I began using a secondary Gmail account of mine as the Google Account tied to a free-tier Google Photos upload from my phone. Bad idea. It's a shared pool of storage resources, which was quickly filled up by photos. Leaving Gmail with

QuickTime 7 is the biggest loss. Really wish that would somehow be updated/supported as a 64-bit app, as QuickTime X does not replace it.

I just do not trust that my item will gain enough traffic during the 7 day auction for there to be any competitive bidding. If there's not competitive bidding, it will sell for around the low initial bid. Much better to stage a "R

I've thought about my local University's archive, but I'd like something a bit more DIY and accessible rather than donating images to some bureaucracy and the images never seeing the light of day.

Where is the best place to upload historical found photos like this? I occasionally buy and scan old slides from estate sales and would like to use a site that makes them accessible and searchable. Is there anything better than Flickr?

I find that the Etsy "Vintage" filter still works pretty well to show only true old/authentic items. I love that it is a prominent, top-level control. eBay has nothing like it except for "new/used" Condition, w

I don't understand why "on-ramp" metered lights aren't used in many more places. Like enforcing easy zipper merging. Put lights on both lanes that need to merge together, out there in the middle of the freeway. Turn them

Have any (American) cities/towns simply turned an entire street into a bike/pedestrian path? No cars or limited hours or local access only. Similar to the old-railroad-to-bike-path conversions that are happening everywhere, but fo

I for one quite like the Apple TV 4 remote. It has one major issue in that it's symmetrical and you sometimes pick it up the wrong way. But other than that I love it. The touchpad is great with the Apple TV, especially once you figure
