r/AskDocs•

Hi, I'm on vacation in a country with much higher average temperatures than what I'm used to.

I may have dismissed a slight headache as "probably didn't eat or drink enough" and decided to spend a few more hours on the beach waiting for everything to cool down so I can walk to a restaurant.

I know, that was stupid :|

My headache kept worsening and I eventually started feeling dizzy, upon which I gave in and decided to go back to my hotel room.

Even after having a few cool drinks and a cool shower my throbbing headache continues. I'm still slightly dizzy and I feel ill, but it's bearable.

Now, it hasn't worsened, but it has been at least a 3 hours and hasn't diminished either. Normall

r/pebble•

With the impeding doom of all pebble services, one of the few things I haven't seen is a mirror of the documentation for app development.

A quick Google search doesn't seem to come up with anything. Is there one yet?

Edit: DOOOOOM. Not room.

r/GalaxyS6•

I decided to try one of the various nougat ROMs and went to flash it. TWRP was installed just fine and I had been running a ROM already.

I accidentally deleted the zip before installing it - stupid me.

That's not too bad, I just used adb sideload to flash a fresh version - but unfortunately it seems my usb cable disconnected just as the installation started.

Now my S6 is stuck in the installer. I can't seem to turn it off, and since the battery is not removable I can't just pop it out.

Do I have to wait until my phone runs out of battery now, or is there some magic infallible way to turn off the phone?

Unfortunately Google doesn't give me much, as usual for android-related searches...

r/torrents•

Looking through my router logs I found some odd requests to the 14550 port. They are always dropped, but occur every few seconds. I routed them to my laptop and had a look at them through wireshark. They appear to be BT-DHT requests.

I seriously have no idea where these come from, nor do I know what on earth they are doing on that port. AFAIK that's not a standard torrent port.

After some reading through Bittorrent's documentation on this, I managed to find a few info hashes through get_peers requests that are very frequently requested. I also have a list of the nodes that requested them.

This is as far as I've managed to go though. I would

r/emacs•

As an absolute addict of documentation-driven design, the one thing I keep finding myself struggling with when coding in emacs is doc comments.

Especially python doc comments, when trying to follow the Google style guide, are very frustrating because it's almost impossible to indent them correctly by default.

Of course yasnippet does a good job at solving that with a little bit of setup. But it's a annoying if you switch between languages a lot - emacs' great strength is that it knows how to handle so many out of the box. I'd prefer not to spend 2-3 hours hacking a snippet before I can work.

There are a few language-specific packages, but they generally aren't very consistent and outdated

r/pebble•

I've been trying to wear my watch in bed to make use of the sleep tracking feature.

Unfortunately, after about a week of wearing my watch (taking it off for showers), I started developing a rash under it. That's when I realized that it's probably not very healthy to constantly wear something over an area of skin.

I've read that a lot of people here do wear their watches 24/7 though. So how do you handle this? Those of you who even wear their pebbles while showering, do you ever take off your watch? Apart from the medical issue, is this even hygienic?

r/buildapc•

tl;dr: My 3 year old LGA2011 board doesn't boot anymore, how do I get a working computer with an i7 3930k?

Sorry for not sticking to the default layout, but I don't feel this is going to work that way.

The problem

My build is actually almost 3 years old, and has been running completely fine for about a full year. Then I started running into a very odd issue - it would refuse to boot up randomly. I'd need to hold down the power button for a while to get any response, and the motherboard's button as well as trying to jump it didn't give me any better results.

All LEDs on the board are still glowing, and if it boots it runs perfectly fine. It just doesn't immediately react to the po

r/tasker•

I'd like to know if there is any way to get access to the Samsung Galaxy s6 edge's "edge" functions.

It has a few pretty neat built-in things, but the options are essentially just toggles. Specifically, I'd like to disable the sidebar in specific apps, and enable the edge night clock more naturally.

Secure settings only gives me access to the fingerprint lock as far as I can see.

Has anyone else found a solution for this?

r/linuxquestions•

My headphone's usb just broke and keeps sending volume up... Which is annoying to say the least.

I know I can disable the input through Xorg (and will for now), but that doesn't seem like the optimal solution. Is there a more low-level way to do this?

Edit: I managed to figure it out myself. Best way to do this is simply to unbind the device from the driver (keep in mind, this only works if the device only relies on USB for power, if it gets sound from there that will obviously prevent it from doing anything).

For testing just echo PORT_ID > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/unbind

If that doesn't have any unwanted side effects you're golden and you can add a udev rule akin to `SUBSYSTEM=="

r/linuxquestions•

Probably a stupid question, but I've been looking for an answer forever...

Do ttys "disable" each other? By that I mean, if one tty is currently active, can the other not continue?

I often work with two (running multiple X sessions), and whenever I do something on one that requires an internet connection or displays an animation it seems to have frozen when I come back. Which is extremely annoying, so I'd like to know if that can be avoided.

r/chrome•

There seems to be a 1px white border right under the toolbar. It's not noticeable when using brighter themes, but once you use a dark theme it becomes extremely obvious when you are viewing a page that is not fully white.

The theme creation guide mentions an "ntp_header", which supposedly affects a 1px border of some sorts, but it doesn't seem to be that one.

I have however seen themes without this border. This might be because that's several years ago, but I'm keeping my hopes up. Is there a way to recolor that border in a custom theme?

r/osugame•

The newest version appears to break with dotnet < 4.0, which means that it is a lot more difficult to get to run on Linux. I managed to get it to install, but unfortunately my client update seems to hang...

Has anyone else on Linux faced this? Has anyone yet been able to successfully run it on the latest version?

Edit: Apparently the current stable release does not work on wine. Use CuttingEdge (set the releasestream in osu!.cfg) if you are facing similar issues.

On another note, the cuttingedge release with .NET 4.0 seems to be running much better than when I used the ancient .NET 2.0, so that's great if you can look past the horrible installation :)

r/starboundservers•

I've been running a starbound server on my private linux server for a while now, and I've noticed that it eats about 1 gig of RAM idle. That's less than desirable, but I understand that it probably isn't that easy to avoid.

A solution for this would be to shut the server down completely when nobody is connected, and launch it whenever someone connects. This would occasionally cause someone to need to wait for connection for a second or 5, but generally just spare my server's resources for other, slightly more important services when the starbound service is not in use.

Good thing I'm using Linux and have already implemented a [systemd unit](http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/s

r/osugame•

I'm trying to find a few osu steam banners (the big link pictures that you can set for custom apps, visible in big picture or grid view), but I can't find any that tickle my fancy.

Any suggestions? For anyone else searching, here are a couple I got from the steambanners page, I'll update this with any others I find:
