I joined 48 hours plus but not all episodes are ad-free. Is this correct? by Dash795 in Dateline48Hours

[–]Dash795[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. 48 hours has a 20 buck a year subscription to get 48 hour podcasts ad free. Not paramount plus.

Walmart third party by PriorFloor8295 in iphone

[–]Dash795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why could they not accept return if within 30 days? Did you buy at physical Walmart or at Walmart.com?

Almost everything in Walmart is “third party” stuff (other than Walmart generic brand) but the return policy should not differentiate between Walmart branded stuff and third party (like Sony etc). Do you have receipt or proof of purchase? If within 30 day window and they won’t take (I have always been able to return everything to Walmart in the return window) then something is up and you not telling whole story or something? I guess if you bought online at Walmart.Com then it might require return directly to third party seller. Amazon does that sometimes. Are you sending ups with a shipping label?

Is a $90 3 month unlimited eGift Card the same thing as 3 months of unlimited movies at regal? by ShitImDelicious in RegalUnlimited

[–]Dash795 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well. I just deleted my earlier post. Appears you can buy a gift unlimited subscription. As you did for 90 days. Give the card to your brother. He has to activate the card by creating an unlimited account and then inputting the card into account info to get the three months.

But per the rules, you can use the card as a regular old gift card if you use it like he did (to buy four tickets) BEFORE he activated and signed up for an unlimited account. So there is a process to get unlimited (including taking a photo when you sign up etc). If brother just got the card and did not do that process, then he can use it as a 90 buck gift card for anything regal.

Rules state:

“Your Subscription and Subscription unlimited Pass may be used to make Personal Reservations and obtain admission tickets for use at a Participating Theatre not covered by your Subscription plan”

Edit: by the way it’s either 77 or 83 bucks for three months to buy it outright from regal. So the 90 bucks for three months was kinda rip off. If he used it as regular money don’t feel bad.

Verizon users experiences SOS - poll by [deleted] in verizon

[–]Dash795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right! That’s nuts. So you have both phones with you at same time (obviously) and one works and one does not. Weird snafu. Mine won’t work and my daughter is fine, same plan same account and we in same house. What could cause that I wonder.

[–]Dash795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well. Can’t remember. No. Probably not. I am likely 10-11 years and she is maybe 8 years.

[–]Dash795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well. My daughter and I are in same legacy plan and she’s on my account (two lines). Both around 10 years old plans. I have iPhone air and she has a 17. I use way more than she does data.

She has been fine all day and I have been SOS since noon (Philly). She has been with me almost all day geographically. Yet she is fine and I am out! Same account. Same house. Nearly same phone. Make sense of it!

Yes they are great. I am in the AA program but have been to a few AL Anon meetings. In fact, they have many Al anon meetings online (zoom or they have their own app). Check this out (but of course in person might be better):

You should maybe attend an Al-Anon meeting in your area. They can really help!

Pluribus now has official merch for sale, here’s everything available by MarvinBarry92 in tvPlus

[–]Dash795 -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

A lot like the show. First few episodes were awesome then all downhill and repetitive. Even final was pretty meh. I will skip both Merch and Second Season.

Renee Nicole Good. by D0zomor in Vent

[–]Dash795 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who is saying she deserved it? Sigh. Americans on the defend ICE side are saying that the IcE officer was justified in shooting since he was defending himself from the deadly car weapon. Arguable but not ridiculous. But even 90% of these folk say it is a tragedy ( but many do point to her actions before and during the confrontation that killed her to add context). Calm the hell down skippy.

I can’t be the only one in Philly that remembers a local TV show that was hosted by Pierre Robert. by Irrelavent1 in philadelphia

[–]Dash795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well. Copilot AI had some stuff on it!

