I was walking along and I was getting a sun glare in my eyes but it was not sunny out.. I then went to read a text message and it was misty I could not read it thinking it must be because my eyes are tired. I did some home visits and I could not read my diary it was misty. Working in the medical profession I get a discount so I had an eye examination and it turned out that I need reading glasses it was that sudden.. I am sure these computers damage your eyesight... Everybody who uses them seems to need reading glasses... I got two pairs of reading glasses for half price. I do not like looking down and typing with glasses on my nose so I tried purchasing one of these extra large keyboards from Amazon which the old geriatric use. They all seem to have a problem with the F key.
I am receiving the bank insurance malware attachment every day it is getting past the Kaspersky Linux email server. Even SpamAssassin now recognises the e-mails as spam, but Kaspersky not a whisper.
Bad news for the unemployed ( jobseekers and universal credit ) you are all being switched over to computerised jobsearch from your home and you have to communicate with your adviser through e-mail. All your jobsearch activities will be done through e-mail. You will no longer be going to the job center.
Spam gangs are setting up fake jobsearch websites to collect your e-mail addresses those who are silly enough to click the links or read the attachments are going to have endless problems. The new malware on the block is calling itself Spybot, naming itself after a anti-malware program attacking jobseekers.
postmaster @ slashdot.org Oh no — pwned! Pwned on 1 breached site and found no pastes (subscribe to search sensitive breaches) Go to the site put in a e-mail address and it will say it has been "pwned." When in actual fact it has not been they are using spam bots databases which adds postmaster to every domain name. Also when you first enter the site it will declare that whatever e-mail address you enter has been "pwned." try it for yourself try BillyNoMates @ NoMates . com.uk co. uk
When I click the link it wants me to give them my email address before I can read the article. It cannot be any worse than Intel (ME ) The HP Z840 workstation BIOS has 3 menu layers to switch it off so it declares. But I do not believe it switches it off it hides it. When running the Intel-SA-00075 Detection and Mitigation Tool it says not vulnerable does not get a response from it. If I move clip 40 and switch on the machine BIOS flashes a message before booting about it being vulnerable and download the patch fix from HP. http://oi67.tinypic.com/zwc5xl...
I have about 20 domain names that are registered on my be half. The company registers the domain names for you and they create a name for you. Some of my names are phil, Dave, Davidson, Martin and Philip. When they register your email domain they give you a name and an address and a country and then they give you your password which you are meant to change for obvious reasons.
When all this is complete you must use one of those domain names as a contact email address even though the registered domain name is not you. My one is postmaster, and because it has to exist on all the registered domain names it is chock-a-block full of malware and scammers email in multiple languages from multiple countries.
They look through the register for a email addresses and thus people constantly send you malware and scammers links day in day out. P.S. Other Internet companies constantly bombard you with special offers and why you should leave the company you have registered your domain name with and register with them. Why you should purchase their services rather than the one you have what ever that may be! THEY ARE WORSE THAN ALL THE VIRUSES AND MALWARE PUT TOGETHER... You can switch off incoming email for that particular domain email address but you have to switch it on for domain updates, to declare that you are who you are saying you are.
Contact email registration is a nuisance.. I ended up paying a company identification protection to handle all the domain emails it has to go through them before it can get to me. And the only one that should get to me is the message about verifying that my name is Dave or Martin or Philip.
I had a go at Windows 10 pro and it is spyware and it does not even hide the fact. I use Windows 7 is a pay system you can lock down Windows 7.
I have always use Linux/UNIX. I had to copy a simple HTML purchase page over to a Windows system I tried dragging and dropping it SMB:// the reply was invalid copy. Tried moving it to a memory stick same error message. Everybody else on their Windows system had already copied it. I had to remove the HTML by renaming it to make it just a readme file before I could copy it.. Once I had got it on to the Windows system I then renamed it back to its original name with the HTML.
Linux/desktop can slow down the workflow as a desktop and have you cursing the thing for messing up simple tasks.
I used Facebook but I had to use Firefox my browser being incompatible with Facebook.
My recommendations for friends were obvious gangsters.. I am not a gangster I do not know any gangsters.
