Cosentino silestone ethereal glow

Hi all. I ordered Cosentino ethereal glow for my kitchen remodel to go with my Kraftsmaid warm white cabinets. I ordered it from Lowe's and I can still get a full refund up until the installation date, which I haven't scheduled yet. I made the order because they were running a 35 + 10 + 5 discount and I can always cancel.

I don't know much about countertops at all and was wondering if they're good?

I can't really find reviews about them except for the 7 on lowes: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Silestone-Ethereal-Glow-Polished-Quartz-White-Kitchen-Countertop-SAMPLE-4-in-x-6-in/5014427769

Also, I'm not married to this style or quartz, and would appreciate advice on if there are better options :)

How is xfinity's equipment?

I've been using my own modem and router on a 400mbps plan. I recently just upgraded to the 1GB plan and as part of the promo offer, they also provide equipment, which is a combined modem and router, i think, as opposed to separate ones. I'm wondering how good xfinity's equipment?

Note that my previous modem and router probably can't reach the full 1GB, and I'm struggling to get acceptable wifi in certain parts of my home -- I have an 100 year old house with plaster walls so this is expected, and idk if xfinity's equpiment will help with that. I'll probably need an extender and/or mesh network

Why is "Wild pacific salmon" so cheap at kroger?

Kroger has the frozen pack, with skin, of wild pacific salmon for $8.99 for 1.25 lbs. This is cheaper than any other salmon, frozen or not, that they sell, even the farmed ones, and any other store I've been to, including bulk stores like Costco.

Does anyone know why it's so cheap there? Is there something inferior about "pacific" salmon.

Child's youtube account showing hours of activity during sleeping hours

I've been noticing some strange activity on my 10 year old's youtube account, where he's either waking up in the middle of the night to watch youtube for hours, or someone else is accessing his account. It's possible both things are true here...

At first I suspected it was the former (I asked him about it and he denied it), but then a couple nights ago, I had him sleep in my room, and the following day, I still saw youtube activity on his account in the middle of the night, so now I'm not sure what's happening.

Looking at his youtube history, it looks like this has been going on since mid march. it doesn't happen every night, but at least a few times a week (ballpark).

Does anyone know what could be going on?

Perhaps he accidentally signed up for something where his account is being used to generate views for other creators?
