  1. I understand the 30 day reversal doesn't work too well but it is suppose to keep your data, yes with recovery you would lose and apps and data you did not save to some external device. On a refurb it could be the refurbisher installed 10 on the C: drive and the the Recovery partition could still be the original factory restore version of Windows.
  2. Depends on what you define as distress, needing a tow without taking on water putting lives in danger is not distress in my books, just like you don't call 911 if you have a flat tire or run out of gas. Pick up your cell , call the marina and pay for a bloody tow.
  3. Not that I want to , but it has been quite a while since I've got a computer with disks for Windows but most come with a partition on the hard drive called " D: Recovery " or something to that effect. Would it not be possible to use that to take a PC back to factory state and the originally installed version of Windows if some one had a problem with 10? So most people have an out if they really wanted to .
  4. Check the radar, not looking good, you made the right decision
  5. It screws up the fishing even after the waves subside, cause it pushes all the warm water to this end of the lake, fishing is none too good when you are getting 60F temps at 80 feet down.
  6. Go to Erie, Port Colborne area and fish pickeral or bass, that was my option when the wind was out of the east.
  7. I know you know your birds, not getting what you mean. It is a heron and my observations from 2 years as Park Naturalist at Long Point Provincial Park that herons and Bitterns are quite vocal and forage at night as well .
  8. Not so strange as some of the herons are somewhat nocturnal. Quite common to hear the Bittern calling at night and foraging, believe the Back Crowned Night Heron is also nocturnal judging from its name. Did the location border on some marsh or swampy area?
  9. Think today is the last day to upgrade free to Windows 10.
  10. Several creeks for trout in the area, Young's Creek and the Lynne River . Bit of drive, but Deer Creek Reservoir, the site of the "Fish-a-thon for a Cure" is a good multispecies spot.
  11. The view of the Toronto skyline changes quite a bit from standing at the waters edge here in Grimsby to the lookout on top of the escarpment, probably a distance of 40 miles.
  12. Thanks, that works, any of the file sharing we do is limited to the the his and hers desktops that are hard wired to the router.
  13. Thankyou, one question though , does this cover all computers and devices behind your router on your network or would you have to purchase it separately for each device ?
  14. oskee wee wee , eat them raw, great come back

  15. Instead of one of the android boxes, just install Kodi on your PC, laptop , tablet or I even have it on my phone, then you can use a hdmi cable to your TV or if you have a smart TV or a miracast capable device attached to the TV , then wirelessly cast or project it to the TV for better viewing. Anyone have a good cheap VPN they want to recommend?
  16. Think what we need is a VPN, I posted a similar question in the Computer section, I will follow this thread too.
  17. I think the stuff at Len's is for upholstery , seats and cushions, not flooring.
  18. We really enjoyed this British show and it's sequel " Ashes to Ashes " , music was great too, it is available on Kodi, don't know about netflix. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_on_Mars_(UK_TV_series)
  19. My AT and XT machines ran only DOS, I held off getting Windows till I got my first Pentium 90 with a 1 gig hard drive and Window 95, all the nerds would have nothing to do with Windows for a long time, seems to be the same situation today with 10. Monochrome monitors with a C prompt rule
  20. If she gets in at least she will be accessible to the average American..... [email protected]
  21. Now if they can only do something about the Android Device/ Google marriage , I swear my phone knows the brand of TP I use and which hand , on the bright side there is no longer a stack of magazines next to the crapper.
  22. The thinner the better, you want capillary action to draw the glue deep into the cracks without clogging the threads.
  23. Guess it all depends where you draw the center line, Harper was adequate but as a Conservative I don't think he was the greatest, either. Actually , my hope was that when Mike Harris stepped down and Eves finished the term , I was hoping he, ( Harris ) would have taken a run at the federal leadership.
  24. Think you are safe Cliff, the free upgrade did not extend to Vista users, only Windows 7 and 8. Seriously though, we have 2 new PC's a tablet and laptop running 10 with no problems and an old 7 laptop, plus another laptop and a desktop that we did the free upgrade on with no problems.
  25. how would you tell ?
