Not exactly a jigsaw puzzle, but am playing The Talos Principle, which is a puzzle type game, like Portal (kinda sorta). Also pretty proud of this NYT Crossword accomplishment, so far:

It's quite possible the local dns to link where the images go is borked in the modem because of a weak wifi connection. Try rebooting the modem to clear it, and it might just fix the problem.

I've had Vegemite at an Australian Day party once. Tasted like salt paste.

Peanut butter Almond butter Hazelnut butter (what the original Nutella was before they added a ton of chocolate, but I'll take that too) Love all of them for the protein (and the taste), but I don't like all the fat.

HughesNet advertises "watch the latest videos", meaning: Short clips like you see on social media. They say nothing about being fit for the purposes of being a source for watching TV - fulltime or any time. No satellite internet is for various reasons. If you're given a plan with a data limit, it's up to you to manage what you use that data for and it's up to you to determine if your budget can handle the cost. There is absolutely no way a salesperson can characterize what amount of data is needed because they would have to know what service(s), what resolution, what devices were used, and with what regularity. Not sure that mindreading should be required and just saying 'I stream TV' certainly isn't sufficient.

Plus, they're moaning at an off-shore subcontractor who likely makes pennies on the dollar to get that abuse. At some point I'm sure they're like "tell it to the hand".

The usage meter is probably working fine. You probably just didn't know that new installations get their data refreshed periodically during the first 20 days to ensure the system is working correctly.

Blacklist doesn't prevent you from connecting to HughesNet's email server. However, it might prevent someone from receiving an email you send from it IF and only if their email server subscribe to that particular service for filtering purposes. Secondly, an SPF-softfail just means that email server's IP is not listed in their DNS record as a valid email server. Why is irrelevant to this issue, but worthy of note. That said, that doesn't mean the recieving server will reject the email (quarantine as spam).

I have it digitally, which is fine for me. I can't justify the space for what I would have accumulated and disk space is cheap. I used to have lots of long boxes of golden age comics (40s-60s) back in the mid-60s. They disappeared in one of our moves. Worth adding that I used to have original newspaper-style copies of Rolling Stone and the first few years of Heavy Metal in the 70s. My hoarding skills started early.

One of those things that there are likely different variations depending upon region, tho it's quite possible she uses some ricot in there as well. I'll let you know in a couple of months... lol

My wife's father used to make something that phonetically sounds like 'abitzagane': Basically a miss-mash of potatoes, veggies, mushrooms, olives, angel hair pasta, and other things all sauted in olive oil. We've tried looking for how it's actually spelled. I've even asked native Napolitans and they had no idea what I was talking about. Edit... 'abitzagane' was a meat pie. What I described was another thing phonetically called 'ayaloya'. I got lots of phonetics.

I posted the correct settings precisely. I have them set that way in Outlook and it works with no issues. I'm afraid there's something wrong with your client. It's possible it's either not setting the correct port (using the default instead) or some other issue.It was recommended some days ago that you contact your client's developer as a fallback to try to figure out the probkem. If you've not done that, well, there's nothing anyone can do for you other than what's already been done/discussed. Good luck.

I feel fancy when I eat them as well =). Mmm... either brizute (prosciutto) or gabbagul (capicola) with your mutsarel (mozzarella) [in NJ, pronunciation is everything]

Ok, I think I know what's going on.... They changed the app a little recently and can see how this is a little confusing. The number marked remaining on the circle is your actual current remaining amount as of right now. The number at the bottom (and very top) is the number on the graph from the beginning of a certain date (aka the maximum value for the day). If you touch the graph you'll see a marker move back and forth and the number at the bottom changes iaw the date in the graph. So you probably used 5.7GB during the bonus time today, give or take 100MB. Just for clarity, if you swipe over to the Anytime data, it does something very similar, but the number at the top combines your Anytime amount and any Tokens. Those numbers are then split out at the very bottom. But again, it represents the amounts at the beginning of the day, not current. Current is on the circle.

Might be better if you took a screen shot of the whole screen instead of trying to... well... I have no idea how you did that, but it looked like contortionism was involved. If it's an iPhone, you hold down the power button while clicking the home button. On Android, you hold down the power and volume down buttons.

Wish I had a pic, but we had Fettuccine Alfredo with freshly made (and pressed) pasta and homemade alfredo sauce on Christmas Eve. First time using the press attachment on the mixer and it worked great.
