Seriously trivial thoughts
A link to a very thoughtful post on life lessons and a must-read for everyone, particularly my older friends. As I get closer to retirement, I see myself beginning to truly learn these very lessons and the post has moved the needle a little more. I suppose it’s confirmation of some sort. Now, while I …
UPDATE 2019-08-15: See if this solution helps. I have determined that my Asus RT-AC88U router is just not compatible with my Canon Pixma MG5320 over WiFi.

NOTE: I’m pretty sure that most water softeners work very similarly, …
