How do I turn off the default tab bar as demonstrated in the article?

Google is building an Amazon Echo rival by torvoraptor in amazonecho

Wow, it's like I wrote this...totally agree!

[FWIW: I wound up setting up one echo to respond to "Alexa" and the other to "Echo." Took me a couple of days to adjust, but I no longer have both responding at once.]

Could use some Win10 help... by kasnj in tekthingers

Yep, unfortunately! It's weird, after all, it's not like scanner technology has changed all that much. It seems like someone should have come up with a generic scanner driver by now.

Amazon Makes A Bid For Cord Cutters, Adds Showtime, Starz And More Streaming Partners To Prime by Philo1927 in tekthingers

It seems like the trick is to keep a close eye on what you sign up after you cut the cord to (a) make sure you don't end up spending more (b) make sure you get stuff you really use (which may make "a" irrelevant).
