Just to avoid starting another thread over technology related issues I submit the following:
For the past week I am absolutely bombarded with spam phone calls for about an hour every day. The onslaught lasts about an hour and then everything quiets down. My blood pressure is high enough so instead of shouting at the clouds I just turn my phone off when it starts.
I got 10 spam phone calls between 1:26 and 2:24.
In other news:
Our 10-year-old robot vacuum died, and I got a new Shark robot vacuum - with an app, of course.
It took an hour to get the damn thing to communicate with my phone so I could control it. I'm going to cool down from that experience before I try to load the app on Vicki's phone so she can enjoy the "freedom and convenience" of not simply pushing a button on the machine to make the damn thing work.
