To fellow landlords, how do you correspond with your tenants when you need to send out alerts? Like for example, if you have to turn off the water, or if you need to do some repair work in the laundry room, etc. I currently don’t have a good way of doing that. I have been calling, but most people don’t pick up, and later tell me they didn’t listen to my voicemail in time. DialMyCalls looks like it might be promising for this. I was thinking about sending out bulk SMS, because I think most tenants will actually see that in time. Has anybody here used it before?

Welcome to VGR!

I found an easy way to save extra money doing holiday shopping, and figured others here might also find it useful. It’s a browser extension for Chrome called Cleo. You install it, and when you are checking out at an online store, it alerts you in your cart if there are any discounted gift cards available for that store. If there are, you can buy one, and use it to pay for your purchase. That means you are getting whatever you are purchasing at that store at a discount. So far, I am seeing discounts ranging from 10% up to 20%, for stores like: Wayfair Reformation J. Crew Abercrombie & Fitch Free People Walmart GAP Sephora Ulta Beauty It seems to be mostly clothing stores, but also housewares, makeup, and sometimes big department stores like Walmart, which means theoretically it can be used to save on electronics and games too. I should mention it also isn’t exclusively for holiday shopping. You can use it year-round. Has anyone else used Cleo? How much has it saved you?

Our church is looking for a way we can quickly and easily stay connected with our staff and reach out to our entire congregation. We use email right now, but that’s a little slow. And sometimes people aren’t at home to check their emails, but they would see a text message on their phones. Like, I really want to be able to send out SMS to everyone with a single click if we can’t hold services at our usual time, etc. Does anyone know any good solutions for that? I’ve heard good things about DialMyCalls. If you’ve used it, can you tell me if it’d do what I’m looking for? While I’d love to hear from other churches, I’d be happy to get some feedback from other types of organizations too.

I’m someone who has a difficult time deciding what wines to buy. I have a high budget, but I’m still pretty new to it. What I’m looking for are online stores that don’t just sell wines, but curate them—like they offer a specific collection of vetted wines that pass high standards, rather than just stocking whatever they think will sell. Does anything like that exist? I've been reading a lot about VinoVest which seems to fill the void. Anyone have experience with VinoVest or other online stores?

I’ve been trying out Movavi for Mac on a free trial. So far, I love it. It is easier to use than anything else I’ve tried, so I am thinking about going ahead and making the purchase. I wanted to see if anyone else can weigh in though. If you’ve used the full version of Movavi, what do you like/dislike about it? If you haven’t tried Movavi, you can click here to download the trial for free. If I do decide to get the paid version, I will follow up and let everyone know how it goes.

Welcome to VGR, looking forward to seeing you around the community! 🙂

I was wondering if anyone here has used Voicely App. It’s a social media app for sharing snippets of your voice and listening to what others record. I was thinking it might be good for my mental health as an alternative to text-based platforms. On the whole, social media has been a mixed bag for my health. I’ve had a lot of great experiences on Reddit, but Twitter and FB have been black holes for me. I feel like Voicely has potential to be different, and that using actual voices to communicate might encourage more sincere, open and meaningful dialogue. If anyone here has tried it, I would love to hear your experiences!

Strictly online, and I have some other "jobs" in addition to VGR.

In 2023, subscribers to Netflix will be able to access 40 additional free games through Netflix Games. The games service is not popular yet, but Netflix is continuing to expand it, and even is producing 16 games itself. Do you use Netflix Games?

IO Interactive, the same studio that brought us Hitman, is working on a James Bond game. Speaking with Eurogamer, Christian Elverdam at IO Interactive explained that they want to “reinvent” the character as a “James Bond character who was not a movie character but who's comfortably just his own game character." To that end, the game will be an origin story. Are you excited for IO Interactive’s James Bond game? Source: https://www.xfire.com/james-bond-game-io-interactive-origin-story/

PM me if you're interested. I don't want you to feel like you must, especially since you've never had a Reddit account before. Sending you a PM now.

