My next door neighbor was a alcohol&beverage inspector. She still refuses to drink draft beer.

I like it - in combination with good dark soy sauce and fresh ground black pepper.

It’s typically a built-in function. Flashlight on/off is available as a quick tile in more recent versions of Android.

“We’re accepting apologies today, too, for anyone who feels the grace in offering them.”

...Even though they have no incentive to do so.”

Fine. I wash them anyway.

I’ve done the same thing. But, as you’re protecting via IP addresses assigned by DHCP, it’s not all that secure. IMO, you’re fine if you have separate WiFi access points, each on a LAN (or vLAN). Create rules so connections coming in on that ‘guest’ vLAN only has access to the Internet. (Many people call this a…

+1 on Qotom - and on pfSense. Residential pricing for a real firewall.

If you have DD-WRT, it’s simple enough to put it into wireless repeater mode, so the neighbor’s WiFi looks like an ISP. I haven’t seen this done on anything faster than an N600, and you end up reducing your available bandwidth by half. Another approach would be to use a DD-WRT in wireless client mode (or another…

Looks pretty good. I usually set all this stuff via settings, the registry and the policy editor - and have to re-do it every time there’s an update. This not only puts all the switches in one place, but explains what each does - and when you start it after an update, it’ll bold the ones that that update ‘fixed’ for…

Speaking of headlamps, my fave is the Streamlight Bandit. If you care about your night vision, consider the one with a red LED (it can switch between red and white light). USB rechargeable. Batttery’s non-changeable, but the lamp is cheap enough that I don’t care. Lightweight, clips to any billed hat/cap. Nice broad…

A couple of years ago, I was working in Auckland, NZ. One place always had the best ever eggs Benedict. I wandered into the kitchen (NZ’s pretty casual), found the person cooking the eggs, and asked him what his secret method was. He told me it was all about the freshness of the eggs. He had a local egg supplier “chook…

A building I sometimes work in has a WiFi SSID “FBI Women”. Might actually be legit - although if it is FBI probably stands for something other than Federal Bureau of Investigation. There are a couple of salons and a health club in the building.

I think that’s why they made a deal about it in the papers. 

Do NOT skip over the clip of Adam Schiff’s response. When I finally got ‘round to watching it, I realized it was one of those ‘finest hours’ moments.

Potuguese - but I learned ‘by ear’. (spent some time in Treceda for the bull runs). Took me a bit to figure that the currency (escuda) was what folks meant when they said ‘scooch’.

Absolutely. In the mid 60s, some kid went to close to a nesting swan in the Boston Gardens. Swan attacked him - broke his leg. Pretty sure it was the femur.

Well, or his Mom

Perfect example of the current Republican playbook: Charge the Dems with doing things that you have been doing youself.

I bought a Wali dual-arm mount ($50 at amazon) and it’s surprisingly good.
