Spectrum Internet only for $55/month

After quitting Spectrum TV, I told them that I'd switch to Fidium if they didn't lower my internet costs. They gave me a $55/month promo price for 300/10, which they will likely renew after the...

Worth the visit

I've been there twice and will go back again. It is good place to relax for an hour, with comfortable tables and couches. Many teas, and you can blend your own drink. Interesting soups and crepes.

Ice In?

Moultonboro Bay seems pretty well iced in. Much of it happened Sunday night and Monday, but the new snow on top reveals very few wet spots. Several folks were skating on the ice yesterday, before...

Loons and Ice-in

Late or no ice-in is becoming a thing for the loons. Last year, perhaps for the first time, some of Winni's loons spent the winter here, rather than migrating to the ocean. This change in behavior...

If we’re going to mess with time, let’s go all-in on DST year-round. I’m fine with the sun dragging its feet until 7:30 AM around the Winter Solstice if it means we get those beautiful 9 PM summer...

Back up at 4:30 (10/15)

Fidium came back up around 4:30PM. It took two reboots of the modem and my router too before bits started flowing again but it has been stable since. That's over 16 hours of downtime. That gives...

Fidium outage details

Service went out about 00:10AM. Still out at 13:00. Given the size of outage and cell service down here and there, likely a fiber trunk outage. This is the first bad mark on Fidium and the length...
