Starbucks? I was under the impression they were t-mobile hotspots you had to pay to use?

If anyone is in the Gainesville, FL area, Oxford Cafe on 16th Ave (off University) has free WiFi... I also recommend the CooNooMooNoo shake... oh yeah.

Nice to hear, hopefully Ill be accepted to UF next year. Are there any other hotspots on the campus? And off?

Theres a Cafe Near me on the other side of Lake Tarpon that offers free wifi. But other other than that, its all either t-mobile or other pay service.

Yeah, this is true at a lot of coffeehouses now, about 3 in my town, Bloomington-Normal, IL, have WiFi. Actually, lol, the funny thing is, I live about 150 feet from one, and I can actually access the WiFi network from my apartment, although the speed is ridiculously slow considering I'm at about the limit of the range.

Most of campus has wireless... except the dorms, but that could be fixed with an antenna of some sort I suppose since it surrounds the buildings... really, the only thing you'd need wireless for in dorms is unrestricted downloading... the dorm network is faster but you can only use IRC effectively without being shutdown instantly (that I've figured out anyway, without a VPN). Search for ICARUS on google if you are interested. You should check out the following sites though

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
