Rice isn't eaten much around here either. That IS NOT the point tho. |
78 |
The point is that having two ports is not the default. As I said |
79 |
before, if what you claim were even remotely true, then board sellers |
80 |
would be listing boards with two ports by huge numbers. They are not. |
81 |
It is rare even. Well under 10%, likely less than 5%. That is FAR from |
82 |
being a default. Anyone claiming otherwise is delusional. |
83 |
|
84 |
Given your other posts, I've come to the conclusion that you are truly |
85 |
living in a world that is not based on reality. You live is some bubble |
86 |
that you have created where what you think is the only option. You, |
87 |
even when shown facts, can not accept anything that doesn't fit in your |
88 |
little bubble. |
89 |
|
90 |
You posted that two ports is the default. Others and myself posted that |
91 |
is not correct. I even went to the trouble to prove it. Yet here you |
92 |
are still posting that it is when you have yet to post a SINGLE fact to |
93 |
back up what you claim. I posted how I researched it and did so in a |
94 |
way that you should be able to do the same, and see it for YOURSELF. |
95 |
Yet you refuse to even do that. You are right even when you are proven |
96 |
to be 100% wrong in your little bubble. Unless you can prove that |
97 |
having two ports is the default, by posting links to a major |
98 |
manufacturers website or a major seller, you are talking BS and nothing |
99 |
else. There is no point to you posting anything else. Post proof or you |
100 |
are wrong. Get over it. Back up your claims. It shouldn't be hard if |
101 |
you are correct. It took me about 5 to 10 minutes to do my research and |
102 |
about the same to post it. |
103 |
|
104 |
Have a nice day. Enjoy your little bubble. |
