- 14:24, 4 May 2022 diff hist -66 Troubleshooting guide/Hardware problems →Stability testing: Loose heatsink mention (with reference because we can, also it happened to me). Removed "replaced on sight" caps note since there's no consensus on all of them sucking even beyond 2008 (and I would not like to be more specific here)
- 10:27, 4 May 2022 diff hist +589 Troubleshooting guide/Hardware problems →Motherboard: More badcaps. Not sure if I'm not placing undue prominence on that.. just because it happened that of an old potato I had hit the problem. But I would guess this is exactly the kind of voodoo that has people going mad their pc is haunted?
- 23:31, 3 May 2022 diff hist +3,514 Troubleshooting guide/Hardware problems →Stability testing: Added temperature note for CPU (maybe thermal paste and a tightened heatsink could be mentioned but idk). Added motherboard section. It's overly crammed with references but the topic is so complex I couldn't really smooth it further

- 00:15, 17 January 2022 diff hist +934 Mass Effect References, references, references (demiurge blog, openal, low res textures, steam support key madness, minimum gpu). Reworked steam note to be technically more "dry" and "impersonal". Added "garrus face" SEO clickbait. Thanks to whoever leaked UE3 source
- 12:39, 16 January 2022 diff hist +170 PC gaming on a TV and couch →Chroma Subsampling over HDMI and HDTVs: added other source from the other thread with kind-of more-or-less opposite recommendation about game mode vs pc mode

- 15:55, 7 January 2022 diff hist +399 Sonic Generations →Issues fixed: added legit references for the optimus problem (for as much as they all seem so old and subpar compared to what you could probably do with modern wrapper tools)
- 18:33, 31 December 2021 diff hist -137 Mass Effect →Issues fixed: re-interpreted RTSS fix, added ransomware protection tip. "Nvidia ships broken profiles" sounds very time-specific (if it even wasn't the user to mess them). Issue with same symptoms is coincidental. Tessellation cannot matter with dx9.

The references and explanation may not be the wittiest on the shed, but I guess they give out the right sense of vagueness and despair that I had while trying to debug "15:1102P:-7A" (i.e. my network sucked)
- 22:03, 13 November 2021 diff hist +256 Glossary:Display wrapper →OpenGL wrappers: Added GLDirect, QindieGL and TitaniumGL. They are absolutely old.. but still I guess like they exist, they come with already compiled builds and some retro gamer may appreciate them.

- 13:28, 9 November 2021 diff hist +1,096 Red Faction: Armageddon Removed BSOD (I could confirm after manifest 2601925542257800323 they dropped CEG). Skip launcher and drmfree instructions (picked some wording from SR3 and Enter the Gungeon). Thanks to u/toilet_brush for the GOG save path and Mousebread for virtualstore

- 19:20, 17 September 2021 diff hist +64 Glossary:Display wrapper →Direct3D wrappers: Added D8VK. I don't think it's really that much usable yet, but hey development seems progressing quite well, and finding it out was already quite the luck.

- 15:00, 9 September 2021 diff hist -22 SecuROM Removed duplicated mentions of the thing still working on W10. The engineer never mentioned a specific "edition", and it was kinda redundant anyway. Added bsod comment.
- 14:38, 9 September 2021 diff hist +603 Drakensang: The Dark Eye →Availability: editing guide says only one "retail" row is allowed... But having it *both* drm-free and securom would make absolutely no sense though. A protectdisc patch also existed but I cannot find it anywhere.
- 18:43, 29 August 2021 diff hist +1,593 Genshin Impact Fullscreen is actually borderless in my testing. And even exclusive was still the exact same of borderless until I disabled fullscreen optimizations.

Also fixed the lacklustre explanation of the Steam CEG problem.
- 00:27, 26 August 2021 diff hist +354 Store:Steam →Steam CEG protected games crash or freeze the system (AMD Bulldozer CPU): turns out the stilt itself cannot make up its mind about the microcode version. Maybe the new one also made sure performance was okay, but I really can't say this myself.
