 Apple - Leather Case for Apple® iPhone® SE (2nd Generation) - Black
Apple - Leather Case for Apple® iPhone® SE (2nd Generation) - Black
These Apple-designed cases fit snugly over the curves of your iPhone without adding bulk. They're made from specially tanned and finished European leather, so the outside feels soft to the touch and develops a natural patina over time. The machined aluminum buttons match the finish of your leather case, while a microfiber lining inside helps protect your iPhone. And you can keep it on all the time, even when you're charging wirelessly.Like every Apple-designed case, it undergoes thousands of hours of testing throughout the design and manufacturing process. So not only does it look great, it's built to protect your iPhone from scratches and drops.
 
Great case

This modem dual band router works very well I subscribe to a 150 Mbps service I consistently get right at 150-160 Mbps with this. logging into the main menu is easy so you can control your SSID broadcast and control who can see it, you can even set up a guest network if you like. I recommend this as an option over renting from your local provider.

I ended up having to return this unit. It may have been defective,
I am a Cox subscriber and this unit was difficult to get set up on the network I spoke with 3 different Cox technician before one of them was able to get it to work, and they all had the correct mac address
once it was online download speed were maxing out at 30-40 Mbps, when i subscribe to 150 Mb package, traded it in for a Netgear and bingo was back up top the 150 Mb

Google - Pixel 7 128GB (Unlocked) - Obsidian
Meet Pixel 7. Powered by Google Tensor G2, it’s fast and secure, with amazing battery life and the advanced Pixel Camera. Take beautifully authentic, accurate photos with Real Tone and stunning video with Cinematic Blur. And with the certified Titan M2 security chip and a built-in VPN, Pixel helps protect your personal data.₁
 

Why is this phone $250 cheaper from Best Buy than it is from Verizon? Are there features that I am not getting from Best Buy?

It’s on sale you can also get it at same price straight from google, and no this is the same exact phone save some money and just get it from Best Buy

Cuisinart Advantage professional-quality stainless steel knives have a cutting-edge, nonstick coating that makes slicing easier - and allows color coding during food prep to avoid cross-contamination. In style-conscious hues for today's design-smart consumer, these premium knives come with matching blade guards and ergonomic handles.
 

How would one sharpen these knives once they’re dull? I have a very basic, handheld knife sharpener. Isn't it likely that the blade’s black, nonstick ‘coating’ will be scraped/chipped off while sharpening, no matter how basic or simple the sharpener is?

Just sharpen as you would any knife
