@AppleSupport I think Pluto[.]tv is blocking Apple hide my email addresses now. I can't log in with an account I created in March. "Please enter a valid email address."

@SGgrc To correct my previous message, I see SpinRite 6.1 has the temperature visible on the S.M.A.R.T screen. Great!

@SGgrc SpinRite 6.1 is working on a problem drive for me right now. Windows reported a "Drive Error" and gave up. SpinRite told me that the drive was too hot, so I knew to aim a fan at it. Nice touch, reporting the temperature! Maybe the temp should be on a status screen in 7.0.

@SGgrc Another solution to the tracking-by-email-address problem is Apple's Hide My Email service. This generates unique email addresses in the icloud[.]com domain, which sites won't want to block. Anyone paying for iCloud storage is eligible for this.

@SGgrc Web sites can solve the Passkey portability problem by simply allowing a user to have more than one Passkey associated with an account. A user could add a passkey from Bitwarden, and another one from Apple, and a third from Microsoft.

Anyone photographing #gravestone (s) or any type of monument with inscriptions should know about this photographic technique. #Archaeology @graveyard_arch You're going to like it. https://t.co/ELuApHTZfl

@USATODAY If 20 million people lost 15 minutes of sleep to this, that’s 5 million hours, or $55 million at minimum wage. Big mistake.

Does @WESH realize they are blocking reception of their new ATSC 3.0 signal?? @AntennaManPA

@Lowes I am unable to checkout online since about 12:30 PM Sunday. Items are in my cart. Error message is: "Sorry, something unexpected went wrong on our end. Please return to cart to start over and try again. Do not worry — any items currently in your cart will be saved."

Your 15 seconds of fame begins when you are the subject of a #Jeopardy clue. It ends when none of the contestants have any idea who you are. Triple stumper.

Does anyone know what the *worst* possible starting word for #Wordle is? And how much worse is it than the best ones?

National Hurricane Center, can you please schedule all our hurricanes for November from now on? The weather is so much better. Thanks - Florida!@NHC_Atlantic

@Redshift42 The eclipse was cool, Mars was very bright, and I saw a meteor, an Iridium flare, and another satellite. Worthwhile.

You had ONE job, @Sling and just F*k Disney . ESPN and other channels dropped without warning.

[Jamie @LinkLayer]

@jenbach Where exactly did you sign up for ESPN for $14? Thanks.

@TeamYouTube The link to Facebook is in the video description. I think maybe only the link was removed, not the entire video: https://t.co/LRlO1mOKu5

[Jamie @LinkLayer]

@YouTube (Google) removed my 5-year-old video because it contains
"..an external link [which] goes to a site that contains spam, scams, and other deceptive practices..." The offending link is to https://t.co/dlrDKjA24o . I guess I agree. @Facebook @leolaporte @BleepinComputer

Hurricane Ian damage here near east coast of central Florida. If you��ve been watching the news, it’s not all bad.

What kind of word is that today?? Not even in the (New Oxford American) dictionary.
