What is this font

looks like a narrow fixed font
can't be that many narrow fixed fonts to sift through

how do I mass download all the pictures from an instagram account?

did you try googling "instagram downloader"?

How people make this (pic) ?

Ricing and using a program like scrot to take a picture

How do I wipe a hard drive if every computer refuses to run if I plug it in? I want to RMA it but I'm paranoid the NSA will take my anime porn stash without having to earn it themselves.

Standard HDD? I.e. not an SSD?

Industrial strength degaussing wand.

This can be done in any linux distro. Just wipe the DE and WM (if any) that comes with the distro and replace it with a minimalist WM like Awesome. Then rice.
done

InstaG Downloader. Works better on vivaldi than Chromium for me these days. it bulk downloads all vids and pics into a zip.

Cheap HDD to USB adapter. DBAN,

Can I extract a tar/bz2 without the contents being put into /tmp first?

Pretty straightforward to do this in the linux command line

there's a good chance he might believe you made that up

don't extract them to /tmp first? tar doesn't extract to /tmp unless you tell it to

This seems to be working. Thank you.

I was trying to use the built in GUI extractor. It would extract to /tmp locally first, regardless of where you told it to extract

I can only post once every 3 minutes with 4chanx on chrome
it'll tell me I forgot to solve the captcha, even if I have multiple cached in

does alpha brain work

I cannot for the life of me figure out why this script is throwing an ORA-00907: MISSING RIGHT PARENTHESIS error. Any ideas?

Sup Forums won't even let me post the code without throwing an error:

>the built in GUI extractor
that's very inspecific, tar doesn't have a "built in GUI extractor", so you could be talking about anything

heeeelp i dont wanna fry the mother!

Post Speccy to check if it uses DDR4 or DDR3.

You mean the thing I just mentioned? It doesn't have all the pages.

looks like a bug that's referenced by oracle
try doubling up the single quotes by adding another single quote to each side and see if that fixes it

What happened to her?

it came (and works with) ddr3 / pc3l ram, the ram i wanna use is ddr3l

judging by the name i assume you're talking about one of those stupid nootropics or brain power 'supplements' of the sort the infowars guy sells to gullible Sup Forumsacks
no they don't work
the whole point of labeling them as a 'supplement' instead of a drug is that they have basically no regulatory requirements to prove it actually does what it says, contains real active ingredients, or has any health benefits whatsoever
(you can thank the homeopathic nonsense industry for bribing this regulatory loophole into existence)
if you believe the label on that bottle of pills you're worse than the stay-at-home moms trying to cure cancer with homeopathic crystal-healing chakra vibration pills

>What is an OS?
>What is bundled software?

he didn't mention any

How strong of a gfx card would I need to run two 1080p screens + one 4k TV? won't be used for gaming besides maybe ps2 emulation, which is really more cpu dependent anyway. mostly just browsing and watching movies (what the 4k screen is for)

I've never felt like there were a generational gap in technology until I tried to search curious cat. I can't even see any instructions or FAQs apart from safety. How do I search either a users questions or answers?

has anyone been personally banned from Amazon for making too many returns? sometimes I'm bored and I impulse buy shit off Amazon, knowing that if I don't like it, I can just return it without any risk (I have Prime so no shipping costs)

I've heard if you return too much you can be banned from further returns, but others sites say that's unlikely

I bought 12 things in 2017 and returned 3 of them

I broke my laptop screen so I picked up the cheapest monitor I could find in the meantime, which didn't have an HDMI in, so I had to buy a VGA/HDMI adapter, but the picture on the monitor is pretty garbage. Anyone know how to fix that?

And I don't mean "pretty garbage" as in not mega HD photoshop pro quality. This would be noticeably "blurry" to anyone, although it's still functional.

Is it a monitor or a TV?

What's stopping me from posting the same question X amount of times every thread?

What's the best site/software to download from Youtube? Trying to collect some old cartoons and it's the only place I can find with a few episodes/series I need.

It's a monitor.

