I’m going to guess it was because someone didn’t notice the publish date on it.
I’m sure you never make trivial mistakes. Be proud of that.

You are correct, I’m very proud 😎

I did notice it mentioned the event took place in 2011, but didn't think much of it, as stories often surface only many years later because someone made some comment and facts were only discovered later.
But in this case...you're right, the CNet article is from March 2013.
ChatGPT strikes again?

The original article that CNET cites is from 2013 too.

Well, I would hope CNet's 2013 article isn't quoting an article from 2023...

You’ve seen Back to the Future? 😂

The thought did cross my mind that some CNet employees might have access to a time machine...and that scared me.

Interesting question.
Insider News forums has all of those stories. So you could add a comment this one and ask?

Hi All,
My home machine that gets used as for Email, Typewriter, Odd Video on YouTube etc. none of the fun things just boring stuff, general utility stuff. Has started making the USB device clunk/ping sound at random. So two options, close the door so I can't hear it or have a look and see what's causing it. Digging in Device Mangler I found to things both related to the audio set up with issues. It appears at some stage a RealTek driver was or is being used. Odd as this is a Dell box with no fancy audio used or installed. I have another machine that gets used for recording and the like on the network if any machine has RealTek (weird little crab like thing, sitting on the task bar) it's that one. Could Win11 update down loaded and tried to auto update the drivers for each machine and just applied the wrong one to this PC? Am I being paranoid? (quite possibly) but  Glenn

It's unlikely that Win11 has downloaded the wrong drivers. OTOH, I did see similar problems on my daughter's portable - the audio which was working perfectly suddenly stopped working.
I would try removing the drivers completely (click on the "delete driver" check box when removing the driver), reboot the machine, then try reinstalling the drivers from the internet. That's what worked for me.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

I'm on holiday and in the vicinity of Prague at the moment, so I will not be visiting CodeProject very frequently the next two weeks.
The house we rented is rather primitive, more of a cabin in fact with only a Huawei modem that uses mobile internet. The road that leads to the cabin is a dirt road, till now we managed to use it without damaging our car, but if we had known all this before, we would not have rented the cabin.
The strange thing is that all reviews on the internet about this cabin were very positive, and none mentioned the bad road 
Biking is also disappointing, as there are almost no separate biking lanes over here, only near Prague we could do some decent biking

Rick,
You are vacation, so take a break from CP.
Hiking will probably be better for you and yours and safer than biking, but I hear you.
Nice to have a car for convenience and comfort when on vacation.

We thought so too and took the car to Cesky Krumlov, once we left the winding local roads behind us the trip went very smooth on the excellent Czech toll roads. We visited the village and castle on foot and had an excellent traditional Czech meal with beer on a cozy terrace near the water

Excellent.

Of course they are all positive.

To fully enjoy the situation, I strongly recommend watching "The Cabin in the Woods (2011)" after midnight. You can thank me later.

Thanks, I've already seen it, but it pales in comparison to the Czech horror!

Is the cabin at least large enough to cache a small Czech?

If he does not bounce
The size would not be a problem if the ladder to the bedroom upstairs wasn't that steep, we prefer not to use it and sleep downstairs.
