Picture is deceiving

When I ordered this, I actually expected to receive what was pictured. Instead, I received one tiny figure out of the bunch, and could find no means to order all others. Was a disappointment.

Okay movie. Got it for grandkids

Another movie I had hoped to see in the theater but could not. One of Robert Downey’s strengths is NOT imitating a British accent. But animation was well done.

Writer-director Greta Gerwig (Lady Bird) has crafted a Little Women that draws on both the classic novel and the writings of Louisa May Alcott, and unfolds as the author's alter ego, Jo March, reflects back and forth on her fictional life. In Gerwig's take, the beloved story of the March sisters - four young women each determined to live life on their own terms - is both timeless and timely.

The smaller brother to Google Hime

Verified Purchase:Yes
Already had a Google home, which we love and use constantly. Got this device as a freebie when I purchased other equipment. It’s the second nest addition to the home. Now have Google Home in the living room, a nest in the bedroom, and a nest in the loft with my computers and server. All perform equally well!

Beyond the fact that I had some installation issues (related to the wiring of old thermostat vs this model), which were quickly resolved with a quick Google search, the device has functioned flawlessly. Even reduced my energy bill by half!

Great network printer
on April 10, 2020
Posted by: HammerinHank
Verified Purchase:Yes
Easy to install. Easy to use. Easy to attach to the network. I was a little disappointed that it doesn't have its own Ethernet port for connection to the network switch, so can only connect wirelessly. Also disappointed that it doesn't have any peripheral slots to plug in memory cards for picture printing, but I'll get over it.

Print with high performance using this Epson T212 black ink cartridge. The dark tone contrasts with white or neutral-tone papers for superior visibility, and the standard yield is ideal for taking on regular print jobs. This Epson T212 black ink cartridge is simple to install into select Epson machines, saving time and effort.

Expand your home network without compromising quality with this TP-Link Powerline starter kit. The adapter uses your existing power lines to supply your home with a gigabit Ethernet connection, and its automatic power-saving mode conserves energy. This TP-Link Powerline starter kit installs with no configuration for a fast, efficient setup.
 

Will this device block the other plug-in position on the outlet?

The unit does not have a feed-through receptacle built in, so yes, it will block an outlet. In my case, I simply plugged it into the lower outlet which then allows the upper outlet to be used for other purposes.

does this come with two Ethernet cables? please specify how many it comes with

I actually don't recall for sure, but believe it did. For my particular home layout, I ended up having to buy custom Ethernet cables anyway, to accommodate the different lengths to make my connections.

Most of the powerline adapters, these included, come in pairs. What if I need an odd number? Can you buy a single extra unit a la carte or must you get an additional pair?

I am an end-user so cannot answer all questions about what is available from the market. What I do know is that I believe they are sold in pairs because one is needed as a transmitter, and one us used at the receiver. That being said, I also know that they will work successfully in odd numbers. I presently have 3 in use, one, of course as the transmitter, one as a receiver for my TV, and one as a receiver for a laptop that consistently has issues staying connected to the WIFI. Extending the virtual Ethernet to that laptop indirectly solved its connection issues.
I might suggest that if you have need for one, you might have need for more in the near future, as I did. I was not able to find a single unit for sale, though I must admit I did not do an exhaustive search. I did suspect that I would have a need for expansion in the future so didn't shy away from having a spare laying around. (At some point in the near future, I plan to update the TV in the guest bedroom from dumb to smart, and when that happens, I will put the spare unit to use.)
I would also suggest that when you select a supplier, be sure to confirm that any units you buy meet the IEEE standard for Ethernet-over-power lines. That way you can be sure that all units you buy will work together, even if sourced from different manufacturers.

Does this printer have fax capabilities? I saw few question asked about this and the answer was yes but then saw another one say no.

There are no options for attaching a phone line so I would have to say "no" to the question.
It can scan, and that scanned document can then be emailed.

I would have to say "no". it's an inkjet so doesn't use heat for setting the pring.

Store edited photos, videos, and games on this 3.5-inch Western Digital hard drive. It has dynamic cache for optimizing allocation between reads and writes, and there's plenty of space to store files with its 4TB capacity.
 

Is it compatible with XPS 8500 DELL DESKTOP ?

It should fit in any desktop and operate well with any operating system. It won't fit in a laptop.
I've used it for both Windows and Linux.

Will this work with Linux Mint OS?

I'm presently using it in a Linux Redhat server, formatted to EXT4 and it works just fine.
So, yes, it will.

i bought it sometime last year, and it just stopped working. My computer wasnt able to read it. ive tried it also at my friends PC, same result. what seems to be the problem?

Hard drives seem to fail randomly. Sometimes they fail with surface defects, but most time its the electronics that fail.
I suggest you double-check online and confirm that unit is still under warranty, then follow instructions to get and RMR so you can return it for a replacement unit.

Simplify your everyday life with the Google Home, a voice-activated speaker powered by the Google Assistant. Use voice commands to enjoy music, get answers from Google and manage everyday tasks. Google Home is compatible with Android and iOS operating systems, and can control compatible smart devices such as Chromecast or Nest."
 

How do I set google home up

It comes with simple instructions but the setup takes place over your phone. In fact, all accessories I've attached to Google Home have been through the smart phone.
Download the app to your phone. The app will find the assistant, and help you log into your wifi. Once it's online, it can answer your questions.
If you bought any accessories, they too, come with their own app that needs to be downloaded to the phone. Once they are set up, they can be added to the Google app then the assistant will control them. For example, I bought a WEMO smart plug, which I can operate from my phone. I added it to the Google app the plugged my Christmas tree into the plug. Now all I have to do is say "Hey Google. Turn on the Christmas tree." and the assistant responds with "Okay. Turning the Christmas tree on." and the tree lights up.
