why the **** does OTC have his 8th grade projects

That's just what happens when you let me work from home on my personal computer where the user profile folders have been copied from computer to computer since the early 2000s.

I'm pretty sure I don't have any the folders from the laptops I've switched to in the last four or five years.

I also move over my desktop folder inception-style every time I replace or reformat my computer.

Just take whatever was on the old desktop, keep anything that *might* be interesting, and put it in a folder called "Desktop" on the new desktop.

You can get back to about 2004 this way:

My kids don't save anything to the local drive; everything is on Google Drive or other cloud service. The idea of a file being anchored on a personal computer is totally alien to them.

If the driver is a short Italian guy in overalls with a mustache, he's having fun at your expense...

i am hugely into racing sim games, and yes, i did play the original pole position ? and no sarcasm - Mario kart is one of the best racing games ever

I’ve never built a sim rig though - mainly because I don’t have the space for one.

Same. could build the set. then add the bits.
It could be a spot of fun. SF Speed battles.

But the steering wheel and pedal box is 3k?
5k for a setup?
Crazy.
