That's cool, thank you! Although it's a lot thicker than the one I found, I'd pretty wide and thin over thick for a keychain. I might end up doing that, I found adhesive keychain things on Amazon as well.

Title. Does it exist? I found this, but it doesn't appear to be a keychain and I'm not sure if I'm comfortable drilling into the casing to add a chain/string to make it one. Does anyone make such a thing? Compact, fold out US/CA pins for standard AC outlets, with a USB out? I'd love to find something small enough to carry daily so the next time I'm at the hospital like today, +8 hours now... I have a way to charge! Big thanks for any and all advice!

Current version of WSA: http://tlu.dl.delivery.mp.microsoft.com/filestreamingservice/files/c7e4a2d1-eec9-41f7-9c20-04394821d8da?P1=1709828734&P2=404&P3=2&P4=cNfw1ZPI3fNsWL8dS%2bqSnR8Y29u%2fK36m5FkvSAUrSDrFkYbXEBjZlckSX%2fTah00cLmpnBgM7ejop55s1Dpwb9A%3d%3d

That would not work.

I have the package for the most recent update of WSA downloaded locally, I can "side load" it from that package without use of the Microsoft store or an internet connection. I also have an app from the Windows store, though presumably standalone .exe versions may exist as well, which bypass the usual process of using Android ADB to directly side load .apk files to my WSA system. I also have an app on my phone to extract .apk files so I can download apps from the Play Store on my phone and not mess with sketchy .apk hosting sites. Presumably with all of these things I should be safe to keep using the feature for the life of Windows 11 on my current and any future PCs. The only limiting factor should be the internal android version of WSA, which for the niche apps I use now that won't matter for many years, they work now on versions as old as Marshmallow, I doubt they'll break any time soon on WSA. Also, talking in the official Microsoft Devs Discord server several people are actively working on porting WSA to W10, updating WSA to Android 15 when that releases... so it sounds like the feature should be getting community support for some time. My real fear is Microsoft somehow disabling or removing current installs of WSA. They've done this before, removing working windows features with forced system updates. I don't want to lose my WSA, but I don't care if it doesn't get updated past its current state.

Hello, my supervisor at work is sending screenshots of our appointment schedule as images pasted into an email, using the snipping tool in Windows 10 to send the images via the current Office 365 version of Outlook. Some recipients are receiving the image as intended, but some are getting this: There doesn't appear to be any commonality between those receiving the email as text, as in, they aren't all gmail users, or mobile users, etc. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Ahhhh! Riley is a meanie, I'm not nobody, I use WSA and I use it heavily for my current workflow. WSA works really well with sideloaded .APK files, the notifications, file system access, and windowed apps all work flawlessly for me, and no other solutions I've tried like Blue Stacks or the official Android emulator are even remotely as integrated or easy to use. I already have the feature installed on several PCs. Logically all the files are there or it wouldn't work. What can I do to preserve the feature for future installs? And, do I need to do anything to keep the current installs? Will an end of support in a year actually remove the feature from my systems, or will the feature simply stop receiving updates? If it's just a stop to development I can live with that. All the apps I currently use on my PC through WSA are already older apps, they can take advantage of features in the newer Android versions but none of them require it, and they should keep working for years to come without further updates. But... if Microsoft can somehow remove the feature entirely I need some way to lock it down or restore the files. I can't lose this feature. Thanks in advance for your help!

Alrighty, that's what I'll do. Thank you!

Yeah I could, but am I any worse off with an older gigabit switch like this one?

I could, but I will need another anyways when I do get my PCs hard wired, figured this would be the cheapest with the least hardware.

Hi! I currently have 7 devices connected to an ethernet switch in my bedroom, however I want to add more so I will need another switch. My plan is to take the current 8 port switch I have now and use it at my PC desk in the future when I get around to hardwiring my PCs. Right now all are 5G/4G and/or WiFi. Then, I would buy this off eBay, or something similar if it sells before I snag it, to use where the current switch is. Here's what I'd be connecting to the new (used) eBay switch: Samsung Smart TV Series 6 Chromecast Ultra 4K Xbox X Series X 4K X ex X Nintendo Switch Nintendo Wii Epson ET-8500 Epson ET-8500 Epson TM-T88V Some new gigabit NAS I'm gonna set up These bold ones are the new things, everything until now has been fairly low bandwidth, honestly a 10/100 switch from decades ago would do fine, I only got the 8 port gigabit off Amazon because it was like $18 so, why not? But now that I need a 16 port I'm finding they go for $60 or more on Amazon, this used one on eBay is about what I paid for that 8 port switch, my only concern is it being so old, will it make an impact to my NAS? My modem/router is an Arcadyan kvd21 which has gigabit ports anyways, so it's not like a 2.5 gigabit or 10 gigabit would allow the NAS to connect any faster to my PCs whenever I get around to hardwiring them anyhow... so I think this will all work fine, right? Thanks in advance for any and all comments!

I don't think it's as rare as you think it is, it's fairly common in rural America... I love Visible as a second service. The unlimited 5 Mbps hotspot can be really handy. But I would not be so sold on it as my primary service, as a heavy data user it can be slow.

I have T-Mobile for my primary plan, postpaid Go5G Plus 11 voice lines for $112/mo taxes and fees included. ...T-Mobile is faster than Verizon or AT&T in town and at home for me. T-Mobile has 0 coverage at my work inside and outside, I need service from Verizon or AT&T at work. So I use the second SIM on VIsible. It's $25/mo taxes/fees included, doesn't include free phones like T-Mobile does, or any real perks beyond unlimited data on a different network, but it does what I need at work. And once in a while, I also use it on the go or at home when T-Mobile is really slow, it's the fastest most of the time, but not 100% of the time.
