when I run this the Python script itself seems to work, but the ffmpeg process is unable to access any files, is it because I'm using Windows or am I doing something stupid? if i directly copy/paste the command it generates it works fine.

pass2 = f'{ffmpeg} -y -hide_banner -i "{infile.absolute()}" -pass 2 -threads 2 -qmin 0 -qmax 50 -crf 10 -speed 0 -c:v libvpx-vp9 -b:v {bitrate}M -f webm {sound_cmd} -sn {outfile}'
convcmd = f"{pass1};{pass2}"

async def main():
    print("\n", convcmd, "\n")
    fm_proc = await asyncio.create_subprocess_shell(convcmd, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)
    async for line in fm_proc.stderr:
        await asyncio.sleep(0)
        print(line.decode(), end="")

the error:

One of my HDD's make a short squeaking noise sometimes when I close the case door too hard or open a drive cage "door" (it just keeps the drawer in place) or even just move the case a bit. I've been noticing it for a while, but it's very rare, and I'm seeing no SMART errors.

I've been looking everywhere online and nothing has helped so far so here goes; I got a new gpu for my PC (4070ti super) for my x570s msi mobo and the installation went fine, it booted to desktop but a few seconds later the screens went black and I heard a windows disconnect noise, upon restarting there was no boot screen and there was a white light on the vga ezy debug board. I've tried everything I can think of to troubleshoot it, removing all old graphic drivers, reseating all cables, replacing the psu, updating the bios, reseating ram. It's driving me insane that this could be either the mobo is on its way out or I bought a dud gpu. Is there anything I can do other than returning the gpu or getting a new motherboard?

What are the issues of using a NAS hard drive as a regular desktop PC drive? Something about error checking?

>>102772870
None. NAS drives are typically higher quality than regular "desktop hard drives".

I guess if you need a reason to avoid it, they can be louder sometimes (the RPM should be listed somewhere) but the inverse is also true too sometimes (they can be more efficient and run at lower RPMs. I have some WD Red drives that run at 5000 RPM instead of some of the more louder 7200 RPM drives you can find)

I've been having strange issues with my GPU, Windows boots but after 10 seconds of being on desktop everything freezes except for file explorer where I can't open anything
I've ruled out that its a ram or disk issue already so I decided to take out the GPU and use my internal one to see what happens
Everything works fine, so I tried to plug in my previous GPU an R9 285 and it worked. Then I installed drivers for it and I ran into the exact same issue the next boot with the subtle change that my motherboard's GPU light was on. So I removed it again and went back to internal, I ran ddu and then plugged in my Vega again. It booted fine and now works again. The only way I got it working previously was either to reset or reinstall Windows itself.

Does anyone have any idea what the fuck is going on with my GPU? Is it literally just driver issues?

I have 2 questions.

2] Why does my computer wake up instantly after I put it on sleep mode?

Thanks.

>>102773628
motherboard speaker, internal PC speaker, 4-pin PC speaker, any combo of those

>>102777499
Consider telling Windows that you have a metered internet connection. This will slow down some of the obnoxious update behavior. It might pester you still but it won't force you or even download anything until you're ready.

>>102777499
the answer to both is because Microsoft blows dick and is jewish as fuck, but

>Why do W10 still pester/force me to update them even after I've supposedly turned updates off?
Because the current ethos is "ignore the user, push spyware and adware at all costs" you've gotta get into registry edits to actually disable that shit.

2] Why does my computer wake up instantly after I put it on sleep mode?
does it still happen even with the mouse and/or keyboard unplugged? First assumption is that something is sending an input that's waking it up immediately. Also check if you have wake over lan turned on, it's possible you're getting a network ping that's causing it to wake up.

A relative of mine wants to have a very simple website to present his business (no checkout, no shop, just presentation).

There is no reason to use anything other than tools like WIX or Squarespace for such a scenario right?

