to do it?
I was going to do switch|case but all the places I'm looking say to use if statements for a range instead of cases

Based on the comments most of it says it doesnt work...also only works with specified version of XL Plus.... this suck im stuck with KitKat.

I'm fucking clueless on RAM. I have 2x 4gb Corsair CT51264BA160BJ and want to upgrade. Should I get two more of the same card, mix and match or get completely new cards?

1. very likely you dont need to upgrade
2. its available cheaply, so no reason to go for something, assuming you have 4 slots for ram

remember you are buying DDR3 that is already depricated

>2. its available cheaply, so no reason to go for something, assuming you have 4 slots for ram

fix:

2. its available cheaply, so no reason to go for something else, assuming you have 4 slots for ram

Might as well get the same one if they're not above the average price

It's currently sitting on a price tag of £14. I'm just unsure if there is any point upgrading, because it feels like I should as it's currently sitting at 40% usage with 3 tabs and steam open

That doesn't really mean anything
If you're actually running out of memory then it might be worth it but idle RAM usage isn't really indicative.

How will I know if I'm running out of RAM

Your computer will tell you

You dont need more than 8GB of RAM

Time based location multiplier.

oneechan won't let me scale the mascots down can anyone help

>2x4GiB
you're fine.

Anyone know how to make a batch script in Windows wait for one command to finish before running the next ?

I'm trying to make a script that uses imagemagick's mogrify command to convert a bunch of images, and then delete the originals. I've verified that both of my commands work on their own, but when I put them in a .bat file the images are deleted before mogrify finishes.

mogrify -format jpg -quality 95% -path "W:\Dropbox\Public\overwatch" *.bmp
del /s /q /f *.bmp

I did google a bit, but found like 10 different answers and couldn't find one that works. Anyone ?

serverfault.com/a/245394

irfanview is really good for batch image conversion/resizing and stuff if you need it in future

switch to powershell
especially for small shit like this
to get accustom to it, then later if you will need something bigger you will have powerful tool...

>recommending irfanview instead of imagemagick
the fuck user, are you high

Thanks !
But it turned out that % needs an escape character when run in a .bat file, and that's why it didn't work. I solved the problem by doing this instead:

mogrify -format jpg -quality 95%% -path "W:\Dropbox\Public\overwatch" *.bmp
del /s /q /f *.bmp

I am dumb. Now I'm a little less dumb.

I think I'd prefer to use WSL for bigger things, really.

Nigga you dumb.

>I think I'd prefer to use WSL for bigger things, really.

wsl?
google says - Windows Subsystem for Linux?
yeah, I dont think you would be much help with registry thinkering and active directory things...

never tried imagemagick before, I'll note it down for next time
I just use irfanview because thats what I view my images in anyway

>Nigga you dumb.
yeah sorry
not paying attention

also does anyone know what format I should be using in java/html for this to work?
I want the [i] to be looped
e.g. inner0, inner1, inner2

for(i = 0; i < 10; i++){
document.getElementById("inner"+i).innerHTML = ""


I'm just trying to clear all the elements

And ?

While WSL may not be able to interact with the registry, it is certainly able to interact with Windows' file system. This gives me access to the same Linux/UNIX tools, that I'm used to on my servers/laptop, on my Windows 10 machine.

Powershell is a good tool that has its uses in registry tinkering and suchlike, but WSL can handle most general purpose operations just fine.

ideally you want to delete the original only if the conversion program exits successfully
programs often return an "exit code", where "0" means no error, and anything else being some kind of error

pic related

it gives you nothing more than batch files
and just simple task as installing 7zip and changing settings in registry will become pain in the ass
I am all for linux
but I am more for right tool for the right task

Code tags on Sup Forums?

int main () {
int poo = 1;
Loo(poo);

}

Is fosshub safe to use?

My PSU has this annoying coil whine when fps raised above 100 or so, but now it also whines randomly when just web browsing. Should I be worried?

in the sense that its going to die/burn
no
in sense that its annoying?
yeah

Would it be possible to run an android app on windows?

Why is my screen all black?
I've tried different monitors with different types of cable but nothing gets a video signal for my computer.

Yes and no
you need something like bluestacks, which you install on windows

That's not what I meant.
Ah forget it, it was a stupid idea.

ok, thanks

Should I try disconnecting the gpu and connecting the monitor to the motherboard to try the integrated graphics instead?

I have a few questions :
1. Is it worth to wait and see what the new AMD/Intel processors are going to be, or should I just buy an i7 6700 now?
2. Can I use the i7 6700 without a Z motherboard?
3. Does CUDA help with After Effects & Cinema 4D rendering speeds? I've been an ATI & AMD Graphics Card user all my life so I have no clue.
4. What's a good CPU Cooler below 100USD(can be air and water) that has a maximum height of 148mm?

Cheers.

Does Python call the function on assignment?

Some example cases
a = 1 + 2
a = add(1, 2)
a = lambda: 1+2

yes, that happened to me once, to fix I booted into mobo graphics and deleted & reinstalled drivers

try that, if it doesn't work install gentoo

Regarding MBR on linux.
It's all the same for different OS, Right?
I think I may have missed up my MBR while backing it up.
How would I fix it?
Will booting a live season of ubuntu would fix an arch based OS?

recommended search engine?
not google or the cuckcuckgo

I make almost half of that working as a cash register and and im pretty comfy.

startpage or google

don't use duckduckgo at all, i don't remember the reason anymore but it was 3 years ago that it became unreliable

chroot into your system and run grub-install /dev/sdz (change sdz to suit)

>MBR
>an arch based OS?
you boot arch from iso

you mount your system partition in to mnt
then chroot in and reinstall grub
arch-chroot /mnt
grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

i need to get something my parents could use for as long as possible

do you all think the optiplex 790 small form is a reliable choice? they come with i5 2nd gen, i am thinking of swapping out ram with 8gb and putting in a spare cheap ssd I have with ubuntu

one of these units goes for $160 on ebay

Should i take a 40 aud loss to swap my gigabyte z170n wifi for an asus z170 i pro gaming? Im thinking of swapping because of the increased abilit to overclock my i5 6600k, and im hoping it will behave better with my m2 950 pro. Plus usb 3.1 is always a plus

>dell
sure

>ebay
huh?

build yourself for some $250

i know how to build a PC of course, but would it be worth it to buy a million parts if I'm trying to come up with a budget solution?

for $40 it sounds pretty nice
I think thats like $15 in us dollar moneys

but dont expect any real changes
no your ssd wont go faster, and no you wont be able to OC 300MHz more

It might be a weirder problem.
It didn't work before either. It always froze and shut down shortly after getting into windows.

Ok, why chroot is important in this?
Isn't the MBR is the first bits of the HDD?
Or because it miss up the GRUB as well?

yes, because you get reliability of parts you choose

and its like 6 components

case
psu
mobo
cpu
ram
ssd

Best free virtualization software?

Just finished ordering all of the parts for my first build.

Is is safe to keep my pc next to a window? I ask because it gets pretty cold near the windows in the place I live and I was wondering if there was any concern of condensation or something like that.
