The "I'm so old" thread game

I'm so old my doctor looks a lot like the girl I liked in high school.
The pcp I had before this one was a girl I went to school with.

I saw her for many years and she took care of me very well.

The day before I was scheduled to see her for a follow up, that morning, while riding her bike, she got hit by a car and died.

sorry did not mean to cast a dark cloud over your post it just remind me of the story, it has been a few years ago, now.

How do I prevent Gemini from speaking aloud when I ask it a verbal question?

But I don't want to have to type it in. I want to ask it a question, which I do in a very quiet voice up to the microphone even in public and it reads that just fine. I don't then want it to start reading/squawking out the response in the loud intrusive way it does, making me have to poke at buttons to shut it up. I just can't find a simple option to stop it speaking at all.
turn down the volume.

What's your go to junk food snack?

Our new go to snack is celery sticks filled with home made pimento cheese. It was one of those "that looks good" Costco buys that was a hit. We bought a large tub of Palmetto brand Home Style Pimento Cheese with Jalapeno. In no time, we emptied the tub and needed more. Not having a desire to make another Costco run so soon, we resulted in making our own. Sharp cheddar, whipped cream cheese, finely diced jalapenos, a bit of mayo and a bit of garlic salt. I'm not claiming that it's better than the Palmetto brand sold by Costco but it isn't bad, easy to make, and handy. It's great filling for a stick of celery or a spread on crackers.

Post Your Last Purchase

There's always a way. I've gotten pretty creative with some of my installations.

Yes sometimes the panel ends up in a location that's not in line of sight while driving, but we really shouldn't be fiddling with it anyway. I have my dual-banders set on the repeaters I use and usually wouldn't need to adjust anything other than volume which I can do by feel.

There are panel mounts that attach to cupholders, CD slots, seat bolts and other places.

Don't give up this easily, I'm sure you can figure something out.

Considering Changing to Motorola Moto G Power 2025

Since I rely on the S Pen, I need a stylus phone alternative to the Galaxy S Ultra series. Samsung gives us fewer and fewer reasons to upgrade each year while charging more and more. The Moto G Stylus (2025) is highly-rated and regarded: the 2026 version is expected in April or May. It has plenty of stylus features, a headphone jack, a microSD slot and 68W charging. The stylus isn't Bluetooth capable, but the S24 Ultra was the last Galaxy device with that feature so that's a non-issue.
