MrHaydenJr reacted to coreygibson in networking idea using cellphones, ideas appreciated...
would 2 phones be able transmit to each other over that distance? I wonder if it would be possible to use hamm radio signals to do it, ive seen texting over hamm but this might be a bit much.

MrHaydenJr got a reaction from Zando_ in Benchmark differences between macbook colors
(i havent watched the video)
but assuming spec wise they may be the same, the silicon lottery IS real.
chances are the performance differences seen are due to better silicon in one vs the other...

MrHaydenJr reacted to Matt_in_NE in Illegal crypto mine discovered in HS crawl-space
Summary
Police in Cohasset, MA discovered that a Cohasset HS employee had set up a crypto mining operation in a crawl space in the school. The mine, which was discovered in 2021, was set up by a town employee. It was investigated for months by the US Coast Guard and Department of Homeland Security. Investigators determined that the employee stole over $18,000 worth of electricity from the school.
Quotes
My thoughts
I was expecting it to have been put together by students. It's also weird that it was a physical inspection that led to the mine's discovery, not the school noticing that their electricity bill had skyrocketed. And was getting DHS involved really neccessarry?

Would be interesting to see an unboxing of the Unihertz Tank. It's an Android smartphone with a 22000mAh battery (no, that is not a typo).

MrHaydenJr reacted to An0maly_76 in After replacing HDD windows Not booting
Yes, OP = Original Poster. After re-reading your posts here, I agree with @MrHaydenJr, otherwise, it sounds like USB boot might be disabled in the BIOS boot order, but that should usually show an error message "No boot device detected" or something similar. If this is a slow USB thing, that machine likely has a 1.1 or 2.0 interface, which is going to be quite slow.

MrHaydenJr reacted to emosun in I need a lot of guidance.
buy a used prebuilt from a seller with a lot of good feedback and a good return policy.
then keep your modifications to a minimum like a simple gpu upgrade.

MrHaydenJr reacted to Needfuldoer in LTT Screwdriver
It's not shipping yet, the listing on lttstoredotcom is just a notification sign-up so you get an email when it does.
When Backpack launched, they did a pop-up shop first, then opened 'backorders' after a couple weeks. My guess is they're going to roll Screwdriver out the same way, since there's a pop-up shop scheduled for that now.

MrHaydenJr reacted to Bi0 in LTT Screwdriver
I'll be holding any judgement until after i can review the product, I've been a long time viewer and would hope this was a "we can do this better" not "we can make money with this". From what i followed it seems to not be the latter from the care and development put into this but ultimately we will see.

It's either the drive causing disk management to crash or disk management is corrupted. Try another M.2 slot.

MrHaydenJr got a reaction from soldier_ph in Thread for Linus Tech Tips Video Suggestions
could we see another camera video, in particular the best budget cams, but their are so many features....
im thinking a layout kinda like this, could even be broken down into sub videos...
intro (generalize video)
LTT INTRO (the cool 3D animated one from reddit, its soooo much better)
overview of cameras selected,
synopsis of video
segway for probably PIA again.... (you have other sponsors right?)
features found on cameras (which features are a must, what are good features but not needed, useless features, maybe special use cases)
3-or-5-or-7 camera's feature specs (my suggestions are sub $500 cameras as this is what most youtubers or streamers would be comfortable spending)
id like to see a review of these cheap amazon "30mp 4k" cameras with "youtube" remotes (sub$100-$200) https://www.amazon.com/Camcorder-Comkes-Digital-vlogging-Batteries/dp/B07RRTV6B5/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=30mp+camera+4k+remote+batteries&qid=1587503214&sr=8-3
https://www.amazon.com/Camcorder-Vlogging-CofunKool-Microphone-Batteries/dp/B07KB21JL8/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=SUNLEA&qid=1587502115&sr=8-4
---action camera (GoPro or Yi cam) (~$200-300) cell phone (last years model, not the new $2000 smartphone with 5 cameras) video comparisons of things like debauchery and maybe some outtakes or camera switching while filming......
maybe side by side and back and forth comparisons....... heck, you can do do segways with all the different cams.......
then you could show one or two higher priced cams just for comparison (w/ video)
canon t6i maybe a red from work then discuss the pros/cons of a cheaper camera,
would one fit the bill of a at home/weekend warrior/garage youtuber? back to cheaper cameras for detailed scrutiny of your staff (get multiple opinions, and actually have film staff try the different cams, cameramen and hosts)
SEGWAY for LTT panties,
have the hosts pick a favorite,
results
-THE END-
seriously tho.... i need a new camera so you should do this soon.... lol

