Slow posting.

As I may have mentioned before, I am moving into a new computer.

At the end of the day this will mean more and better work. But for the moment this means days like today where it was spent nearly entirely on the phone with about 20 different people in Pakistan at Microsoft support call centres where I was passed around, hung up on, given bad numbers, and most amazingly, in the middle of a call, when I was already listening to hold music as I was connected to one person who was passing me on to another department, heard a recorded voice saying: “This number cannot be completed as dialled”. And this was when I was already connected to them!

At this point the best thing to do is get drunk for my own safety. The amount of adrenalin pumping through my veins is more than is healthy for a middle aged male.

The good news is, the computer overall is fantastic. It produces titled videos faster than ever and has minor to moderate improvements where it counts even if it is a little gimmicky  at the user interface.

Thank you again to all who helped me acquire this new machine (you know who you are) and once its configured, which I hope is within a few days, the output should not just return to normal but go up. After all, typing on a keyboard where there are actual letters and number you can see is a big plus.

Not to mention I only need to hit each key once to get a response!

The comments however continue to be exceptionally content rich. Please make sure you check them under the Reader’s links post. There is a sea change. And it happened because media like this allowed at least some people to reconcile what they see out their own windows with other people’s view from theirs.

The giants of media, who have clearly become 2nd rate advocacy organizations, are losing their power.

And that power is returning to where it should have always been.

We, the people.

There will be a post today with content.

Thank you for your patience.
