What's the easiest way to take a webm file on my computer, and get it to embed and play in a discord chat without uploading to YouTube. I've tried numerous webm sharing sites like webmshare.com, but they always just embed it with an external link, and not a play button.

they only support embedding from popular sites like youtube, it will not embedded a direct link to a webm.

I'm making a simple web crawler in Python.
I'm trying to print the subject in full as when I'm using find_all. When I use "find", only part of the subject is used. Using find_all, both the cut off subject and full typed subject are printed, when I only want the later.

I am playing with windows server 2012
virtualbox networking is damn unreliable
but anyway

can someone explain basic idea of where the files on desktop are stored by default when you are in a domain?

are they still on the PC that logs in? or are they on the server?

at first I thought its on server, then it seemed rather stupid to have huge amount of files, but then talk about loging in to an account from any computer came...
like wtf, if I put 100GB of movies on domain account desktop, does it needs to be copied to the domain controller?

So what is happening when faggot has 20gb pst outlook files, do they get copied on every login? or just synced?

it depends how the AD is set up. I've worked at a company where it was server side, so logging in to a new computer took a few minutes until all files were ready.
at the current company the files are only locally besides a few on specific shared directory.

what's the best source to read about pointers in c?

So a faggot user cant just go to another PC and log in there and work... or he can, just files would not be available?

I mean in your current company, I understand that if set to allow it, he can...

Yes. I log in on others computers all the time to install stuff they don't have the rights to.
Windows will go through the initial "new user" setup (as in, windows 10 starts installing all the shitty apps from the store which takes forever), but none of my settings are the same as on my actual machine.

>can someone explain basic idea of where the files on desktop are stored by default when you are in a domain?
If you're talking about a client computer logging onto the domain then their files will be stored on the client machine, unless home folders or folder redirection was setup then those files aren't going anywhere.

shouldn't it be
find_all('span', class_="subject")
(based on the documentation)

I have a device that plugs into an AC adapter

I have an inspec adapter but it's from a country where input is 100V and I need it to work on 120V

It's a small electronic needing 12V 400mA

Is it safe to use the 100V adapter into a 120V socket for this instance? I don't care too much if the ac adapter life is shortened

I also have a 14V 400mA adapter rated for input of 120V with matching polarity

What is the best option to use out of these?

i have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note Edge with 6.0.1 on it. whats the easiest way to unlock the bootloader, all the guides online ive found are at best, in broken english, if not outdated and ineffective

I'm looking for a mouse with a free scroll wheel, like some of the Logitech ones, but the catch is that it has to be ambidextrous. Is there any hope?

Doesn't work. Still lists both subjects, one cut off and one full.

Came back to an error saying that my laptop was taking up too much power from the USB hub and needed to be disabled. Now regardless of where I plug it in I get 0 response from it. The fuck? Never happened for the first two years I owned it.

What does it mean when I configure a router with a domain name and how does it relate to the DNS?

What I know is that the DNS translates domain names that are in natural language to binary ip addresses, but the router has different IPs on the different configured interfaces, so does each of those IP addresses on each interface are paired with the natural language domain name that is assigned to the whole router?

Keyboard taking up too much power. I'm retarded and hungover on top of that.

there are two spans with class "subject" in the DOM, one is for the tooltip with truncated text.

I bought this HDD 3 months ago, what's up with all these errors? should I be worried?

what errors?

I don't know, that "Read Error Rate" for instance the current value is the worst does that mean nothing? all the other errors as well the current is always the worst

Recently moved into a small apartment with the person im seeing. Both of our pcs are in the same room, and its a somewhat small room that already had issues with getting hot before my pc was moved in. The overhead fan is always on, and we even have a small Blizzard fan thats pretty powerful, but even with those the room still gets hot. Theres not really enough room for another fan either. Any ideas?

open the windows

its fine, there are no errors
I assume speccy would tell you when values starts to go bad, though not sure as I use hdtune

What's the best option for getting as close as possible to a linux-esque cli environment in windows? I miss package managers. Should I just give up on emulating the functionality and try to make the best of powershell and all that shit?

install the linux subsystem, it runs ubuntu in the background and almost everything works as if it was native linux.

otherwise there's github.com/OneGet/oneget

How would I access the extended version?
I'm also noticing that it repeats the same news threads more than once.

the extended version already is in the dom, it's the second object in your array returned from find_all

Why does my 'C++ hello, world' show a fuckton of errors when I use -std=c++11?
What's the difference between -std=c++11 and -std=gnu++11?
[mingw, windows]

I'm still on 7, so afaik the subsystem isn't an option for me.

Is WD Gold worth it or should I gun for a WD Black?

I installed that, why won't it show anything in the health tab?

powershell is fucking amazing
if you are trapped in windows then go for powershell knowledge
everything is object and it makes bash with all the grep/awk/sed feel like ancient history

reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/624a0j/powershell_seriously/

show errors faggot

I knew that, but it also prints the truncated version. I was asking if there's a way to just print the extended and have the program leave out the truncated.

select correct disk in the drop down menu
if still nothing, go to bios and enable SMART for hdds

you do that by not looping over every match and only printing the second

sounds good to me, user.

2400 MHz CL16 (with XMP) or 2133 MHz CL15 (no XMP) RAM?

And won't 1.2V RAM be a problem if CPU specs say 1.35V?

Am I currently banned from the 4chins.

you can check that on Sup Forums.org/banned instead of posting something.

Any help? This is fucking annoying

nigger get at least 2666, at least! Ideally 3200 and above
and less voltage is fine

It auto selected my HDD and I'm pretty sure SMART is enabled sicne it showed up on speccy. Maybe because I'm on w10?

Is there a good tutorial out there to learn how to do diagrammatic modeling in LaTeX?

