I never said, I have an Android phone. I have an Android tablet.
Moron... and I had an iPad before, switched to Android as I assumed USB transfers "would simply work". But they don't. I actually explained most of the issues in my previous two posts.
Yeah, you are right about that. However if you want to write properly, you need to know the layout of each syllable. Perhaps they are straight forward, I never dug into that:D
The chlorine gas is not the problem, the O2 and H2 that is created by electrolysis while running the batteries is: it creates an explosive mixture called 'Knallgas".
Of course he did... just click back back back, till you find the post you originally answered too... he is an expert and you are a double noob. Noob in not realizing that he is an expert and a noob in not realizing meanwhile what nonsense you have posted.
Lol, don't call others clueless if you have no clue.
Many late war submarines had mini subs, manned torpedoes, supposed to be used as kamikaze torpedoes. Luckily most submarine commanders refused to utilize them.
That example is not an appeal to authority, but an illogical attempt for getting a conclusion. See the example: "Richard Dawkins, an evolutionary biologist and perhaps the foremost expert in the field, says that evolution is true. Therefore, it's true." This is simply plain dumb, and not a fallacy.
Ha. No, it's a clueless you issue. If you don't want autoupdates then just turn it off, it's entirely optional. Can't be switched off on my device.
And I just plain don't believe you about wrecking your preinstalled apps, you pulled that out of your ass. The notebook app can no longer create new notebooks, I can only edit old ones. The only trick to create new ones is to force quit it, and restart it, because then it ends up in a kind of home screen and there it lists all notebooks and has an option to add a new one.
Your bonus points are pretty pointless. Just because 80% of the users use Android does not make the OS better. What a stupid argument is that?
The usability of Android simply sucks. And my device is not even a year old, so it runs the latest OS and its upgrades: see above.
The worst thing is dictionary integration and that it needs internet access to load a a file from the downloads folder into the ebook reader, because the stupid design is: oh, he wants to read it in "Play books" lets upload it first into his "library in the google cloud" and then install it from there into the ebook reader... how moronic.
I wasted hours and hours to have something to read in the plane, and could not read the books because it could not open them, how retarded is that?
In relation to iOS it is simply a pile of shit, perhaps you should reread my previous post and try to comprehend it. I made like 5 points that super suck!
E.g. I installed that DroidScript App. Actually a nice thing. You can develop directly on the device, albeit in JavaScript. But: it requires FULL ACCESS to the filesystem. If it wanted it could delete my whole device. WHAT THE FUNK? There are apps that randomly switch the language, well not such randomly. If I switch my keyboard from english to german, some apps switch to german too. However they don't switch back if I switch back to english. And: I have to go into settings to change the language instead of having a nice icon on the keyboard directly.
And then again I installed termux, a "linux shell environment", that demanded file access, too. But for some strange reasons it can not access other applications files.
I transfered files, eBooks via USB onto the device. When I dropped them into the eBooks reader folder, the eBook reader does not see them. So I dropped them into the downloads folder. Guess what: the "download app" which you need to use to open files in the download folder in other apps, as e.g. in the ebook reader: does not know that there are new files transfered via USB. It obviously keeps its own "metadata database" which is only updated by downloads via Chrome, or by a restart!! HOW RETARDED IS THAT?
And you think Android is the best OS? WTF... iOS was annoying me. Android tries to kill me. So many super stupid bugs and flaws...
But I guess, you are to dumb to even grasp what I wrote above...
Yes, all of them. No idea why a product suddenly should last less. Unfortunately my latest purchase was 2014... a 2013 MacBook Air Model... perhaps that is to close to your 3-4 years mark?
The death rate for workers in the nuclear industry is the lowest of any of the energy generation industry. No it is not. It is the same as for roof top solar. As they both drive statistically the same amount of km to get to work And they both are statistically involved in the same amount of accidents.
That was my point.
The rest is just silly nitpicking by taking a random metric as death per kWh and trying to point out that nuclear is safer than coal. Which is bollocks, as people don't die to coal but to MINING!!!
You're irrational. No I'm not. Germany already got hit by a nuclear disaster. We lost half the countries harvest 3 or 4 years in a row. South of Germany is still unsafe to hunt game, especially boar and to eat mushrooms from the woods.
If that plant I mentioned before, Tiange in Belgium, would explode like Chernobyl (yes, we all know it can't) or like Fukushima (and yes we all know it CAN) then Germany ceases to exist! And that is not irrational, that is a fact!
So we have to get rid of all those old reactors immediately.
Building new nukes, better nukes, safer nukes: that is a complete different topic!
Earth resources, except oil, gas and coal, are not wasted. They simply go to a different place on the planet. The few metric tons that are in orbit or in outer space are not even a sand corn at a beach.
It's painless: you just pass out. Depends how you define "painless". You get a panic attack... not knowing what to do and how to escape: before you pass out.
Linux does not even have a decent application for reading emails... and no: Thunderbird does not cut it. I guess I could find a text only email reader that "just works", though.
Android is not better. It is just different. And its user interaction is explicitly designed in a way that if you switch from Android to iOS you feel lost and switch back. I would not wonder if iOS did the same.
Bottom line Android is just utter bullshit. Everything that works seamlessly on iOS either has flaws (like automatic detection of the language used when typing into/. ) or requires you to go into settings, to switch keyboard, or you can not open downlaoded ebooks, because they end up in "downloads" and you need to use the "download app" to open them, but then again they are not opened in the "Play Book app", and the Play Book app only can open content that is already saved in "downloads" when it has an internet connection.
Some word is red underlined because it is "in the wrong language", you see the typo, but can not place the curser there, because when you touch on it, the whole word is selected and a menu (completely useless menu) pops up. So you have to touch again besides the word, to deselect it, and then you can finally move the cursor to correct it. BOLLOCKS!!
Applications that are supposed to interact with others need full file system access, WTF? Other applications like termux, a linux command line "shell" for Android, can not access ANYTHING outside of its own folder.
Most Android devices don't mount as USB drives on Macs... WTF?
The long finger tab in eBooks simply don't work!! Instead of copying what iOS does every farking eBook reader has its own "hot spots" where you can issue commands...
It randomly autoupdates, wrecking several of my preinstalled apps, but well, that is a vendor issue... but it is an Google/Android issue that it is auto updating with out asking me for permission, which simply SUCKS!
Thy most likely mean that they increase the comprehension of the words, not necessary the topic. Then again, you most likely speed read about topics you already have some good overview about.
In other words: speed reading the news is rather easy. Speed reading about the connection between demotic, coptic and Egyptian hieroglyphs and the ancient greek language might make you stumble every third word.
Yes, slow the fuck down:D But more effective is, reading loud. Repeating short paragraphs, loud, once or twice. Rephrasing it with your own words, perhaps a bit shorter only containing the key concepts. Making a mental model "how stuff works", e.g. distinguishing between what (words), how (sentences) and why (laws?). Even more efficient, but probably expensive;D is: having someone else read aloud to you. You try to follow and make your mental model. You ask him/her to go back a few sentences or paragraphs and repeat.
Your Jiro most certainly knew what his name was. And then only *one* of the Kanji you propose will fit.
However Japanese like to play with words/sounds. A completely correct written short sentence (like 5 or 6 Kanji) might actually mean something completely different than is written there. Consider it a "wise" or "well read" mens puzzle.
E.g. Daito Ryu Aiki Jujutus, is a martial arts. Founded around WWI. The Kanji basically mean "Aiki based weapon less fighting school of the greater east". The original meaning however is a different one, but for political reasons (Korea and Taiwan at that time "belonged" to Japan) the founder of the art used a glorious sounding Japanese Kanji expression.
One concept of using "wrong Kanji" to explain something is called Ateji. Instead of using the Kanji for "Trash Bin" they write "Protect Beauty". Same sound, but different Kanji and obviously a different meaning... but everyone gets it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
E.g. Sanskrit texts are transliterated with a set of Kanji that are no longer in use in ordinary Japanese. They are amoung the most complex ones, discarded centuries ago. They are just "pictures" replacing Sanskrit consonant+vowel combinations.
Most Japanese sentences are a mix of kanji (mostly used for nouns) and hiragana used for grammar structures and verbs (that is simplified).
Kanji you simply memorize. There is no "deciphering" like reading a complicated english word as "deciphering". Kanji spring while reading into your mind just like spoken language. Your brain/mind does not even use the same brain area for reading them as you would in reading letters or hiragana/katakana (Kana).
The Korean have absolutely no advantage. Their script is a syllable script just like Hiragana/Katakana, albeit they have more syllables. In other words: they have (nearly) the same deciphering work to do as a english speaker reading english, or god forbid: german:D
You can write Japanese fully in Hiragana, btw. If you only know the sound of the words, aka the words, but no the Kanji, you write it in Hiragana.
Many Haiku are Hiragana only, however strict rules involve to have at least one, or two Kanji in a Haiku.
Wow, I'm impressed, the english spelling correction on the Mac realizes: Kana, Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji, and Haiku without complaints...

