Is there software for dealing with multiple displays? I'm switching between 2 monitors for desktop use and 1 big TV for gaming, if I disconnect the cables it correctly switches between the setups, is there a way to automate this with software.
David Adams
How about Synergy?
Christian Rivera
says that's for mouse and keyboard sharing across multiple PCs. I have a single PC that I want to switch monitor setups regularly.

How do you record a -proper- cassette tape?
Evan Harris
it's dependent on the OS you're running. most linux desktops can handle this in the settings otherwise there is xrandr or the arandr gui frontend. i have a script using xrandr that is bound to the function keys on my laptop that switches between the builtin display and my tv. one switches off and the other switches on whenever i hit the key.

- get a cassette tape recorder, preferably something with a VU meter so you can see the recording level - hook up a computer to it (typically with a 3.5mm from line-out/speaker out to 2x RCA cable) - play some loud audio on the computer, and adjust the output volume such that you are using as much of the available range without going over the limit (too low and your recording with be quiet/noisy, too high and your recording will be distorted). if you have no VU meter on the recorder, you can also just record and play back samples and listen out for when it starts to distort - take rewound tape and manually wind it past the lead-in section (the clear part of tape that isn't recordable) - place in recorder, press both record and pause at the same time - when ready, release pause, then play the audio on the computer
remember to organize your playlist so each side has less than 45 minutes of audio (assuming standard 90 minute tapes) also look into the various noise reduction options if your recorder supports any

How do I determine if a PCIe Express slot is dead? I've put 2 known working GPUs in the slot and bios doesnt detect it, mobo doesn't flash the "I see there's something there" light..
I'm going to try a PCIe 4x device to see if maybe its just part of the slot that's fucked
Is there a device that can test the slot itself?
Jace Stewart
How come whenever I update there's a new slot?
Dominic Gomez
likely keeps a few around so you can go back to a a previous one if need be

Has anyone seen something in windows 10 where the desktop will flash betwen the normal desktop, completely black and the taskbar in grey? randomly happend today
Jose Adams
How is broadcast cable/satellite television different from online streaming?
How can they stream live events at 1080p+ with absolutely zero lagging, drops in quality etc but online streaming still has consistent issues with lag, quality drop, and even audio desync?
Jack Morris
Ya googled it? There might be a crash log that'll help. I don't actually know
Have you cleaned the slot out? removed dust, blown air through?
Evan Green
Is there any Windows 10 lite version you would recommend to install?
Bentley Fisher
dedicated channels with guaranteed bandwidth, and since it's one-way, there's no need to try to keep latency down, buffer as much as you need consumer internet connections are neither, they're typically handling multiple different connections, and their speed varies
Asher Roberts
Could someone please screenshot their "System" process in Windows 10's task manager? I want to make sure mine isn't running irregularly

If you want to play modern games that use dx12, then you need to upgrade.
Christian Fisher
Barely any games force you to use it, there's like Forza 7, Forza Horizon 3 and that's it. Any other game is backwards compatible and runs exactly the same on DX11.
Robert Allen
Because I shat on you. Lmao.

Dnf saves up to 4 versions of the previous kernel by default iirc if you’d ever have trouble booting on a newer version. In /etc/dnf/dnf.conf you can change how many versions are kept before deleting them.

Not a stupid question, but a stupid solution.
>Problem Chrome won't accept "always open this program with magnet links"
>Solution >Open up Appdata/local/Chrome/default/preference file add in this line
"magnet":true
inside protocol_handler->excluded_schemes like this below
if yours dont format it like json proper, then download notepad++ x86, download json plugin (sourceforge), then make copy of pref file and name it something.json. open it, convert to json format under plugins menu, then edit. Once done, copy paste the entire content back into the proper preference file and save it.

How do I restart my msi gs60 2qe? This happen once before, I think win 10 updated something without consent and not the screen is blank. Non-removeable battery so I can only put it to sleep via power button
How to shut down when I can't see anything?
Sebastian Brown
Hold down the power button for 5-10 seconds and it should power off.
Jaxon Davis
most firmwares will do a hard poweroff by holding the power button for 4 seconds
Adam Powell
Mine was going to sleep before 4-5 seconds, I managed to fiddle with keyboard, login and get it to do something busy and holding power down finally did shut it down. Thank fuck. Working now soon as it restarted rather than sleep.