2 months later they recommended a social worker from Taiwan I am not Taiwanese and I do not know any social workers from Taiwan. They then recommended as a friend 2 black people from South Africa who were obvious small-time muggers! I do not know anybody from South Africa and I definitely do not know any muggers..
The Debian 9.2.0 of KDE, is so unstable and put together by somebody who hated KDE. The Russian version the Japanese, version and the English version are greeted by a logon U.S. flag! As you go through it you can see it is bits and pieces slapped together without any consideration. I would not use KDE if somebody paid me to. it is not a work environment it is a mishmash that cannot be taken seriously as a desktop.
RHEL/CentOS typically has better hardware support on workstation gear, I would give that a try. They even upgraded the GNOME release in RHEL 7.4 to the same version that's in Debian so it should be pretty much the same GUI experience.
Debian 9.2.0 all desktops function apart from KDE, which is spyware like there is something not right about it. You are greeted with a logon U.S. flag I am a stubborn independent person so I was about to delete it but I continued. I remove the flag the language was set to English but KDE, had set the language differently. I went to correct it but it started changing itself to English. The date system is around the wrong way it should be 20/10/2017.
Konqueror tried to make a connection to kde.org but come back with the message "search results for texthtml"
It as the U.K. disable sign which is a blue sign with a circle with a person shaped image sitting on the circle which creates a wheelchair image the physically disabled U.K. sign. When clicking it it says "KDE accessible Enabl screenreader."

I spent years and years on Debian, and one look at Debian 9.2.0 I wanted it on my workstation a fully souped up Z840 3 samsung 850 EVO 1TB drives and a 6TB hard drive and all the other NSA shit peculiarities of the Z840.
Downloaded the DVDs and you select which desktop, you want to use and you select systemd if you want it. All the years I have spent on Linux and the various desktops and I could not get Debian 9.2.0 to install on the Z840 it would just freeze up no error messages nothing it would just lock up.
Such a pity I am going to have to install it on my old e-mail HP workstation instead a old XW6600. I no longer run my own e-mail I pay somebody else to do it.
Debian 9.2.0 looks good. I do not like Virtual box systems.
SuSE is an American company that comes with a copyright agreement which you have to accept if you wish to use it.
Wikipedia: On 27 April 2011, Novell (and SUSE) were acquired by The Attachmate Group,[4] which made SUSE an independent business unit. Later, in October 2014, the entire Attachmate Group, including SUSE, was acquired by the British firm Micro Focus International.[5] SUSE continues to operate as an independent business unit.[6]
As an American, I always viewed it as a German distro (since it used to be) and I never see it used here (yes, I'm sure a bunch or people will now contradict me, but that doesn't change me never seeing it).
On 15 September 2014, Micro Focus announced that it would acquire The Attachmate Group for US$1.2 billion in shares, which will give it ownership of the Attachmate, NetIQ, Novell, and SUSE product lines. Attachmate's parent company Wizard Parent LLC—consisting of the investment groups Elliott Management Corporation, Francisco Partners, Golden Gate Capital, and Thoma Bravo, will hold a 40% stake in Micro Focus post-acquisition.[13][14]

SuSE is an American company that comes with a copyright agreement which you have to accept if you wish to use it. OpenSuSE is a corporate backed version that benefits the SuSE version both are copyrighted by the company in the U.S. that owns it. It also had or has dealings with the Microsoft Corporation and thus was considered a black sheep among Linux users and desktop users. It is not a German product.
I believe it was trading under Chapter 11 in the U.S. Novell owned it and then NetIQ, purchased parts of it and also Attachmate, purchase shares in it. At one time I had to use the box version supplied by Novell. I found it irritating people in the U.K. would notice immediately the date is around the wrong way even when you select your location. Also you are not allowed to use LibreOffice, even though it was set to British English, the interface and the spell checker was set to U.S. spelling. If people moved their documents over without looking spellchecker would get you in trouble...
It was a constant struggle to correct all the mistakes that they had made.. In the U.K., the date goes like this 15/10/2017. And then there are the obvious things like spelling you had to delete U.S. and install en-gb. you then had to find all the U.S. parts and delete them.
I found the product insulting and hated using it! the English are very tolerant and would say things like "oh it is Americans just copy the fix its on the list."
