I GOT SOMETHING FREE - KIND OF

I just got a free Google Nest Mini for being a member of YouTube Premium. I took advantage of it even though I have no desire to have a smart speaker thing. Maybe I can trade it for a bottle of whisky? Actually since it's free I'll use it. Not like I'd go out of my way to spend this kind of money on something that will be listening to me all day LOL. Not really free though is it? I kind of sent them $12 a month for almost a year.

SHAW BLUECURVE GATEWAY REVIEW AND THEN SOME

Image
Speed tests are on the left. My shinny new A50 did the worst it seems. The PC was wired so it went blazing fast. The old S7 did darn good.

I got to say the installation was a nightmare. They want you to set it all you yourself and there is no documentation. There is a shinny app you can waste memory with or enter the IP to get it set up - either will work. If you want the app, use it from the start, don't try and use it after use used the browser to set up the gateway.

First off the lettering on the bottom of the modem is not friendly to my eyes. The other thing is, there is a vast amount of information on the bottom, so it was hard to pick out. Being the cable was too short to pick it up to eye level, I had to take a photo to see the password and so on. This was problematic as where I have it is low to the ground and I'm disabled and it hurt me a lot to squat down to do that. If I had thought of it - I'd have just written it all down when I took it out of the box but I didn…

SAMSUNG CLOUD IS GOING AWAY AND ONEDRIVE IS NOT DOING IT FOR ME

Image
Well here we are with my Samsung phone and the "photo back up feature". They have gotten rid of Samsung cloud and now everything is going to OneDrive. After I clicked OK to the switch, it STOPPED working altogether. It asks me every time I generate an image or video if I want the folder it's in to be saved to the list for syncing. For one thing as soon as it asked me to switch, I gave it a list of folders and it forgot them I guess and keeps forgetting them every single minute or so. The other thing is, not one photo has ever ended up in the folders at any time. Hell I left it over night one time and nothing. So it's not doing it's job. To make it 1000X worse, the OneDrive camera roll is not disabled by my Samsung phone and it was working just fine with saving the photos. So now I have to manually save every last thing to the cloud myself or it is not saved at all. Good work Samsung.

HOW TO SAVE THE BING SEARCH PAGE BACKGROUND

Image
If in chrome, you have your search engine set to Bing, when you open a new tab, the search page will show up. If you want the background from that tab, make sure the browser is maximized not small. Then right click on an empty space and select "view page source". The code for the search page will show up. Near the top there will be a link showing up that ends with your monitors resolution and ".jpg". Just click it and the image will show up in a new tab that is titled "th (1920x1080)" or whatever your resolution is set to. Then just right click the image and "save image as".

MOST OF MY LIFE I HAVE NOT SLEPT WELL

Image
Well I have had trouble sleeping since I was 10 years old. It's funny how many people tell me not to drink so much coffee and I'll sleep. I did not start drinking coffee until my late 20's and so I'm guessing that's not the issue LOL.
Some nights I lay there until I get frustrated then get up and take a blanket into the living room and sit in my recliner and listen to music with the headphones on until I'm relaxed enough to try and sleep again. It's about a 50% chance I'll sleep after that, but not always.
When I was a working man, this was a bit more of a problem. The ability to do your job well when you are in a place that needs you to work fast and with accuracy is inhibited when you have had 90 minutes sleep. Not to mention the ability to communicate well with others.
Speaking of communicating well, in my late 30's I started to get issues with the ability to recall words. I don't know if it stems from a life of not sleeping properly or just the…
