Will USB sticks used for Windows work on other OS?

My Controller (king kong 3 max) has horrendous delay on arch when I plug the receiver directly into the pc.

But if I plug it into a dongle connected to the pc it works fine.

Why?

>>101158890
Wdym? Depends on the file system. Just use exfat.

>>101158929
What's that?

>>101158969
Ok, let's go to the basics.

In windows when you right click > Properties on the USB drive you should see somewhere what kind of Filesystem the drive uses. It should be NTFS, FAT32 or exFAT. If it is FAT32 or EXFAT it should work an practically any device.

If it's NTFS there could be issues when using it with OS X or Linux.

If thats the case then you will need to right click > format and select exFAT or FAT32, depending on the size of the drive.

This will also delete anything on there.

>>101159097
Got it. Any disadvantages to having a bunch of USBs formatted like that?

>>101159627
Not at all. I'm pretty sure most of your drives should already be formatted in fat. But you never know what kinda funny idea windows might get.

>>101158929
Do you mean fat32? I think exfat requires some packages to work on most linux distros

>>101159732
No. If it is infected, reimage immediately.

>>101159852
Fat32 is trash, and has been trash since the 90s. NTFS will break on Linux. Windows can't read Ext4. Use ExFat.

>>101159852
really? I have a 256GB exfat flashdrive I use occasionally on my arch system, can't remember having set anything up for that.

The issue is that windows just picks either exfat or fat32 depending on the size of the drive. And formatting it with the other one is a huge hassle without third party programs on windows. Would have been annoying to send anon to the powershell or telling him to install guiformat.

I need a special USB that can take a lot of RW abuse.
My use case: I am a linux user who occasionally needs to use a few windows software that needs to run bare metal(No Wine or VM). I hate windows though and don't use it for anything else. So I really don't want to taint my comfy setup with dual boot. I can use rufus to force windows to install on a portable usb, which is what I did months ago. It was a generic sandisk USB 3. After around a year of use it slowed down to crawl. Straight up single megabyte per second write speeds, the reads aren't much better neither. It technically still works but it is practically unusable. It didn't fare well against heavy rw demands of an operating system compared to usual use cases of flash sticks.
So I need a faster usb that won't degrade quickly, my fastest port is USB3.2, as such I am looking for a USB 3.1/3.2 flash stick. My drive used to get hot so perhaps something with above average cooling might help, are there any sticks with better passive cooling? Or again, anything that would last my use case for years.

Now with youtube's stable volume nonsense, the audio files are a complete mess, and it has become hard to get an unedited audio from youtube.

using yt-dlp and this gui, and I don't know how these options work in command line yt-dlp. For some videos, the opus option doesn't appear, but you get opus files by choosing "Unknow mp4", however, you can get multiple 128k opus files that are slightly different. In one case I was able to determine one file having reduced dynamic range comparing the waveforms in audacity.

In other two files I can't spot a difference but there is a very weird pattern in the higher frequencies, which when listened at 0.5 rate appears to be additional sparkle, these patterns are not found in the aac file. Is youtube doing this to "improve" the audio or is this part of some newer opus codec?

>>101165608
Daily linux user but I have a single monitor. Still a few starting points: Is the GPU AMD or Nvidia? If Nvidia use the proprietary driver(closed source and dkms version). Maybe a Nouveau bug of some sort. It has some.
>unusably laggy
Maybe a VRR bug? You are using displayport cable right? Linux likes DP cable a lot more than hdmi. Can you also try disabling vrr in the display settings and see if it stops the lag? That would help us narrow down the problem.

>>101164206

>>101166292
Low chance of success but maybe "screen tearing: allow in fullscreen windows" might help with the lag. Not something you should do, but it will narrow the problem down.
Also try asking the /fglt/ - Friendly GNU/Linux Thread if you don't find a solution here.
Lastly I know the writing is messy but I am typing as they come to my mind, it's possible that there is some sort of conflict between configs of previous Gnome DE and KDE that fucks your system. If you have a separate partition for your personal data, or a backup it might help to install kde debian from scratch.

