Trying to play an old game. Every time I boot up the game it runs but my graphics card(?) knocks me out of the game back to the desktop. The monitor flickers too. I can hear the game audio running but every time I click on the icon on the task bar it just fucking minimizes again. Cant find answers on google.

why isn't there a simple protocol that lets two computers transfer files directly over the internet?

that's not a standard protocol for direct connection between two computers it's a webapp running a glorified ftp server

most normies don't have upload speeds capable of real-time file transfer, let alone actually understand what upload speed means. a server in the middle is just way easier, and also means it can be asynchronous.

even with gig internet, the real-world throughput is usually 1/4 of your actual bandwidth. data centers have prioritized/dedicated routes.

>>101117390
>a server in the middle is just way easier
except it's not? because then you have to set up a server?

I understand that most use cases that's good but for individuals who just want to blast a file between them there's no reason they should be able to do it without a middle man managing it. Error correction could be built into that protocol obviously.

How do different file transfers handle big versus small files?
Default Windows explorer versus Ubuntu nautilus for example.
I'm trying to maximize file transfer speeds for a program that can handle any OS.

With WordPress, is there any way to layer images on top of images so that each can be toggled on and off? So for example, I upload a picture of a mountain range, and then above that I have a caption that says "mountain range", or have a picture of a person and on top have a word balloon saying "hello world!", and have the caption or word balloon have toggleable visibility with a button?

To clarify: I don't mean alt-text. It has to be a separate image layered on top, or at least have some kind of way to toggle them to show them on or off. I saw a comic sometime ago that had this so that characters and/or word balloons could be hidden to show the backgrounds, but I have no idea how it was done and it seems to be completely wiped from the internet with no archives available or ways to contact the creator.

Whether this is done with a plugin or if I'd have to do it myself from scratch with HTML or JavaScript or whatever doesn't matter, I just want to be pointed in the direction of a possible answer.

It's entirely possible, it's just not simple or cheap. Networking is a lot more complicated than it might seem on the surface.

There's a lot of simple options, but they're not cheap.

>>101117633
it's a stupid question but i do understand networking. it seems like FTP could be adapted/integrated for this use case.

that's just basic HTML+CSS, just set the background-image of a div then fill it with text or an image tag, to layer up image tags you can also use CSS absolute position to pin them down on top of each other.

is there something like a dashboard where values are scraped from pages without APIs?

>>101117814
You may be thinking of a HTTP / REST API, which is a little more simple in terms of APIs. Sometimes you still have to pass auth tokens though.

Although websites also have public APIs which are just empty HTML dashboards with just static text, which is really nice.

>>101118182
I guess it depends on the storefront, price is probably pretty trivial but stock might be hard/impossible.

A lot of websites are probably designed to be anti-scrape anyways though

I'm planning to replace my 4x2TB HDD setup with SATA SSDs, as the prices have dropped significantly and I want my PC to get quieter.

It's not true, and they list a variety of modems you can use on their website. I ended up getting a TP-Link model tc7650. It's just sitting in a box in the garage these days. (I just went outside and fished it out of the box for this post)

If you keep them clean, and out of humid environments, probably, but processors are using less wattage and producing better speeds these days, and the cycle suggests that will continue, so it's probably best to upgrade every four years or so.

It's not. It's mainly one of those zoomer things that starts off as a joke but then they all subconsciously start believing the joke to be real and getting mad at people because they're not taking it as seriously
>When exactly did that happen
Sometimes in the late 2010s when sites started catering more to the smart phone crowd
It became the default because it's just easier for most people to read in lower light conditions. It also works well to save battery life.
>Isn't it better for your eyes to look at black text on a white background
Results are mixed. A lot of places claim the opposite, that dark mode is better for eye strain and long hours stating at a screen. People also claim though that light mode can improve reading comprehension and speed.

Fire up any small HTTP server if it's just a couple of files to be served to the XP machine.

