The Migration to Windows 10

Have you made the journey?

Well, I went through the upgrade process a few days ago, and to give Microsoft credit where it's due, the entire process went without any problems what so ever.

Windows 10 looks to be a decent choice for the last big upgrade to what Microsoft says will be its final major release.

I would however advise a serious moment of pause before jumping on the upgrade wagon... 

The PC I did the upgrade on I use for a telephone filtering (getting rid of unwanted out-of-area- calls and the robo-calls that telemarketers use) to quell the constant daily ringing of the cursed thing.  To my dismay the hardware / software involved didn't seem to play well with Windows 10. Unfortunately after several hours of trying to coax things into functioning properly, and the need to have the system function as it should, there was no choice but to roll back to Windows 7 Ultimate. Again where credit is due, the process was rather quick and did not break anything in the process. I was back up and running on Win 7 in only about 20 minutes, with everything working as it was before the whole switch.

Now my dilemma, now that I have upgraded and rolled back again all ready, has Microsoft's offer for the free upgrade been rescinded? or will they give another chance to those few who might run into an issue like mine, to upgrade again after support for the hardware / software has been fixed?

I have a strange gut feeling that any hope for an upgrade now for that machine would have to require a purchase of the Windows 10 system ... in that case I guess I will remain with Windows 7 on that machine for the remainder of its life.

Verizon OMG!

It's Always Your Equipment At Fault

for problems you are having with their service.

When I call to report an issue the go through the regular routine of rebooting the modem, and the router, and the PC... and on ...

we get to the point they ask what router you are using and you tell them, they realized that it is NOT one of the ones they supply and immediately they take the attitude that that is the reason for your problems and they can't assist you any further without access from their end. THAT IS BUNK!

Not that everyone knows their networking equipment as well as I do because I work with it every day and I understand the symptoms of when things are right and when they are not. I just wish they had a way to skip past the basic troubleshooters so the more knowledgeable callers can get to a more knowledgeable tech sooner, it is so aggravating to have to jump the hoops and listen to how it's all because of your equipment even though you are certain that it is not. 

HEY VERIZON! IS THIS ACCEPTABLE SERVICE OVER 25 DAYS!

Total loss of DSL signal 94 times over a 25 day period, yeah, I sent Verizon a hard copy so I didn't have to talk to the nitwits you have to go through to get to someone that can actually trouble-shoot the real issue.

Facebook Loosing Ground

As some people may all ready know ...

... Facebook has dropped API support for third-party instant messengers like 

As I do not like to leave a system demanding web browser open all the time and since there is no other feasible alternative, I will have say farewell to the use of Facebook messenger. Alas it was the one true feature of Facebook that I actually made use of on a routine basis. I rarely actually log onto my Facebook page so communicating that way for me is not an option. Perhaps in the future someone will understand the mistake of dropping this messenger support and I will reconnect again, but until then those who have need to contact me please make use of my e-mail, AIM (akell1166), Google-Talk (setupartist66), Yahoo IM (andyk1166) or leave me a comment here on my blog.

#Groan ...

4 Wheeler running very badly, tear apart carburetor and clean it, place it back on. Start 4 wheeler and it is not running any better. Tear apart carburetor again and let it soak in lacquer thinner over night, upon reassembly 4 wheeler running only marginally better. #scratchhead Drain gas tank and remove from machine and clean it out, replace and refill with fresh gas, remove & drain carburetor and replace. 4 wheeler still not running right, #damn give up for a day and look for prices on new carburetor. #yikes!  

Walk by electrical outlet in barn and see mud dauber packing mud into the ground on the outlet #Idea! Pull Carburetor bowl vent off and try to blow through the tube.#noluck Dig mud out of the end of vent tube … all better. #palm/face
