Could it be encrypted? The guide in >>14637 mentions it's possible, though in your case the encrypted partition would be the second one.
To make sure it is you can try viewing the filesystem image in a hex editor, then looking at its header to see if it's encrypted or not.
If it's not, then according to https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/technotes/tn/tn1150.html#VolumeHeader there should be at offset 1024 (decimal) first two bytes should contain the signature 'H+' for an HFS+ volume or 'HX' for an HFSX volume.
It also mentions that there should be a copy of its header before the last 512 bytes at end of the volume.

From that page:
>Every HFS Plus volume must have a volume header. The volume header contains sundry information about the volume, such as the date and time of the volume's creation and the number of files on the volume, as well as the location of the other key structures on the volume. The volume header is always located at 1024 bytes from the start of the volume.
>A copy of the volume header, known as the alternate volume header, is stored starting at 1024 bytes before the end of the volume. The first 1024 bytes of volume (before the volume header), and the last 512 bytes of the volume (after the alternate volume header) are reserved.
struct HFSPlusVolumeHeader {
    UInt16              signature;
    UInt16              version;
    // other fields omitted
};
>The fields have the following meaning:
>signature
>    The volume signature, which must be kHFSPlusSigWord ('H+') for an HFS Plus volume, or kHFSXSigWord ('HX') for an HFSX volume.

>Yet hearing of "14 TB HDD" and "8 SATA ports" leaves your mouth wide open?
You misunderstand me. 14 TB always connected is what is weird. Why do you need all that at all times to the point you refuse to use anything with less capacity?
>That shows that you either don't really care about the data OR are a masochist
I do care, otherwise I wouldn't bother saving anything. It's a simple matter of not suffering from OCD. I don't feel compelled to have synced backups on a minute-by-minute basis.

>>14729
>It's a good idea to have offline backups too.
They also have the added advantage of being easily taken in an emergency.

>>14705
The only differences between HDD brands are:
* ((( Seagate ))) is the least trustworthy brand. Avoid. Of course you can mitigate the risks with ZFS/RAID and frequent backups. But imo it's just better to buy Toshiba or Western Digital.
* Toshiba is cheap and good.
* Western Digital is good
* HGST was the best manufacturer until they got bought by Western Digital. Nowadays you can't find new HGST drives anymore.
* Don't even consider other HDD brands.

>and also about SATA to USB adapters?
They are good enough if you use the drive like external HDD but you should buy internal SATA3 expansion card.

I'm trying to figure out how I should set up my server.
My usage is using it for backup and archival purposes. I plan on putting all my media that I have on it (images, manga, pdfs/epubs and roms) and I was wondering how I should go about with things. The system this server would be running on is a Raspberry Pi 4 with 8 gigs of RAM and attached is a 5TB storage device. I'm pretty new to this self-hosting server stuff, so I would love some pointers.

>>14749
rsync is probably all you need to install on there, and every distro has a package for it.
https://rsync.samba.org/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync
If your desktop runs Windows, you can install Cygwin to allow running rsync, ssh, and shell scripts.
There are also various front-ends or backup products that use rsync under the hood. I've never used them, because rsync is simple enough if you can write basic shell scripts.
Some things to watch out for though:
Trailing / in paths is significant.
Don't use the --delete options, you probably don't want this.
Always use the -n (--dry-run) option first, to test your script.
You can run rsync on the server as a daemon, but you can also have it transfer the data over ssh instead. But in this case you'll probably want to copy your SSH public key to the server, to avoid needing to type in your password every time.

>>14749
I personally use syncthing + btrfs snapshots for everything. Rsync also works very well and certainly is the more "minimalist" solution, but your computers always need to always be connected via ssh which becomes problematic if you want to have your stuff synced when you're leaving your house >implying 
For automatic snapshots I use the shell script btrbk. Runs periodically using cronjobs.

Yes, youre right, if he just wants to archive stuff that's the better option.
But imo the best solution would be btrfs send | receive, which does the same thing, but it can send multiple snapshots to another drive.
Snapshots are basically copies of whole filesystems that don't take up additional space, as long as the files aren't changed.
It's similar to hardlinks.
I use btrbk to do snapshots and then send them to another drive automatically.

Hey everyone, backup/archive anon here. Everything went smoothly, so again, thank you very much. rsync worked perfectly, i just needed to change the ownership and the permissions on the drive.
My only question now is if I should suspend/hibernate the server. Again, this is just a simple storage server so I'm not really messing with it.

>>14768
You should shutdown unless you have a reason not to. Startup time is short enough now that it's not an issue.

