Sound Bar recommendation for 65inch TV

TheMakers — Fri, 09 Oct 2020 09:58:06 +0800

I'm now looking for a good sound bar after I bought 65inches Sony X90H TV. My choice are as below:

Samsung Q70T
LG SN9YG
Samsung Q800T
JBL 5.1
Sony Z9F
Yamaha YSP-2700

Please don't recommend Samsung Q80R or Q90R as no one is selling this model anymore in my area. The above are already filtered within my budget. Thanks a lot Sifu.

Downgrade from Enterprise to Ultimate

I plan to downgrade from Enterprise edition to Ultimate. I google it and it seems like the only way is to reformat the pc, but then i found this link -

It looks easy to downgrade by editing registry, but I do not know whether it will affect the file in it or not. Anyone has experienced this before? Thanks

Bios keep reset everytime start PC

TheMakers — Tue, 15 Feb 2011 12:55:00 +0800

I have an old pc. AMD Barton XP 2500.. With Asus A7V8X-X Motherboard. Everytime i start my PC. It will always automatically direct to bios and request me to choose a proper processor speed. ( 1833mhz... 2033mhz etc ). After I choose the correct one. I'm able to access the windows. but then the Windows System Time has been reset back to year 2002. I suspect that it is the bios battery is dying. Cause after i set it back, the next day the problem starts all over again. Sifu, am I guessing correctly?

How to remove the new PC smell easily

TheMakers — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 11:08:42 +0800

Hi guys, I hope no one has asked this question before. So here it goes.

I bought a pc like 1 year ago. Everything is brand new and the casing the high tower case ( not mid case ).

And everytime my parents went my room, they will always said the new PC smell is still there... I thought I have used it for almost 1 year, and that smell should be wearing off. Anyone knows how to remove the smell easily?

( I hope you guys know what it meant by PC smell, is the new PC smell when you just bought and assemble it ).

SCJP java certificate

TheMakers — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 10:45:19 +0800

Hi guys, i need some help here.

I'm currently working as software engineer at the moment. And I would like to make a huge jump to the java programmer/ any related java job. But i personally do not have the formal java certificate. I would like to retrain my java skill and get the certificate for my next job.

After I've done I research I only found out that java certificate is called SCJP. But then java got J2EE and J2SE ( ignore the mobile version ), and those job that I'm looking right now is mainly J2EE. Should I apply the J2EE certificate without learning the J2SE? Would it be difficult for me if I skip the SE version?

One more thing. Is there any corperate training class that would allow me to attend to have better learning on the java?

I do hope anyone can help me on this especially those who are certified java programmer/engineer. As I'm really fond to this kind of job. Thanks.
