Re: thinking of a solid-state drive for W10 upgrade
You can get extension cables for the power leads (male on end, female the other) and then mount the SSD anywhere you want. There are also 4 pin molex (old style HD power) to SATA power extension cables available, and many computers have at least one unused HD molex power lead available.

I've also used Google Earth (google maps) to find the museum, and then was able to walk into it from the street view. Only part of the museum was actually on line, but most of the lower level was.

Re: thinking of a solid-state drive for W10 upgrade
SSD's (those with metal cases and SATA interfaces) wouldn't be affected by the minimal static generated by velcro. However, I used small magnets to hold one to the bottom of my case computer case. I wouldn't use magnets with a spinning HD, but SSD's don't care. I glued the magnets to a 3D printed mo...

Re: Tezuka and Atom, and Our World in 2021
It's possible that a form of AI will be developed (and probably already has) that will be able to interact with people to a degree that it would be impossible to tell that you were NOT interacting with a machine. That would still not be a form of AI that would be truly self aware, or have free will....

Re: ETHERNET TROUBLE
Do you have other devices that use Wifi (smart phone, TV, etc), and if so, do they work when the PC doesn't? Do you have both a laptop and a desktop, and what is connected with wifi and what with ethernet? I've had issues with my DSL modem 'dropping out' and not reconnecting (you can tell that from ...

Copy the ring tone file (mp3, wav) to your phone and in the settings menu select 'ring tone'. There should be an option for picking a user supplied file. I'm talking Android, I've never used an iPhone.

Re: Tezuka and Atom, and Our World in 2021
Many of the story plots in Tezuka's Mangas were echoed in those of motion pictures. For example, there was a story (I may not remember all of the plot correctly, and I certainly don't remember the episode title) in which a town hated robots, and took their anger out on Atom and another robot. Then t...

Re: 70th anniversary edition to be released Oct 2021
My father would be about the same age, were he still alive. Many people lived to that age, and beyond, and were still quite healthy. Chuck Yeager lived to 97, and was still flying jets in his 90's.