Or should I just give up and use yed and import the diagram I make to LaTeX?

Is it worth it to also/instead learn how to make graphs and shit in LaTeX?

>you do that by not looping over every match

Remove the while loop?

Taking the comptia network+ exam in three days counting today. I feel confident with the vernacular but the simulation questions scare me and I haven't been able to find any good ones online. I've been doing 90% multiple choice and then occasional lab questions if I can find them or they come up. Simulation and hands on work is imperative because I'm no network person besides basic crap like forwarding ports and setting up routers/modems.

Tips and/or links?

You could try cygwin.

Also, for a windows package manager, there's chocolatey.

Debian stopped working properly after getting some packages for steam.
The screen turned black with a blinking white line at the right-top corner.
I did a reboot and now the UI of debian won't display.
I opened the terminal with ctrl+alt+f1 and there it worked but just for the terminal.
When I try to go back at the normal interface (ctrl+alt+f7) it doesn't change from the tty1.
I checked the memory and the files and it was all the same.
My distro version is 3.16.0-4amd64.
So the question is: How do I fix this?

How is this for a laptop?

I need the storage, so there's no point in recommending an SSD instead.

does anybody have a recommendation for a good lossless image compressor? I tried using winrar but it doesn't even compress all of my images when I use it on a folder, only some of them. I haven't used the other 2 from the wiki

western digital is the usual brand recommended here
just make sure you get the right size, 2.5, 1.8, etc

That's an SSHD, actually.
I haven't seen one from WD.

why would you want one of those?
just get an hdd, upgrade when you have some money

Because it's almost the same price as a normal HDD.
And I'll probably need to win the lottery before I can afford a 2TB SSD.

who needs a 2tb ssd
need like 120gb for your OS and your browser

bump

Like I said in the first post.

It's a laptop (single slot).
And I need the storage space.

Will using a paid VPN give me the same pile of shitty issues that Tor does? That is, pages randomly refusing to load, most sites forcing you into the "one more step" page, and other sites just blocking you completely, because fuck you for actually wanting privacy. If so, I'm not even going to bother.

if you dont use dvdrom you can buy caddy for like $10 and have ssd / hdd

and stop hoarding porn, movies, series or god forbid some chinese cartoons you loser

Sure you don't have a M.2 slot hidden away in there?
I've heard that those hybrid HDDs are all shit.

What is clang/llvm exactly? Like I know it's a compiler but why does it have two names? What does the low level virtual machine do? How is it different to GCC?

Can someone give me a quick rundown on it?

what laptop is that

>and stop hoarding porn, movies, series
No

I wish. It's a budget laptop.

im not a super model or anything but...
>mirror - look fine
>computer webcam - look fine
>phone camera - looks like a mong
why is this?

reposting: my phone broke down, what is the best under 100€ (europoors) smartphone?

It has to do with the different focal lengths of the cameras.

Using ubuntu: I have quite the poor performance on chromium with the flashplayer-plugin installed. Watching youtube videos and the like is terrible - lag and consistently dropping frames. Anybody else experience this? What did you do?

I installed chromium-pepper-flash on Arch. Try to find an equivalent for ubuntu.

recently I saw a listing on ebay for an I5 6500 going for $95, there's no mention of any damage and listed as new. is there something I'm missing or bs going on, or should I go for it?

thanks bro

Samsung chromebook plus is on sale and even cheaper now. I'm really tempted, but don't know if it will suit my weeb needs. Will it run all anime codecs? What about visual novels and flash/unity games? Should I just wait for the pro instead?

Does ARM have backdoors and other shit?

Sorry for the lack of actual photo

I have a flat side panel case, corsair 300r. The psu cabling for my hard drives don't seem to fit with the case and push out the side panel like so.

what can i do to fix this? i cant really move the hard drive psu cables much since its a triple connector

try cable ties or just ignore it

Why i can't mount an iso of a dowloaded movie? It's about 6 GB. Deamon tool said "mounting the image" but nothing happened. It usually work fine with other iso files

i can't really tie it because its something like this
but with that thick cable mesh stuff on them that's pushing it out

ignoring it wont cause problems down the line will it?

rotate the hdds to be connector front, not to the back. maybe not as pretty, but easier to actually add/remove hdds

never even gave it a though, thanks m8 ill give it a try

Why are you downloading 6GB movie iso images?

There is no difference between HDMI cables right?
Cheapest one will look the same than a "good quality" one?

Idk, i wanted a movie... Is a 6GB iso something uncommon in this contenxt?

Is it possible to extract closed captioning files from a DVD VOB file and what would be the best way to do so?

If it's an ISO of a DVD, go into the VIDEO_TS folder and open VIDEO_TS.IFO.

Is there anything like waifu2x that works with .psd files? I want to keep my layer information.

scale image in photoshop?

lol it's literally the same shit

Why does it start from C: and not A:

a and b were used long ago

A:/ used to be the floppy drive but I want to know this too. Why does it skip B:/ ?

I was going to buy a PS4 but the fact online gaming costs money turned me off.

How do I build a small computer that I can use in the living room with a controller? I already have a ton of games on steam

No, the iso is the uncommon part.
6GB means it's probably a DVDR. There are much better ways to get movies.

There's a general for building computers.
I don't know what its called. Look for it.

system with dual floppy drives were a thing

In addition to what you said: DVD/BD movie images are for release groups who want the source material for encoding purposes.

OK

I've swapped external hard drives for my android box and ever since the playback on Kodi has been pretty crap. I'll be watching a show then it'll just stop and I'll have to back out and resume where it stopped. Is that a common problem with USB 2.0 drives or is my particular drive just dying since I've had it for almost 6 years?

What are the better ways to ge movies?

Ok, but where do i find that folder? I can't mount the iso
