I solved them by using the 7.3.1.42 version driver.

 

I was consistently unable to get a connection with the newer ones. I uninstalled the existing driver, rebooted, then ran setup included in the zip. Set up an adhoc network, and connected with the peer device and everything worked perfectly.

Here's the working driver:

Some people are discussing whether or not the JHU student who killed a man who broke into his home should be charged.

Proportional force and legal requirements to respond with proportional force are sensible, but I think it's pretty clear that this student was engaged in self defense and not maliciousness with an excuse.

The student says that the burglar lunged at him, and he defended himself with the sword in no more than 2 cuts, according to police. He severed the burglar's hand, and then cut open his chest. The burglar died from the injuries, but the student called emergency services and cooperated fully with police.

It seems most likely to me that he acted to defend himself until he was no longer in danger, then immediately sought emergency service intervention like a socially responsible person.

He was released yesterday afternoon. I do not think the Maryland AG should press charges.

Any time, any where someone writes "*shudder*" in a body of text, that entire body of text can safely be discarded as worthless.

Including this one.

That is the sound of something snapping.

A hobby like motorcycling is a great way to illustrate this. I had someone today tell me that I should not lean in the direction of the turn while turning on a motorcycle.

Dear friends, adventurers, and fellow Paratheoanametamystiks, I exercise great privilege as Pope in announcing and describing for you a new holiday to celebrate Our Lady of Discord: Irrefflery.

Many of your friends, relatives, and loved ones may be inclined to celebrate an ancient pagan ritual, Eostre, on the first Sunday after a full moon following the vernal equinox. In your travels you may have been invited to some number of events of celebration of this ancient Pagan ritual, and in many cases you may find that the celebrations have diverged wildly from their original roots as all things which fall under Eris' purview are prone to do.

I offer now a celebration which is quite distinctly a further iteration of this celebrational drift, Irrefflery, which is a very simple ritual that everyone may enjoy. The core elements are quite simple meaning it shouldn't be too hard to keep it straight after a lot of drinking on Saturday or to organize at the last minute. Irrefflery is a self describing celebration as its form can best be described as a portmanteau of irreverence, waffles, and revelry. Core to Irrefflery:

Zombie Movies

Many of our friends who celebrate Eostre do so with the conviction that a historical figure of admiration rose from the dead. In an expression of friendship and mutual appreciation we will celebrate with theatrical performances of many people doing the same thing!

Waffles

Waffles are delicious, and what better cause for celebration is there than eating some?

Celebration

Gather your friends and enjoy Irrefflery together so that the joy of this holiday can spread throughout the world!

Enjoy Irrefflery each year! Or don't.

I am trying to do a very simple small amount every morning. It takes me all of two minutes to do a feeble number of crunches and pushups, not enough to break a sweat, but enough that the muscles are starting to feel tight.

I'd like to get back in the habit of doing more exercise regularly, but every time I try, I push beyond what I can recover from in a reasonable time span and end up not doing it at all, so maybe starting off with something pitiful and slowly building from there can let me get back into the swing of things.

I'm a little disappointed with myself for having gotten to this stage, but at least maybe this will work and I can do something about it.

Looking at this past article is a good start as most of the problems to be solved are similar or the same.

It would appear that the newest version of Typo is smarter than me. That's frustrating.

 

How do we play with page breaks, anyways?
