w2c 32 bit windows xp iso.
I need it for a VM.

I'll tell you if you give me that pic without the bird.

How can I losslessly convert a swf to a mp4 or other video format that Webm for retards will accept?

I want the converted video file to have no visible compression relative to the original swf.

What is going happened if I use channel 14 on the 2.4ghz range?(I'm in the Netherlands).
Is the frequency going to interference with with some military walkie-talkie or some shit?
I need to know 'cus if it's not in any use I would like to use it(I live in a crowded environment).

I lied but thanks.

if it's just a video embedded in the swf, use ffmpeg
if it's a non-video animation, then use a screen recorder
both with a lossless codec such as x264 in lossless mode

How do I keep an audio/subtitle track preference across an entire playlist in MPC-HC?
Say I have an anime with english/japanese dual audio or multiple subtitle tracks. At the beginning of every episode I have to change the displayed audio and subtitle tracks to my preferred setting. I would like some way to set my preferences once in the first episode and have everything else in the playlist automatically follow the same settings.

TPB you fucking mong

He did, they were just super thin and didn't show up well in photographs.

Not enough info

how would I do it in ffmpeg? I've tried looking at it's documentation before and it all goes over my head.

Does anyone know to get the text inside of an iframe?
I don't really know javascript.

You'd have to look up what has that reservation in the Netherlands. I wouldn't worry to much since the power output of wifi is so low that you aren't really going to cause problems. Depending on how your devices work, they may not like that channel if they know they know what country you are in. It's also probably illegal, so you gotta roll both those dice.

ffmpeg -i input.swf -c copy -c:v libx264 -crf 0 -preset veryfast output.mp4
afaik swf's only ever used mp3's, but then i haven't touched flash in many years, this just copies the audio as-is

And that will also copy the video just as is? Where is it exporting the resultoing mp4 file to?

(worth noting you could just convert it directly to webm with ffmpeg)

it will convert the video to lossless h264, output is to "output.mp4", you can prefix this with a path if you need it somewhere else

Alright, thanks user

How do I print to PDF on Firefox?

Can I just change the default shell(using chsh) from bash to fish in Arch?
I have heard that it can't load everything properly while booting or some shit...

No virus pls. Does windows not hand out isos for old os like they do with w10?

you can, the shell is only for your specific user, so it can't affect boot
and scripts which use bash will still use bash, as it's specified in the first line of the script

I'm hitting my home Wi-Fi on NetworkManager and it shows as having connected, but there's no Internet connectivity in browser. Ping fails in terminal. I've tried
>setting IPv6 to ignore
>enter Google's public DNS
>re-entering credentials

All nothing.

where can I get a legit non-eval iso of Win 10 LTSB?

i could upload my copy if you have enough patience for my 100KB/s upload

I connected an external monitor to my laptop and I have an issue

Laptop's resolution is 1920x1080
Monitor's native resolution is 1600x900

I set the resolution in my laptop to 1600x900 but even when I set the display to external monitor only, the image is sort of stretched. What do I have to do to have the image showing only on the external monitor, unfucked, and laptop display just turned off?

You sure you're not underestimating how shitty 900p is? Try posting a screenshot.

Im trying to make a c++ program that reads in from a file called prices.txt. prices.txt itself is 15 numbers long, but my output seems to be missing a number. Anyone know where im fucking up?

Maybe stretched is a wrong word. Parts of the screen don't even show up, like the task bar, and my cursor can drift off to left and right side. Taking a screenshot would just show you the normal screen I think

how scary is openbsd?

try int list[16];

You already read a line from input once with the while statement.

Why do you have both the while loop and the for loop? The for loop handles the reading fine on its own. Remove the while loop.

sounds like overscan, check your TV manual on how to disable it

Is it possible to view Windows Defender's update history on 8.1?

Go into the graphics options and try to adjust the screen size.

Damn didnt notice that lol. Thanks for the help man!

