I think you have that right. I try to download files from GB prior to 1800 PDT as after that time the rate drops like a rock. What takes 5 minutes at 1600 takes 30-60 minutes at 2000. These are not netflix files but it would seem that in the evening netflixs flood the system.
I have been doing it for years and it is not that big a deal once it is configured. If you want to get fancy then it can be a problem. We run courier (I wanted sendmail but lost ) using imap to our local net. it runs on a local virtual machine and is pretty much maintenance free. It can not be accessed from outside (the "fancy" part) and it has no spam filtering. The jewel in this is the alias file. Untrustworthy sites (most) get a specific alias. If I get spam with that I delete the alias.
You mean like Beaverton? (Intel) Lots of towns in Oregon like that (a dying breed). Most were dependent on a sawmill (sometimes a very large sawmill). Timber goes, town goes. Sometimes there is a small town left, and sometimes they remove everything (Valsetz for instance). Some were even company towns (the lumber company owned everything) Gilchrist OR. for instance. Even Bend was a mill town, but it had a little more going for it (skiing, county seat) and didn't die out.
AH Bend. What a mess they made out of that town. Good skiing , but population growth got a bit ahead of the city and county. The town of 10,000 that was so neat is long gone. Californication at it's best.
No hydro locally. There is a hydro project down stream where the Crooked, Deschutes and Metolious river join. Water around Prineville is for irrigation. Even the small dam upstream might have problems. It was built using a method that is now considered suspect. Electric power in the region come from the Columbia via BPA (Bonneville Power Administration).
I have never seen a volcano smoke. Ash, rocks, mud, steam, noxious gases yes, but no smoke. You want smoke you gotta burn something. (maybe the volcano came up thru a coal bed???) (no coal that I know of in Iceland).
NB: Maybe trolls are surreptitiously feeding it peat.

The can go up wind. They can also sail faster than the wind (very much faster).

Sounds like somebody found a copy. There is so much stuff alluded to in Alice that the annotations seem to go on for ever. It is an interesting read, but slow.

I notice that no one has mentioned these, why not?
There maybe not be any documents on his server if someone so decides.

People don't stay. Those that can often leave. It may not be as pretty but you can find a job in Portland a
lot easier.

Lumber industry is not too good right now.
good luck at finding most of those in Prineville.

It's still and interesting article.
Look at the bright side, you not only get to give away your personal info/location
you get to pay to have this done.
Cell phones are such a wonderful invention.
I find it very hard to generate much sympathy for MSFT.
Gee, someone played a dirty trick on them.
While it wasn't nice of Google , I hope they don't stop.
