now we have idiot lights for people, they will be vague alarms to get you to go to the doctor so they can charge you a bunch of money for routine stuff that dont amount to anything,
yeah, i am a little overweight, yeah i have arthritis, yeah my blood pressure is a little high, i am getting close to 60 years old and i could die today, or next week, or maybe by the end of the year, or i could live another 10 years, i dont need a doctor getting rich off of me to tell me that
i seen reviews of that phone on youtube and thought they were decent phones, with a nice clean android install without third party bloatware that can not be uninstalled (are you listening samsung) i almost bought one but BestBuy was out of stock so i settled for another Samsung phone which is a nice phone but some things annoy me like not being able to completely uninstall facebook, (only disable it)
install Linux, problem solved, tell all the users they need to brush up on their computer skills and quit surfing porn for 6 months, that should give them time to learn their way around the basics of using Linux for a desktop workstation operating system, libreoffice or openoffice whatever the user chooses,
they rather you go buy a new D-Link Router, if i had one of these routers i would be sure to buy another brand, but if D-Link quickly made a new firmware and patched my router it would give me confidence in D-Link's attention to detail and would gladly make my next router a D-Link product, (something to think about D-Link people)
and net neutrality restored and all of Ajit Pai's work inspected for any other improprieties, and if things look worse prosecute Ajit Pai for anything worthy of prosecution
i am neither a conservative or liberal, there is few redeeming qualities in both of those ideologies, i consider myself an independent and a little bit of a libertarian, i notice that a lot of times conservatives accuse me of being a liberal and liberals accuse me of being a conservative, i guess i am doing something right if i piss off both parties
and was driving home with the phone still in the box it came in, and it did not even have a sim card in it yet and the damn thing kept making noise like those Emergency Broadcast System warning sounds you hear on TV & radio, so i get home, take the phone out of the box and turn it on (it was off and getting those warnings) and there was several amber alerts on it, from Tulsa Oklahoma, and i bought the phone in Norman Ok, and was driving south east to go home, Tulsa was over 150 miles away from me, all those emergency alarms got shut off when found them in the settings, the only one i could not shut off was the Presidential Alarms,
they dont actually want to fix anything, they like seeing a world full of problems, then they have something to complain and rant about, if things were actually being improved they would have less to bitch about. i hope they get to make this super-chick pea plabt in to a big success

The bible is the story of a very, very incompetent supreme being. He made so many mistakes in his perfect creation that he had to kill everyone on it.. and then did it again.
Makes 2 humans and puts them in a garden of eden, but places them right next to the thing that will screw all that up and does nothing to prevent it, then blames them and all their progeny for all time for something thats his fault.
Makes a magic rule book thats so vague and open to interpretation that there are now 30,000 sects of christianity alone all of which disagree with each other. And he allows many other holy books and does not give any of us a clue as to which one are right and which ones are wrong, proceeds to let us kill each other by the millions over it. He has the power to appear at any time to stop all the killing, chooses not to.
Claims to be supreme being, but still has needs (to be worshiped), desires (to have a son) and failings (he is angry and jealous quite often).
Claims he gave us free will, then gives us a list of rules we must follow or else he will torture us forever... which goes completely against the notion of us having free will (you have free will but you must do as I say) and proving that he has no morality at all since he is offering infinite punishment for finite crimes. And his own morality is lower than the morality of secular society, which is weird since you'd think an all knowing all seeing supreme being would have known that slavery was immoral even thousands of years ago. maybe he could have even put that in his list of commandments, instead of say 'thou shalt have no other gods before me'?
Goes through an elaborate scheme of self sacrifice to change rules that he could have changed at any time without the torture and sacrifice of himself. And again why would a supreme being come up with rules so flawed in the first place that they needed to be changed after the fact?
First you have to prove gods are real, then you have to prove its your god.
yes, you are right, despite my comment being logical and reasonable, whoever modded me down as flamebait proves you are right and the mod point system is divisive and whoever modded me down can go eat a bag of dicks
with freedom of speech also comes responsibility for what you say, thats what moderation points do, if someone is blathering insane nonsense or filthy talk then you know they are going to be modded down to oblivion, on the other hand say something brilliant or insightful or just funny with a touch of brilliance or insight then you know those comments are going to be modded up, do you need to be reminded of that basic concept???
i used it some around the turn of the century then got interested in Linux and Pegasus is a windows app so i forgot about it for years until this email client thread opened up, just did a google search and the last stable release was 4.72 (21 April 2016; 2 years ago)
and they made religions obsolete, and made the nation state with governments obsolete, and made military and police obsolete, and turned this planet in to a utopia, or on the other hand a planet with human slaves mining resources so they can take them to their home planet
walmart.com has less than half the stuff amazon.com has and the website is terrible, if you select to shop for only items at your local store they dont omit the only only stuff, so if you want to see what is in the store before you get in the car and drive to the store it is pointless, i refuse to shop there anymore, because their website is such a screwed up kludge,
until the CPU manufacturers resolve this issue, if necessary will scour craigslist and second hand PC shops and buy used junk for cheap, no more high dollars spent on new desktops & laptops & tablets & phones until this CPU vulnerability issue is resolved in a proper and long term way

it was brand new, i never even turned it on yet. i was still using my old phone and was driving home
get a faraday bag to put your phone in, it will shield your phone from all incoming RF so it wont get anything

i use Seamonkey suite, it is a browser & email client, and a basic bare bones WYSIWYG html editor and IRC client, (the emacs of the browser world)
or else why not call it GNU/GPL/FOSS/Linux

and a blank line to separate paragraphs is a good idea too
and nitpicking over starting the first world in each new sentence with a capital letter is stupid. but double space after the period and comma is good
they look like qood quality phones, small and lightweight, slim but it only does phone calls and the #2 version will include text msgs,