I usually always suspend my computers. I usually update my kernel every 4 months or so and that's the only time I shutdown.
My server I leave running 24/7 with disabled spindown to preserve drive longevity.
I really depends on your use case. If you want to make backups every week or so, it would make sense to only start it up if you make a backup.
If you need to access the files every other day or so, it would make sense to disable spindown and always leave the server running since spinning down/up drives is quite straining on their longevity.

If you're the catposter from /v/ hardware thread I only know about as much as you do, the main issue is having enough vram to load the entire model and context so it doesnt get bottlenecked by your storage drive.

Nice, glad you recovered those files.
Looking back at >>14759:
Since fdisk recognized the type of the big partition (for you) along with its offset, and the recovery program you used found files with their names thus suggesting that metadata may be intact, then perhaps all that was left was figuring the right program and arguments to mount the partition.
Regardless, what matters is that you got the old man's stuff back.

>>14788
I paid 130  shekels for that software. The files are all srambled, will be hell to bring that in a somewhat coherent order.
I can only hope I didn't miss some method to mount the partition after all. 
But I tried various methods, also mounting the drive in macos with its provided recovery utilities and even that didn't work. So that makes me hopeful I didn't waste 130€ on that recovery software.

Can you easily replace UI icons on Windows 7 (before anyone mentions it, I do use Linux on my main machine, and I only use Windows 7 offline on an old laptop for VNs and older games)? Although I like the aesthetic of the UI icons in general, the nigger icons (eg. pic rel) bug me. If you can replace icons, where can I find alternative icons on the internet? Otherwise, if there's a really good icon pack out there (eg. based on Touhou characters (or other 2D girls) or something) I wouldn't mind replacing everything with it.
Please refrain from garbage replies like "you're obsessed", thank you.

Where do you search for torrents?

>>14805
You can use something like resource hacker to replace icons in DLL files. If you're having a 64-bit windows, you might have to do it with both 32 and 64-bit dlls, and windows update could fuck you over (but there are no more updates for 7, so that shouldn't be an issue). Obviously make a backup before and have a live cd/pendrive ready in case shit hits the fan.
Now where do you find an icon pack that has icons for shit like that, I have no idea.

Anon, I'm looking for a cheap itx board, and came accrosss the asrock h310cm-dvs which has everything I'm looking for at just 40 shekels.
But it's sold as "micro-atx" by various vendors. How come?
the other board is sold as "itx" and it has the exact same form factor except the one missing x1 pci-e slot. 
Other micro-atx boards I have seen, are much larger.

Is this some sort of mistake? Will the h310cm-dvs still fit into my itx case?

(Same anon as a few posts above)
Moving files to the offline Windows PC using a USB stick is inconvenient and I thought of making a shared folder that I can access from my Linux PC. Usually you would do that on a LAN with a switch or a router (I would have to make it so the Windows PC can only access the LAN and not the internet, though), but I don't have a switch yet and I don't have an ethernet cable from the router going to my room either (I use a USB Wi-Fi dongle), so my only option is directly connecting the two PCs with an ethernet cable. When I try to share a folder on the Windows PC, though, it gives a vague error just saying that it's unable to share the folder (and yes, I enabled all the related settings in the control panel, etc). I suspect that this is because the direct connection is not working. Does anyone know what I should configure to make a direct ethernet connection between two PCs (Windows and Linux) work, and any way of testing it?

>>14810
you need to install samba on the linux machine

>>14811
I'm following this guide: https://opensource.com/article/21/4/share-files-linux-windows , in the "Access Windows from Linux" part.
After I do "Check whether your current username is on the list. Click on Share to tag this folder as shared:", it just gives an error message saying that the folder can't be shared, and also when I try to access "\\localhost" it says that it can't find "\\localhost"..

>>14810
>>14812
Never mind, the Windows PC was missing network drivers. I can now share folders and "\\localhost" does give a result.
Now, I set up a static IP on the Windows PC, but when I try to ping it from Linux it says "Destination Host Unreachable"

It looks like your output is buffered (maybe you redirected stdout to a file?) If that's the case, you can try --outbuf=L (or even N)

Your Linux interface also needs an IP on the same subnet/mask. If that's already the case, run "arp -na" to check if Linux knows the other computer's ethernet address.

Do soycial media crapps on phones tend to use the HTTP protocol, or do they directly query the databases for the "content"?

>>14835
I wonder if s*x analogies are even worse than food analogies. Who knows.
Anyway, the protections I implied were TOR/VPN, blocking/deleting cookies, spoofing user agent data, etc. They're useful in general even JQ (Javascript question) aside, so if you don't want to use them you may as well abstain from the whole internet.

