I used to to go over to a friends surplus store outlet.
Now the strange of the strange occurred he said one time-come with me I have something I want to show you.
His electronic microscope and slide collection-3 hrs later the Pepper crawled out of the weird microscopic world we live in.
This guys collection of slides was something like 10 thousand or more.

Beware when buying microSD cards online. In recent years, Amazon has had issues with third-party sellers hawking counterfeit memory cards.
To avoid getting scammed, buy directly from a reputable seller like Best Buy or Adorama. This is an instance in which buying in person from a big-box store is a good idea; you’ll almost always pay more, but you’re more likely to get the genuine article. Another way to avoid fakes is to search for “Where to buy” links from the card manufacturers to find authorized retailers. If you are considering options on Amazon, look for “Ships from and sold by Amazon.com,” and be sure to select the original packaging if that’s an option (not Amazon’s “Frustration-free” packaging, for example).
Some Amazon customers have reported receiving fake cards directly from Amazon. If you suspect your card is a fake, contact Amazon customer support for an exchange. (You can look for strange packaging and test the card with CrystalDiskMark or another disk transfer test to check its speeds. Other downloadable tools can be used to make sure you receive the capacity you paid for.)

Jim,
When working at CPR I was talking with a General Manager of IT many years ago. He was involved in the very early days and said that those small light activated calculators we use.....well when he started something comparable for calculating was as big as a full size fridge. Full of tubes, capacitators, etc....much like the old floor model TVs we use to have.

Thanks Bill

It’s the new technology. I recently bought sd cards for my camera and they came with the itty bitty card and call the bigger card an adapter.

I either bought them at Walmart or Meijers.

Usually as I stated about the drone SD cards, DJI drones send cards with the drones if the customer buys what they call the combo pack. Side note: DJI makes hobby as well as commercial drones.

It appears that the driver who hit my daughter was uninsured. And he hit her at 50mph in a 35mph zone.
