There are some here that would argue that in my case there are worse tragedies that could befall mankind.


Good point!
If 37,605 trees fall in the forest, and nobody hears it, did it make any noise?

It's mutating:

I'm not sure it was here, but a couple of days ago I got a pop up notification that Chrome needed to install an urgent update. Without thinking much, I clicked on the update link and then it tried to install something called the All Browser. I quickly stopped that. My research shows that the All Browser is a legitimate browser, but I'm not supporting a company that uses deceptive tricks.

I'm getting a new problem with BI this morning. I've repeatedly been getting a Request Blocked message when trying to read threads today. It says that either I'm doing something forbidden or else the site thinks I'm a bot. It suggests I contact f5sports customer service with my IP address. So far, waiting 5-10 minutes has reset things for a few more tries. Anyone else seeing this?

I wouldn't click on any link on this website except in a post by someone you trust.
