Hah! I just recently got to switch off Comcast to a newer local fiber company. Comcast emailed and texted me for weeks telling me to return their equipment that I never had, but even their website showed I had nothing to return so I ignored it. Eventually the emails changed to "you've been charged", so I called to complain. They assured me that I wasn't actually charged, and then realized they owed me a prorated refund since I cancelled in the middle of a billing cycle. They absolutely weren't going to give that back unless I called.

I just set my domain email up with Zoho. Was easy enough and they have a free option. Although I pay $1.25/mo per user for two users, just to get a little extra storage space and be able to use SMTP and ActiveSync to send email from my servers for notifications and use a different mobile app than their default one.

Yeah I'm with you. Just say ACAB. No sense in obscuring it further than the acronym already does.

Another place that's got good deals is https://nationalofficeinteriors.com . Learned about this place at an old job. They sell used stuff that's pretty much new but has like one little stain or scuff on it or something, so places making bulk purchases refuse it. Just doing a search for the Steelcase Leap (which I also highly recommend), they've got a bunch for like 50-70% off full price right now.

I think they don't take your phone, just scan it. I don't know how it works with this, but I have a trial for my state's digital ID app (the app works but isn't fully implemented as a complete replacement for physical IDs yet), and it has two modes I can put it in which generates a QR code on the screen with my data. One mode for police to scan at traffic stops which has my driver's license info, and one just called "age verification" which can be presented when buying alcohol which just verifies that I'm over 21. I like the privacy of the second mode, since there's no reason a liquor store needs to be able to see my home address.

Mine's "Abraham Linksys"

A great puzzle game with terminals often found in woods or other outdoors locations. Like so:

I thought the same, but it only took me like 2 days to get used to it.

It is now. Dream Theater, "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence" at 42:00 is a good one.

Haven't seen anyone mention it in here yet, but this is exactly why I use Aurora Store to search for and download apps instead of the Play Store. It still installs things so the Play Store can update it automatically if you want, but you don't have to deal with any ads.

If they're using a service to send the emails, like SendGrid or Mailchimp or something, that Unsubscribe survey is actually hosted by the email sending provider, and the more people that mark the email as spam or use the "I never signed up for this" option or similar, the worse it makes the user of the mail sending service look. If they used Sendgrid for example to send a mass email to 10k people, if more than 5% Unsubscribe or mark as spam or use the "I never signed up for this", the company might get their account locked down by Sendgrid until there's an investigation as to why they sent spam.
