I am pretty sure they do. Not sure how that works on deployment though and I am pretty sure my wife would not enjoy military tents.

I had issues with mine when we visited CA. The OEM fast charger would not charge it fully, but a plain old USB would do just fine. Got home and all was fine again.

No matter what charger I use it tells me that I would probably be better off with the original one. Um it is!!!

Ah, yours has the automatic "there is a new model out so I will malfunction now" service.

yep. I think that is exactly what it has gone and done. But only after we try a factory reset where everything is lost or mashed up into one file.

I have many issues with charging cords. Wen Apple decided that the lightning cord was the improvement they were flat wrong. Unless the definition of improved is fail often. The iPhone have been great, just the new charging cords suck.

You know Glen, those cords are where Apple makes its money.

Yea, they get license fees from the ones I buy.

If ya saw my thread on needing an office chair I, my new chair arrived. I put it together this afternoon. It is fairly comfortable and it does have the footrest and high back for naps. The material is much like a vinyl car seat. The only thing I don't like is it is UGLY. it was marketed as a gamer's chair and I guess they are marketing to snowflake gamers. I am a bit outside that demographic. Since my backside has no eyes (fortunately) I can't see it when seated. I will post a photo later.

Oh brother. Specifically the space ranger, will call him B, just so he will remain nameless.

Few years ago cousin passed and B got legally named executor. The cousin had no surviving brothers or sisters. B got bunch of stuff including Honda Oddity, 3 desktops, 2 laptops, Big TV, Big monitor, bunch of network and gaming stuff. B only uses the Oddity and the two laptops. All the computers have fingerprint authentication on them and B has only had it turned off on the two laptops.

I'm kinda confused because the cousin was a retired bank examiner and was taking care of and inherited his parents stuff. Cousin should have money somewhere that B should have access to since he was made executor by the courts. Seems like he would have at least had bank statements or some account information on one of the desktops to track his money down? Am I wrong?

What confuses me even more is both the cousin and his 10yo Doberman were found dead in his apartment. It was determined they both passed from natural causes. Just seems odd to me.

Party time here. I was allowed to mow the yard this afternoon. There is a big thunderstorm heading this way. The panhandle may get a bunch of snow. We are supposed to have possible high winds gain and heavy rain and hail.

Just wish my garage was wide enough to open the doors on both sides of both cars.

The 43rd Lembo ever made was there.

More cool cars than imaginable. Fantastic facility and car collection. The kitchen was nicer than most houses have. Just total top notch.


Name the car manufacturer of that.