Also once they are done, try resetting BIOS to defaults, and then try reinstalling your utilities, then if all else fails, then you try reinstalling Windows.
If that doesn't work, then you probably have a motherboard fault.

For clarification, the issue of my second monitor not working only happens using X11, which is what I normally use. Using Wayland, My second monitor works fine, but then the DE is extremely laggy.
I am using an AMD GPU but not using displayport cables as I have none, only HDMIs. Also my monitor that is not working is plugged into the motherboard as my GPU has 1 HDMI and 3 displayports. Swapping these monitors around does indeed swap which monitor is black.
There is no option in my display settings for vrr.
My monitors only have HDMI ports, so I could order some HDMI to DP cables and see if those work, though I don't see why this would be necessary if my monitors work just find using HDMI with gnome and KDE on Wayland.

The problem is C and Java are incredibly popular so I'd have to compete with a lot of people, which is an acute issue due to me 1. Not having a compsci degree and 2. Minimal job experience.

RPG is actually used within the banking industry alongside COBOL, so that might actually be a pretty good language to learn as well, if you'd rather stick to the civilian sector where you don't need to pass such an immense a clearance check.

Hello, this is a question probably too dumb even for this thread, but I have no one else to ask. if I buy a monitor with for example 144 Hz, do they offer an option to run at lower frequency, like 120 or 60? Is there any drawback or danger in doing this, like will it fuck up the quality or something?

>>101168713
Yes, the monitor will usually be able to be set to a lower refresh rate. No, it will do no harm - in fact, it may a save a pinch of energy in the process. If that matters to you.

At that point I'd be better off buying books on the subject and teaching myself, which was really my intention from the start.

Thanks a lot for the fast answer, anon.

I need to change something in the registry entry of a game, but I don't know what, is it safe to just fumble with it to see what changes in-game till I find out the part I'm looking for? I'd make a backup first of course.
Just want to know if there's a risk it'll kill my pc.
It's a simple tetris-like game and all information like how many bricks you placed, how long you played, and many other stats that don't affect gameplay are stored in a registry entry.
I don't know if anyone cares, but no, I'm not trying to cheat, my friend lost his save with over a thousand hours and we're trying to figure out how to put his stats back based on a screenshot of them.

Let's say, hypothetically, I made a catastrophic mistake at work.
Hypothetically, I am one of 4 junior developers with no senior developers in the company. I fucked up, broke one of our solutions, created several hundred thousand unnecessary records in our CRM solution and broke updates to the pre-existing records and it's been like that for 2 months.
I'm so hypothetically fired after I explain what happened. I can't hide this, we have commit history and everybody knows it's broken. In hindsight, it's obvious what I did.

Is it now impossible for me to get another job as a software engineer / developer? Obviously I can't use my current boss or colleagues as references, I can't get references or referrals from former professors.

I bought a big ass UPS for my PC
Is a UPS supposed to charge and discharge throughout the day even when the electronics connected to it are off?

I haven't used anything connected to it for a month as I've been away... But my family says that the power switches off randomly (specifically on the switch controlling the living room, my room, and the kitchen) when nothing else changes. e.g. Dads just watching TV with no one else around...

I'm suspecting it's the UPS drawing too much power when charging but idk how much sense that makes

That's going to depend on how strong the jammer is, what kind of people are around, what sensitive equipment is around.
If somebody knowledgeable notices this and reports it to the FCC with enough detail, they'll start monitoring that area and you will get caught.

just use a virtual machine. as long as you can pass through the drive at a block level you can run chkdsk from windows running in a VM (even just the preinstallation environment of the install dvd, don't need to even install it)
and by block level i mean like attaching /dev/disk1 or whatever macos uses, the method of which will depend on your VM software
actually, you could also boot the windows install dvd/usb directly since macs can do that, and run chkdsk from there. just hit shift+f10 on the first screen to bring up a cmd prompt where you can run chkdsk from

