Rearranged each made threw me for while because of the anagram inference - nice little clue

Thank you. That, of course, was the intention. I got the idea from one of Griff's clues a while back that caught me the same way.

I fell for it and never strayed from the incorrect path. Nice bait.

Give up; you have been on this for more years than I can remember, and seem to have got nowhere. Meanwhile the rest of the world is happily implementing their Bluetooth systems.

Dear Microsoft ... I don't like your operating system. Please fix it. Thank you.

Go outside, face into the wind, and start to pee. It will accomplish roughly the same thing.

This is the fundamental problem with FOSS. You get what you pay for. While open source is great to ensure trustworthiness of a product, using something you don't pay for means costs will always be cut. And it's usually on the support side of things.

Friend of mine, decades ago:
"But that's the beauty of open source: if it doesn't do what you want it to do, you can fix it yourself!!!"
Me: I already have my plate full, maintaining my own software; why should I take it upon myself to fix other people's broken software on top of that?"
Him: You just don't get it...You could, if you wanted to.
Me: That's not much of an argument, I wouldn't, whether it's closed source or open source. Fix your sh*t.

Err...except of course you don't need to write it from scratch in the first place. You know the same condition that follows from the "plate full".

That's not the point I'm making. The discussion was centered around support. Now, to the point you're making not related to my point... Some people want to tinker. Some people value their time. I didn't say being able to tinker is bad. I said FOSS generally has no real support.

Agreed, on both accounts.

Is it? Sure, it sounds great in theory, and sure, anyone can examine the code for bugs and security issues, but how many actually do? And of those few people how many have the knowledge and skills to recognize an obscure security issue if they saw one? Do they also go through the code of all the FOSS npm packages the product incorporates? I'm skeptical.

It's pretty obvious I mean in comparison to closed source.

Like the man said, you probably don't need one.

I have a Seagate 5gb drive that my PC's are not longer seeing. I'm hoping it's not lost. Is there any good tools out there for diagnosing & recovering drives?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

I don't buy Seagates because that happens. Their drive controller circuitry just up and quits.
Mine have come back periodically. Randomly. But no recovery tools will work on a drive with a dead controller.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.
