    There you go. What was valid 3 years ago is not valid anymore. Heck, what was valid last week isn't valid anymore, if there happened to be an Adobe Flash Player update in the meantime.

    Too Long; Didn't Read. You put that in at the end to give useful info to people who couldn't be bothered to read the whole post.

    @ ratdude747, the second half of my post wasn't pointed at you two. I just explained why i don't do that myself anymore.

        strange, when i was in Australia 12 years ago the law didn't even bother with torrenting, has that changed, or is it a personal thing?

        You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.

        Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

          Plenty of people do torrents here. It's always been illegal (At least if you use it for something you were supposed to pay for), but it never stops anyone. I chose not to, partly because it's illegal, and partly because I've never had a problem with malware and want to keep things that way.

                I do not use torrents, rss feeds, or anything that requires installing a client software anymore. If I can't get something via FTP (whether wrapped in a web interface or not) I won't download it. I have even given up on using flash downloaders. I hate downloader stub .exe's too.

                  Asus rog strix rtx 2060s a8g graphics card turns on and does not give video
                  by Rhaverz
                  Good afternoon friends, I have the same problem, the equipment turns on, when I connect it to the equipment and without connecting it to the HDMI or Display port with the integrated graphics of my equipment, the graphics can be displayed in the device manager with an error 43 but even if I try to update it "manually" it manages to remove the notice but it still doesn't work.

                  If I connect the graphic with the HDMI or Display port, the equipment turns on but it makes a long and 3 short beeps and does not give video

                  HP Envy 27 B210 AIO All-In-One Boot Problem
                  by cheebster
                  Hello! I have a problem with 2 machines, exact same model same issue.

                  They are HP ENVY 27-b100 All-in-One Desktop, Model No.27 B210

                  On bootup, they give both led and speaker beeps together, 3 long and 4 shorter beeps.

                  The power supplies are original HP 200W, and i bought 2 replacement PSU's that give the same result

                  Ram has been tried with or without, same result, and also tried a CMOS reset

                  The main board is HP CONFIT L04815-601 L04815-001 tpc-t008-27 sch3730-6050a2960801-mb-01

                  Toshiba EM131A5C-BS microwave oven- noisy EE16 2.7 mH inductor
                  by valvashon
                  This poor microwave oven was purchased by my former employer in 2019 (it's a 7/2018 build) and lasted for about 3 months before making a terrible noise when in use. I determined that it was the main transformer and contacted Toshiba. They asked for a picture of the cord cut in half and the serial number, and then credited my boss' credit card. Rather than sending it to the e-waste, I bought a transformer on eBay and thought I'd try flipping it. Discovered that used microwave ovens aren't worth much but in for a penny, in for a pound as they say. It sat in my basement getting kicked and shoved...

                  Repair Success! Middle Atlantic UPS2200R-IP
                  by valvashon
                  Yesterday I successfully repaired a Middle Atlantic UPS2200R-IP that had inadvertently been used as a surge suppressor at our transmitter site. It has already been replaced with an updated one but it's coming home with me now instead of being e-cycled. To be specific, this is the MA model that has the blue backlit display and has been discontinued, although this design may have been used in many UPS units including the smaller Middle Atlantic ones in this series.



                  Here's what happened: We experienced a brownout/surge at the site, which damaged the UPS and took our broadcasting...
