As a "normal" driver, the pulsating lights absolutely are annoying... and don't even get me started on those loud ass pipes! Now, as a motorcyclist who has been hit head-on more th…

Too little info to provide any real advice besides the obvious (see below). Out of curiosity, though, do you recognize the name of the merchant? -- Anyways, there's a toll-free num…

If they're just now patching it, I kinda feel like they deserve to spend their weekend patching Windows boxes. > This bug was patched by Microsoft in June 2022 ...

You certainly don't miss an opportunity to make a meaningless, no substance comment just so that you can spam a link to some "project" of yours, do you?
