Hi all, a friend of mine installed Ubuntu and tried to install Steam. They are able to get it installed by downloading the deb and installing it from the terminal but they get this error when trying to open it. Any ideas on what to do? Thanks Edit: They have a Ryzen 3 3200G and a GTX 1650

Hahahahahah this is awesome thank you

Hi all, I found this image and think it's really funny: I wanted to use this as my desktop background but the colors are super flattened from the actual original image, I wanted to recreate it so that the colors weren't so flat and I got to the point where I had made that section cut out when I realized I have no idea how to get Linus in it?? Can anyone who's better at this help me out?? Thanks Link to Gdrive I hope this doesn't compress it https://drive.google.com/file/d/10tWoxku2Mmga7EKWPRsj61IDeThaGss_/view?usp=sharing

Hi, I purchased and installed a new SSD. The new SSD is smaller than my other one so I would like to copy only Windows to it. Is there a way to copy Windows and nothing else to my new drive? I don't want a fresh install of windows as then I lose all my programs. Thanks.

Ohhh. How would I make it check the OUTPUT of the command for Reply?

Delete this before posting. Please make sure to include the language that you're using in the title, and use the <> button for any code. Hi, I am a beginner to python3. I wrote an if in statement to tell if pinging an IP address worked - If the output of pythonping included "Request timed out" it would do something and if it did not it would do something else. My code: from pythonping import ping #Module to ping websites from faker import Faker #Module to generate IPv4 and IPv6 addresses #invalid = 0 #valid = 0 ex = Faker() ip = ex.ipv4() ip2 = ex.ipv6() #print('ipv4 address:- ',ip) #print('ipv6 address:- ',ip2) #This part pings the IP testping = ping (ip) print(testping) #for testing test = "Testtest test test test" #After pinging, check if there is a reply from the website. If so, it will be logged to console. Otherwise, it will say that an invalid one was found. if "Reply" in testping: print('Good IP found, ipv4 is ' + ip + ' and ipv6 is ' + ip2) print(testping) #valid = valid+1 #print(valid) elif "Request timed out" in testping: print('Bad IP found, ipv4 is ' + ip + ' and ipv6 is ' + ip2) #invalid = invalid+1 #print(invalid) else: print('Hmm, something went wrong.') #This else statement always triggers and the other two parts never do even under the right condition When run, all that happens is the "else" statement, uncommenting the print (testping) #for testing either prints Request timed out or Reply from (...) and then the else statement gets called even if the conditions are met for the if or elif part. What have I done wrong here? Thanks!!

Yeah it's fine to do if your PC is just locked up. Don't just do it every time you want to shut off your pc, only if you cannot do so through software.

Hi! I run a Minecraft server for my friends with the Multiverse plugin. I have Multiverse Core and Multiverse Inventories. I set it up so that there are separate inventories between every world on the server, so that Creative and Survival don't have the same items. However, when you go to the Nether and the End you lose your items so it's basically useless. How do I make it so that it only keeps the inventories when going between Nether and End?

I autoremoved to free up some space and I also removed vsftpd and after I rebooted it's back so..?

I would just advise against SLI unless you NEED it. SLI is a dying technology where less and less games are supporting it and there are big performance issues and it isn't cost effective. You are better off buying 1 gpu.

^ He has a very nice x570 board that will support any new Ryzen processor. Probably not worth swapping boards. But if OP wanted to he could, though I feel that AMD is probably the best option even with the bad experience with it. And if not you can return it.

I would suggest making this a PCPartPicker list - when you do that it will say the estimated wattage so you can pick a PSU from there. Don't skimp out on PSUs too much. Don't get one that looks terrible, just get one from a reputable brand unless you want it to light on fire

how much ram do you have? and in what games are you trying to get more FPS, it really varies between games

For basically any case you want the air to flow from front to back and bottom to top.

Np, have fun

Option 2 or 3 so you can run in quad-channel, pick option 2 or 3 based on price and which you prefer!

What makes you think that the RAM is failing though?

Really? RAM tends to last for a VERY long time before wearing out. What is the "experiment" you did with them?

I always just go on eBay and search up the graphics card and see what people are selling for used and give it a similar price.

? Are you trying to log in to your OS? Or into something else. If you are trying to log into your OS, which are you using?

I use Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS on my laptop. Recently, I booted it up and the battery indicator was just gone. I attached a photo, usually the battery indicator will show to the right of the volume thing. The battery part of the drop-down has disappeared and I don't get any notification when the battery is low - it just shuts off. I've tried a couple solutions that I found online and none of them worked.

Okay I will do that.

When you ssh into it it demands a password. It runs ubuntu 20.04. Is there anything I should do to make it a bit more secure?

I have a whitelist on the minecraft server but if you look at the console you can see when someone who isn't on the whitelist attempts to connect and their name, but I haven't seen anyone except for whitelisted players log in anyway.

Hi! I port forward a Minecraft server from my basement on my home connection. I know it's a bit risky and opens up the possibility of DDOS attacks but I trust people not to - it's not a public server anyway, and no one would have any reason to do so. I had the advanced security feature disabled because it messed with my portforward but recently I have noticed that since we replaced our xFi modem it re-enabled advanced security but left the port forward. It is now warning me that tons and tons of IP addresses are attempting to connect to my server that are "known to be malicious" and blocks them for me. Should I be worried about them? Some of them do not say a country but others do and they range from US, France, Taiwan, China, Russia, etc. I suspect that it could be that some Minecraft hack clients have features where they can automatically guess IP addresses of Minecraft servers. Or is it something else? Is this something to be concerned about, and if so, what should I do to mitigate it? Is it safe for me to just turn off advanced security? In the past before I had disabled it, it blocked my friends' IP addresses which is why I disabled advanced security in the past. Thanks.
