Welcome / open talk

I was thinking about it....the two hose bibbs I have, have a lead warning on them. They were sold online by that huge superstore that the world's richest man runs, and I thought, description saying no lead, ah, no big deal I won't drink from the hose anyway.

On September 22, Microsoft released new updates to their MS 365 products. The level is Version 2008, build 13127.20508. I read the details but there seemed to be nothing earthshaking about any of the fixes so I don't remember them. Everything I use MS 365 for worked before the fixes and they still work after the fixes so I'm good to go.

For those of us who have kids, are you for it? I'm finding that likely our interests are very different based on the ages of the kids.

For the first time in my life, I did a board of ed Zoom. Wow. Lots of whining from all fronts.

Made by 2 cos. in the USA?

JCI and Exide?

On one car, the battery is 4 y.o. and when the car sat 5 weeks, dead.

Just Friday, my wife's car sat 6 days and dead. All kinds of problems service stabilitrak and service airbag as a result.

I know it's a silly reason, but I accept that I will buy a new laptop about every 5 years. I like to have a business computer as I feel they last longer at home. This time I was going to get a business class device at a retail store (making it business hardware with a consumer warranty), but it changed....

Long story short, maybe the mfg's eBay store is a good way to get a good price.

I downloaded the new RLC/Speed cams, then POILoadered them to my GPS. The program said I succeeded in loading 38,000 locations. Such a nice even number, and I have a feeling I'm a mid-range POI Factory user in terms of location totals.

So, we didn't make our annual trip out west (read: Las Vegas) this year due to to Covid 19 and all the restrictions and unknowns. The outside of my Sierra has spider webs on it, due to the little use it is getting presently.

Hi All,
Not sure where to ask this question, please excuse if this is the wrong place...

I tried to upload a GPX POI file the other day (can't remember exact day, maybe a week ago) and I believed it had worked but I can't find it anywhere. Is there some place I should look to see the status of my upload?

Cheers,
Gord

Happy Labor Day!

I got a notification that there were updates ready to be installed on my Windows 10 laptop about 20 minutes ago. The update was to Microsoft Office 365 that upped the installed 365 package from Version 2007, Build... to Version 2008, Build 13127.20296.

of course the big one is AAA, and there are others.

Our cars are 2006, 2007, 2011, and 1998. None are new.

So back in 2014, my buddy invited me to a Redskins game, and I decided to drive the 1998. We didn't have the 2006 at the time and the 2007 and 2011 both had roadside assistance a la extended warranties.

Perhaps you can post on a new book you're reading, a new hobby you're taking up or about random finds as you finally get around to cleaning out the...

Anything to keep your windmill alive.