What's the best backup utility available to windows?
Looking for something that works very similar to time machine on OSX

I have a question on a friend's behalf since i tried to find a solution and couldn't find fuck all.

A friend of mine bought a 144hz display recently (LG 24GM77, one I also have) and can't manage to get it to work at designated refresh rate at 1080p, 60hz being the limit. He's using a HDMI 2.0 cable (we also tried my DP), which theoretically should work fine (his GPU is a 980, so it does support 2.0). Mine works flawlessly with an RX480 and Windows 10, but he's on 7, but considering it's a display from 2014, this shouldn't be an issue. The only drivers availabl for it are for Windows 10, even though it supports it from get go.
Is there something dumb we're missing?

Check that the resolution matches with the monitor resolution.

Anyone?

Thanks!

is it normal to feel infatuated with qt TAs when watching ocw videos

Is there an Android app I can use to remote control my Windows 10 Home PC? I have my PC and monitor on my desk and I want to mess with it from the bed (really only turn it off or close running applications).

Bonus points if something lets me stream audio out to my phone too.

Any remote desktop client.
Chrome Remote Desktop plugin works pretty well from my experience, the only thing it lacks is a wake on lan support

What windows do you think would run the best on this?

Currently running Win 10 Pro but with a ton of services disabled so it doesn't lag much but was wondering if I would get significant performance increase from say WIn 7 64bit

That was the first thing I did.

>Chrome Remote Desktop plugin works
Do you have a suggestion that doesn't force me to use a Google account to log in?

Teamviewer or something else. I just found Chrome to be the quickest and hassle-free way to do this

Maybe for you, it isn't hassle free if it requires a Google account + login. I've used VNC and stuff before, all this sort of application really needs is a PIN. Piping the functionality through Google's motherbrain just seems like more evil skynet tier garbage. I hope the people at Google that force all this kind of spy shit lose everything they own due to security fraud or something

>it isn't hassle-free
For 98% of people using chrome it is, considering they're logged into it on their phones and computers, so it boils down to a single button press after pairing the devices

how do i install this game

I dropped my s8 and the corner has a small crack with some shattered bits. It hasn't reach the touchscreen part, but should I put tape over it before I get it replaced. Feel like an ass when I've never cracked my Nexus 4.

Did you try literally reading the words on the screen? I know this is a pretty complicated task, since the log is multiple sentences long and most computer users find it too difficult to even read the "OK" and "Cancel" labels on buttons to find out what they do. But I believe in you user.
>The major and minor number of the compiler used to compile the kernel does not match the compiler used here

I have a NAS with 4 old hdd that i'm using until i need more space or they break. Previously one had 1247 bad sectors, but recently that's reduced to 2 with no interdiction by myself. How can a hdd improve itself, or is this just the program not realising how fucked it is?

Thanks. [spoiler]And thanks for not making fun of me for asking something that gets asked a lot, apparently[/spoiler]

I WILL make fun of you for fucking up your spoiler tags, though

If I want to access email on my smartphone conveniently, is it best to use a specific email app, the actual email service's app, or my web browser app?

this hard bump popped up on my thumb out of nowhere a couple days ago
am i going to die

You need a virtual disk tool to mount that BIN file onto.
Daemon tools comes to mind.

not if you remove your thumb quickly

> a specific email app
This
Most email providers' apps are either shit or botnet, and if you have email accounts from multiple separate providers it turns into an incompatible clusterfuck
On android, I suggest K-9 Mail.

Using any app is more convenient than opening a browser and going to email provider's website.
If you're using gmail, might as well go for the gmail app, since you're already in the botnet, so you can use all available features google offers

use magic iso or something to convert the bin into ISO. if you're in windows 7 or above you should be able to just double click mount the iso and install it like a regular game. idk how i find this sort of stuff so simple, when i can't do the most basic programming stuff for school. i'm literally 5 hours into writing a fibonacci sequence in 8086 asm and i haven't gotten anything done, am i literally retarded Sup Forums?

is there any reason to install my chipset drivers?

