I did NOT search Computer PSUs, I searched for 5v output PSUs and they chose to show me computer PSUs as part of it. And because they keep sending the alerts to my phone, when I select them it shows me another moodily lit PC PSU, and it reinforces their algorithms' belief that I'm interested! Aargh!!

Specifically, that I'd finely honed another literary masterpiece (oh, alright, written a blog) and when I hit submit ... I'm offline. "But backups?" Yeah, only work when you are online so on the tablet, I have a third of a blog. Also miffed at self for not copying blog first - I know this happens. Meh.
