  1. WHEN YOU FINALLY HAVE THE WHOLE COUCH TO YOURSELF 😸
  2. If, on the other hand, you are talking Canadian returns, unless you fully qualify as Non-Resident (in which case you can file up to June 30) you're not leaving yourself or a preparer much room.
  3. HHmmmmm....... might have been a question better asked before he made the move to Gerontology Central?
  4. Received from google in my gmail inbox today: "We’re writing to remind you that starting September 30, 2024, your Gmail, Contact and Calendar account will no longer support less secure apps, third-party apps or devices that ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password. It puts users at an additional risk since it requires sharing Google Account credentials with third-party apps and devices that can make it easier for bad actors to gain unauthorized access to your account............... After September 30th, 2024, any app that uses only your username and password will encounter authentication errors when it tries to access Google Account. Typically these look like “Invalid username or password” or “Unable to login” errors. 1. I sign in to gmail on desktop with user name and PW. Does this mean I am using an "app"? (Mozilla Firefox / private browsing) Web searches typically done with google. 2. When I turn my cell phone on, there's an icon where I can open gmail but that then happens automatically. Are they talking about this or ??? DO NOT do web searches from phone. The tech-dummy thanks you in advance.
  5. Are you asking about when the original Gigante store was opened, or when Soriana bought them out and took over?
  6. Yes I know. Search. Apparently I'm too stupid to word a search correctly because came up empty. So now have to ask for someone who deals mostly in dentures to rebuild / remake partial lower plate following an "accident" for non-member friend. One recommendation already received but is near Soriana. AJijic centro to AJijic west more convenient. If anyone can personally recommend Dental express for this, that works, but with Edgaard long gone don't know anything about them these days. Gracias
  7. And what, perchance, is a Mirage store?
  8. Me too, but haven't see that receptacle there in a while. And that doesn't take care of the light bulb question.
  9. Me too! Also..... I know energy-saving light bulbs contain something that should not go into regular trash, and I a whole bunch saved but no idea what to do with them.
  10. My info goes back to 2006, so I guess this rule, as well as many others worldwide, has changed. Would never do it anyway but......
  11. I ASSUME you are already a dual ( or more) citizen of one or more other countries. Before you make this leap, better check out the various current entry requirements to any country you may want to visit in the future. As an example, Canada recently changed this same for Mexicans entering Canada who prior, did not need a Visa. This happened overnight, causing a lot of trouble for some. As a dual ( Canadian--Mexican) it has long been the case that I leave and re-enter Mexico on Mexican PP, but if I dind't have a Canadian PP, I'd need a Visa to enter U.S...... which takes time, money, and a long lineup ahead.
  12. Heading says U.S.Attorney so i assume he means U.S. citizenship. Alvaro cannot help him with that
  13. OK.... to be absolutely CRYSTAL CLEAR. When I open my 2018 kindle, I agree.... it does show a title not in my list, and I guess "read now" means connect and buy? (NEVER do that) If that's the case I'm perfectly happy without ad-blocker option. Of course that suggests we're now into some reverse psychology by Amazon. "You're used to what you see, but now we're going to offer ad-blocker option because IF we get lucky, you'll think it's a new wrinkle you don't want....... ergo we'll make another $20" My current one is my 3rd, and I ZERO recollection of this option when purchasing prior. On the other hand, I can't remember a time when, after opening case cover, this didn't happen.
  14. Can you even do that? Canadians cannot even if they become citizens of another country..... like Mexico ( which we did).
  15. Nope. Yours, like my two previous ( had a different one before that) pre-dates this new wrinkle. Just checked Amazon.... "with or without" is now a required choice. As to how you download, sounds like a lot of complication for ??? If you put the kindle in wifi mode even with an iffy signal, books go direct from Amazon to kindle. You do, however, have to register the modem info in Settings..... one time only.
  16. THANK YOU. I could live with what you're describing Rick. My desktop ( FIrefox) is in private browsing so I never see ads tho' hubby gets them by the truckload on his laptop. If it isn't any worse than you describe I can accept not paying extra. Anyone else with a pro or con to offer?
  17. I have neither tablet or laptop, and wile i CAN read books at desktop it's not as comfy as my recliner! I ONLY "buy" free books on Amazon so we're equal there. I bought mine in 2018, but just before the warranty expired something went wrong and Amazon replaced it. That was Jan 202o BUT it was replaced with the original 2018 model. I think ad-blockers is something new .....to me for sure..... so it can SEEM like the price hasn't gone up that much, but in fact it's kind of like keeping price the same but reducing the container size of many things in grocery stores!
  18. 2018 model is giving up the ghost despite ALL best efforts with Amazon tech on line. Apparently it's "old" and is now "defected" (sic). Told him not nearly as old as I am and I still work! He LOL'd. Please..... only if you have personal experience........ buy with or without ad-blocker ? ( about $20 higher price to block). Google results give mixed opinions. This will be a 2024 Kindle Paperwhite if it matters. Also, I read several hours daily..... which affected many of the opinions mentioned. Gracias.
  19. For those who don't pay attention to a lot of Canadian news, be warned.... FLAIR is not all it might seem. Ferret assures me she has herself covered. For the rest you might want to look into them a little. Like the little girl with the curl...... when they're' good they can be a great deal, but when they're not ....................... No horse in this race because neither flight destination does me any good but doubt I'll ever see Canada again anyway.
