Junk Drawer / Tool Box

My wife's mother lives in a senior condo development in Massachusetts; when we visited her a couple years ago my wife was rinsing dishes after dinner and when she went to put them in the dishwasher, it was all full of dry goods. It still worked just fine, her mom had simply quit using the dishwasher other than for storage. ;)
Our dishwasher was the second unit that I remodeled this fifties vintage kitchen to accommodate. It was getting old and not doing a great job. The kids moved out and it was just the wife and I. It wasn't a chore to simply do the few dishes we used vs letting a few days accumulate before running a load. I have not missed the appliance and truly love cabinet that took it's place.

Favorite Coffee

The Harry & David stuff wasn't too bad. Wasn't very strong, mild. Worth a try. I am using a pod machine i got from Walmart, this is like my 5th or 6th one, I have also gone through two regular coffee pot machines
And that was the dark roast. ;)

Is this the pod machine?

It's quite popular and I've used it at friends and relatives. Probably the one I'd buy if I were ever to go to pods, but I just can't bring myself to do that due to the cost and the problem of the waste. :(

Whatever happened to salami?

Salami; cotto salami, Swiss cheese with mustard on rye bread. My favorite sandwich treat. ( Behind a cheeseburger but that's another thread.)
Sardines; never saw boneless, skinless, headless and tailless sardines before.

Twinkies; hate them. Always have.

Y'all need to try chicken Gizzards.
ive had gizzards and livers
dont like the gizzards, that texture is just gross

ive had livers two different ways, really good and really bad

not worth the 50/50 chance for me

and sardines are just incredible
i dont know why Ocean Prince quit making the ones i liked so much

and i have tried many different kinds and almost never had any come to what i had for the time they made those

imagine sardines that didnt taste fishy

Micro USB to USB C adapter that preserves OTG functionality?

Puppykickr, if you're not sure that your Motorola is OTG compatible, download one of the OTG checker apps, from the play store.

I used one on one of my old ones once and it confirmed mine. There's a lot there and I can't remember which one I used. Try one or three to confirm and then delete.
i just use CPU Info from F-droid.
it tells you whatever you need to know about an individual device.

Problem opening links in K9 Mail

I've now discovered something that's left me even more baffled. I've found that if I reply to my daughter's email in Thunderbird or in K9 the link in the copy it places in the sent folder is converted to clickable. It also works if I forward the email to myself - the forwarded message has a clickable link (see before and after screenshots below). Not only that but the email addresses in the To and From fields (that I've blanked in the screenshots) are converted to mailto: links.

Contrary to what I've said earlier it now appears that this behaviour is not restricted to K9 - both it and Thunderbird seem to be behaving in exactly the same way.

Make what you can of that o_O. Once again any insights gratefully received.

Tell me a joke...

I was strolling the street of a town I was visiting and stopped for a quick bite at a sidewalk cafe. There I saw a curious activity going on.

A man, with an orange safety vest, would dig a hole between the sidewalk and the street. The hole was as wide as it was deep. He would then walk about 100 feet down the road and dig another one.

About two holes behind him, another man in an orange safety vest would shovel the dirt back in and fill up the hole.

This went on and on, block after block. I sat there in stunned amazement, curious about what they were doing.

Once they were about two blocks away, I walked in their direction and caught up with the man filling the holes. I told him I'd been observing their hard work, but didn't understand what they were doing or why. He was happy to explain:

"Well, we usually work as a 3-man team," he said casually, "but the guy who plants the trees is out sick today."

Public disgrace er storage

They should be challenged. It is not only hugely inconvenient for a person to have to obtain another instrument of payment such as a money order or cashier's check. There is also the added charge for said instrument, which may go up to several dollars. Considering how much hot water this corporation is in, how many customers they have lost, how badly they mistreat their own employees, etc., they should tread carefully. They might actually be in danger of going out of business.
believe me when i say that in the long run you are much better off buying a shipping container and using that instead of a storage facility

also keep in mind that you cant take any of your stuff with you when you pass anyway

this is coming from a screwup that has lost most everything over and over

How to Change Default Voicemail To Audio

i barely use voicemail myself, so take that in mind with whatever i think up here

have you called your voicemail and gone through all of the settings there?

also, during one or more of my bloatware/google purges, i seem to remember an app or apps related to video voicemail.

perhaps you could use the Shizuku & Canta method to eliminate the app(s) altogether and leave your device no choice but to do your bidding
