Use a helmet all the time anyway. Something might happen and you fly over the handlebars, like when my front splash guard broke off, jammed between the wheel and the fork, and sent me flying at 20mph. Glad I wore a helmet.

I imagine Dr. Su a couple of years ago whispered to a couple of lead technicians "you are going to start a little garage side project here at AMD; it will be the future" AMD releases 32-core + ARM APUs

Poor quality floaters, the mechanism gets stuck. Quick fix. But a common problem? Nah.

Too much work. Just blackhole all requests originating from India in the firewall, as a start.

Just blackhole every request originating from India. After a while the developers will ask why their users are mad that they get ads all the time. You then give them the finger, tell them to get their lists elsewhere, or pay for access due

Switched to US layout on everything (because brackets and gt / lt are SO much more conveniently placed) and having to use an ISO keyboard now is just pain. My hands forgot.

You had a Courier or nothing. They were amazing if your ISP (or warez bbs) had them at the other end. Proprietary compression / connection algorithms, I guess? Pretty much the only modem I got ACTUAL 56K speeds with was a Courier V.34

And FUCK the input settings not keeping properly after saving. Try plugging in a laptop, set the input to "PC", save the input config. All good. But if you unplug the laptop from HDMI, either end? Setting lost, back to default. Ug

It's a piezo speaker without a case around it, so yeah it will sound harsh. I guess you mean the sound missing is kind of like that hollow resonance from the casing that you get in a 3,5" drive; a bit like the thock from typing on
