RE: Send photo issue ??
the main difference between win 10 update and ransom ware is that they know how to fix ransom ware.

RE: New Source of TV While on the Road
Using Sling for $25 a month instead of what dish charges you, and I got a free TV dongle for signing up for 2 months.So for that $25 you get all the same channels as a Dish package? And locals? How about the DVR? How much is your unlimited data plan? I don't think you are comparing apples to apples. :)
I "assume" this works the same as my roku where I can get showtime/hbo/etc thru it but only if I have a subscription to hbo etc.

RE: Prescriptions while on the road?
How do you guys handle getting prescriptions on the road?
Find a local doctor or try and do it all through the mail?
It came be a bit aggravating walking around in Walmart for an hour waiting for a prescription to be filled, BUT...
.
I used to use walmart for Rxs until one day my Dr faxed? a RX to them, then I drove to the WM and was told it would be 2 hours. I then switched to Sam's club and get prompt service there. the walmart pharmacy is like a zoo, too many patients, too few pharmacists.

RE: Prescriptions while on the road?
I never travel for more than 2 weeks at a time but ran into an issue where my script ran out while I was away. Insurance rules wouldn't allow them to refill more than a few days before my current supply ran out. CVS is our main pharmacy so we had it filled at the nearest one. Our insurance is CVS Caremark and they encourage 90 day refills as it's actually less costly overall to do so. Less paperwork, less bottles to fill, etc.
at Sam's club pharmacy, when I need a RX when I will be on the road, they request a vacation exemption or some such from Aetna so they can refill early. would work great if trips are only 2 weeks.

RE: Prescriptions while on the road?
When it comes to prescriptions, I do use Canadian Pharmacy . It has fast delivery and really decent quality products
do they ship the drugs directly from the pharmacy in Canada or is this one of those firms that have a Canadian address but the drugs get mailed to you directly from overseas with a questionable 'background"?

RE: Is dash cam evidence allowed in an investigation
I reformat my SD card daily. sorry about that.
bumpy
If you have that as an established protocol and can prove you do it regularly...that can hold up...if you can reasonably claim you didn't know it was likely to be evidence in a case.
Used to work for a state DOT and they didn't want to get caught up in every fender bender with requests for video, so they had a protocol for deleting video...of course the operators in charge of the deletion didn't watch it, so unless something big happened and they were specifically requested to save the video, they could reasonably claim they had no knowledge and were following protocol.
Of course, as an individual, if you do it after there is obvious evidence subject to a trial, you will still be found to have tampered with evidence.
my camera periodically notifies me that it should be reformatted. just following instructions. put a small SD card in to rush things.
reminds me of years back, one fella at work was warned to not have lunch with a specific person/firm. seems he did schedule a meeting and recorded it on his desk calendar. when they started checking this out, he ripped out the page and threw it away. they did the old rubbing a pencil lead across the next page and sure enough the appointment was visible. :)

RE: Is dash cam evidence allowed in an investigation
if you're at fault destroy the video
I guess you don't realize that would be a crime in itself of destroying evidence.
what evidence. the camera was not hooked up at the time, the SD card failed, etc.

RE: Prescriptions while on the road?
We prefer Walgreens over Walmart. Easier ingress/egress, nicer employees.
Also United Healthcares preferred supplier.that depends on the specific pharmacy.

RE: Generator in Class C Rental
Well, here's my opinion.
Assuming the price of gasoline is $2.50 a gallon (US), and the on-board generator uses 1 gallon an hour, for the $225, you can run the on-board generator for 90 hours. That means over a 14 day period, you can run the generator for 6.42 hours each day and will cost you $225.
If you rent, you have to pay the $225 for the generator and then still pay fuel. If the price of gasoline is $2.50 a gallon and the generator burns 1 gallon every 4 hours, to run the rental generator for the first 90 hours, it will cost you $56.25 for fuel and $225 for the rental for a total of $281.25
If it were me, I'd just use the on-board generator and have nothing else to worry about.
yep, and where and how are you going to transport this generator/and extra gasoline.

RE: diesel class c
Everyone seems to like the fuel economy and perhaps quietness (depends on what models one is comparing) of a diesel but what about the initial cost? Every diesel based Class C (eg. Winnebago View or Fuse) is $30 to $40 thousand more than a comparable Ford E350/E450 based motorhome. You can certainly buy a lot of gas for that price difference. Not everyone wants to pay over $100,000 for a motorhome. That's why Ford still sells many thousands of the E350/E450 cutaway chassis to the RV industry each year.
AND, as soon as you mention Mercedes Benz in a parts store or repair shop their eyes light up.
Been there, done that with MB autos.Loved my 300D though
.
My thoughts point mainly to this. If you need service as you venture across the fruited plain, your chances of getting a Ford V-10 repaired and down the road far exceeds your chances of having your MB repaired.
For the sake of fuel consumption and the initial cost, do the math. Love my Duramax in my pick up though.
AND be sure and be putting some fuel lubricity additives in your tank if you are using Diesel. With the sulphur content being lowered and now the added DEF fluid, injectors are not lasting as long as they once were. My local small diesel engine man in town has lots of trucks waiting for such items. On the Duramax ,it's 3K for 8 new injectors.
and remember if that $30/40 K is being financed, the cost is really more like $40-50K.
