It seems that Apple is somewhat notorious for vastly overstating and overcharging their customers once they've purchased Apple products and they malfunction.

This is a video detailing what many of us have thought for some time.

I like it when things get smaller, this is quite a serious little PC, faster than an entry level PC but fits the the palm of your hand.

QuoteAsus unveils a NUC competitor with AMD Ryzen and Radeon hardware inside

Well, friends and readers, perhaps this should be Lack of Technology!!

Yesterday, I went online to get an item for our daughter and her family (kids).

I went to a popular online store and found the perfect item! The store's computer system asked me to make a choice between having Free Delivery to my home or Pick Up at the Store.

I opted for the TWO DAY FREE DELIVERY!

It asked for the required information, Name, Address, City, State, Zip Code, How many I wanted and my credit card number, expiration and security code, etc.
I provided the necessary information and pressed SUBMIT.

It "thought" for a few moments then in large font indicated, "Sorry but that item is not available for delivery! Perhaps you'd like to Pick it up in our local store!"

I thought well hell...just a picnic here today isn't it?!

OK...Fine...I'm only a 40 mile round trip so it's a nice day and I've got time. Besides, I can get it today and not wait for the post/UPS to deliver.

So I change my selection to PICK UP in STORE!

Their computer decides that since I changed my initial selection that I must be a new customer and it presented me with another blank form to be filled in with Name, address, card #, blah...blah...all over again!

After finishing I checked everything over and pressed the SUBMIT button once more.

Again, it processed for a few moments and flashed on the screen, " Sorry, but that item is not available for In-Store Pick Up! Perhaps you can find another item in our store!"

Perhaps I could own a TANK and make a drive-through lane into your worthless store!!! Grrrrrhh!!!

I finally called the store and spoke to a poor representative who really shouldn't have been on the receiving end but she seemed like a nice young gal so I let her off the hook, but when she put her manager on the phone, I explained to him in no uncertain terms that I was Frustrated to a the least!

Of course, he apologized saying that their computer system had been experiencing a glitch now and then. I replied more to the point and said, NO, Your Computer System SUCKS!! I want ALL of my previously entered information, Name, address, email, credit card, etc., etc. completely removed from your SYSTEM!! I do NOT wish to be getting emails of any kind as a result of this System Glitch!

I ended up driving there to meet with the manager in person. He had already found me a comparable item and let me have it for the same cost along with a profuse apology and assured me that the information had been deleted as soon as I found the very tiny print to 'remove' item from shopping cart.

Proud of not giving in to a stupid system program and being able to reason things out with a real human was kind of refreshing. I don't even think he saw me smiling with victory as I left the store! Yeah...we still have to wear those masks...so...

Our daughter's birthday will be fine...now...

12 Games that look Insane...

Electric car owners know how good their cars are and how much money they save while polluting the planet far less than an ICE car.

Are electric cars perfect ? of course not but closer to perfection than ICE.

However there are still many people and sources out there that refuse to believe and attempt to prove otherwise whenever they can, often this is done with misinformation and misdirection or just simply not giving "ALL" the facts.

Here is a typical example of what I mean, the video is named "Why Tesla batteries SUCK!!"

Thousands of Tesla owners would disagree with this but the "scientist" does his best to misguide us and blind us with his knowledge.

It's a classic, enjoy
