Not a purchase, but I just learned today that the remote desktop ribbon or whatever it's called at the top of the screen that you pin and unpin, can be moved to right or left of the screen. I've never used Remote Desktop until this pandemic. Drives me nuts when I've got multiple apps or browser tabs open and that Remote Desktop ribbon is in the way. I found out today you can slide it to the right or left so that it's out of the way. Made my day.

This is something that could be useful for some of you right now, and I can't recommend it enough. I have two of them, one for each car.

Snow Joe Telescoping Snow Broom with Ice Scraper (SJBLZD)

I used this today and it took the snow off my whole car in less than 10 minutes.

I have had it for more than 5 years and it has been working great.

Today I even pushed the snow on the ground with this snow broom.


Check the link, it is on sale at Staples.com with free shipping.

heavy fleece lined sweats, my gym is a 15 min walk from me and with it being winter, these are clutch in keeping warm, helping me warm up on the way there and keeping my muscles warm and limber after i'm done. walked in the snow/sleet yesterday and didn't feel a lick of cold

I actually just bought a fleece lined robe and, other than building up the worst static charge, that thing is the truth. I wasn't heating my whole apartment for a while and I couldn't even tell when I had that thing on.

Was just about to post. I got a propane grill now :hhh: and I ran out of propane. Wanted some chicken wings. If I don’t grill I bake but it takes about an hour. Threw them joints in the AF and 18 minutes later we eating good.

Bought this recently for gaming. For the moment I can't wire the PS4 to my router, and I'm not finna drill holes through the ceiling and wiring an ethernet cable through the attic and drill another hole to move the cable to the room where my PS4 is at. It's just not feasible right now. Before these device, my PS4 speeds would be 100mpbs down, and 7mpbs up, 32ms latency. I plugged this thing into an extension chord, and wired the PS4 to it, and the connection jumped to 325mpbs down, 11mbps up, still 32ms latency. I can tell the difference playing Call of Duty too.

That would come in handy :ohhh: Most of those scrapers are only half the size of that. Hmmm. Glad you posted this.
