I’m confused, in the article he said it was a brick to whoever has his stolen phone. How did they get his phone number to send him text messages? Did they crack the passcode and needed the iCloud password?
A juror was dismissed Monday after reporting that a woman dropped a bag of $120,000 in cash at her home and offered her more money if she would vote to acquit seven people charged with stealing more than $40 million from a program meant to feed children during the pandemic....
I used to write with my left hand for many things thinking that I would make the right side of my brain be more active and have more creative thoughts. It was an experiment that went on for several years when i was a messenger and I had a manifest that I had to fill out, it was real messy.

I just got my Framework 16 DIY version and I can’t install the primary SSD because there is a captive screw in the place that holds the SSD down and I can’t remove it so the SSD doesn’t stay held down. There is a screw for the secondary SSD and it comes out. Any ideas?...

I’m ridiculously excited. After being held up in customs for a few days, my FW16 DIY Edition (no GPU) has finally arrived. Unfortunately, I’ve got the rest of the workday to finish before I can get started....
Does anybody else have an issue where you can’t install the SSD because they put a captive fastener screw and it can’t be taken all the way out and you can’t get the SSD stick installed because it prevents it from being pushed down?
I made another post as this is looking like and RMA as I feel like to get to the bottom of the logic board may require more disassembly than I’m comfortable with. Like ungluing batteries.

Just coming to say this. Our hot water heater was turned up too high so the hot water melted the plastic cartridge over time and then it leaks and makes the hot cold combination incorrect.
