What's a good Android notepad app that can create and edit .txt files (as opposed to just making notes in the app)?
Don't need anything else.

Can we install a other package manager on a distribution? Like aptitude on red hat and stuff like this. If yes why distribution is defined by the package manager. If not, why not?

I think ES File Explorer lets you do this

Vim with termux and hacker key board?

I got a chink tablet (Npole N718) and there's a weird bug in it.

When you touch, and maintain the touch, after like a second it's like you lift your finger off, like, for example, if you tap and hold an icon after a moment the icon drops itself like you lifted your finger when you didn't

Any clues? Thanks

I'd rather have a little app just for this, instead of downloading an entire explorer just for a small feature.

I only need it to paste URLs and to type small amounts of texts. Nothing fancy for coding and such.

Find this on fdroid

Whats the simplest way to set up my own URL redirect that changes everything from is.Sup Forums.org to i.4cdn.org? The 'is' links take well over a minuet to load, but come in instantly if i change the URL.

Our internet speed will drop to an unusable speed and only returns to normal when I reboot the modem. Sometimes I have to reset if 5/6/7 times to get a consistent connection which could last anywhere between 5 hours or it might last 30 mins before I have to reset the modem again. Strangely, if the speed drops, I've found that if I don't use the PC right away and connect via Wifi, the connection seems more stable. When I wake up in the morning, I can always use the internet on my ipad and phone which are connected via wifi, but when I try to use internet though my PC, I have to reset the modem to try get a stable connection.

I also get a good connection after say 9-10pm where the connection seems more stable. I thought it might be congestion, but would the wifi work well if there was congestion?

Any ideas?

Change your router.

looking for a new email signature, something relating to freedom, privacy, anti-surveillance, malware, security or hacking - you can make your own quote if you like but I'll be googling to make sure it's your quote, I send around 100-500 emails a month

Does anyone still make non-smart TV's?
~50 inch monitors are excessively expensive but I don't want some shitty locked down android skew loaded with proprietary bloat and spyware.

i can get a htc 10 for cheap like 410 euro but it feels kinda wrong to buy something released half a year ago knowing it will be replaced
should i get that or oneplus 3t?

How do I enable the 0 dB mode for the RX 480?
The driver control panel won't let me set the fan speed to less than 522 RPM.

I know 3rd party fan controls can get the job done, but I want to do this the "right" way to avoid overheating.

What is this and where do I get it?

I've been emailing with stallman on and off for months might seem a bit weird desu

Someone's ddosing you. Assuming you have dynamic IP it's someone who can get ahold of it for example forums moderators, irc, Sup Forums etc

Speccy is reading my processors temp at 76°C/168°F but that couldn't be the case because the bottom of my laptop would feel way hotter than what it is. The temp from what I feel is mild. I also applied fresh thermal paste yesterday.

just got an actual expensive phone for christmas. looking into security apps now....

are there any that prevent a "thief" from just restoring the phone and therefore removing the security app? im looking at cerberus now and it seems like thats a pretty big oversight lol

How old is your modem? If it was supplied by your ISP you should write them a letter bitching about it- they will likely send you a new one at no cost. Then you can at least rule out that piece of hardware.

You could re-phrase to be more succinct without a doubt (given his stance on open source he may even appreciate it), but I don't think he'd be so outspoken about his ideology if he didn't want people to adopt it.

good point

hello this is rajesh
i cannot install linux as microsoft is asking for us to
i must wrok hard and use my h1b well

HELP

Speccy is wrong sometimes.

if they have your phone you really cant do shit. you may slow down the retards but as soon as they get root all your security wont matter.

I'm running Chrome Canary on Win10 and suddenly it's randomly closing without warning and without any error messages. Anyone else having this issue?

ah thats kind of what i figured...

oh well guess i just have to be careful with it

Please help.

My HP 4430s keeps stuttering. How the fuck do I fix it?

fuck every one of you stupid cringe-y fucks that do this shit, tons of wasted goddamn space in quoted chains and retarded managers waste all that extra paper printing shit off with your drivel all over the place.

a new trend as well is the phones are often gutted for parts like a modern chop shop

I'm getting real fucking sick of Windows 10. I'm an Administrator, but trying to save or overwrite a file in Program Files or something like that is not allowed. If I want to edit a text file, I have to edit it, Save As to documents, and then copy and paste it over the original file where it was. I can't save an image from my browser, I have to cut and paste it from Pictures to whatever directory I wanted it to be in. How can I fix this shit?

Thinking of getting a 1070. Should I get a 1440p@60Hz monitor, or a 1080p@144Hz monitor?

First I wanna say that this guy is right. But just so you can keep it in mind, the cops told me that they'd track my stolen phone if I used an app that gave it's location. But that shit eats battery so I just gave up on it. Just be sure you upload your photos to the cloud and don't keep important documents on it. Also, beware of motorcycles.

What's the best use for 30 blacklisted Android phones?

Calm down user, the internet is full of stupid shit.
You don't need to roll around in it and tell everyone you don't like it.

