How timely on St. Patrick's Day. How about people's names that contain an apostrophe? I married O'Keefe. It is just so aggravating.

When I set up a contact, I change the ringtone for them. Then, I ignore calls from non-contacts, which are currently dominated by offers of help with my non-existent student loans (it used to be the warranty on my 20 year old car).

How do we think health workers and sanitation workers and police/fire and other vital workers should get to work? Not everyone has 24-hour public transportation available.

That app has great potential, but it's not really ready for prime time. Its rating in Google Play is 3.1 based on over 3,500 votes.
Today, they are apologizing for a problem wherein the app reported a 6.1 quake as being located somewhere in the United States, which is not very helpful.
Other reviewers have complained that the app is a power hog that drains a phone's battery pretty quickly.

I use a browser extension on Chrome called PixelBlock to (hopefully) kill those email tracking pixels. The extension displays a small icon on emails where blocking occurred.
This is the description supplied for the extension: "PixelBlock is a Gmail extension that blocks people from tracking when you open their emails."

Nobody has mentioned StartPage.com. I believe that uses Google Search in the background, while not sending your personal data or returning a bunch of advertising garbage.

So you have your paycheck direct-deposited, and you pay all your bills on this account, so Google now knows your income, your rent, your indebtedness, where you have all of your accouts (mortgage, auto loan, credit cards).

But wouldn't they just delay the process, appealing forever?

Apostrophed person here. This happens SO often.

SF is not at risk for grass fires and forest fires. It's a big city.

Another way the comment could backfire would be losing karma points here.

There's one in San Francisco on Thursday nights that's all comedy speakers. Boost your confidence and make some fun new friends.

We know that FB tracks us just as much as the people who have accounts. But we have less access and fewer rights.
