Keriug Coffee

The Boss Lady bought me one for Christmas in like 2020. We've about settled in with the Walmart's "Great Value" coffee. She likes the medium roast and I like the dark roast.

I've got a set of the refillable pods and I'm thinking that I've got a bag of Cafe Bustelo that I need to use. I've been making mine into iced coffee because of my top plate and am missing out on the coffee punch.

NCAA Men's Basketball 2025

Even though the big tournament is still a long way off, I can't wait for the basketball season to start again! I'm still rooting for my Wichita State Shockers, even though I know that crazy years like 2013-2014 are hard to replicate.
Always great to meet another Shox fan! The chances of WSU landing another Fred and Ronnie duo is slim and none. There is always that chance... I hope you got to see some of the AfterShocks in The Basketball Tournament. I rooted hard for those guys and was so happy to see them win the million bucks. It was fun to watch and root for them and it was also good to see the round house packed again. Wichita loves it's basketball!

This is how they do it in California/Part Deux

Bed, Bath & Beyond won’t open stores in California. Here’s why​


Published: Aug. 21, 2025 at 6:21 AM CDT

Bed, Bath & Beyond is opening stores again after filing for bankruptcy and closing all its stores in 2023, but there will not be any in California.

On Wednesday, Bed, Bath & Beyond’s executive chairman, Marcus Lemonis, explained why the company has decided not to open stores in the state.

“California has created one of the most overregulated, expensive, and risky environments for businesses in America,” he said in a statement.

Lemonis claims that the state’s “higher taxes, higher fees, higher wages” are unsustainable for many businesses.

“We’re taking a stand because it’s time for common sense. Businesses deserve the chance to succeed. Employees deserve jobs that last. And customers deserve fair prices. California’s system delivers the opposite,” he said.

California will still be able to shop at Bed, Bath & Beyond, but only online.

Lemonis said the company is investing in a “California strategy,” which will include same-day delivery, as well as 24- or 48-hour delivery.

California Governor Gavin Newsom’s Press Office said in a post on X that they “wish them well in their efforts to become relevant again.”

Bed, Bath & Beyond reopened its first store in Tennessee on Aug. 8.

Dialling shuts down my screen.

I checked with Moto G support, and went with their "Software" fix. It checks your hardware, removes all installed apps, applies any android updates, and then re-installs all the apps. It took a while, but it gave me back almost everything I had as I had installed and arranged it, including nested icons on my home pages. Brilliant, because it eliminated all the stuff about dialling shutting the phone down.

The only apps it didn't re-install was a voip utility for sms from voip.ms . Voip.ms' s new free softphone app is a bug-free version of Groundwire, which I have used for years, which II swapped for VOIP.MS's free softphone. All my dialing problems have gone away, except one: I still need to enable speakerphone to hear and be heard, but the cellphone now stays on.

I am wondering if maybe I have a hardware problem. Any thoughts on how to check out the hardware without dis-assembling the phone?
was the "software fix" this?

and yes it is possible that your phone could have a hardware issue.

No notification number in icon badge

Hmm well uninstalling, restarting the phone, and then reinstalling didn't work.
OK I guess I'll just contact the dev in the morning and see if they can offer any support here.
I did send their Support an email. Given that I'm not a paid subscriber, I'm not sure how quickly they'll get back to me, or what they will offer. We'll see.

If anyone has any other troubleshooting tips, I'm all ears.

Possible xfinity/comcast scam

It this day and age, it does seem more than a bit odd, to receive something and also receive a paper bill. I can't imagine any company trusting they would receive a payment after delivery. The gamble of online consuming falls on the buyer and not the seller. You buy... they ship. That doesn't explain exactly what is going on but the red flag has been raised. I would definitely be contacting the shipper immediately.

The Drone Thread

The display was the major problem with the DJI drone I owned. The cradle on the controller to connect most all modern phones was two short. Putting the phone in airplane mode to avoid an interruption and trying to see the phone display in full sunlight also proved to be a problem. I finally sold / basically gave away my drone. It was fun but not entertaining enough for me.
That's part of what's cool about the Antigravity setup. Those goggles would be great...at least once you got used to it.
