What's the closest I can get to replicating FT Deep Dark in the latest version of Firefox?

I made the mistake of updating because I heard it would unfuck adblock and all of my other add-ons/extensions and now I'm stuck coping with this hideous looking bullshit for the time being. If anyone has the Deep Dark theme file lying around and would be willing to upload it that'd be great too since I wouldn't mind downgrading and finding a workaround instead either. I can't find that shit online anymore because Mozilla took it down from their add-ons site.

idk. there are issues on their github page that match your error message. the solution they give is to install libpng, but all the posters are running ubuntu. The emu build for ubuntu is compiled using libpng12. So the version from opensuse might be using a different version of libpng, or your issue might be something totally different.

Seems previous versions of stuff aren't available on the openSUSE Emulators repo, but yeah, the issue is on both the front end and terminal. m64py will complain about not finding the core library and on the terminal it complains about some hex value in libmupen64plus2.

>> No.70853183

When browsing for the library file in m64py however, I can see the link to libmupen64plus.so.2.0.0, but not the actual library file itself. It's there if I go check in the terminal or file explorer, but it seems the actual library itself is not recognized.

It looks like a binary file of some kind, but what is needed to actually read it? Am I missing some path to whatever language it is compiled in?

>> No.70853347

you're probably not going to see it in the file select menu because it's looking for .so.2 files. You could probably see it if you change "Types of file" to all at the bottom of the file select dialog.
the links to libraries with .so.2 or whatever are nothing special, a lot of libraries do that to control versions.

m64py uses qt, python and shit, not to mention all the libraries mupen64 uses. so it could be just a mismatch of libaries used between any of those components.

the original error message of "undefined" signal suggest that something was compiled with a different library in mind.

>> No.70853364

I just tried rebuilding the source rpm (mupen64plus) from the repo, but it complains about failed dependencies: freetype2, libpng, samplerate, sdl2. All of which are provided by some differently named package.

Pretty much everything supports MP4 and most big browsers support WebM (you'll just alienate IE and Safari users).
The most common video coding formats MP4 supports are AVC, HEVC and AV1. For WebM it's VP8, VP9 and AV1.
The king for high bitrate encodes (not that good for low ones). Best compatibility.
Currently the best option for low to moderate bitrates. Unfortunately nothing but Safari supports it by default.
It's shit. Don't bother.
Worse than HEVC (mainly because libvpx is a shit encoder; haven't tried SVT-VP9 yet), but better than AVC for low to moderate bitrates and in contrast to HEVC it's supported by most big browsers.
Currently provides the best compression, but it's still far too soon to be usable. Even though it already has great browser support for its age (FF, Chrome and some of their derivatives), encoding is still slow and there's no hardware support yet.

To summarize: Use WebM with VP9 if you really want to crush the bitrate or MP4 with AVC for best compatibility.

In SQL you can a number that is either 1 or 0. If you use a numerical data type that can have values besides 0 and 1 (ie. I, long or double etc) it will allocate more memory than necessary, you only need one bit for a boolean.

The desktop is actually just a folder (ie explorer.exe process) but with additional GUI bling. It's going to automatically refresh itself whether you want it to or not, especially when a new folder/shortcut is created or you reorganize the desktop in general.

However in some cases explorer.exe is going to be a nigger and not auto-refresh so you must manually do it to ensure changes applied or new folders/shortcuts are reflected on the desktop.

I would personally play it safe, nuke the SSD with 0s, and install a fresh copy of W10. If you're changing MBs the OS hardware settings/drivers installed might not play nice on the new MB.

explorer.exe has been a pain in the ass ever since it was breathed into life in W95. Crashes, freezes, BSODs were rampant back in the day. It has been vastly improved since then but in bloated/celery systems it can still malfunction so i'd be pretty stupid for microsoft to remove a simple shortcut that can help fix those ailments.

like, if i set to disable all incoming connections on my router firewall, shouldnt that include 80/443?

lets say i have a service running on my LAN, and i want it to expose it to the wan, i just open ports of that service, unidirectional? like LAN --> WAN ? or i need to do it both ways?

i have a bitwarden setup on my rPI (port 5000) i would need to portfoward

If you have a server and want to open just a couple ports, your iptables config will look like this:

"Allow all outgoing packets"
"Allow all related/established incoming packets"
"Allow incoming packets to these ports"

You allow outgoing and incoming related so that operations like "update my packages" don't fail; an outgoing http request requires a response.

