I like the KFC Tuesday lunch deal. Drum and thigh plus fries. I get 6 of them and the Mrs. and I each have lunch for the rest of the week.
And if you're like me, you get it without the thigh, and macaroni salad instead of the fries 🙂
I still remember when it was "Toonie Tuesday" for 2$. Now it's 3,89$

I have three teenage kids. Lifespan of that KFC is measured in hours instead of days.

I'm afraid we'll have to part ways again my friend. There is no better meat on a chicken than the thigh.
Unfortunately here in Canada our choices for the sides is very limited so I still take the fries and I don't eat them. The Mrs. does so she gets all 6 portions, minus a couple here and there of course. 😉
Now I know how old you are. If you'd said you remembered Wing Dingers (two full wings and fries) for 99¢ then you'd be closer to my age. 🙂
Well it was fun bringing it home, putting it on the table and getting those admiring looks wasn't it?
Did you get to try it at least? Or do you sneak out to the garage after dinner for the 'Dad' chicken in the trunk?

Nice. I would love to have one of those but please tell us, what animal is now very angry with you?
Happy birthday by the way. 🙂

Another flipping computer to load up as a server since W10 no longer allows peer to peer networking. So now I am forced back to having a full server - requester type network because of Microsoft.
I found out that small computers cost a lot more than normal sized ones. Darn it!!
Server will be Linux. Not a chance in h*ll I'll trust Microsoft to that job!

I got a bunch of LM4562s from T.I. at their old price ($1.15 each). Mouser and DigiKey's prices on these ICs have risen ~ 50% !!!!!
I just got a bunch of chips. Some of the inventories were getting slim. And yes, prices went way up.
My preferred audio resistors, Dale CMF50 series, were running low too. I needed 10K and they were out in 1% tolerance, so I had to get 9.76K. No biggie, but I never thought I'd see the day when you couldn't buy the resistors you want on demand.

I usually buy a 16 piece meal with sides from Church's. Half mild half spicy.
I get to eat it, just not expect there to be any the next day though it can happen.
All spicy here my friend.
Only question left on the plate tonight is how you pronounce your name.
And don't tell me Carter.
Feel free to let me know via PM. 🙂

I'm not sure what you mean by "peer to peer" networking but I can share my entire HDD with R/W access between W10 on my laptop and W11 on my desktop. I booted into W11 just to see if it worked. I don't think I've enabled Samba on my Manjaro install.
Peephole for the shop door. 😡
My shop is basically a large heated garage, with a people door on the side, located in the not-best part of town. The side door is in an inside corner formed by the point where the garage attaches to the main office building - a nice secluded spot. Lighted, but still out of the way; usually has vehicles parked in front of it, obscuring the view from the street.
My desk is right inside the door, and when I'm working late there at night I can occasionally hear some pretty strange noises out there. Now I'll be able to see what's causing them, for better or worse. If it gets interesting enough, maybe I'll upgrade to video and start a YouTube channel like this guy:

Hi kodabmx,
Maybe it recognizes the laptop as a portable, occasionally connected device. But W10 specifically blocked changes to my networking setup to cause normal peer to peer networking to fail. "Its a security concern", but their solution doesn't really make anything more secure.
No, they are forcing a server - client environment. The world according to Microsoft. If it wasn't for a couple programs I absolutely need to run, I would not be using Windows at all. I like Windows less and less with every change to newer operating systems. They are not your friend and are not making decisions to your benefit.

I dunno... As I said P2P works fine over here. I even got Samba going but it uses NetBIOS so it doesn't show up under "network" but you can access it by IP address... I also see no news about this change on the web.

I can ping and execute a web server on equipment no problem, but it changed the network name on each computer to something unique and unchangeable. That kills peer to peer. Everything can surf the web or print, but forget sharing resources.
Classic Microsoft.

Yes, did that. It's the name of the group you can't access.
Thank you for looking. I have been down that road.
Not only did Win10 do that, it changed all my network setting to (extremely evil) DHCP. Everything I have is nailed down and my DHCP range has been kept to 10 addresses. Windows had no business changing any of my *working* network settings. The PC belongs to me, not Microsoft. I wish that idea would filter through to their collective tiny little brains.
