Nope, a glutton for punishment. Ha! Actually some of the sites I randomly drop in at times have the not so usual troubles. Some of which are more difficult when translation back and fourth is unfriendly. Been more of a reader, of the sites for the last 7 years. One of which as programmer hackers. Not the sort of hackers you hear about with cyber security. The hackers are computer hardware, in making patches or incomatible hardware functional. I did my own hack on making a Panasonic BluRay writer for HP become a Sony through hacking the firmware loader. Once completed, it had been fully updated with full features, that were never released with stock Panasonic firmware. After a few years the site went poof, and my hack was lost forever. I still have some of it in my head, so the act of doing another can be done, just no reason to, since such hardware is no longer a hot item for rippers. There are a few other cool threads lost because of sites poofing. One was about my Dell 9402 Laptop. Its one of the few with dual M.2 slots in a 14" foot print. I got it just before Corona released for 2021. The thread was about modding it with upgrades, and benchmarks. Dell soon changed it to the Insprion 14, which is still being sold, but is inferior. One of my rants was about expecting Corona to cheapen hardware while making it more expensive. Well, I need not fear my theory being wrong. Funny thing is all the sites that have reviews on the 9402 are after I had completed my own thread. Yet none come close. Goes to show reviews are a box of chocolates with mostly creme filled fluff. Luckily my only surviving thread is alive and kicking. Actually gained over 10,000 views since Corona, and I had not bothered to make any updates. Which frightens me, because I am not one to be a center of much of anything. I blame google search, as the topic is old car modifications, with a car hardly anyone knows about, now these days. Not that is is a rare and expensive car to own, it is just the opposite, like get your own and customize, why make my toy a personal drooling machine. Its not that special. Ha! Believe me its not even close to being assembled, and looks pulled from a wrecker. Gosh my round about has gone wonky again. Going to stop, as my brain will keep going elsewhere, where it stops, nobody knows. Ha!