I'm heading into a "computing technologies" course (branches off into choices like security and game dev later on) and the course director recommended acquainting yourself with the very basics of a language, going on to recommend Python or Lua for beginners. Would these be worth looking at or is there something more useful?
Eli Hill
can someone recommend me how to make firefox look better.
Camden Gutierrez
Is this a good deal for 120€? What part is the bottleneck and will I be able to upgrade it down the line?
Ryan Howard
has the ability to "swipe to the left" to close webms stopped working for anyone else using 4chanx in firefox nightly?? it's been like this for a while. anyone know why?
Mason Edwards
You will be able to add an SSD which is bound to increase responsiveness. Beyond that, the rig is dated and it's probably not worth upgrading anything.
Oliver Cooper
Go ask in they literally have an entire thread dedicated to the things. IIRC soft has better suction while you can feel the internal texture better with hard.
Try searching github gists or the archives for more customization. Especially during the last month since that's when Quantum was released.
Eli Jackson
Is this the right place to ask about vlc player? the vid freezes when I try to watch an anime intro with stylized soft subs, it works fine when I disable the subs. Is this a font problem or is my pc too weak?
Noah Harris
I did that, i just wanna get rid of some space and text and make that he did didn't group tabs.
Nathan Jackson
>pc too weak this
Aaron Barnes
The bug has been happening for a while, just need to wait. I just use hover or a new tab as a work around for now.
damn, i figured this was the case. thanks for filling me in
Henry James
pc/specs? heavily stylised subs require some cpu effort, yes
Brayden Rivera
>delete torrent in qbittorrent >move files of said torrent somewhere else >Download torrent again in new location of those files >qBt keeps checking it infinite times. It doesn't take forever to finish checking. it just checks the torrent again and again. How do i fix this? I want to move my torrents but changing location in torrent isn't clear. I'd rather move my files manually and re-add torrents in client.
Brayden Lopez
The same way you upgrade any Windows os. Just make an image backup before you do it
Connor White
How do I get a tabbed file explorer on windows 10?
Andrew Scott
There's windows ltsb, not bad I'll say. it doesn't come with Cortana, or any other bloat that hogs your resources. I like how it also just gets security updates once in a while and doesn't receive those "ground breaking" features Microsoft wants you to use. There's a dummy proof guide over at r/piracy that lets you download ltsb and how to activate for free.

My XPS is averaging about 50ms ping when it's right next to the router. It will also regularly cut out and drop packets. Is this a faulty WiFi card?
Jordan King
try putting the url into youtube-dl even if the site isn't explicitly supported, youtube-dl also has a generic extractor which works with a number of sites
Ryan Clark
If the drivers and Windows are up to date then yes probably. Try disabling all firewalls and see if it still happens.

Seriously, how the hell do you manage to get an Exchange mail account to work on linux? I've been trying with both Evolution and Thunderbird; the set-up works and I manage to get e-mails the first time I log in, but every time after that it can't connect to the server.
Aaron Kelly
in qbit, right click the torrent and select "Set Location"

What am I supposed to do with old phones? I just upgraded from a Galaxy S III to a Galaxy J7. I also have an ancient HTC One V.
lol im retarded. I'm not moving from drive to drive so it should be instant. But problem remains. Why does my torrent keeps re-checking itself when i already have 100% of the files it contains? It just fixed itself now for no reason after 1.5 hour.
Jordan Carter

My laptop keeps shutting down unexpectedly and I have no idea where to start trying to figure out why. The heat was originally under 30 C when I turned it on (it booted much slower than normal) and the temps are stuck to where they are now which feels a bit warm to the touch considering I just have five tabs and speccy open. I did notice that the storage temp rose above 40 a few times and that some time ago it was hitting almost 50 and my laptop was experiencing the same thing. My ssd is nearly full (~20 gb left free), and I was wondering if this might be the reason.

Is there any good reason to use Windows 10? I want a reason to run it on a VM inside another OS.
Evan Cruz
Yeah, if you've bought a game from microsoft.
Joseph King
Ironically enough you can now run linux within Windows 10 now
Caleb King
seeing how awful it is to really make you appreciate whatever os you're using

tl;dr: is it possible to somehow randomise the positions of numbers when decrypting Android on boot using a pin? Or is it hardcoded deep and can't be changed realistically?

Also posted this in /spg/, please help
My phone died in the cold while I'm overseas. The first time it happened I managed to revive by bringing it indoors and charging it. I decided to bring a power bank the next time, and while it immediately revived when I plugged it in, later on the phone died again and this time it's not responding despite being warmed up indoors and being charged.
It's a HTC10, what do? I really don't fucking want my lifeline to die while I'm on holiday. It's been an hour since it's been indoors and still not responding

Go into BIOS and reset it to factory defaults. If that doesn't fix it try updating it.

Never had to rely on CPU integrated GPU before. I watched some videotest. But i still feel like i needed to ask.