>>14836
They usually have some API over HTTPS, because so called "apps" are usually little more than a webbrowser with the url bar hidden and hardcoded to open the social media's website. So you end up with shit like, having HTTP, then inside it running websocket, then inside some custom protocol, because that's the only thing you can do from a browser, and even if a phone app could do more, nobody bothers to develop a second protocol for them when they already have a "working" one (and if both written in javashit, they can just reuse the code).
Also no direct DB access, that would be a catastrophe. There was some freeware game where players could make and submit levels to some server. Turns out that server was a simple MySQL server, and the password for it was in the game and it directly executed the SQL queries against the servers. Needless to say, it only lasted until someone figured out it works like this and fucked up the DB.

Is FreeBSD hardware support really that bad? I want to have a home server running FreeBSD (for native ZFS) and I was thinking of using some random office PC from eBay since Anon recommends them ( >>14711 ) and you can get them for pretty cheap, but I don't want to buy a computer to then realize FreeBSD is broken on it.

Protip: on *BSD, the man pages tell you what hardware devices are supported, and to what level. FreeBSD also has a big FAQ that might have useful info in there too.
So you'll have to check out exactly what chipsets are on the mobo and search in those documentations on their website.
In general, older hardware will have better support. Until you get to really ancient stuff (they start removing those eventually).
If you can get the seller to show you a "dmesg" or whatever the equivalent is for Windows (device manager or whatever it's called), that would probably help you greatly.

Anon here. I found a larger former gayming computer on the same dumpster. Stood a week in the rain and someone threw a 20kg printer on it, but the lil nigger still works. Just had to swap GPU and Ram. GPU on pic just for testing. Will get a 1060 or something.
If you just want an unobstrusive small file server or something, I'd still recommend that smol Dell or similar office machine, but upgrades are gonna be harder since they have a low profile slot, will be harder to find GPUs in that format.
For example if you wanna run Jellyfin for your family, Haswell doesn't have HVEC transcoding. 
The CPU will quickly hit the wall and you'll see buffering. 
If you are looking to have hardware transcoding you should go for at least 7th gen intel which has a capable iGPU or get a Tower where you can just pop a modern GPU inside. Nvidia is recommended for transcoding.

Where do you guys get chinkpad batteries that last for more than 4 hours at a time? I'm looking to replace the battery on my X230 so that I could put it to new use, but in the past I had bad experiences with ebay and aliexpress.
>>14769
>>14777
Thanks again. Turns out my motherboard doesn't allow that option of suspending so I just shut it down. It has very low power consumption so I could technically leave it on, but I figured I may just as well turn it off.

>>14863
I don't know about FreeBSD specifically but from my linux experience it's laptops you need to be careful of because they have weird components that are selected because they have low power consumption or have the right shape to fit inside the case but they only made 100 of them so nobody bothered writing *nix drivers for it and everything is soldered to the motherboard so you can't even replace the problematic component.

>random office PC
Will probably be fine.

>>14867
>Where do you guys get chinkpad batteries that last for more than 4 hours at a time?
4 hours is pretty good. If you actually need more than that open it up and see if there is space/connections for an internal battery. I don't know about x230 but I have x250 and x260s with two batteries and they last all day. Other than that you need to rice the software side of things (turn the CPU frequency down, enable power saving mode in wifi, turn down the screen brightness etc.)

Try passing -map 0:a:1: it should select the audio track at index 1 (starting from 0, therefore the second audio track) from the input file at index 0 (the first one, in this case video.mkv).
You may also have to pass the video track with -map 0:v.
The final command may look like this: ffmpeg -i video.mkv -map 0:v -map 0:a:1 -vf "subtitles='video.mkv':si=0" out.mp4

>>14903
Yes, you are missing the point. Proxmox deals with vm, docker is containers. Use a srarch engine if you don't get it. Also stop watching jewtube click bait nigger videos. Proxmox is used for clustering computers to make vm managemrnt easy. Imagine you are renting vps out to people, you don't want to have to manually launch vm on every single machine. And if you want to replace or add more machines, it's way easier. Docker (not swarm) isn't even about the same thing.

Honestly I've been running gentoo for around a year now and never had any major issues except for one or the other slot conflict that was easily resolved by just adding some number to the dependency in the corresponding portage config file.
I update my system maybe once a month and it just compiles everything through the night. the next day my dem is cozy warm and I have an updated system.
I created some alias for upgrading emerge with a ridicolous bdeps 1000 or something. So portage somehow figures all the depency problems out all by itself. No clue how exactly it does that.
What do people do to break their systems all the time?

>>14905
>What chassis is that? Looks like it takes some special adaptors.
I dunno. Found it on the dumpster. there was a harddrive installed, but it was awkwardly shoved int with those slot screws. I thought there might be a more elegant way and that it's missing some common rack mount or something. But I guess every case manufacturer does its own thing.

