  1. Hmm, just saw a youtube tutorial of how to change its thermal paste and while it doesn't seem that hard, I'd rather not in case I fuck it up since it's not my laptop. Maybe I could clean it but still, probably the problem will persist.
  2. I see. Yea well, then I wouldn't like to make her spend money on something that might not work. So, could it be dirt that's also affecting it? I bet that macbook was never opened at all.
  3. Hmm, not even a little? In my experience it did. For example in my crappy laptop I used to have 6 GB and all would be super fine. For some reason a module stopped working and I had to replace it. Now with 4GB it feels ugly, even just running Spotify and Notepad++ alone. Also, in here laptops are way too expensive, due to our economy + lots of taxes.
  4. Thanks for answering That's good enough for me. I will try to get something as identical as possible to what comes in there. Btw, I have RAM installed on my main pc with different timings and so far it works, even tho it's wrong
  5. Hello there, I'd like to ask this simple questions but I don't know if this is the right section, even though I see others users post here, so here we go. My friend has this Macbook Pro (13 inch, Mid 2012) which comes with 4GB of RAM. As everyone knows, nowadays it's not that much (I consider 6GB should be a minimum) and it's starting to be noticed. Tasks she used to carry out normally (such as Photoshop, AutoCAD, light gaming like CS:GO or LoL) started to feel like a bit of a heavy load for the system, so I suggested her a RAM upgrade. The thing is, I wrongly assumed her laptop would have just one stick of 4GB, but after digging out a little, turns out it has two modules of 2GB each running on dual channel. So, my concerns are: 1. Would any good 4GB (1600 MHz) module work with her laptop or does she need a specific brand/model for it to work? Because I don't know if Apple requires that. 2. Given that any module works, would there be any problem if she runs two different sticks? At least for a while, maybe she's getting another 4GB stick in the future. In my experience, in a normal PC/Laptop there is no problem, but you know, it's Apple... Which btw, I have no experience with their laptops/computers and this would be the first time I upgrade one.

  7. Is nicky v going to be there too? if so, can you host a cooking contest between him and dennis? thanks
  8. So, what should i replace it for? Because I'm asked to check if that condition is true in order to print something.
  9. Hello, I got a little problem with an if condition in Pascal. If you're wondering why in Pascal, it's because in my first year of college they teach us Pascal (idk why tho). The program is something like this: program activity1; var species: integer; zone: 1..50; locality: 1..25; begin readln(species); readln(zone); readln(locality); (later in the program) if((zone >= 1) and (zone <= 10)) and ((locality = 3) or (locality = 8) or (locality = 9)) then writeln('Species code ', species, ' belongs to the South.'); and I get the following warning: activity_1.pas(58,13) Warning: Comparison might be always true due to range of constant and expression The activity asks us to read some stuff, which we can find these, expressed like this: "zone code(1..50), locality zone(1..25), species code, etc,". The thing is, we must send the program perfect with no warnings nor issues, and I'm getting this. I don't know if I explained well but I hope it was enough. If you can help me, I'll be thankful. I can't find what's wrong, I hope you can. Thanks for reading.
  10. My little Decimal to Binary coded in Java (I just started learning Java and I'm in the first year of Computer Science). [code] package decimaltobinary; import java.util.Scanner; /** * * @author juanp */ public class DecimalToBinary { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Please, write a number and then press Enter.\n"); Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); int number = input.nextInt(); int result; int remainder[]; remainder = new int[16]; remainder[0] = number % 2; result = number / 2; if(number <= 255) { for(int i = 1; i < 8; i++) { remainder[i] = result % 2; result = result / 2; } System.out.println("You chose the number: "+number); System.out.println("Which in binary is: " +remainder[7] +remainder[6] +remainder[5] +remainder[4] +remainder[3] +remainder[2] +remainder[1] +remainder[0]); } else if(number >= 256) { System.out.println("ERROR: The max number possible in this type is 256."); } } } [/code]
  11. Hello? Can anybody help me?
  12. Yes, I know. But I don't wanna use an old distro. I would like to use Ubuntu 16.04 with the new AMDGPU-PRO drivers.
  13. Hello, people who use to stick around here. I'd like to ask you for some help to solve a little issue I've been facing since some months ago. In my pc, besides Windows 10, I got Ubuntu 16.04. As some of you know, something called fglrx (or something like that, I never remember the name and I'm lazy to google it) is not supported anymore since this version. Due to that, AMD released a new brand of video drivers, the AMDGPU-PRO. The thing is that, it support several cards, but guess what? It doesn't support mine. It even supports the R7 350 and an OEM version of mine (I think), the R9 360. i've tried to install it both on Ubuntu and Linux Mint (which I heard, it's based on Ubuntu, which is based on Debian), I tried several kernels, from 4.8, to 4.11. I've gotten a better response, to say it so, with kernels 4.9 and 4.11, which showed me a warning saying that my system is running in low graphics mode, but after closing that window again, it pops up again and I won't be able to use the system until I uninstall the drivers. I'd like to solve this problem because nowadays I'm interested in the world of Linux and the open source software, but I'd like to game on it, as I do on Windows. For example, with the open source drivers, on Mint 18, I could play CS:GO totally fine, but I can't now, I got like 40 fps max on the lowest settings, thing that didn't happen before and that, on Windows, I can get up to 200 fps on the maximum settings possible. To end this topic, I'd like to say that I already researched everywhere in Google, like 5 times minimum during the last months and found nothing useful, so if any of you know how to solve this, I'd really appreciate your help. Thanks you in advance, and an apologize for my basic englando.
