A fresh round of safety recalls is putting more than 83,000 vehicles from Ford Motor Company back under the spotlight in the United States. The automaker is ...
So, because I'm cheap, I buy clearance food at the local grocery store, sandwiches, salads, microwavable meals, the stuff you find up in the deli or prepared food area, freeze it, then defrost it when I'm ready. This stuff isn't expired, but it is sell by the day I get it.
Today's second lunch/first dinner was going to be chicken tenders, corn and mashed potatoes with gravy. Took the lid off as you have to remove it to microwave it, and…
The mashed potatoes are grey. Ummm, yeah, I think we'll skip that.

Ughh, might be time for a new phone. Yesterday my phone wouldn't charge… Actually that's not quite right, it will charge, but real slow and heats up. Maybe it was just a fluke, but wireless charging hasn't been working for the better part of a week. Prolly get the same one again, the 2026 G Power really doesn't offer much, dumping the flaky wireless charging and bumping the batter from 5000 to 5200, along with a couple new colours.
Thirteen months, not bad honestly, though that prolly doesn't sound great, but I do a gig version of UPS' work, 4 to 5 days, 6 to 10 hour days, breaking once or twice to hit the bathroom and grab a cup of coffee. There's no phone who's battery will last the whole day, so if'n I'm going from than 2 miles and have less than 90% battery, I usually plug in for a top off, which really isn't that much, but combined with end of day charging to full, I have a funny feeling I've done more charging cycles in those thirteen months than normal, at 2, maybe as much as 4 times as much. Kinda explains it dying so soon, right?
So why buy another? Because frankly its the best rugged phone bargain out there. Sure, Motorola at best claims its durable, not rugged, but with a mil spec drop rating and IP 68 and 69 water ratings? At $350 compared to $650 starting for a real rugged phone, its hard to beat, and I've certainly tested it, I've dropped it in the warehouse on a concrete floor, onto the street, fumbled and sent it flying, scanned and photographed packages with rain running off the phone, I've really put it to the test. Now that there's a 2026, looks like I can get one for $250 unlocked from Motorola (funny thing, the new prices haven't hit their Amazon store where the 2025 costs more than a 2026 right now), and I'll prolly keep the old as a back up.