I accidentally uploaded a corrupted mp4 for a Youtube video, and was met with this. Unfortunately I also typed the description into it, which is quite long. The only option I have is to delete the video; there is no link to it and nothing on it is clickable, so I can't go to the edit page and grab the long description from there. There's an option to add to the description from the dashboard, but it also gives no links and basically just acts as a script. I tried viewing the source and going to it with inspect element, neither did anything. Is there anything I can do, or am I fucked and have to write out the entire thing again? Shit was over 4000 characters.

What's the best image upscaler available currently? (primarily for drawn stuff)

>>102779492
At 30°C outside the inside of the car can get to 70°C. So devices that already get hot while they run should probably not be run inside. Computers for example might get damaged if you leave them running.

But batteries usually can handle those temperatures, they are more sensitive to cold temperatures. If they aren't part of some device that is running and which gets hot, then it shouldn't be a problem. Especially if the battery is just stored inside and not producing power (and heat).

>>102779492
Depends on the battery chemistry, but some climates have been known for causing problems for dash cams with batteries.

>>102779492
Like the other mentioned, definitely depends on things like whether the device is running or turned off and the battery chemistry, but of course always a good idea if possible to make sure it's store somewhere out of direct sunlight to limit how much it heats up if possible. If you've got a trunk that's closed off from the cabin that will usually go a long way to keeping it cooler since there'd be no windows heating the interior from sunlight.

no, youre right. what i looked at spoke of residual data left behind when software is used to encrypt previously unencrypted data/devices. i thought that made the whole process not viable for ssds. i found what i was looking for now.

>after 10 seconds of being on desktop everything freezes except for file explorer where I can't open anything
does it eventually unfreeze or not? i mean, does it act as if it needs a few minutes to load up or does it freeze forever until you manually reboot?
if it eventually unfreezes, what i would do in that case on windows is create a boot trace and see what driver/process is taking up so much time to load, but that's somewhat advanced and autistic. in my case, there was an asus startup program that was holding everything else back until it loaded.
just in case, this is the guide i followed in the past when i needed it: https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/177443-gathering-startup-shutdown-sleep-hibernate-reboot-trace.html
other than that i don't know, sounds like a driver issue. it's pretty weird that a gpu makes everything freeze BUT windows explorer. maybe try booting in safe mode (either spam F8 during boot or run msconfig)

There's nothing fundamentally different between the two, you're just not using a wireless link anymore.

There's nothing fundamentally different about using a Wifi cable.

>>102781139
Not really, your router has DHCP enabled by default so it'll automatically assign you a local IP and you're pretty much good to go. You could setup a static IP and port forwarding, depending on your use-case, but that's really whatever.

But, I've noticed the TDP of the 7700x is much higher (105w compared with the 9600x's 65w). I don't want to spend any extra money on a beefy new cooler and I have a Cooler Master Hyper 212.
So basically I want to know if a 7700x is likely to throttle with a Hyper 212, and if so whether that would negate any potential performance benefit it would have over a 9600x.

Forgot some important information: In the source codee, the window class is in Windows/Classes.c, and the window created is in Windows/Main.c. The menu is stored in Resource//M_Main.c, and icon in Iconography.c.

>>102781887
But the TDP of the 7700x is higher, it will be using more power so doesn't that also mean it needs more cooling to keep it below that temperature

>>102781938
Maybe under a max load, but the software you specified is likely going to be using more GPU than CPU.

From a csv file containing:

Name, First, Second, Third
Sam, a, b, c
Tom, 1, 2, 3

It produces an image for each row of the csv file (excluding column names of course) - In my case, sam_lole.png and Tom_lole.png just listing First, Second and Third. You could do a similar thing in Python or a bash script, whatever is your liking. That's basically all the scripting you will need so time to learn how to use imagemagick :P

Should I be concerned that this is happening?

New to networking, trying to establish an ssh connection to my NAS. I have root access, but can't establish an ssh connection.

Assuming it runs Linux or Unix: you have to have an actual account to the system which you use with SSH. The web console thing is a nonsense fabrication.

