What are the essential addons for Firefox on Android?

What's the difference between this processor and a regular i7 4960X? Pls answer

Which IPS screen is whitest

How far out is screen 3 to the whitest screen? I really don't want to RMA again, my last one had dead pixels

I'm in my first semester as a junior in CS. I'm worried I might not get an internship. What am I supposed to do so I can actually graduate with a comfy job in 2 years?

be at an ivy league, be a normalfag, make a linkedin, blog and a github with a tonne of project work

t. stuff I didnt do

>comfy job
Hahaha

Can I still get Windows 10 for free? If so, how?

Vape Hardware Question:

I just removed the Windows 7 and CPU stickers off my Thinkpad and they left adhesive residue behind. What's a good solution to removing it?

>intel confidential
That's an engineering sample, how on earth would anyone know?

Install Vista and those stickers will grow through the sticky patch

A dedicated sticker glue solution.
Try various oils. I've had luck with general light machine oil in a can.
Get a soft plastic scraper and put some elbow grease into it.

Avoid silicon-based ones, depending on the composition of the case they could dissolve it.

When watching porn on certain sites in private browser whenever i interact with the site, click a video or do pretty much anything a new tab will open with a JavaScript address and will then become some spam/ad page until I close it. I'm already running disconnect and ublock origin and have no idea how to stop this happening. It happens on certain sites not all of them. Virus scan from nod32 and malware bytes are clean

None of them are white, they are all yellow equally

I have installed pi=hole on my Pi 2 and it barely blocks ads. I am unable to tweak my router to have my pi as a DNS server so I had to edit all my devices to recognise Pi as a DNS server manually. Anyway, I keep blacklisting ad domains, updating the database multiple times but it is not as effective as Ublock Origin. Is this normal?

What does DDC/CI on monitor do ? It's ON/OFF and I've no idea which to use, tried to google it but I'm not smart enough to understand if it's a good thing to use or not

My TN monitor is trash so I can't tell

1 and 3 are similar. 2 is whitest

How can I remove the yellow icon and lock symbol?

I did a factory reset on Windows 10 Pro and after the process when I first logged in I saw this. Related terms to this problem are "TPM key" and "Bitlocker" I did some research myself before but nothing worked.

One of my pic related hard drives is in too shitty of a condition for booting into windows because it got really slow for the usage of windows (the Hitachi one obviously) which is why I switched to another HDD

However, it's been a year since it has been "failing" which makes me think that I could still find usage for it

Would formatting it and transferring movies/shows/music to it be a good idea?

1 is pure white
2 is toenail fungus yellow
3 is white but not as pure as 1

are you trolling? 1 is whitest, 2 is most yellow

>formatting a dying drive
That could finally kill it, but throwing out a still working drive is stupid, just download movies that you plan on watching in the next 7days on it

You will be risking a nuke at any given time if you continue to use it

Turn off f.lux you doofus

I dont use that peice of placebo shit

Also another related question, there's AMA option on my monitor too, which is Advanced Motion Acceleration, which in theory sounds like an option that should be turned on, but as with everything that is proprietary(this is BenQ exclusive as I understand), they can leave out some important information that it might be shit/placebo whatever, anyone have any idea on that setting ?

1 is closer to blue than 2 and 3. So 1 is whiter.

That's what they look like when you increase the saturation

What difference does it make? You need to calibrate them with a hardware tool anyway.

icky
the uniformity looks worse on 3 here but maybe thats just me.

which one do you recommend

LOL

Thank you!

>Thank you!
But remember, if you don't want to damage the surface you HAVE to use a scraper that's softer than what the surface you're scraping is made of.

A plastic credit card should do the work.
Be gentle.
Apply the solvent, don't spill it. Use a towel or rag.
Let it soak in for a minute.
It will not dissolve it, but it will soften it enough to let you scrape it off.

Is C++ a good language to learn as a starter and to move on to other things? I was recently gifted a Udemy course that teaches C++ by making games with unreal and the reviews seem like the course is worth it. Is this a waste of time or should I give it a shot?

