If i install my 2080s as my secondary gpu and hook up a 4k tv to it, will it run 120hz without the drivers installed?

I tried installing windows 95 on virtualbox and I couldn't finish the process because I couldn't type the semicolon, I even tried using autohotkey and it didn't work. I'm using a laptop btw, is there another way to do install it?

Does Android no longer have the option to mount SD as internal storage natively? I know it used to be a thing in Lollipop (Nexus 5/6x) days, have they removed it since then or am I looking at the wrong place? All the articles showing how to do it use older Android versions, there's no three dot menu at the top right. It's an old phone running a jeet abandonware ROM, AOSP based Android 11.

there are drivers installed even if you don't install them. windows has them built in but they aren't as performant but I would suspect they can still do 120hz

use an emulator built to run such old software. you need to emulate old hardware.

Alright linux friends, I've got a hard one for you here.

I need help formating a .bashrc

Currently, I am using bash within tmux, and I am using the supplied bashrc and bashlogout in the pastebin.
Here is my requirement for the .bashrc.

Infinite
Syncronized between windows
Time and date marked
Ignores spaces in when writing history (does not write midnight commander working commands)
Erases dupes

The problem I have is that it either erases my history on exit, except for the last tmux window I close. For example:

Window 1
Written: Test 1
Window 2
History: Test 1
Written: Test 2
Window 3
History: Test 1
History: Test 2
Written: Test 3

On exit, the history of Window 2 and 3 is deleted, and I only see Test 1 in this bashhistory. Is there a way to have a syncronized history memory, in any tmux window, no matter which order it was opened or closed, while still deleting dupes from the history file, while writing to the file after each command? I have spent hours tinkering with bash, but I am yet to come up with a solution. Perhaps you wizards can help.

How much of these come in a tray? I'm sure they're not selling 16GB flash for $27 a piece. That would equate to $1.68/GB which is a far cry from SSDs which approach $0.05/GB and are way faster. Even if you were to buy in bulk it still would be far off.

If I have 2 torrent clients open at the same time, could I not connect to twice the number of peers and download at twice the rate?

>>96086687
Having two clients open doesn't make the peer count go higher. And making the peer count go up doesn't increase your bandwidth. (do you have a 10 gigabit line or something?)
Ideally you'd want to find a rough number that makes your stuff go full speed and set a limit there. Adding more peers after that point only increase the packet overhead -> actually lowering the net speed of getting the file(s) you want. Pressure on the word "rough" as you can't possibly know how much a random peer is going to offer you their bandwidth or how good is your connectivity to that random peer.
Example: I got a 10Mbit line (I know, current year) and roughly know that 100 peers globally is going to saturate my bandwidth -> I set a hard limit of 80.

Yes. You just need to make sure your PC supports it. But since you already had more ram in your PC, then you can surely just stick them in and go for it.
Just in case though, I'd watch a guide on doing it, but ram is the easiest shit in the world to install. Just make sure it's tight as malfunctioning ram can ruin a PC as I'm sure you already know.

Make sure you stick to this and do it asap. 16 GB of ram isn't expensive. 100$ if that.

Learn to use specific words because they matter in computing. If you mean lost your Windows password you can easily boot a live USB to reset your password and this is a fine time to practice. Everyone should have a USB toolkit. There are many tutorials. I use Ventoy by writing the .iso to USB.

https://www.ventoy.net/en/doc_start.html

Then paste some toolkit .isos both Windows and Linux, but for this password reset

https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/sergei_strelecs_winpe.html

works fine. I would later add Windows install .isos and live Linux like Kali.

There are many ways to do this. Ignore spergtards this time and do the above. You'll find the password tools in the programs menu.

Have fun and play with live tools as they can do so much for you. They're good enough for general use if your hard disk dies.

>>96089374
HP (and any manufacturer) will always have drivers on their website. Find the proper ones for your model, put them on a flash drive, and have fun. You might need to disable secureboot in order to wipe the drive, and you'll might need specific drivers loaded into the Windows installation process when you get to the step for choosing drive to wipe. Sometimes laptop mfgs are cunts and hide them because they want you installing their bloatware.

Sounds like a driver problem, make sure you got everything up to date and try different ones if you do.

