I too have a Epson V600 Photo scanner that was generously given to me by a friend a few years ago. I have a few hundred kodachrome slides and some photos I would like to copy. But alas . . . I am old now (almost 90) with a faded memory and now lacking skills to do this. It is too bad that there is no simple to follow manual available to purchase that would help me out. The will is still there . . . but the skill and ability is not.

Jerry I have the same problem that you have. However I have concluded that the 1, 2 and 3 hour "naps" I have throughout the 24 hour period seems to be enough to give me the "rest of the day" energy and ability to not feel "sleepy". So I have concluded that for being "almost 90" I am doing well . . . and do not worry about the "broken sleep" thing>

May I suggest you consider doing volunteer work. There are all kinds of things that you could do that are very interesting. Get outside . . . look around at the many groups that are looking for volunteers. You will meet many people that could be your friend. Good luck.

A few people have never learned "when to keep their mouth shut".

I'm sure there are capable Bluetooth printers but I have my Brother B&W laser printer plugged directly into my wifi router so that any device logged into my wifi can print to it.
I also have 2 brother laser printers. One with wireless (bluetooth) and the other not. "With" a router that will "handle" routing of printing to a non-wireless as mine does . . . why does it matter?

I have 2 Brother laser printers. One is 4 years old and is print only (low end). The 2nd printer is a print and copy only (also low end). Both these printers are wireless. I have 24 years of owning various makes and price range of printers and these 2 printers are the most trouble free by far. For my needs I will probably never go back to ink printers. Incidentally I use a generic toner that costs me about $30 that I buy from my local printer repair/sales store. They get the ink from a large LA. and have never had any toner problems. I get my toner from a local Palm Springs printer repair/sale store that gets the toner from a large dealer in LA. Good luck in whatever you choose to do.

Dealing with large companies such as this story has become such a nightmare . . . and it seems that nothing can be done about it. Perhaps if all of us customers complained by letter they would sit up and "notice".

A very nice assortment of British cars. I missed seeing the Triumph TR3 and a Morgan.

Well, yes and no. Looking at the statistics from BackBlaze, they are reliable, but SSDs seem to have the overall edge. SSDs do wear out after a certain number of writes, though. An HDD will keep working unless something breaks. As I said above, I am using some that are ten years old.
What should one look for to know if you have a failed backup drive?

Maybe if we had more women running things there might be more peace.
