@Bob wrong

Pretty much everything other than TDD lets you send signals both ways simultaneously. That includes ADSL, HFC, and most FTTP implementations

Journeyman Geek

@qasdfdsaq I thought you had transmit and recieve lines?

qasdfdsaq

@JourneymanGeek Only on enterprise fibre

Journeyman Geek

On a phone line too. 4 wires no?

qasdfdsaq

Nah. Phone lines only use 2 wires. In reality, you can make do with 1

DSL over phone lines is full duplex and uses FDD. Lower frequencies for upstream, higher frequencies for downstream. VDSL interleaves multiple US/DS bands.

The number of upstream and downstream channels is fixed by the standard. ADSL, by definition, assigns asymmetric numbers:

Also, due to effects of FEXT and NEXT at the DSLAM you wouldn't get symmetrical bandwidth anyway even with a 50/50 FDD splut

My god why do I even know these things.

Someone thought it was a good idea to only provision 40GB to our VDIs...

Now everyone is running out of space and engineering won't up the size! D:

bwDraco

@qasdfdsaq DSL suffers from really bad attenuation over long distances, which significantly limits bandwidth if you're not within a few thousand feet of the DSLAM.

Bob

@qasdfdsaq Sorry - I did clarify a couple messages down that you can get around it by transmitting at different frequencies, with different time slots, etc..

bwDraco

DSL speed drops off fast once you're about a mile away from the DSLAM.

Bob

More accurate might've been "both signals at the same time on the same frequency"

Maybe code division too but I'm not sure how that works and how that differs from freq and time

@bwDraco then it's not bleepingcomputer's problem anyway (and those John Does still are fine)

qasdfdsaq

Consumer FTTP (e.g. GPON) uses WDD. DSL and HFC both use FDD.

Incidentally LTE, WCDMA and GSM also use FDD, though LTE has optional TDD it's only really used by the Chinese and for backhaul in the west

Bob

@qasdfdsaq There's no practical difference between the two, though, apart from naming..?

> The term wavelength-division multiplexing is commonly applied to an optical carrier (which is typically described by its wavelength), whereas frequency-division multiplexing typically applies to a radio carrier (which is more often described by frequency). Since wavelength and frequency are tied together through a simple directly inverse relationship, in which the product of frequency and wavelength equals c (the propagation speed of light), the two terms actually describe the same concept.

Bleh.

qasdfdsaq

Yeah. They're the same thing. But W is generally used in place of F on optical media. Except with RFoG.

Mainly cause optical transcievers and lasers tend to be specified in wavelength rather than frequency (because 1400nm is easier to write than 220000000Mhz or whatever)

220THz?

The wonders of metric.

I wonder if S7 release prices will be at RRP.

Never bought a phone near release before :\

bwDraco

01:47

I'd be surprised if Enigma Software is able to sustain the claims that "ESG's SpyHunter product has received top industry certifications" (page 4) and that "Defendent's conduct is willful and malicious" (page 10). The latter is very hard to prove, even in the presence of evidence of commercial motivation.

qasdfdsaq

Most flagship releases are at RRP.

I already bought one.

Flagships tend to remain at RRP for about 3-4 months after release.

@Bob That was a wild guess. Apparently, quick math suggests its 250000000000000Hz

Heh, that works out to be 250 THz. Not bad for a wild guess.

Bob

Hm. That might be perfectly timed to fit within my 6 month period to reclaim any price reduction :P

Or I could wait 3-4 months to purchase.

Would also let me avoid any teething bugs and see some good reviews.

qasdfdsaq

For most of this decade I've either bought flagships at (or before) the time of release or about a year later >_>

Federico

09:26

oh boy, you know you have a problem when windows support technicians are baffled.
**I am posting here for the moment, but I can create a proper question if you deem it appropriate**
summary of the situation:
- 2 days ago, updated from win7 to 10 succesfully. multiple reboots with no issues.
- yesterday, black screen after login
- I can lauch task manager and from there firefox and an elevated prompt, I cannot launch win update or file explorer (continues)

- looking around it seems that win10 does not like SSDs (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3025096)
- I have run sfc /scannow and the log mentions that opencl.dll does not match
now:
1) how is opencl.dll connected to a black screen?
2) the windows tech support suggested to reinstall win10 from an ISO, but this would prevent me from reverting to win7 if it fails to solve the issue

does any of you have any suggestions on what I might try?

Bob

@Federico Windows 'support technicians' are usually baffled :P

Federico

:P

Bob

@Federico opencl is gpgpu

but that implies other graphics driver issues...

@Federico Windows 10 has no issues with SSDs over HDDs afaik

your link is for the technical preview, which was beta software

@Federico If you were concerned about 'reverting' to win7, which has a 30 day limit and is overwritten with a win10 major update anyway, then you should/would have taken a proper image backup first

you can try to manually update your graphics drivers

You can also try creating a new user. Apparently the win10 explorer occasionally stuffs up a user's profile. If the new user works, we can troubleshoot the old profile more from there.

Federico

about graphics, I have:
- disabled the driver of the CPU graphics (after the issue occourred)
- a NVidia graphics card
- updated the nvidia drivers after the win10 update, but afterwards I proceeded to play and reboot with no issues
about the 'reverting', I am concerned about it for these 30 days

how can I create a new user?

Bob

@Federico ah... no control panel, eh. is this Home or Pro?

@Federico try uninstalling the nvidia drivers and installing from scratch

Federico

09:33

should be pro, but right now I can't recall correctly

Bob

you can try the new user first if it's easier

@Federico launch lusrmgr.msc

you can go to the Users folder on the left and then right click in the middle pane and select New User

Federico

will do (I am not at the PC right now, but I am investigating all possible options)

Bob

lusrmgr requires Pro

if you're on Home try launching control userpasswords2

I dunno if that works on win10

maybe netplwiz or netplwiz.exe

Federico

I will try, else I download the nvidia drivers and perform a clean install of them

Bob

@Federico uninstall the old ones first, if you can, before installing the new

Federico

09:36

will be fun with only task manager and cmd :D
is there a way to launch the "programs and feature" control panel from there?

Bob

@Federico If you still can't get into a user control panel, you can use the net user /add command

or whatever the powershell equivalent is

it goes net use username password /add

where username and password are ... yea

Federico

:D

Bob

@Federico You could try appwiz.cpl

but I dunno if that works on win10

it also might not work at all if Explorer is broken

the netplwiz is special cause it opens a dialog rather than a special explorer window

Federico

@Bob not all, from task manager I can browse around normally

Bob

other cpl widgets are within explorer

@Federico task manager isn't part of Explorer

Federico

09:39

@Bob not even the "browse" option for the "launch new task"?

Bob

@Federico that's a bit of a funny case :P

It's not hosted by the Explorer process, afaik

I think control panel is

Federico

ok, I see

Bob

they're part of the standard Windows shell widgets, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's hosted in Explorer

Federico

concerning the opencl.dll, this is what sfc tells me in the log:
Hashes for file member \SystemRoot\WinSxS\wow64_microsoft-windows-r..xwddmdriver-wow64-c_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.10586.0_none_3dae054b56911c22\opencl.dll do not match actual file [l:10]"opencl.dll" :
