I have never compiled a program before. What compiler/etc do I need to compile this for 64-bit Windows 7?
https://webpbn.com/pbnsolve.html
>Pbnsolve is written in C for Unix systems. It likes having the libxml2 (the Gnome XML parser library), but a crippled version can be built without it. Since that library is very portable, it is probably easy to port pbnsolve to things like Windows or MacOS X, but I have not done so and don't intend to.
The more lightweight the better. I'd prefer one small CLI compiler vs a bloated "coding environment" with a million tools I won't use, if I can help it.

The mac mini shilling is working on me and I’m going to buy one.
However, what do I do for a display if I want the whole Mac experience but don’t want to spend four figures on a new apple display?

Is there some older Mac display you can get cheap? What’s the market leader model in terms of value? The t480p of apple displays?

OAuth question because I'm schizo and hesitant about trying new things. How does it work, exactly? I've read that using it as a login method will automatically share the e-mail address from the linked account in some cases, but I've also been seeing newer websites want OAuth2 based logins, while not even presenting traditional e-mail signup as an option. (Suno.AI is an example, though they do seem to offer phone signup now, they didn't before.)
My question is, say you were to sign up for something using Google. If you were to revoke permissions for the OAuth from the Google/whatever service end of things later, does that typically delete the account/make it inaccessible, or would you be able to re-enter the info and relink the two accounts at a later date? Thanks in advance for any anons that can give an answer.

What kind of hardware do I need to run 1-2 VMs reasonably fast?
I want to go full linux, but still need Windows for games and such.
What's your recommendation?
I don't want desktop, either mini PC or laptop is preferred any suggestions?

>>103150688
Developer here.
OAuth is basically this:
>1. website or platform you are trying to sign in gives (you) a manifest, specifying their requirements to log you in
>2. you take that manifest to your identity provider (Google in your example)
>3. you sign in to your identity provider, and they take the manifest and give you back a "token" that conforms to the specifics of that manifest, but is cryptographically signed by the provider to prove it's valid
>4. you bring that token back to the website or platform
>5. the platform verifies the token, and if it checks out then the platform has whatever is contained in that token (based on the specifics of the manifest they provided)
"Whatever is contained in that token" is defined by the manifest, and it can have anything from "very little" to "a lot" in it. Like, the bare minimum is usually "a unique identifier", so that your website or platform only sees, "this is person 5d0ecf48-9008-4293-80a2-95b733203032" and not even your name or email address. But "a lot" could be "permission to access your Google account and manage your files and calendar, for an indefinite duration."
Usually during the log-in process with your identity provider, they tell you explicitly what they will be giving the website or platform in the token. Except, they use plain-language rather than an explicit enumeration of everything. "Read your profile" is a common example, in which case the identity provider is going to provide whatever the identity provider considers your "profile" (usually stuff like name, email address).
"Revoke permissions" relates to any ongoing access (e.g. managing your calendar/emails). But any information shared can't be "unshared" by the identity provider. You'd need to go through whatever channels the website or platform has for "right to delete account/information" if you want to clean that up.

That's about normal; Did you also clean the heatsink and fan? You'll notice less heat under a full load than you would have.

>>103150688
>>103151242
Ran out of space, but to deal with the very last question:
As I mentioned, any information shared can't be "unshared" by the identity provider. If the website or platform decides to keep your account data on file indefinitely, I don't see why you couldn't just change your mind and log right back in with a new token from the identity provider.
The website or platform may not even realize you revoked their access via the identity provider! If it's something like a calendar or email app, that tries to sync your data on a regular basis, then that sync would fail after you revoke permissions. But there could be any number of reasons that sync may have failed. Maybe your password was reset, and existing tokens were revoked for security? Maybe their own platform had a desync and the token has been replaced but the new one lost to the ether?
I think the only reason it could "break" is if you had a super privacy-conscious identity provider that let you change your own identifier or profile information. Like, if instead of Google giving the platform your "Google ID number", it gave every platform a random ID number for you, that only Google knows points to the same person on their own, internal system. And then you could theoretically revoke each platform's individual ID number permanently, breaking the connection to your Google account. This would be very, very outside the norm for the industry though!

