>>15465 Whenever I need to scrape something I use a Python script. I load and parse the site's HTML (as a browser would) and extract whatever I need to. I mostly just scrape texts and pictures, though.

>>15530 Yes, but in this case that won't work because of the security in this site. It seems to be keeping track of connections and getting your script's connection to a state where the site will allow it to request the resources seems like a headache, it's not a simple POST to receive cookies or something easy like that. That's why I wanted to just use a browser to get the connection there and then script on top of the browser to do the fetching reusing the browser state.

>>15578 >browser state I seem to remember it being possible to specify additional information to your request with a (Python) script, by explicitly changing the request headers, and making it "pretend" you're sending your request through a browser, as in (copied from stackoverflow of course) import requests url = 'http://www.goatse.cx' headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/39.0.2171.95 Safari/537.36'} response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)

Hey anons, I have a question about my ssd health. Mainly the programs that show health. Two programs show my ssd at 10%, but two others show it at 4%. Which ones should I believe?

>>15584 Read how many TB writes have occured, check the manufacturer's site for what the expected number is, and make an empty partition of 10% the drive capacity. Otherwise any credible ssd has its own repair checks happening to the nanites independently of anything you can do, as long as it has occasional power it'll be fine.

>>15585 That's the weird thing. I've had it for four and a half years. It's my main c drive that I cloned to from an old hdd. It's a 500gb seagate barracuda. So far I've written 23.6tb to it and it has a total TBW of 249tb. Other than the low health it's fine. Did I get a dud or is the info just displaying wrong, or do ssd's as main boot drives wear out this quick? My game ssd that I've been using for 5 years is still at 98%. This is the first time using ssd's as well so it's confusing to me since I was very late to start using them.

>>15589 I don't really know either then, you can check to make sure defragmentation is off since that is detrimental, but even that is just normal writes. It's either a bug with the drive health firmware which deems nanites bad the same way disc drives have bad sectors, or something caused the nanites to fail fast, probably from the factory.

is it just me or is the default looooonix CPU frequency driver dogshit, at least for AMD? I have a AMD Zen 2 system, acpi_cpufreq is the default; yet it provides only 3 P-states that are all very near topping out the frequency. if I didn't manually pull it down with my own scripts it'd be running near full throttle at the lowest P2 state which defaults to 2.2GHz, 900mV @ ~30A all the fucking time, even when idle. (relatively) obscure kernel parameters are required to load the AMD-designed driver at all.

>>15637 Probably, but the amount of effort required to take perfect care of a battery probably saves you a few dollars, and is not worth bothering with if you value your time.

Is there a yt-dlp equivalent for downloading images from booru's?

Is there a way to change the function of my Esc key from "Please stop all downloads and scripts🥺" to "Stop all downloads and scripts."?

>>15784 What the fuck are you talking about?

>>15787 Open a dodgy website and it takes a certain amount of time to load and then it does a bunch of other shit you may not want it to do. Naturally the first choice is to press Esc but then the browser goes "Um, it says here I was supposed to do all this other stuff so that's what I'm gonna do." and loads a shitload of ads, videos, viruses and whatever other awful shit that at the very least fills up me RAM.

What is a good program for windows 10 for viewing pdfs?

>>14198 Use Tor Browser. >>14971 I'm fairly certain that they don't. They used to store the messages/pictures as a file on recipients phone even after they said they "deleted" it (meaning they just hide the messages and pictures from their app). >>15784 You want something like NoScript or use uBlock Origin to block JabbaShit.

>>15637 Not at all. I assume that shitty marketing material is about battery life, i.e. how long your battery can run on a single charge. With lithium batteries, small discharge-recharge cycles around the mid-state-of-charge point are best. If you keep your battery cool, it will degrade less over time. Lastly, the faster you charge, the greater the capacity loss, so avoid any kind of fast-charge gimmicks.

Oh boy, a month since the last comment. I'll still ask because I likely won't be able to find anyone with the knowledge to answer anywhere else. I need to know all of the places where nVidia graphics drivers are stored when installed in Windows. I have to manually remove all of these files by removing a boot drive and mounting it externally. No, I cannot use DDU. The screen is black. No, I cannot use safe mode. The screen is black. No, I cannot boot from a Windows install USB. The screen is black. I just need to know where the files are so I can manually delete them. Any chance of this? Thanks.

>>16325 I assume it's not in your Program Files folder as they would have their own NVIDIA folders in them but not the drivers. >C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository <where Windows stores driver packages for all installed hardware, including nVidia graphics drivers. >C:\Windows\System32\drivers <where the actual driver files (.sys files) are located. >C:\Windows\SysWOW64 <where 32-bit drivers are stored on a 64-bit system. >C:\Windows\System32 <where other driver-related files and registry entries may be stored.

>>16325 >No, I cannot boot from a Windows install USB. The screen is black. Sounds like a hardware issue.

Thoughts on ClassicShell/OpenShell? Anything better?

>>16531 For me it's mandatory on Windows 8, 8.1 and 11. Windows 95 through 7 don't need it. It's optional on Windows 10. I believe Open-Shell's competitors are more bloated but haven't looked too hard.

Is there a way of converting/ripping an Audible audio book (AAX) to a regular audio format? I do have account credentials from a family member if that's necessary for decryption. All I was able to find was suspicious software on the internet which does God know what else, and obviously I don't want to use those.

I've ordered a new computer for work so I can take it off my tax returns. The only problem is, since its for work I have to use Windows 11 on it. Are there any community-made "patches" or the like that remove the spy ware and other junk from it?

What's a good email host to attach my 8chan account to now that cock.li is gone?

>>16752 Define good, self-hosting respects your metadata better but would throw your emails straight into the spam folder of main email services. Unless you're an imageboard admin or mark you can probably just use protonmail with pop3 to remove your emails from the server for free.

For the past week, WireGuard has had the problem that it randomly drops my VPN connection to Mullvad every five minutes and have no idea what's causing it. I used to be able to fix it buy just logging out and logging back into my PC's account, but now even that isn't solving it. I tried reinstalling WireGuard, but that only fixed it for a day.