>>96086459
what are you trying to do? It sounds like you're trying to install something from source, in which case the usual process is to go to the directory in a terminal,
then run ./configure
then make
then make install
then make clean
then make distclean
but that's assuming a nicely written program.
the ./configure script sets variables for your computer, in the make file,
the make actually builds the program,
the make install moves the program to your systems folders and the others delete the extra files made when building from source.
you can usually just scan the output each step for any warnings about missing packages and install those... Reading the actual source code of the program is what you would do if you're trying to modify the program.

Connect your computer directly to your modem to rule out your router being the problem. If it's still slow then your provider just isn't giving you the speeds you're paying for.

>>96090708
I believe I've done a direct connection before and got the same results. So there's no other reasons then, it's definitely a company thing?

>>96083696
can i declare a variable with a numeric-only name in some language?

>>96090716
It's pretty unlikely that it's a cable issue, but you should rule that out too. Grab a laptop or something and connect it to the modem with a short, known-good cable and see if you get the same results. Or use your long cable and transfer a file between two local machines with it, and if you can get higher speeds between them then the cable's fine.
But yeah chances are it's your ISP and you should have them come out and fix it.

Well, it's a cat5 which according to >>96090862
can't even get the speeds I'm paying for anyways so even if the ISP is at fault, once they improve my speed I still want a cable that can handle it.

>It's practically the exact same on wifi and cable
Then it's very obviously something your ISP fucked up

I'm experiencing a strange issue related to wifi speeds or rather the way they are presented. I have a 500/100 connection (fiber) and when connecting directly to the router using a network cable I receive full speed. If I do a wifi speedtest using the terminal it claims around 460Mbit/s and when performing a real usage test (i.e. file transfer) I'm receiving speeds of around 50MB/s which is perfectly fine and more or less saturating the connection.

However, If I use Ookla or some other type of browser related speedtests (even domestic which should offer great peering) it never displays anything above 200-300Mbit/s. What could be causing this? Is it somehow DNS related? Or do the speedtest use such a small transfer size that it doesn't allow the connection to reach its full speed?

The strange thing is that I recently moved and in my old apartment it always displayed full speeds in the browser tests. At the new house the wifi situation is much more crowded which I thought was causing poor speeds but the speeds themselves don't seems to be bad, it's just that they are displayed as bad with Ookla for instance.

>>96091175
What does fast.com say? It's Netflix, so in their interest to show an accurate speed test.

>>96091194
It also claims approx 300Mbit/s which is so strange since real usage is much higher yet neither of the browser tests display anything about 200-300Mbit/s, even though they've done so in the past with the same units, same router and same connection (albeit a different adress but still). If I try a local version (bredbandskollen.se) which is based here in Sweden I still get the same results, yet if I use http://speedtest.tele2.net/ and initialize a 10GB download for instance it instantly jumps to 50B/s and hovers around 45-55MB/s. The same if I go and download Ubuntu or some other distro, an instant (and constant) 50MB/s.

>>96091328
50MB/s = 400Mb/s. Are you mixing up your Bytes and Bits?

>>96090999
>Smartest Countries 2023
>Top 3 are asian
You better be asian, my friend

>>96091347
Yeah, I'm aware that 50MB/s isn't the same as 500Mbit/s but real life tests still perform 50-100% higher than browser based test (or rather flash bashed tests since a regular browser download instantly reached 50MB/s). I'm not expecting to be able to utilize my full speed since it's quite unrealistic due to various circumstances related to wifi but what I don't understand is why the flash based tests perform so poorly when they've displayed around 500Mbit/s in the past utilizing the same setup.

I'm trying to redeem USD google play card codes while outside of the US. 2 years ago I've done this with the same account with no issues:

>double-check to make sure location is in US

>open Play Store again
>make sure store is showing USD
>redeem code
However in the past two years I've tried redeeming again, but it doesn't work even after all those steps. I get the error message:
>Couldn't redeem this code. This code can only be used in United States. See Gift Card terms of service.
which is what I would get whenever I tried redeeming without turning on my VPN. My account displays USD prices even without the VPN. I also have a United States profile in Account and device preferences.
Do I just try again with a different VPN or am I fucked somehow? Did my account get flagged?

>>96091408
Also, when using Cloudflares speed test it claims 450Mbit/s.
https://speed.cloudflare.com/

>>96091408
300Mb/s = 37.5MB/s and 45MB/s = 360Mb/s. You're comparing 300 to 360 or 37.5 to 45. Just use the same units everywhere. A Byte has 8 Bits. Your speeds are in the same ballpark, but you're not seeing it because you're using different units. How many hops it takes to reach the speedtest server and how many different networks are involved matter. So 10% or 20% difference is quite normal. I don't really see your problem.