MrHaydenJr got a reaction from Bombastinator in Good budget prebuilt
my advice to the OP is my current setup...
find a dell 9010/9020 SFF (small tower if you want more ugradability, SFF are limited by half height PCIe cards) -i have a SFF, mounted it under my desk
toss in i7-4770/4790, if it didnt come with one (k-series can be run with a bios update)
change the thermal paste on the cpu cooler (i used kryonaut and never hit above 60' unless im running benchmarks back-to-back-to-back)
i threw in a half height GT1030 (itll play titles like rocket league, CS:GO, forza horizon 4, etc., runs fusion 360 for 3d modeling pretty well too)
or pick any other modern GPU that will fit (depends on your case choice) as it will be a huge upgrade to what you have (their is a half height 1050TI out their)
sata SSD for speed (brand doesnt really matter, just as long as it has a cache)
i also tossed in a 2tb firecuda HHDD for storage (it was on sale, and this case fits either one 3.5" drive or 2 2.5" drives)
i used only 16gb of ram (this pc accepts up to 32gb over 4 slots)
price breakdown
$90 9020 optiplex with i7-4790 with win10 pro 64bit from marketplace
$20 kryonaut thermal paste
$?? reused 16gb of DDR3 ram from an old pc that had hard drive failure
$50 500gb WD Blue ssd (was on sale at local walmart)
$60 Firecuda 2tb HHDD (was on sale on amazon)
$80 GT1030 from microcenter
without harddrives your looking at maybe $200
to duplicate my setup $300 + cost of ram
honestly tho this hybrid drive is just as fast as my SSD over sata, but ive heard seagate drives are more prone to failure (ive never had one die on me)
and i purchased the SSD first as it was the size of my last pcs entire hard drive, then i saw the firecuda on sale so i had to get it....
im super impressed with this cheap little setup and as i said before, this would be a huge upgrade and its cheap....
and if you get a tower instead, you can mod a window and install all the RGB you desire (theirs youtube tutotials on this)
and you would have like $500 left over for a graphics card... lol

MrHaydenJr reacted to aisle9 in Good budget prebuilt
Budget and country?
What's in the old one? Depending on the hardware, it might be just fine to carry on with after an easy upgrade or two. 100C means it's dirty, not that it's obsolete.

MrHaydenJr reacted to 5x5 in Dear LTT, please stop hating Apple
Let me mention some awesome things about apple.
Failing butterfly keyboards,
Torn display flex cables,
Exploding TB3 controllers,
Dysfunctional fuzes
Sending 50v to the CPU when in a humid room,
Running at 100*C cause cooling is hard,
Asking 2000$ for an SSD upgrade,
Encrypting soldered SSDs and removing lifeboat connector so as to make data recovery impossible,
"Fixing" a desoldered chip by putting a piece of rubber on it.
Making iMAc Power Suuply that can kill you when cl among it (no shielding)
Making a bendable phone before it was cool (6s)
Making a bendable tablet before it was cool (iPad from a year or two ago)
Quoting ridiculous prices to fix working electronics that only need a bit of cleaning.
Stop rabbiting about Apple, use your brain and see that the trillion dollar company deserves to be called out.
