Say goodbye to Internet Explorer...
Today is the official day that Microsoft discontinues support for Internet Explorer in Windows 10. Hard to believe, but IE has been around nearly 27 years and now and it's fading away. Microsoft Edge has been the replacement for some time now. To he
A boring blog...
I used to work for a company who manufactured upholstered furniture. They processed raw lumber to make the sofa and chair frames. Deliveries came by flatbed trailers and stored outside under the cover of an aluminum roof. 20-30 boards were brought in
Portrait or Landscape...
I inherited the family photo albums and scrapbooks. My brother does the genealogy and sometimes asks for scans of old photos. With the camera my parents owned, all the photos were square so it didn't matter which way the camera was held. Later on, th
Nikola Tesla...
This week, I've gone back to watching YouTube videos about the life of Nikola Tesla and the common thread is he gave too much of his talents away... so much that it drained him. He died at the age of 81 after being hit by a taxi. Many years Tesla had
Converting songs and things to metric...
America made a poor attempt to convert to metric in the 1970's and with the exception of tools and some engineered products, we switched back to the imperial system learned from England. Last time I checked, America, Liberia and Myanmar were the onl
We've been trying to reach you...
A few times a day I receive (robotic) phone solicitation calls to my cellphone offering me discounted healthcare programs and the recording starts with "We've been trying to reach you..." along with that is their takeaway "This is our last attempt to
Uhura had the first Bluetooth...
Star Trek came out in 1966. Uhura was the communications officer aboard the USS Enterprise. Her claim to fame is having the first Bluetooth. It was massive by today's standards and it appeared to have it's own radiator! https:/

HE washer? I'm a frayed again...
The condo I bought had an old washer & dryer. I didn't expect them to last long and I was right. Small capacity, they actually worked well, but they were too small to handle 10 bath towels in a load or a medium weight comforter. A few months ago, th

Microsoft is spying on me...
New computer this week running Windows 10 Pro and updated Microsoft Edge started some things I didn't notice on my older computer it replaced. I'm online making a purchase and when I get to the cart to review, banners fly out to show the same items
Jetson ONE
The 1962 cartoon series The Jetsons is a look at what family life could/would be in the future where every family had their own flying vehicle. YouTube has dozens of videos of experimental one-man drones labeled eVTOL. Vertical Takeoff and Landing.
Where is Ken_19
Nuked by a software glitch. I queried what happened and got the below reply. It seems I am not the only one. Stuff happens. "Hi Ken -- Thanks for the message. Recently a small number of user accounts and their associated messages were accidenta
ANTIDOTE FOR CONSPIRATORIAL,,TRAITOROUS,SOCIAL MEDIA MENTAL WIZARDS....EXPULSION!
Within the last year or so a lot of the social media "clowns" decided they had sucked enough of the economic lifeblood from their customers worldwide,exploited their home countries economic opportunity to the hilt and......ALARMINGLY, have decided to
'Watch' this again...
As followup to my 'Watch' this blog, about the number of people wearing watches that connect to their cellphones, I decided to buy a low-end 'fitness' watch just to check it's operation. I'm highly skeptical these devices could be accurate, at least
Trouble opening blogs and mail,.....
.....they highlight in unusual colors, but won't open. Rest of CS seems OK. Must be what the CS big house looks like. Well, who deserves it more than I? I'll be careful never to bend over to pick up soap in the open pod showers. Adios, friends.
Carbon emissions is not the core of climate change
Carbon emissions may play a part in the environment but is not ultimately the heart of the issue. Heat emissions is the core here's why: The heat of a regular gasoline car is up to 1400 degrees Fahrenheit or 760 degrees Celsius Apply this heat e
Drone ON...
For years, I've been reading about Amazon making deliveries by drone. For the record, it's not perfected yet. Good idea or not, something on a large scale must get the approval of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) which is the same government

