Re: Biden wins Arizona {again} ... and gains "360" more votes - Today

QuoteSpeedy I, for one, will wait until the auditors are audited. The Democrats said this was a scam and the RINOs locally in Arizona said it was a scam so the auditors need to be audited. Until Pres. Trump wins, the audits of the auditors of the audit of the auditors of the vote counters must continue.

Re: My vaccine card says “Stephan” rather than “Stephen” - Today

when did this happen and when did you notice this? which vaccine did you get? if you took a 2 shot, did you ask at the second visit? On my card the first date was 5/1/21 and the second date was 5/22/20, she immediately wrote a 1 over the 0

Re: Will the European Union make USB-C mandatory on Apple devices? - Yesterday

they have (had?) a micro-USB mandate, and Apple does sell (or include for free?) a micro-USB to Lightning adapter in Europe. I have one of those. I imagine they could do a similar USB-C to Lightning adapter to comply with these laws.

Re: Unexpected consequence of updating to ipadOS 15 on my iPad Mini 5 - Yesterday

The bigger issue is Apple changed the size of the icons. Everything is a bit smaller now and adjusting the setting to increase the size of the icons doesn’t make much of a difference at all. The icons increase in size just a small amount. I’ve yet to find a setting that further increases the size. My eyes aren’t happy with this at all. Tell me more about this (just kidding).

Re: Moderna vs. Pfizer: Both Knockouts, but One Seems to Have the Edge - Yesterday

correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the Pfizer-BioNTech has received full authorization (at least for people over 18, I think kids 12-17 are still under emergency authorization) but Moderna is still on emergency authorization stage for people over 16 (and not available for kids under 16). Seems to me like FDA needs to review their priority list.

Re: FU: Water Heater Warranty doesn't "Go To Eleven!" - 2 days ago

QuoteSpeedy They are expensive throwaway appliances that are a scam because a second anode doesn’t cost so much more. That 12 year model premium you pay over a six year model is almost all to pay for the extra years of warranty, not the cheap second anode. ... What if you replace the anode every 6 years or perhaps even 4-5 years, would these last a longer time? My plumber charged $200 somet

This code is supposed to assure an online merchant one is doing business with that they are in possession of the card, and not using numbers somehow gleaned from some unaware account holder. It's a small thing, but I like it. I wish there was the ability to generate a one-use

QuoteMike Sellers I changed my Apple password a few years ago, but still have to use my old password sometimes when I log in to the App Store. It's annoying, especially since the old password isn't nearly as secure as the new one, which is why I changed it. Wow, is Apple running old servers somewhere that didn’t get updated?
