      Attempting to resolve a WiFi issue that nly our SurfacePro's seem to be having.
      This SurfacePro is lucky we aren't next to the highway. I'd totally leave it in one of the lanes for a road train to run it over.
      Actually... I'm possibly walking distance to the interstate freight line (think freight trains)... hmmmmm

          Wondering what new catastrophes I will face today. Windows updates already gone roughly... Maybe I should go back to sleep until tomorrow...

            The Surface Pro's have wifi issues all the time. Really weak and you can get crazy errors.

              Run Windows/Microsoft Update. We've had a few updates that disable the wireless adapter until they are installed... really annoying but a update&restart seems to have fixed it.

                UG, damn! and I love the thing in nearly every other aspect (ok the usability for me personally isn't there either).

                  Wait - what? if Wireless is disabled, how do you get the updates? Or are you saying it downloads the updates, then disabled the wireless until you agree to install them? WTF!

                    They are already downloaded/installed, generally. Really the only step is doing the Update & Restart option... sometimes that doesn't show up without running Windows Update first though.

                        Dealing with two things I dislike quite a bit:

                        • Getting out of a comfortable bed
                        • Getting out of a hot shower

                        Oh well. Morning started, Morning @joy, hope the traffic cleared. At least it's another hot sunny day - we need the sun, but we could do with out the heat IMO... but it's a nice enough day.

                        Just being a Plugger because well,.. Plugger's have to plug.

                          First phone interview done... not really sure how it went... They said they would get back to me in a couple of weeks.

                            Thinking about lunch. might try to get out for a change.. been days since I've been out of the house it seems. Did go to the boys ball game last night, and the grocery - but little else. I'd make a good prisoner..

                              Out? What is this out you speak of? Will you be able to get onto the interwebz and watch funny cats while you are out?

                              Admittedly, lunch does sound good, lol.

                                  Trying to balance this thing on the steadicam rig. I'm not much of a Steadicam guy so this might take a while. Wish I had a DJI ronin.

                                    You trying to avoid videos brought to us by bouncyCam?

                                    I've never gotten to use the steady cam. I've seen a few (basically look like a big stick with a weight at the bottom)... is that what you are talking about?

                                      It's a lot of science to do with counter weight and such. some people are switching to 3 axis gimbals now though since you don't need to spend much time balancing it.

                                          In reality it probably is. If you are uncomfortable, you're more likely to be moving all over, making it harder to hold steady.

                                            Especially if you are running one of those things on your shoulders.