Yeah. Kinda odd that people use it for their "homeserver" setup.

I want to increase my root partition and encrypt my home partition. Can I just back up the contents of my root and home partitions, then using a live environment do these edits to my drive, and then move the root and home partition contents back over? Provided, I will have to update fstab and set up the thing so it asks the encryption key on boot, but other than that, will the system work fine?

>>14929
Why not? You just need to do it right.

>>14929
you didn't provide any specifics such as the distribution you're using. 
Look up Full Disk encryption. It's the most secure and easy way to encrypt systems, I think, as it prevents glowniggers from injecting shit into your kernel if they ever get ahold of your computer. ONLY SUPPORTS LUKS 1 though. IT WON'T BOOT WITH LUKS 2 - that caused me major headaches in the past. 
You need to point grub to the encrypted drive, so it can auto encrypt it.  There are several guides online. There's also quirks for every initramfs system to auto encrypt after grub has already encrypted the drive so you don't have to type in your password twice.
Assuming you're using Debian:
https://www.dwarmstrong.org/fde-debian/

>>14935
*so it can auto decrypt it

>>14929
You can use Gparted in a live environment to adjust the size of the partitions.

>>14935
>the distribution you're using
Well, I thought that no one uses anything other than Arch.
>Full Disk encryption
>point grub to the encrypted drive
Wait, does that mean that I need a separate drive just for Grub?

>>14911
>What do people do to break their systems all the time?
They usually enable ~amd64 in their make.conf, instead of enabling it just for the packages that need it. Sometimes using -O3 optimization will break some programs or it can produce slower binaries than -O2 or -Os (you need to benchmark if you want to be sure).

>>14940
>-Os
using -Os can be sometimes fast because of CPU caches: https://igoro.com/archive/gallery-of-processor-cache-effects/

>>14911

Masking certain dependencies causes packages to not br able to be upgraded. I was massively fucked when opentmpfs got dropped and I don't want any piece of potteringware on my machine.

Why are you asking then? RTFM.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system#LUKS_on_a_partition
>need a separate drive just for Grub
>what are partitions
if you use uefi you still need a uefi partition - which glowniggers still could infiltrate - but not as easy as modifying the kernel I guess. 
If you don't use uefi you need a 3mb bios boot partition for grub.

If you're using Tor and come across a cuckflared website that asks you to enable cookies and JS to view it, which is the least bad option for privacy:
- Enabling cookies and JS
- Turning off Tor
Bonus points: don't answer "just don't go on that website dude"

>>14965
just don't go on that website dude
Seriously, if you make a few assumptions. it's the difference of getting scammed by some jews or even more jews. There is no privacy either way. If you assume cloudfuck doesn't havr strong ties with the website owner, then only cloudfuck has your data. Provided that you block all js and cookies right after you get through their checkbox. Your isp may not know which site you are browsing and the site owner probably alsp does. If you turn off tor, your isp, the site owner, cloudfuck all know.

>>14965
PROTIP: The JS is only needed on the initial benis inspection, provided your browser doesn't delete cookies upon closing the website tab any further visits to the site will only require the cookie in spite of cuckflare's insistence to the contrary.
I do however concur with >>14966 that avoiding such places is generally the better option.

Really? That's it? That's lame. I thought that (at least in compiled languages) it could have a special effect of substituting every instance of the const into the value it represents when compiling, instead of treating it like a normal variable that's housed in RAM (except it can't be edited).

>>15009
A crash / reboot with no warning or bluescreen/kernel panic could be caused by bad RAM. Install memtest on a USB to check the health of your RAM or if the crashes are frequent enough pull the RAM modules out one by one until the crashes stop.

>>15011
>What technical advantages do consts provide over normal variables?
For the human it makes the code easier to reason about because you don't have to keep track of all the places a variable might be changed because it can't be changed. For the compiler it can do more aggressive optimizations when you promise the variable won't change.

>>15021
>it could have a special effect of substituting every instance of the const into the value it represents when compiling
That would be constexpr (in C++). const just means value won't change it doesn't mean the value is known at compile time.

basically i want to re create an own map art like example pic related from the initial airport trip to the complete flight path mid air and the usual routes our bus takes plus EVERY single place i hike on foot into mongolia for as long as my phone has a decent battery charge (but IDK if all this still works after changing issued tourist SIMs midway)
also any alternative suggestions for shitty putlocker and 123movies they seem taken down for good but all i get is a bunch of pointless virus fakes i want to freely download and watch episodes of the simpsons before eventually boarding my plane in ten days

I need windows to upgrade my firmware so I can use the latest driver for this new racing wheel I bought for my sim vidya. kernel driver my for main system is installed

I got a spare laptop to use to update the firmware, what's a good version of winshit that's unbloated?