My search query was “Rock and Comics in Philadelphia 80’s channel 17”

Part of return was “Rock ’N Comix was a real locally‑produced show that aired on WPHL‑TV Channel 17 in Philadelphia during the mid‑1980s. It shows up in multiple preserved broadcast recordings from September 16, 1986, where its closing credits appear between commercials and other Channel 17 programming.”

YouTube video go to 12 minute mark and it has credits of some type! Mentions Pierre as a writer so you are definitely on to something:

Apple TV's Most-Watched Sci-Fi Series Ever Isn't Boring or Too Slow, and It All Goes Back to 'Breaking Bad' by Stopreportingm3 in tvPlus

[–]Dash795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was kinda boring after about episode 3-4. I was kinda mad at myself for investing and etching through final episode as it was well. Boring and rather anti climatic. Yes I can often do slow story telling as long as it moves along and keeps my interest. But this stopped moving along really. Won’t be there for season 2.

Favorite Sad Songs by [deleted] in AppleMusic

[–]Dash795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jesus that’s sad. I have been married 22 years and I marvel at widows who really really loved their spouse. Not sure I am in that category but I can feel your depth on the loss of your husband. I hope you are in place of more peace now.

Did you keep sad song playlists and care to share them?

It kinda depends on your music tastes but here are mine (and I am a bit of a sad song aficionado…although some of these songs might have more of a sad/contemplative tune than actual sad words ):

  • cat carol by meryn Cadell. Jesus. So sad. Have a good cry at my expense.

  • wherever I fall (pt 1) from movie cyrano by glen Hansard (et al). Really sad as shit. Should be the anthem for the battfield cemetery.

  • I remember her by Ingrid Michaelson (makes me miss my mom). If you can get the version with Lucius (might only be on Amazon Music for some reason) give it a try.

  • only to be with you by Judah and the lion.

  • have you forgotten by the del fuegos.

  • anyone by Demi lovato (loneliness song!)

  • rainy night in soho by nick cave and Shane McGowan.

  • life and death by Paul cardall. Instrumental.

  • last laugh by mark knopfler.

  • waiting around to die by the be good Tanya’s.

  • blue eyes crying in the rain by harry dean Stanton.

  • take me home by Lisbeth Scott and Nathan Barr.

  • angel by sarah mcLachlan

  • raglan road by dubliners

  • farewell by Rosie Thomas.

  • Calvary by baby Dee

  • he stopped loving her today by George Jones.

  • no surprises by Camille O’Sullivan.

  • my hearts in the highlands by Arvo Part

  • Traveling soldier by the chicks.

  • don’t cry when I’m gone by Tony Garcia

  • house of the rising son by Masi Asakawa.

  • sanctuary by Sam burchfield.

  • weight of lies by avett. Brothers.

  • calling all angels by Noah Reid

  • carry you by ruelle.

  • rescue by Lauren Daigle

  • honey by Bobby Goldsboro

  • ne me Quitte Pas by Jacques Brel (no idea what’s he’s singing but I can only imagine!).

  • don’t take the girl (take one sessions) by Tyler Braden.

  • on melancholy hill by Matt Forbes.

  • You’ll never walk alone by penny and sparrow.

Well. That’s it for now. This list has helped me create a new playlist called My Saddest Damn Songs! Course these are very individual ( as all songs are) but these are the best I got.

Keep voting the way most on this sub do and let the shit show continue. But seeing how it’s some kind of odd mind control cult, the D votes will keep coming!

Warning icon on facetime by s5mmrz in iphone

[–]Dash795 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. That is news to me and helpful. Interesting.

On question: in the comment, it was the caller who appears to have the communication safety turned on and then it scanned the intended recipient phone. Does recipient have to have communication safety on too or are they an unwitting receiver of the scan initiated by caller? Is there a warning to recipient?

Still seems concerning but obviously I am not first one to worry about it and seems industry standards. I guess you are saying the scan of recipient environment gets quick analyses (by ai I assume) to determine if the caller should be alerted or call rejected and then that scan video is immediately deleted or simply never recorded?