So my Windows 10 installation wasn't booting, instead getting stuck at a blank screen with a _.
I attempted to rebuild the bootloader with bootrec /fixmbr, /fixboot, /rebuildbcd, et cetera, and now it's giving me a DISK BOOT FAILURE message.
There's definitely a Windows installation on there, I can detect it with bootrec /scanos. But I'm not sure what to do to fix the bootloader/ disk boot failure.

My mother's computer has Bluetooth, so does my mac. I was able to pair my mom's phone to her PC and use WMP as a Bluetooth speaker (with the mic). Do macs do this by chance?

Also I'm on a Mac mini Serria 2010

Even if I haven't rooted my phone, could I still access the root folders of my sd card as if the internal storage was rooted?

aside from using a virtual hard drive file, is there any way to make windows treat removable storage as an internal drive? specifically a microsd in a windows 10 tablet.

Shit man thanks, it worked.

Also, why does the internet feel so huge when you run it on 1600x900 on a monitor with a bigger native resolution? Everything else feels fine, is there anything I can change in Firefox settings?

How do I install a liquid cooler? Do I do it with the motherboard/cpu out of the case or is it easier to do it with everything installed?

Nevermind, I fixed it.

I've just installed my first SSD. What should I do now? I have no HDD. It's in my notebook. Any softwares I should Install? Any configurations I should make?

Related to the SSD.
Your SDD management software.

Related to Windows, adobe reader IX, ms office 2013 and activate it with mstoolkit, malwarebytes, ccleaner, Speccy and Hwmonitor, Xnview, Notepad++, CCCP.

Install your OS on it, make it your primary drive. Your computer should boot up faster in comparison to the average HDD when using your OS on an SSD.

Configure FF/Chrome so they write less to the SSD, should be easy to find articles about it.

>post the password
>CIA notices
>CIA changes it

not really, no. Most of the folders you don't even have read access too, for example the xml file that holds your wifi passwords isn't accessible without root, but it depends on what you're looking for

Why is the 128gb iPad mini only $30 cheaper than the 128gb iPad.?

iPad mini has an older soc as well

Thanks for the response man! Ill look up vectors tomorrow when I have some time. Havent quite gotten around to reading about them yet

I've got a hand full of HDD related questions, I'll just list them out for the sake of convenience.

1.) I'm considering getting pic related as a replacement to my 2012 OEM 1TB Seagate HDD that's about 90% full of Steam games 'n shit. Does anyone have any particular thoughts/opinions on this brand or drive itself? I already have my OS and most of my personal files stored on a 120GB SSD, and I plan on using the HDD for basic shit like games and video editing. If this doesn't seem like a good investment of $130, what would be a better alternative?

2.) When getting a new drive, how exactly do I transfer all 900+GB of shit I've got on my current 1TB drive onto another? I've heard of creating a disk image to basically "clone" the drive onto another, but I'm not sure about what software I should use to do that.

I'm planning on making the decision to buy this in time for weekend shipping, the sooner the advice the better. Thanks in advance.

>apple
Why do people pay 1k USD for out-dated hardware

Consider pic related

>toshiba
Toshiba and Kingston you should avoid. They're both toshiba owned and have idiotic history of using shitty components bought from other companies for their equipment.

It's $429 retard.

Also mother's Day and mom's birthday in the same week.

I bought my Mother a brand new iPad too user.
I don't know the answer to you question.

Wow, thanks for the speedy response. I have to leave for a bit, but I'll be back with a few more questions. Although for $20 more, HGST isn't sounding like a bad alternative for a 4TB drive.

It doesnt matter anymore with 3D TLC SSDs.

Can you ping your router? can you ping 8.8.8.8?

>tried to block myself from porn sites both on phone and pc by editing the hosts file
>discover it does not block subdomains for example imsickofthis.com will get blocked but youcantescapeit.imsickofthis.com won't get blocked.
Any workaround for this? How can I effectively block myself from these places?

Can you please give me a link with the Chrome configuration?

this isn't the answer you're looking for but...self control. porn scrambles your mind, stay away from it for your own sake. it skews your ideas of what a healthy sex life and relationship should be like, and gives a false perspective into a very intimate detail of a person's life.

