Yea i already have that tutorial on my bookmarks its just that some steps on the thread are done differently than the video so it confused me
well the video you posted is for 2.6 and outdated thets why its different you can follow it if you want but when done you will want to update your rxtools version so you can autoboot cfw so why not kill two birds with one stone and just use the newer guide

I was going to follow the guide on the thread but when i downloaded that rxTools given there i saw this "rxTools nightly build buggy and incomplete"
so i thought its not that good , is it stable ?
just a stupid question : what do you mean by "you can autoboot cfw" ? rx mode boots automatically when i turn my 3ds on ?
and thanks alot you really helped me out ^^

i use the 9-28 build from this link RxTools Nightlies by @WhoAmI? it's the most stable build i have used

yes that's exactly what i mean by autoboot here is a video of it https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=LcAMVMpXjzo
also the only stupid question is an unasked question

i couldnt find that option but i found a firmware.bin here :
its gonna work too right ?
first remove that link it violates gbatemp rules
and it may or may not work (differint versions of rxtools use different firmware.bin files) but one you make yourself will work for sure

the only part of the process that is dangerous at all is updating sysnand and even that is safe if you read first and follow the instructions carefully

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