I did not make a mistake.
You nitpick that Linux is a kernel and that SUSE or UBUNTU is a Linux based OS.
Everyone --- obviously except you --- calls SUSE or UBUNTU simply Linux.
So: neither the kernel nor any distribution comes in my eyes with a decent eMail client ...
And they can run the stirling engines under water, capturing the exhaust and running it with compressed air or compressed O2.
They actually can run combat missions with the stirling engine on, they sunk in "war games" a Nimitz class carrier several times.
A Gotland vessel is boroughed out to the US Navy to figure ways how to detect/defeat them.
The chlorine gas is not the problem, the O2 and H2 that is created by electrolysis while running the batteries is: it creates an explosive mixture called 'Knallgas".

No it is not ...
But it not pronounced like the english boot, either, if that is your point.
The german boot is pronounced like the english bot, but with a very long "o".
Well, ...
I could use Emacs

Oh, a nitpicker ...
Nitpick, pick, pick. Are you a woodpecker pecking and picking all day?
If a person says "Linux" it obviously means the whole installation and not a random kernel.
Or since when does Windows, BSD, MacOS/OS X come as a kernel alone?
Pick pick, have fun picking ... little pecker.

Then you are wrong informed.
It is easy to read it up on wikipedia.
And no, you are double wrong informed, Hangul has nothing to do at all with Chinese characters.
You only need to memorize 24 "letters" to read and pronounce it. ... I'm to lazy to look up how many there are exactly.
Make that about 200

The alphabet consists of 14 consonants and 10 vowels. Its letters are grouped into syllabic blocks, vertically and horizontally.
