  70. I visited the live chat support page at the Straight Talk website to check and see if Straight Talk was cutting off my tablet connection because I was outside my home <abbr title="Zone Improvement Plan">ZIP</abbr> code or if the T-Mobile network is really not available in Coos Bay.
  71. As it turns out, Straight Talk does indeed cut off your connection if you leave your home area.
  72. They also do not offer service in Coos Bay, at least not <abbr title="Global System for Mobile Communications">GSM</abbr> service, through either carrier.
  73. I didn&apos;t ask about <abbr title="code division multiple access">CDMA</abbr> service.
  74. T-Mobile may very well cover this area though.

  77. I put the finishing touches on my Minetyst node protection module today.
  78. Now, the player is teleported back to the place they were when they tried to dig through someone else&apos;s owned nodes, mostly preventing people from digging through protected walls and using lag to get into areas that are blocked off.
  79. This should allow me to avoid having to hide the existence of the tunnel in an effort to keep people out until the first segment is finished.
  80. Even more importantly, once the first segment id complete and the tunnel is open to travelers, I can work on the second segment without fear of detection.
  81. The tunnel will take years to complete, but I still want it to be a solo project, at least for the most part.
  82. If someone has enough curiosity and ingenuity, nothing I do can keep them out, but making it difficult to get past a built barrier should keep the number of unwanted guests down.

  85. My <a href="/a/canary.txt">canary</a> still sings the tune of freedom and transparency.