>>96091568
Cloudflare is consistently displaying 450-470Mbit/s whereas other services never display anything above approx. 250Mbit/s. The speeds are obviously reaching 50-55MB/s which would be the equivalent of around 400-450Mbit/s yet most speedtests display significantly less (like 50% less) which is very misleading.

When I've done these types of tests in the past they have been much more consistent with the actual speeds achieved, yet now they seem to display maybe half of that. I'm just curious as to why this is happening since I initially believed there was something wrong with my connection or wifi network before doing further tests, like I said it's displayed more realistic usage speeds in the past but as of recent has a hard time reaching more than 200-250Mbit/s.

>>96091642

However Ookla gives you 250 to 300. You want to know what's up. Use traceroute I guess, to find out where the bottleneck is using Ookla, and why Cloudflare doesn't suffer from the same bottleneck.

Hmm okay and what about the other way around? I don't have a recent example, but in example on a website which has flags ala /int/ (but not 4chan obviously) it shows American flag when I connect to Israel VPN.

>>96092673
It depends on how the website determines your location. There are multiple databases they can use. And not all give the same answer, as you found out. And if they use multiple methods with conflicting answers, which one do they use? The reality is that almost all VPNs use these type of 'virtual ip' addresses, where the ip is registered in location A, but the actual server with the VPN software on it is in location B. The only really relevant question is if it works for your use case. If you want to watch German TV, does the ZDF or ARD website accept you are in Germany, although the VPN server is in Turkey using a German registered IP address?

I tried googling this first, but couldn't find anything remotely about it.

I recently updated my windows for the first time in years to play Starfield. I regret this for a dozen reasons already, but this one is becoming the most frustrating. Whenever I click on a file - any file - I get a brief moment of loading (sometimes even with a loading wheel) before it lets me access the file. I'm also finding that any file I click on is getting "Accessed" by something even if I don't open it, which I think is related. For example, I haven't opened, touched, or changed the file in pic related since 2020. But by Rclicking it, it hanged for a full second, the menu popped up, I clicked Properties, and thus it says it was just accessed. This was not the case prior to the windows update. Before updating, I could inspect a file's properties without it being accessed and without this frustrating delay. Also, once I've waited for this initial accessing delay, a file will be snappy like usual and the "Accessed" time won't update until I think a minute has passed. Once a minute has passed, it'll have another delay and then a new Accessed timestamp.

Does anyone know what could be causing this? Or how I can check for myself what's causing this? It's just a second delay for each file, but it's frustrating the hell out of me and I know it was never doing this before.

Stupid app-specific question incoming:
I use Read Chan when on mobile. Is there an option in this app or an alternate that allows me to auto-bookmark or save a list of my frequented general threads?
It's not that going to the board and searching is too much work for my soft babyhands, just that it would be a nice convenience.

I have two folders A and B.
If I git clone a repo in A and copy it under B, can I do regular git operations like branches or commits?
What if I do different git operations and sync these two folders? Do they have combined git log?

Are there any completely free and actually genuinely easy-to-use (one-click/no command line bullshittery, no manual routing) VPN apps designed specifically for use with Linux? And if there are, if there are several of them, which ones are currently considered the best by /g/ or general Linux-using audience? Which is the definite go-to for Linux newfags who migrated from Shitblows recently, for one, such as Mint or Zorin users? Also, same question about web browser add-ons/plugins.

I agree wth this idea, my mom's phone fucked up last summer because of this, she lost a lot of data
Phone was only 16GB, so I used a 32GB MicroSD card as integrated storage
Had been fine for 2-3 years
From time to time I monitored it, seeing how full it got
It never reached capacty, only ever reached max 50%
And the phone flash never reached full ether
Stupidly I thought this meant everything was fine, as I thought this meant the phone was always preferring to do writes esp temporary writes (watching videos, app cache, browsing cache writes etc), and the card was only being used for permanent storage
So I wasn't worried about it dying
I was wrong, clearly Android made no bones about using the card for temp writes - probably preferentially to the phone flash, which is dumb
Then it died suddenly, too many writes, and so apps and data and some storage was lost

For once I agree wth something Google is doing, removing that feature is a good idea. Back in the days of 8/16 GB storage phones it made sense
Now 64 is the minumum even for budget phone
Mid range commonly get 128
So no need for the integrated storage thing, which is a disaster waiting to happen

you have to look at the stats to see if they match

ddr2 only compat with ddr2, ddr3 wth ddr3, ddr4 with ddr4 etc
then you have to look at the voltage, mae sure the voltage matches
then frequency and timings
lower frequency than normal may be ok
higher might also be ok but t will be limited to what the motherboard is specd at

you can look at cheap chink ram form aliexpress

windows 11 let boot manager handle the process, not the bios.
In bios, it only displays a generic name "windows boot manager" but mine somehow also has "960 EVO" on it, so it was confused. Probably EFI file is stored on this drive.

