All the tokenring in use at the bank I worked at in the mid-90s was twisted pair.

I faintly recall that some of the older systems used the 9pin connectors.

And the first home ethernet I set up was BNC.

I use ctrl-c and ctrl-v for those. Right hand presses right control with palm of hand (just below pinky). Left hand types the letter like normal.

I just kind of roll my hand to the ctrl key, I don't use a finger to press it.

Same thing with right-ctrl.

I think that's just sun+charging, not wireless charging specific.

You're starting with the plate, getting the home, and then you can get the real estate info.

Most people don't expect their identity to be discoverable from their driving.
