Came with the house. Changing it out would not be fun.

I have never heard of this before. Thanks for mentioning it.

Import duties are a scam to begin with.

Back in the 80s & 90s you had to configure settings like IRQ and bad sectors.

I agree, but it was free.

I got the laptop free so a sketchy no-name drive is fine for my needs.

Ok, sketchy no-name brand it is, then. One of these perhaps?

I know the feeling. I logged into HP hoping to look up the serial number. All it would tell me is that the warranty is expired.

Turns out there are different types of M.2 keys.

The difference in keys is explained here.

Here’s more info on the types of keys.

What purpose is served by having AI built-in to the browser?

Skip the ssl error message. I log into IP addresses all day and that flag is sanity saving.

No. The old tubes were well used and worn. It was high time for new ones. Just the first set I ordered weren’t adjustable, hence the messy yellow flame on the left. I ordered a proper set with adjustable air intakes and now I get a proper blue flame as seen on the right.

Only problem was mounting the sparkers. Had to get creative.

This is what I did when I had to refurb a laptop. Swap the drives, reinstall the OS, snd hand it all to the user. All your files are on this usb drive.

Thats when you find out who understands folder structure and who doesn’t.

Dual purpose Dyson Ring?

Fellow Canuck here. How did you pull that off?

Pull wire used in electrical. Think chinese finger trap.

For a while, youtube was a life saver for new songs.

A DAC is definitely the better option in my opinion, especially if your phone doesnt have great audio quality.

When the controllers first came out, they’d cheap out by making the computer process the audio. My first Bherringer controller would convert the mic input to digital and send it to the computer to mix on the sound card. If the computer was disconnected you couldnt use the mic or hook up a cd player.

Some people are just cheap and manufactures will make whatever people will buy. The phone already has audio, so the controller is just that: a bunch of buttons. You dont have speakers built into a keyboard or mouse. A controller is just an HID.