>>101171085
>Based. What Windows release do you recommend? Would I have to pay and/or deal with license bs?
just the newest one will have the most hardware support, if you want something smaller you might consider a stripped down iso like ntdev's, or even a PE-based boot disc such as hiren's bootcd

looks like it's possible to do in windows as well, using task scheduler to make a task that triggers using the kernel-power source and the ID for sleep
people are saying you also need to set the power plan to high performance before running openrgb, otherwise it may be interrupted by the sleep (ending up running it once you resume instead)

I'm making a high enough power flashlight out of a cheap 32b ARM MCU running at 48MHz.
Its just going to step up a 32650 LiFePO4 cell voltage from 3.2V to 12V.
I'm using a synchronous boost topology with discrete FETs (or async, no sure, depends on my mood). I know the boost ratio is terrible and i calculated that i at least need 7.78A of switch current with an inductor of 47uH if my switching frequency is 500KHz and want ripple below 100mA.
FETs are some pretty nice NexFET VSON package FETs from TI. 2.3mOhm.
The flashlight LED is a cob LED with a max current of 1.6A and power of 20W.

Sorry for the the long life story, but my question is what control topology should i use? Voltage feedback should be simple but I'm unsure if i want that or peak current mode or what. 48MHz should be fast enough i think, but I'm cautious because i haven't ever created any kind of high power converters before

Hello, /g/entlemen. I'd like to know if installing Windows 10 IoT LTSC on a laptop was a good idea. I can't use the touchpad nor WiFi connections and there's a bunch of drivers unrecognized in Device Manager.

In the dropdown, you need to select subject to only filter subjects.
Also, /hsg/ is the syntax for regex, so it's actually filtering for hsg on it's own. To filter for /hsg/ specifically you could do "/hsg/" (with the quotation marks) or in regex /\/hsg\// (the forward slashes need to be escaped in regex)

has there ever been a reason given as to why 4chan doesn't put the site's actual code on GitHub?
the development team, like the moderation team as a whole, is clearly understaffed and from an end-user perspective this site barely has more features than the open source code it was built off of 20 years ago, especially if you're not using javascript. wouldn't putting it on GitHub let others add their own changes and have things like 4chan-x be built in so the current devs can just focus on managing pull requests?

I'm having wireguard issues and I don't know how to solve them. I can do wireguard on my internal home network just fine, but when trying to do it with an EC2 server, it will suddenly never respond to pings nor incorporate the EC2 server into the wireguard device. I can use Netcat in UDP mode to listen on the Endpoint's port and receive packets, but never with Wireguard. Pinging that route doesn't give any error messages, just droped packets.

Any suggestions? It feels like I've tried this a dozen different ways, and none of them have worked.

I'm working on a Spring application that, every 2 minutes, polls for new entries in one database(since the last run) and then writes a couple columns to a reference table. For whatever reason I'm getting duplicate entries in that reference table despite using @Scheduled which I thought would make sure the enclosed requests would be finished before running again.

But I think I want to figure that out later. My actual question is whether I should just add a unique index to that reference table which will not allow inserts with matching values in BOTH columns, or add a select query to the front of the enclosed function which will then just not do the insert if a result comes back with that same data. It's less clean, but my theory is that a SELECT and sometimes insert will put less performance stress on the Postgres server overall than always inserting and potentially failing at the commit stage. Is that stupid?

>>101180035
*a row with a couple columns FOR EACH ENTRY, to the reference table

>>101180035
Now that I've said it all out loud, if I'm going with a bandaid then I'm thinking I should do the unique index unless someone says a handful of failed inserts will cause significant attrition. It'll at least still serve a purpose after I figure out the initial issue since I'm never, ever going to want entries on this table with both of those columns matching

personal projects should be something you enjoy doing as a cooldown/wind down to the day, otherwise it's just mor work that you should have someone pay you to do

>>101181404
all of them spy on you if you have a network connection enabled

kindle paperwhite or oasis hardware+interface+reading experience is still the best for now, just buy one, never turn wireless on, and use Calibre to manage your library

