Apologies…

In my current location the Intarwebz connection SUCKS…

I think we have about 90 rooms sharing ONE access point…

It only seems to work for more than about 10 minutes as a time between 0400-0600 local.

AND a bunch of my favorites are blocked for “Category Weapons”… Sigh…

So it’s not that I’m ignoring folks, it’s just that I can’t get to y’alls sites or stay connected long enough to actually post a comment.

  1. Come on Ol’ NFO – get with the program would ya!?

    Seriously though, I hate conferences and hotels. I sympathize. Safe travels. Have fun.

  2. Category Weapons… is this in the US ?
    I’ve encountered this stuff in the middle and far east, but not here.

  3. You do seem to be running through a streak of bad/inconvenient accommodations, lately. I hope that spate is about over …

  4. Hey Old NFO;

    I am sure that it is a conspiracy to keep a person of your stature off Al Gore’s Highway….
    Sounds good though….Seriously, we will keep the internet fires stoked until you return.

    Enjoy the conference, hehehe

  5. There’s a free VPN you might be able to use to bypass web blocks:

    FrootVPN
    https://www.frootvpn.com/
    “Surf anonymously on the internet”
    “let us help you FIGHT internet surveillance”

    (of course, there’s no guarantee that it’s not operated by the NSA, but at least you can bypass hotel blocks [G,D,RLH])
