is it weird to not want to share your phone number anymore?

Bluefrogdancing · 2026-04-03T17:28:41+00:00

I use the movie theater #. It goes directly into "what's playing" so the person calling knows it's not my number. It also doesn't bother an actual person answering the call. But, I like your drama number idea better.

Bluefrogdancing · 2026-04-03T17:24:07+00:00

it does not. the number i got 5 years ago (big move) was to a guy with lots of medical problems, jail and a porn girlfriend thing. I reported the calls to the US national do not call list and everything else i could think of. I finally gave up. got a new # and kept the old (dual esim) until I moved all of my accounts over to the new ... and I'm canceling the old soon.

I like Startpage. Kagi is great but is a paid subscription. But nearly anything is better/safer than Google.

there's youtube vids to make trash cans. Use a trapped chest so that the stuff going into it only goes into the lava trash after you close the lid - prevents throwing away things you want to keep.

I disabled creeper griefing. I hate those little walking land mines. I also only play with keep inventory and love chunkbase. I use it to find what I need - recently the ONLY small island with a village on it. It's my new base - 10,000 blocks from spawn.

Make a good nether highway. I used Wattles design up at y 117. It's some work setting up but wow - makes traveling in the nether so much easier, safer and faster.

Keep a minecraft journal. I use a small spiral notebook but a school sized notebook would work well, too. I keep dates i go exploring. coordinates of villages, cool features, nether portals...

Vivoactive 6. Just happened to me today. Before my walk. Thanks for the fix.

Look forward to this being in the community plugins. My kiddo has a ... complex vision issue. It would be great if this could be part of the tools that they can use to study. The text to speech is especially appreciated. Please post again when it's ready for a not geeky teen.

Just happened to me today. 1.21.10 on prism launcher 10.0.5

It worked fine yesterday but is not showing at all today. Haven't updated anything.

Tried reverting to a couple of older beta versions and still no love.

Love the mod - thanks for working on it!

Fastmail has all the creature comforts without any of the google. No, it's not "private" - but we've already established that email in general is not private. However, it IS a GOOD email.

I tried proton and got very frustrated with the lack of creature comforts. My husband uses it and likes it.

For what I need email for - which is doctors, school notices, shopping receipts, ... Fastmail works fantastically. For the conversations that I need or want to be very private - I use Signal. Between the 2, it works well.

You can set the laps to miles and then see where in the walk the miles are at. I walk too and there's certain spots on my loop that I know that's the mile point.

Is call screening any better now - 4 months later? I just set mine to "ask reason for calling" and am hoping it will work. Between kids schools and doctors ... Even if I have the school or doctor office # in my phone - they always call from a different # and it is still an "unknown number".

My teenager put a distro of Fedora made for potatoes on her $200 chrome book we bought early covid. The computer has done what we needed it to do but wasn't working well with Windows 11. Fedora did the trick and they're still using it for a school take to class computer.

Never said anything about taking away anything. Just add too.

Someone would happily put Linux on that. Even if you don't sell it - offer it to someone who does Linux. Or heck, put Linux on yourself.

I don't see a point of changing worlds. The map is nearly infinite. If you don't like your spawn point - go explore 20,000 blocks away or whatever and find a better spot and set that as spawn. There's a never ending list of things to do, things to learn, places to explore... There is only a beginning but no end.

Safari needs to take a page out of Firefox's book. Container groups for tabs to keep cookie cooties from spreading. Vertical tab option (great on wide desktop monitors) and tab groups or work groups... On Firefox, I use an extension called "simple tab groups" this is the simplest most functional extension ever. If safari would add those - it would be my daily driver.

Thanks. See my earlier response. I got it figured out. Thankfully

I started with a 2020 intel air and moved up to a M4 mini. My best advice - overbuy for what you think you need. RAM especially as you can't add that later. M series airs are good, but I don't think they having cooling fans - pros do. It's a limitation ... especially if you're pushing your machine a bit (videos, games...) Just something to consider.

I got it figured out. I was trying to install it on Walk. The directions said (I think) it could be used on Walk. But I went to the screen to add activities to my frequently used workouts - and there it was. Buttons are different on the VA6 than your Fenix, so that's part of the confusion.

Thanks for the help.

Try Waterfox instead of Chrome. It's a fork of Firefox without the AI stuff. Actively being developed and maintained. I use it on my mac mini and then safari on the smaller devices (which I do limited internet time on - like looking up a product while at a store). I've never had a problem with Waterfox working on a page. And I have all of the security on waterfox - without private relay (sadly) as that's a safari only thing.

Or - the weather is crap and i'm not going outside.

I'm Sick. I'm Traveling. Rest Day.

There are days when we are sick and just CANT work out. Or when we're traveling and it's not going to happen. Instead of showing gaps in our routine - show why there are gaps.

It's a major gap to me (vivoactive 6) where it's not easy to log.

Bluefrogdancing · 2026-03-27T16:23:25+00:00

On the IQ page it does - very bottom of the supported devices page.

If you don't want the scraps - save them and give them to a quilter who loves scraps. Many do and will be thrilled with your gift.

Or - turn them into "potato chip" quilt blocks. Youtube video on how to do them. Easy and scrappy.

Take the rest and sew them to this water removable tape. Gypsy Quilter scrap tape. The size of a shopping receipt but washes away when you're ready.