First introduced in Intel’s 965 Express Chipset Family, the Intel Management Engine (ME) is a separate computing environment physically located in the (G)MCH chip (for Core 2 family CPUs which is separate from the northbridge), or PCH chip replacing ICH(for Core i3/i5/i7 which is integrated with northbridge).
The ME consists of an individual processor core, code and data caches, a timer, and a secure internal bus to which additional devices are connected, including a cryptography engine, internal ROM and RAM, memory controllers, and a direct memory access (DMA) engine to access the host operating system’s memory as well as to reserve a region of protected external memory to supplement the ME’s limited internal RAM. The ME also has network access with its own MAC address through the Intel Gigabit Ethernet Controller integrated in the southbridge (ICH or PCH).
The Intel Management Engine with its proprietary firmware has complete access to and control over the PC: it can power on or shut down the PC, read all open files, examine all running applications, track all keys pressed and mouse movements, and even capture or display images on the screen. And it has a network interface that is demonstrably insecure, which can allow an attacker on the network to inject rootkits that completely compromise the PC and can report to the attacker all activities performed on the PC. It is a threat to freedom, security, and privacy that can’t be ignored.
The arrival of the year 2010 triggered a bug in Symantec Endpoint. Symantec reported that malware and intrusion protection updates with "a date greater than December 31, 2009 11:59pm [were] considered to be 'out of date.'" The company created and distributed a workaround for the issue.[68] Scan evasion vulnerability
In March 2010, it was reported that Symantec AntiVirus and Symantec Client Security were prone to a vulnerability that might allow an attacker to bypass on-demand virus scanning, and permit malicious files to escape detection.[69][70][citation needed] Denial-of-service attack vulnerabilities
In January 2011, multiple vulnerabilities in Symantec products that could be exploited by a denial-of-service attack, and thereby compromise a system, were reported. The products involved were Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition Server and Symantec System Center.[71]
The November 12, 2012 Vulnerability Bulletin of the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) reported the following vulnerability for older versions of Symantec's Antivirus system: "The decomposer engine in Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) 11.0, Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition 12.0, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition (SAVCE) 10.x, and Symantec Scan Engine (SSE) before 5.2.8 does not properly perform bounds checks of the contents of CAB archives, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted file."[72]
The problem relates to older versions of the systems and a patch is available. US-CERT rated the seriousness of this vulnerability as a 9.7 on a 10-point scale. The "decomposer engine" is a component of the scanning system that opens containers, such as compressed files, so that the scanner can evaluate the files within.[citation needed] Scareware lawsuit
In January 2012, James Gross filed a lawsuit against Symantec for distributing fake scareware scanners that purportedly alerted users of issues with their computers. Gross claimed that after the scan, only some of the errors and problems were corrected, and he was prompted by the scanner to purchase a Symantec app to remove the rest. Gross claimed that he bought the app, but it did not speed up his computer or remove the detected viruses. He hired a digital forensics expert to back up this claim. Symantec denied the allegations and said that it would contest the case.[73] Symantec settled a $11 million fund (up to $9 to more than 1 million eligible customers representing the overpaid amount for the app) and the case was dismissed in court.[74][75] Source code theft
On January 17, 2012, Symantec disclosed that its network had been hacked. A hacker known as "Yama Tough" had obtained the source code for some Symantec software by hacking an Indian government server.[76] Yama Tough released parts of the code, and threatened to release more. According to Chris Paden, a Symantec spokesman, the source code that was taken was for Enterprise products that were between five and six years old.[76]
On September 25, 2012, an affiliate of the hacker group Anonymous published source code from Norton Utilities.[77] Symantec confirmed that it was part of the code that had been stolen earlier, and that the leak included code for 2006 versions of Norton Utilities, pcAnywhere and Norton Antivirus.[77] Verisign data breach
In February 2012, it was reported that Verisign's network and data had been hacked repeatedly in 2010, but that the breaches had not been disclosed publicly until they were noted in an SEC filing in October 2011.[78] Verisign did not provide information about whether the breach included its certificate authority business, which was acquired by Symantec in late 2010.[78] Oliver Lavery, Director of Security and Research for nCircle, asked rhetorically, "Can we trust any site using Verisign SSL certificates? Without more clarity, the logical answer is no."[79][80] pcAnywhere exploit
I had to try Firefox on Linux for a website, that was not compatible with the Opera web browser. Firefox on Linux does not clear the cookies it pretends to do so but it does not. I set it to custom settings for history and except third-party cookies from visited websites and clear them when "I close Firefox." that was the only option available. When opening to check its full of cookies. Google who I do not use ended up tracking me across the web with suggestions what I should purchase and what I have purchased using Firefox.
