Welcome / open talk

Unfortunately, there are only a dozen states that have deregulated the power companies operating within their borders. The list is available here:

For those who have the ability, and do shop for the best rates, what has been your experience?

So why worry, pull an Alfred E Neuman?

I feel that sometimes the nature of society is to protect itself, so assume you've done something wrong, and prove you have not.

Examples.

Well, just today, I checked in at Yelp and a 15% discount popped up. Showed it to the waitress and she said no problem.

Another password manager perhaps in trouble. See https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/nortonlifeloc...

HI, am posting this as my input for downloading the poi files for Red light cameras and speed cameras. When I click on keeping the windmill alive all I get is a small box with no place to input my comments. Am I doing something wrong? I have looked around where to post other than here with no luck. I have emailed support with no responses. Or am I just stupid???
Regards

about your new cell#, it is an amazing process!

I have 3 401k's, and was locked out of 2/3 because they all wanted to do 2-factor authentication via text to the old cell.

The current 401k believe it or not I had not setup my online access, but thought I had. The reason is emails were going to my personal email mentioning 2-factor. My employer switched effective 1/1/22.

Anyone have practical experience with advanced driving assistance systems in cars other than Tesla?

Specifically wondering about the ones that can operate in heavy traffic. Does it work well? Stop and go traffic can be brutal.

I am a fan of an app called “what3words” that generates 3 unique words for every 10 ft x 10 ft square plot of land in the world. It is used by many emergency service organizations in Canada and the US.

Instead of having to give a gps location such as -80.451506,43.416168 you give "windows.prop.remove" to the emergency service.

My wife and I received our 2022 Social Security 1099s today. That was quick!

I love Popeye’s extra Spicy hot Chicken!
Unfortuneately, since retirement from Chicago to Waynesville, NC in 2015, Popeye’s has been out of my grasp …. We did do it once in Asheville, but they screwed up the order that day, 30 miles away, and when we opened ip bag, we had wrong order!

In theory the concept appear sound, but we all know it will be abused.

Perhaps you can post on a new book you're reading, a new hobby you're taking up or about random finds as you finally get around to cleaning out the..., or your most recent adventure?

Anything to keep your windmill alive.

Please keep comments polite.

This is the official POI Factory Joke thread.

Please read all the forum rules before posting, and keep in mind...

"POI Factory is not a forum for politically charged debate.
Let's avoid topics that already have a long list of Democrat or Republican talking points or that name specific politicians."

This thread will be closed on the last day of the month and a new one will be opened.

There are times when I have to sign in again, unless I do l cannot even open the forum.

How then is it that in “Who’s online” it will show x number of users and it says currently 43 guests?

At least at present, navigation to the moon is primarily an effort controlled from the ground, but this may soon change and as a "GPS" system is put in place.
