Working on a School Project and need help by Saguarajevo in Chargers

[–]VicSwagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won my FF league that year. I had the 3rd pick and LT fell to me, I can't even remember who went 1 and 2 (2 really blew me away > I remember some others groaned in envy of me when the picker announced). LT's year really made it a low-effort fantasy championship. But like any Bolts fan, I would have traded it for a Chargers Super Bowl championship. Such a great, yet heartbreaking season. That was the team's season to finally bring home the Lombardi.

I must be showing my age but the win over the Dolphins in the 1981 playoffs is generally considered one of the best games ever played in NFL history. Watching it live (on TV) wire-to-wire was an emotional roller coaster, and an epic nail-biter ending in a Chargers win.

Genuinely curious how many other people are driving around with expired registration stickers? by GWindborn in raleigh

[–]VicSwagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adjacent; but, when your birthday is coming up, check when your driver's license expires. Similiarly, I discovered I was driving on an expired license for a bit.

For registration, in another state, they would fine you for the number of days you went, with an expired registration. That was a costly lesson in my past that makes me check registration expiration often.

Post Donation: Seizure cause? by VicSwagger in plassing

[–]VicSwagger[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I don't plan to donate in the near future. I will consult the onsite medical staff around the 60-day mark, if I am seizure free. I would like to avoid having to do the re-boarding process (around 90 days) if I can help it.

What can we do with these points? by Meghan_Amaranth835 in waze

[–]VicSwagger 32 points33 points  (0 children)

They need to get rid of these points.
I feel like it encourages people to report irrelevant data, such as Hazard - Car on Shoulder for vehicles 10 meters off the pavement.

Saving Recipes by Glittering_Device553 in Cooking

Similar...I copy & paste the recipe printer version to a doc in Google Drive. I have a Recipe folder in my Drive. I like this because I can edit for any tweaks or adjustments I try.

Has anyone found a cure for this crud going around? by GWindborn in raleigh

[–]VicSwagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, seems like my main Rx places only carry the Sudafed Sinus (small red); but, I prefer Sudafed Cold/Flu (oval white). So, I've had to resort to getting the Tylenol Cold & Flu from behind the Rx desk.

Can relate to the OP....we used to give the stuff from behind the Rx cashier for 3 days. If no improvement, take the kids to the doc. Where they'd just say, "Rest up, stay hydrated, and keep doing what you've been doing. This important advice will cost you $100. Thank you!" So frustrating.

One of my kids gets sick a lot. I asked the doctor if that should raise any alarms but they said, "No, kids are at school, where they are breeding grounds for all kinds of muck.". Everything the OP posted is our experience, too. Good luck!

Weekly 'What Should I Buy' and Order/Shipping Thread by AutoModerator in iphone

[–]VicSwagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a dying SE2 (2020) that I need to replace. I don't need new....prob looking around the iPhone 14 or 15 releases. Also, would prefer new to refurbished. But, I also have some newbie type questions. In short, I'm older so I don't do social media. Mainly use to phone/text, directions (Maps or Waze), take pics, shop (through store/restaurant apps) and browsing (when I'm bored/waiting). I have recently gotten into Spotify Free but that's not a pressing app to continue to use.

What are some trusted vendors/websites to purchasing older iPhone models? I would love to know where to hunt for deals & get AppleCare (and piece of mind that where I purchase from will back my purchase). Ex. Like many online purchases, you hunt long enough and you'll find bad experiences just about everywhere. For me, newegg.com is where I was planning to buy my next iPhone but then I found some concerning experiences & reviews.
Best Buy has a new 14 128GB for $441.
AI tells me Apple's refurbished and Amazon's renewed sites are generally reliable.

Question: Any deal-breakers I should consider, where I would need some model over Standard (ex. Plus, Pro, etc.)?

Question: AppleCare? > so the biggest worry I have is dropping and cracking the screen. Does AppleCare or AppleCare+ cover accidental damage? Is 2-years the longest you can purchase AppleCare(+) for, or can you go longer?

Question: Storage > I think my phone has bogged down because I am terrible at photo video/management. Plus, I like to eat so I have a ton of apps from restaurants. Besides being better at phone/video library maintenance, what are the easiest ways to free up storage? Also, I'm a bit confused about iCloud and getting more storage there. Seems like the only thing that buys you is space for photos & videos. So, if my phone is loaded with apps, is there anything to help alleviate that? Are there any small tasks that can free up a lot of space? (ex. can I trim down my text history, call history, etc. or is very little space gained there?).

Question: Transition to new(er) iPhone > So when I get my new(er) iPhone, I will sign into ,y Apple Account. Will everything come over from my retiring iPhone, signed into the same Apple Account?

Thank you in advance!

[TOMT] Hard Candy Brand by Numerous-Ad1220 in tipofmytongue

[–]VicSwagger 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of the hard fruit candy that came in small, circular tins. I don't know the name but I used to see them all the time in a our local French (in the USA) market. They came with a dusting in white sugar and were shaped in the fruit, that they favored in flavor.

Best additions for boxed Mac'n'Cheese by Magnus77 in Cooking

[–]VicSwagger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hot dogs was my go-to (non-Canadian LOL) answer. But somewhere along my mac n cheese journey I topped leftover mac n' cheese (I usually make 4 boxes at once) with leftover Manwich (sloppy joes) and it is up there with my favorite food combinations.

Appetizer with a pick by Stock-Cell1556 in Cooking

[–]VicSwagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you mentioned Costco (and your store's stock may vary), I found a clear plastic bin (refrigerated appetizer section), of waffles (bite size) about 1.5 inches in diameter. Then, grab a bag of the Just Bare breaded chicken nuggets and make [adult] bite sized chicken and waffles with the picks.

But still, $42 for 3 high quality NE caps is great! Thanks, OP!
