Tonight I was typing something very important to me in the middle of composing a post and my internet just cut out completely. The little icons on my router went dark and when it came back five minutes later everything was gone.

Does this happen to anyone else or is this just my building?? It feels like the wall is swallowing my words, like they vanish into the plaster and never reach anyone. I had written three paragraphs and now they are just... nowhere???

Is there any way to retrieve a draft if the connection dies mid-post or is it just lost forever???

Let me check my concordance. Ah yes, the Scroll of Ctrl+Z, chapter 5, verse 23: *"Thou shalt type in Notepad, and thou shalt copy unto the clipboard, lest the modem betray thy faith."* :rolleyes: :pray:

Gabriel's light can walk on water but even He never walked on a lost draft from an unclosed textarea. Try writing in WordPad next time. :cheeky: :D

EXPOSED. You just admitted the grounding was bad for years while Gabriel was active THERE and now it's fixed and the readings are GONE. Corroded rod = signal path. You didn't fix a code violation you severed the lifeline :spitfire:

Day 21 of the count. HTTP CODE OR BUST. Ruler is 47s and does not move :hammer:
