I hang onto my tech as long as it functions. I still have an iPhone 6 and it does the job. I've been looking at the new hotness but wow, what a price!

I might have posted this already in the old folks thread but worth a look if you have to pay for prescriptions

Yep. You have to prove that you already have credit monitoring. I was like OK fuck you, you win, I'll take the 4 years of credit monitoring.

Phone fucked up today big time. After 2 weeks of GPS not following along when in motion, I totally lost service.
Shut off and turned on, got no sim card message.
Took to Verizon and they put a new sim card in and it wouldn't activate. So I bought a new phone.
Now if only I can figure out how to work everything. Another wasted night trying to set it up the way I need it. Sucks.
Nice phone though.

I guess I'll have to watch a Samsung tutorial. Always had LG phones, this isn't as easy as I thought it would be.
I feel temporarily cut off from the world.

Lol. I thought that was an ad for a split second. And for another split second I thought how appropriate for the computer thread.
All that took about 1/32 of a second, then I realized that I still had 31/32 of a second left so I took a pic of a rainbow across the street so I wouldn't waste the whole second.

I was reading some reports about how many people STILL fall for any number of phishing and spoofing attacks. And the fact they have become even more sophisticated in their techniques using social engineering schemes and technical subterfuge. Sure, you may not fall for this but how about your Mom, Dad and Grandparents? Have you had a talk with them about this?

Another breach, Yahoo this time. (looks like having a e-mail account qualifies you)

Yahoo could pay you $358 for its massive data breach settlement. Here's how to claim it
Was your Yahoo account among the 3 billion struck by multiple data breaches between 2013 and 2016? You might be eligible for a $358 payout or two years of free credit monitoring.

So, I just noticed today when logged into a Google account and trying to use Google search, you get a new format:
instead of this which I'm used to:
Appears to be the "mobile" version, so now I have to be logged out of Google account to get the desktop version. From what I've read they also changed the search algorithms as well. Just when I've got used to the new and improved "News"
