    What is the worst chair you ever purchased?

    Steelecase LEAP. The most uncomfortable chair I have ever owned. Thank goodness I got it for free when my ex-wife company moved to a new HQ. They paid $1200 for for each of them. I grabbed three and gave away 2. Should've given them all away.

    Cablemod 12VHPWR Causing Major Problems

    I wanted white cables for my EVGA PSU and bought the complete set from EVGA. Never an issue.I find that the CableMod stuff uses wire that's too thin. 18 gauge over 16 gauge. This could be a problem if they are long extensions, IMHO.

    Amazon Prime Video will start showing ads on January 29th

    The original Amazon Music wasn't bad but now they want extra money for the exact music tracks I used to listen to for the price of Prime. So I don't bother with the music side.

    how many guys in this forum are IT pros?

    NJ Transit GP40-2, F40. No SDs as we're passenger only. We operate and maintain some Metro North GP40 and F 40 that were upgraded to Dash 3 by Progress Rail but they did a crappy job with the upgrade. We also have 5 MPIs. Bombardier which is sadly now Alstom.

    Password manager

    I don't use one. I have 15 passwords that are 13 to 16 characters long with letters, numbers and symbols in my memory. The key is that you don't let the device remember your password. I have to input them every single time and almost everyday.
