Havent been on ECF much this year, life threw some curve balls my way.

I do think it is funny, if not ironic, that most advertisements on ECF are now for alternative vaping of green stuff, and not Pluid.
rather ironic, isn't it though? ;)

running ublock i don't see any of that stuff .......

I got a message from an old friend on Facebook messenger a couple of days ago saying that he had seen my name on a FFA list. I told him it must be someone else. He responded back that he received $100,000 from them and I should see about getting mine. My response was "you sure type good for being dead for over 3 years.....MF'r".

Three of my four Windows 10 machines use them. They are generally useful for giving hard drives speeds like SSD. Well for most accessed files anyway. Windows 10 with a hard drive and Optane memory can boot up in seconds (works similar to a RAID setup, but more like a HDD/SSD hybrid). They can also be configured as just another SSD too.

And then there is this:

While waiting for it to be delivered I learn that the memory chips need to run hot during write or they will degrade faster, only the controller needs cooling.
The label on mine is actually a thin piece of copper and in need of nothing else.
Then I replaced the $70 eBay video card with one I paid $500 for.
