Wasn't there a satellite that got lost in space due to EU/US teams disagreeing on the tracking units of measurement? I feel like I read this at some point...

Dare I hazard a guess you're referring to my pairs of Jnco's ? Apparently they're back in business, but caught shade for being overpriced.

Oh man, I think you may have given me the clue I needed. On my second MSI X570s Max Edge WiFi board this year, because of what I believed was a UEFI/BIOS Rootkit. Strange things keep surviving complete wipes/reinstalls of my OS. Secureboot disabled/enabled, doesn't matter. Plagued (among other annoyances) with some 10s sound clips that randomly play, network usage monitor showing I'm downloading half a TB a day, uploading a 1/4th of that, etc. ClamAV finding some Unix.Ransomware.eCh0raix process running (first install)...

Could you have solved my headache? Switch motherboard vendors altogether? Is my board affected? I built this thing less than a year ago, and money is tight. Need to stay on X570 chipset, too much invested in this AM4 build.

And sadly, this game runs too fast on modern hardware. Back then the programmers used CPU cycles as a timing advancement technique. So like a Pentium 4's cyclic operation kept the game playable. Try it under emulation on a modern CPU and the game is unplayably fast. Yes I tried slowing down the processor speed in Virtualbox, can't find the sweet spot % so this game is lost in time. Like the dinos.
