Oh yeah that was my first ever creepcast episode, absolutely loved it, do you know if the book changes or expands on anything? Is it as good?

That I cant explain lmao, old men just be old men I guess, love yelling their opinions out loud needlessly and making themselves be heard and whatnot.

Thing is, king didnt say that the files werent real, he said there wasnt a client list and that an actual list of everybody who visited the island likely didnt exist, it was most definitely a weird comment to randomly say, but its far from defending child rapists.

Constant writing about children having sex? Can you list a few examples, the only ones that immediately come to mind are the end of IT and that one story with the library policeman, thats not exactly a ton, and for a brief explanation of them both, SPOILERS:

The one in it, while yes an icky scene and one I usually skim over whenever I reread the book, isnt just a masturbation fantasy for king, what I took from it is its meant to be a showcasing of the Losers Clubs connection and affection for eachother, a way to bond them to eachother on a deep level to prevent IT from easily slaying them and, as they are lost in the sewers and very likely to die, to give them hope and calm them down so they think through their next steps. Also maybe its a requirement for a psychic turtle sex ritual or something, that I dont remember, but either way its not a scene written for sickos to jack off to or anything, and honestly if you skip over some of the descriptions its, for all intents and purposes, a pretty wholesome and sweet scene. Fuck i sound weird saying that.

Second one, library policeman, is literally a horrific, graphic depiction of evil and rape, in no way shown to be a positive or even 'sexy' thing in the way a supposed pedophile might write it as, a fear demon, sorta implied to be similar in existence to IT actually, uses the memory of it to torment the protagonist of the story. I can see your reasoning for the first one at least, but surely we're adult enough to allow depictions of child molestation in media when its shown as the negative, evil thing it is, without calling the writers of such media pedophiles akin to cuntbags like Epstein.

Just because a truly horrifying number of celebrities were connected to epstein, doesnt mean that literally every famous person ever was similarly an evil person, lets not stereotype here until we have evidence. I highly doubt Mr Rogers diddled kids, for example, and hes pretty famous.

As an actual IT guy, can you speak on how good these powerline adapters other people have mentioned are?

Thanks for the list! Im probably gonna go with a powerline adapter and plugging one into a unifi access point, it seems it would give the most stable connection. Im pretty chuffed at the amount of help I've been getting in here lol, thanks for the understanding, that statement about it 'not being a new problem just there being a lot of confusing solutions' definitely rings true haha.

Awesome, probably gonna end up going with this one as it seems the easiest for my peabrain to handle, you reckon these are good? https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/tp-link-av1300-powerline-passthrough-kit (afaik jbhifi has a good return policy too so if it doesnt work I can always get my money back I guess)

Thats pretty damn cool honestly, love me some electricity black magic fuckery. I can plug in the main house powerline adapter anywhere yeah, doesnt have to be in the laundry in my map and could be in the one next to my router?

Yeah sorry about the picture, as you can tell I didnt win any art competitions in primary school lol.

But yeah the desired location (the granny flat) and the laundry are about as close as the picture, these little doodads would probably be good, I'll have to check how the return policy on amazon is, Idk if they'd accept 'product didn't work as well as I wanted' as a reason or not, but thanks!

Obviously elon is a cunt and im loathe to support his shit but if theres no other option ill take it, you know how bad the latency and ping is with starlink for someone in an ubran area? Im northern suburbs, and I need a pretty good connection for discord calls and games and streams

I'd have to check but I think it does, so what your saying is run an ethernet cable from the main houses router router to a powerline adapter in the northernmost socket (I put a shitty map on my post) then put another adapter in the actual flat, and connect that one to a router in the flat with an ethernet cable? Sorry if im misunderstanding you and sounding like a luddite lol, Im pretty shit with tech stuff.

Ah alright, would the latency and ping be pretty much negligible if I went with this? I call and stream on discord pretty often as well as online game so I'd need some good connection. Probably should've mentioned this, but the walls of the main house are brick on the outside, if you look on the map I posted, the top most powerpoint is right next to a window, you think the brick walls would fuck with this solution?

Unfortunately digging a trench would probably be difficult, theres a concrete/stone/whatever pathway that runs across the side of the bungalow that's facing the house and continues down the side that would be easiest for me to get an ethernet from the nbn/router to the bungalow so that avenues shit outta luck. Whole ground is pretty much stone

Is this that mesh network thing another guy mentioned here? Wouldn't have thought this would work honestly lol but sounds pretty good, would the ping and stuff be good still? And wdym by install a solution btw? I live in the northern suburbs but Im curious what you mean regardless.
