It's not as if a cumulative six hours of blackout wasn't bad enough. Tried to go to a webpage on my tablet, wp said 'your browser is out of date please update' so I updated Chrome and thereafter got the message 'Chrome keeps stopping.' Yes I know it does. So I followed instructions to disable Chrome, so I could go back to the earlier version, and that made half the apps on the tablet disappear, including the ones that I thought were Samsung apps, including the Memo one where I record my passwords in a form I can see. Always record your passwords in deadwood because devices are the devil's children.

DLed Firefox onto the thing and spent the afternoon getting a few of my bookmarks and changing passwords in Firefox. But I don't like Firefox. The solution to 'Chrome keeps stopping' is to delete caches and data in Google but Chrome keeps stopping Google before I can do it. Also Libby, the e-reader for the library. And I have a book that I must somehow return via either my ancient phone or even more ancient desktop.

Have rage-bought a new Samsung tablet which should be here by the weekend and I hope it will sync with all my cloud information to, well, get my information onto itself.

Yes, first world problems. But first world problems require gin.

Argh. Lots of sympathy, and I hope the new tablet is better behaved. That definitely requires gin.
