so lets just say, i start to pay 8€ per month for a seedbox on rapidseedbox.com, do i install OBS and the RTMP tool there, yeet the 7-8 locations with stream keys in it etc pp, and then it will suck their 48MB per second upload as long as i want?

That sounds plausible, though the only thing I could see being a roadbump is if the seedbox has some kind of ToS restriction for something that might use more processing like streaming. Is the seedbox cheaper than the restream.io cost? Because of course if the seedbox doesn't just work flawlessly, you gotta wrestle with it until it does, and time is expensive to waste :)

restream.io wants 15 bucks for 5 platforms and 41 bucks for 8 platforms, and a credit card which i do not have.

How to debug an old motherboard that doesn't make beeps? I have an ASRock Z97 Pro4 with i5-4460 CPU. The problem is that the PC powers on (CPU gets hot, fans spin, HDDs spin), but nothing shows up on the monitor, the monitor doesn't even get a connection from the mobo. I tried disconnecting all components except CPU, CPU Fan, RAM, HDD without success.

When I power the machine on without a vital component like RAM, there are no beeps, so I can't understand where the problem is coming from.

I know the PC worked before, but I kept it in a box for about a year and my goal is to make it work again.
Edit: I've tried resetting the CMOS battery and checking if the mobo is connected to the PSU correctly, but nothing changed.

Had no video from my old school pc with dgpu. Apparently it was set to integrated graphics only in bios. Might with be that your mobo sets to dgpu only for video for some reason.
You can find cheap low end gpus for troubleshooting from dumps/recyclers or online marketplaces.

Hello everyone. I'm back again. This time I'm working on a small sqlite3 project and I'm currently trying to create a trigger to calculate age

I have two tables, "patients" and "visits"
idfirst_namelast_namedobaddresscitystatezip
1JaneDoe1980-01-01123 Easy WayNew YorkNew York12345

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS"patients" (
"id" INTEGER NOT NULL,
"first_name" TEXT NOT NULL,
"last_name" TEXT NOT NULL,
"dob" TEXT NOT NULL,
"address" TEXT,
"city" TEXT NOT NULL,
"state" TEXT NOT NULL,
"zip" INTEGER,
PRIMARY KEY("id")
);

idvisit_idpt_age

CREATE TABLE "visits"(
"id" INTEGER NOT NULL,
"visit_id" INTEGER NOT NULL,
"pt_age" TEXT,
PRIMARY KEY("visit_id"),
FOREIGN KEY ("id") REFERENCES "patients" ("id")
);

This is the trigger I have so far, and it's probably wrong
CREATE TRIGGER "pt age"
AFTER INSERT ON "visits"
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO "visits" ("pt_age")
SELECT (strftime('%Y', 'now') - strftime('%Y', "dob")) - (strftime('%m-%d', 'now') < strftime('%m-%d', "dob")) FROM patients
JOIN "visits" ON "visits"."id" = "patients"."id"
WHERE "patients"."id" = "visits"."id";
END;

Honestly the SELECT statement I copied and pasted from another site on how to calculate dob. Originally I tried
"SELECT date('now") - "dob" FROM patients" and so on.
The idea I have is that when I put in the id in the visits table, it will call the dob from the patients table and calculate age. I keep getting a "Runtime error: datatype mismatch (20)" when I try to run it. I have tried changing the data types for both pt_age and dob and the code I just pasted and it still keeps throwing that error code. It calculates the correct number when I type in "SELECT date('now') - '1980-01-01' so I *think* it has something to do with the column type, but I'm not sure. Does anyone know where I went wrong? Thanks!

I wasted too much time yesterday trying to find an RSS feed of a (free) Spotify podcast. It looks like they break up and load 1 minute MP3s; there must be a way to snag full episodes...

If you're on Android it could be worth trying AntennaPod (I personally used the F-Droid repository instead). I've only used it for some podcasts so far but it seems to have everything I've looked for and has a nice UI to use.
 
So my computer is dead...ish.
It's a stationary and I suspect that the PSU crapped out and I would like to try to confirm that.
When I unplug the power and start the computer there's a split second of a red light on the motherboard then nothing.
I have flipped out the CMOS battery, unplugged/reseated/removed everything, changed the CPU etc.

Paperclip test on the PSU gives no fan spin, but I didn't have paperclip so I improvised.

I think it's the PSU but I'm worried that it's the mobo. Any thoughts?

He's dead, Jim.

e: if you have another PSU (even underpowered) that you can cannibalize out of a different computer you can see if the mobo's still good. just turn it on (bridging +PWR and -PWR with a screwdriver) with no RAM installed and see if you get angry beeping.
 
@Null Sorry to bother dear feeder. Session collision because of VPN? Gayops? I don't have socks on KF.

Had to switch to TOR for the first time ever since the LJF crusades, can anyone tell me how i set it that it keeps the site zoomed in in each tab? And remove the borders? I haven't used this version of TOR before.

That's an anti fingerprinting measure that stardardizes resolution to avoid fingerprinting. I don't have it in front of me, but look for something about anti fingerprinting in settings.

I have no familiarity with SQLite triggers and the date formatting syntax it uses, but:
  1. I would put a 'visit date' column in the [visits] table and calculate age at time of visit based on 'visit date' - 'patient age' instead of storing patient age at time of each visit. You could default the value in that column with a default constraint to the current datetime. A view could allow the easy calculation of 'patient age' for reports.
  2. It looks like you're using a AFTER INSERT trigger on [visits] to insert data into the same table [visits], rather than updating the record that was just added. i.e. you're not 'overriding' the way the insert on the table works (this is not possible in most database systems for tables, it can only be done for views (with INSTEAD OF triggers)), you're just doing something after the insert has happened. Given that the action is an insert into the same table, I would expect that to fail in an unusual way (as the alternative to failure could be infinite recursive inserts).
  3. When you're inserting into [visits] in the trigger, you aren't specifying the id, which is specified as not nullable, so I assume that will fail. Assuming that you can have a self-affecting AFTER INSERT trigger in SQLite, that updates rows in the table that you've just inserted data into, you would instead want to be doing an UPDATE [visits] .... WHERE id = NEW.id or something like that.

I'm thinking about switching from Brave to some version of Firefox, because the retards at Google keep making Chromium worse. Any recommendations for which fork to use? I've heard good things about Librewolf and Floorp. Thought I'm a bit worried about Floorp since it's apparently just one guy doing 90% of the work.
 
Does anyone have experience with new Brother printers? The HL-L2400D in my specific case. My old brother printer died after 20 years so i decided to just buy another basic bare bones one. After it shipped i stumbled on the new hell that is modern printers. I order some 3rd party toner from v4ink and had assumed it would just work. But it seems the toner has a chip now and Brother likes to lock out 3rd party stuff.

Does anyone have a modern brother laser printer and know if 3rd party toner still works?
