cropped-favicon-180x180.png Amazon Devices Will Soon Be Sharing Your Internet Bandwidth With Your Neighbors. Here's How You Opt Out.

Yikes, I hate when things like this happen without people knowing... So, apparently, Amazon has a...


I’m no tech expert, but this sounds odd to me. I do not want to share my wifi with my neighbors. Moreover, couldn’t tech-savvy neighbors with access to my wifi also access my ring security system? Seems really wrong to me that this is an “opt out” thing instead of an “opt in” deal as well.

Any techies out there have any thoughts?

They've been doing it in Australia for ages with our biggest telephone network and it basically doesn't work. 

Every time you stop yoir car it tries to connect somewhere and it is so slow it just stops. Just switch it off.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Bob M ·

      Day 202 - Did Day 1 of the 30 day practice plan today. I am really trying to ingrain the feeling of beginning the swing with my palm and club face pointing down as I feel like my not consistently doing so is causing inconsistent shots.

      Of course, and losing means less money in the bank. I doubt he’s considering it to make him play better.

      Wow, that is some shoddy work. Measure twice, cut once.

      My Swing (phillyk)

      By phillyk ·

      Initially turning that foot in helped. But now my body is used to it and I’m back to squatting, EE’ing, leaning, etc. So, I’m working to get rid of the squat by throwing my hips “left” in transition (instead left and down) and have my left foot less outward pointing. The foot position is helping to prevent the late lean and extend my left leg sooner. The initial lean helps get my knees moving left instead of squatting out.  It’s small but you can see the bottom picture has less squat and more body turn. It’s not quite where I’d like to see it, but it’s a start.  I really need to grind into my swing’s bad habits. I’m really annoyed at my inconsistency.

      Shaft Replacement Help

      By Panic89 ·

      Thanks for the replies. I took it back to the shop and they agreed they did not trim the tips as they should have. They attempted to reshaft it using a new shaft. Unfortunately, this time they actually trimmed too much off the tip. The tip section on the 9iron is now shorter than my pitching wedge. Looks like the trimmed about 1.5 inches too much.   Sucks b/c you would think a golf shop would be able to do the job properly....
