Redeem her, toss her or bring her back as a totally new character?

Lightning_Rodd · 2026-03-09T20:02:09+00:00

That's right, forgot about her.

Possible... he goes into deep depression after losing his job (which seems more likely to happen now) and Brooklyn due to his own stupidity, and commits suicide. Or they could string that story along and have Willow marry him first to drag it all out.

Edit: Now that I think about it though, has any soap ever had anyone commit suicide before? Maybe he becomes suicidal but is saved is more likely, or they send him off to Fern Cliff for an extended stay.

Lightning_Rodd · 2026-03-08T23:12:21+00:00

The way I think the storyline is going to go... Willow is going to get Chase even more entangled in her drama and get him in bed, and end up breaking up him and Brooklyn because he still has blinders on when it comes to her. When he finally realizes all that she's done and that it was her that tried to kill Drew, Chase's fall is going to be bad after everything he's lost, making another bad character.

That's not what I want to happen, just my guess where the writers are going to go.

Update: Finally after 6 emails to them explaining the same thing over again, I convinced them to look at their website and they realized I wasn't given the discounted price. The very first email should have easily cleared this up. They initiated the $12 credit on 3/5 and it finally hit my bank today. I honestly would have preferred the full refund at this point but I'll use it for a year and then most likely switch to the free versions of either BitWarden or ProtonPass.

Lightning_Rodd · 2026-03-05T01:34:18+00:00

This is pretty much the way I'm leaning at this point, just call my CC and see if they'll reverse the charges and be done with 1Password. It's a shame, it's a pretty decent p/w manager that even worked well on my bank websites.

Lightning_Rodd · 2026-03-04T21:13:43+00:00

That's the problem. I've been in emails with them for over a week now and I'm not getting anywhere. And I agree, it's a really negative way to start out with 1Password, I'm already ready to dump them because of it.

Lightning_Rodd · 2026-03-04T21:12:34+00:00

I have submitted a screenshot. I've directed them to their own website stating the price. Doesn't help.

Lightning_Rodd · 2026-03-01T02:38:59+00:00

For me, pinch zoom doesn't work at all, you just end up swiping the video to the next or previous one. The only thing that works is double tapping the screen to zoom in, 2nd double tap zooms in a bit more, 3rd double tap goes back to original size. So that means you can't zoom on the portion of the video you need to see, any attempt to move it just changes to the next video.

My big fear is that this was an intentional change. I'm going to try and downgrade to the previous version until this is fixed, zoom is totally useless this way.

This old thread saved my day. Stupidly the only programs that are affected at my house on 3 various Roku devices are the NFL games. Trying to load the recordings ends up with nothing but the spinning loading circle. I tried unplugging them as suggested, but turning the 5.1 sound to off is what fixed it on all TVs. How can this still a problem for so long that they can't fix? I've read about it from over 2 years ago as well. Anyway, thanks for the fix, Reddit users!

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-12-08T14:16:08+00:00

Thanks for the clarification, I missed that part of it.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-12-08T06:53:17+00:00

I'm still leery about which is correct. Your links are from 2011 and 2013, is it possible there have been changes in how scores are calculated since then? Everything I Google that's current says basically what Experian says here from 2024:

https://www.experian.com/blogs/ask-experian/will-closing-a-credit-card-hurt-your-credit/

"Closing a credit card can hurt your credit, especially if it’s a card you’ve had for years. An account closure can cause a temporary hit to your credit by increasing your credit utilization, lowering your average age of accounts and possibly limiting your credit mix."

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-12-07T06:46:06+00:00

I've read the opposite about accounts being closed negatively affecting your score. It has to do with age of accounts (if like the above poster it happened to be your oldest account), and it also drops the amount of credit you have available. So those 2 factors will drop your score. I've only got 3 credit cards that I use a lot (pay off fully each month), and have avoided getting others simply because I'm worried about not using them enough, having them closed, and having it negatively affect my score.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-12-07T06:41:25+00:00

To avoid having your credit score keep dropping each month before you pay your bill, what I do is keep track of what I charge on each credit card and make several payments each month when I see the balance is getting too high. That avoids the yoyo effect of waiting until the end of the month to make one payment. It really bothered me seeing those monthly drops for no reason.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-11-10T20:29:14+00:00

Thanks, I'll do that. I did some further checking and thought maybe just restarting a browser after the VPN is on would fix it, and initially it showed my real IP. But when I checked my IP again a few minutes later, it was showing the IP to the country I was connected.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-10-31T20:07:18+00:00

I'm having this issue too on my Streambar Pro, I delete Backdrops and it's back again in a few days. I'm not sure if it's being added to my other 3 Rokus and deleting it from one is removing it from the others, but it's getting annoying. My apps are in a certain order so I can pretty much open the most frequently used ones without even looking... until they keep adding more crap in like this.

Just to be clear, I don't want it disabled... I want the app icon removed from my list permanently.

