  • Honestly, I know a lot of people that do, but delivery address is less of a problem than other personal information.

    I always make fake derivative versions of my names for anywhere I but from so I can tell who is selling my information and not buy from them anymore. The address matters less. I’m not avoiding the government and “hiding out” fo fuck’s sake, I’m just avoiding having my data leaked like this. Any number of fake names that like up on the same address also dilutes these data sets the shady dealers try and ship around. The more names at any single address reduce the confidence of its accuracy, and therefore price.









  • Would be helpful to know which car model. You may just search for the model and keywords that describe your issue and see if others are complaining as well.

    What I think you might be saying is you’re connecting over Wi-Fi to your car’s hotspot, and then you’re losing all data? If that’s the case, I’m guessing your car is broadcasting a WiFi SSID, but there’s a feature unlock to use it as a client. Meaning your car itself will use it to send/receive data, but WiFi clients is another thing they want you to pay for.







  • 100% untrue. While a North Bridge controller can detect and attempt to set the clock frequency, there is absolutely no way to tell if both pieces of a mismatched pair will actually support the timings suggested or set by the controller, which will almost certainly default to whatever the on-board memory supports.

    That along with the unknowns of whether it attempts to set channel ranks, which is almost certainly NOT an option to manually configure in a Thinkpad.

    Not sure where you heard otherwise, but you’ve been misinformed.

    This machine is also working with memory soldered on the board which comes with a whole host of other unknowns, which is why you look up what the timings are first and attempt to match that.


  • If the RAM timings are not exactly the same, you’re going to have instability issues. This is why ts always recommended to install pairs of the same exact model and brand, the clock timings.

    I doubt that BIOS is going to give you the specs you need, but somewhere you’ll likely be able to find the timings and compatible memory for this machine. You’ll generally need something faster than what’s installed so it can step it’s timings down to be more in sync.
