    If facts don't care about your feelings, then do feelings not care about facts?

    Russia, country where everyone can be a millionaire :D


    So my printing adventures are continuing as I got Canon Pixma AIO for 22 euros, 3 sales clerks and 1 store manager were looking for them over 20 minutes, so I think store did not got much of beef from this sale, but they were really nice and entertaining.

    I thought to setup this one wireless as I have wireless router, just for extra challenge. Real reason is that I would like to have bit more desk space and moving printer to other desk should help with that and make it easier to operate too as it would not be in dark cramped space, especially as button are on top.

    Epson vs Canon, I have really high expectations, after all Epson XP-245 was 25 or 29 euros and this Canon was 22 euros, if it lasts a year and prints more than 100 pages, then it will be lots better.

    Found new set of earplugs too, these have frequencies and db marked on table, so I can attempt to adjust EQ for them. Yes, I do listen music with headphones while wearing earplugs, it helps to focus by insulation sounds of environment almost perfectly.

    The copy of A Trick of The Tail by Genesis that I ordered came in today and I was very disappointed when I noticed that it wasn't the Definitive Edition Remaster (CDSCDX 4001) that I ordered but the original 1984 CD release (CDSCD 4001), as I would have preferred the near-vinyl sound that the 1994 Remaster features but it's fine.

    I mean it's still miles better than the 2008 remaster... ugh.... and it sits along nicely with my early CD copies of We Can't Dance and the self-titled album.

    Teacher is kind of a big word. I'm an Academy instructor.

    I teach extracurricular courses, mostly in programming, IT architecture design and networking.

    I've had a Cannon for years, ran quite a few ink cartridges and large boxes of paper through it.
    My iPhone 5c committed death on Monday, I got a tool kit today and promptly disassembled it, battery was good and screen was good, something else was wrong but I never will get the chance to, since I broke a pin on the logic board because my battery was missing the pull tab and I had to pry it out, since I lose all my data anyway I am getting a Samsung J7.

    The glowing arms on my dads bedside clock were getting a little dull, so he asked me to fix it. So I did using some glow in the dark tape, however, I had some off-cuts left over.

    Not sure if this counts as cruel, but it looks great on one of my sisters toys

    Anyyyywaaysss.... it’s time for RottenFitzy’s adventures with leaks!

    My 528i is unmatched in its ability to leak fluids. It now is leaking a brown, odorless, oily substance. The brake, power steering, and engine oil levels are fine, which leads me to beleive it is clutch fluid.

    Sigh. That’s annoying. Even after a gave it a new, shiny, dual core aluminum radiator.

    Got Fiber installed a few weeks ago.
    From 80/20 to 600/200 :)



    Was the first in my building to do this. Supposedly the network is 1000/200 ready, but they will unlock those speeds in a second moment.
    It's all very new, considering they installed prepared the whole Giga-ready stuff the past year only.
    I needed to do some work myself, as the modem used to sit next to the PC, and was connected to the phone line via with 20mt extension.
    Now the modem has to sit next to the fiber connector, so I placed a 20mt LAN cable, and a switch box at the end to connect other things.

    Quite happy with it so far :)

    Here only viable option is mobile internet, cost of anything else is a lot more, I just upgraded my 4G to 100Mbps as cost is 25 euros vs 22 euros of old 50Mbps. Sad thing is that minimum cost of internet is now 33 euros a month on normal list price. Few years ago I had internet that did cost under 5 euros a month, but they have bumped up the costs so much and anything less speed than their slowest currently available gets kind of throttling so it is not reaching to full speed.

    Update the speed to faster and you get full rate again.

    ISP business is kinda like Mafia policy, we have this offer you can't deny...

    Fastest fibre is 50Mbps, they don't advertise upload, that is something like 1 or 0.5 I guess, with mobile upload is about half of download.

    I have ping around 20ms national / 30ms international with this, so it is bit laggy still, but much better than mobile used to be.



    Nadeox has got really nice connection though, makes working much easier because not need to wait so long. That download speed is bit faster than UDMA66 old hard drive bus was able to do, that was 66 megabytes per second and 600Mbits is something like 75 megabytes per second :D



    I plan on getting new psu, case, z390 motherboard, SSD, sadly win10 license, some cooler and fans, 16gb ram, kb and mouse too, only thing I lack is funds for that, but I don't want to loose Win8 and good working system, but kinda would need to get better parts for 8086k as motherboard I bought was really bad. Well, maybe some day I get all that gathered, might take almost a year at this rate though.
