Use Logitech M215 wireless mouse with Windows 11 [SOLVED]

Recently I setup an old Logitech (now logi) M215 wireless mouse with my Windows 11 laptop. The process was not as straightforward as I expected because I needed to sync/pair my mouse with a new unifying receiver. The Logitech website can be rather confusing, so as of 2023/09/26 here are direct links to the Unifying software page: https://support.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025297913 and the download itself: https://download01.logi.com/web/ftp/pub/techsupport/unifying/unifying252.exe After installing the unifying software, it will ask you to turn your mouse off and the back

[ANSWERED] How long is the Ford F-150 Lightning’s bed with tailgate down?

If you are wondering how long the Ford F-150 Lighting bed is with the tailgate down, the answer is: The bed length with tailgate down is slightly over 91″ (or 7′ 7″) In metric, about 2.315 meters. Specifically, my truck bed length measured 91 1/8th inches WITH the plastic bedliner installed and the tailgate down. If you do not have the bedliner you may gain a half inch or so.

2004 Invoice from Pogo Linux for Vorticon64 PC workstation

Oldschool throwback below! This was my primary workstation during law school. This was when I was really expanding my business (working during law school) and setting the foundation for future growth. It was setup on a huge work table with dual monitors and I accomplished a lot on this system. 👍👍 Tech notes: RAM was upgraded after receipt of system. SSD was eventually added as well but the Raptor was a pretty fast HDD for back then. This was a

How to remove a stuck/broken blade from Dewalt XR jigsaw

Here are photos showing how to remove a broken jigsaw blade from the DeWalt battery powered jigsaw. I had to to this after a blade broke off. Someone else broke the blade and didn’t tell me, so at first it was hard to tell that there was any of the blade even stuck in there (it was just the small t part that locks in) and I couldn’t figure out why new blades would not seat properly 😂 Finally I
