What Are You Doing Right Now

Just finished removing a few dozen silica desiccant beads from a laptop, all the cooling fans and USB ports. When I looked at the user with my best "Why you do this to me?!?" sad face, she shrugged and said "I dunno either".
In related news, the nail from a cable anchor removed from the plastic clip fits really nicely into a USB port and is long enough to get leverage to pull things out.

This just arrived.

We did that, it was MUCH better. And it stopped spying on us too!

I recall you saying that. My Yoga is from Dec 2013, pre spyware.. well, at least the current version. My wife's laptop from Nov 2014 had it though, I rebuilt that one the day of the announcement with Windows 8.1.

Ours was from November. The spyware window was something like September to January. December is definitely in the spyware window.
It was pre-admittal to the spyware. It was while they were spying had had not admitted although we had already caught them the month before here.

Is the Technical Preview that much better than 8.1?

A bit better, yes. And we had issues that Windows 8.1 would not work at all on the Lenovo because all of the available drivers had been compromised with the malware and caused sites, like MangoLassi, to not load. So it literally wasn't a viable option. Windows 10 TP was the only Windows OS that would work on the device at the time that we got the laptop.

Initial success, yes but victory will be if she continues.