Different anon here. I'm using Firefox+uBlock on mobile and sometimes 4chan fails to download images on mobile. Doesn't matter whether uBlock is active or not. It either gets stuck in an infinite download process or it says that it failed and it eventually works after I spam the retry button.

Also, sometimes when I upload a picture Firefox crashes.

Anything I can do to fix this stuff? I've used 4chanX before, but didn't find it all that useful. Maybe I should revisit it, but I don't know what features might motive me. Maybe as a last resort if I can't fix Firefox. And yes I've tried every other mobile browser. Their adblockers were bad. Maybe I should switch to ad blocking DNSs and get a more stable browser, I don't know.

Emacs is way heavier than Vim. It's almost like an operating system. Vim is lighter, just does modal editing, and is installed almost everywhere. So ssh into a random Linux server and you will usually have it. Not so with Emacs. The keybindings are different. Emacs uses the Meta key a lot, with keyboard shortcuts often consisting of multiple keys. Both editors have their proponents, but most often either one or the other. I'm in the Vim camp. Hate Emacs. I've never really understood the Emacs attraction, and have tried lots of times. Always go back to Vim.

I'm currently running zoneminder on a celeron board that consumes about 28 watts.

I also have a threadripper workstation that consumes about 200 watts idling and consumes about 228 watts running zoneminder with the same settings.

I need an instance of MacOS that's always on because reasons, but I'd like to minimize expense and power consumption, because 200 watts heats my place a lot in the summer. So, I could get a mac mini and run the Shinobi NVR software on it instead, or I could run MacOS in a VM, but I don't think that'll last as long since it depends on apple not breaking it in some way, or breaking imessage for Ventura after a new version releases that's only available for Apple Silicon.

it's unreasonable to expect all documentation to be written like you don't know anything at all

yeah but be even-handed about it. the way I see this crop up is that later features are described in terms of earlier features, as if you expect people reading your documentation to read it front to back like a novel instead of looking up things they want to know. that may well be how the documentation was written, but it is certainly now how documentation is used. if some details of the overall system made sense to explain for feature X, they should be explained for feature Y too.

A year ago a friendly /g/ anon helped me out on finding a host for a website which was namecheap. I use a basic shared host plan to have a website up and upload some tiny shit i make to share with everyone. I noticed that there were no storage limits so i also used it as a personal archive but it was just recently, well over a year where i was emailed by namecheap about archiving being against TOS and that i need to remove said files. However in the warning email they suggested on switching to a dedicated server and on contacting support, i was told that if i do use a dedicated server and i quote "they dont exactly regulate what i do with the dedicated server" and "if you want to keep these archives, you can upgrade your hosting plan to Dedicated Server." Right now i cannot afford such plan so i am here to ask if its worth bothering to find a host that doesnt care what i do with my storage or if i should just get more physical storage and have dummy accounts on all sorts of file-sharing services.

A boomer coworker has a Nokia T20 tablet that she wants to hook up to the TV to watch discovery+. Her TV is an old lg smart TV. I tried casting it on my own TV at home with the built in Miracast and it worked but was very laggy. Would chromecast be better for this or does this tablet support usb-c to hdmi output? Couldn't find anything online about whether it does or not. Just looking to give her some recommendations basically.

There's a switch on my desktop PC case to turn off the electricity (next to the power cable socket).

I've been turning it off every time after shutting down my PC, but recently it started making weird electrical noises on switching.

Could it be causing some damage for some reason? I don't think I ever flipped the switch before the PC would be fully shut down. Surely it doesn't take 5 minutes or something to turn off. AI generated Indian first search result:
>It's generally not recommended to cut the power to your PC after turning it off, as it can potentially cause damage to your hardware and operating system.

>>96110288
How much storage are we talking?

>>96111038
Im guessing something like 500+ GBs would be ok to be more on the safe side than to have pay extra for more storage if needed. I dont have tons of stuff but im simply paranoid of losing data even if its just junk.