I remove Firefox and tried the Windows version. The Windows version comes with a Yahoo pup potentially unwanted program pop-up ads for Yahoo and Yahoo search very annoying Malwarebytes called it Yahoo Browser hijacker.
Makes me want to vomit. It is simply a mobile phone desktop.
People would not use that in a work environment even I would prefer to use Windows 7 then to use that mobile phone desktop. Am I getting old? or are these people just fuck up.
What happened yesterday? Linux mint 17 been working all these years perfectly today snoot error messages everywhere and log files complaining about systemd systemd compatible emulated?
Desktop no longer working. It must have slipped in as part of the updates? I will have to use one of the other computers to grab all the important documents and paid for products and unplugged the data drives and wipe the hard drive. What is systemd compatibility?
I have had to use a graphic workstation to post this. I cannot have a program that takes over the computer because the computer is then classed as a dirty system. Should I not have had a warning message about this before it made such a dramatic alteration.
Z840 workstation Windows 7 professional. I got it for graphic work every program I purchase spies on you. I have been using Linux for so many years I do not really know how to use Windows I just click icons. They tell me that if I only got pirate software then I would have been ok and I should never purchase Windows programs because of spyware. That seems crazy..
Corel says to remove the annoyance I should do this:
Open up PaintShop Pro Click on the Corel Guide. It will look like this: RtaImage98ce.jpg Click on the Product Information and Preferences icon to the right of the Messages tab Click on Message Preferences Uncheck Keep me informed with the latest product related messages Click OK
Next step is to delete the Messages folder
Hold down both the Windows® and R keys on keyboard When the Run box appears, release both keys Type: appdata in the Run text box Click the OK button Double click on the Roaming folder to open it Double click on the Corel Folder Highlight the Messages folder and press the delete button on your keyboard.
Adobe Photoshop Elements 14 says to use their program I must be logged on and I must log on to their website to use the program! Apparently I should not have purchased that I should have used the pirate version and then I would not need to log onto their website..
Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 365 will check for an Internet connection even when not in use to collect anonymous data about the program. Disabling it will cripple the program. Apparently I should only use a pirate version made available by somebody called CracksNow
CyberLink PowerDirector 14 (64-bit) tell me it is part of their copy protection and they collect no information.
I am really not liking this bloody Microsoft Windows business.
It cannot be good for business if it is more convenient to use pirate versions. I am not poor I can pay for it and I chose to pay for it and it seems I made a mistake by paying for it.
I personally just select spam option and set it to automatic delete. I believe I have 60 email addresses provided by some German company indirectly called 1&1 and I paid a company in Bitcoins to automatically register it. I think my registration name is Philip, and somebody else in Hollywood U.S. as a similar domain registration and he as owned that since the 1980s. I believe he was receiving demands to update his domain name when it should have been coming to me.. I have never owned a Gmail or Yahoo or any of those free? email addresses
What does it cost to have a customised email address peanuts. You have companies that specialises in registering alias domain names you pay them in Bitcoin's, and they register with a realistically sounding name and contact details it cost as little as $5 in the U.S. and they usually advertise themselves as "we protect your privacy." They will then send your pretend details to you so you can keep note.
Schizophrenia cannot be predicted by looking at the brains blood flow. Africans who settle in Europe have a unusual high proportion of sufferers of schizophrenia. Europeans who suffer from schizophrenia usually just hear voices in their heads talking about them or they believed that people on the television are talking about them. But Africans mostly hear voices telling them to do things to other people in other words they tend to be violent. nobody understands why Africans who suffer from schizophrenia are more often than not aggressive.

It was a constant struggle to correct all the mistakes that they had made.. In the U.K., the date goes like this 15/10/2017.
And then there are the obvious things like spelling you had to delete U.S. and install en-gb. you then had to find all the U.S. parts and delete them.