I use the Mega app but it's a fucking hassle.

Is the Google Authenticator app tied to my phone independently of my google play account, or can I download it again on another device with my play info and get login codes sent to it as well?

Can you use rufus to install a Windows ISO to a USB? Or do you have to use Microsoft's dumb software?

There's gotta be something wrong with him, right?

you can but sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. what's wrong with the ms tool?

>tons of wasted goddamn space in quoted chains and retarded managers waste all that extra paper printing shit off with your drivel all over the place.
I don't use quoted chains at all I erase them and only quote relevant text when it's absolutely needed - also I'm a fucking neet so I don't have a manager and no ones printing off my emails

definitely into furry scat porn

is kinguin a legit way to get windows 10 keys? i saw that pauls hardware video but some people were expressing grief in the comments about scams and their keys being resold.

what are some cheap ways to get w10 keys besides pirating? am i better off just using the media creation tool and not using a product key for the time being?

is this real? super stupid question

teach me user

what size? at

you have to actually install it
while with rufus you can just download the exe and run it
i don't see why it needs to install something that could easily be contained in a single file.

What's the best media center software to use on a rPI?

anyone actually use the adblock plus android browser?

is there a legit adblock yet for android devices?

i browse a lot of movie stream sites that are littered with those popup ads that will open playstore tabs and i hate it

firefox allows extensions, like ublock...

if you have root, use adaway, it blocks not only all browser ads, but also ads from free ad supported apps

Use uBlock origin with Firefox for android.

I'm trying to find the hard drive in an old computer but nothing in there looks like a hard drive I'm used to seeing. I can take a pic, its an old computer that hasn't been cleaned for a while but I feel like the hard drive is probably fine.

yeah take a pic, but it's probably an scsi drive

...

I wouldnt be too sure I might just be retarded. I have no idea what hard drive cables look like I've only ever seen the hard drives themselves and everything is boxed in metal cages that need to be unscrewed.

I have a pic thats farther away too and shows everything but I was thinking it might not be clear enough.

Nigga are you for real?
Its light as day where the hd is

sorry. Is it the grey cable?

Son even I can see where the HDD is.

Oh wait. Fuck. Its the bottom right isn't it. I just read the lables and they had a SATA power cable warning label. I'm sorry.

GOD DAMMIT

george michael died today of "heart failure"

at 53, what's the odds if this being drug related rather than just having a bad heart

So I just installed a second hard drive (1 TB) and Windows is prompting me to initialize the disk before I can actually use it. The problem is that I don't know if I should use MBR or GPT. I hear that you don't need GPT for drives over 2 TB but I'm not sure if MBR is still recommended regardless these days.

I dual-boot with Ubuntu and my boot mode is Legacy (and I'm also not sure if I should change it to UEFI) if that matters.

Weirdest fucking thing just happened to me. My keyboard out of nowhere switched from QWERTY to AZERTY. Restarting Windows fixed it. I was playing a game at the time.

What do you think happened?

Can a 3/4 way SLI bridge work with just 2 graphics cards?

Yes, but SLI is a meme. Don't fall for it.

let's say i laugh at something like a retard and some spittle gets under my laptop keys. am i fucked?

Thoughts on cheapo/no name keyboards?

I wanna buy a tenkeyless/60% but don't want to spend $100+ on one. My research has shown they either go cheap or expensive, there's no in between. (Mainly looking on Amazon cause prime)

They wont come out.

No unless you have a shitty cheap Chinese one I've spilt tons of stuff on my laptop

user what the fuck with your case.

They are screwed in

for a mechanical keyboard? just unplug it and hit it with a hairdryer until it evaporates

electronics arent 'hurt' by water, but they are hurt when the water makes connections that shouldnt be made. you could throw a keyboard in a pool and then wait for it to dry and it would likely be fine.

if its a really bad spill and you dont have days to wait for it to dry, give it a bath in isopropyl alcohol. alcohol will dissolve the water and it evaporates in hours rather than days like water does. i've given my mechanical keyboard multiple baths in alcohol after spilling pop on them, and it works perfectly still.

Remove the screws in the side.

I did there was 4 screws unless theres even more. I had to take out the GPU and the CPU fan in order to get to the bottom screws.

There's probably screwd on the other side see how it is in a cage you have to remove that by unscrewing it

Holy shit, I wasn't expecting to that reposted here.

i'm done paying for cable (i only watch live sports) and land phone (i only use my cellphone).

i live in nyc - what are some internet-only service providers or alternatives to be paying only for fast internet and still be seeing live sports from time to time except streaming?

Can an r9 280x 3gb still play modern games at reasonable settings?

No.
But depends your definition of reasonable settings.

Low-Mid at Sub 60FPS? yeah.

Comcast is fast but not that cheap, I get 100mb/s for $70 a month

Got them out. There were like 15 fucking screws.

Going to try and hook them up.

My computers power supply should have the power cables right? I grabbed pic related out.

What are those, Maxtor?

Hold old are those?
