When this happens have you or can you run this "sudo service network-manager restart"
 
Other info that can help what is the wifi hardware info "lspci -nnk | grep -A2 0280" (guessing that as it is a laptop you are on wifi)
When you lose your Internet how do you get back online? 
 
Troubleshooting is always fun
 

Most every motherboard has a usb header. Yours will definitely have one. They're usually along the bottom or right edge with the i/o on your left.

Theoretically you could but nobody has really tried it. 

So what you're saying is, there's a chance?

Very simple because its much more readily available for PC users to play pirated games. Always will be more money in console's for that reason alone, closed proprietary system that involves more steps on the end-user part to use pirated content. And the initial cost of the console itself and how simple it is to setup for the average consumer. Things like steam has helped out a lot though with people actually buying games. 

because console peasants don't have much variety, so instead of buying those PC gamers play MMOs and games like CSGO.

When you have over 3000 posts on a tech forum....

Moment when friends never get around to showing the insides of their pc's. 

When I was able to by pass my schools Firewall without the use of a proxy.

It's an engineering miracle how the keyboard is so slim, but at what expense of comfort. The whole keyboard+mousepad thing is just plane trash.

I've actually had this problem once. shotdown the PC, unplug the hard drive and boot into the BIOS. Reset the BIOS to it's defaults and shutdown and plug in the hard drive back in and boot the computer.

How illegal would it be to,
Obtain a moderators log in information(NOT ON LINUS TECH TIPS, on a site that I use)
Use the account to delete posts on the site,
Remove their experience etc.
Also, if it were to cause the site to crash from the immense stress of a mass deletion is that illegal?
 

Anyone know the best place to buy used/refurbished gaming desktops

Hello!
 
I was wondering if I connect a Blu Ray player (like this one) would it work with my PC? I know it probably does but I want to make sure. 

geez, my mistake guys, my CPU power connector is an 8-pin

Just means, you what mate? Somebody says, "I'm going to steal your cookies" and you reply with a challenging attitude "You what mate?" Sort of the american version of "The fuck you mean?"

A good place for evenyone to list their best joke they made to non-techy people.
 
Here I start: Told my girlfried that flipping her laptop will make the screen auto-rotate to stay in the right position.
She actually did it (We were on skype, so I saw the webcam go upside down) and the expression of disapointment on her face was priceless
 
Did the same thing with my sister two days after. This joke is the best hahahahahaha

Thought it would be fun to make a topic about, all of our experiences with all the people, who doesn't really understand all the tech.
Note: Don't make this too harsh on them. You need to help them, not yell at them.
I'll go first:
So my mom has a daycare. And one day I am sitting on the floor with my laptop. And one of the kids, with real dirty hands come and put his hand on the screen. Guess he thought it was a touch screen. Still haven't gotten it off, and it was 3 months ago.
My grandmother is scared of getting rid of the computer, because she thinks it will cut the power to her house.

Thanks for the help!

thanks for the snappy reply(and not looking down at me cuz i don't know this stuff)

I don't have this issue, then again, I never actually manually installed the drivers for my F710, I just let windows 10 do it for me and it installed the Xbox 360 controller drivers for it, instead of the Logitech ones.
But, according to what others with the same controller and this same issue in Dark Soul, the solution they followed was to essentially install the Xbox 360 drivers, use a custom inf file to make it recognize the F710 and install that.

Don't you all see how it is advancing us forwards along with taking us two steps back?
People have become dependent on phones, mostly younger folk, i don't mean important stuff, i mean social, people will rather text or chat on a phone than actually arrange to see each other.
People don't know how to live or what to do when their power goes out for a couple of days, the end of the world may as well be that.
 
 
On the other hand medicine has come a long way thanks to technology, so has entertainment, but i somehow feel that the nitty gritty part (hard work) is something we all need, when it is taken away we seem to become used to a lazier life, one that creates bad habits.
 
 
Or am i just mental?
 
 

Not that I know off, that's not to say it's illegal though, although property owners and security guards can ban you from the premises. Should you return, you would be trespassing.
 
And a police officer seized a weapon from some trash without a warrant and it was ruled as a legal so... At best, it's a grey area.

well i lerned how to by first watching every video Linus and JayzTwoCents released over 2 years(lol) and then i got an opertunity to go grab an absolute TON of old computer hardware so i teard apart about 10 computers, stealing RAM, CPUs and heatsinks + fans. after that i watched some more videos for about 2 months, orderd my parts and after that i knew what to do basicaly

Are the drives plugged into the "best" SATA ports they will work in any but it is usually best to have the Boot drive in Port 0 etc.
Is memory better as one large module or two smaller ones or...
Cooling might be easily accomplished by three fans but will two here and here do the job or would four here, here, here and here running at slower speeds be quiter but just as efficient ?
