I'm trying to fill out a profile on a website. I need to put in my birthdate. The datepicker it's giving me is like a "today's date" calendar, with no way to skip back in years, only months. That's like 400+ taps to get to my "Geriatric Millennial" birthdate. I would like to avoid 400 taps. Here's a link to a screenshot of the picker in question. https://i.imgur.com/ZQJjCk7.png

Any options? I looked at medical leave but it was like, "what kind of cancer or broken bones do you have and who's your doctor?"

I've got neither cancer nor broken bones and certainly don't have a doctor.

I do have a persistent cough, fever, my entire body hurts and I feel like I'm going to fall over. Am I just stuck coming into work?

What the Subject says. I have a new match, and they're one of the closest I've ever gotten on 23andMe. Second closest non-sibling. And they're even more closely related to my closest non-sibling match. Based on our shared matches, they're also a missing link between two lines I can't figure out.

I'd love to see 23andMe's guess at their position in my tree.

But I haven't seen a new name added to it ever since it first got built.

Obviously I've reached out to the individual but they haven't responded yet and they have their privacy settings on pretty high so it's just initials, % shared, and matches. No cMs or DNA data, no overlap data, no biographical/genealogical info, etc.

So in the mea

Inbound stow, here. They've been hitting us hard the past couple months with mostly large, heavy work. Not nearly the mix we're supposed to have.

It's taking its toll on me and last week my shoulder started getting really sore. Yesterday it started being a sharp pain when I pushed things into pods. Today's even worse. I know there's AmCare but is that my best choice right now? At best I've heard they offer Tylenol and send you back to work. At worst it sounds more like an interrogation where they're trying to find a way to blame you for your injury.

I don't want to keep making this problem worse and worse.

But I also don't currently have enough PTO/UPT/etc to just take off.

What's the be

And if so, what was your experience? Super, super fed up at the moment and contemplating quitting before I put myself through another peak, and so that I have the time and energy to apply for better jobs.

But as I was fiddling with the resignation menu, I saw they have an option to have someone call you to discuss things.

So, anyone actually done this, and what was the result?

Yeah they say 3 minutes per hour, but if you punch out 1 minute early at the end of the day, you lose a minute off your accrual.

So is it every full 20 minutes worked is 1 minute of UPT or what? And does it start counting at the beginning of the day, or cumulatively throughout the year? E.g. if you leave work 1 minute early on Friday, but punch in 1 minute early on Monday, does that then bump your accrual for Friday up to 30 minutes instead of 29?

Etc.

Does anybody actually know besides the higher-ups who concocted this new system? Because they sure don't have it written down anywhere an ordinary associate can see.

So, I have a routine that fires with my alarm. It turns my phone to 100% volume, starts playing the news, etc. At the bottom of the routine, it shows "device that started the routine" under device for audio.

When I try and create a routine in Google Home on my phone (Pixel 5), I don't get the option for "device that started the routine" for audio, and none of the same commands used in the alarm-triggered routine work in the routine I created.

Basically, I want to unsilence my phone when I leave work, and it just gives me a "routine needs attention" error message when it triggers.

I can't figure out how to make it work, but obviously it can work because the routine I already have does it

I understand that battery life understandably drops quite a bit when the watch is running full tilt with gps etc.

But say I wanted to track myself with gps non-stop, outdoors, how long can I expect that to last from a full charge?

EDIT: anyone else wanting some idea of this watch's longevity should read my reply below.

I have a routine set up on my phone, tied to my alarm. I wake up, it tells me the weather, and plays 4 specific news podcasts I have selected.

This morning it decided to ignore that and play Fox News instead.

Every time I cast a video or use the app drawer to start a YouTube video, the video plays normally but then after several minutes the screen blanks out. I can still hear the audio. Rebooting temporarily fixes it but it always happens again.

Only been happening for a few days now, wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
