Minor yet significant? Yes! Minor and insignificant do not have to be synonyms.
Major yet mostly insignificant? Maybe. What if I just need to know it’s something I can not change? Then can mental and emotional peace/serenity start to come?
Major and significant? Of course. What’s your first thought? Is that combination good or bad? Or both?
Running out of space in your free 15 GB (gigabytes)? Here’s how to free some space up! NOTE: these steps work the best on a laptop or larger screen!
1st, look at a breakdown @ https://one.google.com/storage of the 3 main areas — Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Photos — that add up to your total of 15 GB (same thing as 15,000 mb(megabytes) ).
2nd, go to their Storage Manager @ one.google.com/storage/management Then go through each section they have and delete or backup download first the ones you can afford to get rid of. NOTE: It gives you a small sampling of your very largest files. (Not all of them. For a more complete list of your large files/emails, keep on reading.)
3rd, double check Google Drive by looking at their longer list of largest files @ drive.google.com/drive/quota Don’t need some of them? Right-click and delete them. (Or download and save to your local computer’s/phone’s backup drive/memory card first — before deleting them.)
4th, double check Gmail (or get a more complete list of large emails) — by searching for example “larger:10mb”. Type that in the search box at the top of your regular Gmail view @ https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox If you want bigger emails then adjust it to say “larger:100mb” for example, or whatever # in megabytes that you want to see. It looks like this:
Delete any you don’t need. Or open the email and scroll down and Download the attachment/file to your drive. Then trash delete it! P.S. need to limit the search to just 1 folder? Add it’s name, for example the Sent folder like this — “larger:10mb in:Sent”.
5th, see even more of your largest Photos (ones that you do not show in the Storage Manager (that we talked about in step 2)) by going to … stay tuned; will finish this part soon! 🙂
They’re accustomed
to performing in front of thousands in packed arenas from city to city.
But on Sunday, some of the world’s most popular musicians will perform
in a new setting:
Their living rooms.
Elton John will host
the concert with performances by Mariah Carey, Billie Eilish, Alicia
Keys, Tim McGraw and Billie Joe Armstrong. The benefit concert is being
dubbed as “Living Room Concert For America.”
The musicians are
being forced away from touring as arenas and stadiums worldwide are
being closed to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
The benefit concert will air Sunday at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT live on FOX. The concert will benefit Feeding America and First Responders Children’s Foundation.
Creating is more about discovering than it is about inventing. I would say it is almost impossible that others somewhere somehow have not thought of the same good idea. That is the nature of goodness. That is the nature of light and inspiration. #ibelieve
#Question, and question, until you understand better. #Believe that you will find a good answer. Cynicism leads to lack of inquiry and lack of discovery. Believing that you can seek and find leads to truth.
–from #anonymous so to speak.
P.S. #questions can lead to #truth and #light, and then #hope. I do #believe.
p.p.s. side-note: twitter did not actually invent #microblogging. it’s only the most famous example of microblogging (which is really just a digital way of #microjournaling) Many people microblog via facebook or instagram.
Trying to show someone what’s on your screen?! Frustrated because you don’t know how. Well here you go:
Windows — use “Snipping Tool”; you can find it on your Start Menu, OR by pressing the ‘windows’ button towards the bottom left of your keyboard.
Mac laptop/desktop (MacOS) — use __ or the keyboard combos for it — Shift-Command-3 or Shift-Command-4; or search for it via Spotlight (little magnifying glass at top right) – search for “Screenshot.”1
Android — press the buttons for ‘down volume’ and ‘power’ at the same time. Then let go.
iPhone/iPad’s (iOS) — press the ‘side button’ and ‘volume up’ buttons at the same time. Then let go.
Linux/BSD/GNU — search for and/or install the “Screenshot” app.
There you go, now you can Save it and then Share it with yourself or friends!
#1 – Couldn’t remember the name of the Mac app but I found it at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201361
Many of us know to make backup copies of our files (photos, videos, and other documents) but don’t do it regularly.
Well here are 3 easy ways to do that! And yes, you want 3 copies just in case things go really bad! 🙂
Use a ‘cloud’ service like iCloud to make copies of all your important files. (Android users, see Google Drive or Dropbox, etc.) Go to your “Settings” to see if you have it turned on: *
Periodically plug in your device to your laptop/desktop, and then with iTunes manually back it up by clicking “Back Up Now”! Lastly, setup a Reminder* or Notification on your iPhone to remind yourself to do this weekly or monthly!*
And then copy those files to an external hard drive that you store inside of a fire safe OR a memory stick that you keep in your pocket or purse on your keyring!
Images and idea for Reminder from appletoolbox.com/extra-level-backup-ipad-iphone Note: i also put a star next to “Notification” above because I’m thinking of a different app — Google Calendar — really doesn’t matter whether you use iOS’s Reminders or notifications from another app to get the job done. Tis just personal preference.
