Microsoft said Friday it will offer free security updates through the 2020 election in the United States — and in other interested democratic countries with national elections next year — for federally certified voting systems running on soon-to-be-outdated Windows 7 software. https://www.apnews.com/0391d06ba1c74e64af0d42de9ca05e93

Happy anniversary to me. Exactly 57 years ago (well, 57 years and two days ago to be exact) I enlisted in the U.s. Navy. Man, it seems like just yesterday. I got to see the world and it shaped the rest of my working life. At the tender age of 17, it was the best thing I had ever done.

I have been looking at off-road GPS navigators. It looks like the Garmin Overlander is in direct competition with the Magellan TRX7. Does anybody here have any experience with either one of these devices?

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.