I'm trying to use this
>https://github.com/tonywu7/feedly-link-aggregator
to scrape shit from a dead Tumblr, but it's kinda fucked.
The download linked in the quick usage section, which was supposed to have a .zip with a start.bat, just leads to a 'Not found' page.
So I downloaded it with git instead, but whenever I try to use any commands I get the error
>No module named scrapy
Am I doing something retarded? I'm using git bash inside the downloaded folder, there's a scrapy.cfg right there, and there's a cyan-coloured (master) at the end of the path on the git window.

>ISP fucks something up.
>Call them, and they unfuck it.
>Fiber "modem" is in bridge mode so I don't have doubleNAT.
>NAT type is now stating "open" instead of "moderate".

is this safe?

This happened like 1 time, but am I imagining things or can that actually happen?

it's called a memory leak, and yeah, it's pretty common with poorly optimized vidya

AV1 and Opus will get you way smaller file sizes without sacrificing quality.

>>101181662
use gallery-dl, niggaridoo

>>101181684
Should probably connect a router to the modem so you have a firewall, and then port forward the ports you need for your devices after setting up static IP addresses.

>>101181690
I've had the same for programs and games but I don't play Helldivers 2. Retards will be quick to blame this on a "memory leak", but I monitor my resources religiously. It has only been a memory leak once out of some dozens of times.

Is it supposed to be able to download blogs that were destroyed by the purge? Because when I try to use it I get

The one I was trying to use uses some 3rd party thing that has the direct links to the actual images, so it was supposed to still be able to download them even if the posts are gone.

I've owned every other generation of kindle since the first keyboard model, and imo paperwhite is as close to perfect as it gets without having physical page turn buttons

the screen detail and frontlighting is noticeably better compared to the basic model, I highly recommend dropping the extra few bucks on paperwhite, and it's still quite compact

if you buy an ad-supported (cheap) model you will see random ads on the lockscreen, but if you never take the device online those ads will never rotate/change nor will you get bugged to update or anything like that

I know there are ways to nuke the ads, but I use the thing enough that I have always just bought the unpozzed version

>>101182351
look up reviews not on amazon
there are typically a couple of options with decent quality that are still substantially cheaper than OEM

Is it possible to assign an incorrect update to a driver on Windows? E.g.: Applying an update to an unidentified PCI Serial Port device and sending it under the 'Firmware' category. I need to update drivers manually, so I'm worried I might mess things up.

See if you can get a better chink one from ifixit or something, something with a warranty and reviews/tested cells.

How do you figure your ISP NATs you too? 100.x.x.x?

Says nothing to me. You either have NAT or don't.

Plus the controller thingy that measures voltages in between the cells. Unless we're talking something super cheaply made.

I'm a noob, some games will tell you if you're nat is fucked.

There's 3 nat types.

Why won't kurobaEx or kurobaEx-beta open any links? I've made sure all the settings are correct and 100x checked. I haven't tried other 4ch apps but other apps open links just fine. Im on andriod 14 with a S24 Ultra

Oh jesus.
On any regular home network with a "home router" you are always NATed unless you very, very specifically removed the feature. Picture relates heavily.

I download a lot of videos (mostly youtube) and am running out of space. I'm poor and don't want to keep all my eggs in one basket. Should I start getting a bunch of 64 GB SD/micro SD cards and saving shit on that? ...suggestions?

>>101183729
just look at the posted image anon, it's not a difficult concept

>>101183741
microsd/sd cards are dogshit, especially the cheap ones

spinning rust is dirt cheap and plenty reliable for bulk storage, buy a USB dock for like $20 and a 4tb HDD on sale somehere for like $75 and you're set for multiple years worth of content

>>101183743
so it's common to use this anime cut for testing re-encoding softwares?