What happens when everyone watches it though, like modern first world countries

My thumbdrive still isnt showing up in file explorer. Disk manager shows it as primary partician but anything i do gives me an error. if i click format it says unexpected error has occured. if i try to change the drive letter or path i get "The operation failed to complete because the Disk Management console view is not up-to-date. Refresh the view by using the refresh task. If the problem persists close the Disk Management console, then restart Disk Management or restart the computer"
Each time i plug it in i get a pop us saying drivers installing but if i check under device manager it says its working properly and drivers are up to date

No / no.

they're not posting the password to some file or website under the cia's control

what likely happened:
1. wikileaks gets their hands on some cia shit
2. wikileaks encrypts that cia shit and hands out the encrypted file to anyone who wants it
3. at a later date, wikileaks releases the password to decrypt the file. now anyone who has the file from step 2 can decrypt it and see the secret info from step 1

Sounds like its FUBAR.

did you get proper IP address?
did you get proper gateway/routes?
ip a
ip route list

damn man, its brand new. that sucks

Ask for a refund?

Let me guess, Kingston, PNY?

nah, centon. I figured thumbdrives have been a thing since like 2002, thought they would be mostly plug and play by now. how complex is data storage

Dude im trying, 4 out of 5 times it works but that one time it doesn't it makes me lose hours, sometimes entire days.

Any other way to efficiently block them? I'd rather not install any software but if I have I'd preffer open source. OS is W7 and Android KitKat.

Did you just try it? Was it fat32? did you use it for a wii u hdd backups or rpi or something that self formats?
Try reformatting it in a linux life boot, with a different usb obv

?

Is there any way to manually TRIM an Android phone that isn't rooted?

Here's where being clueless comes in. What do you plug an amp into? What are you using to play music through your amp to your headphones? My phone is my source of music. Willing to use different source though. Sorry if it's hard to understand what I'm confused about.

This is copied and pasted. Help pls.

I havent used it for anything yet, just plugged it into my pc and started trying to find why it wasnt showing up in file explorer. im not sure, i think it is, under properties the partition style says MBR

i'd like to learn how to remove background noise or music from files to isolate voices. mainly female voices i want intact. ive seen a few audacity vocal isolation tutorials and all are pretty shit. does anyone have a link to a good tutorial or have a simple recommendation for this task?

I'm using NanoStation 5 to connect to my ISP via broadband.
I'm getting a signal 0f -45 to -55 dBm.
Are these goods?
Or do I need to change to NanoBridge, just like my ISP is telling me to?

>What do you plug an amp into?
The same where you plug your headphones in. The only thing that'd plug in a different place is a DAC (some come with amps included).

Yeah, nah, it would never work that way.
I have no idea why your network manager does not get any ip from dhcp, but try to edit your wifi connection, set your IPv4 to Manual and enter address netmask gateway and dns.
That should alow you to connect.
Or maybe you do actually have it set to manual right now? change it to Automatic(DHCP) then?

how can I just remove it all together

I want to write malware purely for research purposes, not to do any kind of harm. For example, do a proof of concept that tries to infect most of the internet's costumer routers, then after a month just deactivates itself.

Is there any way to do this legally in europe? Otherwise I'll just give up.

No I'm pretty sure it's like carrying burglary tools and you can see jail time.

Okay /sqt/, Help me out here. I have an Acer Aspire 5742Z. One day I got really mad about something and started hitting the right side area of the laptop's touchpad Which is directly above where the HDD is located of this laptops model. After that my laptop doesn't bootup, It goes to the Acer startup screen and then tries to reboot again. It does this until the battery is dead or is manually removed. Even holding the power button for 10 seconds doesn't make it stop. I can't even go into BIOS it just keep rebooting. So my questions, Did I fuck up the HDD? I've never had a crashed HDD before so I don't know the symptoms, Or Did I fuck up something major?

DHCP right now. What should my netmask / gateway be?

>was

set netmask to 255.255.255.0 and gateway to your router`s ip address (i assume its 192.168.1.254 since you tried to ping that one berfore)

>The same where you plug your headphones in.
I thought you plug headphones in the amp
