I knew Google Search had a site: operator and I thought you could or them together using something like this:
reboot site:superuser.com or site:android.stackexchange.com
To my surprise that returned zero results as in empty result list.
Indeed: the OR needs to be in uppercase to work:
you can use the OR operator to add another site to your query:
reboot site:superuser.com OR site:android.stackexchange.com

Just learned a new Google Chrome URL chrome://devices/ which lists your Google Cloud devices like printers.
Though in the case of OKI printers, you have to enter your printers at the printer which the Menu button is a painful exercise. [WayBack] oki-c332dn-control-panel_maxwidth.jpg (525×550).
You can also view the device list in https://www.google.com/cloudprint#printers
For some OKI printers (including the MC342 series) you need to update the firmware. For a Mac, you need the below firmware update tool that automagically:
- detects the printers
- finds the firmware on the internet
- updates the printer
Tool: [WayBack] FWUP_020000_10.7.dmg via [WayBack] Firmware Update | OKI Global

A while ago at [WayBack] The only bad thing about getting Google Fi is giving up Google Voice — Mike Elgan wrote
You can use Google Voice or you can use Google Fi, but you can’t use both. I just bought a Google Pixel 3 in order to move off AT&T and onto Google Fi fulltime. (We used to use Google Fi using my wife’s account, but only as a WiFi hotspot while traveling abroad.) It’s kind of a bummer, b
But the first comment has a solution that works, if you use two Google accounts that is:
I have Fi and use Google Voice on the same phone. I have to sign in to Voice with a separate Google account so there are some compromises but it works for how I use it.

From [Archive.is] Chrome not asking to save or saving passwords? – Google Product Forums
Hemanth M said:
After a lot of playing around, I’ve arrived at an elegant solution. Here are the steps:Steps to make Google Chrome offer to save (prompt) password for a particular site (for e.g abcd.com) and Auto-login the site with the credentials thus saved.
- Go to the given URL ‘abcd.com‘
- Right-click Page Info and disable ‘JavaScript’
- Reload the page.
- Enter the credentials (uid,pwd)
- A prompt appears to save password.
- Click on Save password.
- Auto-Login Extension bubble appears on this page.
At this point it is important because the extension ‘Auto-Login’ (like many other extensions) require JavaScript to be enabled.
- Re-enable the JavaScript for this page and reload the page.
- Now Click on the ‘Auto-Login’ bubble for remembering automatically logging into the site hereafter!
In my case, this was for ESXi credentials. Do not go the cheap way or revealing them inside javascript like these guys:

[WayBack/Archive.is] Dimensions – Chrome Web Store: A tool for designers to measure screen dimensions
This extension measures the dimensions from your mouse pointer up/down and left/right until it hits a border. So if you want to measure distances between elements on a website this is perfect. It doesn’t really work with images because there the colors change a lot pixel to pixel.
# Images & HTML Elements
Measure between the following elements: images, input-fields, buttons, videos, gifs, text, icons. You can measure everything you see in the browser.
# Mockups
Your designer handed you mockups as PNGs or JPEGs? Just drop them into Chrome, activate Dimensions and start measuring.
# Keyboard Shortcut
You can start and stop dimensions with the ALT + D shortcut.
# Area Boundaries
Wanna get the radius of a circle? Is text standing in your way? Press Alt to measure the dimensions of a connected area.
