I realize this has been covered several times, but I’m not seeing my exact question.

So, I will be using 4 gallon frosting buckets. The flour is currently in the freezer, inside 2 zip lock bags.

Before putting it in the buckets, do I need to remove it from the plastic bags for a short period for any possible moisture to evaporate? The bags are currently sealed. If so, I would put each bag of flour into 2 new ziplocks. The ziplocks are fully closed.

I don’t have any moisture absorbers. Thoughts? It is bread flour and AP flour.

Where have you found it to be cheapest? I bought some through Amazon, but they weren’t the cheapest on all of it. One “deal” stated a 2 lb bag, instead of 5 lb, so you have to be careful.

The KA all purpose organic is particularly high. My local grocery has it for $9.49 for a 5 lb bag.

FYI, might be a good time to stock up. The wheat harvest is said to be the lowest since the 50s, and the US has far more people now.

Two I have found that could be fruitful and overlooked are Urbex and Abandoned.

Urbancarliving and Frugal sometimes have interesting tips. Oh, and StealthCamping.

Have any you care to mention?

NE GA area.

Which species of milkweed would do best in this area for Monarch butterflies with the least amount of care?

Is this a plant that I could drop the seed and they would grow on their own? If so, what would be their preferred environment? Best time of year to drop or plant the seed?

Advice? Specific company recommendations to bulk purchase seed?

Stop looking at your GD phone while driving. One of you just swerved into oncoming traffic and hit a biker head on.

Two passengers. Current condition unknown. 😡

Buying a used one. What is the easiest way to flush it? Can it - or even should it - be done prior to being installed?

Other than going ahead and replacing the anoide rods, what else would be a good idea to go ahead and do?

It’s a far more expensive model than I can afford new, a 50 gallon Bradford.

If you picked up a large box the past couple days that wasn’t yours, please be kind enough to return it. The contents are of no use to you and I need it.

Box picked up early morning, weighed around 8 1/2 pounds.

Go suck an egg - minimum. You’ll leave up posts that technically belong in Chattanoogans, but delete my KFC 1-53 post?

Regular thing with ya’ll. Some peoples posts get left up and others consistently taken down.

Trash.

No interest near Texarkana nor the northern area. Not flood zone.

I don’t care how far it is from civilization. More interested in a beautiful tract, not clear cut nor near a data center. Old growth forests are fabulous.

A place that allows you to stay in an RV or camp more than 45 days per year, preferably unlimited. In time I’d like to build. Obviously, no HOA.

Are there areas I should focus on?

Anyone have a recommendation for a cologne that smells like fresh cut hay or alfalfa? The scent is sweet, fresh and almost intoxicating.

Went there a while back and a sign in the window stated Closed For Remodeling. Google states permanently closed.

Which is it? Are they moving?

Court-Ordered Notice of Class Action

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Notice to Class Members who had Google “Web & App Activity” control or the “Supplemental Web & App Activity” sub-setting turned off or “paused” of Class Counsel’s Fee Application
Para una notificacion en Español, visitar www.GoogleWebAppActivityLawsuit.com.
A federal Court authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

What is this notice about? On September 3, 2025, after a federal trial, the jury concluded that Google unlawfully collected information from certain users of smartphones and tablets who claimed they asked Google not to track their activity on mobile apps. The jury awarded a verdict of over $425 million in damages to two certified Classes. The Court entered a judgment, which requires Google to pay the Classes the amount of the jury’s verdict plus interest. As of March 2, 2026, the verdict plus interest totals $440,345,685.40. Interest continues to accrue on that amount. However, Google has asked the Court to vacate the judgment, meaning disregard the jury verdict. Google may also appeal the judgment. There is no money available now, but Court rules require Class Counsel to make a formal request for their fees (their “Fee Application”), should compensation be awarded. This notice is to inform Class Members of the Fee Application and their opportunity to object to it.

What was the lawsuit about? Three Google account holders (“Plaintiffs”) filed a class action lawsuit alleging that Google LLC (“Google”) unlawfully accessed their devices and data, including app activity data on their mobile devices, even though the Google activity controls called Web & App Activity (“WAA”) and/or a sub-setting concerning “Chrome history and activity from sites, apps, and devices that use Google services,” sometimes called supplemental Web & App Activity (“sWAA”) were turned off or “paused.” Plaintiffs alleged Google unlawfully accessed their mobile devices to collect, save, and use the data concerning their activity on non-Google apps that have incorporated certain Google software code into the apps. Plaintiffs have three legal claims: 1) invasion of privacy; 2) intrusion upon seclusion (similar to invasion of privacy); and 3) violation of the Comprehensive Computer Data Access and Fraud Act (“CDAFA”). The jury ruled that Google is liable for invasion of privacy and intrusion upon seclusion, but not for violation of the CDAFA.

**You are receiving this Notice because Google's records indicate that you may be a Class Member.**You were previously sent notice of the Court’s certification of the Classes in this lawsuit in the fall of 2024. This Notice advises you of the jury verdict and judgment that were reached in the lawsuit, Class Counsel’s Fee Application, your rights and options at this time, and the deadline to exercise them.