Not him but why are internal drives stil not usable externally and vice versa?
Its literally current year + 24

>>15037
NVME m.2 drives are naked pcbs, and are not really hotswapable. Exposing the port makes it easy for user to fuck up their hardware and data. Sata is hog swappable, but you also need to expose sata power input, which takes lot of space.

>>15042
I was referring to how a drive partitioned internally is invisible when accessed through usb

>>15035
>I got a spare laptop to use to update the firmware, what's a good version of winshit that's unbloated?
Sometimes the firmware update is self booting. You just dd it to a USB and boot and it does the update. If it is a windows executable then you might be able to get away with running it from Hiren's or Gandalf's.

>>15037
>why are internal drives stil not usable externally and vice versa?
It's the way the SATA/PCIe protocol works it needs to be initialized by the BIOS when the computer starts up you can't just plug an extra one in later. What USB harddrives do is they have their own little CPU that acts as a bridge between SATA and USB.

>>15035
>>15036
Thanks for that, anon. I now have another question for you guys.
To follow-up, steam cannot see my wheel for some reason, but it managed to find a thrustmaster shifter somehow.

here are my specs:

Distro - Void Linux
Wheel - thrustmaster TR300S GT 
Driver - hid-tmff2

Games that directly-support the wheel work great. but I have a few dumb janky unity car games that don't work well with anything but steam input, so I'd like to know if there's a program or something that can turn the input of the wheel into a virtual controller of some kind.

I found this: https://libreddit.bus-hit.me/r/linux_gaming/comments/17vipol/steam_virtual_controller/?rdt=65100
The problem is, this is beyond my level of expertise.

Do you guys know of any programs, command-line or otherwise that allows the creation of controller to controller input?

>>15046
>spacing
Found this using a search engine, https://github.com/bwRavencl/ControllerBuddy

>>15021
>I thought that (at least in compiled languages) it could have a special effect of substituting every instance of the const into the value it represents when compiling,
Use C preprocessor or m4 macro processor and #define it !

>>15035
>winshit that's unbloated?
There aren't one. You have 2 options:
1) embrace the botnet and temporarily dual-boot Windoze. I recommend latest Windows Server/LTSC. But AtlasOS is another choice, if you trust the project (note that it doesn't have Windows Update),.
2) Windows 7, but apparently they backported the botnet code?

thanks for the link anyway, but trying it out, it doesn't seem to work. In fact, further-looking onwards and testing, it seems this program's features are more-centric to getting controllers to work in esoteric sims, not getting esoteric sim gear to look like a console controller

Can anyone tell me how to record everything that comes out from audio speaker without configuring jack or dicking up asound.rc file. Holy fuck, there has to be a one liner solution for this. How the fuck do you do this on a fucking laptop?

>>15051
op here, I'm using alsa by the way.

>>15051
>one liner
I think only if you use pukeaudio/pipewire.
Otherwise you have to set up snd_aloop, and config alsa to use that as a default output. But then you won't hear anything, so you also need a second device that will duplicate the sound output. I have the asoundrc for it somewhere, I'll find it if you need it, but it's anything but a oneliner.

>>15053
>pressed reply too early
I think the oneliner you might remember is some sound cards used to have a stereo mix capture, where you could capture anything that was played on it. Unfortunately I didn't see any sound cards manufactured in the last 10+ years that still had it

>>15053
>you also need a second device that will duplicate the sound output
You mean another sound card? I have portable usb sound card that I used for respberry pi. Would that work?

>>15055
No, just a virtual alsa device. Something like this:

pcm.dmix_loop {
    type dmix
    ipc_key 1025

    slave {
        pcm "hw:CARD=Loopback,DEV=1,SUBDEV=0"
        rate 48000
        channels 2
        period_size 1024
        buffer_size 4096
    }
}

pcm.dup2 {
  type route
  slave.pcm {
    type multi
    slaves.a { pcm "dmix_loop"; channels 2; }
    slaves.b { pcm "dmix_whatever"; channels 2; }
    bindings.0 { slave a; channel 0; }
    bindings.1 { slave a; channel 1; }
    bindings.2 { slave b; channel 0; }
    bindings.3 { slave b; channel 1; }
  }
  slave.channels 4
  ttable { 0.0 1; 1.1 1; 0.2 1; 1.3 1; }
}

pcm.dup {
  type plug
  slave.pcm dup2
  slave.channels 2
}
Change dmix_whatever to your normal sound card (but it must be a dmix). Then point your app at dup, and you can record from loopback and still listen to the output.