>>101183741
If it needs to be portible, then maybe some sata ssds with a usb3 converter. I find HDDs too slow even for data storage.
Also, if you had backups, it wouldn't matter much if one of the drives failed

>>101183655
Alright I found that out that if I can see the thumbnails I can change the links to get the original pics without even needing to reverse search.
Now the problems are that a good chunk of the thumbnails are also broken and don't even show up on the Sources tab of Chrome's console, and that I can't scroll down the Tumblr archive page on the Wayback Machine to see older posts.

if I put a 2nd wireless card in my computer, can I be connected to 2 wifis simultaneously? I am using fedora.
Asking because I keep my PC downstairs (too hot and not enough space in my room) to stream steamlink to my laptop, and my cell hotspot as internet connection because my internet fucking sucks (see pic-rel). I was thinking I could hopefully stream via local connection (perfect <1ms for local) and use my cell for the internet

>>101184896
figured it out. yes it does let you connect to one wifi per network card and there is an option to configure wifi to be only for local resources

do you have the link?

>>101184896
yep, you can even connect to two with one card if your wifi card can do 2.4GHz and 5GHz, since they're technically two different radios. i've done what you're describing by setting up the 5GHz radio as a client to connect to a phone hotspot, and the 2.4GHz radio as an AP so i can use a hotspot as a manual "failover" internet connection

Question about C++ in visual studio. If you have 3 static libraries where A depends on B (i.e. "Additional include directories" includes B's headers) and B depends on C, and you subsequently #include a header file from project C into a header file (not source file) that's in project B, is there any automatic way to have knowledge of this dependency flow transitively down to A, which now is attempting to include headers from C? I know cmake/conan will do this, but I'm wondering if there's a way to do it where the dependency information is intrinsic to project B's vcxproj file.
I'm in a situation where our repo has multiple solution files which access the same sets of projects, so even if somebody modifies solution Z manually so that A knows about C, the developer working with solution Y logs in the next day and finds his shit is broken with a compiler error about how FooB.h can't find FooC.h, which makes it extra hard for him to fix if he's unable to spot that the "cause" of this is actually FooA.h including FooB.h and the fix is to add include directories to the (unmentioned) project A.
As far as I'm aware the answer is no, there's no way without an expensive migration to use better tools, and you don't want dependencies automatically transitive because it's inefficient, but I can't off the top of my head think of a reason you shouldn't be able to (fairly) easily detect these transitive dependencies by inspecting what's trying to include what - maybe not watertight enough to do it automatically but at least enough to offer suggestions that are right 99% of the time

Today I got a nightmare and it was about my PC having Windows 11 installed.

The old ethernet cable is giving out. Replacing it would involve drilling holes through walls removing parts of the walls. And drilling through floors. It would be too tedious so I decided to do wireless. I need either a WiFi card that is going to work flawlessly on Linux mint or a WiFi router that I could use to receive WiFi and convert it to ethernet. What should I do?

I just moved to a new rental and the previous tenant hasn't cancelled their internet contract, so it's blocking me from getting internet. Contact centre advised to use a VLAN to bypass this as a temporary measure, but I can't seem to find where to set it up in my router settings. Can basic consumer-grade routers set up a VLAN? Would it be buried in other settings (e.g. bridging)? Kind of clueless, and I wfh so need internet asap. Any advice would be helpful.

The touchscreen on my android phone stopped working and I'm wondering if there is a way to transfer the files to a computer without USB file sharing/debugging being on. I can still see the screen but I can't click anything and furthermore it seems to click random spots on it's own. It's a huawei p10 with android 8 or 9 i think.

I tried googling but all the data recovery programs for windows sound like indian scams. Is replacing the screen my only option here? I have no backups anywhere (i know im retarded), i only want to recover photos if possible.

Can I use telegram without sharing my phone book with it and notifying everyone on the contact list that I joined telegram?
I think the latter action is automatic? Never used telegram but my boomer relative wants me to make one for easier contacts and apparently when they joined tg people from their contact books started spamming things like welcome to tg and whatever. I don't want anyone to know that I'm using tg except for a few phone numbers.
