why cant you lazy niggers copypaste the OP text when you make a thread?

i need to make a program that prints the numbers inserted in even position, it's weird cause we still didn't study arrays, but i tried to make it with that little javascript knowledge i had.

why doesn't this shit work

#include

int main(void) {
int nNumbers, number, i, c, nEvens, even = 0;

do {
printf("How many numbers?\n");
scanf("%d", &nNumbers);
} while (nNumbers

what's a Sup Forums approved router? Anything specific I should look for?

first off, use [ code ] tag around your shit
secondly, ask in the fucking programming thread

Preferably a gigabit router...

test

Are you saying you want the numbers printed in an aligned position? If so

>for printf
%d

%6d print as decimal integer, at least 6 characters wide

%f print as floating point

%6f print as floating point, at least 6 characters wide

%.2f print as floating point, 2 characters after decimal point

%6.2f print as floating point, at least 6 wide and 2 after decimal point

anything by linksys

Well, yea, but any routers I should get/stay away from? I currently have a Dlink that I am pretty happy with, but I want an updated router that supports ac

My hard drive isn't spinning and I have no backup. What now?

hire a company to recover data.

or just get a new drive.

Is there a chart of what ear buds are worth getting?

Which one is better for Windows guest machine, VirtualBox or VMWare?

Stupid question,

I used to run a discreet HTPC, I gave it to a friend as a gayman PC with some old parts added.

Now after finding my laptop annoying to use as an HTPC part time I want to build a new HTPC.

I'm also planning on fucking around with using PFSense since the router provided by my ISP is dildos.

Is it even a decent idea to get say old server bits and run a Dual-CPU Xeon setup, and run that one rig as my HTPC, NAS, and PFsense box?

Or would it be easier to do something like rPi and grab on old workstation off cl or evil bay for the NAS/PFsense box.

Memtest86 or Memtest86+?

Is there a way to import links into Jdownloader from a txt file?
Or is there some download manager that supports that?

I have a shitload of links in one txt, and I don't want to add every single one manually.

I use my PC for basic Internet shit and gaming. I'm not running a wired connection but my room gets barely no signal.

Will this work great? I plan to connect an Ethernet to my PC from the repeater.

encrypted facebook client
encrypted server/client chat service
countdown time using config files
something to calculate accurate implied probability

anything else to add? also is there any negative caused by having a large number of repos on github? I mean smaller things I plan on just putting in my scripts folder but if all goes well I should have like 20+ repos by the end of next year, will this reflect badly on me?

Im paranoid.

How likely is it to get malware from using used RAM?

I got 2x2GB DDR2(Elpida) from a broken laptop and i was thinking to upgrade my 2x1GB(Hynix) AIO desktop.

an old xeon would give you far more flexebility

look up what volatile ram means

Also windows will have no problems in using different RAM right?

I know i wont have to reinstall but will it show problems?

Need help, where do I look for black friday/cyber monday deals on PC parts?

depends on your motherboard, read your manufacturer's website, but 95% of the time it works fine.

probably websites that sell PC parts....

Here, Amazon, newspapers, IRC, run around like an idiot in your city.

Man I'm a shit who doesn't know any besides Amazon and NewEgg.

where on IRC?

try the sites that pcpartpicker pulls from

How do I make multi-minitor work properly in Windows 10?

I have currently set it up so that my main monitor and a Samsung TV are connected as an extended display so that I can toss my browser or MPCHC over there so that I can watch stuff.

For some reason my taskbar occasionally disappears from the main monitor. Is there something I need to do to make it not fucking crash? It happens like 3-4 times a day. A quick log off and login seems to fix it, but it's seriously pissing me off.

A few weeks until my chink streambox for the TV arrives, but this is seriously annoying the shit out of me. No idea what triggers it, but it seems to fuck up alt-tab too, which becomes REALLY zoomed in on the left side of the alt-tab menu.

If anyone has any idea what might be causing it, I'm all ears. I tried to install DisplayFusion, but that didn't fix anything and the taskbar just ends up disappearing anyway.

try displayfusion

cntrl+c
open jdownloader
download tab
add multiple links
paste
ok
ok
start links
ok

Of course I tried that, problem is, it only detects the first link.

Then your other links are invalid
Make them in to actual proper links

What is the "go to" brand for tvs?
I've heard LG is the place to go for tvs now?

> I tried to install DisplayFusion, but that didn't fix anything and the taskbar just ends up disappearing anyway.

It doesn't replace the main taskbar, only the one of the secondary monitor. That works fine, but the main one seems to break

Does TDP = the amount of power a part will actually consume?

Samsung>Sony>LG>Others

The best public torrent website for porn?

Also, what is a good way to store old RAM?

Inside a medicine box?

no

what the fuck is wrong with her fingers? she has 4 knuckles but a finger is coming out between the index and thumb

can someone recommend a powerbank that is quick charge 2.0 compatible and isn't gonna explode?

How do I convince my boss to let me have a second monitor?
It's difficult to maintain my IDE, my browser, and the database on one screen that's less than 1080p.

How to know then how much it'll consume? I checked Intel and if I got it right, TDP is energy wasted away as heat. Correct?

By telling him exactly what you just said
Monitors are cheap

>TDP is energy wasted away as heat. Correct?
yes.
>How to know then how much it'll consume?
read the specs or google a review that checks power consumption

this + it will improve your productivity.

I need a budget laptop that is ONLY for office work. I don't give a shit about thinkpads

Ironically your best option is a cheap, old thinkpad
T400 or T410

Tell him exactly that, then.
Even a 1080p one is like $90-100.
Unless it's one of those 1337 xXxmlgproxXx 144 MHz monitors.

I did. I don't think it worked.

The company is notoriously cheap.
Our workstations are running 32-bit Windows 7 with 3GB RAM.

When one of the other programmers asked for an ergonomic mouse, they said he had to provide a note from his doctor stating why it's necessary.

>office monitors
>leet gaming

Thinkpads are precisely meme-tier because they are cheap as shit laptops designed for office work.

Buy one and bring it to work?

You are asking exactly what thinkpads are for.

>Buy one and bring it to work?
I asked if I could, but it's against company policy to plug anything (mouse, keyboard, flash drive, monitor, ANYTHING) into the computers that is not company issued.
Because we handle classified material, the government is fairly strict about this.

bump

okay okay, i'll get a thinkpad.

where would be the best place to get one for a deal? eBay is too sketch for me.

Any good alternatives to rutracker.org

Pc crashed while watching something, won't enter bios, psu smelt like a toaster, ssd can't be found in another pc.

I can "fix it" but what could've happened?

psu failed (randomly) frying/killing the SSD

RIP family :^(

o shit

You'll saturate the airwaves with shit with that. Get a better wifi antenna for your PC instead.
Like, look for "wifi yagi" on ebay or something.
It also needs your wifi card to have external connecter (SMA).

Is the i6600k better than i2500k? How much better? 5%?

this, shoulda bought a non shit PSU

>4 generations newer

Primary function will be running visual studios with xamarin.

And don't come back.

4GB. wherever it's cheapest.

On average, how much longer does a PC last versus a laptop?

I'm using a MSI gaming laptop right now, but it is showing its age only 2 years in.

Does PCs I make last longer?
