@lbpirat Yeah, I understand that. I just don’t understand how it’s different on my work network from the way it works at home.

Turns out the Lumix FP8 is now so cheap it’s not worth the insurance claim. But FP1/2/3 soon to be released, with sliding lens cover. Yay!

@ArryMatt I know you’re going to be carting suitcases around lots, but artificially boosting your shoulder muscles is going a bit far!

Never mind. At least I got Evernote working again. Now I just have to remember this oddity for the next time it happens.

@bestform It was Firefox that was showing me a blank page! IE just gave an error message. I’m pretty sure it’s proxy weirdness.