Who is a Class Member? The Court certified two classes to assert claims for invasion of privacy and intrusion upon seclusion. These classes include the following individuals:
Class 1 (the Android Class): All “non-Enterprise” and “non-Unicorn” individuals who, during the period beginning July 1, 2016 and continuing through September 23, 2024, (a) had their “Web & App Activity” and/or “supplemental Web & App Activity” setting turned off and (b) whose activity on a non-Google-branded mobile app was still transmitted to Google, from (c) a mobile device running the Android operating system, because of the Firebase Software Development Kit (“SDK”) and/or the Google Mobile Ads SDK.

 
Class 2 (the Non-Android Class): All “non-Enterprise” and “non-Unicorn” individuals who, during the period beginning July 1, 2016 and continuing through September 23, 2024, (a) had their “Web & App Activity” and/or “supplemental Web & App Activity” setting turned off and (b) whose activity on a non-Google-branded mobile app was still transmitted to Google, from (c) a mobile device running a non-Android operating system, because of the Firebase SDK and/or Google Mobile Ads SDK.
“Enterprise individuals” refers to individuals who onlyhave an “Enterprise” Google Account. An “Enterprise” Google Account is an account managed by an administrator that is designed for end users within an organization, such as businesses, non-profits, and schools. Individuals who have an “Enterprise” Google Account are not part of the certified Classes that claimed invasion of privacy and intrusion upon seclusion unless they also have another Google Account.

“Unicorn individuals” refers to individuals who only have a “Unicorn” Google Account, which is also known as a “supervised Google Account for users under age 13.” A “supervised Google account for users under age 13” is an account created for a minor when they are under the age of 13, and which is created and supervised by a parent using Google Family Link. Individuals who have a “Unicorn” Google Account are not part of the certified Classes that claimed invasion of privacy and intrusion upon seclusion unless they also have another Google Account.

What was the verdict? The jury found Google liable to Class Members who use Android devices (“Class 1”) and to Class Members who use non-Android devices (“Class 2”) for invasion of privacy and intrusion upon seclusion. The jury awarded a total of $425,651,947, of which $247,154,157 is due to Class 1 (Android users) and $178,497,790 is due to Class 2 (non-Android users). These amounts will continue accruing interest as required by law. The jury found Google not liable for violation of the CDAFA. For more information about the verdict, you can visit the Case Website and read the jury’s verdict and related motions filed by both Google and the Plaintiffs.

Does the verdict mean money is available now? No money will be distributed at this time. While the jury did award a verdict, Google has asked the Court to vacate the judgment, meaning disregard the jury verdict. Google also may appeal. Class Counsel will continue to pursue the lawsuit against Google. If money or benefits become available at a later date, you will be notified and given instructions on how to make a claim.

What is a Fee Application? In a class action lawsuit like this, the Court decides the amount that Class Counsel will be paid for their work. When a jury awards compensation with a verdict in a class action, the Court requires that Class Counsel make a formal application for the fees Class Counsel believes it should be paid for their work in the lawsuit. Class Counsel must also request reimbursement for any costs and expenses incurred in bringing the lawsuit (such as the cost of expert witnesses and for providing notice to the Classes) and for service awards to the individual plaintiffs who represented class members and took part in the lawsuit. Individual Class Members are given an opportunity to review Class Counsel’s fee application and object to any part of it. The Court considers Class Counsel’s application and any objections, and the Court decides how much Class Counsel will be paid, how much they will be reimbursed, and what service awards will be granted to the class representatives.

What does the Fee Application Say? Class Counsel is requesting (1) attorneys’ fees equal to 33% of the judgment, including both the jury’s verdict award and interest, which continues to accrue until Google’s challenges to the judgment are resolved; (2) $12,422,374.42 to reimburse costs and expenses incurred by Class Counsel; and (3) a total of $135,000.00 for service awards for the three class representatives. Class Counsel’s Fee Application states their justification for each of these requests. The Court must approve the Fee Application and may award less than these amounts. You can review the Fee Application at the Case Website, www.GoogleWebAppActivityLawsuit.comby clicking here. These amounts will be paid from the compensation ultimately awarded in this case, if any. These amounts will not be paid until after the Court rules on Google’s request to disregard the jury verdict and, if Google also chooses to appeal, after the Court rules on that appeal. You do not have to pay for Class Counsel or any of their fees and costs.

Now - where and why?

I feel like I’ve really made a mistake.

The first section of floor tickets run A-E. I am going to be in section G, around row 34. A huge distance from the stage. Will the band be ant size. Will the music quality suffer?

Would it be difficult to go closer and occupy empty seats?

Also, can you just walk across Natchez or do you have to use a bridge or ….

I’ve been thinking about all this for days and I’m at the point now, I don’t even want to go. I bought during presale and thought that I was lucky to get tickets, but now I’m seeing them much closer and cheaper. Been trying to sell mine and I’ve been asking less than what I paid, for days.

Is Section G worth the hassle of going? Two hour drive, $200 car rental, $150 room, gas, food… Should I cut my losses and ditch it? I can’t afford a closer set of tickets.

Have you found a new hustle? There are tons of scams pushed as easy money. SC casinos actually worked.

Already know about surveys; SC spoiled me. Not interested in clicking for pennies.

Info?
