Pieces

Raced

Yours

I miss a day now and then for taking my BP. For the most part, I take it after taking my pills of an evening. I try to do that between nine and nine thirty. I sometimes forget that until I'm ready for bed. My meds keep my BP in the decent range most of the time. Once in a great while it will be elevated. Monitoring my BP was the sole reason I bought my Galaxy Watch 3.

The lie continues... from the net: Released on August 5, 2020, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 is a stylish, feature-rich smartwatch available in 41mm and 45mm sizes (Bronze, Black, Silver) featuring a physical rotating bezel, ECG, blood pressure monitoring, and fall detection.

It was never approved in the US but was in almost all other countries. To enable the BP function, the watch owner had to participate with a study in California. I was pissed! I had a perfectly fine Samsung watch already. I log my BP as I said but I don't send the info to my Dr. I keep the log on my phone and show it to them when they suggest I need a stronger med. It's always elevated when taken by the Dr. but the log cools their jets.

Use Rufus or UNetBootin to extract the ISO to a USB drive, creating a bootable Linux image. You can then test drive the Linux distro, running it from the flash drive before installing in on the computer.

I tried Linux Mint and, while it was functional, I also found it clunky with limited customization options... or it just didn't like the hardware. I used Kubuntu on my desktop for nearly a year before getting disgusted with it and replacing it with Zorin OS Pro: which is more stable, has a lot of built-in software, and is very friendly for new Windows refugees. That's the beauty of Linux, though: freedom of choice! It's not just one OS that has to be used by everyone, regardless of how well it works for them... plus, it doesn't mine your data (unless it's Red Hat and I don't use that).

I swipe down to get to the quick settings (or whatever it's called), and no matter how many times I've set it to auto rotate the screen, it's switched back to either portrait or landscape lock a few minutes later. When it goes to landscape lock all on it's own, it's making a lot of stuff difficult as you'd expect. Is this a common issue?

Really moving the full screen around, and you turned it off? Moto actions and clear the data and cache, underneath apps.

Too windy for anything outdoors so I'm making a tea run and a Costco run. They are both on the same side of the city and we are low on everything. Anxious to take a look at the meat counters.

With apologies for the FB link...I don't even know what to call this, but it's amazing.

And I can't even begin to imagine how his mind works.

When I was just a tag along kid, my father would play golf with his father in law and brother in law on a golf course in the pan handle of Oklahoma. They had a drinking well mid way though both the front and back nines that had some fantastic tasting water. The only water that came close was snow melt in a stream on Independence Pass up from Aspen Colorado. I'm talking sixty plus years ago. No idea now.

Think I'll be giving this a miss as well, as I don't have a clue what's going on in the "Disney Star Wars Expanded Universe".

I am with you Mike, I only know the Six movies, the animated show that was...on tv ages ago.. And something Disney hooked up on at one time or another.

I had to google it up. The guy is over weight and diabetic. He takes meds but he doesn't work at the diet end of being healthier. I suspect he is a walking vascular disaster. I hope he hasn't permanent vision damage and the eye stroke isn't a forerunner to a brain stroke.

I had no idea he was that old. I agree he was a great actor and his work will be enjoyed for generations. RIP, Sir

I picked up the graphic novel of it sometime ago, it is well worth the cash!
Such vibrant and dark color clash!

I tell people that I used to bowl. And golf. I bowled and golfed and I was fairly good at both of them... I'd bowl a 230 average and golf about a 72. Then I got married, had kids... over time, something odd happened. My golf and bowling scores reversed so I was bowling a 72 and golfing a 230 (don't laugh: I got my money out of the greens fees because I was out there all day long). I even had a polo shirt with "PLAY THROUGH" embroidered on the back. Finally the PGA sent me a letter, banning me from any course without a windmill on it. That's when I decided it was time to stop both of them. I tell people after I got married, I gave up my balls.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

So, I texted my sister the same website again after telling her I was trying something. My text was sent just as I composed it, and the graphics and ad were not automatically added. Problem solved. Thank you once again. As for "flip to shhh", I guess I can only say "Oh, well". I do know how to schedule modes, but the way you could spontaneously activate do not disturb without even touching the screen was really handy to me. Maybe it will get ressurected someday. I'm quite happy with your assistance, so I am unfollowing this thread. Take care!

Got mom a beautiful boquet of Tulips for Valentime's day, an ex-coworker and kind of crush, gave me a huge hug twice at my side job yesterday.
(Seems like a repeating pattern of mine hahaaa..)

The game above was Monday. Today is Saturday and Kansas was absolutely destroyed by the 5th ranked NCAA team, Iowa State, 56 to 74. I guess that's why I'm a fan of college basketball. It's never a given who is going to win.

In northern Nevada, every now and then my phone will briefly connect with a 3G network, the connection last one or two minutes at most.
The only thing I can think is it was put in place by the bureau of land management, the department of transportation or the forest service, it was set up with or eventually had solar panels installed to charge the batteries
Why is it still operating? I think it was either forgotten about or it's some back up plan. Personally I think it was forgotten about or it was put up on some mountain top and people didn't want to go remove it.
The connection is sporadic, you most certainly won't be streaming Netflix

Yes, it is, because of the hole in the bottom of the glass...