If a graphics driver update and a bios update doesn't fix it, it may be your psu or gpu or monitor, or even the wall outlet. Kinda hard to say.
>>103151372
Because it's overpriced meme tech that serves to value outside of simulators.

>>103151371
Your screen is probably "losing connection" to the video feed it's receiving. Thus, the screen turns black (no video).
The "HDMI 2" is your screen letting you know which video input it is on. Depending on your screen, it could be telling you, "the screen is black, because we're on HDMI 2 input and there is no data," or it could be telling you, "we just switched our input to HDMI 2, because we detected data coming in."
"Losing connection" could be any kinda reason. Your monitor could have had its power interrupted for a second, and is going through a reboot process before it can reconnect to the video. Your monitor could be broken, and while the PC is trying to send data the monitor can't handle it or doesn't realize it's there. Your cable could be broken, and when it twists the wrong way the data gets cut off momentarily. Your GPU might be having hiccups and not sending data. The GPU could be working fine, but a problem elsewhere in the computer could be interfering with the job its doing.

Hello /g/entoomen. I seek your wisdom concerning books for a beginner programmer.

My end game: AI and/or robotics (from industrial to whatever) from a design standpoint (management or prototyper etc)

My experience: Currently studying Electrical Engineering Technology in College (hands on engineer I guess? Between an industrial electrician and full blown engineering). I've taken a few new robotics courses working with Ardunios. Gonna get PLC exp soon.

I'm decent at math, but something I'm working on to improve, slowly working through Spivak's Calculus. I have some previous experience coding, I find I have a good head for programming, comes relatively easy to me and I'm anal about organization and neatness in code. I like to get creative with solutions.

I have a few books in mind I also want to pick up:
Code Complete 2nd ED
Head First Design Patterns Into Design Patters: Elements of OOP
Algorithms Unlocked Into Introduction to Algorithms (Thomas H. Cormen)
Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software
Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs
Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code

Took these books from the highest rated/most recommended lists, are they memes? Worth my time?

I'm looking to start learning C, Python, Java and get into R, Lisp, C++ later on. I guess I'm asking you guys what are some solid books, in your opinion, that I can get to start learning the first 3 languages. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

Since you are approaching things from the electrical engineering starting point, I think you'd enjoy "Write Great Code" by Randall Hyde, No Starch Press. Particularly volume 1.
https://nostarch.com/writegreatcode1_2e
I actually disagree with the core premise of the book: that understanding the computer architecture and low-level programming implementation is key to writing great code (in anything other than the extremes of programming, that butt up against the hard limitations of the machine). I think great code is well organized and neat, rather than computationally optimized.
But it was an absolutely wonderful trip through the details of how computers work at the lowest levels. And that's going to be something acutely valuable to you, if you're going to work on robotics or embedded applications, where things like, "which micro-controller do I use?" or "how does this hardware transmit data?" are directly relevant questions.
It won't teach you to program in any specific language, but I think it will be a value-add to both the hardware work you do, and the programming work you do.
But definitely prioritize this appropriately in your learning plan, because, like it said, it won't teach you a programming language, and if you spend forever building the foundations of learning a programming language (compilers, hardware, layers of abstraction) you will never get around to actually writing anything.

What's the algorithm for breaking up a map into one or more districts that have roughly equal population while at the same time making sure that people in each district have something to do with each other (i.e. there is a shared community in each district)? Manually, not automatically. I don't understand what I even need to do, just randomly try different options in hopes that one day I'll get it right?

>>103152434
I don't know a name for that, specifically.
But I imagine you would take the naive algorithm (simply cutting in half repeatedly, based on equal population in each half), and add a layer of "community cohesion" that discourages placing the slice through those areas. Like, just a heat map of "avoid cutting this" zones. Maybe a density map? Maybe some kind of proxy like downtown-cores or commercial districts (tend to be centrally located and form communities nexuses)?
You'd need to play with the parameters though, since some conurbations absolutely do need to be subdivided, so it does need to override the guidelines at some level of strength.

