not so much a tit-for-tat exchange,
Tit for tax? 😉
About 20 years ago, I lived in a shared house in the city. I worked nights, so if I left a download running when I went to bed, it would affect the others in the house. I saw a post online where someone was giving away a cable modem, and not knowing much about how they worked, I had an idea that I wanted to try.
The cable internet came into the house through a coax cable, rather than the phone line, and was split with a dumb splitter between the router and the TV. I used a spare splitter to run a cable to my room and plugged my modem in.
I tried it first on my day off so that I could check with my housemates if it caused any problems. It connected and everything worked with no issues, except that it only connected at about dial up speeds. We were going out for the night so I left it connected with some downloads running to see if it would stay connected. When we got home, the downloads that should have taken a few days were done. A speed test showed that I was getting around 35Mbps, when the fastest speed we could pay for was 4Mbps.
We later found out that apparently the street was sharing a connection (to the cabinet I think, it’s been a while), and because my modem wasn’t registered, it was just getting whatever was left over. At night, when everyone was in bed and their devices were off, it was going a lot faster. It didn’t last long, only a few months, but we took advantage of it while we could :)
Look for the QxR group. Lots of their releases include special features, and often as a separate folder.
I’ve got a CF-25 here. I keep meaning to find the power supply and seeing if it still works :)
My wife doesn’t just do this, she irons t-shirts inside out to protect the design, but also folds them with the design on the inside. Most of my t-shirts are black, so I have no way of telling them apart without unfolding them…
Two phew
They’re reusable earplugs 👍
Get a fairly stiff brush, it feels really good, like scratching an itch that you couldn’t reach :)
I really enjoy reading, but I can’t picture a scene, or what characters look like. It can be a bit confusing at times, but doesn’t usually take away from the enjoyment.
As an example, my favourite sci fi author Randolph Lalonde (great independent author, buy his books 👍) had a scene in a recent book where some characters had a shootout in a warehouse that held several spaceships. The ships were all at least a few metres long, so the warehouse was huge. In my head, everything was centred on a small area around the characters, and I could sort of picture them being within a few feet of each other.
I couldn’t picture any details, it was as if he had written that ‘the man stood near the woman, and pointed the gun towards the crates’, even though the scene was well written with good descriptions. My brain couldn’t translate the description into a layout in my head.
I still really enjoyed the scene, but every now and then it was as if my brain realised that things should be further apart, or one character should be taller than another, for example.
USB floppy drives are pretty easy to buy online now. I bought one from either Amazon or Ali Express a little while ago, and it works perfectly :)
It’s a great series too. I’m overdue a catchup 🙂
Ken. I don’t get out much.
How big is the pin?
‘YOU! You know what you did! Make it right!’
Then sit back and look at all the guilty faces.

I don’t know, heavy things attract other things, so maybe it is alluring ;)
I’m currently on 18 in the morning, and 9 in the evening. I have eyedrops twice a day too. I’m in my mid forties now, so will almost certainly increase that number as I get older.
