Lovely little utility.

Shut up and take my money.

Although with the state of both Target’s near me, there’s often stuff out of stock.

• peroxide – come on. The last time Target didn’t have peroxide or rubbing alcohol was during the pandemic lockdown. What their excuse NOW?

• Hershey’s Almond Nuggets – OK. They’re popular. So if there’s only 1 bag left, you should maybe order more.

• t-shirts in my size – the men’s accessory clothing section was a disaster. I don’t know when the last time a sales associate tidied up, but there were underwear sizes all mixed up from different brands (Fruit of the Loom, Hanes, etc.) and quality. I had to buy what I wanted on-line.

It’s gotten so that I don’t trust either of my Target’s to have stuff I buy there on a regular basis.

I disabled History and only see my channel subscriptions. None of the options above appear in my Youtube feed.

I got hit by this AT&T usage cap for internet downloads. I went through 250GB of downloads in less than a month. Most of it was internet backups of a newly installed system. They don’t offer a data tier without a cap in my area so I was stuck paying $10/10GB over that month. Next month I added a $30 unlimited data charge to my bill. That’s OK as I’m consistently going over their cap again due to backups. Unless I buy much more expensive plan from a commercial provider and pay for Fibre installation, I’m stuck.

40 years ago at UCLA, I had to do my FORTRAN programs on punch cards submitted through the batch system. The CS/Math department (no CS department then), only offered 1 section in FORTRAN with 40 others in PASCAL. And it was taught by an Engineering professor. Why would a Chemistry major take a computer science class? Remember all those shiny machines CSI uses to do forensic analysis? They came from chem labs.
