• Another AT&T Business twist of the knife as they charged us an early termination fee for our current contract. I had assumed after our 12-month contract expired a couple of years ago we went month to month that's how they could keep raising prices every few months.

• I've been reading Supergirl (1996 and 2005) comics and especially with 2005 the storylines have been a bit confusing. Finally realized it's because of crossovers, where a story goes from one comic book title, continues to another title, then back to the first title. In the old days (like the 1980's) it used to be that the first page recapped the story so far even if it was the same title. But now they don't so it takes a while to figure out what you missed. Also don't help that the trade paperbacks sometimes don't make it clear when one issue ends and the next issue starts which makes it more jarring.

• I finally setup the QNAP NAS that my brother gave me (it's a hand-me-down). Unlike the Drobo the QNAP RAID uses the smallest disk size so mixing drives sizes wastes space (I think that's standard RAID behavior, Drobo had Beyond RAID technology to use all the drive space). Researching a bit and QTS Hero OS also uses the smallest drive size.

• Copying files to the QNAP NAS. It's nice having a WiFi network that is as fast as my External USB HD connection. About 36 MB per second which is the same as when I was doing External USB to External USB copy.

• Humble Bundle's BattleTech RPG Book Bundle. It doesn't mention anywhere that this is an exact repeat of an April 2025 bundle which I might have missed but noticed the URL has +'-encore" at the end. Reading what I wrote before it's still a valid reason not to buy this bundle.

• Nemo asked me to relay a message to one of her stalkers asking him to stay away from her. Initially he replied apologizing saying he would. Then a few days later asking if he can meet her one more time. Then a few weeks later a couple of long rambling messages where I can see he's slowly convincing himself that she didn't mean it and she really likes him. Meanwhile I have not replied and only sent that one original message. I'm not sure what to do because when I talk I'm not really that decisive so I'm afraid anything I said would leave small rooms for him to keep encouraging himself.

Sleep 0245 to 0945, 30 nap. (7-1/2 hours)

• Next Door has a few mailing lists and I didn't see any settings to unsubscribe, so when I get an email I click the unsubscribe link. So far four different categories I've unsubscribed in 24 hours. I'd guess there may be a weekly or monthly email I will receive and unsubscribe.