I found the product insulting and hated using it! the English are very tolerant and would say things like "oh it is Americans just copy the fix its on the list."

00 ME: Management Engine
First introduced in Intel’s 965 Express Chipset Family, the Intel Management Engine (ME) is a separate computing environment physically located in the (G)MCH chip (for Core 2 family CPUs which is separate from the northbridge), or PCH chip replacing ICH(for Core i3/i5/i7 which is integrated with northbridge).
The ME consists of an individual processor core, code and data caches, a timer, and a secure internal bus to which additional devices are connected, including a cryptography engine, internal ROM and RAM, memory controllers, and a direct memory access (DMA) engine to access the host operating system’s memory as well as to reserve a region of protected external memory to supplement the ME’s limited internal RAM. The ME also has network access with its own MAC address through the Intel Gigabit Ethernet Controller integrated in the southbridge (ICH or PCH).
The Intel Management Engine with its proprietary firmware has complete access to and control over the PC: it can power on or shut down the PC, read all open files, examine all running applications, track all keys pressed and mouse movements, and even capture or display images on the screen. And it has a network interface that is demonstrably insecure, which can allow an attacker on the network to inject rootkits that completely compromise the PC and can report to the attacker all activities performed on the PC. It is a threat to freedom, security, and privacy that can’t be ignored.
Endpoint bug
The arrival of the year 2010 triggered a bug in Symantec Endpoint. Symantec reported that malware and intrusion protection updates with "a date greater than December 31, 2009 11:59pm [were] considered to be 'out of date.'" The company created and distributed a workaround for the issue.[68]
Scan evasion vulnerability
In March 2010, it was reported that Symantec AntiVirus and Symantec Client Security were prone to a vulnerability that might allow an attacker to bypass on-demand virus scanning, and permit malicious files to escape detection.[69][70][citation needed]
Denial-of-service attack vulnerabilities
In January 2011, multiple vulnerabilities in Symantec products that could be exploited by a denial-of-service attack, and thereby compromise a system, were reported. The products involved were Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition Server and Symantec System Center.[71]
The November 12, 2012 Vulnerability Bulletin of the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) reported the following vulnerability for older versions of Symantec's Antivirus system: "The decomposer engine in Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) 11.0, Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition 12.0, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition (SAVCE) 10.x, and Symantec Scan Engine (SSE) before 5.2.8 does not properly perform bounds checks of the contents of CAB archives, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted file."[72]
The problem relates to older versions of the systems and a patch is available. US-CERT rated the seriousness of this vulnerability as a 9.7 on a 10-point scale. The "decomposer engine" is a component of the scanning system that opens containers, such as compressed files, so that the scanner can evaluate the files within.[citation needed]
Scareware lawsuit
In January 2012, James Gross filed a lawsuit against Symantec for distributing fake scareware scanners that purportedly alerted users of issues with their computers. Gross claimed that after the scan, only some of the errors and problems were corrected, and he was prompted by the scanner to purchase a Symantec app to remove the rest. Gross claimed that he bought the app, but it did not speed up his computer or remove the detected viruses. He hired a digital forensics expert to back up this claim. Symantec denied the allegations and said that it would contest the case.[73] Symantec settled a $11 million fund (up to $9 to more than 1 million eligible customers representing the overpaid amount for the app) and the case was dismissed in court.[74][75]
Source code theft
On January 17, 2012, Symantec disclosed that its network had been hacked. A hacker known as "Yama Tough" had obtained the source code for some Symantec software by hacking an Indian government server.[76] Yama Tough released parts of the code, and threatened to release more. According to Chris Paden, a Symantec spokesman, the source code that was taken was for Enterprise products that were between five and six years old.[76]
On September 25, 2012, an affiliate of the hacker group Anonymous published source code from Norton Utilities.[77] Symantec confirmed that it was part of the code that had been stolen earlier, and that the leak included code for 2006 versions of Norton Utilities, pcAnywhere and Norton Antivirus.[77]
Verisign data breach
In February 2012, it was reported that Verisign's network and data had been hacked repeatedly in 2010, but that the breaches had not been disclosed publicly until they were noted in an SEC filing in October 2011.[78] Verisign did not provide information about whether the breach included its certificate authority business, which was acquired by Symantec in late 2010.[78] Oliver Lavery, Director of Security and Research for nCircle, asked rhetorically, "Can we trust any site using Verisign SSL certificates? Without more clarity, the logical answer is no."[79][80]
pcAnywhere exploit
On February 17, 2012
I had to try Firefox on Linux for a website, that was not compatible with the Opera web browser. Firefox on Linux does not clear the cookies it pretends to do so but it does not. I set it to custom settings for history and except third-party cookies from visited websites and clear them when "I close Firefox." that was the only option available. When opening to check its full of cookies. Google who I do not use ended up tracking me across the web with suggestions what I should purchase and what I have purchased using Firefox.
