Sorry, but, I disagree. Replied to your rant BTW.
I know it can be frustrating especially in your case as you've been waiting
for this moment for a long time but, you'll have plenty of time to enjoy
those wonderful phones. Since COVID allot has changed and some not
for the better. I don't think we can see things getting back to what they were.
We had it good for many years and this horrible virus has burned out so
many of us. I have someone on the MSI forums who lives
in Morocco and trying to repair his notebook but, to be able to do so,
he has to buy a few tools which he told me would take him a couple weeks
to get the money to buy a screw driver and a brush. I just heard from him today
and now we are able to help out with the cleaning. I am just thankful that
I was born here and not else where.

You can disagree all you want. That's fine. It's also clear as day you didn't pay attention to what was said in my post you "replied" to.

Thank you.

I bought this for my wife for our 12th wedding anniversary. It matches the necklace I got her for Christmas in terms of stone and cut. I bought 6.5" bracelet, though.

Finally decided to go ahead and delid and replace solder with liquid metal in this old beast. Got the parts, now gotta find the time to do it. Should be able to get a very cool 5.3 or so GHz all-core. Should stave me off until 15th or 16th gen (or AMD Zen).

As a follow-up to my earlier Submersible Utility Pump post I purchased another one.
This one is a “Automatic” Submersible Water Pump that comes w/ a 33 foot power cord.
The Automatic part according to Item Info. says it will start automatically when water reached 5/8” deep & shut off when it reaches 1/3” deep, I like those #’s.
During my last heavy rain the water puddle in the back yard was around 20 feet x 10 feet w/ another feeding it that was around 6 feet x 6 feet.

I made a drawing using excel to show my setup plan (attached below).

Edit: Well guys, I setup another "Sump Pump Drain setup", this one near the house rear door that has pavers
but the area is lower than the grass area. This new setup is 3- 12"x12" stepping stones deep w/ 5.5" Landscape edging on 3 sides w/ concrete backup about 2" wide for strength. I also put concrete sloped @ the front, sloped to the lowest stepping stone.
*Photo attached is partially built new setup.

FYI, you can do the same thing in Word being it can also do tables. But yeah, that look more like Excel

Agreed. I just thought it was nifty that Excel was used. Personally I would of gone straight to Photoshop but Excel or Word would most likely be faster

I never thought anything of was wrong with the first one. I was simply stating to @antspants that tables could be done in Word as well.

Excel would be the easiest though, but whatever you used got the job done, so that's all that matters