What's a really simple basic keylogger? nothing too complicated, something that can be turned on, then record all keystrokes and make a file of it. I want to use it locally, don't need it to send files over internet. Really appreciate some info. Most keyloggers i see online are a bit too much... they have access to everything, camera. Don't need that. Just something simple.

just drench a toilet paper in isopropyl and get that shit off

Doing co-op at the moment. I can either stay at my current software dev job for 8 months or work there for 4 and at another place for 4.

What would look better on a resume?

Having a small problem with palemoon
when i watch youtube videos, the time shown on the bar only goes up to as far as I have watched. If I've watched up to 0:10, for example, it only shows the first 10 seconds. I'm sure there's a simple fix for this, but I'm at a loss of what to google.
Running i3-gaps with manjaro, if it makes any difference.

Give it back Tyrone

Question about auto-pivot
It's turned on on the monitor, but turning the screen does no effect, any ideas?

Why does KDE Neon take 5 times longer to load to the lock screen than Windows 7?

What are the best tablets to look for now? I'm looking for a sharp display because I read a lot of PDFs for tabletop games.

surface 4 pro

wut. I don't understand the question. Please rephrase in in autismspeak.

i want to watch some anime dvd that i bought
i tried to play them but the resolution is shit

Are all article images on this site broken for everyone or just me?

Can't see them on either Firefox or Chromium.

Anyone here have an upstore premium account? All the premium link generators I've tried don't seem to support upstore.net

I need to create a facebook account to partipate in local tournaments for this game I like.

What's a good barebones browser that,s privacy orientated to use so I can isolate my facebook usage to one browser to minimize tracking and shit? I already use firefox with ublock origin, noscript, and self destructing cookies for my general browsing, but don't want to even mix using facebook into that. Is there a browser with the same level of privacy as firefox with those installed?

>Facebook have changed their API (it is now v2 only, v1 is not supported any more) so that you can no longer get a list of friends through the API. The only thing you can do is get a list of users that use your app. To test this is working ensure that BOTH users have added the app.
(From stackoverflow.com/questions/31790635/python-how-do-i-get-a-facebook-users-friend-list-status-updates-etc-using-dj)

So.... Is there any easy way for me to get a list of all my friends on FB?

see pic, actual video is around 2:30, but its showing that the video is only 0:32. The second after I took the screenshot, another second passed, and it changed to 0:33.

Whenever I close an image on Sup Forums the screen always scrolls up so that the post the image was in is in the middle of the screen. This is very annoying. How do I stop it?

Using chrome.

Before I swap gpu for new one I should probably uninstall drivers first?

Gib me some Sup Forums related infographics pls

Can anyone shed some light? There isn't any specific reason for the ban given. I assume it's my phone carriers range. But fucking why? No one even uses sprint.

I have an SSD so I put certain big files on my other HD to save space. Problem is that HD has some fucked up stuff I can't let my family see were they to ever explore it for whatever reason. How can I go about putting some sort of security measure on it? Like a password or anything to lock it. Would really appreciate suggestions.

What is a Sup Forums approved disc cloning program?

What should the first programming language I learn be?

how the FUCK do I make this work?

the ISP router only has 2 ethernet ports, I basically want to use a second router as a fucking switch, but instead of working it takes down the entire network

What's the best on-demand virus scanner?

For a resumé you would be better off with as many short term projects as possible. The quicker they end the better. That way they know you can get shit done and move onto the next project that needs your attention. If you can't get shit done, no one will want you working for them.

How the fuck do you expect use to know?
Fucking contact the site and find out why.

the second router is a DIR-610N N 150, in case someone's wondering

Why not just buy a switch and use that at the ISPs router?

veracrypt

because I don't have any money, I have to use whatever I have

Thanks. Will VeraCrypt keep everything locked even if I add/remove files from the HD?

Mods post here, fuccboi. And it takes months to get replies from email. You know what those replies are? "Hurr buy a pass you won't have ta werry nuh more hurr."

I have not seen a mod post in well over 8 years being on this cesspool.

Then you have your fucking reason,dont like it? Fuck off to another isp or fuck off and pay.Its qutie obvious why it was banned

Why VeraCrypt and not BitLocker?