Apple Helps Chinese Communists Suppress Protests – Removes Crucial Tool of Dissent on iPhones and Does Not Tell Mainland Users. Sadly, the freedom protesters were not able to use AirDrop, a file-sharing feature on iPhones that allows users to shar
Decibel...
Decibel (dB) is a logarithmic unit to measure sound or electronic signal levels. For the purpose of this blog, I'll use it in audio... sound levels. On another blog, a member will be going to a Formula One race and it's suggested they bring along he
To 5G or not to 5G...
I'm thinking about a phone upgrade this year and the model I want is around $1,000. Scary thought to pay so much for a phone, but there's an interface that connects it to a monitor, mouse and keyboard creating a desktop environment. That way, you don
Tapping fingers...
People are online... and it looks like all systems are up!
I'll never forgive you Google...
Four years ago, I went shopping for a Smart TV. The salesman explained (at the time) the current Smart models had a processor/engine that was slower than some models that weren't Smart. I asked if I buy a non-Smart TV, how do connect it to the intern
Smart TV's.
Bought a couple for the twins, and my thoughts were, another TV gimmick, to rob the poor. But I was surprised to see that this is really an alternative to costly, vapid, cable, broadcast or Satellite TV. ?Good capitalism?
your own personal drone
What do you think? It could have a camera, microphone, it automatically follows you at a distance you do not even know it is there. Perhaps, it could even be armed. Your own guardian angel.... You send it to pick up things from t
Right now, I'm grateful, here on my knees, and not in front of any burning bush.
But the word is finally in, at the "too much money and time on hands" Consumers' Delectronics "group f-ck convention" in LV Nevada. Thank the Goddess, we now have an AI frying pan.That's right peebles. It not only listens and speaks to us, but can g
Battle #2 With The Advertising Algorithms
Early in my relation with Amazon, I made the mistake of buying several items in my cart, just after a price increase. Apparently the algorithms decided that price increases were the way to get me to buy, because pretty soon most of the items in my c
Life before the Internet
This is for young people who weren't around when there was no such thing as online anything. The personal computer wasn't even invented yet. Oh, there were computers, but you needed a forklift to move them and a college degree to be allowed near on
Quad copters large enough to carry a pilot...
Different than my previous blog about a flying car, a quad copter is a large-scale drone with sufficient lift to carry a person and not be flown remotely. Toyota has a SkyDrive prototype and claim to be the first. That's not accurate as other compan
What Will Smart Homes Look Like Soon?
A number of technological traits will drive smart-domestic generation well past what’s available on keep cabinets nowadays. innovations in synthetic intelligence, as an example, stand to upend almost the whole thing in our lives, inclusive of our hou
Breaking the product to get it out of the package...
Seriously, I get it. You manufacture products that are sold in pilfer-proof packages. Unfortunately, the consumer needs special tools to get the package open without destroying it's contents. Computer memory sticks, for example. Small devices that a
UFOs now what?
Back when everyone started to carry a camera on them (cell phone)....the skeptics of UFOs would say, why are we not getting any pictures of them? Today, there are many pictures of them taken. Now what? What is the next move for society?
Samsung DeX...
I bought a refurbished Samsung phone last year to replace one that was around 5 years old. The old phone had a worn battery that needed to be charged a few times a day if I used the GPS and made a few hours of calls. There is a factory authorized ser
laser etched diamonds...
Two coworkers were talking about an expensive diamond ring purchased while on a cruise to the Caribbean. I asked if there was a chance of fraud and they both agreed no, because the diamonds where etched with serial numbers. I'm not into jewelry an
Get the APP...
The list of companies who want you download their app keeps growing. Application Software or in the case of Mobile Apps, is software designed to run on smartphones. The iPhone store has millions of apps designed to run on Apple phones and tablet dev

Forms that clear all the data if one detail was missed. Lots of times we have to fill out forms online. When you get to the bottom and hit the submit button, you expect to move to the next page. MOST forms are programmed that when you ar
Cool Christmas gift...
Every year, I tell my family not to get me anything for Christmas. They all develop selective hearing loss and get me something. This year, I received a small and simple gift that I will often use. It's called GUARD YOURID.
YouTube overload...
Friday... 6pm and I'm unable to get any YouTube videos to play. Checking my bandwidth connection and 3 sites confirmed I'm getting downloads greater than 50mbps. C'mon YouTube, I've got some new helicopter gear and need to see a few setup tutorials
