yep...gonna post some gameplay of the playground they have. it's a separate install and game.
just found out you can activate a cannon and change the ammo and change the cannon strength.

the actual game looks like it runs smooth. it's like my brain expects there to be 'slow down' when those tires are flying everywhere, but it doesn't happen

the engine is smooth as hell.
i have everything maxed out at 1080p and i'm still getting between 80-110 fps most of the game.

use a non magnetic screwdriver to tighten it.

I'm thinking a different screw because its just sitting loose in the socket @Orbital-Fetus

I got a second hand Mac desktop and the previous owner wiped it. However, the start page is asking for the previous owners log in info, which I obviously don't know. How can I make it "like new"? Or is this not an option? I found something via Google on Apple help forums bout getting into data utility but I was LOST and couldn't follow the instructions for a reset.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

maybe you need to press the harddrive closer to the chassis.
the screw may not be going into the body of the drive?

It's stupid easy to get around mac passwords, it's almost scary. Do a little looking around, but I think you just have to do this. It might sound intimidating, but it's easy (I did it on my previous hackintosh)

That worked for me until the 4tb I installed. That shyt is loud and moves around a lot for some reason. Even with the screws in, it still makes vibration sounds every once in a while 4tb though
