It’s about as dangerous as using IE in the old days, or Edge in administrator mode.

That’s a cell phone!

Yes, and it’s trivial to retask with the AC97 HD Audio program in Windows, but I couldn’t find an equivalent program for Linux.

Thanks, I’ll give it a shot.

I do use Linux, and I’m usually glad about it, but I wasted an hour last night trying to figure out how to change my microphone port to a subwoofer port, and never did solve the problem. Linux is awesome, but sometimes basic stuff is ridiculously difficult or impossible.

I haven’t opened any Christmas presents yet. We’re having a late Christmas due to crazy schedules for everyone involved.

Nah, he threw it on the ground. DUH!

I don’t think you need the “what if” parts

Yeah, the ants. Maybe they just followed a scent trail into your house and live far away. If that’s the case then it’ll be easy. A couple of addresses ago we had a fire ant colony living under our foundation. Nothing we did got rid of them. Even powerful poisons that they take back to the colony only worked for a week or two until the next round hatched and they were right back. It sucked! Best of luck! Hopefully they live far away.

Oh boy, you’re about to learn a lesson in humility and perseverance.

?? Nutrition labels have been on food my entire life, and I’m almost 50. Has something about them changed in the last 30 years?

It’s $5-$10 per month, not $10 per hour. LOL

$10 gets you unlimited searches now. Idk about you, but I was continually frustrated with the results from all of the other search engines. I figured $10 is a small cost for my sanity, and privacy.

Kagi. Nothing else even comes close. Kagi is what Google used to be, before they decided they’ll show you whatever is profitable, rather than what they know you’re looking for.