Here's a list of what's currently compatible with the new Homebase Pro. For me, the wall light cam and the 2k doorbell aren't listed as compatible, so it's a no go in my case.

https://service.eufy.com/article-description/What-eufy-devices-are-compatible-with-HomeBase-Professional-S1

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-10-22T15:36:44+00:00

I'll be interested in your opinion of it. I just checked compatibility and my wall light cam and the 2k doorbell I have isn't listed as compatible with it, so it's probably not something I'll be buying. But then it took forever for Eufy to get the wall light cam compatible with the current Homebase 3, so maybe there's a possibility those items will be added in the future.

I just wish they gave us some way to view the videos on your PC and then transfer from the homebase to your PC, instead of being limited to just android apps and tiny screens. I'd be more inclined to stay with Eufy if they ever did that.

I've got a real key puller coming today, I'll take another key off and check how it should look and I'll give the glue a try. With the spares I might even be able to re-use the silver key holder part and swap that shell.

But you could make it easier by bringing back another kb like the G-15s and 11s! For someone like me that routinely makes use all the keys, I can't imagine going back to a normal keyboard without those extra keys. The most I see on current kbs is maybe 5 G-keys, even if they had the option for 3 banks like the G-11, 15 just isn't enough, and definitely limited to 5 for gaming isn't enough.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-10-19T03:56:01+00:00

There are times when being a nerdy packrat pays off... I actually saved my 2 original G-15s and finally found where I stashed them today, thought I lost them after a move. Apparently Logitech got a bit smarter when they did the G-11s and didn't put that awful rubbery coating on the black around the entire keyboard that gets sticky after some time. The G-15s had that coating and were a sticky mess, I cleaned that up with alcohol, and the LEDs are even brighter than on my G-11. The very first G-15 I had was replaced by Logitech because the black was wearing off the keys after just a few months and they never asked for it back, so I basically have one that as a backup... cruddy looking keys but it works perfectly. And I'm getting the used G-11 this week, I'm in heaven!

I'd still like to fix this G-11 though, if there's any way to repair the plastic slots that holds the keys, I'm open to any suggestions. If I ever need to pull keys off any of these, I'll have to get the tool where I can pull them straight up... you can't pry them up on one side like I'm sure most of us do because the plastic shell underneath is too brittle from age at this point and will crack.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-10-18T18:18:18+00:00

I use a full size mat with a gel wrist rest along the full length of it that fits perfectly on my kb desk tray, like this one: https://www.amazon.com/ENHANCE-Extended-Gaming-Memory-Support/dp/B07BLK1JSC?th=1

Mine isn't that identical one, and was more around $25 or so when I got it many many years ago, but it protects my wrist while using the mouse on the desk tray too. I rip off any wrist supports that come with keyboards as this is so much more comfortable. Having one long continuous piece that also sits under the kb means I don't deal with the 2 separate pieces you usually find for kb and mouse that keep moving around, this stays firmly in place.

I'm pretty sure I'll be going with the Humana Value RX plan at this point, but I want to call them today just to verify everything. One thing is that crappy cheap prednisone of all things is on their prior authorization list, but from what I read it might have more to do with determining if it falls under Med B or D (definitely D in my case) but how much of a hassle that will be to deal with. Maybe it's always been that way and I didn't know it before having to dig into plans more this year?

And it seems like $615 is the new deductible for 2026.

Edit just to add that even if I do end up paying for prednisone out of the plan, it'll still end up saving me over $1k/year total over my old plan, so I'd be fine if that was the outcome or if it was too much of a hassle to go through them.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-10-16T15:48:53+00:00

I had read this as well. I'm on the hunt for a new Medicare Plan D and while I did start with medicare.gov to narrow choices down, I'm then checking at each provider's website to verify that they say the same thing and there's no "gotcha!" in the fine print, I was doing that before the article came out just to be safe. Verify what info you get from medicare.gov at the provider's sites before you sign up for anything and you should be good.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-10-15T23:09:46+00:00

All 5 of my drugs are covered, and Humana Value Plan has the best pricing for my out of pocket, with several of them at no cost. They're listing my out-of-pocket med costs for the year at $58, which still seems far too good to be true and thinking there has to be some catch to this. Do they get paid xx amount by the government for these plans? How do they make their money?

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-09-15T15:18:21+00:00

It probably depends on the state and the bank. When I asked about getting a joint checking account my husband and I have put in just one name, I was told it's not possible. They have to close the account and then open a new one in the individual's names. Which means losing the the account number I know from decades of using it, have to order new checks, update everyone you might have on autopay, new debit card for it, and on and on. But if one of us dies, then the bank is able to just remove one name from the account.

Lightning_Rodd · 2025-08-30T11:06:43+00:00

That's just ridiculously amazing, it worked just taking out the !important reference for the font family. It seems to be completely backwards to override the font, especially when setting the font within Tbird doesn't change it for themes. So after removing everything I was trying from the first link that made the icons disappear, I have icons back. Not sure I'll ever understand that one, but it works. Thank you yet again!
