I tried to get through the intro but it never seems to end. Is there a game to be played at some point? Thanks.

What was considered high-end precision machining a few decades ago is now standard and easily reproducible in cheap labor markets. For example, guitars made in SKorea used to be a bad joke. Their machining tolerances were too big and too in

So you were able to sue, for example Google or Qualtrics because a spammer sent you one of their links? I'm confused on that part. Or did the legit company reveal the identity of the spammer to you? Seems like the case would get tosse

Have you ever seen a MagLite flashlight? (Or a clone)? The batteries are kept in place by a threaded cap which is spring loaded. My neighbor manufactures the caps, alone, in his garage. Cuts the threads and installs the spring. As far as no