>>103152511
I meant that the whole process is done manually by a human, zero automation

>>103152434
>>103152511
Oh, and I think another approach is to divide the map into atomic micro-districts (e.g. zip/postal codes, but could do by hand), and then the dividing algorithm simply decides how to aggregate the micro-districts into the actual groupings.

>>103152529
That's already done, the map is divided into small blocks with known population

>>103152434
>just randomly try different options in hopes that one day I'll get it right?
You mean like completely redo the process and see if you get better results? The better process would be to improve a "good" result iteratively.
Take pairs of adjacent, existing districts, look at the >>103152592 blocks along the border between the pair, and see if there is some pair of blocks that, if you swapped them, would "improve" the result (according to whatever methodology you have for deciding what "improve" means). Like, just straight up compare the score from "leave as-is" or "swap these two" and pick the option that scores better.

Never used washing machine in my life. What mode do I use? I think that "Cotton" is kind of considered the default one. But do I really need 3 hours and high temps? What difference would it make between that and "15 minutes" mode? I need opinions. I'm washing usual home wear, I'll be using detergent, and I don't care about stains, just want it to remove the worn clothes aka sweat smell and become somewhat hygienically clean.

>>103152717
Depends on how large the load is, and what options your machine has. For larger loads I like to use the prewash option to get the clothes damp before the primary wash, and I use cold water for everything, and an extra rinse so the detergent doesn't irritate the skin, with a medium spin cycle speed.

>>103152717
Safest is to use cold water, less washing time (but don't skimp on rinsing time), and less detergent.
The failure state from holding back is, "things aren't as clean as you hoped." So you wash them again.
The failure state from washing too hot is, "dye bleeds and stains everything," and "some delicate fabrics are damaged."
The failure state from washing too long is, "some delicate fabrics are damaged."
The failure state from too much detergent (or not enough rinsing) is, "your clothes are soapy after you take them out, and that soap stinks/irritates your skin when you wear them." So you throw them in for another wash or rinse cycle.

>>103152717
One tip is to use biological detergent and wash at low temperatures. I wash everything at 20c. Non-bio detergents are shit and require higher temperatures to wash effectively, which can result in damage to the fabric and shrinkage.

>>103152717
If it's a top-loader, it helps to let it fill with like an inch of water before adding the clothes. This will let the detergent dissolve more evenly in the water. If you throw your clothes in on top of the raw detergent, or even worse, pour your detergent right on top of the clothes, then the detergent gets trapped in the clothes rather than spreading over the entire load.
Front-loaders will spray water into your detergent before pouring it into the basin, so you don't have to worry about that stuff. But you might still want to water-down particularly thick detergents with warm or hot water before adding them.

Under the hood it is a proprietary version of Gentoo Linux with a lot of read only partitions you can't do anything with and an incomplete UEFI, but that's going to change soon with google rebuilding the whole thing on Android (so any information you find to fix software issues now is going to be irrelevant).

Well, you can divide by population fairly, since that can be computed by placing enough pins on a map and telling the computer to divide the map such that enough pins are in each resultant district and each district is roughly similar aspect ratios and isn't oblong, but if you try to factor in what the locals have in common that isn't party allegiance you'll be unable to make a right decision. No one could possibly consider everything and satisfy everyone and that's true even without the present infeasibility of getting demographics to stop seeing each other as competitors for power and influence over each other. Even factoring in party allegiance isnt exactly right, just something you're probably going to be asked to do so politicians can enjoy somewhat more stable employment.
So I think the only fair choice is to iteravly draw and redraw lines until all the pinpoints are enclosed with shapes that you've somehow constrained to have few protrusions and limit the length of and protrusion to be roughly less than 10% of it's length or width depending on how you define length or width.

