Then it is probably heavy stripped, you can try to put a rubber band in front of the screw driver trying to unscrew it, I don't think there are screw driver extraction bit for that small size screw. You should invest in a precision screw driver kit.

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency
  • AngryCinnabon @ AngryCinnabon:
    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.

    anything that offers trump an opportunity to become an actual dictator
    is bad in my book, i could care less if it wasn't for that...
