      Drop-In Time running full steam. Pre-game at Marian's. She's recovering from surgery. I go over for dinner & to try to fix her tv. Remote is busted. New batteries? Maybe... no. "What was the last thing you did before it broke?" No idea. Last week is here: https://twitter.com/jessamyn/status/1187164887706931200 …pic.twitter.com/2cVndnN4gP

      No cell service at her house. Try to get wifi password from her Keychain. What's the login password? No, not the PIN. No, not the Apple ID. We Facetime her son in New Zealand to get it. Never did get remote working. Will try again Sat. New drop-inner Maria "Do I need a new ipad?"pic.twitter.com/ozBXwoIUlL

      Her ipad is old and oddly slow (freezes, etc). Try some things & it's clear she'd just like (and can afford) a new one. I show @MacRumors buying guide to comparison shop, talk about @swappa and @gazelle to get rid of old hardware. Tell her how to back up & transfer data.

      Carroll is back with the same problem; writing his memoirs in LibreOffice & random vertical lines appear. Undeleteable. I do some formatting magic & it's fixed, for now. He suggests I look in on a former landlady (his former neighbor/nemesis), not doing so well & I say I will.pic.twitter.com/NOjxzUhqd6

      Josie's back from Europe (I got many emails, many pix, lots of CC'ed replies from all her friends) and can't get all her photos off of her (old) phone to her (old) laptop. We wrassle with it a while & then she mentions the tech ppl did "A repair" and now some things are missing.pic.twitter.com/hyUakYZ9fL

      Confusing thing about this is 1. Josie's an unreliable narrator, tho lovely ("What kind of repair?" "Oh just fixing things") 2. The missing photos happened within the same day as Mary's "missing photos" from two weeks ago. Josie had LibreOffice on her laptop before, doesn't now.pic.twitter.com/Jbtng7ddrI

      Bonus: I dress as Kanga from The Blustery Day and find I am the only one in the whole bar who dressed up. This would have been a nightmare for kid-me but I roll with it. Kangaroo suit is warm and comfortable.pic.twitter.com/aPD82mnoCY
