People who sniff constantly.
I keep wanting to offer them tissues, just so they'll blow their fucking nose and stop cunting sniffing.
See also people who mouth breathe like a fat bird at a burger van.
And pretty much everything else that other people do. I'm a right misanthrope, me.
Alt: something twee and cute that my dog did this morning. One of those 'you had to be there (and be even vaguely interested)' kind of things.
So, anyone know a good USB wifi adapter that works with Windows 7 64bit?

Having a runny nose is really annoying
especially if it just keeps going even when you've blown your nose. If someone has blown their nose and then has to sniff a bit for a while before blowing it again, I think you should let them off.
If there is no attempt at nose blowing, then the offer of a tissue is justified. If someone offered me a tissue when I had a runny nose I'd be quite grateful.

Yeah, I meant just generally.
Sniffing every minute instead of actually blowing your nose. It's just annoying.

I'm pretty sure they all would, what device do you have that has Win 7 but _not_ a wifi?
When it doubt, when it comes to networking, netgear all the way.

HP desktop
with no wifi card. I'm using a Netgear n series at the moment, but it's started dropping out every ten minutes, which is really bastard annoying.

Do you live in a built up area?
I fixed constant drops at around the same rate by changing the channel on the router.

Well, you can't tell that, because there might be new networks in the area you don't know about.

might not be the PC end
when did your router last have a reboot, my old one went cranky and did similar to what you describe, reboot sorted it for a while but eventually needed a new one, the nice bloke at Sky said they only expect them to last 18 months or so.

It's nothing to do with the router.
All teh other computers on the network are fine.

I will certainly bear that in mind.
I'm going to check the drivers first, see if there's a download that can fix it.

If it's a USB one
try it in a different socket, at opposite end of PC if possible.