Maybe, maybe not. And even if the scratch disrupted the burning in that area, the error correction may be able to fully correct the issue

What's the point of using a hashing method like sha256 when MD5 is less computationally intensive? Both pretty much surf the same function: verifying that the file you are looking at is indeed that same file and hasn't been altered in any way. So why do people bother using 256? Sha512 is a thing but hardly anyone uses it because it takes more resources and takes longer to calculate, right? What is stopping everyone from just deciding to use MD5 and calling it a day? At the end of the day they are all the digital equivalent of fingerprints so I don't see why using one of the other matters

Why is it nearly fucking impossible to find a $15-20 mouse (wireless or not) that has a DPI above 1,000?

My little brother tried playing Minecraft on his Xbox with an old office mouse and he had to move it almost a foot to get to the other side of the screen. I let him test my expensive one and apparently it's related to the DPI. There's not even a fucking menu to adjust the sensitivity in the game. I still need my mouse so I can't just give it to him.

What are some acceptable uses cases to use nixos

I've learned some JavaScript and obviously html/css. I've made clocks, calculators, countdown timers, memory games, pacmans, card games, etc and I have no fucking clue how to make something actually useful. It's like I don't even know JavaScript.

In C it seemed that there was a clear progression path to be able to make what I wanted, but JavaScript seems to have tons of arbitrary walls that block progression.

With the above knowledge, how do I progress from webpage Dom manipulation to making an actual project with like electron/qt/etc that actually does something useful? How do I break through the 'beginner' barrier?

It's almost like there is TOO MUCH information about JS on the internet and I'm being stonewalled because of my autistic inability to choose.

>How do I break through the 'beginner' barrier?
Huh? If you've made a card game like solitaire using just webdev shit, then you are long past the beginner barrier.
I guess the issue is now you are deciding you want to specialize, but aren't sure how to specialize. The answer is probably do the same kinds of projects you are already doing (even reuse the same code if you want) using the various, dominant ecosystems for webdev.
Like, if you made those simple as JS embedded in HTML files, then set up a server with Node.js and Express to host the files. See how that works.
Electron is its own thing too. Just redo your shit in Electron.
There's also React ecosystem, which will make your DOM manipulation more interesting.
At some point you should try TypeScript and see if you like that flavor. Not everyone does, but it pairs well with other stuff.
If you've only been doing local projects, you've probably not done any web requests stuff (fetch, AJAX, etc...). That's another major domain of webdev, and it's important for interconnectivity with other systems. But until you over systems you want to interconnect with, it's harder to explore (programming your own REST API, just to in turn practice making fetch requests, is daunting).

But, seriously, you are long past "beginner" and could probably go out and find an entry-level job (provided the employer isn't too anal about you having experience with their ecosystem).

In the murky days of the past, there were game CDs that arranged the data to have the game data in "track 1" of what was otherwise a regular audio CD you could pop into your CD player. You'd just skip track 1 and track 2 onwards would play the sound track.

But if it's a media press kit, perhaps they are using some idiosyncratic, production-level audio encoding that was dominant in your local woodlands but otherwise obscure and unheard of abroad?

Because WiFi 7 is still a draft standard and any hardware you buy now may be obsolete in 6 weeks. Read wiisfi.com to parse out WiFi marketing bullshit.

If you want to buy something right now I'd look at a gl-inet Flint 2. It has one 2.5G LAN port, and you can always buy a 2.5Gb switch later when they're cheap.

I actually am already using one as an access point for my room/wifi upstairs, that and the switch was my first idea but he's against it because "why getting a second device that slows down the rest when we can just get a router with more than 4 2.5g ports, especially if it costs just a bit more?"
It seems like he gave up on WiFi 7 though, so that's already a partial win. Now to find a router with at least 2 2.5g lan ports...

>>103163939
>why getting a second device that slows down the rest
Because that's not how switches work. The router only has a 2.5Gb link to its own LAN ports either way. Having a 2nd switch increases latency on the order of <0.1ms.

Internally most all routers are just a SoC with PCIe for a WiFi controller and 2 Ethernet PHYs. The first goes to the WAN port and the 2nd goes to a managed switch chip which provides the LAN ports. The only case where having all 2.5Gb LAN ports would matter is if you wanted to make VLANs which talk to each other at 2.5Gb, and that's going to be an ask for consumer router CPUs anyway.