Well, here's what happens when you connect to something over TCP on port 80:
>your computer generates a random port, like 31337
>your computer sends a TCP SYN packet from its port 31337 to port 80 of whatever server you're connecting to
>the packet reaches your router/firewall
>your router/firewall logs this in a table so it knows that any packets it receives on port 31337 should be passed through the firewall to your computer
>once the connection times out, your router removes the port mapping from its table
(Disclaimer: I am not a network professional, just a programmer, and this may not be entirely accurate or complete.)
The server you're connecting to does not need to reach your port 80. It only needs to "establish an incoming connection" with you on some random port, which you generate, and which your firewall is aware of and should automatically make an exception for.

Yes. The point of a firewall is usually to protect YOU from the outside world. Any program or service running INSIDE your LAN should (in general) be able to send packets to wherever the fuck it wants.

>bitwarden setup on my rPI
You just need to forward tcp/5000 from the WAN side to the LAN side, and make sure that your rPI isn't restricted from sending packets out.

That's not the underlying issue, just a symptom (Windows wanted to page some shit out to make space for all of that cached data, but couldn't).

This is an insane question. Motherboards are not all the same fucking thing. They are specifically built for one or more CPU models and cannot work with anything else. Each model has its own hardware and firmware requirements - boards don't even support two generations of CPUs with the same socket nowadays.

What format of book are you trying to convert? Calibre is the gold standard for this kind of thing, optionally coupled with Apprentice Alf's DeDRM plugin if you need to strip some copy protection.

You'd probably want:
-AMD Ryzen APU, you probably want a Ryzen 5 2400G, but the Ryzen 3 2200G could work
-16GB RAM, pick the speed that goes with the chip you bought. For both chips above it's DDR4-2933.
-An SSD for the operating system, 256 GB minimum
-HDDs for trans-pacific moving picture storage
-A motherboard that supports the chip you bought, the two chips above are socket AM4, so most any socket AM4 motherboard will work. Make sure it is sized ATX or micro ATX (more than 99% of them are). Make sure the motherboard's video out ports are compatible with your monitors (so if you have a DVI monitor and the motherboard only has HDMI, then you'll have to buy an adapter).
-An ATX case (more than 99% of them are)
-A good power supply, you don't need more than 300 watts. Go look at the connectors part of the specs and make sure it has a 20+4 connector and a 4+4 connector, this means it works with any usual ATX motherboard.

>> No.70866438

Hmm, well, when you say "custom allocator" you don't necessarily have to mean "something like the system malloc".
Games, for instance, often use per-frame linear arena allocators: values are allocated by incrementing a pointer and the whole arena is "freed" every frame. Much faster than a general purpose allocator but a lot less flexible.
If you do mean "something like the system malloc", then I imagine the main benefit is predictability rather than performance.

>> No.70867719

It depends. If you use a lot of external libraries or plan on writing a library you can't really propagate exceptions (afaik?) that well.
You would know what circumstances arise sometimes that's why you can catch them. Sometimes the part you're working on doesn't have the capability to do anything about it, though.
I think of exceptions as an extra return code. Like in C you will find a lot of functions that take a pointer and return an error code. If everything goes right, it modifies the pointed data, and returns 0 or whatever. If something goes wrong you return some error code.
Well what if you want to return some data instead? What if something bad happens, you can't just return an error code because it could be seen as valid data. So you can throw an exception instead.
What if you were dealing with a very complex object that was built in a very complex way? You might not even know the types of shitty ways it can break. What if it breaks while you are editing it and it's out of scope of your function to know how to deal with that? You can just propagate the exception without knowing anything about it, and maybe a better function will capture it.
