I'm going to check that out. I have had a Max Lumi for years and have been happy with it, but I never do browsing. Any other apps I you recommend?

They absolutely are. I have multiple friends who received cash offers from investment companies when selling their homes. It's fairly common and well known. "We buy houses" companies are everywhere. It's their entire str

Snake, Google, X, Spike, Twitter. Some of these sound like things cool to 5 year olds. I wouldn't expect a 5 year old to know what a googol is.

Slap some face and voice filters onto the call that trigger anytime someone is yelling. Make them smile and change their vocal intonations to be pleasant, then the recorded minutes wont be a big deal if they're leaked.

I always wonder if it's some odd thing going on in the DAW. Would you be willing to export that track as two tracks--one with drums and one with synth? Then listen to them solo, then run them together (with WAV files instead of instrum

My understanding of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu really shot up once I started teaching. Teaching forces you to put things into words that you only had an implicit understanding of prior. It reinforces your existing knowledge and forces you to seek

This isn't a both sides situation. There was no science indicating that the virus was leaked from a lab. One side said "the virus was leaked from a lab! we should call it Kung Flu or The China Virus!" and the other side sai
