    I need some advice on OpenWrt on my Netgear 7500v1

    Ooooh, HMU on Discord and I got you. I can't maintain a proper conversation on that topic here with all the noise.

    Go go go no openwrt for xpress

    Ha ha. Already installed and running it. Just need some suggested config..

    Anyone hoping for the laptop needs to grab it from him, but, he's extremely competitive and that's understandable.

    I'm here.

    Go for it then..

    Let's go go for it don't give up

    Anybody who gave up- too soon. Take xpress' example. Learn from him.

    He's on the lappy again?

    Have one month to catch up..

    Indeed, people might not give in.

    You'll see more people join after holidays.

    Yah, that's what I am hoping for.

    just want to see how much this party can grow? Not crazy enough for you eh?

    Hell yeah. I want a lot more people to join in.

    Imagine a world where we hit an entire page on each refresh. How many people do you think that would take?

    Am i that much behind? :o

    No, pardon me if I gave that impression. I was just talking about your spirit. Nothing can stop you from reaching that laptop, despite your busy schedule.

    He's a professional at this, so he knows slow and steady wins the race.

    I am like retired professional competing with young guys.. ๐Ÿคฃ

    Retiree making a re-entry. Cue music.

    A tough hurdle to make but rewarding at that.

    Oh yes, it's gonna be rewarding for anybody.

    Those guys that win the laptop better appreciate it! Its a very genrous gift indeed! Even the backpacks towards the bottom would be a great reward

    TrK got his sleep? Or going to sleep

    He slept?

    Most prolly. He is known to be a night owl.

    He didn't sleep the entire night.

    Yup, pulling an all-nighter is tough. Did that last year.

    Not good for health though. Did it couple of days last year on some project. Got sick after few days.

    Yah, at times you get so damn used to it, that you become delusional about it being perfectly healthy. Most of the times, it's not.

    I slept like 2 hours a day for an entire week. :(

    I have done that during exams.

    This is triggering PTSD flashbacks. That period of time was nearly erased from memory

    LOL! Somehow, I would love to go back to those days.

    True i guess that was much less worrysome than the real world

    Have to strat work. Trying my best

    Good luck !

    Thanks dude.. Need to concentrate today.

    May your concentration be equally divided between work and the thread

    But keep your priorties where they are most important! Do not waver

    Oh yeah. He has both his eyes on the laptop, ig.

    as opposed to one eye like noob likes to do!

    Damn... yea not even gonna try for this laptop anymore... @TrK you are insane dude... its been like 48 hours or so and you have 1k+ comments

    Not the first time for him. he was playing it cool during BF cause he just wanted the iPad.

    That makes more sense now. I didnt recall the race being so close in the BF thread as it is now

    Yup, the loss of the iPad also hurt him Ig. That's why he's going for the laptop aggressively.

    Its his own fault. He should've commented less.. :p

    The deal could have finalised..... Sed.... But let's see what I will do with 450 usd sitting on my RN account.

    You already converted? should've waited a little more?

    does it scale with currency changes?

    Next year maybe, we will have a Strix in the pool.

    If business is good, maybe I'll upgrade and offer up my used one next year in some kinda of raffle. Would be easier to get a used model through customs I imagine!

    What if I shipped it all torn apart, and the winner had to assemble it? :p

    Tearing apart laptop? worst nightmare. :'(

    It's actually fairly easy to reassemble in most cases, unless you don't desolder anything.

    I am bad at hardware soldered hardware.

    Me as well. I try to stay away as much as possible, but recently I have taken an interest to it

    Its really satisfying. gives you a taste of how things work at an even finer level

    Moreover, hardware nowadays is sturdier. So, you have to be extremely inexperienced or careless to cause irreversible damage.

    Thats true but for some reason it seems like my laptops want to break if i breath on them

    Nothing special. Got a few friends and neighbours who already sent me cakes. Gonna enjoy them first.

    Enjoyy..

    Funny thing is I am on a diet right now.

    Its ok to break it every once in a while. Treat yourself!

