omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Free iOS app that is offering free 50 GB cloud storage for life if you sign up in next 30 days. Who couldn't use 50GB of storage on their iPad/iPhone?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How do you use cloud storage in iOS?

Our wings are not tired

I have a Box account for my business and I've been really happy with it.

Box has an iOS app that allows you to access everything and then open them in the right applications on the iOS device.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I grabbed that Box offer, but I'm annoyed that they don't allow folder synching under their free plan like Dropbox does. I know I shouldn't complain when it's free...

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I grabbed it, and then realized that I already have an account that I'd never even used, mostly because of the lack of syncing and (at the time I signed up, at least) all the clients I needed.

Oh, well. 50GB is 50GB, right?

You know how in browser scroll bars there are arrows on the top and bottom you can click with your mouse in case you don't want to use the slider to scroll? In my edition of Chrome those arrows have disappeared. I have to use the slider. Did I accidentally change a setting? Or has Google just decided that arrows are not cool, that only sliders are cool?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

tech support for an internet service I use sent all of us a pop-up message alerting us to new functionality.

I messaged them back saying "thank you! I've been waiting for this!"

They replied back with a thumbs up gif.

Efficient, I'll give them that.

It was google. Adding Rescroller solved it.

Our old fax machine died today. (To tell you how old it was, it was a thermal printer.) Our old color printer died about a year ago. Since I have some credit left on a gift cart at Amazon I'm thinking a combined Fax/color printer. (If it scans and copies great, but important to me). Wireless is a plus but my router does have a USB port it says is specifically for printers. I am trying to keep it in the $100 area. I neither receive faxes nor print in color all that often so cost per page is not a big concern. Print quality and speed are not priorities either as long as it is above awful. What I would like is something that will last as close to forever as possible. Years ago those specs would have mean't HP and then decide on model, but today, maybe there is something that will meet my needs in a Canon, Epson, or Brother or whatever. Any advice welcome.

So basically I want cheap and sturdy with wireless a plus but not absolutely needed. I don't care if they screw me on the cartridge, cause I don't expect to replace the cartridge that often. Speed and print quality are not prioties either, cause the main this will be used for is sending faxes, but I will take advantage of the color printing ability occasionally.
