So I figured, “Hey, why not try it and see if AI Google can help?” And since this hobby has been around a long time and this is not rocket science – although, to be honest, it is close - there is a lot of already tested and verified info about doing this. This means AI has a lot of source data to pull from, without too much worry over error. ....so let us see how it did. What I specifically asked AI Google about was the practical limits for downsi...