Generally you'd use the same IP addressing but without a gateway. Like give it 192.168.1.2/24 or whatever but leave it at that.

>>101125009
what? you put your card in and then fill to capacity

>>101122326

>>101125047
just going off the picture, it looks like a PoE injector, that is you have it near your non-PoE switch, connect the switch to the non-PoE port on the injector, now you have a PoE port to run to a PoE device

>>101111111

>>101124015
>>101125009
I really don't understand why people think that in the US we pay before filling.
Here's how it ACUTALLY works for the Eurotards.
1. You pull up to the pump
2. You insert your card
3. They check that your card is active by doing a temporary transaction. If no, stop here. This is common with more than just gas. The temporary transaction doesn't even appear on your statement after you've actually paid.
4. You pump your gas
5. AFTER YOU'VE PUMPED YOUR GAS, they charge you for the amount of gas you've taken.
You are not (permanently) charged prior to pumping the gas. If you would like, you have the OPTION to pay the cashier for a specific amount of gas before pumping.

>>101125375
and for the people who actually understand how credit card processing works... when you first insert your card they do an "authorize" for the full possible amount (say $175), which is more like a temporary deposit. then after you're finished they do a "capture" for the actual amount... this makes sure that it will only continue with actually pumping gas after it has reserved as much money as you could possibly spend, so the card will not decline. european credit cards CAN work the same way, it's just that the pumps over there might not process transactions in the same manner, but they could.

>>101125517
Yeah the pumps at Kroger gas stations still have the stickers on them from 2008 when things were going to shit and people were like "Shit nigger, gas is almost $5/gallon, but, I still gotta go to work...." and they would fill up their F950 diesels all the way and just fuck off with the credit card debt.....stickers say "We may charge an authorization of up to $150"

Has 4plebs been shitting itself for anyone else? It says there's no global search enabled even though I used global search yesterday/only returns one page of results/says I have to wait a certain time between searches

>>101125375
>>101125517
because as you described, you do technically pay before filling, it's just that you get effectively refunded the difference afterwards
it's kind of like collateral, to guarantee that you can afford something before you pay for it, you authorise an oversized payment first, then once the actual amount is determined, that amount is charged

Retard here that needs help
7600x, 32gb Corsair ram at 6000mhz, Sapphire Vega 56, Samsung 990 pro M2, Windows 10

I'm at quite a loss, a little while ago my PC got into the habit of failbooting into Windows. OS would load normally, my AV would load and I could do things normally for about 5 seconds before everything froze. I could not open new programs from any drive or files, however I could still open file explorer and see my files and folders just not open any.
At first a few reboots fixed this and I would just keep my PC on but after a while of this it wouldn't work anymore and I was forced to do a Windows reset, after that it always worked on the first boot after reset but usually not the 2nd so I got into the habit of resetting my windows every other week. Now today not even that worked and I went with reinstalling windows which went smooth until you reach the personalization part. A few times halfway through that bit it would crash, sometimes normally and sometimes my 2nd screen would go off as well as my mouse and it would just be frozen. I finally got it working after a few tries and for once got a bluescreen with a usable error "inaccessible_boot_drive" and after another reinstall I am now finally able to use my computer like normal until either shortly or longly shit goes rogue again.

So, is my M2 fucked, is it my GPU or is there something else?

>>101126408
I don't see how the GPU is part of this at all.
First glance it seems to be the hard drive, as you suspected already. Could be that it goes into read only mode or enough of the file table was cached so you could see files, but not access them. the OS is running in RAM at that moment.
inaccessible boot drive clearly points to the drive or something on the way there. try reseating it, but could just be the drive giving up the ghost

>>101126408
>>101126433
you could also confirm by booting a live linux from a usb/dvd and running some diagnostics on the drive.
which of course would also be a good opportunity to evacuate any important files you can still access before the drive fails for good.

How is passkey safer than password + TOTP?

