I ordered some USB flash drives over Amazon. Before I plug them in, how can I make sure they're genuine and not some chink aliexpress spyware or 1024MB sticks instead?

Boot up your distro of choice from external storage and zero them with dd and/or create a new partition table with gparted and create a new volume.

Fuck I messed up my tags, let me try this again.
I'm trying to make a simple program that retrieves the pointer from an array. It's not really working though.
// Assume C89.
#include <stdio.h>

char const *random = "Hello world!\n";
void const *hypothetical[] = {&random};

int main() {
char *test;
printf("Pointer to random: %p\n", random);
printf("Pointer to hypothetical: %p\n", hypothetical);
test = (char *) hypothetical;
printf("Dereference from hypothetical: %p\n", *test); // Should equal random.
}

Sample output:
Pointer to random: 00408004
Pointer to hypothetical: 00408068
Dereference from hypothetical: 00000064

What am I doing wrong?

char const *random = "Hello world!\n";
void const **hypothetical[] = {&random};

int main() {
char **test;
printf("Pointer to random: %p\n", random);
printf("Pointer to hypothetical: %p\n", hypothetical);
test = (char **) hypothetical[0];
printf("Dereference from random: %p\n", *test);

Can someone explain to me like I'm functionally retarded how the settings in my BIOS for RAM work? Specifically around overclocking. I'm having weird memory leaks and crashes on both Windows and Linux. Apparently it's either my GPU, or my RAM failing. I don't think it's my GPU because although I abuse it a bit, I don't abuse it anywhere near as bad as most people.
Most of my independent research suggests it's something to do with my RAM timing but I have no clue what the fuck these settings mean.
My motherboard is a Z790 UD AC if that matters.

Is this a good way to break out of nested loops?
first = true
point = (mark)
while first:
while true:
while true:
first = false
trace point
print "end"

It's a custom language I'm working on and the mark function returns a special object that marks where within the code you are at the moment of calling the function. Whenever trace is triggered, it attempts to get back to where the mark was created. I could implement break like in Python, but it's kind of limited compared to my solution.

YouTube has become ridiculously unresponsive on my computer. It's running in Firefox on an A10-9700 with a GTX 1050Ti running GNOME on Arch Linux.

The page sometimes refreshes multiple times, the time-bar cannot be clicked and keyboard shortcuts stop responding. The only add-on that's running is uBlock Origin. I cleared the cache. Same results.

Do you leave the house often or have you been prevented from leaving because your devices were not charged? If not, just get a second charger.
I have a power bank that can charge 3 devices at the same time with 18W of power, total capacity 20k mAh and in the year since I got it, I maybe used it 10 times. Since I work from home, I only ever need the powerbank when I go on some extended trip which is not very often.

Could you make it so that an executable (and all its child processes) has no read or write access to any files outside of its own folder, and also disable any data of that executable to go through your network?
And would this completely negate any kind of malware that could have been present in that executable?
Of course, restraints like these would break many apps, but it would also work just fine for a lot of them, like most pirated games, etc.

A dog would be the easiest choice because I spend a lot of time at home and I might have to go 2 days/week at my workplace.
A cat would be ok but there's a chance it might escape and never return back home or it might attract other stray cats.

Because Windows not having a standard installer made automated management difficult. If you outsource the installer to 3rd parties that's an extra layer of unpredictability admins have to deal with.

I'm not saying it's good either. Like, clearly there's a cottage industry providing automated installers for Windows.

Steam has to periodically reach out to their servers to maintain access to your games right? Like if you just go inawoods for a few months, eventually you're cut off access from your game library?
How effective are tools like Steamless/Goldberg at circumventing this in 2017+8? Or what other methods to get around this jewery?

ya, no problem. also be mindful that Windows is basically like every other OS with a dynamically linked C-like runtime, so most the time you can simply just unpack executables and put them next to their dependencies. Windows linker for some reason has a rpath which includes $origin by default.
for registry shit, it gets funky but for stuff like HKCR, if you know that HKCR is basically a union of a path in HKCU and HKLM, you can bypass the need for admin for HKLM for instance. it's all so fucking tiresome honestly. I can't stand windows.

