What Are You Doing Right Now
-
Someone gave me some fresh fruits!
Pineapple
and Papaya -
We have a pineapple delivery coming today!
-
In a thread about getting more women interested in IT, and a bit after I flagged it for moderation, I cannot believe that this Pimiento with only one post gets to keep this one on a thread. Still there, hour or two later, as I post this!

At least the over-moderation issues have been seriously curtailed, I've not seen a bad mod in months now. Very happy about that, even with me posting more heavily than ever. But this one really needs someone to step in and delete that post (and maybe that account.)

Indeed!

I think I can see why it hasn't been deleted/moderately moderated.
However I still think that it is definitely not contributing to the topic. It seems more like flame-bait.I flagged a similar comment from someone else last week and that got toasted.

Just lost power. Who knows how long we will be offline. Phones nearly dead too

If it had mentioned something political, especially about anyone named "Bush", it would get removed immediately... just like mine do. Seriously, one of the mods has a total hard-on to delete anti-right wing comments, happens every time.

Aww

That was fast, power is back on.

@scottalanmiller Better put your phone on a surge protector or slaptop and charge it, lol.

We need to invest in a bunch of batteries. Not sure where you can buy those around here, though.

It got nuked now, just took a few hours.

So much use of apostrophes to pluralize... I want to punch the OP. I'm resisting tearing him a new one on the thread.

Any chance to add a mini solar charger to the gear list? they aren't the fastest to charge,.. but they will function as a stop-gap measure:
-
Great idea, I'm going to look into that. Something large enough to charge a laptop, maybe! That would be good to use full time, actually. Electricity down here is super expensive and anything to offset it would be good.
-
If we end up buying down here, which we are seriously considering, we will be investing heavily in solar.

So I take it that the link you posted earlier that mentioned that gun crime is rampant there doesn't concern you?

You will need more to power the laptop. 15w solar panels are great for mobile devices, but laptops need more than that. And solar is only good when the sun is strong enough.
If you decide to make this area more 'permanent' you should look at the option of both Solar and Wind.