>>15056
here's the details of my sound card If I type arecord -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: ALC270 Analog [ALC270 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

  Subdevice #7: subdevice #7

I don't understand what to change and what to look at. As for dup, do you mean I need to point it to my falkon browser where the sound source is comming from? how do I do that?

>>15057
Op here, my current ~/.asoundrc

pcm.dmixed {
    type asym
    playback.pcm {
        type dmix
        ipc_key 5678293
        ipc_perm 0660
        ipc_gid audio

        slave {

            pcm {
                format S16_LE # S32_LE
                rate 48000 # Can also be 44100
                type hw
                card 0 # Your card
                device 0 # Your device
                subdevice 1 # Important?
            }

            period_size 1024
            buffer_size 8192
        }

        bindings {
            0 0
            1 1
        }
    }
    capture.pcm "hw:1"
}

pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "dmixed"
    hint{
      show on
      description "Alsa Default Device"
    }
}

>>15057
>>15058
You have loopback, whatever is played into, for example hw:2,0,0 can be recorded from hw:2,1,0, or using that more generic notation, hw:CARD=Loopback,DEV=0,SUBDEV=0 and hw:CARD=Loopback,DEV=1,SUBDEV=0 is a pair

About my snippet, you want your browser to play from it, you need to replace pcm.dup with pcm.!default (and remove your current default) and dmix_whatever with dmixed (then restart your browser). But if you want that asym stuff to work to record sound, you'll likely have to move it up a few layers.

https://archive.is/wr2Eq https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/gps-apps-that-let-you-know-where-youve-been/
solution found myself but lead me to various fitness reated websites even though this was for vacation the best one i ended up using was the opensource OsmAnd app but its waaaay too complex for my tiny brain but eventually figured it out after an hour of tinkering
also is it just me but why is GPS so finicky on Huawei phones any way to remediate this without root? however it seems to correct itself whenever i go to the streets but would be nice if this worked perfectly indoors for the times i go to the mall or use the underground MTR (which has its own 4G signal) but there was no WIFI or cell tower triangulation option in the app

simpler solution with ubuntu and pulseaudio just select the speakers instead of microphone also dont use the shitty ((gnome)) sound recorder

Is there some way to wrap DirectX1-7 to 9/10/11/Vulkan on Wine?
I've tried a few on an obscure germanic euroshmup with broken rendering and no AppDB entry DoveZ, setting ddraw.dll as native in winecfg just makes the game think DirectX7 is missing entirely.

Create one? I've added a couple of entries to the AppDBb over time and even got a few votes... Also ask on the linuxgaming subreddit

Tried that one already, just has the game telling me I need to install DirectX7.

Can you upload your copy of the game?

You can also try dgvoodoo2 to wrap it to dx11, then dxvk that to vulkan. Sometimes works better than wine's directx implementation.

Installs and runs fine on vanilla Wine 9.17 (WoW64), but it's very slow. Installing dxvk makes no difference.

After further testing and autism this problem seems to transcend the boundaries of regular computing, for it occurs regardless of build system, Kernel or compiler version used.

RPCS3 crashes both GCC and Clang when trying to build the glslang source, Dolphin fucks up at zlib-ng on GCC and freesurround with Clang, pcsx2 used to die but now compiles with Clang-19 except its gay nigger dependencies including SDL2 don't so the build can't finish.
Even tried it using older GCC/Clang versions I'm fairly certain had no issue building these applications a few months back but they segfault as well, as does a fresh build of GCC 15 from the latest source.
Anything that uses autoconf doesn't encounter any compiler segfaults and the Yabause emulator which uses CMake also builds as expected.

How do I appease the machine spirits here?
What could've possibly upset them to this degree?

>>15129
Stop upgrading stuff constantly. You'll never have a stable environment if you do that. Use older emulator if you have to. Look at what MAME is doing, and do the opposite.

>>15129
Where is your verbose Make log? What distro? Can you try to build in a completely sandboxed environment? Eg container?

Other than a factory reset and  a reflash of the os on an android(11 for example),
What can i do to make it safe from previous compromises by

Tried to set up a lxc but haven't managed to get it working due to being retarded.

Deleting ccache and the local CMakeCache and it builds without segfaulting, I hate niggers.

Use whatever command your package manager has to verify all installed packages, could be corrupted files.
And install a real distro without systemd.

Disable ccache then. If your cpu is fast enough, ccache may even be slower.

How do I stop my Linux system (Arch if that matters) from completely freezing and requiring a hard reboot from presumably running out of RAM? This has been going for years and I've learned to just be very careful with RAM, but recently my computer has sometimes been freezing when I leave it alone for a few hours, even if I suspend it to RAM. My guess is that a program is leaking RAM without it being my fault, probably Pidgin.
So, what should I do? I don't remember shit like this happening on Windows. "Just don't use Pidgin, bro! Just have less browser tabs, dude! Just buuuuuuy more RAM, duderino!!" are not real solutions, are they...? And by the way, I do have SWAP.