Never because there's no point in building something like that. 6k at 42" is about the limit for filling your field of view with pixels so small you can't see them. And even then with all the other stuff you're asking for the information density is so great you basically can't use copper anymore and we'd have to abandon displayport for fiber optic connections.

I used to watch movies on TV from my laptop running plex, stopped for a year because of studies and shit.

Now after installing plex on my lg oled, it did not work, tried jellyfin, emby, nothing.
Fell back to DLNA. Even that did not work.
Spent a week reading through reddit and windows forums tinkering with firewall, network sharing options etc. No luck.

On a whim decided to connect laptop and TV to my phone hotspot, and everything started working.

It was the dogshit ISP supplied ONT+router that was fucking things up. They must have updated the firmware from backend or something and fucked things up.
Internet was working well all this while.

So the question is what settings can I look into to rectify this situation?

This.
16K at 44" would only be 400PPI, enough for 400% font clarity compared to a usual 1080p 22" screen which is a pixelated mess at 100PPI.

The goal is a "window" effect so you see the content, not the pixels.
No, the fact that 12pt bitmap fonts at 400 PPI would be hard to read is not an argument against hi PPI. You simply render text at a different size, and abandon fucking subpixel bullshit entirely.

I finally got me some speakers (Creative Pebble V3) recently. They're pretty alright, they'll have a split second fade-in when unpausing music which my headphones and monitor speakers didn't have but that's fine as its own little thing.
Today I noticed they'll fade out and back in (not to the point of going completely silent but the volume clearly goes down) on this.

You could probably have that built right now on a custom basis out of 11" 4k panels, but it would be a half million $$ monitor. It'll probably be a semi-common digital signage format in 20-40 years.

>>103882364
I think most people will consider PC monitors finished with 6k / 35" and 8k / 44". It takes a lot more than 400ppi to completely eliminate the possibility of aliasing at ~1.5m. Try the testufo aliasing test on your phone. Be some place where you can get a good distance away from it.

Even without any (3rd party) drivers, you should be able to boot windows in safe mode.
The CPU requires the GPU to run, but once it's physically installed, you can boot it with default drivers.
Think of this way: If you were building your PC for the first time, you wouldn't have any driver installed. If it worked the way you fear, you wouldn't be able to start it to begin with!

are steam decks worth looking into? I have a consumer computer for stuff like drawing but it isn't powerful enough for 3d games released in the last 10 years, at least without cranking all of them to minimum everything. I don't want to do anything super demanding with six gorillion ray tracers and rtx, I'd just like to try out some games from the Xbox one/PS4 era I missed out on

Probably not if you're going to sweat $200 because a Deck is e-waste once combined 16GB of memory isn't enough. Power and IO cost more, but they also make the hardware stay relevant longer. Consoles usually don't challenge desktops on CPU speed. It's not being able to upgrade the GPU and VRAM that kills you.

Not sure if there is a way to run the VM at a lower resolution and then have my host fullscreen the image, or if that would even improve performance. This wouldn't cause the image to look bad, as the VNs are natively at a much lower resolution than 1080p

it's a more integrated kind of setup.exe, one that follows the microsoft installer spec. it's good for automate deployments for examples, because you can be sure that an .msi can be installed the same way as any other .msi. whether some rando setup.exe supports things like silent installs on the other hand is a crapshoot. as for why ".msi" instead of ".exe", probably just to differentiate them so you know a file is for MicroSoft Installer

i believe steam offline mode has no time limit, but you have to be online to set it to offline mode to begin with. offline mode is a special option separate from simply not having an internet connection when you try to start it
also note that games that had pending updates can't be started, though there's a way to manually tell steam to ignore that. as for steam emulators, they also work really well
also note that this all applies only to games that use only steam authentication. most do, but some games may also have their own authentication system in addition to steam, and those may not honour steam offline mode, so it's best to test your games before going innawoods

sounds like you don't actually know but if steam does have no time limit on offline play that's good.
i once bought 1 game on Ubisoft's game launcher and didn't want to patch the game so I blocked the launcher in my firewall and everything related to it and the game.
a week or two later I try to play my game and i'm told that i MUST go online. i've not purchased anything from Ubisoft's store ever since and I uninstalled their launcher and installed a pirated copy of my game.