If you have a Reddit account (or want to register one), I am looking for posts to a new general Health related subReddit that my friend created. I need to increase activity and engagement. I am paying 100 VGR Points per Thread and 50 VGR Points per comment reply. I have some basic requirements as it pertains to quality and post/comment length. PM me or respond below if interested. I'll contact you.

https://www.xfire.com/the-last-of-us-multiplayer-spin-off-ps4/ I just saw here there is a Naughty Dog job posting for an associate multiplayer quality assurance tester who has "working knowledge of PS4 and PS5 systems." If you want to see the original posting, you can find it here. The posting doesn’t specifically mention the TLOU multiplayer game, though it does mention TLOU Part I in passing. It seems like a strong possibility that this listing is relevant to the TLOU multiplayer spin-off, and that the game will be playable on PS4 and not just PS5.

Played by 15 million+ in the US alone, Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) have never really been offered in the UK until now. First launched back in September 2022, UK Tote Group’s Tote Fantasy has grown 22% every week since its inception, with punters clearly enjoying the new product which provides, not only, an interest throughout the day but also a sense of being closer to the sporting action. Tote Fantasy is designed to combine a number of different betting products into one simple horse racing game over the duration of an afternoon. Players simply build their best stable with a budget of 10,000 mythical Guineas to try and win real money with a bet that is globally unique for the sport and only sets punters back £7. Think Football Manager but for horses with real money rewards. Jamie Benson, Head of Tote Fantasy, believes the recent addition of Private League functionality will see further growth and engagement in the product. Jamie, explained: “In the UK, longer term fantasy games in many sports have been around for decades, but DFS has never been a focus for the European market. However, racing not only lends itself perfectly to the medium, but also offers a bet that can take you through the day. Unlike Placepot punting, you can’t be out in the first leg, in fact, with profit to the top 25% of finishers, you are almost always in it to the last leg.” “Ultimately, I’m a punter and a racing fan before anything else, so we’ve focussed on building a game that we want to play – and for my money, this is the best horseracing bet in the market. But I would say that. We want punters to have a go themselves as I’m confident they’ll agree.” He added: “All betting products evolve and find their marketplace, we’ve seen spread betting come in, then exchanges, then the Lottery, happily thriving, and research shows us the younger demographic, who often have a more Fantasy/US sports/ESports focus, can enjoy access to the world of horseracing in a format they are more familiar with. We are confident the additional ability for players to compete in their own Private Leagues will appeal to this demographic even more so…as well as to the racing purist.” With Private League functionality now available, Tote Fantasy will be launching the updated product with two new sponsorships in the Irish racing calendar at Gowran Park on Saturday, 18 February, and at Fairyhouse on Saturday, 25 February, where Tote Fantasy is the headline sponsor of the Bobbyjo Chase - won twice before by Tote ambassador, Danny Mullins.

Trading cryptocurrency can be a highly profitable endeavor, but it also comes with significant risks. To make money trading crypto, you'll need to have a solid understanding of the market, a well-thought-out trading strategy, and the ability to manage your emotions. First, it's important to understand the market. Crypto markets are highly volatile and can change rapidly. It's important to stay informed about news and developments that may impact the value of the coins you're trading. This includes things like new partnerships, regulatory changes, and the overall state of the global economy. Next, you'll need to develop a trading strategy. This will be different for everyone, but it's important to have a plan in place before you start trading. Some traders use technical analysis to make decisions, while others prefer fundamental analysis. It's also important to set clear risk management rules, such as stop-loss orders to limit your potential losses. In addition, you need to have a good understanding of the different coins and tokens available. It's important to research each coin's technology, team, and community before investing. This will give you a better idea of the coin's long-term potential and help you make more informed decisions. Once you have a solid understanding of the market and a well-thought-out trading strategy, the next step is to start trading. You can do this on a crypto exchange, such as Binance or Coinbase. These platforms allow you to buy and sell coins, as well as view market data and charts to help you make trading decisions. It's also important to manage your emotions when trading. It can be easy to get caught up in the excitement of a winning trade or the disappointment of a losing one. But it's important to remember that crypto markets are highly unpredictable, and even the best traders will experience losses. It's important to stick to your trading strategy, even when the market is not behaving the way you expect it to. Finally, it's important to remember that investing in crypto carries a high level of risk. You should never invest more than you can afford to lose. It's also important to diversify your portfolio, rather than putting all your eggs in one basket. In conclusion, making money trading crypto requires a solid understanding of the market, a well-thought-out trading strategy, and the ability to manage your emotions. It is also important to stay informed about news and developments that may impact the value of the coins you're trading, and to research each coin's technology, team, and community before investing. Always remember to manage your risk and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