Retard here, could someone explain to me how exactly the "suspend" thing works on linux? I'm currently using gnome on my desktop, and it has this thing that makes the screen "turn off" after a while, except when this happens my screen goes blue after a second, and a "hdmi signal not found" osd message appears for a bit, before the screen turns off then on again, now on the lock screen. Isn't it supposed to keep itself off? isn't that literally the point of the suspend feature? am I retarded or just missing something?

What exactly is the point of a HDD in newer PCs? What's the point of more storage if it's so slow that you go insane?

I keep seeing some PCs that have like 250GB SSD and then 1TB of HDD as well. Is that really better?

>>102785192
>>102785260
Over 400G so more than enough I guess. Is swap really that important? sometimes I would set it up when distro hopping, but never noticed any difference. I'm only asking this because gnome suspends itself by default, and while I understand the point of it, I rather have the screen always on, with just a clock screensaver after some idle time, just like other DE do (e.g. Cinnamon). Instead I have to use an extension for a similar behavior.

>>102785312
Suspend is basically hibernate, and hibernate relies on a page file, and swap is the basically the linux version of a page file.

If the downsides are enough of a problem, you can just buy more and put them into a (Z)RAID, giving you redundancy as a bonus
>>102785312
You will probably want to get rid of gnome, but for suspend you want enough swap for the amount of ram you have in use, for other uses 2-4gigs with less swap if you have more RAM is good enough

>>102785533
No output. Thanks anyway, my original question was more about understanding the behaviour of it, aside from this blank screen thing I don't see any important reason to set it up.
>>102785587
Yeah I know, I just wanted to give it a try, I hadn't used gnome in years, I'm surprised it's more stable now, even under wayland. I also tried kde when 6.0 came out and was quite buggy for me unfortunately.

The first two I think I can do on my own, but for the booru...I've found a DIY booru engine called szurubooru but the install recommendations say to use Docker. Problem is that the only way to get Docker would be to sign up for a VPS instead of cheap webhosting. Is there anyway to sort of..."extract" or otherwise take the Docker out of a Docker container so I can install it manually?

I'm looking for a tiny-ass bluetooth mouse I can throw in a backpack, but I'd still like it to have 5 buttons. Any recommendations?

>>102782586
only with headphones in? are you sure your hardware volume buttons are not fucked up, meaning they're not pressing themselves? also if i remember correctly the ring volume you set with headphones plugged in is different from the volume you set with headphones unplugged (it remembers the settings) but you can change that in the system settings. if none of this is relevant, i personally don't know what else it could be.

i'd say pretty low, especially if your server is not exposed to the internet. i think the only thing that can be stolen is the encrypted database, assuming someone has direct access to your server and has permissions to copy the vaultwarden files. but even then, it's encrypted and they wouldn't be able to much with it. take this with a grain of salt, but i think it's safer and more convenient to use a password manager than a paper sheet

>>102785029
i think because with vpn and tor you're sharing the same ip address with different people which have already used up all the free mails. to mailinator it does not matter if you change browser or device, all it matters is your ip. do you have to necessarily use disposable mails over a vpn? if not, you can also use websites other than mailinator when you reach the limit (tempmail or whatever, there are many sites like that)

I'm trying to learn the syntax of the c++ programming language instead of using the tutorials because I feel like they teach you what each "magic word" does but they don't teach the rest of the language.

But everytime I try to search for a complete list of the syntax of the language I only find unsorted messes, can anyone help me?

>>102795588
i dont want to put you off learning or trying to find a new way but before you invest in IT for a job you need to understand that
a: they are shedding people all over the place
b: when they do need someone they're either offshoring or hiring a cheap immigrant regardless of how fake their qualifications are
c: even if none of that is true in your area, with a basic qualification you're going to be lucky to get a foot in as a 1st line servicedesk lacky.
d: a career in IT is a career constantly updating to the latest thing - so unless you are really into it, you're going to hate it. and if you were REALLY into it...its likely you'd not have gone in to hvac and gone in to IT from the start.

whatever you do i wish you good luck, if you choose this course I pray you prove me wrong everyday...