I remove Firefox and tried the Windows version. The Windows version comes with a Yahoo pup potentially unwanted program pop-up ads for Yahoo and Yahoo search very annoying Malwarebytes called it Yahoo Browser hijacker.
56.0 Firefox Release September 28, 2017.
Makes me want to vomit. It is simply a mobile phone desktop.
People would not use that in a work environment even I would prefer to use Windows 7 then to use that mobile phone desktop.
Am I getting old? or are these people just fuck up.

What happened yesterday? Linux mint 17 been working all these years perfectly today snoot error messages everywhere and log files complaining about systemd systemd compatible emulated?
Desktop no longer working. It must have slipped in as part of the updates?
I will have to use one of the other computers to grab all the important documents and paid for products and unplugged the data drives and wipe the hard drive.
What is systemd compatibility?
I have had to use a graphic workstation to post this.
I cannot have a program that takes over the computer because the computer is then classed as a dirty system. Should I not have had a warning message about this before it made such a dramatic alteration.
Z840 workstation Windows 7 professional. I got it for graphic work every program I purchase spies on you. I have been using Linux for so many years I do not really know how to use Windows I just click icons. They tell me that if I only got pirate software then I would have been ok and I should never purchase Windows programs because of spyware. That seems crazy..
Corel says to remove the annoyance I should do this:
Open up PaintShop Pro
Click on the Corel Guide. It will look like this: RtaImage98ce.jpg
Click on the Product Information and Preferences icon to the right of the Messages tab
Click on Message Preferences
Uncheck Keep me informed with the latest product related messages
Click OK
Next step is to delete the Messages folder
Hold down both the Windows® and R keys on keyboard
When the Run box appears, release both keys
Type: appdata in the Run text box
Click the OK button
Double click on the Roaming folder to open it
Double click on the Corel Folder

Adobe Photoshop Elements 14
says to use their program I must be logged on and I must log on to their website to use the program!
Apparently I should not have purchased that I should have used the pirate version and then I would not need to log onto their website..
Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 365 will check for an Internet connection even when not in use to collect anonymous data about the program.
Disabling it will cripple the program. Apparently I should only use a pirate version made available by somebody called CracksNow
CyberLink PowerDirector 14 (64-bit) tell me it is part of their copy protection and they collect no information.
I am really not liking this bloody Microsoft Windows business.
It cannot be good for business if it is more convenient to use pirate versions. I am not poor I can pay for it and I chose to pay for it and it seems I made a mistake by paying for it.
I personally just select spam option and set it to automatic delete. I believe I have 60 email addresses provided by some German company indirectly called 1&1 and I paid a company in Bitcoins to automatically register it. I think my registration name is Philip, and somebody else in Hollywood U.S. as a similar domain registration and he as owned that since the 1980s. I believe he was receiving demands to update his domain name when it should have been coming to me.. I have never owned a Gmail or Yahoo or any of those free? email addresses
What does it cost to have a customised email address peanuts. You have companies that specialises in registering alias domain names you pay them in Bitcoin's, and they register with a realistically sounding name and contact details it cost as little as $5 in the U.S. and they usually advertise themselves as "we protect your privacy." They will then send your pretend details to you so you can keep note.
Schizophrenia cannot be predicted by looking at the brains blood flow.
Africans who settle in Europe have a unusual high proportion of sufferers of schizophrenia.
Europeans who suffer from schizophrenia usually just hear voices in their heads talking about them or they believed that people on the television are talking about them. But Africans mostly hear voices telling them to do things to other people in other words they tend to be violent. nobody understands why Africans who suffer from schizophrenia are more often than not aggressive.
