I use the Windows Defender that came with Win10, but I also use Malwarebytes.
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

What would cause my ip address to think I'm in Canada?
IP geolocation is a bit inexact. There could incorrect data in the database.
traceroute might tell you some interesting stuff.
Who does the internet think manages your IP address?

Interesting thing tonight. I checked a couple different places. I got:
- Freemont, CA (wrong)
- Pomona, CA (closer, but wrong)
- Los Angeles (well, county, yes, city, no)
- Long Beach, CA (practically right, my lil city is a pimple in the middle of Long Beach)
- Unavailable
- and the ahem site still says Canada
- Speedtest by Ookla correctly identifies Frontier Communications, but says location is Los Angeles.
Trace route said Frontier in Pomona.

I haven't heard much about Apple's recent event, yesterday. That doesn't seem like a good sign that they did anything very interesting.

Spoken just like someone who still uses function keys, and has more than one kind of port on his computer.
I also bet you still use a land-line telephone, watch VHS tapes, and mount Clovis points on your spears, rather than the obviously superior Folsom point.

Yeah, my personal laptop is so ancient that it has an optical drive.

Clovis points, I assume, have something to do with bunnies.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
They're the fangs.

Of course!
