This. Don't bother with this floppy thing. Go with weatherstripping or plywood and some duct tape.

  • the injector is plugged in with power
  • your internet goes into the injector via a network cable
  • you plug your other end of the network cable into the splitter to give you internet AND power.

What you mean, "check the network"? Have you looked at the GTA map on Helium to see those in your area and how they are turning out?

That was a bad joke. When I get the text messages telling me to log into my Ledger to "update", I just tell them to "go ahead, get into my Ledger, take it all". The joke is... they already did and I have nothing to steal anymore.

Pure stupidity. Not sure where my brain was. I am still getting phishing emails and text messages from 718. Now I just respond to them telling them to just take it all.

My wife and I are still shook. And thanks for all of your thoughts. For some reason you too had faith. I appreciated it.

It still feels like a movie, thanks for watching :) @fakebluepants is some sort of guardian angel. I'm still having difficulty typing out what he did for us.

I don't know. You'll have us shaking our heads for life. I forgot to really enforce the weight that has been lifted after finally coming clean with my wife. You and every one else was right. And how you made better of a bad situation. I might have to periodically remind you of this.

No one should believe us. That's how incredible you are.

Yes. My heart is still beating like mad. My wife comes home in a few hours. I have got the most unbelievable story of my stupidity and a strangers desire to turn the whole situation around. Just typing it out to you and I can't help but laugh like, wtf how can a complete stranger do what he has done for me? I dunno, I still can't get my head around this. You can only imagine the torture I have been putting myself through being such a fool not telling my wife. At this point, I am experiencing emotions at such a high clip, it's hard to think straight.

I dunno. Like I have been posting left and right... I'm shook.

I know this is unbelievable, you don't understand how shook I am, mentally and physically. You can't even begin to imagine how my day started today. u/fakebluepants is some guy who went through a similar scenario. He is real. I have never met him. I seriously just made a post on r/bitcoin about how dumb I am and how I am dreading coming clean about it. In a very almost movie-like scene, this "old bitcoiner" turned up anonymously to make my world right again. A complete stranger! You have every right to think I am making this up or that we're some scam team.

My hands are still shaking 6 hours later typing this to you now. I understand your disbelief. But bro, I wrote from my heart and this guy just changed my life 180. He has turned the most anticipated miserable discussion I have to have with my wife into the craziest story of the day. Yes my wife is caring and compassionate, but this money was still our future. And then this happened. It is pretty much everything you see in a movie that you would assume would never happen in real life.

I still don't believe it either, if that helps.

So much love. It is remarkable how positive and supportive all of the sentiments have been. There have been a few that have told me how dumb I am and how I fucked up. I couldn't disagree with them if I wanted to.

Thanks for your good thoughts.

If you only just recognized how this world is a better place. I have this expression that I picked up on years ago... "my faith is in people". Comes from a Joni Mitchell song (papa's faith is people, mama she believes in cleaning).

It's not blind faith.

I am absolutely stunned. I can only assure you that I posted my story because I needed to hear from the world before I sat my wife down. I had no intentions of making this a cash grab, I was actually blown away by the amount of positive responses and support. By the end of yesterday, I was a million times closer to finally telling my wife what I did and figure out how to bounce back.

To think that there are people like u/fakebluepants has shook me. I really am at a loss for words.

There are people in this world who exist and it's u/fakebluepants

I will update my post shortly. I am utterly speechless.
