I GOT SOMETHING FREE - KIND OF

I just got a free Google Nest Mini for being a member of YouTube Premium. I took advantage of it even though I have no desire to have a smart speaker thing. Maybe I can trade it for a bottle of whisky? Actually since it's free I'll use it. Not like I'd go out of my way to spend this kind of money on something that will be listening to me all day LOL. Not really free though is it? I kind of sent them $12 a month for almost a year.

Shady AF Web Pages

So I was looking at Google One. It's actually a great deal but I'm happy with my cloud, so I wanted to see if I could get just a VPN and if it would be a total of the same or less money. I searched "Best Canadian VPN". The second link took me to a nice looking list of the top ten. Well I clicked the link to go to the site on one I liked the description of, then all the sudden crap stated to pop up in my task bar over on the right. They would pop up then go away. I clicked the show hidden button and there it was 4 app icons I did NOT want or manually install. "Safer Web", "Rav Endpoint Security", "VPN by Rav", and one I forgot to write the name down of, so I forget it. The shady bastards had installed unwanted crap on my system. It did not set off my security, and when I googled them, it said they where not harmful, just annoying. I uninstalled them and cleaned off every trace of their existence. Then did a deep scan, it found nothing. The

3 Quick Things

Image
My cat has been on the fridge for years now and won't come down. My heal was badly cracked and painful. Petroleum jelly fixed it right up in a short time. There is just a bit of the callous left on it, and I'm hoping it comes off eventually. Rexall has this service where just before you run out of meds, you get a text to come and get more. Well, it has not worked for me the last while as you see. First off, I got 2 orders in 2 weeks, then I got this third one in 20 days after the last one So now I have 2.5 months of pills on the shelf. I canceled my auto refill service and am just going to call them from now on. I told them twice already it was giving me them too early, and nothing was fixed, so I'll just do it the old way from now on.

Samsung A53 Weirdness

Image
OK two strange things. One there is always this hidden file you can't see on the phone but it you port it to the PC, you can see it. It is 0 bytes and is there every time I make a video on my Samsung A53. The other thing is, it updated one day and then for some unknown reason, I can no longer copy photos or videos off of it to the PC with file manager. It keeps telling me "the file is in use". Well, no it's not, the camera is off and literally nothing show be using the dang files. Ya know, sometimes "improvements" don't improve things much.

Coffee and Pills

Image
Two things that need to happen every morning are coffee and pills. To be honest the amount coffee wakes me up is minimal at best, but I do very much enjoy drinking the stuff. I remember when I first started drinking coffee and friends said, "you have to get used to the taste". They said the same about beer. I loved both from the first sip. I spend more on coffee that most people I'd say, and it is worth it to me, as the better the coffee the better the taste obviously. Three sets of pills, one is supplementing the doctor told me to take, and the other two are morning and night pills to keep me alive and not all depressed. I used to take a few more, but thankfully I was able to get off them and reduce the number of meds I need.