If someone has remote access to your computer via malware couldn't they just steal your passkey PIN/biometrics and that's it? With 2fa they'd at least need to hack two separate devices or hijack the session while you're still logged in.

I want to try using my phone instead of a yubikey or other hardware. Is that possible? Everything I'm seeing is passkey apps for logging in on your phone, not using your phone to login on desktop.

I want to use an android app that uses

as drm. Obviously I haven't bought it, and even if I had, I have the Play Store and Play Services uninstalled. Because of that, when trying to launch the app, I get an error message and the following is logged to logcat:

W ActivityManager: Unable to start service Intent { act=com.android.vending.licensing.ILicensingService pkg=com.android.vending } U=0: not found[/code
What is stopping me from compiling the Play Store from source, but changing this function: https://github.com/google/play-licensing/blob/ac02e222a7c2842158103484fbd7fd2a440c364e/lvl_library/src/main/java/com/google/android/vending/licensing/LicenseChecker.java#L140

The same way as with vanilla 4chan, the style box at the bottom-right of the webpage. In advanced, you can add custom css too.

What are the security implications of having DRM support enabled in your browser? Or is it just a matter of principles that make people toggle off that option?

>>101131017
Sometimes JSON parsing shits the bed. That or 4chan's CDN. Do an F5 instead of refreshing through 4chanX when this happens. Also you should switch to 4chanx-ts as the main repo is stale and all focus is being shifted toward the typescript rewrite

>My son was interested and i guess it's a good way of introducing him to programming.
I hope this won't backfire. Not every kid who likes minecraft will necessarily do the leap required in order to get into programming. Is the kid interested in redstone circuits and command block scripting? You can do lot of pseudo programming simply with in-game mechanics like learning logical gates or devising scoreboards for minigames. Gauge your kid's interest by seeing how he tackles those problems and more importantly if he's having fun doing so or otherwise you'll just end up forcing something he doesn't care about

Thank you kind anon.

Actual stupid question time, because I feel like I've messed up.
/g/, I have everything installed in my HDD. Recently I got a SSD, put it in, and installed Linux on it. Now the system boots from that SSD.
How do I boot the HDD again? Like, it has a bunch of file shortcuts on its desktop. How do I open specifically the desktop for that HDD while I'm running the OS on my SSD?

>>101134903
Are you saying you have windows on your hdd or just that it contains files?

>>101134903
Swap boot priorities in the bios

>>101135018
Its Linux Manjaro on both of them.
The HDD still contains stuff I want to use, mostly games which take a while to download.

>>101135093
I'm already booting from the SSD, though.

tourist from /fit/ here
i have following problem/question:
i got a new laptop with 2x m.2 ssd´s
i have win10 on one ssd and want to
format and install ubuntu on the second
one. i used to have ubuntu alongside win7 or 8
via dual boot a while back and i remember i had to use some program to get a "choose from which drive you want to boot" screen when powering the machine on. will i have to searh
for that or a similar program again or does the bios nowadays
give me that startscreen by itself without doing anything?

>>101134903
Just mount the partitions from your HDD and access them like that.
Check lsblk for a list of block devices.

>>101135184
You might need to boot into it and copy the files separately. May be easier like that
Or like >>101135288 said

how to set up OpenVPN where only One Website is using it ??

What do you do when you can't find a book on libgen?

This truly was a stupid question, nevermind.
(I installed Linux on the SSD while the HDD was disconnected so it didn't show up on the Grub boot menu, I changed it around and now it does)

WD drives are good right, and Segate is crap (in terms of longevity, I don't give a shit about anything else except that it's gonna last a long time)?

Do nvidia/amd gpus work only on x86 or also for other architectures?

i was playing a game and my computerm onitor shut off and my computer fans went to 100%. i left it for 10 seconds to see what it would do but then i turned the power off and restarted it. i have windows, is there a way to see logs of what happened? ive never had a crash lke this before

>>101135950
Probably overheated

>>101136034
what could be over heating though? the fans were at like 20%. if it was overheating wouldnt the fans try to go up to 80%~ before shutting off the computer?