When it is full I will then discharge it through charging a variety of things all the way down to flat. I will also note down the mAh and mWh when it discharges.

The power banks are 22,000 mAh on paper.

Disk damage. Could be data (think, unceramoniously starved of power) or physical damage.

Try: sudo mkefs -n /dev/sdb1

the -n tells it not to make a new filing system. After hitting 'y' it should scan the disk and return blocks that contain backups of the superblock.

sudo e2fsck -b [block number] /dev/sdb1

should then take that block and copy it over... hopefully restoring functionality.

Either download the executable from the github release or use a package manager (winget, choco, scoop, etc). If you're downloading it from github then you will need to add it to your PATH so you can access yt-dlp from any directory.

"winget install yt-dlp" is easiest though.

Discharge for a new one should be, on the low side, ~70% of the stated capacity if you figure Wh as Ah*3.7V.

It's an intentionally useless metric. If you really want to characterize the quality of a power bank, you have to test the batteries and charge converter separately. Most of them tank on efficiency at their max discharge rate.

>>103168127
It worked, thanks

>>103168325
thanks

well in that case isnt it better to test them as a package?
theyre not new, theyre 4 years old, used lightly
basically i just want to see how much juice i can still get out of them.
if they have degenerated, might as well move them on and get something faster.

so on paper theyre 22,000 mAh
(output max 5V 2.4A, but i think that's some gay apple protocol isn't it? i've never had any apple devices, for me they seem to only do 5V 2A max per port)
but that 22,000 is at 3.7V, right?
3.7/5 = 74%
so max theoretical 5V output is actually 0.74*22,000 = 16,280 mAh
and that's not counting the inefficiencies along the way right?
so out of the 16,280 mAh
i assume there's got to be some % penalty converting 3.7V to 5V, you don't just magically get that for free right?
then there's the inefficiency of driving that juice into the phone's battery. what's the % loss there?
any other costs along the way? is heat its own energy loss or is that associated with the above two?
i guess i'll find out when i run the discharge tests into my phone(s)

You seem to be a bit of an electrinerd. Would you trust a 140w USB charger from one of the larger AliExpress brands like Toocki? The 50% lower price compared to stuff on Amazon is tempting, but I don't want to fry my work laptop or burn down my building.

when the risk is that high, it's not worth it.
buy something sold in your country. that small saving is not worth the stress, the doubt. also think of it as a one-off insurance payment. if a chinkshit charger causes fire, you'll be on the hook, because im sure your home / personal liability insurance has in the fine print that you must not use electronic equipment not regulated/approved by the authorities in your country. if sold in stores there, your hands are clean, youre not liable, people can't sue you (successfully), or your insurance has to pay up. you give them even the flimsiest of excuses, youre fucked, on the hook for thousands, tens of thousand, hundreds of thousands, more. is saving a few bucks on a charger worth all that hassle? pay the extra and sleep easy. some $ savings are not worth it.

i know Toocki is well regarded here, doesn't matter. Anker is sold everywhere and no court would say you were reckless by using an Anker charger. But Toocki? No one's heard of it, it's not sold in your country by big/respected retailers. the opposing (((lawyers))) can easily make the argument that you didn't take 'reasonable measures' to ensure safety, that you took 'unreasonable risk' and jeapordized the safety of everything and everyone in the building (you live in a block of flats? think of how much you'll be on the hook for if you endanger all those people). Your argument of
>b-b-but /JEE/ said it was fine! /CHINK SHIT GENERAL/ (my internet frens, heh) said it was the same as Anker, just cheaper, and I didn't wanna give the Anker jews that extra cash bro
isn't gonna hold up.
Some things youve got to play it safe. This is one of those things. Don't take a silly risk to save a handful of bux in this jew world.
To clarify, I'm not saying the Toocki or whatever off AliEx is any more likely to cause a fire. Maybe it's the same, maybe it's even less. But you'll legally be in the clear with something off the shelf in your cunt, you wont be with the Toocki.

