Stop playing so coy with Sara. Tell her that it's not her, it's you and that it didn't mean anything; that you think it's best if you both just move on.

I was surprised companies of this size, readily trying to set up a "call"? They can really afford this?
I do get marketing mails from MS , Google but nobody looks to set up a call. Talking to a million user will need a call-center.
I started getting the mails from "Sara Janes" daily on different tones. It just tells that they are desperate & they go down to any low level marketing routes to get customers.
AWS marketing folks does this, but they did not employ Bots for the purpose. It was genuine.

Out of interest, has anyone ever replied to a message that uses the phrase "reach out?"
It's such a horrible and vacuous expression, it really makes me cringe.

They just reach out to touch base on the new account matter.
I dislike the latter, even more.

I can see how "touch base" is worse in a sense as it can be taken in all kinds of undesirable ways, but for me it translates to "don't take me seriously whatever you do" whilst "reach out" comes out as "I deserve to die for reasons that you cannot begin to count."

I've had people tell me "I'll ping you tomorrow..", oi! that was cringe worthy.

Been getting inundated with ads from wish.com, so I thought I would give them a chance. Ordered a 1.0TB micro SD ($6.00!) just to see what would happen. Took about two weeks (as advertised), and I put it in my test machine (no internet access and Windows 7 VM) and by golly! it actually worked!
Running stress and read/write tests now but it may actually be useful. Now I have to see if my tablet (and/or phone) can use a 1TB SD card

Sounds like you could fit an awful lot of eggs in that basket.

Well, my Samsung S9+ specs say that it can only support 400GB SD card, so maybe my tablet can use all of it
But the testing so far looks good.

Once in a while I see a camera or something that says it supports "up tp 32GB" (or whatever)… why is there a maximum? Shouldn't it use whatever I give it?
|
|
|
|
|
If you're lucky, the constraint only reflects the maximum size available when they developed the camera, and it will work with larger capacities.
If not, that's a hard limit imposed by their implementation of the file system.

A 1TB SD for $6? 
I'm an untrusting soul, so I'd suspect the offer myself - last time I didn't, I got a uSD that reported as 32GB, but which only had 1GB. Formatted OK, worked OK - until you exceeded 1GB at which point it started overwriting and corrupting everything.
That's too cheap: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

That's what I thought, so I have been running speed, stress and read/write tests on it for the past couple of hours - passed everything without problems.
I will let the tests run all night to see what happens....

I tend to agree with Griff on this.
I think the real test would be to try copying say, 500 gigs of data and see if it writes successfully (and if you could read it on another device).
