BTW, you can go into 'Legacy GV' interface and into Groups to whitelist contact groups (e.g. 'All Contacts') who will get straight to you without this screening.

Google Voice (GV) and Voip.ms have fairly sophisticated screening that tends to get the 'vehicle warranty' bots to hang up quickly. I wish our phone carriers offered such methods to ensure that their 'services' remain re

It might be worth considering a MVNO such as Mint or USMobile - you can end up with monthly bills of around 30usd or less with unlimited call/text and considerable data allowance.

I don't think they will ever be able to walk this back. The governments that twisted Apple's arm to get this look-see into everyone's devices will roast them in the court of public opinion (or threaten to, which will be enoug

I've gotten a few pairs from Adidas (adidas.com or their eBay store) and they have been great for my light needs. One can find Alphabounce-soled sneakers and etc. for around that price, including shipping.

Agree. While Walmart's search can be a little silly still and selecting the retailer as Walmart.com every time gets old (esp. since it moves around), the search is light years better than the trashfire that Amazon.com serves me. Also,

For coffee, I've seen people recommend putting in a dash of baking soda in the drink to reduce the acidity though I haven't tried this. I also tried some of the low-acid coffees and they were fine though the flavor is in no way co

Blackstar Co-Op in Austin ( https://blackstar.coop/ ) is a great example imo. The service is great and the missing begging bowl is a great relief. Hopefully there are more examples.

Thank you - I used the calculator more in the last hour after making this change than I had in the past month. I'm ashamed I didn't figure this out - I should have done a better job of RTM.

FYI, Google Maps has recently started to 'disappear' negative reviews. They show up when the reviewer is logged in but checking the business incognito will show fewer reviews.

Remember that Walmart and Best Buy also sell a lot of 3rd-party stuff now. I find it strange that on their site I always have to filter by Retailer=Walmart.com to get their listings and even then, it sometimes filters out some of their own

The rM1 I think has the capability to solder in a socket but it is not clear to me that the rM2 is similarly modifiable. The low storage and the lack of support for external storage via the usb-c port really make things unnecessarily compli
