Amazon Delivery Confirmation Solved
If your one of those consumers who always buy at Amazon and always wonder why you get those delivery confirmation from them with no package. Here is the mystery to the where's my package problem.
It looks like carriers are being instructed from their superiors that after a specific time period they have to pull over and scan all your packages. Regardless if they have been delivered or not. It's an agreement among Amazon and the carrier to continue doing business. Not doing so by the carrier will eventually result in the carrier loosing business from Amazon.
So what this means is that you will get a delivery confirmation from Amazon that your package was delivered, when in reality it's not or it's in transit.
Now it all makes sense and consumers have no choice but to adapt with the reality of package delivery service.

Internet Speed Test
Want to test your internet connection to see if your getting exactly what your paying for. Here are some great speed test sites to check out depending on your service to make sure your speed is at it's prime.
Contact your carrier and find out what your upload and download speeds are for the plan that you are paying for.
Do some test and see if the upload and download speeds match on what your paying for. I would run a few test at different times of the week when no one is on, to make sure that your speed test are accurate.
If your not getting the speed that your paying for, then contact your carrier and dispute that with them. If that leads no where, then your choices are limited. Which is to stay with the carrier or find a carrier who is going to give you what you paid for. Good luck.

Zello Help
Good application, but it will not get you out of a mess should you get hit by a catastrophe. It sounds like it's can make sense, but when you follow up on the infrastructure that your application is being supported. The final results is that it's a phone application that's connected to cell towers. Should the cell towers go down, well let's just say your out of luck. Your no better off than texting or making a call to family or friends for help.
It's not that the application is not useful, but can be used as another method for extending yourself on getting help.

Facebook AI rescue
Looks like Facebook just updated their artificial intelligence to detect suicide prevention. The technology has been out for sometime but recently was it able to start doing what it was meant to do from day one, which is to prevent events like this from going on.
I am impressed and glad to see the company moving in a moral direction.

Disable Auto Scrolling
Hate the new browser auto scrolling option? Most websites are just not scrolling friendly and give users a hard time, viewing pages. The only fix right now is to disable this option until everyone upgrades their websites.
Chrome
Load chrome://flags/#smooth-scrolling in the browser's address bar and hit enter. This takes you directly to the preference on the flags page. Alternatively, openchrome://flags directly, hit F3, and search for smooth scrolling to find it this way. Click on the disable link to turn the feature off.
Firefox
This is why I was happy to see there's actually a way to disable the automatic scrollfeature. You only have to open the browser's configuration settings (Tools > Options) , go to the Advanced section and then, in the General tab, remove the tick from “Useautoscrolling”
IE
Launch Internet Explorer 8 by double-clicking on its desktop icon or by clicking the "Start" button and navigating to the browser. 2. Click "Tools" on the overhead menu and then scroll down to "Internet Options." In the "Internet Options" window, click the "Advanced" tab.

Nest Security
Looks like Nest is upgrading it's feature abilities to offer now a security system that requires no passkey. Pretty smart but very expensive. I am almost certain anyone can purchase a similar Nest home security product for a quarter the value of what this one is worth. I just can't see myself paying so much for just two sensors, a keypad and passkeys. You decide?
