I knew the worm in RFK's brain didn't die but secretly took control of his body. He's looking to catch humanity off guard for a major assault from flesh-eating screw worms.

Which is most of the population at this point. I think this will probably end up being a reminder of the old saying, "Don't count your chickens before they hatch."

Really, in the US it's more a reference for possible death or severe injury.

Meh, to be fair his uncle had an education and wasn't a narcissistic sociopath.

Easier said than done, I suffered a stroke so I can't feel my dominant right arm. Ever since I do most work left handed.

This is AI. My past Photoshop skills were laughable in comparison, lol.

After letting P. Diddy off, and now this... It feels like Trump, is forming a pedofiles version of the Avengers/Justice League.

Freezing my credit scores, heard there's 4, worth the trouble freezing them all? (literature.cafe)
 

Small rant: Perhaps I'm getting old and cynical, but the entire process through their sites feels a lil sketchy lol

Sure, it requires the basics, along with your SSN and cellphone to receive a text confirmation. Can't just be me, right?

Anyways, thanks for answering my crazy questions due to my lack of faith in the safety of the internet in the days of SEO's. 🤣

Would be moving from Mullvad, would appreciate opinions on the current landscape of VPN’s from those who keep a better eye out. TIA.

Excuse the old man question, but if I buy an iPhone 16 Pro Max outright, with no carrier. I can set it up with my current carrier easily? (literature.cafe)
 

Buying one through Apple online at the moment, but it’s roughly $1300 with taxes. So I have myself a little nervous at the cost. Thanks in advance for answering. 👍

Can anyone suggest/comment on any deals for cellphone plans or thoughts on T-Mobiles cost? (literature.cafe)
 

I know it’s a broad question, but I currently have T-Mobile and the price is alright but I have an iPhone 11 and looking to get a 16 Pro Max for myself and a 16 Pro. But, T-Mobile has mentioned it will mean an increase in my plan from $89 a month, for my current 2 iPhone 11’s and 2 Apple watches, to $180 monthly for 5G.

But, I’m getting older, so less deal savvy, not to mention aware of all the current cellphone carriers or what’s a deal these days… I would appreciate if anyone here could share their thoughts or recommendations on the matter. Seeing in the past, theres a large pool of wisdom hidden in here. TIA.

Need help looking for a camera for baseball games. Between all the features these days it’s hard to know what’s unnecessary? (literature.cafe)
 

I see there’s 5k cameras, but it feels superfluous since mostly everything is 4K. Plus, unsure what device would be suggested for an amateur taking pictures and sometimes video of my nephews baseball games. He’s pitching if that has anything to do with the megapixels for videos and hoping to keep the price around $100-$150?
