Nads razor https://www.manscaped.com/products/the-plow-manscaping?variant=32089503374 ?? Video is funny. Price is half other similar razors.

Since 99% of the apps I use, or wanted to fill out don't work in Dex, I'm wondering if using the phone in mirror mode on the monitor might be the solution. Then I can use the keyboard to fill out apps and send messages that really are much better done with a keyboard then the phone.

Two browser choices, Chrome and Samsungs. Niether is easy to scroll up or down, likewise youtube. Navigation in apps is not a strong point.

tried one of these: https://www.classicshaving.com/collections/replaceable-blade-straight-razors/products/fromm-replaceable-blade-razor-ss Couldn't replace the blades, cut myself a bunch, and gave up quick on it.

So far, the Dex pad works pretty well. Hooks up easily to a monitor, using the included HDMI cable. Operating system is nice. Sort of Chromish.. Can't play video full screen. It has a mode where you mirror the phone, but, it's tall and narrow on the monitor. In that mode, you can play some...

Wifi antennas came in today. 3 Wifi 9dBi Dual Band Omni Directional Antenna 2.4Ghz/5Ghz with RP-SMA Male Connector For Wireless Wi-Fi Router and Network Devices These work. Tests before: 18mbps Tests after: 28-30 mbps. Enough to make using the VPN viable. NordVPN: 28-29 mbps.

Forgot to mention that the phone was 840, not 1000. Pretty much 160 off retail price, and 0 interest. Moving to Note 9 would increase payments by 25 percent, or more, plus fee.

Facing the same issue again. Tried a 30.00 USB wireless and was getting about 1-2 mbps. Barely worked. Access point is two: one is in a office building 238 feet NE the other is 330 feet in the same direction. Another SE that is 508 feet away. Both are xfinitywifi hotspots. First step was to...

It appears to have similar problems to running any operating system in a virtual box. So far, I can use an office app to make a document, but, I can only save it in a linux based format, and, can only read it or change it from the Linux app. Haven't been able to even save the document to...

Ordered the Dex pad. Should be here in 5 days. Have a Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse, and my second monitor has an extra HDMI port. Should be fun. Make it easier to fill out programs I can only now do on the phone.

It appears they might have actually made Linux useable on a Chromebook: https://www.computerworld.com/article/3314739/chrome-os/how-to-use-linux-apps-on-chrome-os.html giving it a shot now. Using Acer Chromebook, 15.6

I'd really like to hear what you think. I have a friend that needs a new phone. Note 9 looks like a better value all the time. Are you using Samsung Health, and using the heart rate monitor, blood oxygen, work out settings, etc? Just found it from youtube. Either wasn't installed, or I...

This is the Dex Pad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgAkH2jP2yUrl] This is the Note 9 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeozWvxBgYU&t=165s

It's pushed as one of the major, unique features of the phone. I was wondering if anyone had actual experience with it. The reviews I've been over mention it, but I haven't found anyone that actually did it. I could see using the Bluetooth on the phone to hook up my Logitech keyboard, complete...

Kind of wonder if anyone has hooked up the Note 9 to a monitor, and used it that way, as a keyboard and mouse.... If I had a choice, I would go with the Note 9, but, when I needed it, the s9 Plus was the best available...

Stops raining, and now we have a freeze warning for tonight...

https://aqicn.org/map/california/ We were at 296 in Oakland in the peak of the smoke. 150 is very dangerous.

Bought the s9 Plus. Like the larger screen, but would rather have had the Notes 6.3" Same as the Samsung Mega everyone used to make fun of. I use Package Disabler Pro, along with using developers mode to speed it up a bit, and disable the Bixby bloatware, etc. I bought it for the speed, 6 gigs...

Due to the high growth rates in the trees last year, coupled with a long drought that has put trees root systems at risk, you have a lot of top heavy trees likely to fall onto power lines. PG&E probably is at fault for the start of this fire, and they probably came up with the name, since PG&E...

https://abcnews.go.com/US/body-cam-video-captures-deputy-thinks-final-moments/story?id=59504904 Most destructive fire in state history. At the same time, due to dry conditions, and tons of growth from the most rain in one year in recorded history, we had a number of other fires, one about 25...

Now we have really heavy rain. . Two feet deep on highway 580 just off the bridge tonight. Closed the right lane, unless 4wd or suv. Did not require snorkels, except your air intake better be on the high side.

