I've always been partial to Asus. Currently using Asus RT-AC68U, replaced my RT-N66U. Strong, solid, and I think the last time I called for support, remember being satisfied dealing with them.

Re: A reverse phone lookup site that actually seems to work - 6 months ago

They seem like the same sites, or using the same setup. I put in all of my numbers. Either there was no info, or the info was wildly wrong, with incorrect owners, places, etc. By name was also beyond incorrect. At the "other suggestions" via sponsored links, we did come up once. Maybe that's a good sign?

Keyboard shortcut issue . . . - 6 months ago

Ever since I updated to Mojave, I noticed that if my cursor happens to be in a text field, and I use the "command-h" shortcut to hide the app, the app hides, but an "h" gets typed in the field. This has become quite annoying, as I don't always notice when it happens and sometimes what I've been working on get replaced by said "h". I've never had this issue before,

If it's sitting in a mis-alignment, it won't show on an X-ray, the pain can be intermittent, and the trigger could be in your hips, with your knee trying to compensate. PM me if you want more of how I know this and what I do about it.

Re: Urgent Care places - pros and cons? - 6 months ago

Used urgent care a number of times. Good for things that you need a doctor for, but don't really constitute an ER visit. Have a couple that easy to get to in my neighborhood and not long waits at all. I can even look them up on their web sites, or call, and see how crowded they are.

Re: Safari issue with website . . . - 6 months ago

QuoteSTL Try "Empty Cache" from Safari's Develop Menu Didn't have any effect. Thanks for the suggestion, though. It does seem like some bit of corruption, as every other site has no problem. Would it have something to do with my IP address, since the "private browsing" window would mask it?

Safari issue with website . . . - 6 months ago

I had no problem with this one website. Then, a few days later, my login wouldn't work - said couldn't find, etc. Deleting cookies, etc, made no difference. FireFox worked fine. One of the suggestions they sent back was to try it with "private browsing". It worked! So, what would all of a sudden prevent me from logging into this one site unless I was using "private browsing&q

While long, to "taste" the process and not feel as though things were left out or "interpreted" is everything. I have such a better understanding of the individuals, their dynamics, and the sense of freedom in their work. I do hope that people who watch the whole thing might start to understand what it actually takes to create. A large number of my clients buy into the fi

How many times I've wondered what it would be like to see the creation process of many classic tunes of any genre, and I actually got to be there with this. Amazing. And to see the dynamics between them (setting aside Yoko) was also revelatory. There is SO much going on. Looking forward to Parts 2 and 3.

Re: speaking of soap... - 7 months ago

Both of these are very good and truly not drying. We use Olive Oil soap from Palestine. A bar lasts a good long while- Before that, we used Kiss My Face Olive Oil soap. They had shut down for a while, but are back now. Really liked it, but a bit more expensive than the Palestine one, and doesn't last as long.

Re: Wood toilet seat . . . - 8 months ago

Quotemattkime If you're going to refinish a new one, why not refinish the old one? Particularly after all that effort has gone into it....fitting you like your favorite pair of jeans. It's a good number of years old and the finish is now quite bad. I'd still have to find a temporary seat, as it's the only one in the apt., so I might as well start with a new one with a good finish to begin with.

Wood toilet seat . . . - 8 months ago

Need to replace my wood toilet seat, especially because the finish has worn off. I was thinking of doing a couple of layers of polyurethane on the new one to help keep that from happening again. Any reason why that's not advised? Thanks!

Re: One more Medicare Part D question - 8 months ago

QuoteJoeM QuotergG QuoteAmmo I also recommend checking out Good RX. It’s weird that I can get much better prices on some of my prescriptions by not using my Part D insurance. It’s important to shop around different pharmacies to compare costs - they can vary widely depending upon where you have your prescription filled. In my area (for my meds) Costco and Hy-Vee usually beat other drug stores
