I thought I might start a thread about some of the problems of an aged digital nomad in the Covid era. As you know, I think that the Covid epidemic is a ramped up load of bollocks, so we won't discuss that, as many people seem to belive in the governmental support for the Pharma propaganda. My real adjustments stem from the discredited policy of strict lock downs, and the disruption of normal life. Fortunately, the authorities don't seem to know what to do about articulate digital nomads, so as long as you don't prod them with a sharp stick, they tend to leave one alone. I've had a few reversals recently, and the major one was the failure of my notebook computer. It seems to be working correctly, and booting up, but the screen was completely black. I blew out some dust from the interior, and that seems to have revived it. My suspicion is that the screen back-light shut down as a result of overheating, but I will need to try to get some confirmation of this.
Just as an experiment I'm posting this using a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard linked to my new Huawei phone, and that seem to be working well. I'm really pleased with it in fact. The first one I bought failed after a few days, and I sent it back and bought a replacement. The second on included ear buds, and a protective cover, and this wasn't in the first one. This leads me to suspect that the first one was a factory repair, and not a new item hot from the production line. It did have all the factory seals though.
I can't get onto a cafe table with a power supply, so I've stopped trying to sync" my node. I've got some plans to increase the power supply in the van, so I hope I can restart that soon.