I'm also not allowed to fuck around with the connection from the other computer to the ISP router, and I don't have enough cabling to connect the server directly near there

>bitlocker
kek

Try this.

smallnetbuilder.com/basics/lanwan-basics/30740-how-to-use-a-router-to-add-network-ports

>bitlocker is not enough to protect some shitty pictures from tech iliterates

You're both retarded. Your area gets banned because most likely too many people in your area are posting cp behind VPN or getting banned for stupid shit or whatever. So instead of banning each individual person, they just block that area from posting. Just turn your data on and off and give it time and it might get fixed. I've turned on my data before and tried to post only to find "you're perma-banned for posting cp" and I just turn my data off and on and It's fixed. Your phone picks up different IP's when using data.

thanks f.a.m

Unfortunately I can't try this right now, will try when father's not home

So, you have no answers, you're a newfag, and a literal faggot with nothing better to do than get mad at someone for asking questions in a thread designed for questions? Mayhaps you have some issues that need dealing with?

CP retard kek
being this fucking new
its an ip range ban,which it fucking tells you
its cp
you
dumb
fucking
newfag

Yeah, I don't need maximum security. I'm just being cautious. My family doesn't give a shit enough to bother. I've had my HD like this for years and I haven't been found out (I think?). I just want a password on it and to be able to use while I'm on the computer. If Vera encrypts faster than bitlocker, I'll use it.

You're calling me retarded, even though you literally can't read English?

>Arguing on Sup Forums
I read your post quite clearly. You'er retarded. So is the other guy. Goodbye.

I am looking for proof of posts. Something other than "buy a pass, goy." Not just assumptions.

says the retard wondering why an ip range is banned on the chan

Anyone got any internal SATA SSD recommendations?

Just bought a new laptop which I plan to immediately shove an SSD in, but they seem to have gone up in price since I bought one about a year ago, so curious if anyone has an preferences. I have had no problems with the sandisk ones I have used in the pat, but they seem to have increased a decent bit, so curious if any are considered better value/performance than others.

Actually my post was the one giving the answer. Looks like you're not only retarded, but actually clinically retarded.

My post gave a clear answer. Fucking read it and just stop replying

So you read, and ignored the part where I reset my IP multiple times and it's still banned, then completely ignored it and proceeded to tell me to do exactly what I've already done? Yes, you are definitely an authority on being retarded.

Nope, I don't see that anywhere in your original post, stupid.

>Can anyone shed some light? There isn't any specific reason for the ban given. I assume it's my phone carriers range. But fucking why? No one even uses sprint.

If that didn't work then there's nothing to tell you other than buy a pass. So, buy a pass. You live in a shit area and no one wants you posting here as a result. So buy a pass if you insist on it.

samsung 850 pro is what LI recommends for laptops.

>got desperate and wrote on my resume I have experience with java, C, and python
>only wrote some hello world tier """programs""" a few years ago
>actually managed to get a job interview
>job is for an electrician with some PLC related programming

How fucked am I? Should I even show up? I am a fraud and feel great shame, my programming """skills""" are an embarrassment.

JavaScript or Python
I think that's related to how Sup Forums-- the JS that controls it puts you there. Probably no way to disable it unless you write a userscript.

>How fucked am I?
>job is for an electrician with some PLC related programming
Employer will rape you.
Hardcore.
Without lube.

program needs to pick 5 random cards, where the fuck is it getting 52 from and why are they not random

>Java
Found your problem

Doing a new build soon. Can I just get a new drive for my windows install and install my other old drives with files on it? Going from Haswell to Kaby.

>Creating 7 card objects manually
Jesus fucking christ

yes, but windows is dumb tier, so first disconnect all drives but the new one, install windows, then connect the rest

then you're going to have to fuck around in the bios a little for them to appear on windows, but I don't exactly remember what was

Bumping

body {
background-color: #008080;
}

Doesn't seem to want to set the webpage's background colour to #008080.

Anyone know what's up with that? Everything else is working just fine.

bump, figured out that does this with all videos, such as webms
