Why the FUCK does it do this? It never used to be a thing until about 6 months ago, it's so fucking annoying. It even does it if you post in one thread, open a new tab and post in a different thread.

How the fuck do you get to extensions in chromium 59?
Settings takes you to this gay settings page now and nothing has extensions on it

>uBlock Protector List
Where is this?

Is the continued one just as good? I like using Firefox.

I'd say yes, as long as you use HTTPS (which all banking sites should probably do by default).
I'm not a professional though.

I need to host a simple website, what's a good and cheap solution for that ?
The website is only html/css, not even using js or php or whatever. Everything (including pictures and sounds) are ~5MB. It won't be visited often, I just need it for a year.

I was thinking about going OVH and having a .com adress (free the first year) and having the web hosting for 20€, but is there a better solution ?

do i wanna be getting a laptop with win 7 or 10 (or 8?)?

I don't browse Sup Forums so I'll ask here: what smartphones are good that are out right now? Newest versions please.

Guys, how do I use github?

What's the standard practice here? Should I merge everything together? Will it keep things separate enough (e.g. I don't want my work commit activity to be publicly visible, nor do I want my personal commits to be in any way associated with my work to prevent them claiming that they own it or whatever), or should I stick to maintaining separate accounts?

Not sure if it corresponds to PC Build thread, so i post here.

Is this good? Programming\Casual gaming, also poorfag, so not more than 150$.

Although this one looks so sexy, especially with some tiling window manager like i3.
What do i get?

...

>win 7
hard to find, probably more expensive than a win10 machine, support will end in 2 or 3 years (unless you're a "I don't care about updating my system fag" you might care about it)
>win 8
I don't see good reason for this trash OS, unless you like the UI
>win10
adware / spyware OS.

>pic related
buy a linux laptop, you can find them easily now

Does using a Kaby Lake CPU on Windows 7 gimp the performance? Because it seems like my 7600K performs worse on games than my friends' Ivy Bridge and Haswell CPUs, also on Win7.

If your friends are on windows 10 that might explain it

>also on Win7

No, performance should be unaffected.

>Easily
>110 options
yeah good luck with that.

I already have the website made. Beside I don't want to use this trash since it would be terrible for what I need.

Why is it most websites are still wasting ~40% of the space?
Widescreens has been the norm for a long time and it is easy to get the proportions of a browser window, so why aren't they better at getting the information on the screen?

I fell for the haskell meme, how the fuck do I convert Fractional to Floating

Github pages

Because wide websites look cluttered.

I do not know any programming languages or concepts (except bash scripting, SQL and basic web dev I fthat counts). I want to learn Python because my employer relies on software written in it. However, every time I try to learn I get bored very quickly. It seems like so much time is spent obsessing over basic shit like arithmetic, printing strings, variables, etc that I lose hope I'll ever learn something useful and worthwhile. How do I get through this? Is there some "no bullshit" Python tutorial for people who already know how to make the computer say "Hello World"?

So nobody ever figured out how to make a decent design and then everybody just gave up?
I thought the people who took those art degrees were at least able to design a document or something.
Is nobody working on that or are they all just incompetent?

Files that I've deleted from the recycle bin keep reappearing in their original locations if I reboot my laptop.

How can I stop this?

Wrong.

my modem just dropped its upstream and knocked me off the internet. This happens every hour or so and lasts 5-10 minutes. The thing I don't understand is that I can connect devices to my ftp server over the LAN and it will show the index, but actually trying to download a file during this won't work.
How do I even go about troubleshooting this? router logs aren't showing anything and modem logs are filled with "no ranging response". But the modem having problems shouldn't be effecting the LAN, right?

if just all websites looked and worked like that.

I've seen pagerank being computed both as a left and a right eigen vector.
What's the difference? I assume they are actually equal but i can't understand why i haven't find anything stating it in all the papers i had to read about pagerank and perron-frobenius theorem.

Thanks bro

Depends on your style of programming. I have a friend who studies law, he absolutely loves his ultrawide for the convenience of having a browser with several tabs of cases, another with like law references, and a text editor, all open at the same time. Whenever I have to type up a document, I also feel constrained by my pleb 16:9.

When at work I usually use three monitors because I can, but I don't think I'd care for an ultrawide. Splitting between three monitors allows me to have e.g. one workspace with database connections open, one with chat and email open, one with my text editor open, and switching between contexts is seamless, but on no one workspace would I really need more space than a 16:9.

For gaming it's obviously nice but if you were buying a gamin monitor you'd want a better resolution or refresh rate before even considering ultrawide.

That's shit.

>only using 400px in the center

How about this then
thebestmotherfucking.website/

Learn how to run a program with hello world, pick some practical interesting problem, and dive right into it.

Assuming you are able to divide and conquer instead of staring at your screen like an autist, you should be able to use stackoverflow and such to find out how to get past every small hurdle you encounter until you eventually manage to build up something that actually accomplishes your task. Boom, you've learned.

Once you actually know how to make python code pick up some book on best practices because your code will look absolutely atrocious. IDK, get some other user to recommend you a good one, I don't python.

That site's shit. Giving hyperlinks a different colour just because, and claims it not being compatible with everything is a good thing.

what language is used for writing blockchain transmission and overall cryptocurrency infrastructure?

English

This doesn't install half of the updates it downloaded.
Can someone direct me to the Russian windows 7 security updates installer?
I can't find it.