>>96111146
You were using a Namecheap website hosting plan for that? Kek.

For 500GB you could use Backblaze B2 for $2.50 per month (plus download costs of I think 1 cent per GB) Or if you don't mind going controversial, use Yandex. I have been a happy Yandex disk user for many years. For various historical reasons I have 350GB free storage with them, which I use as permanent cold storage for old data. I also use Yandex mail for a 1 to 1 backup of my entire Gmail (Yandex mail is free and unlimited) No complaints. You will not get 500GB for free, but you will currently get 1TB for $1.21 per month (if you pay yearly). Check it out, or just use B2.

>You were using a Namecheap website hosting plan for that? Kek.

In my defense not only there was no storage cap but i was never informed for over a year that i shouldnt do that so i just kept uploading crap thinking "Wow, thats super handy!" I'll see into these and think about it. On the topic of hosting in general, is getting a VPS worth it if there's a tight budget? I do considering upgrading to a VPS plan for both my website but also be able to host vidya servers, pic related the a middleground of price and specs, thoughts?

>>96111365
For VPS I have used (and am using) Digital Ocean, Vultr, and Hetzer. OVH would be another potential candidate, but I don't trust French people personally. Check them all out. Vultr is the cheapest starting at $2.50 but you only get an IPv6 connection. IPv4 needs another $1 per ip address. In future I may also try out Yandex Compute. Seems like the cheapest VPS with them is under $2 per month.

For just a static website, you don't need to pay anything if you use Netlify. I've stuck loads of small websites with them over the years. There are others. Just DuckDuckGo it. You only need a VPS if you want dynamic shit like PHP or use a database.

>>96111484
It's spelled *hetzner* of course, and the cheapest VPS with them you can only get in their German or Finnish data center

>>96111365
Alternative to my suggestions above, check out low end box https://lowendbox.com/ for cheapo shit VPS wise. Be warned though, this is bottom of the barrel territory, with mostly KVM solutions (VMs share the host kernel, so you can't drop in your own dedicated OS, and most suppliers there oversell their offering, so you'll be sharing resources with 100s of others wondering why it's all so slow)

Does end of life/support somehow makes gpu run worse than they used to? Haven't played vidya in a while and decided to play some games that I used to play (on the same machine) about 10 years ago but they run so poorly that they're absolutely unplayable. Drivers, Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes, .NET Desktop Runtime and XNA Framework are up to date. DirectPlay is enabled. Never ever had an issue with any component. The only thing that changed is that I can't install geforce experience due to the gpu not being supported anymore. But that shouldn't make a difference since it's mostly for being notified of driver updates and I've got the latest supported by my gpu already.

I enjoy how many people are nostalgic for the late 80s to the 2000s, I was born in the 90s and while I don't understand why people who were born in the 2000s or later have this weird cultural nostalgia about it like I do about the 20s to 50s but I appreciate some of the art that has come out of it. I also really appreciate that Haruhi poster as well as the old pepsi cans, the old beige computer towers, and the CRT screen. Nostalgia is one hell of a drug.

Help what if i need twisted or straight utp cables between these
I have a huawei HG8247H ONT. It is a wifi router with 4 lan ports an a fiberoptic wan port. The connection towards the isp on the wan port is ppoe. This huawei router has 2 operating modes. Router mode (acting as a wifi router) and bridge mode (whatever on the wan port gonna be forwarded to the lan1 port and whatever on the lan1 port gonna be forwarded to the wan port without making any ppoe connection). I have an asus RT-AC66U B1 router.
I will put the huawei router to bridge mode and connect my asus router wan port to thr huawei router lan1 port. Then i connect my pc's lan port to the asus router lan1 port.
So straight or cross utp between huawei and asus routers. Straight or cross utp between asus router and my pc.
I tried to google online but it is not evident which to use, between router and router i should use cross, but the lan side of a router is a switch so i should use straight??? Similar issue with my pc end of side. Between router and pc it should be cross, but the lan side of a router is a switch so it should be cross??

it basically is, a somewhat boring and offputting color, but if your worried about anything else giving you too much dopamine then beige and grey (gray) is the way to go. People tend to be more distractable and off task in white, black, and brighter color rooms, so it has its uses. I have ADHD so all the walls in my house are gray or beige to prevent me from retarding out. Even if its only effecting 0.01% of my behavior I need all the help I can get.