>>102796098
learncpp.com? It's pretty good

>>102796276
I mean the syntax. For what I see there are:
1. Identifier: chosen word necessary to define something.
2. Keywords: reserved words of the language with already established meaning
3. Operators
4. Literals: the value itself, like a '40' or "word"
5. Separators: they sort the code.
6. Comments
7. Preprocessor directives.
What else am I missing?

I tried deleting all the xbox related folders in appdata but I keep getting the same problem. I tried wsreset, logging in an out of the store and clearing the store cache. Does anyone know if there's a way to fix this? The only other thing I can think of is maybe there was a folder I missed in appdata or there's a permissions issue.

No, SMB/Samba lets you mount shared folders and browse them as if they were normal folders on the device you're browsing them on. You can use the Android Samba client if you want, although testing it out it's probably not going to be as smooth as VLC.
Keep in mind this involves downloading the file and playing it, so it's way easier on your computer than having to set up Plex or Jellyfin and using a client app for those on your phone, but it may not be as stable or easy or whatever.

This is kinda why I want to see the standard, but in short it's one of the first thread profiles that were standardized. Imperial whitworth is still quite common, but it also came in metric with TPI. If you look here there are at least 7 https://www.gewinde-normen.de/en/whitworth-fine-thread-din-240.html
I'm specifically looking for W 30 x 1/14", which I see is used in some Italian standard plug thingy but nowhere is it defined what the dimensions are. I can assume the profile, but I want to know for sure if it's possible. Because the only others I see for W 30 have a TPI of 10 or 12.
I figured I'd ask here since maybe somebody knows a good site or server that hosts standards. If you happen to know a different standard that specifies this thread then I'm all ears, but I kinda doubt it.

Is there no way to set a standardized image embed size on rentry?

On the "how" tab, scrolling to the bottom, it tells you how to embed images. I've been looking at archived rentries for examples, and I've found that people often do something like this:

![Alt Tag](https://i.imgur.com/PYV4crq.png){100px:50%}

. But the problem with that is it only standardizes the width, which is something I don't even care to limit in my use case; if you reverse it like the following:

![Alt Tag](https://i.imgur.com/PYV4crq.png){50%:100px}

, the image is completely squished vertically; I don't understand it. I just want to make every embedded image have the same height, but I don't know how to do that besides manually calculating what the height would be for the specified width, because if I just put for example

![Alt Tag](https://i.imgur.com/PYV4crq.png){250px:200px}

, it stretches the image to fill out that specific aspect ratio. I am going to bed after submitting this post, so if anyone helps me, sorry if I am not here to thank you.

Seems like the width based autoscaling relies on height percentage not doing anything - this works too: {400px:%}.

To install the plugin, just get that json file and in media downloader, click add plugin and choose that json file you downloaded :)

You might also wanna add some gallery-dl options for rate limiting and sleeping so you don't get blocked:

How does pixel density work? Will games look as shitty on a 42" 4K monitor as on a 27" 1440p monitor, since they have almost the same ppi?

If you only want images then you can do: --filter "extension in ('jpg', 'png', 'gif', 'webp')"
and so on for whatever file extensions you want

Sounds like you already found it, use a DE.
Did you install the guest add ons/drivers?

The PPI is about the same for them so I guess. However, check if the subpixel layout is different - TVs often have different layouts from RGB so can look worse than monitors at the same resolution/PPI/whatever

Why do some power sources have a range of output voltages? How does it all work?

I want to be able to play my retro games with my computer monitors, I'd also like to be able to use my headphones connected to my computer while playing. As of right now, I have a composite switch hooked into a CRT - should I get some capture card and hook up a the composite to my computer? Any alternative works for me, as long as it's the best one, or close enough

The top one is constant current, the one of the bottom is adjustable (dimmable).

what happens when I do this?

mv /dev/null /dev/random

Cool, but what does it actually do? Better text visibility in the sun?
There is an Amazon's reader on the top of searches and it has built-in advertising for some reason. Cringe, the book reading app on my phone is at least free.
