Re: Bitcoin will crash

Now I see I have your attention ! I'm sure we could work something out.

"Smart phones and tablets - Too little, too late"

I think enough phone buyers that had a choice of platforms, purposely avoided windows on a mobile. People had had to deal with Windows at work, Windows at home, and picked something different.

"Gates said if Microsoft had got that right, it would be the leading company in the world, not just one of the leaders."

I think saying we could have been the one, had I thrown more cash at it, is wishful thinking on Mr. Gates part. I don't see how missing the boat with Windows would help with a mobile OS.

Re: A bridge under which to harvest scum, with a special fishing rod.

I was wondering along the same lines, sort of... But I see headlines about violent offenders(killers, rapists) getting far less time in the US. Seems there is a huge disparity in how sentences are calculated and assigned, I guess chalk this up to Judges being people, people with an agenda (their own or someone else's)?

Re: Anyone surprised?

The gubbermints are all too large now. I fear the end of days is upon us. Vote somebody else in, when they get a whiff of the power, corruption reigns supreme.

I think anybody who wants to be Prez or PM should automatically be removed from the race.

" a lot of Android apps simply don't work if you refuse permissions"

This was my exact experience on holiday in the US, funny how the simcards in the US wouldn't work in my iPhone, so, I bought a cheapo AT&T phone at the corner shop, had android. I'm still finding google calendar issues two years later, calendar says I'm only working two days this week!!!

It's called Creeper weed... Ask any pro...

It was until I learned what an "influencer" means.

Awesome song! Dude! Written by Kris Kristofferson, speaking of country or western, Willie Nelson covered this song too, not as country or western sounding as you'd think.

Don't forget KR and The First Edition 'Cherokee Nation'

I wonder what steered him to Nashville\Branson??

Re: Nice write up! Excellent fact checking!

We had people calling us saying that ourdomain.com and .net etc were available and someone wanted to buy them, and we needed to act FAST to protect our ourdomain.other and buy these ASAP, call before midnight tonight! Deal expires today!

Haar, je keneet scam me, I've had 5 calls this week from M$ support alerting me to problems with my system, fun times! I'm not buying lots of look-a-like domain names. If anything, I've got parts of a bridge in Russia you might be interested in...
