I'm not sure if this is going to be seen, but I was temp banned or am still shadowbanned or something? Either or. If you do see this, yes, you are both right that I would be best t…

I used to see this happen with our old TV's at an old house with really bad grounding. I always wondered why it did that. We could be playing a video game or movie, and set all the…

Yes, but it defeats the purpose of the intent to share with as many relevant people as possible; since you have to build up that membership count in the first place. So it really s…

Yes, the drone approach is very tempting. But I still insist on us removing the need to use of manmade chemicals that don't exist in nature naturally... (That I am aware of...) For…

Hi there. You actually just kind of stepped into my ring here... sort of. Not an expert; but definitely more knowledgeable than the random person out there. I used to work with G.E…

The only game this doesn't seem to work on for me is Civilization; since I am often fixing the game now to work better or how it should have to begin with.

I personally wouldn't have any issue with this. At that point it's all down to who's more clever in their ruses and cheats.
