Techdude154 got a reaction from Ceatra in trust Ifixit for battery replacement iphone 3G?
I used ifixit for replacing my ipod photo battery when it went and it has been great. The tools were good, tutorials were excellent, and the part works very well. I don't think Linus would let a shady company sponsor his videos.

I wonder if it is doing it to slip under the radar and cause actual issues in the future. I heard a case where there was malware that would remove other malware so it could do its thing without being noticed

Techdude154 got a reaction from tobben in Trying to count words in string of unspecified length - javascript
That was my bad, I looked through the code some more and I would suggest using the indexOf function
http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_indexof.asp
you would basically check using the indexof function if the word exists already
Basically you would create a temporary string that you would append to after you check. When you go to add to the string, use the following code
if(str.indexOf(txtarray === -1)
{
str = str + check + ": " + count;
}
Then just do:
settxt.innerHTML = str;
Hopefully that makes sense, I'm not good at explaining things

Techdude154 reacted to MG2R in deceptive reviews and shoddy advertisement practices being cracked down on in youtube re Machinima/xbox 1
From what I can tell, this thread is basically a big collection of unsupported, self-proclaimed "facts", covered in a sauce of racial slurs and ad-hominems. For the one-millionth time: this is not allowed on the forums. Discussion is encouraged, but keep it civil. You guys have failed to do so in this thread, hence it is now locked. Today is a sad day.

It's a funny addon that it goes around every now and then, but a full show or anything? Nah. Liftin' with Nicky V is just fine though (funny, very short clips of that sort of thing)

The default raspian is good enough. You can also install arch if you want.

Techdude154 reacted to ReTV in Ultimate PXE (Network) Boot Tutorial
Hello there!
1. Introduction
I recently needed to install some Windows Version on an old Netbook. I didn't have a spare flash drive,
it didn't support SD booting and of course it didn't have a CDD. So I had to use installation via PXE.
The conclusion was, that this procedure was way easier than USB booting, and I'll show you how you can
do it, too!
2. What you need
2.1. HOST PC
You will need a PC which will act as the network boot drive. This PC needs to run Windows (XP to Windows 10).
2.2. SLAVE PC
This is the PC you will install Windows to. It doesn't need to run anything, but it has to have PXE support
(we will get to that).
2.3. Some kind of Network
For this method, it is really irrelevant what kind of network you have. You will need to connect the Slave PC
via a wired connection, because most BIOS won't support WiFi. How the Host PC is connected doesn't matter at all.
For example, this would be a valid network:
2.4 An OS Image
You also need a disk image from the Windows Version you will use. This can either be a virtual disk (ISO) or
a physical disk (as long as the Host supports DVDs).
2.5 Serva
Download the free Software Serva from here.
3. Tutorial
3.1. Setting up the Slave PC
check the Slave PCs BIOS for the Boot Priority and enable PXE (sometimes called Local Network). set the PXE option as the first boot entry 3.2. Setting up Serva and the Host PCmount the Windows Installation ISO or insert the Windows Installation DVD unpack the Serva download to any folder you like go to the network options and enable File Sharing in the local network (if you cant turn File Sharing on, check wether your connection is set to Home Network) create an empty folder at X:\SERVA_ROOT (X being your System drive) run Serva.exe Windows FireWall will alert you, allow Serva to open ports (!) (in Serva) click Settings go to the tab "TFTP" enable the checkbox "TFTP Server" click "Browse" and select the X:\SERVA_ROOT we created earlier switch to the "DHCP" tab and enabe "proxyDHCP" enable BINL rerun Serva there should now be some new folders in X:\SERVA_ROOT right click on X:\SERVA_ROOT\WIA_WDS and select Properties go to Sharing and share this folder also share this folder with Everyone and set permission to Read/Write change the network share name to WIA_WDS_SHARE: go to your virtual/physical installation drive and just copy all the contents create a new folder in X:\SERVA_ROOT\WIA_WDS\Type_Any_Name_Here (for example: X:\SERVA_ROOT\WIA_WDS\Windows7x64) paste the Installation files into that directory (you can create multiple directories for multiple OS) rerun Serva 3.3. Installationconnect the Slave PC to the network and turn it on the Slave should now try to obtain a DHCP packet from the Serva server (may take some time) you should now see the Serva bootloader on the Slave PC select your OS (Windows 10 will be displayed as Windows 8.1) log into the Host PC by entering the User credentials (for example: ReTVPC\ReTV and password123). install as usual 4. Fin Congrats, you successfully booted via PXE. Now, for every new setup, you just need to copy the OS to
your Serva root.

Techdude154 reacted to Trik'Stari in Ford's New Car Prevents Speeding
And if you are in an emergency and have a legitimate reason to speed? (they do exist, I remember once instance of a story I read about a man and his daughter being chased by some guy who'd had a psychotic break or something, and he was trying to ram their car off the road)
Stupid product, no one should buy it.

Driving the limit when everyone is doing 30+ over is less safe than doing 30+ over with everyone else. This is a bad idea and people will hate this car.

Techdude154 got a reaction from Tim Drake in How difficult is it to move an OS over from a HDD to an SSD?
Don't forget about the loss in capacity. A 256 GB SSD will only be about 238GB when you account for loss.

Techdude154 got a reaction from MVPernula in SSD anyone? Which one?
I like the crucial drives if you want low cost. Newegg has a bx100 250GB on sale for around $85. I think you need to sign up for their mailing list

Techdude154 reacted to slifer in Platform Launch and MASSIVE GIVEAWAY
WAIT HOLD UP. WE DONT WANT LINUS'S PERSONAL PC. The case has a lot of meaning to him guys. It was a gift from his wife. I believe it was the first gift from her too.
EDIT: Thanks for all the likes guys! Hopefully Linus or someone from LMG will read this and this will make Linus keep his build. Even if the goal of 100k is made we should convince Linus to do another build maybe, with signatures from the whole LMG family and maybe even his wife. This would let Linus keep the build he has with the special case his wife gave him. Besides, his personal PC would be more special to him than us.
