I also recently tried a bunch of USB3+SCSI - SATA adapters from Amazon, and only found a single one that supported passing TRIM through. And that's after a firmware upgrade that can only (afaik) be done using an installer running on AR

I kind of wish major browsers would show a banner asking to enable JS, like they did for Flash and Java. This would discourage developers from using JS unless they really need it, and they'll think about graceful degradation. But brows

It's an example though; most of the time, French requires more letters than English to write the same thing. As my browser is configured in French, I regularly see interfaces broken because of these. Most of the time it's not a bi