>>101135950
Event manager

>>101135187
I don't think your BIOS/UEFI will help you here. It may, but in all likelihood, you'll probably need to dual-boot again.
The program you used in the past is most likely some derivative of the GRand Unified Bootloader(GRUB.)

>>101135879
In theory, they work with literally any other architecture, so long as the board has a compatible PCIe 4.0 slot.
In practice, only x86 systems have a PCIe 4.0 slot, and even if they weren't the only ones, new drivers would have to be written for the other architectures because they do not exist currently.

>>101135950
Sounds like a GPU crash honestly... Usually they recover after 5 seconds though.
As anon suggested, use the event manager.

>>101136034
>>101136238

Why is it that my Asus RT-AC68U router is only getting 210Mbps when the modem is outputting over 900Mbps? The technician just came out and checked out our connection and was stumped. Suggested I get a new router. I've only had this one a few years. Google suggests it's over ten years old though.

recently with Firefox every 4chan board I get long webm loading times and "Video playback aborted due to a network error" or "the vidseo is not supported or something MIME" when trying to load in webms and sometimes it just won't open pictures. This stops and everything works for a couple of minutes and then it goes back to the same shit. Is anyone having the same problems, did something went to shit with Firefox, can it be fixed?

>How is passkey safer than password + TOTP?
If you have strong and unique passwords, then realistically it really isn't much different. Passkeys are ideal for enterprises because users are fucking retarded and will all but write their password on the wall of a truck stop bathroom. So replace the password with something much harder to duplicate. A lot of enterprises are making the switch to passwordless.

>couldn't they just steal your passkey PIN/biometrics and that's it?
Passkey shouldn't be stored on a windows computer for obvious reasons. Modern phones are fine because they are much more secure out of the box. Or a hardware key like a Yubikey and secured with a PIN.

>With 2fa they'd at least need to hack two separate devices
Passkeys are considered "unhackable". It's not the key they would hack, it's your session token. There should still be a second factor anyways, like a PIN or biometric anyways.

If you're an average Joe, your biggest concern will be losing access to your passkey. We don't have a helpdesk we can call to reset it for us. Tread lightly. I can't state that any more seriously.

>>101128404
>Is there some sort of passkey app on android you can use to sign in on desktop?
Windows Hello if you're signed into your microsoft account.

>I want to try using my phone instead of a yubikey or other hardware.
Microsoft Authenticator, but I've never tested it with a personal account. Only in enterprise environments.

I'd recommend getting two Yubikeys and a cloud password manager. You can get the cheaper yubikey that only have FIDO2. https://www.yubico.com/product/security-key-series/security-key-nfc-by-yubico-black/. Use the Yubikeys to secure your password manager. Print out recovery codes and store them. Give your password to someone you trust. Don't bother using passkeys for anything else, it's just overkill.

>>101144966
Because you have numbers on top row of keyboard?

>>101145102
I don't even play games. Having a trackball where the numpad goes is peak comfy.

>>101145103
the top row of numbers sucks for entering long numbers often

>>101145198
alternate theory: you sucks at touch typing

>>101145103
But thats so uncomfortable to enter them compared to numpad. Probably cuz im too used to it.

How do you make a burner alt instagram account?

those meta niggers keep banning me. is it because I don't give them a phone number?

woke my windows 10 desktop up from sleep to a distorted bsod. it was like 4 bsod screens on one monitor with a pixelated bottom. didn't see a specific error code. did a hard reset. event viewer says minidump couldn't be created.

