Anyone here build miniITX PCs?
Was wondering what everyone’s mini ITX builds were. I am thinking about a 9900k build with a 5700XT. This will be meant for the living room where I need freesync over HDMI to my Samsung freesync TV.
I already have a 9900k build in a mATX case but want something smaller for the living room.

In danger of losing your windmill?
Maybe you can share the last place your GPS took you and if you encountered any problems, or if you used it to seek out special places to go (like Thai Food, ice cream shoppes, etc.).
Anything to keep your windmill alive.

Waze Experience on a long trip
We drove from Toronto to Quebec city last week. I rented a vehicle with Carplay with the thought that I would connect my iphone and use Waze.

RR crossings
There are recent articles on GPS and RR crossings with both Garmin and Tom Tom receiving some credit.
I know my DriveLuxe announces RR crossing and wonder how many other Garmin devices offer the same.
Rather than post a link to an article, do a browser search for Navigation apps still lack railroad safety info the NTSB requested
Interesting.

Logging out
I wonder if others have this issue.
Several months ago, I began to logout from The POI Factory after visiting the site rather than staying logged on continuously except for the every week or two re-logon.