DD: WHAT are you building?

For two weeks, we have had air so bad going outside was dangerous to your health. Consistently over 150 on the air quality health scale, with a high of 296 in our area, if you went outside, you started feeling sick, coughing, screwed up your lungs. Worst since 1965 in my experience, worst ever...

Happy Thanksgiving, or Turkey Day!

Also have this one: https://groomandstyle.com/art-of-shaving/best-philips-electric-shavers/norelco-sensotouch-3d-review/ Works well, cuts close, but not as close as Feathers and a double edge...

Mugen used to offer double sized batteries, with a new back, for a lot of models. Now a lot fewer. P.O.

Chrome browser, and Chrome on a Chromebook, both need an equalizer, third party, installed. Equalizer for Chrome is the extension I'm using, and it works. It makes the cheap Sony headphones useable, with more volume then stock limitations.

I ended up buying this shaver: https://shop.panasonic.com/personal-care/mens-shavers-and-grooming/mens-shavers/ES-RT51-S.html Very good shave, easy to clean, uses parts that have been around a long time. Waterproof as well. Did find out something interesting about plastic bodied shavers...

Both Best Buy and Fry's will price match. Fry's dropped the speakers down to best buys 269 from 299. Subwoofer cable from Best Buy was listed at 35 dollars. Price matched to Amazon for 20 dollars.

I was considering buying a new version of the Klipsch Pro Media 2.1's. They've been getting rave reviews for 20 years. The Bluetooth models use a dongle that is synced to only that set of speakers, and that's the only way to access them. Plug the USB dongle in, and they work. NOT what I had in...

Sennheisers came in. A considerable improvement from the Sony. Loud enough, and pretty well balanced. Sounds REALLY good with music using onboard sound and Media Player Classic or VLC. Movies are much better as well, though not perfect. Using a converter cable to get rid of the microphone...

DB: Thanks for the info. I bought the Verizon deal because it put me on their plan for work. They do have the best network in San Francisco, and that was where I was working. 1000.00 phone, for a small down, and 30 a month no interest? Kind of a no brainer. 9S plus has internal storage...

Thanks for the link. I just ordered Sennheiser Urbanite XL Over-Ear Headphones - Black Sold by: Amazon.com Services, Inc $69.95 I had a premium set of Sennheiser over ear headphones from 1975 until 1985. They got lost in the Hawaii move. Hoping the above will do the job for a reasonable...

I've got two pairs of the Motorola S305. I bought my first ones about 20 years ago, and the battery is amazing, still going strong. Covers fell off the ears, so bought another pair. GREAT value. Not overly loud, but adequate most of the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAnuk9rjZNM

Been wondering what the onboard sound of my computer is capable of driving. In other words, what is the point of wasting money on headphones when the sound quality off the motherboard onboard sound is too poor for the headphones to do much with? Just ordered these: Sennheiser Urbanite XL...

Went with Xfinity and their Verizon networked 45 dollar unlimited plan. Only problem is they limit the phones to .6 mbps when used as a hotspot. I get to watch a lot of stuff on my phone, instead of my TV. Still, for a bit down, and 30 a month, the Samsung 9s Plus is a great phone, and worked...

Thanks for the heads up.Looking for a larger screen, 17.3" , 1080p. Mainly used to stream video from Xfinity X1 DVR. Oddly, the laptop works, but the desktop doesn't on the wifi hotspot near this house. Might be the wifi capability on the desktop, or Xfinity might have blocked the desktop.

This is the model I ended up with, after going through 5 of them. Two USB C ports to charge through, not a POJ proprietary tiny bayonet, into a flimsy housing. https://www.cnet.com/products/acer-chromebook-15-2017/review/

Apparently uses a small form factor M2,with no active cooling. Tried to find an upgrade, but for the model I have, no joy. Resigned to staying with 32 gig, with the OS and stuff taking about half. Additional storage is on a 64 gig card, that I don't ever use, so I'm putting that back in my...

300. dollars for service every 5 years. Watch was in an estate. Guy never wore it. Wore a fake Rolex, when he had a real one. Almost perfect condition, but did replace the crown, with an original issue from Seiko.

Yes. Says SSD, not very well described in any documentation I've found...

Learning a Chromebook. Good stuff. Learned to disable the pad while typing with keystrokes. Learning more and more as I go.... Pretty amazing how fast this the Chromebook is with a SSD and an anemic processor.