Is it possible to download and install windows without another pc?

Thanks for responding. I am thinking about getting ultrawide, it's nice to watch movies on those too. But not sure if 150$ is worth for additional 4". Looks like scum, isn't it? Are those 4" make big difference?

What OS do you have now?

Why russian? Just do a normal update through windows update

Gentoo.

I don't have years.

Nothing. I am on tight budget and i bought a pc and forgot about the os

Is it normal for all devices under the same router to have the same IP?
Aren't they supposed to be different?

pastebin.com/smjvLZN4

If your computer doesn't have anything running on it, it can't do jack shit, and that includes downloading an OS to install. If you've got a copy of linux or something around, that's somewhere to start.

They're different inside your network, not to the outside world.

Thanks.

Is aegis/ancile still able to get rid of the botnet?

Can i download windows or linux from my phone to a 32GB flash drive and install system from it?

Uh I don't know what you mean by $150 but the ultrawide is $30 more.

Personally I would get the ultrawide because $30 isn't a lot, but if you're a poorfag, it probably does make a difference, so it's really up to you to decide.

I mean there is ultrawide 25" for 200$ and ultrawide 29" for 345$. I am wondering if these 4" are making big difference.

With an OTG cable or some such you should be able to assuming your phone has some sort of file management on it.

whats the best site for detecting photo manipulation

I've been looking for a way to get a little bit better performance on my PC. I have an i5 4460 over here and some crappy motherboard.

Is it fine to disable EIST? Does the power consumption get much higher on idle?

I doubt you'll be able to format a drive with an ISO. If you have root access you can get many phones to act as bootable drives themselves. But I expect you would have a hard time with that too. Really you just need to find another computer you can use for a minute to make the drive with rufus.

They wouldn't hurt, but my expectations would be pretty low in the post-rollup era. A lot of what they did was blocking individual updates.

Can I make qbittorrent shut down my computer when one of several downloads complete? Will it work if I pause the others?

Is the Thinkpad anniversary going to be worth it? I have a few year old X1 carbon that I like a lot, and I have like the last think pads I've gotten but I plan on getting the anniversary of it's good. I just don't want to be memed into something if it's shit

>Is it fine to disable EIST?
Yes, but it'll not make your system any faster unless something is fucked up somewhere.

>Does the power consumption get much higher on idle?
Get one of those $10 wall meter things and find out. On a 4460 my bet would be 10w difference tops. I'm running a Ivy chip at ludicrous volts and clocks with all the power saving stuff disabled and my total system power consumption at idle is still only 120w, I think a 4460 would probably idle around 60w or something, depends on your system.

there an add-on or anything where i can right click a hyperlink and choose to send the link directly to say notepad, or something similar?

https

I always assumed that the domain browser si conncecting to is known
just rest is hidden

but I am playing with pfsense and how to monitor traffic using proxy server
and there are guides how to deal with https that require actions on client devices
either importing certificates (man in the middle) or changing browsers proxy settings...

like whatever
but is the core idea that firewall should be able to know how much user uses facebook even if its https is crazy?

try and let us know
option is there, the question is if it waits for paused torrents

you still know where the connection is going, just not what it contains

for some mass downloading?
if yes, have you tried jdownloader?
it monitors clipboard so you click hyperlink and copy and if its a valid hosting site its pasted in to download list

At 1080p, if you aren't sitting waay too far from your monitor, absolutely none.

Is there any reason my internet (or at least wlan connection) keeps dropping out with me being unable to access the router login via the browser and the windows troubleshooter basically says the router is fucked but then when i try accessing the same router page from my netbook the connection suddenly springs back into action again for all devices involved?

Had to reconnect 2 times today because of this shit which just started happening now

i was thinking just to have them like saved for later (and not actually in the browser)
but what is mass downloading?
i guess ill give jdownloader a look

but actually yeah, i do realise what i was thinking of originally, it was just if theres a way to be able to say highlight some text or right click a hyperlink and have an option to paste what ive selected into notepad, and not have to manually paste it
thanks for the jdownloader tip anyway

Turned my back to my computer and a bright blue light came from the screen as if it bluescreened for a short second. What just happened? Only thing I had open was a torrent program.

Where can i find a huge dictionary and password list for a WPA attack.

I want to hack my neighbors wifi and im prety sure his pass isnt very complex.

is solus bad? i just tried it and nothing felt intuitive at all. maybe it's something wrong with me though
im trying to find something lightweight to put on my old laptop since win10 often chokes it up. new to linux btw

am i simply not understanding how youtube-dl is superior to using a video downloading website, because typing in 'youtube-dl.exe' everytime already seems like its at least as much work
please tell me this is going over my head

Reset the router. Try openWRT or something.

Don't worry about it.

Sounds like the hardware is failing but try what the other user said with new furnace to see if it resurrects it

...

Probably nothing.

It was just your imagination, it was nothing.

Create a rainbow table
>Furnace
Firmware*

That's nothing at all, don't worry about it.

It's nothing, you get scared about every flash? Just forget it ever happened.

Trust me dude it was nothing.

I have a desktop with integrated graphics from 2012. What's the cheapest way to bring it into 2015

what cpu?

buy a cheap used gpu, if you want to play vidya then idk

new graphics card?
buy a throw away one off ebay since anything more is 300% over priced

haha
yeah what the hell are you guys up to?

Just started learning C coming from Python and Java

I don't understand pointers. When and why should I use them?
