    She wants to enter her Covid LFT result but her tablet is not playing ball, so she has been screaming at it for not turning on. Finally, I go to investigate the problem, and ... the battery is at "0%" ... :sigh: At least it's easy to fix! :laugh:

        FTFY ;) :rolleyes:

        M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

          Mine too. Only she would go back to quill pens and calligraphy if it were possible.

              Oh, just wait until she has to use 2FA to sign into her tablet, then puzzle site, etc. Herself: I need my phone to do my puzzles on my tablet!?! (launches nuclear missiles) 🚀🚀🚀🚀 :laugh: 2FA drives me nuts. Here's my contribution to the 2FA discussion[^]. It's star wars based so it should go over really well here. :rolleyes:

                If I only could ... My wife (then) was the editor of a small magazine published by our local historical society, I was the computer typesetting consultant. This guy that regularly made headlines for some articles, as well as the the front page, did use a real quill pen for his calligraphy. He was so unsatisfied with the ink he could buy here in Norway that he traveled to the Netherlands for the sole purpose of buying the right ingredients to mix his own ink of proper quality. Note that he did not buy Dutch ink, just the ingredients so that he could control all aspects of the ink composition! But gee, if I could have had a handwriting like his! Every word he wrote was a graphical piece of art. Looking at my own handwriting, I feel ashamed. I have always been ashamed of it. So from day one of my playing around with computers, I let them handle all of my writing. My upbringing had taught me that personal letters always should be hand written, never typed. I have consistently been misbehaving for more than forty six years now. Not a single letter has been in my handwriting since 1975. I do believe that the readers of my letters are happy with it. Still, I wish that I really knew how to do calligraphy with a real quill pen.
