Caught my neighbor using my WiFi to stream Netflix in 4K

I was sitting on my porch in Cleveland last Tuesday watching my data cap disappear, checked my router log and saw 12 devices connected. Turns out my neighbor's kid was using my unprotected network to watch Stranger Things in 4K. I changed the password, added MAC filtering, and now I'm wondering if I should confront them or just let it slide. Has anyone else caught someone stealing their WiFi?

Unpopular opinion: my old Motorola flip phone was more reliable than any smartphone I've owned

My dad told me in 2014 that I'd regret getting rid of my Razr for an Android. Two years later I dropped that smartphone in a puddle and it died, while his Razr still turned on after sitting in a drawer for seven years. Anyone else still keep a dumb phone around just in case your main one fails?

Wiring harness failure on a King Air 90 at KAPA last week totally changed how I check chafing points

Swapped from a cutterhead to a plain suction dredge on a small river job near Harrisburg last spring

The cutterhead kept getting tangled in roots and debris, but the plain suction handled it all without a single jam and we finished the 200 foot stretch in 3 days instead of 5, has anyone else made a switch like that on a silty site?

A librarian in Portland gave me the best writing advice I ever got

I was at the Multnomah County library last spring, just staring at a blank page in the fiction section. An older librarian walked by, saw my screen, and said 'stop trying to write the whole book today, just write one ugly sentence.' She told me she's seen a hundred people quit because they wanted perfection on draft one. It sounds so simple but it actually got me to finish a short story for the first time in like 2 years. Has anyone else had a random stranger say something that broke through a block?
