MalwareBytes caught a virus/malware .exe before it could execute. It quarantined the file and I deleted it. I also ran a scan with rkill and it didn't find anything odd. Should I do anything else or am I good?

You should be good, but make sure that you stay alert and pay attention to any behavior that seems out of the ordinary.

Anyone here have experience booting Linux on a GPT disk on a BIOS-based computer?
I am trying to boot the newest version of Ubuntu that is on a 4TB GPT HDD (in 3 partitions) on a BIOS-based computer. It is not going well; I end up at the grub rescue> prompt. Any advice or sharing of experience would be appreciated.
"Many Internet sources, particularly discussion groups, assert that it's impossible to boot a GPT disk on a BIOS computer. This is nonsense—or at least, it's true only of certain OSes" --rodsbooks.com/gdisk/booting.html

Maybe even repair them both to working condition instead of having to buy replacements? depends on what the issue is, if it's a physical issue, it's likely unrepairable. make an image using ddrescue to get as much as you can, then replace the disk >is it possible to replace the hard drive of a ASUS MiniTransformer? it doesn't contain a hard drive, you probably can replace the eMMC, though i'm not sure how easy it'd be >what's the best desktop wifi card to buy? idk, something with 802.11AC i guess, i don't really use wifi much, nor do i use it on my desktop >how're you doing this new years day? ok, i guess

What is an image tool that saved the target media to the source not in iso format but actually keeps the entire file structure (including hidden/system folders) intact? Talking a standard win 7 C system partition here, i basically just want a simple carbon coby to the target disk but with drag and drop it would likely miss half of the shit due to folders being hidden and whatnot so i'm searching for a software solution instead
Dylan Martin
how do you do arrays through pointers, I've heard this was possible
as in like, if I want to make a size 2 "array" of doubles. I can malloc(16) and it would be a pointer to 16 bytes of memory, 16 because that's 2*8. so is there a way to fill up the first 8 bytes with the double I want as the first "element in the array" and the last 8 bytes with the other double I want as the second element?
and how do you extract what's in a certain portion of a pointer? like to get the first element of my "array" I'd somehow extract the first 8 bytes and get an actual number (somehow)
this is stupid but thanks if there are any answers

Anyone have a good tutorial on using cmake? I just want to know how to write a file to use cmake to generate a makefile and all I can find are tutorials on how to compile projects that use cmake.
Lincoln James
You can Google this very easily. Below are some examples of creating, accessing, and deleting pointers in C. int arraySize = 2; double* array = malloc(arraySize*sizeof(double)); *array = 3.14; //or array[0] = 3.14; *(array +1) = 2.72;// or array[1] = 2.72;
double a = *array; //a has a value of 3.14 //or memcpy(&a, array+1, sizeof(double)); //a has a value of 2.72 //you might have to cast the pointers to void pointers (void*)
//Don't forget to free your pointers! free(array);

ebay is just a middleman between you and the seller this isn't gonna be some consistent central ebay policy ask the actual guy you're returning it to
Gabriel Wilson
I'm just a bit concerned because the window on ebay is "you have to ship it back within 5 days of requesting the refund" so I don't wanna request it and end up wasting a few of those days going back in forth in messages because something was unclear with the label, if that makes sense

some download managers (like downthemall for old firefox and also youtube-dl) set the file's date to whatever the server optionally sends as the file's "last modified" date, i don't like it though since it makes it hard to find recently downloaded files by sorting
archives like zips also preserve modification dates for files inside them if you've extracted them from one

Is there any sort of decently priced 'mixer' type thing that can sit on my desk (or be mounted underneath) that I can plug my 3.5mm headphone and mic cable into and like individually adjust the volume and what not?
I really just want it because plugging the cables directly to my computer now is in a really awkward position and putting stress on the cable. The only things I've seen that match what I'm looking for are amps but they're usually really expensive and I'm not even sure if you can plug a mic into them as well?
Could just buy as male-female 3.5mm extender and have them come from the back of the PC but seems like a really inelegant solution
Zachary Jackson
sounds more like you just want two volume controls, not a mixer
Jonathan Baker
i don't know, maybe windows 10 reads the date from some metadata field in the file?
i tried saving some images from dilbert.com but they're in .gif format with no metadata, the response doesn't include a "Last-Modified" date and i'm on windows 7
Easton Carter
Ahhhhhh yep that does look like what I'd need. Would plugging a mic into one of them control the volume of the mic then?
Ethan King
yes, it would it's just a potentiometer

>Adobe After Effects CC 2018
How do I change my OpenGL to my graphics card? The GPU gets around 10% activity while my CPU is blasting at a constant 100% with slowdowns.
Already added my GPU to the compatibility list in the notepad in the After Effects folder.
Updated the drivers and set my GPU physics to the GPU.
(The GPU works at 100% while playing games like World of Warcraft)
Juan Murphy
Might just tinker up my own though to be completely honest, doubt it would be too hard and could make it exactly to how I want it
Wyatt Edwards
np you could also consider making one yourself as a simple electronics project just need; - a plastic box - two potentiometers (one "stereo") - four 3.5mm jacks (two stereo), two pairs of in/out - some wire - soldering iron/solder if you don't already have one they're really just plugs wired together with a pot in between them, nothing special
Jayden Walker
(you can use a stereo pot/plugs with a mic as well, just won't make a difference since a single mic is mono)

What brands do you recommend for an external hard drive? Only need a 250GB one really.

I'm looking at a couple of 2 in 1s for illustration. They're almost the same spec-wise, except for the CPU. One's a i7 (5th Gen) 6500U,and the other is an i5 7200U (7th gen). Any idea which would be best here for some smooth Photoshop/illustrative work? Light gaming would be a plus, as far as I know 6500U has an okay-ish integrated GPU.
Any suggestions?

Installed new Windows on a new computer, plugged my old hard drive in so I could still access the files. It works, but whenever I navigate to a new directory on that drive, it takes ages. Like, 5 minutes at least. After that, I can go to and from the directory no problem. Additionally, every folder shows up as empty on mouseover unless I've done the aforementioned initial wait on it before.
Whatever it's doing, is there a way to turn it off? Or if it's necessary, is there a way to make it do it all at once so I don't have to be there to open every single directory on the drive myself?
Christian Nelson
have you made an EF00 type fat32 partition, and mounted it on /boot?
Lucas Hughes
You might could try adding the drive to the indexing options menu. Just open start, search for indexing options, and add the drive. You'll have to restart the service afterwards.

I bought a new laptop with i5-7200, Nvidia 940mx, 4gb ram and it's running on Windows 10.
My question is, why is it slower compared to my old laptop with some ancient i3 cpu running on Windows 7? It can't even open more than 10 browser tabs without being laggy as fuck, particularly after the latest windows update. Meanwhile, my old laptop can handle like 30+ tabs just fine.

Try disabling most telemetry options in settings. Looks like it's sending your entire disk to their servers. Also use a lighter weight internet browser. I'd suggest FF, but quantum broke a bunch of shit.
Alright I've done that and disk usage has certainly decreased though I don't know yet if overall performance has improved for good or it will revert to the previous state after this. Thanks.