I have a certain device that fails to detect the 5G wi-fi after a router restart until something else connects to it. But once that happens it can usually disconnect and reconnect at will. The "something else" in question (just a phone) doesn't have any issue finding and connecting to it right away.
What could be the reason for this?

>>103168755
You're absolutely right. I hadn't looked at it from a legal liability things; I was just doing a risk analysis of actually having a fire/frying a component.
I'll just pay the extra for the peace of mind. Thanks, anon.

>>103168528
>well in that case isnt it better to test them as a package?
If they're old and you're probably going to throw them out anyway, it might behoove you to know if there's a Frankenstein option.
>so out of the 16,280 mAh i assume there's got to be some % penalty converting 3.7V to 5V
Yeah, your conversion loss is around 10-30%. So you apply 70-90% to the 16.28Ah, and your real 5V output in Ah works out to somewhere around 14.6~11.4. For a reasonably honest new power bank.

No. And it likely doesn't even affect any other LAN ports at all.
But if it's let's say one gigabit and you fully saturate it, then you fully saturate it from both. Is your NAS that fast?

What kinda sensor is it?

It's probably a PIR (has a white clearish plastic part--google it) which works by sensing changes in heat--not motion. They're basically crappy thermal vision. That is why you can open the shower door and not trigger it but your hand does (thermal can't see through glass and opening the door makes no significant thermal change). If you could get something that quickly heats up and cools down fast enough, it should trigger it. Maybe a TEC plate sitting right in front of it some how hooked up to a timer?

If the sensor looks like it has a grill, like it could be a speaker, it is probly ultrasonic. But I doubt this is the case because it should detect motion when opening the shower door (not needing to wave your hand) because it is an actual motion sensor. Could probly get some emitter for raspberry pi or something and interfere some how....or get one of those oscillating from good will, take off the blades and let it oscillate right in front of the motion sensor.

Yeah the single external monitor thing sucks. You could either get an M3 Air and close the MacBook lid to get 2 external displays, or a M4 Pro and have all 3.

>>103170082
the only thing I can think of is the paper was a different temperature (even only 1 degree difference can possibly stick out like a neon sign to thermal vision) than the rest of the room. Like if your hands warmed it up even just a little, and then it came out from behind the glass fast enough, it's totally plausible it'd trigger a PIR sensor.

I am kinda stumped on why the shirt draped over the door works. Maybe it's a dual sensor?

>>103167632

They're both the same, Codecs like DTS-HD MA are just less efficient than FLAC and need higher bitrates to achieve the same lossless output. Don't think that something is wrong because a 4,000kbps DTS track encoded into a 1,200kbps FLAC track and it's in any way worse.

going through my shed, I have a bunch of computers sitting here, most of which are dusty but which should work, and I wouldn't mind throwing together a disc ripper computer, using the """"best"""" optical drive/s I have, but would need to benchmark them first to figure out which are bad, and which are slightly less bad?

>>103171337
ripping doesn't really require good seek speed/latency, because ripping is a linear process, reading from start to end. there's a bit of random access to begin with with things like DVDs and BluRays, but not enough to care about
just look at the labels to see their max speed, that should be enough. but if you want to know how they compare in practice, then test them yourself, have them rip the kinds of discs you want to rip, and measure how long they take

>>103171337
Consider the following: speed goes up on the outer edge of the disc.

>>103171391
this is true, your '16x' readers and discs for example are more like 8x at the start then ramp up to 16x at the end, it's "16x MAX" for a reason
the reason is simple physics, it's a spinning disc, data near the start (middle of the disc) has a smaller circumference than the end (outside of disc), so there's less data per rotation

>>103171363

I'm new to java, am I falling into a trap by trying to have everything be it's own class?

>Nearly useless, since all can be done by the newer machine faster and better.
OP already has these machines so why throw them away? In some cases you will see no benefits from using newer hardware.

