They tried a similar one on me once. Sent a email saying my boss (by name) sent me a virtual gift card. I immediately knew it was one of their "phishing tests" as my boss is a giant douche who would rather take the time to throw me under a bus than do anything that nice.

I believe I heard somewhere this was started by a bird strike.

And not to defend Boeing, but they don't make the engines. The engine is a CFM56 made by CFM International. The same engines are used on some Airbus a320s, Airbus a340s, and McDonald Douglas DC-8's

Likely this. I have to use my bose headphones wired into the controller, meanwhile, I can just pair the same headphones with my Nintendo switch without issue.

To be fair, I watched their yt video and then ordered the funko badgey (not through their link though, but through a local company).

Not only USPS. I got one today from "Canada posts" from a UK number. (I'm in Canada btw).

From what I understand the people behind that debacle no longer work for nbc

Maybe if they did not pull it from the service I am paying for in order to try and make me pay for yet another service this would not be a problem. But, no, corporate greed dictates that I must pay for 100 different streaming platforms to watch the one show on each one.

I am sick of this...

I had the same problem with my 6p back in the day, but a battery swap fixed that problem.

Can't comment for iOS but I use Podcast Addict for android.

I also use bitwardwn (paid). I used to use LastPass but left when they pulled that stunt a few years ago with their free tier where it is only mobile or desktop not both, and wanted too much for the feature, so I switched and haven't looked back.

Now most of my passwords are randomly generated and a pain to type on devices like my google tv but I'll take the tradeoff for more security