>you have to be online to set it to offline mode to begin with

not to be a downer or anything but i'm a bit worried about how big steam is for PC gaming. valve has a weird structure and there's no way knowing how the company will change after Gabe kicks the bucket. and it's not like valve is all candy and sunshine now either.

sidenote while on the topic, i can't believe Steam still has no way of seeing how many players that can play together in multiplayer games. is it 4 per server? 16? 128? you always have to look that shit up when there's no reason it couldn't be right in the store page tags.

I don't mean the number of players that are currently playing the game online.
I mean for example crafting games that you can host a private server for your friends to play with you, how many players it supports playing together at the same time.
Even games that have millions of players online still just show a "Multiplayer (2-5)" tag if at minimum 2 and maximum 5 players are playing together at the same time.

I don't know where else to ask this without making a new thread, but what's the best Logitech keyboard right now? Full form factor. Even willing to take older models that have been discontinued assuming I can still find them somewhere new.
Currently have the G610. Keys are breaking and replacements are expensive because it's expensive. So ideally similar to this model.

I recently got the new Mac mini. Installed an ios game to try out. The app itself is around 200mb,and when it opens it needs to DL 2gb more, so I put the app on an external drive (Journaled format) and run it off there. After it DL'd data I closed it and checked and the app size was still 200mb. Where did the extra data download to and how do I delete it?

Explain how do programming language runtimes work. How are they able to interrupt program execution (to run GC for example) if the runtime itself is running on the same thread?
Anonymous 01/14/25(Tue)11:36:32 No.103891948

Because the runtime is responsible for loading the program from storage and translating it to host native machine code. It can insert whatever it wants. When your program allocates memory it's calling a stub function which is filled in by the runtime.

If I have an extra GPU, can I put it in my computer, tell my main OS to not bother even looking at it, but use it for VMs running on the OS? Like basically tell the OS "use PCI slot 1 for graphics" and then VMWare or whatever "PCI slot 2 is for your guest OS graphics"

There's still a loading process before execution. Programs generally aren't stored in their complete form.

This is using the OS facilities of timer signals and signal handlers to move execution to a specific point after an external signal.

Yes, that's what plenty of people do. And the OS will know it's there, but it's only going to bother using the GPU you have monitors hooked up to. What you do with VMs is basically tell the OS to use the GPU for the VM. Look up gpu passthrough.

I don't really know the specifics myself so you'll have to look up a guide. I think it's more or less what you said, but it's usually the other way. People use the weaker gpu on the host OS and the stronger gpu on the VM. Usually because their using Linux but still want to play video games so they have a Windows VM that uses the stronger GPU. I'm sure what you want to do will be fine as well.
>host OS uses some beefy proper card so I can play hot new video games like Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare(2006) at a blazing 45fps

my plan was to put Win 10 LTSC on it and have VMs just for running game servers and such.

The original plan was to have it as JUST a server, but I don't have a laptop to thin client it up and this box is so much more powerful than my current rig I may as well just salvage what I can from the current rig and finally junk the old girl. or use the old computer just for storage or something. hence the thought of popping the old GPU in the new box and just using it as my proper desktop. it's not powerful, but it's some HP prebuilt that appears to be mostly made of server parts. It's got like 8 memory slots and 4 full size PCI-E slots, and the usual x4,x8 shit for a modem. which it came with. idk.

im really just trying to look at the sum of junk i have and see how i can use all of it

anyway if i've got electricity to spare i guess I'll just try it once I have the thing set up. this thing is gonna distroy my wallet through power bills

>older games better
unironically the only new game that's at all GPU heavy that I play is Satisfactory. And Timberborn, but that seems more CPU-bound and it's a fuckin city builder it can run at 25fps and even on ultra the beavers look like cubes someone hit subdivide on anyway so I don't give a fuck. but my other use cases for a PC can go on integrated graphics really.

