It's always fun when you realize you've overlooked an anime, and get to watch one from new in your favorite genre; or find an expansion on ideas you already enjoyed.

In case you ever wondered: It costs about $40 to pack a computer case properly, if you do it yourself, and it takes quite some time. It's also very difficult to find appropriate boxes. That's why so many people gamble on having the carrier pack it, even if they shouldn't.

Ford's official response to my potentially deadly Ranger Raptor issues was to, and I'm not kidding, try another dealership. @ford has just insulted one of the most competent dealerships I've ever encountered with this action. This is Ford's problem. NO dealership can fix it.

Many times, I've wiped one of these face-plates down with alcohol, it's left a slightly chalky residue. Then, I can wipe that right off with upholstery cleaner and it doesn't come back. It's fine. Not sure why that happens.

It bugs me when people deny flaws in things they like. Sometimes they are defending the product or the brand, but quite often they're only defending their own purchase decision.

This is how I got that Hercules card. I'd forgotten where it came from. 🤣 You've also seen that sound card a while back, but I'm sure I'll post it again after a while.

Packing peanuts are brilliant, and do their job wonderfully. They're just not idiot-proof. If you can't make them work properly ... Well, I hate to be the one to tell you ... 🤣

Not liking 10 was not liking the UI. Not liking 11 is not liking the entire concept. It's not the same. I can get used to a UI.

I really wish I could use these drives. I'm sure they'll all work for many years without a hiccup, given how they're wrapped and packed. The problem is they'll block the fans on any case I've considered using for the 98 machine. 🤣 I need some actual flow on the Voodoos.

They really do look cool, as well.

Who had Expert Home Design in the '90s? This was so much more fun than it had any right to be. 🤣

I'd find some images of it in action, but that's a tough search.

That's one way to sell a dead drive. 🤣

Do not buy an @Ford product. ESPECIALLY do not buy a Ranger Raptor. It features potentially deadly faults, such as shifting it's own drive modes into off-road only configurations while you're driving down the highway, or in a parking lot, or slowing down, or just generally doing whatever. You're fine, you're enjoying the vehicle, and than BAM! You're in 4WD and it's trying to shift to low range, which, if it actually did, would rip the transfer case right out of the vehicle at highway speed. Imagine being shifted into 4WD during a turn on wet pavement. That would, at the absolute least, suck. I'm not even going to get into all the rebooting and failures of the infotainment system, in general. The specific problem with the Raptor is all of the off-road features are controlled by that computer. That same computer technology is powering ALL of their vehicles. I repeat: DO NOT BUY A FORD!

And no, I'm not deleting this. I'm trying to save your life. Do not buy a Ranger Raptor.
