Hi everyone! Welcome to the 136th edition of the Weekend Roundup. Hope you’re all doing fine and for those of you who are in the US, hope you had fun celebrating Independence Day (July 4th) with family and friends. My apologies for another late publication of this weekly feature. Although this time, it wasn’t my fault and I have a valid reason – my Internet connection (including landline and cable TV) was down. With the help of a Verizon tech support person, all three services were restored by doing a manual reset/reboot of the ONT or Optical Network Terminal. Anyways, although this already late I still hope that you guys would enjoy reading the articles and links I’ve gathered from around the Internet.
