Meanwhile, back at the Facility in the Middle of Nowhere, the Cable Company
came out to install the cable modem (and cable TV while they were at it).
Since our current firewall was still at Condo Conner, the cable modem was
attached to Rob's
computer.
Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but this is a cable modem and
they usually lock onto the MAC address of the network card they hook up to.
But we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
But for now, we have connectivity at the Facility in the Middle of
Nowhere.
Oh, and cable TV. With about five zillion channels, including TechTV, which
Spring is thrilled
over.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
