@EerieAutumn Same. Restarting my phone seems to have fixed it.

Appliance instruction manual warnings are keeping up with the times

😬Someone ordered a laptop for themselves using my Best Buy account with saved credit card info. Luckily (somehow) the order was automatically cancelled, but no idea how they got access. Account was a unique strong password, with TOTP 2FA. All my devices are confirmed clean.

@bdimcheff I've been using Shadow Weather as my Dark Sky replacement. It has dew point graphs. https://t.co/w6lK9S7sYG

@urbanstrata It's an application fee; you would still owe it even if you were denied

@cmdrtaco If you already have Coax wired through your house, look into MoCA. I've had great performance & stability with it

[Jeffrey Parker @jeffreyparker]

@bdimcheff And uses consistent variable naming...

[Jeffrey Parker @jeffreyparker]

@bdimcheff I believe that's Chrome warning you that the password you entered on a2gov has been found in online password dumps

[Jeffrey Parker @jeffreyparker]

Interesting, @GooglePay automatically updated the expiration date for one of my credit cards, but I haven't yet received the physical card in the mail yet so I don't know the CVV to use with it...

Beware, the @rpsa2 Maynard structure is completely full, but it's still letting more cars in. We all had to turn around at the top...

@CatchTheRide Thank you for that message link! I'll be sure to use that if I ever notice any future issues.

[Jeffrey Parker @jeffreyparker]

@CatchTheRide The route 25 was 37 min late for its 5:03 BTC stop (understandable given the mess on Main), but the track-a-bus website reported it as DUE around its scheduled time. Frustrating when I could've instead taken an alternate route had I known.

[Jeffrey Parker @jeffreyparker]

Figured it out @turbotax . If your ESPP purchase lots shares sold sum doesn't match the total (due to dividend reinvestment), TT lowers the selling price per share every time you revisit the module. Workaround is to manually subtract out div-reinvest shares and treat separately.

[Jeffrey Parker @jeffreyparker]

Wow, discovered a major bug in @turbotax ESPP handling which causes reported sale price to decrease every time the module is revisited. As much as I love having a magic "increase refund" button, this is making finishing my (accurate) taxes a real pain.

@Falkowski Great tip! And Amazon recently added the ability to directly fund your account, even easier than the 2-step buy/redeem.

@peterhoneyman @bdimcheff I successfully used these instructions to create a virtual token which supports TOTP. https://t.co/EFSG5eUEbc (Using the python-vipaccess method)

I've started practicing TDD by accident... "Why aren't my new unit tests passing!? Oh yeah, I forgot to implement the feature" 🤦‍♂️

@raymondcamden It's not a super recent change, but Chrome purposely ignores autocomplete="off" by design https://t.co/5HRR4hWv9E