Does anyone know how to make the stupid new device timer work on 4chan?
I bought a new phone and I'm trying to get it to work, I've waited for the 900 seconds three times and as soon as it's done I press the get captcha button again and it just goes to the same thing for another 900 seconds. I've left it on the screen with it on the entire time too

you'll always need some form of anti-aliasing because no matter the pixel count, you'll always get aliasing.

As someone who has done two days worth of coding in java I'll chime in and say the widowImages array is a fixed size and if your number is 15 then it's only going to contain that.

>>103174462
Right, yeah I'd have to change the w variable.
I mean the expression on the right, I don't really get what it's doing with the nf()

>>103174477
It's a number formater.
It takes w (which is the array position) adds 1, then adds a number of zeros before that (up to 4), to get the image number.
W = 2
loadimage will shit out "windows/w0003.png" which is the file path.
If w = 567 -> "windows/w0568.png" etc etc

Anyone know where in Chance imageboard browser I can enter a 4chan pass?

>>103174540
Oh, nice.
So as long as I change w and keep them four digit filenames properly formatted that's all I have to do.
Thanks anon.

>>103174016
No, that's just java. Pathological abstractions are the norm. It only gets worse from here.

>>103174719
Fair.

Anyone here know anything about Twitter?

>DM someone who has DMs open
>Don't follow them and they don't follow me
>Don't hear back from them (it's complicated, but I did expect a reply)
>Check the DM I sent
>"you can no longer send direct messages to this person"
>Check their account
>They don't have blocked me
>Doesn't mention anything to do with needing to be verified or having to following each other etc

Anyone know what the deal is here?

My only guess is that for some reason your IP address changes or cookie is not saved in the browser.

Might as well repost.

Is there any way to block page elements without using uBlock? I use it to block parts of YouTube's atrocious UI, but I'm worried that YouTube's constant anti-adblock shenanigans might break it and want a backup, either directly in-browser or using a different extension. I don't know much about webdev, please spoonfeed.

Do I need to learn Javascript and how to write Monkey scripts?

I moved a pc from the main pc on the router and now it's acting as a regular one. It's no longer connecting to internet via ethernet. I'm going to update drivers right now, but is there something that I need to reconfigure since it's not being used as the main computer?

iknowwhatyoudownload is filled with stuff I have not only never downloaded, but I have never even heard of. What’s going on? Bogus site? Compromised network? ISP gives multiple users the same IP?

Are there tools used for network testing? Say you have a network with a series of switched linked in cascade, is there way to test for latency and speed transmission from one end to another? Something that doesn't force me to ping/do mock file transfers for each device. I don't know anything about networking by the way

>>103175280
iperf?

>>103175171
You share an IP with alot of people
Be nice :)
(ISPs can find who did what if they are so inclined, even if only by timing)

Help guys

What is wrong with my install?

I am trying to install Linux on my fresh off the shelf windows laptop, ASUS 410K with windows 11S

I tried installing Linux Mint 22 first, but I managed to mess up the partitions, and then it wouldn't boot from disk nor USB due to MOK, so I tried ubuntu install instead, but now there is another error so it won't finalize the install. I can't remember what the error message is now, it's late in the afternoon and I am spent. Please help.

Pic related is the error log I get.

>>103175436
Thanks. Hopefully this will be enough

Using CSS to display none on an element. You could inject it through a userscript with GM_addStyle or the extension stylus (or ublock)

.myclass {
    display: none !important;
}

>>103176048
If you wanted to remove the element rather than just stop it displaying then you would need javascript, yes

is there a way to automatically handle ssh public keys for hosts in ~/.ssh/known_hosts? I am using GitLab and provisioning VMs with Terraform. public/private key pairs can be generated during resource creation but is there a way to add them to GitLab CI/CD variable like $SSH_KNOWN_HOSTS?

No, I am not interested in 'StrictHostKeyChecking no'

>>103176048
>>103176067
Thank you! I suspect that both ways should work for what I need.

>>103176178
Not sure what you're trying to accomplish but there is a ton of stuff you can do with the .ssh/config file, the documentation is pretty extensive.
