    UPS vs USPS

    USPS tracking is a pathetic joke. I've seen shipments not move for days upon days, and suddenly it shows in the state the delivery is in, and then on from there. I've recently had a couple of USPS horror stories and I'll summarize: Nearly THREE WEEKS for the package to arrive, and I saw it hit...

    Well, we all gotta go sometime.

    First off Steve, thanks for sharing this with your forum family. Out of everything posted, "get another/additional opinions" is the consensus and I am pointing it out here to strongly agree. I have definitely known the benefits of having medical care and treatment by a recognized doctor in a...

    Well, we all gotta go sometime.

    I wasn't aware of that my friend. We have to talk more.

    Quite a collection

    Now that I'm long past my teen years (in the mid to late 70s) outlook of "MOPAR RULES! everything else SUCKS" those are a couple of my absolute favorite GM cars. The SD 455 was basically only lacking a better CR, IIRC it was in that typical 8:1 range of the era. I'm guessing doing whatever is...

    :bananadance::monkeyleft::rofl::luvplace: Of course no disrespect intended, I LMAO because I've never heard that analogy and talk about "making a point" in a unique, clever way!

    When Is Your First Day To Mow The Lawn?

    Just add crawfish "towers" and that's a close example of the "stuff" growing in the 1½" of topsoil, over a foot of clay... When the H2 Hummer sporting original model but new BF Goodrich H2-specific tires got STUCK in my "damp" yard, the clay content really made itself known.

    When Is Your First Day To Mow The Lawn?

    Yeah, in my clay heavy swamp, I have to time my grass cutting to sync with the end of the brutal heat, but before the typical summer thunderstorms, after the humidity dries, before the 90+°heat and 98% humidity settles in. You can tell how much I enjoy it.

    When Is Your First Day To Mow The Lawn?

    Last Friday and Saturday. I'm not looking forward to another season of grass cutting. It makes me think of my physical mortality, knowing those who came before me who did this, and it still must be done, and when I'm gone, someone else will have to do it.

    PayPal Friends and Family

    Zero chance, 100% correct. I immediately contacted my bank, since that's how I funded the F&F payment to the SCAM "ammo sales" company and I was S.O.L.

    PayPal Friends and Family

    As in model airplanes? In the mid to late 70s, I joined the New Orleans East Flying Club (NOEFC) but soon got focused on the 1/8th or 1/12th? car racing deal and did that for a while. At the time, a .18 to .21 cu in engine was the limit. They burned methanol, common fuel in Cox plastic model...

    I have sent and received money via F&F and there's absolutely zero fee.

    PayPal Friends and Family

    Yeah, when I saw an ammo website and the prices seemed a little too good. Unfortunately I didn't do a "scam search" until just after I sent the funds, Friends & Family payment only, no credit cards, etc should have been enough red flags, but the "reason" was their low prices cut margins and...

    Another Ai thread (Artificial Intelligence) practical applications in "regular folks" lives

    Thank you for the detailed explanation. In one of the Grok 3 tutorial videos I did see Grok 3 being used on a desktop PC and it had a table (list) to the right of the main text/dashboard area of "Saved Topics" (or Conversations, IDR) which is better than what I've been having to do on my Android...

    Another Ai thread (Artificial Intelligence) practical applications in "regular folks" lives

    I'm not clear on this part of your post: "I can vaguely ask it about a project idea I had months ago, and it will bring it back up." In the case of Grok, if I have closed the communication thread and the web page it was in, and I DID NOT save the progress in the form of a link Grok generates at...

    I had to ask for a condensed answer twice, I guess my "Walls of Text" are influencing Grok 3, but here's the answer:

    Another Ai thread (Artificial Intelligence) practical applications in "regular folks" lives

    That's a broad area I struggle with. Anything involving "high finance". From what little I know, Grok and its follow up improved versions kick *** as Ai goes. I'll leave you with 2 things: Grok 3 answered an important question far better and more accurately than ChatGPT AND It's tied to XAi...

    Another Ai thread (Artificial Intelligence) practical applications in "regular folks" lives

    Lol... What can I say but less? I'll try and improve my writing style, and Grok already helped me cut the word count on a critical email to a COO who was kind enough to invite me to send it so he could refer me to others in that state hospital system. BUT Even the massive computing power of Ai...

    Another Ai thread (Artificial Intelligence) practical applications in "regular folks" lives

    Some time today I'm going to watch at least 1 or more YT videos about using Grok 3, mainly to understand the "dashboard buttons" and to see what options, if any, other than the one I'm already aware of, (saving a link to conversation thread developed thus far) that allows Grok to "know" what's...

    Another Ai thread (Artificial Intelligence) practical applications in "regular folks" lives

    My latest significant task Grok assisted with was drafting an email that a COO I met with at a hospital I've worked at for 8+ years is going to forward to other COOs for other locations. In other words he's giving me a referral. This could add $40 to $50k to my schedule each year. In the end...