    Unfortunately, I break it every 7 days in a week :lol:

    Reassembling it would be a challenge in itself. BTW, so kind of you to even consider it. At times, with Indian customs, it doesn't even matter, if it's used, broken or brand new.

    Exactly.. don't know what they learn at training.

    It's prolly not just training. Unclear policies could be a very good reason for the uncertainty.

    Good reason for them to earn a lot from the loop holes.

    Yup. Right. There's still some corruption in the customs department

    is it really that bad there?

    Used to be worse, but, I guess, it's gotten a bit better in the past decade.

    Thats good to hear. As long as they are improving can keep to hope for the best

    A computer store near me has this wall of motherboards, so cool.

    And just look at all these Linksys WRT series routers!

    Probably acquired them when someone ran outta business.

    They've been around for a while and love to collect like me, so we get along quite well.

    Ahh, are these on sale BTW, the routers, esp?

    They're mostly for display in the shop, but maybe if I asked really nice.

    Here's my setup for the big RackNerd thread of 2021 :D

    Woah, that's impressive, man. That green lit keybaord an HP Pavillion gaming?

    Yeah that's my 2019 HP 15Z, Ryzen 5 1050ti. Not a bad little rig for $450!

    "Not a bad" is an understatement. That laptop had great thermal management (both hardware and software) for the price it retailed for.

    Oddly enough the reviews from Best Buy said the exact opposite, but I snagged it anyway and mine is excellent still to this day. Probably fixed the cooling issue with a BIOS update by the time I purchased it, I guess the fans weren't kicking in when they should have been?

    I was able to play Cyberpunk 2077 on it with no problems when it released, when people with much higher end hardware were complaining of constant problems, so I was happy with my choice.

    I see, maybe you got one of the very first generations. Pavillion series you own was later famous among gamers for badass thermal management.

    My first laptop was compaq. 2GB ram, pentium. 5kg weight.

    Whatever happened to Compaq?!

    Absorbed by HP.

    Yup. That was solid laptop though. Service was also good at that time.

    I have an old Compaq sitting in my mom's garage somewhere, probably only a handful of years newer than that IBM Thinkpad. I should go get it and see if she will still boot.

    I think it will. Mine still turns on. Screen damaged but can see some gibberish on it.

    Still own the old Compaq? Remember how much you got it for?

    Not working. Just have it in a box. I think I got it for 32K at that time.

    Didn't know laptops were that cheap in those days.

    theres always some form of entry/basic level available

    Oh yeah, maybe my dealer back in 2003 was trying to make a quick buck by overquoting us.

    Most likely, needs to manage his margins to keep his business and himself alive

    Completed the debugging of my projects

    Seems like a good use of christmas!

    I think so as well.

    So ready to launch mystery?

    A lil bit of debugging left. On it right now.

    Backend? what languages you are using?

    PHP, always. Too dumb to go for Python.

    Php is great for web. I use it for work.

    What framework/cms you are using?

    Codeigniter ? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    Thats ancient now, like our old lappys

    I have a couple of ancient websites running codeigniter and I am afraid to touch them when they are for clients.

    When something works.. don't touch it.. B)

    That's the philosophy I live by

    too many people learn this the hard way but usually they figure it out quick!

    Interesting. That would mean, the configs have to be lowered a bit. But, it'd guarantee more laptop winners.

    Exactly.. lower specs..

    Maybe Framework laptops?

    Means?

    Easily customisable laptops - https://frame.work/ Even GPU can be upgraded without soldering.

    wow pretty cool. Had not seen these before. an interesting concept

    They ahve beena round for some years now, but, they are getting traction now.

    Next time in the market i'll have to check them out. Pretty happy with my very old asus for now

    What did you ahve to solder on these? usually they are good to go

    Soldered UART cables on to them to get Shell access

    Did you go to school to learn how to do this or has it all been via trial and error?

    what issues do you usually have with them?

    Mainly, taxation without a proper base to it. They can charge you virtually anything they feel like.

    Ah i see so it can vary from day to day. Depends on who you get and also what mood they are in? Thats no good

    Cece is like, Dad why did you buy such an expensive laptop? :p

    Babe its to gift our beloved xpress. B)

    :D

    You get the Nitro, you ain't touching my Strix. :p

    Next year maybe, we will have a Strix in the pool.

