Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Sounds fantabulous... Wonder if it actually does what it says it does... Anyone have experience with this kind of utility?

    I'd say it is utter rubbish.

    Ye cannay change the laws of physics - a battery has a certain profile, no amount of software is going to change that. Yes, it probably switches everything in your laptop to ultra-low power mode, but at what cost? Does the laptop end up running like an old 486?
