If you have capped DSL or mobile data on your brosdband packages, make sure you are not inadvertently downloading Windows 10 using the wrong network connection.  If you clicked the upgrade icon that's been floating around the last week, you might have the download coming down your line as we speak.  I have a hidden folder on my boot drive which is currently sitting at 6.82 gb.  Probably still downloading in anticipation of tomorrow.  Considering I also have a laptop and my 2 kids pc's on Windows 8.1, that could be > 28 gb downloaded by the time this is over.  I'm on uncapped so I'll be fine, but I hope nobody is having a nasty surprise bill after all of this... Damn.  I should have been using squid on my server... #windows10   #preload

Clearly I've been away too long... Will docking at Zaonce, I forgot to request clearance.  As I entered the video advert channel I forgot my keybindings and hit boost.  I entered the station doing 250+ with my left hand trying desperately to bring thrust down to 0.  I screamed into the station at full speed and slammed on the brakes.  I careered all the way through to the back of Ridley Scott station (I imagine the look of utter disbelief on Air Traffic Control)).  I managed to lose only one ring of shield as I smacked into the far side of the station.  I did a 180 and thought, what the hell, boost out as well to compound the stupidity.  Due to my 180 being at speed I was too high for the slot and while boosting in the opposite direction managed to smack the lip of the station on exit.  Zero shields and some hull damage.  I was laughing hysterically at this point.  To hell with the 400cr fine, this was just too funny.  Glad I wasn't in my conda.

Starting Saturday with a couple of songs to wake me up and then slowing it down and ending with a couple of instrumentals and then ending on a classic instrumental.  Haven't heard many of these in years. That Mode to Joy remix of World in my Eyes is one of my fave Mode remixes ever.  Ridiculous synths in that one...  Love the bass line.... #depechemode  Alan Wilder
