@Squatch_XXL It's an old 64 bit processor

Is the first gen - Intel Core i7 (Nehalem) retro yet (2008)? 🤔

Is anyone else in the UK experiencing dump and run from @AmazonUK deliveries?
They don't even attempt to ring the doorbell, leave parcels in full view, sometimes dumping them by a neighbours house (this has happened to me 5 times now!).
Is it happening to you?

@kbsingh I will try that, good tip 👍