If I want to hook up my PC to a UPS, how the fuck do I know what the actual power needs of the PC are? Let's say the PC's PSU is 80+ Gold rated 750W. The 750W there is the power it can supply to the PC itself, right? If so, wouldn't the power it draws from the wall (or, hypothetically, the UPS that I haven't bought) be more than 750W?
I tried researching this but only found shit about calculating the PSU wattage needed by other PC components, not about what a PC with a given PSU would require of a UPS.
Maybe one of the reasons this is a stupid question is that my PC will not actually be drawing the maximum amount of power most of the time, but I don't know how to estimate how much power it would draw in typical conditions either.
Maybe I'll just say "fuck it" and buy a UPS that's only good enough to protect my NAS.

Right, but I wouldn't be in the stupid questions thread if I could get the answer just from "they have a rating". I don't know what to do with these numbers if the 750 W is the max power supplied to the PC as opposed to the max power drawn from the outlet.

When I'm watching a youtube video, regardless if it's the actual domain or an alternative, at some point the video simply stops. My only recourse to make videos actually play is to open them in new tabs with a middle-mouse click and move the video past the point where it froze to continue watching, instead of watching them on the tab I'm currently using.

>24 inch - 1080p, 27 inch - 1440p
Why do most people give this guideline for buying desktop monitors, why is going from left to right considered direct upgrade? Even 24 inch is past diminishing returns, you can't clearly see all of it since the edges go into your peripheral vision, why get even bigger one? Why not 24 inch 1440p which would give you actually significant increase in pixel density as opposed to 27 inch 1440p which is just bigger numbers and price for marginally higher pixel density and even larger section of monitor pushed into peripheral vision?

Which software does /g/ use to design their UI?

>>101149447
The 'standard' for PC monitors is 92-100ppi at ~1m. Using Pythagoras' theorem, sqrt(1920^2+1080^2)/24~=92. I'm looking at a 24" screen at ~1m right now and it's nowhere near filling my fov. Things may be different if you need really close viewing distance b/c odd furniture arrangement or bad visual acuity.

Also I know this is crazy to say on g, but some people use monitors for work, and they quantify diminishing returns in terms of how much extra screen real estate improves productivity rather than how much vidya they can cram in one eyeball.

To my knowledge yes. But every time you plug in that unbranded $2 chink dongle it's a gamble.

If the hardware is very recent you may not have support. Or the support requires getting external drivers and that's a nightmare on Linux.

Ever since the copilot update, Windows performs pretty bad on lots of computers. I can barely get it to use less than 4GB of RAM. Might try googling how to disable copilot and see if that helps.

>>101149128
The people making those dongles don't make the drivers, they don't actually know what's going on. The little chip in there that actually processes everything is going to be made by a small number of companies and most of them universally offer drivers for Linux. Unironically 99.999% of the market works with Linux, so long as you're using a kernel made in the past few years then it already has drivers.

>have had UPS for a while, move it around every now and then
>moved back to my room yesterday
>it's now going in and out of battery mode for a few seconds at times
Could this be caused by the UPS' power cable being loose on the UPS side? When routing the cable around I tried for it to take up less space but in doing so it felt like I might have stretched it a bit/made the cable come off a tiny bit at the corner. I turned it off and checked, gave it a slight push to make sure and the cable seems firm but the behaviour is still there.
Also, regardless of the cause, will this occurring fuck my shit up or should I be fine? My PC didn't seem to suffer while it did that last night but it's still concerning.

Perhaps it's not wordy enough but making it less wordy:
My UPS is going in and out of battery mode, can a loose power cable cause this? Could this damage electronics?
Thanks.

>>101156444

There isn't.
Tumblr used to offer a page that did exactly that, but it stopped working sometime in June 2019.
The best you can do is images.google.com, with that camera icon, and look for exact size matches. In this case, that image was probably posted here.

Yeah, I can see why the hell you're having trouble.
Exact Search used to allow you to do all sorts of things, like narrowing dates and even sites, and now it doesn't. I hate how every redesign Alphabet Inc. seems to do results in an objectively inferior product with less functionality than before.

No. A handful of archived pages from that system probably do exist, but it's a backend system and archive.org doesn't save the server, just the webpage that the server sends back.
