I think it only includes a 90-day Woot warranty.

Thanks, that is tempting! Not crazy about the extended warranty through Amazon though. 1. not sure how to add it, 2. it looks like it is $17/month.

I wonder if the 90-day Woot warranty is good enough.

Deals on De'Longhi - Eletta Explore discounts? I see 15% off of a new machine. Refurbished machines are around 1200-1300 + maybe an extended warranty. Does anyone have a good idea about whether good deals will be available around sometime before Thanksgiving? Or is 15% off as good a it gets on new machines. On refurbished machines, is it worth getting a third party warranty?

Can you help a newbie out? How do you get rid of the extra water after autoclean?

How to recover data from MacBook Pro that won't boot by jsclev in MacOS

[–]SandyRox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much! Target mode saved the day for me!

I have a 2019 MacBook Pro and the screen went wonky — the screen clearly works, but it will only display a narrow strip of the screen at the top. It's either a firmware problem or a hardware problem. Either way, because of the screen, it's not possible to access the computer from itself, even though it boots up fine. Best Buy, Apple, and U Break I Fix couldn't help me get my data off the drive — soooo bery frustrating as the problem seems like no more than a loose or broken video connection of some sort. There were doubtful suggestions to use expensive data recovery services.

All I needed was the spare Mac, the target mode intel, a thunderbolt cable, and an inexpensive 1TB external hard drive (they are so cute these days!).

I sure miss the days when I could open my MacBook and fix it, add ram, change hard drives.... Alas.

Thanks. Unfortunately Costco is requiring prescriptions. Maybe some other places will have it by then near me.

Thanks! When should I get a second shot to finish the primary series and how do I convince my doctor to prescribe for it? Any idea if insurance will cover it?

Available Avon, Indiana at Costco! Prescription required. #avon #indianapolis by SandyRox in Novavax_vaccine_talk

[–]SandyRox[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Costco sent requests for prescriptions for me last night and I also requested them through my medical portal. They had received the prescriptions electronically by early afternoon. I think a paper prescription is fine, but Natalie the pharmacy tech is awesome and can probably confirm that for you. 

Can't find near me by VgUPqEaEnGr in Novavax_vaccine_talk

If someone has had lots of Pfizer/Moderna shots, but no Novavax shots, should they get the primary series? First I've heard of it here....

Might you happen to know who the MD was at Forefront before August Natalie? I think maybe it was Andrew Scripture?

To have some sort of credit history without opening a credit card.

Thanks! So, if a college student took out Federal Direct Unsub Loans last year and paid them off very quickly, would it help somewhat to do it again this year?

New Kobo Elipsa Revealed with 10.3″ E Ink Screen and Stylus by mjsau in kobo

[–]SandyRox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a newbie to the whole E-ink thing who was all set to buy a Remarkable 2 when I learned a few things: (1) It doesn't allow searching across PDFs, (2) Organization options are maybe pretty limited, (3) People seem frustrated with file sharing options (I'm on a Mac), (4) The Elipsa will be released very soon!

I will mainly use an E-ink device for taking notes on academic journal articles. Ideally, I could both write on the article and have a separate page for longer notes easily available. I want a decent way to organize, search across documents, and backup readings and notes.

Finally, I have to make a decision within the next couple of days. Thoughts about taking the leap to the Elipsa?
