In Win 8.1 you can connect to a wifi from the login screen. How does this handle portals that require accepting things on a webpage?

My wife spilled some coffee on her keyboard (Corsair K70, uses Cherry MX Reds). She wiped it off immediately and I don't see where any liquid could have gotten into the electronic bits. However when she rebooted the computer acts like keys are stuck (goes into command prompt diag options, keeps on hitting return). Scroll lock keeps flashing, which on these keyboards is supposed to mean it's in BIOS mode. BIOS mode switch was never fooled with. Are mechanical boards more sensitive to liquid intrusion? It's not like this is the first time either of us have spilled something on a keyboard but none of the membrane types seemed bothered as long as you dried them off quickly.

I had the same thing happen and the moisture got between the red bit (well, in my case brown) and the black surround of the button and fuxked everything up

It was a tiny splash and I don't even know how it would get into the switch. fake edit: she just plugged it back in and it's working fine. I guess it just had a switch that needed to dry out? IDK. Either way +1 for Corsair boards being durable I guess

anthonypants posted:it may not work at all but if you do boot into windows it's going to complain a lot. and why are you swapping around your hard drive, didn't you just build a new computer i'm basically replacing everything except the hard drives, which i want to carry over from my last machine. if i have to do a bunch of windows reconfiguring, that's no problem; i'd just rather not have to start from blankness

srs question: i am looking for the most lightweight linux distribution possible. but includes the kernel, bash, and a packaging system... the rest i can emulate through busybox. i am working on a linux distro (lol i want to die) for routing. if possible, is there a lightweight distro that contains: kernel, bash, basic package system (even if its an offshoot of another distros, in order to install basic tools). i am trying to avoid LFS if at all possible to save time. also pls forgive me, i havent ever built a linux distro by hand unless it includes gentoo, and am a retard babby

wow i never knew that existed thanks fishmech also: if possible, can you recommend one that has an ARM architecture available? I forgot to mention that I am hoping to runs this on the raspberry pi as well either way openbox does the trick for the most part edit: thats more lightweight than the options that the raspberry noobs thing provides edit2: i looked at crunchbang and it seems like its the opposite of where i am trying to go: a layer on top of debian. i am looking to go more towards a layer under debian if that makes sense du -hast fucked around with this message at 21:03 on May 22, 2015 |

actual routers have trouble pushing packets over NAT without hw acceleration so yeah pick up something that runs openwrt and do the rest yourself