Okay, so I bought an RTX 2080ti off of Facebook Marketplace. The guy said he hadn't used it for crypto. From the outside it seems like a legit card. I plugged it into my computer and did a check gpu benchmark and it was running around what the card should run at. Around a week or two later, today, it started artifacting. I did the usual things like reseating, checking the cables, monitor, and plugging in old GPU. It's most likely a GPU problem. The guy said he hadn't used it for crypto. He also said that he hadn't used it for quite some time and that it was working for him when he used it. Think this was a scam? Or just ignorance. Either way at best he'd offer me half the money back if I can "identify the issue". Like bullshit. Is there even anything I should do or just give up on it?

chmod 750 /usr/sbin/shutdown; reboot
(tried to run commands above with sbin/ without usr/)
but even after that the output of

Setting the width/height above the image size blurs it by upscaling. There's no reason to duplicate properties too.
Also, you could apply a box-shadow filter to make it glow:
/* Hide the default SVG icon */
.watch-thread-link > .icon {
display: none !important;
}

/* Update watch thread link to show 4chan favicon */
.watch-thread-link {
background-image: url('https://s.4cdn.org/image/favicon.ico') !important;
vertical-align: sub;
background-repeat: no-repeat !important;

opacity: 1 !important;
}

/* Watched thread icon */
.watch-thread-link.watched {
background-image: url('https://s.4cdn.org/image/favicon-ws.ico') !important;
filter: drop-shadow(0px 0px 4px rgb(100 100 255 / 0.75));
}

/* Align the checkbox next to the watch-thread-link */
.op .postInfo > input[type="checkbox"] {
vertical-align: bottom; /* Aligns checkbox with the favicon */

.msi is a package format. So it contains a manifest of what's being installed. A setup.exe is just an executable that is running an installation binary.
an .msi can call setup.exe to run installation processes, but there are other things within a package manifest that are useful to the installer. Like a signature, version numbers, uninstall information, etc.

>give better info from their training.
depends on the size of the training data. can you imagine a model trained on the entire internet? it would be unusable.
The models are trained on typically basic interpretation data for token generation (i.e. language interpretation) and on 'blacklists' of content that are weighted negatively in the algo that the LLMs are supposed to steer clear from. Political stuff and anything that doesn't align with the (((creator's))) point of view.

Okay so, I was playing a game and reached the end of it, the end credits / ending move start playing.

Except, my screen goes black, then a few seconds later my monitor goes into standby. The soundtrack is all playing normally, but any keys I press - even Ctrl + Alt + Delete, don't do shit and the monitor remains in standby and the music keeps playing as normal. Turned it off and on again, it visually does the usual monitor startup graphics then goes back on standby.

Waited it out, eventually the music stops playing, monitor still on standby. Unplugged the monitor cable and back again, nothing. Restarted monitor a second time, same deal as before. Forcefully restarted my PC, it briefly displayed what I think was a bright blue CMOS menu or something similar for about half a second before going back to how it was, but other than that the monitor was in standby still. Restarted my monitor again, same deal as the other two times.

Finally I went on my phone to start making this post asking for help, restarted my monitor a 4th time so I could better describe the monitor's post and this time it came on and worked as normal.

What the fuck happened or is happening, what does it all mean or could be, and how do I prevent it happening again?

The 5G part is the "wire area network" part. It's not like your PCs use 5G or anything. You still have local network there, be it wired or Wi-Fi.
>But now my router’s signal won’t even reach to my PC
That's called Wi-Fi.

zoomers cannot tell the difference between wifi and 5g and just think 5g is "faster"

however, this is carefully curated bait. most laptops do have WWAN cards, but they do not work on 5g without a sim card. even a zoomer would be able to understand that he is using wifi and not 5g if he had not inserted a sim card into his laptop and used the much jankier mobile internet setup wizard rather than the ezmode "click the tray icon and click the name you know" wifi setup.

on top of that, specifying "two wifi dongles" is odd. PCs dont generally come with wifi dongles, and few come with discrete NICs let alone dual-antenna wifi cards. such a WLAN device would likely be onboard the mobo and at most have a screw-on antenna.

anon, in being well versed with computers, included too many details that a normie would miss or get wrong in his attempt to bait. he just threw a professional-grade rod in the water

even if not bait, yes, you needed those antennae.

yes, because most cheaper drives have what's called a pseudo-SLC cache. basically, instead of real SLC cache, it dynamically allocates unused space as pseudo-SLC, meaning the cells are used for 1-bit storage rather than 4-bit storage (in the case of QLC). this is faster, like SLC. but if you're running low on free space, then there's less space available for said cache, which can hurt performance
