This morning, to my dismay, I found that my Private Internet Access (PIA) VPN had disconnected. It showed a little yield sign on the toolbar icon. A closer look at the panel showed me a note that maybe my account was disabled or expired. I then logged on to PIA’s web site and verified that … Continue reading Private Internet Access “Connection Refused”
Long story short, if you are looking to find copper-free zinc sacrificial anodes you want “Pool Tool Anti Electrolysis” and, as of today, you want to get them from GetPoolParts.com. To protect my Endless Pool Fastlane I use Zinc Sacrificial Anodes. The purest source for these I had for these was from Endless Pools themselves. … Continue reading Found a great source for my Sacrificial Anodes
So, apparently I haven’t figured out how to use Dashboard for Tesla‘s Speed Clocking app as I did a few trials today and then completely did not manage to save them. However just to note, my 5,000 lb SUV clocked in at:5.0 Seconds for 0-60 MPH, and14.75 Seconds for the 1/4 mile. I think the … Continue reading Informal Speed Clocking For Tesla
I bought AutoSleep, Autowake and HeartWatch (all by Tantsissa) as a bundle. While I believe that AutoWake and HeartWatch are excellent apps (and have reviewed them as such), I cannot say the same for AutoWake. You can set AutoWake up to automatically wake you at a certain time for each day of the week. In my … Continue reading AutoWake iOS App
I’m pretty enthusiastic about 1) McDonald’s, and 2) Apps that can simplify my fast-food ordering experience. IMHO the Chick-Fil-A app came out of the gate working exactly the way ALL fast food apps should work. It’s intuitive, pretty much bulletproof, and every Chick-Fil-A restaurant I went to understood what to do when you showed up … Continue reading McDonald’s iOS App
I bought AutoSleep, Autowake and HeartWatch (all by Tantsissa) as a bundle. While I wasn’t originally looking for a separate Heart Rate app, HeartWatch had excellent reviews and looked like it would appeal to a stats geek like me. I’m super-impressed with it. I actually use it over the the included Apple Exercise app because I … Continue reading HeartWatch iOS App
I bought AutoSleep, Autowake and HeartWatch (all by Tantsissa) as a bundle. AutoSleep has absolutely met my expectations, I used to use FitBit’s sleep function and before that my Jawbone UP!’s app. I did the most research around the Jawbone app and found that it was *very* accurate and was happy with it. If only … Continue reading AutoSleep iOS App
I picked up my Tesla Model X 75D in July of 2017. We walked into the Tesla Showroom in the Avalon on impulse as it was on the way to another store that Michelle was wanting to check out. At the time I had zero awareness that Tesla was producing an SUV and, frankly, only … Continue reading Tesla – 18 months in
I’ve lived in Indian hills for over 20 years now and it seems each year seems to “feature” a different insect as the king for that year. In past years it has been millipedes, potato bugs, Stink Bugs, etc. It’s usually something harmless but still noticeable when you’re doing chores outside. A couple of months … Continue reading It looks like this is the year of the Box Elderbug
*Updated April 25, 2021 to reflect current prices and points for my local Chick-Fil-A* I *really* like Chick-Fil-A. They just seem to know how to do things right. When their app came out I jumped on it and was very pleased that, not only was it intuitive, but also the restaurants knew what to do … Continue reading Chick-Fil-A Rewards Best Redemption Value