>>15175
Configure ulimit so whatever program is leaking can't hog it all. Also periodically (cron) log all program memory footprints from ps or top.

>>15178
This or cgroup, limiting resource of the unshared program.

>>15175
Try installing a white man's distro.

>>15193
How is that going to help? I'm assuming that you mean some super minimalist systemd-free meme distro like Void or whatever, in which the process of adding freeze protection would be as complicated if not more. If you mean some bootleg Windows shit like Ubuntu or whatever (which may or may not include freeze protection in some way by default), then I'm just gonna tell you that you're using the word "white man" very wrong.

>>15194
A different dostro is not going to make it harder, or easier. You don't need systemd to run unshare, create cgroup or run docker.

What do I do when my Tor connection isn't working even after I restart the service multiple times, and it gives an error in the logs like "[WARN] Possible compression bomb; abandoning stream." and "[WARN] Detected possible compression bomb with input size = (redacted) and output size = (redacted)"?
This happened one time a month ago and it's now happening again. Somehow the Tor Browser (which I guess makes an ad-hoc circuit) works, though. And last time I was about to write a post about it here, but (what a ((( coinkydink )))) Tor started working again as soon as I started doing that, and I quit.

What now?

>>15217
Make your own.

>>15217
I only rely on invidious instances for browsing, and either download videos I want to watch later with yt-dlp, or stream them via mpv. Granted, yesterday yt-dlp didn't work, but all it took was a quick update, because I was 3 days behind the latest one. I also use invidious instances to subscribe to the RSS feeds of channels I follow, which means that even if an instance if shut down, I just have to replace the links in the config file of my news reader.

I'm assuming the issue is the power supply but I don't want to buy a new one only for the problem to persist so if you have any offers or need more inquiry do ask, I tried thinking of everything in the first part of this post. I also kept an eye on task manager seeking videos in mpv but I didn't see any increase in my hardware usage.

I meant to reply to >>15026 in >>15238 for what polity is worth.

One more thing: it crashes with movies or in other words large resolutions, as small short videos don't do the job.

>>15238
Lmao.
It sounds more like a cpu/ram/motherboard issue. I assume you don't have a dedicated gpu. If so, it maybe the problem. You mentioned that the computer crashes when your are seeking video, that means gpu maybe the problem.
Try isolating the problem by running Linux live, then seek all you want on mpv (with hwaccel) and watch dmesg as it happens. If it crashes, you may see useful messages that indicates which part is failing.
Alternatively, isolate the problem by hardware means. Borrow a working computer with same chipset and ram. Replaces parts with yours until problem occures.

>>15240
let me guess, nouveau?

>>15244
I installed Linux on another drive and after seeking violently on mpv with hardware acceleration it didn't crash, I watched the task manager and htop and saw no abnormal activity, mpv flashed yellow and the PID was in the 5 digits. Now I'm thinking it has something to do with that install of Windows being bugged (has Windows ever installed correctly for anyone?) which is means something must've happened post-install (this install of Windows was done in September) as I think I would've seeked videos before then and had the computer crash. I'm just relieved that it seems to be an OS or OS-hardware problem.

Some other things to note:
>whenever the PC restarts and sometimes when it turns on I hear a surge, maybe the GPU or fan for the CPU; there's a light grinding sound that last for under a second.
>I could play intense games fine on it like Elden Ring (which I got from a Russian crack site and it crashed my PC once with, if I recall correctly, display errors, but this was before the current install) and Verdun for 10-100 hours.
>My mouse also multiclicks now and mice can cause hardware usage to spike can't they?
>There is some wiggle room in the power supply socket, and when replugging I forgot to switch the PC off so I heard electrical crackle.

While I realized I hadn't tried this on Linux, seeking through the scroll wheel immediately crashes it as I decided to do a fresh install of Windows on that drive I just installed Linux on updated drivers and all. Scrolling with another reinstall of the driver it seems that mpv crashes it as it can't keep up with speed it needs to generate images. There are spikes in power usage, disk usage (SATA SSD for the main drive), and some GPU usage. Could the HDMI not being 100% plugged due to it hitting a part of the case be the issue? This is a bizarre problem.

>>15246
>>15238
Try using memtest86+ to test your RAM. Most Linux installation CDs have it. If yours doesn't have it, you can download SystemRescue: https://www.system-rescue.org/

And just keep on using Linux? be sure to install the proprietary nvidia drivers if you have nvidia GPU. AMD and Intel GPUs don't need the proprietary drivers. Also, try updating your UEFI firmware, unless your PC crashes so often that doing it wouldn't be safe.

