I have needed to take my Dell apart a few times to replace components (including a new SSD). I always start by drawing a diagram showing where each screw is on the case. I then place the actual screw on its correct place on the diagram as I remove them. It's then a simple matter to re-assemble correctly. Also Dell kindly provide a complete document with instructions and diagrams to change components.

Got it last year! Really interesting guy, if you haven't look up Tested on YouTube some of the builds he does are clever and he tells you why things are done that way (and the early one have Jamie from Mythbusters)

No rest for the weary! :laugh: There was only one day over the last two weeks that I did not work as I have a looming deadline for a new project. (self-imposed) As for retirees, they are a big part of why I needed to work through the holidays/weekends...also a target of my one and only new year's resolution. :) "Go forth into the source" - Neal Morse "Hope is contagious"

Mr. The Codewitch translates documents in several languages. He uses Grammarly to check his work, but one of the languages he translates is Western Juxtlahuacan Mixtec an indigenous language from Mexico, - and it's not common except in one part of Mexico. It crashes Grammarly. :laugh: Check out my IoT graphics library here: https://honeythecodewitch.com/gfx And my IoT UI/User Experience library here: https://honeythecodewitch.com/uix

On your iphone go to Settings -> select the top option (you) -> then click subscriptions. you can cancel them there. Jack of all trades, master of none, though often times better than master of one.

Well yes. You can't have it both ways. You cannot ask for protection against people copying X without specifying exactly what X is. Because you'd make it impossible for people to comply.

Correct, I was just using an example of something that obviously makes sense the way it is, without requiring much explanation. I had two examples in fact.

In this field, if they keep you for 10 years (or heck, even 5) you know you're invaluable, so they might as well keep you around for as long as they can pay you. Getting a developer familiar enough with a code base to change it without breaking it is costly. You stick with those employees who know their way around. After a while a junior developer might be cheaper in terms of compensation, but in terms of productivity, you should always stick with the old timers--you don't cut costs by getting rid of those people. That's an expensive lesson for those who need to learn it.
