Turbotax, you had one job.. Because of this bug surviving spouses have had to mail instead of e-file for years. I escalated with support. They said it would be fixed, but could not notify me when. Just keep trying...

@turbotax @freetaxusa
Heather -- please read the full thread (there are three pages of unhappy customers) It's a bug in Turbotax and it needs to be fixed. Sending people who have experienced a loss to read IRS forms is just cruel.

I do apologize, Paul. I am unable to see the thread here. I would be happy to look into this. Could you please provide more details? Do you have a case number so that I may look at the notes? Sorry for the confusion. ~Heather :)

If you want you can refer to case #457576616 It's closed, but should have details. Intuit/TurboTax has a market cap of $74B, and just spent $7B to buy Credit Karma. They can afford to hire people to manually fix these returns...

Same exact problem. Used FreeTaxUSA and e-file accepted in 15 minutes.

So yeah, don't forget about your Drive Birthday quota expiration..
The current deal is 2TB for 9/year, which isn't bad. You also get 100 'play points', which nets you in raw play credit or more if you use in-app.
And plus it saves me from looking at S3 compatible archive options now... (I use restic + rclone to backup to drive..)

Bob forgot to mention that he maintained paperboy.micro.umn.edu, a Mac IIfx running INN for a good long while. That enabled Clarinet UPI news.
Having full text searches in 1992 blew people's minds. Plus you could bookmark a search, which was another game changer!

Saw Gza and Nur-d this weekend. Old school and new school. Gza is of course a legend and is also doing a Science series on Netflix. Nur-d was the headliner at the 2019 best new bands show. Weaves in the nerd culture in a very joyful way. Superb entertainer and you'll probably be seeing more of him..
Thank you @BillDeVille for the heartfelt dedication of my request this morning on United States of #Americana on @TheCurrent