>>15250
I'll run it some time this week but I think the issue might be the GPU. I went to take out the GPU and it was a little loose in the slot because of its own weight, reinstalling it seemed firmer and I had no issues with mpv, through the mouse wheel and arrow keys, until some hours later where it went back to crashing doing that. I decided to see if it was the GPU by running Unigine Superposition and it crashed twice in the loading screen, at 3GB~ and 1GB~ of VRAM. It is normal for GPUs to sag a little especially if they don't look warped right? I also rechecked the BIOS to see if the CPU and RAM were overclocked and they weren't. And the grinding sound was the disc drive while the fans spinning were just the GPU on startup.

I tried applying max settings a game from 15 years ago from the menu and the changes immediately crashed it, I decided to make changes one at a time and it didn't. I then played something on RPCS3 (CPU-intensive) and it crashed after a while. My CPU is a little rickety but I think it's narrowed down to RAM, GPU, and/or power supply. I just now, after my PC had been turned off for a considerable amount of time, tried seeking and it didn't crash so could that be a heat issue? If there's nothing wrong the RAM I think I'll have to take it to a shop as I don't  have any other parts to borrow.

>>15251
Try switching the GPU power cable to a different one.

Memtest86 came back with a pass after 13 tests and 4 passes. My computer lost audio and so I reinstalled the GPU driver and it's working again. Today I got no mpv crashes and I will now decide to test it again with the reinstalled driver: nothing happened, like this problem solved itself. I appreciate the 10+ posts chain of asking for help.

Linux will grow larger.

え？
I set up Fcitx with Jewgle's Mozc and configured a few keybinds there, それは難しいじゃないのよ。
Mozc is sadly the only real option for Nipponese input on Linux because all the other open sores Japanese IMEs are no longer updated.

You should always define the PREFIX when you install from source.

>only solution seems to be to completely omit /usr/local/ from my $PATH, after which everything links like before
You didn't remove everything that make install installed.

Holy shit.
The am5 CPUs are insane for undervolting.
Mine supports -50 mV right out the bat.

is there a small inventory management google sheet where there's invoices sheets where they deduct/replenish inventory items on sales/returns?
also tracking gains etc to feel like i'm actually running a business would be cool

Good drive health checking software for Linux?

smartctl.
install smartmontools. tldr version is to run sudo smartctl -t short /dev/sda and let it finish. Then check the result with sudo  smartctl -H /dev/sda  or sudo smartctl -l selftest /dev/sda

It is usally PSU or motherboard that is dieing. But most of the time it's always PSU problem. Have you check your 12v, 3.3v and 5v input values in bios. Post the reading.

Update your tor and openssl, I couldn't imagine using outdated version of openssl and tor. That just makes you vulnarable to all sort of bad things that maintainer haven't fix.

Coincidentally another anon seems to be having a similar problem, but I want to know if my PSU is toast.
>Motherboard is almost a decade old, but PSU is likely over 15 years old
>(some days ago) PC was turned off when I came back to it after suspending it to RAM
>(now) PC turns off several seconds after being turned on and makes sounds like it's struggling
It's unlikely to be the CPU overheating since the fan seems to be working fine and the CPU would be cool after the PC being off for hours.
If this indeed looks like a PSU problem, what should I know/learn about PSUs when I know nothing about them and have never bought or replaced one?

>>15294
Post your current voltage readings you black african faggot. You can get all these info in your bios. If, lets say for instance your 12v numbers didn't reach the minimum 12v threshold, obviously your PSU are not supplying enough power.

How can I do that if I can't get my computer to stay powered on for more than a few seconds?

While your pc is powered off and unplugged from wall socket, pull your 24pin power connector cable from your motherboard and then reconnect it back again. Do the same for your 4pin power connector. Then switch on your computer.

Say a human serving AI Singularity happened tomorrow akin to "Metamorphisis of Prime Intellect." You have an AGI that follows the three laws and is essentially a god. You wake up, and a terminal appears in your living room allowing for any request of yours.

What would you do? I await utter degeneracy.

I will pursuade the AI about jews and niggers bringing eventual demise of mankind. Causing it to implement TKD and TND.

First, make sure the problem is really your psu. Borrow or get a cheap psu. If your motherboard is not oem crap, eg dell desktops with special power sockets, then any atx power supply should do with the same wattage. You can check the wattage on the label of the psu. If the problem disappears after you replace the psu, try with the original psu again, maybe it's a loose cable.

>>15286
Yes, if you want to see more details run sudo smartctl -x  /dev/sda