I read the log and I know what the installer is recommending. What I want to know is how do I change the CC variable to the GCC version to which the kernel is compiled.

>assembly
just use javascript lmao it's the language of the future

>K-9 Mail
Will try that.
Got any recommendations for a Phone app? All I use is stock (I have phone service so it doesn't have to be something like Whatsapp or Skype).

>Teamviewer
This worked excellent, thanks for the rec

we were assigned to write a fibonacci in 8086, due tommorow, but im in fucking 7th grade and i can't solve something like a second degree equation, why am i even being taught the fundamentals of computer architectures?

write a js interpreter in 8086 asm, then

If that's really what you wanted to know and you're not just trying to save face over being terrible at reading error messages (on an anonymous imageboard!), then you are instead terrible at asking questions.

A post along the lines of "how do I set an environment variable in ganoo slash linux?" would be very quickly answered, and the answer would look something like this:
searx.me/?q="cc environment variable"

Yeah, i just trying to save my face on an anonymous imageboard.

Also, thanks for your help.

Should I get windows 10 pro or just stick with normal windows 10? Is their any benefit to using one over the other?

How many packages has debian minimal?

its no use, i know im toast one way or the other. i've consistently been the lowest achieving in my class, be it math, languages, or chem. feelsdumbman...

I need to buy some antenna components from an international source because I can't get them locally. Am I better off using a chink site or a site dedicated to this kind of thing?

if a VPN was using virtual machines and you connected to one and it was running on FreeBSD so it does have VM unique IP-- would that obfuscate the traffic incoming into the VPN instead of the VPN just handling traffic in a routing sense?

>with tommorow and 4chx
when opening a thread or pressing the back button [on4chan] the page is white for a moment and it is blinding
how to make this white bg into #1D1F21 [tomorrow's colour] so it doesn't flash me all the time?

tried css in firefox for new tab page and gtk3 enable dark variant but that was not it so it's not from the application but [hopefully] from the page itself

So I'm using Win7 and discovered that if you disable Aero/Themes, your VSync doesn't function. This leads to tearing and shit. Is there a proper fix for this? Aside from "enable Aero/install windows 10/get a mac/install gnu/linux"?

bored and curious user here, been interested in computer science for ages. what are some interesting rabbit holes i can fall into to kill time with purpose?

What do you guys think the chances are, that tho sreally has a k series in it. Ram description is derp too

ClassicAE theme, or Freesync/G-Sync.

I've been getting this message for a week.
No idea what's causing it.
That being said, I dont actually want any help.
This is the best thing Windows 10 has ever done for me. Doubly so because this is a craptop.

which email providers allow me to create uncommon but legal RFC 5322-compliant email addresses such as
"very.(),:;[]\".VERY.\"very@\\ \"very\".unusual"@strange.example.com
or
"()[]:,;@\\\"!#$%&'-/=?^_`{}| ~.a"@example.org

Any good windows 10 pro activtors out there? I just updated from windows 7 and this seems like its more than just getting a "windows loader" that gives you a legit copy instantly. I really want to change my theme.

I have access to IPT but don't really know what to look for. And desu alot of shit seems shady as fuck, I got something from teamOS, which worked fine for me for years and that just fucked me really bad.

Something made a pop noise followed by a burning smell in my pc. It reset but won't post now, keeps resetting after a few seconds. The power supply turns on and runs by itself with the paper clip trick but keeps resetting with even just mobo, CPU and HSF connected.

Is it more likely my psu or something else fried?

How do I make my dick bigger?

sounds like a capacitors, look them up and see if there is any sign of any blow outs on the mobo

Windowsfag here, whats the advantage of using MPV over MPC-HC? Also whats the best way to use MPV? Are any of the gui frontends worth using?

Tiger balm applied directly to penis twice a day.

looking for an easy way to get all tab URLs in a specific window in firefox.
Web Extensions or stuff.

is getting an SSD worth it? i don't really need the extra speed save for playing rainbow six siege.
