Today I had an email from Facebag reminding me to check Facebag, and listing posts I have missed lately. LOL, not going to check it more, as I am very happy since I stopped reading Facebag and Twatter. Why would I want to reduce my happiness by going back and reading them like I use[…]
With the new Eero system, it looks a lot better then the other one. I was able to set the access points to bridge mode with no real problem. It still has the need for a stupid app to configure them. But there a lot less in the app. I did have a minor snag[…]
Well I returned the Deco, as that was a waste of my time, I am glad I got my money back, as it would have been a waste of my money. So I picked up a Eero to try out, there are a few kinks in the system still, but it is looking more promising.[…]
The new Deco WiFi mesh devices came, and they are having the EXACT same issue. And they don’t even let you try with a web interface you have to configure it with a stupid app. They were being too cleaver for their own good on this, and that probably part of the problem. I will[…]
Well as noted before the WiFi devices I bought before did not work, they just failed to work. I hope the new ones work. I will set them up with they come Amazon says they should get here between 4:30pm and 7:30pm (it is 2:45pm as I type this) I am hoping that these 2[…]

As noted in my last post, I am looking at Usenet, I am also going back to IRC, there seems to be some life still in IRC, on freenode, I found my old stomping grounds of wplug, that seems to be dead, but the Linux chat room still seems to be alive, and along with[…]
As I have left social media, and web based discussion boards. I have decided to go back and look at Usenet. For those of you who don’t remember or don’t know Usenet was the original place where online forums and discussions took place, and they still take place there. I also found this https://www.blocknews.net/ looks[…]
