    Historic cicada season coming for some of us. Yuck

    In Texas, it just wouldn't be summer without them.

    Looking at Pontoons, know nothing about them, what to buy?

    Sorry to hear of that. I hope you get them squared away very soon.

    Switched from T-Mobile to US Mobile

    I grouped data & calls as the same which they are not, my mistake. Regardless it's rather odd the way they deal with WiFi. With unlimited calls it really wouldn't matter but it's kinda goofy.

    Anyone here use Amazon fire stick?

    I've had one for several years and recently got the 4K MAX with many improvements. I use it daily but there is a steep learning curve initially. Roku has fewer features but is much easier to use.

    Switched from T-Mobile to US Mobile

    I looked into Tello and it is very reasonable. I did notice that using WiFi still counts against your data. I find this disadvantageous and would not work well for me. My Google Fi plan does not count WiFi against my data usage, I'm on WiFi 99% of the time.

    If the rig near your house is a demo it will have a full warranty. If used it boils down to what the dealer offers as far as covering it.

    Looking at Pontoons, know nothing about them, what to buy?

    ESTIMATED 40 hours? Without an hour meter who really knows? It would depend on the warranty for me to consider that rig. Mid 30 miles per hour is what you can expect with a 150 engine as I stated previously. Your 40 MPH wishes are unrealistic without more muscle. My "advice" is based on two...

    The speed record is 114 MPH. The boat/running gear is highly modified and has custom props.

    Your Biggest Retirement Regret?

    My only regret was not preparing for it MUCH earlier in life. Tough lesson learned.

    Looking at Pontoons, know nothing about them, what to buy?

    40 MPH with a 150 (GPS reading) is highly unlikely. MAYBE with 1 lightweight person aboard and 5 gallons of fuel. 200 is pretty much a requirement to approach 40 mph. Keep in mind when pricing to read the fine print. Many prices are without a trailer which you seem to be aware of. Don't turn...

    Chest vs. Upright freezer - which to choose?

    Same upright here for 15 years or so. Had to have the thermostat replaced once. That was during the late Covid time when new freezers were soaring in price and were also unobtainium. It was worth the $400. Parts no longer existed so the VERY experienced repairman made a different one work. I'm...

    Goodbye T-Mobile-Hello Google Fi

    I live in a very rural area (in the sticks) and oddly enough I get a full 5G signal from TM (Google Fi) in my living room. In the little town about 10 miles away the signal is iffy to nonexistent. Go figure.

    Goodbye T-Mobile-Hello Google Fi

    Google Fi is only T-Mobile. They started with 3 carriers but now is only one.

    Are they doomed?

    Linux, Linux, Linux. Look, I'm soon to be 75 years of age and Windows is all I know. I have ZERO desire to learn a new system. I'll look into the video posted and check it out, Thanks for all the responses.

    Are they doomed?

    You bet it works? Not exactly an absolute solution is it? If a fresh install could be confirmed that it will work that would be the answer.

    Are they doomed?

    I thought it was sooner than that, thank you.

    Are they doomed?

    Are Windows 10 laptops that can't update to Windows 11 kaput after Microsoft pulls the plug? I have one with great specs and still works as it should but I'm leary of continuing to use it when the security updates stop. Any thoughts?
