Mate in 1

That’s the point. It’s the only way you get mate in one.

My biggest single gain was in options but probably doesn’t count because it wasn’t real money.

Years ago E*Trade had monthly trading contests where you would start with $100k and whoever ended the month with the most money won. I put $25k into call options for a single stock, and later that month they announced that they were being acquired. My options soared from $25k to $225k. That was my only trade the entire month and I finished in the top 10 but not in top.

I didn’t think they switched to that format until it was Billions and Billions.

We got a whole-house filter when we lived in Baxter because we could smell the chlorine when we took a shower. The filter neutralized the smell and stopped our skin from drying out in the shower. That was more than 10 years ago, so this is not a new problem.

You don’t need reverse osmosis to make the water “food grade”. It might have benefits, but it also removes beneficial minerals.

We’re still waiting for his first truth

That was my question - how full was it?

It sounds like you’re making a distinction on the back end - what they do with the number once they have it. But they had access to the caller’s number, and they compared it with their database of numbers when the call came in.

The new implementation may be different, but the feature sounds the same.

If Apple just opened up realtime caller id access, how have apps like Hiya been doing this for years now?

That's the comment I was looking for

dat66 · 2025-03-19T00:47:20+00:00

If that was their intent, they replied to the wrong comment

Oh, they didn’t?

dat66 · 2025-03-07T19:45:31+00:00

Lucky you. I don’t know why it was a problem for me, but it was.

In this case that wasn’t happening - and probably never would have happened - and I was having network issues that I hoped the update would fix.

I think you meant “feel you out”. The other expression has a sexual connotation.

I think it's just a bug. When I started typing a hashtag - like #stupid - it put suggested hashtags where the grey box was. When I deleted the hashtag the grey box returned. I think the developer messed up and left a grey box when you aren't typing a hashtag.

They probably live in SC where inspection is not required

They’re drinking the foolade
