$106 for 1.2G cable in Oregon, US - when it works. Praying for the day we get fiber in our neighborhood - it was infinitely better. They DO list a data cap but never enforce it. I think if they did, the town would burn down the office.

Show me a consumer router that isn’t made in China. Even if we were to ban all imported electronics, who would fully trust domestic? I think the best approach is DTA, man. Don’t. Trust. Anybody.

Allegedly. I personally knew a pilot who flew weekly trips in the 70s to Asia in C-130s filled to the maximum load of gold. So I have my doubts. Several years ago there was a push from Congress to inspect the gold reserves because nobody had laid verifiable eyes on it in a while. But I do not know how that worked out. It’s a great rabbit hole for you to follow - let us know what you find!

With skill and determination

For literally decades, it has been Stray Cat Strut. Although fairly recently, it has switched to Epic by Faith No More. The latter I cannot explain. The song is pretty terrible., and I’m not a fan of the band. It’s gotta mean something, right?
