Voice texting question

@ProTruckDriver you seem to be very knowledgeable about the iphone. Can you tell me how to get the phone to advance to the next line by voice command? I will sometimes voice reply to an email. After I speak the greeting I usually have to manually press the return key to advance down a few lines before I can then continue with my voice to text. If you know a key word or trick to do this by voice I would appreciate your help. Teri

Netflix’s cheaper, ad-supported plan arrives – and it’s as bad as expected

By Al Griffin last updated about 12 hours ago The post noted that ads will be either 15 or 30 seconds in length, and will pop up both before and during streamed programs. Overall, viewers can expect to see 4 to 5 minutes of ads per hour. Similar to the service’s current Basic plan, video quality will be limited to 720p HD rather than the 4K with HDR available on the Premium tier <<< Full Article >»We’ve been thinking of cancelling Netflix for a while now. Not sure this option makes me more likely to keep it. If we didn’t have kids, might have already gotten rid of it. What do you all think? Do you use Netflix. Will this make you more likely to subscribe?

How to Set an Alarm on Mac

Want to set an alarm on your Mac? You can do that easily with one of several built-in apps, including the Reminders app and Calendar app on the Mac. You can even set recurring alarms if you’d like to have one every day, every hour, every week, or at whatever schedule you prefer.While the Mac does have a bundled clock in the menu bar, and a clock widget for notification center, and even a Clock app in macOS Ventura onward, older versions do not have a designated Clock app like the iPhone or iPad does where you can set alarms directly like on iPhone, so for now we’ll be covering setting an alarm via the Mac Reminders or Calendar applications, which works in every version of macOS (including Ventura). ⏰ Full Article ⏰

Brave browser to start blocking annoying cookie consent banners

By Bill Toulas September 29, 2022 “New versions of Brave will hide—and, where possible, completely block—cookie consent notifications,” mentions Brave’s blog post.“Brave’s approach is distinct and more privacy-preserving than similar systems used in other browsers (such as the “auto-consent” systems used in other browsers), and helps keep the Web user-first.”Unlike other solutions, such as browser extensions, that auto-consent for a user or block prompts, Brave says they break the communication channel between the browser and the consent-tracking system.

How to Set Messages to Automatically Delete on iPhone or iPad

.Do you want all of your Messages to automatically delete themselves after a specified time period from your iPhone or iPad? You can configure a Messages History setting that will allow for the automatic removal of message conversations after a chosen period of time. This auto-delete Messages setting is perhaps most useful as a storage saving mechanism and should not really be considered a privacy setting for a variety of reasons, and it has some obvious downsides too, mainly that you could potentially forever lose some great memories, conversations, chat transcripts, photos, and videos exchanged between you and whoever else you’re communicating with. If automatically removing Messages conversations and their media from iOS sounds appealing to you, here is how you can setup the auto-delete feature on iPhone or iPad: ★★ Full Article ★★

Removing devices from security display and protected count.

I show several more computers than I have currently running, on the ‘Security’/protected display. I want them gone, not just hidden. These have either been deactivated or parted out. How can I accomplish that from Webroot Secure Anywhere??