    If business is good, maybe I'll upgrade and offer up my used one next year in some kinda of raffle. Would be easier to get a used model through customs I imagine!

    What if I shipped it all torn apart, and the winner had to assemble it? :p

    Our customs still charge on it may be. They do unexpected things. :D

    Yup, they might even charge it as a new product.

    They do?

    Have heard of stories of that happening as well. Don't have personal experience of this specific thing though.

    I hope we don't have to see anything like that. > @noob404 said:

    TrK is so hyped now, he won't be leaving the first spot for anyone

    Anyone hoping for the laptop needs to grab it from him, but, he's extremely competitive and that's understandable.

    I'm here.

    Go for it then..

    Let's go go for it don't give up

    Anybody who gave up- too soon. Take xpress' example. Learn from him.

    He's on the lappy again?

    Have one month to catch up..

    Indeed, people might not give in.

    You'll see more people join after holidays.

    Yah, that's what I am hoping for.

    More competition .. let them come..

    Yup. Let's hope more people will join soon.

    I don't want more competition to my lappy

    Unfortunately though, for you, you will have more competition. Remember, harder the battle, sweeter the victory.

    And the prize really likes to draw in the competion as well! remember to breathe and relax when you take home that prize!

    Exactly. Hope you do get the TV!

    Thanks noob! Im going to start making some spacefor it soon. Need to throw some things away

    I do a lot of router mods, let me know if you ever need assistance.

    I need some advice on OpenWrt on my Netgear 7500v1

    Ooooh, HMU on Discord and I got you. I can't maintain a proper conversation on that topic here with all the noise.

    Go go go no openwrt for xpress

    Ha ha. Already installed and running it. Just need some suggested config..

    Install transmission and do torrent

    Had it on NAS. Removed after one drive died. Always felt the Transmission was the reason for my drive failrue in the wdcloud.

    That could be it. Too much reading and writing. I try to limit my drive access and even maintainence because im afraid to do too many reads and writes.

    It's Christmas today, what are your plans!

    Nothing special. Got a few friends and neighbours who already sent me cakes. Gonna enjoy them first.

    Enjoyy..

    Funny thing is I am on a diet right now.

    You also dieting? I am doing IF since last 2 months.

    Nah, nothing serious. I mean I have removed certain items from my diet completely.

    What types of items? anything specific? Junk food or something else?

    Mainly junk food. Soon, I am also gonna take sugar off my diet and maybe use honney or jaggery instead.

    Tthats a good idea. Or atleast cut back on sugar? Sugar isnt that bad, i think its more the quantity of sugar that people use

    Hahaha, you'll face resistance

    Competition is the right term.

    true. Similar words for a similar meaning

    Exactly, sometimes we forget that it's just a competition.

    But don't forget its a friendly one that that! We all have fun doing it. Really it doesnt matter who wins and we just enjoy ourselves in the process

    Tearing apart laptop? worst nightmare. :'(

    It's actually fairly easy to reassemble in most cases, unless you don't desolder anything.

    As long as there is no soldering, that would make it way easier

    I'll never buy something with soldered ram

    MacBook? Mac mini? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    Nope. Thats why I prefer a PC. Most developers I've seen like the MacBook pro though. I do like the looks of it. But non upgradability is meh for me.

    It's upgradable if you get the right tools, right replacement chips and a sure fire way to temper with OS core....

    I think someone who has to work to earn, and spending on MacBook to work, will not have that much time to put that effort. :p

    That's why we see more macs in garbage dump.....

    Thats how Apple earns money.. selling new, dumping old.

    Capitalism at it's peak....

    You like Macs?

    I honestly do.... Especially the OS......

    OS I agree.. its beautiful and functional. Hardware is good too. But they don't want us to own it.

    Hackintosh is the only way.......

    Will try on my new nitro.

    Doesn't work with nvidia cards ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    Inbuild gpu wont work for Hackintosh?

    what exactly is hackintosh?
