Question about DBAN'ing Anonymous 2016-05-17 19:26:32 Post No. 54601743 [Report] [View thread]

I have a laptop I want to sell because I bought a new one. I want to DBAN the hard drive. I can't reformat it or install another OS because USB ports and CD drive don't work. The copy of Windows I have on there isn't genuine because I've reformatted it once before and the fucking CD key sticker on the bottom of the laptop rubbed off. If I were to take out my laptop's hard drive, put it in an exclosure, stick it into my desktop and DBAN it from there, and then re-install Windows 7/8/10, could I put it back into my laptop and would it still function?

just
dd bs=4M if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda
and leave it for a few hours.

Nobody will recover even a single byte of data from your disk drive.

Have you already found a buyer ?
It might be a better idea to just fix the usb ports.

So, to be blunt with you mates I don't know shit about programming. Though, my son loves programming. He is currently working with something called "Arduino".
>inb4 feel free to correct me if wrong
So, I'm here to ask if anyone can give me code to help him get started.
>Does anyone know how to make the robot go forward turn right, then stop at a certain point?

Thanks, anons.

Hello daddy. With Arduino you can make all kinds of gadgets. It's basically just a piece in the puzzle of the project your son is making. Without knowing more about his project there's nothing we could say that would help.

Buy him a book , a good book and let him learn his own way.
Just give him good sources of information don't spoonfeed him.

hi guys,
i want to flash new firmware on my e3000. after looking into ddwrt, openwrt, and tomato, and being a beginner, i think i want to try tomato. but the list of things it supports is rather small at http://www.polarcloud.com/tomato even though people talk about it supporting all kinds of different routers. is there some other builds i should be finding instead or something? pretty confused here.

Would you consider working on an open source BLDC controller using a FPGA? They're much better at it than MCUs but all the commercial solutions have horrible licensing terms or ridiculous pricing. I want to build one but I have no FPGA experience so I'm stuck with microcontrollers for now.

They're not that complex however it requires sampling voltage and current at multiple locations while performing mathematical calculations which becomes quite difficult on a CPU due to how latency sensitive it is.

I tried to copy this homescreen from the previous thread, i like it so far

How do I get rid of the dot at the bottom and the two bars on the whatsapp/chrome icon?

Look under desktop in nova settings, it should be called page indicator, set it to none and the dot should disappear
