At last, a reply that understands the difference between heat pumps vs resistive heating.

This tower has about a 20km radius on average due to topography, covers a stretch of the New England Highway and also covers the nearby village of Black Mountain. A good few hundred phones will be in range I expect.

The tower also has cells for Optus and Vodafone, but they are a significant minority of customers in this area.

Well, they do break guitars…

For cell / mobile phones, you’re sharing the capacity of the cell among multiple people.

In this example, a rural cell tower can provide up to 395Mbps.

It would only take 40 people watching Kayo at high definition (or any high definition video service) via their phone or a 4G router to saturate this tower.

For everyone else at this time, it’ll still work but even though they might have a strong radio signal (lots of bars), the internet will become slow.

Limiting monthly usage, or charging more for more data per month, reduces the risk of saturation.

You’re

I guess I’m used to mashing volume up if I like what I’m hearing. If you’re used to holding the button down instead then yeah it would be annoying.

On my Motorola…

Search in settings…

Yep.

In the mean time, on my phone at least, holding volume up makes it skip 30 seconds. Good if phone is with you at the time.

Yes. We get hints of this now and then when digital TV breaks up and only the moving parts are updating until the next key frame arrives.

Express VPN is pretty good at not getting blocked but you pay a fair premium for their service.

If you have a parallel null modem cable (or even a serial one) you can use the dos interlnk and intersvr command to access the drive from another computer. Not sure if that will help.

Entering the CHS values into bios was common practice on pre pentium level computers. This might explain why your usb adapter doesn’t work as the drive is too old to send its geometry.

Winks?

I forget why that happened. I think it was an increase in security required by Google with a newer Android version.

Same. Pretty reliable. Decent Web interface. Can be a bit glitchy if you replace your main phone though - still using smsbackup+ to mirror them to an IMAP folder for easy search and backup.

OK, so we just need to make a Firefox that runs inside Chrome :)

I wonder if the concern is that unlocking the phone might allow you to run some form of data recovery on it and thus obtain access to some of the previous owner’s info?

He left on a plane, Heading to Spain. He might still feel pain.

Well it’s a series of tubes - you might have been in a different one to bash.org (rip).

Glad I could bring this one to you :)

It’s a rather old reference…
