re: So, first time buying in a Walmart store in a while and it shows up in purchase history
Posted by WavinWilly on 4/18/24 at 8:47 am
It’s the same credit card and it’s one of the primary reasons Walmart doesn’t want to allow Apple Pay. Because of the tokenization they can’t build a profile on you based on credit card number. Which then means they can’t target you based on that profile as well as sell your information to data brok...

re: Does “American made” resonate with you when making purchases?
Posted by WavinWilly on 3/23/24 at 5:48 pm
Ever since covid, it resonates more, but I try to do research into not only is it truly made in America (not just assembled with global parts - looking at you dewalt) but also who owns the company.
ETA: I think I’m really more anti made in china than anything. ...

I don’t know that it’s the case here but I resent the fact that the US population generally pays the inflated costs to cover R&D while the rest of the world pays significantly less. Spread the load. ...

re: ATT vs Verizon Which one is better?
Posted by WavinWilly on 3/1/24 at 6:22 am
Honestly TMobile has been great for me coming from ATT.
I have dual sims, work gives me a Verizon line, and I’ll switch to Verizon if I don’t have TMobile coverage. Lack of TMobile coverage is very rare for me now in SE Texas and SELA. I have an annoying deadspot by my house but all 3 carriers do...
re: How long will movie theaters survive?
Posted by WavinWilly on 2/28/24 at 6:24 am
Used to love going to the movies.
The biggest detractor for me is dealing with other people.
People on their cell phones, talking, fighting, bringing babies or kids to movies they should never be in, and otherwise acting in such a manner that it negatively impacts the whole experience.
If p...
re: Uh Oh... Some want New Orleans Public Schools to take back directly running schools
Posted by WavinWilly on 2/22/24 at 10:08 am
I'm not doubting you but is there data to show that the New Orleans public schools (charter schools) are the best they have been?
I've always been frustrated by the education system there and would love to see data showing things are improving. ...

I installed Avanan at my company (large enterprise) a few years ago. That would be my #1 recommendation and it’s not really close.
They got purchased by Checkpoint so they are now called CheckPoint Harmony Email Security but it’s the same product.
Painless install and you don’t have to change yo...

The claim amount submitted to your insurance is like whose line is it anyway - it’s made up and the dollars don’t matter. It’s what the negotiated reimbursement rate is that is the real “cost.”
Now if you want to have a discussion on why the whole song and dance is even necessary that’s a diff...

re: WTF happened to Megan Fox?
Posted by WavinWilly on 2/15/24 at 6:43 am
Women hit the wall and some in a desperate attempt to cling to their youth do stupid shite like this. If they just leaned into aging gracefully it would work out so much better. No amount of plastic surgery is going to make them look like they are still young enough to be in a sorority. ...
