Re: Confused about unlocking an iPhone - 4 months ago

If it is locked, ATT locked it, not Best Buy and THEY are the ones who need to give you the unlock code. Or Verizon does it automatically after 6 months. How do you know the phone is even locked? Did you try another SIM?

Re: How is it that Venmo can transfer money instantly but others cannot? - 5 months ago

They absolutely CAN. They just don't want to. In the modern era of banking checks don't need to "clear" either. The can immediately check if there are funds.

Re: Going to Lithuania in May electrical advice? - 5 months ago

Plug adapters are enough for most things. For sure chargers and laptops. Just make sure it says 220 on it or it will get fried. I had one router that went cheap on the power supply and it was not self switching. Alternately you can get one plug adapter and plug a US power strip into it to support multiple devices. (Though I don't know if that is code or they are rated for that but we do it all th

Re: Choking Safari....what's the deal? - 6 months ago

I have never understood why Apple finds it necessary to stubbornly persist with developing apps that they are just not good at. Safari is a perfect example. Firefox and Chrome are just better, have always been better, and will always BE better. Or Apple Maps for iOS. It will never hold a candle to Google Maps, so why do they pretend that it does? I get it that Google is the competition, but s

Yeah, do they honestly expect ANYONE to believe that he just "bumped his head, went to bed and didn't get up in the morning"? There is far more to this story than they are admitting.

Re: Spent a couple days with a vehicle that has semi-autonomous driving. You can probably guess my take. - 6 months ago

I just rented a Toyota Corolla the first car I ever drove with adaptive cruise control. At first I thought I had a flat tire because I couldn't understand why the steering wheel was fighting me. It scared the hell out of me until I realized what was going on. I found it did relatively well. Yes, if the lines on the road aren't clear it chokes, but I found it did appropriately slow down and spe

Whenever you order something they basically opt you in to a free month trial of Prime and it's very easy to click without realizing. (check the shipping options) They almost got me but I realized at the last second and cancelled the transaction. Anyway no harm, no foul. Just cancel before the month is up.

Re: We all have a date with omicron - 6 months ago

My whole family just had it, and no one caught it from each other. Mostly TRIPLE vaxxed. Put a major dent in our holiday plans. I seemingly didn't catch it despite being exposed too many times to count in the past month, though I tested positive for the regular 'Rona in September (but was completely asymptomatic) so maybe my antibodies did their jobs despite not being vaxxed and not planning on i
