Still suffering the internet fiber cable breakage in NW Alaska. Images take way too long to load to make scrolling any good.. so I'm just not getting the news like I used to. Web pages are sometimes completely broken due to slowness. (Times out). Brings back memories of the days of 2400 baud modems (upgraded from 1200 baud), though back then the internet was mostly text based and loaded reasonably (for that time) well.

@Jdnome
You should know that NPR at least offers a text only site for news. It might help when the internet connection is bad.

NPR : National Public Radio

@MyWoolyMastadon Thanks, I'll check it out. I do listen on the radio pretty much exclusively to NPR.

🥥 I could be wrong, Jim, but I seem to recall when a 1200 baud modem was advertised as "blazingly fast"! 🥥
