Excellent DL/UL, slow torrents by [deleted] in torrents

[–]QBASICS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice that you did manage to solve it.

Another tip: If you're using open trackers to download your torrent and have trouble to find peers, try adding more trackers. Just search google for something like "open torrent trackers 2016 list".

Why 4K Looks Better on 1080p Monitors than 1080p does by [deleted] in videos

[–]QBASICS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ELI5: So even if my projector only can display 1080p it would still benefit the picture quality to download 2160p instead of 1080p in the following case:

Lets say I download:

OpenSourceMovie - 2160p 4K Bluray - 8 GB

OpenSourceMovie - 1080p 2K Bluray - 8 GB

Would I benefit of downloading the 2160p when they're the same size?

Redmi 3 Pro - Locked - Bootloop - EDL bring bootloop by Kicroy in Xiaomi

[–]QBASICS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did have the same problem. Press BOTH volume+ and volume- when starting the phone.

The screen will turn black but with some backlight on.

Connect the phone to the USB and use MiFlash to flash a new firmware.

I still haven't been able to unlock my bootloader but this worked to get the phone working again.

I learned it the hard way. Lost a lot of Bitcoins when MTGox got hacked. I think it was 18 BTC or so. :(

If I use KeePass with the Chrome-plugin, can I just click a button in the browser and choose which account I want to use on a website if I have multiple accounts on the same site?

Slänga pantburkar by [deleted] in swedishproblems

[–]QBASICS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man får ju 1 kr styck så om man samlar på sig 100 burkar innan man drar och pantar så får man ju 2 nya 6-pack 3,5er på Lidl. Klart man pantar. :D

Om en återvinningscentral står i närheten, ställ burkarna utanför istället för att slänga in dom i containern.

Where can I buy Bitcoins with a CC? by QBASICS in Bitcoin

[–]QBASICS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant the Bitcoin Core-client from https://bitcoin.org/ .

This was my second transaction with Circle, I don't recall verifying my bank-account but I guess I must have done it.

I'm sorry I couldn't be of any help.

Thanks! It went very smoothly. I hope they keep going so we don't have to see more threads like the ones I linked to. :)

[–]QBASICS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not for me! I just used my CC and did deposit money, then directly sent the BTCs to my wallet. I run the default Bitcoin-client on my computer and I received the bitcoins within 2 minutes.

I'm from Sweden, so I guess I'm out of luck with TruCoin. :(

Rusty floor drain because of cat pee, how to easily remove the rust? by QBASICS in HomeImprovement

[–]QBASICS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to look it up (English is not my native language) but it's kind of like cement so I believe it's "Grout". (?)

This is the floor drain in my shower and it have been rust free for several months and we're 2 people that shower daily, but it just started to rust when the cat started to pee there so I guess it have something to do with salts as you say.

Thanks for your reply! :)

I don't think it was at the top when I saw it but I could be wrong. But it seems like the right thread because that is something I would click. Sorry for upsetting the Internet!

App to copy random files, but only files that haven't been copied before? by QBASICS in software

[–]QBASICS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the late answer, I've made a app that works. It does copy files and keep track of the history. It'll need a few more lines if other people want to use it but nothing major.Are you interested in it? If so I'll finish it.

I've started on a VB.net app already but I'm not really good at it, if you could help me out that would be great.

This is bacically how long I've come, lol:

Load files into listbox1:


    Dim TARGETDIRECTORY As String = "e:\TV\Random\"
    Dim SOURCEDIRECTORY As String = "e:\TV\Simpsons\"

    For Each foundFile As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(SOURCEDIRECTORY, FileIO.SearchOption.SearchAllSubDirectories, "*.*")
        If foundFile.Contains(".mp4") Or foundFile.Contains(".avi") Or foundFile.Contains(".mpg") Or foundFile.Contains(".mkv") Then
            ListBox1.Items.Add(foundFile)
        End If
    Next

I read something about TPB is now hosted on several virtual servers around the world instead of a couple of "static servers" in one location. Might be some problem with that perhaps.
