on computers

Maybe. Maybe not.

I'm guessing not. But that's just a hunch.

If you reported something you think is suspicious and nothing was done... Move on.

I mean sure, that’s a possibility. I remember prank calls when I was a kid and before Verizon had the Star69 on their systems for reverse tracking. I mean Steve Jobs pranked called The Pope.

You may also need some internet awareness too about things to watch for or red flags. In our company we do mandatory training for our users every 6 months so they don’t get scammed from phone calls or emails.

Whoever it was claimed to be a 13 year old girl. Where did you get 21?

Thnx for the help. I worked different kind of electronics high power Rf design mostly class C amplifiers PHI in Torrance, Ca sub of M/A-COM from Massachusetts. Used computers for design work Touchstone Program run on DEC computer 1987. Relatively complex too.....technology we have is in my opinion not conducive to healthy living or society as God intended. 2nd Advent we will probably be busy restoring to Gods' way...Garden of Eden. Millennium enough time to clean up this mess?

Uh... If this tech is not conducive to Godly living, what in the world are you doing using it to be on a forum?

I do hope you didn't lose too much sleep over this last night. I know I slept pretty well.

Seriously: You thought there was a problem, you reported it, and that should be the end of the story from your end. Go do something else. Read a book. Eat a brownie. Pet a cat. Read a different thread on the forum.

Thnx for your concern. A brownie! Sounds good to me.....unfortunately my cat died about a yr ago.....listened to some Charles Spurgeon.....my eyes are already tired from all the screen time......my sleep patterns have been erratic all my life.....Oncefallen appears to be casting NASTERSIUMS and making accusations and placing blame where it seems management should show concern so this needs resolution and my original message was to RoboOp and as yet received no reply. Also no brownie but PB&honey on crackers and aren't you and I involved with nutritional aspects of sugars and the types of sugar and you recommend brownies. For shame.

No idea why Oncefallen would throw flowers at you,.. but he is doing his job well, especially for somebody who's not getting paid.

He certainly is showing a lot more patience with you than I would have had. Which is the main reason I would not want to be a moderator. I wouldn't have the patience for this crap.

Yes I was talking about sccm deployments and intune deployments using standard packaging tools like flexera admin studio.

This is common stuff that everyone should know.

So yeah, about computers... I have a confession to make. I haven't run a Linux distro in about half a year now.

I know, I know...

I tried out a different ISP with pretty good prices, but low hotspot caps. So during this trial I set my phone on a stand with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse as my primary internet interface. No hotspot, no worries.

The ISP trial was disappointing, because it was with a T-Mobile MVNO (Mint Mobile) and T-Mobile tower placement in this area is very inconvenient for me. I moved on to an AT&T MVNO (Red Pocket) and it looks like I'll be with them for life. But the phone-as-primary-internet-interface stuck. I'm using it now to type this post.

I even gave to somebody else the dino laptop I was using to run Linux Mint from a flash drive.

Do I have to turn in my nerd card? I still have Linux Mint on a low profile flash drive, and I can boot it on my windows computer if I need to format a hard drive or something.

Wait wait wait, you’re telling me that you’ve been running Windows for the past 6 months?
Why would you engage in such sinful behavior?

Are you streaming your phone in a larger screen like a TV by the way or are you reading on the phone with your keyboard and mouse?

Also what are the prices in Tennessee for internet? In the Massachusetts /north east area you could get gigabit internet for around $60 a month.

You streaming your phone to your tv somewhere?

I don't use a traditional home internet connection. My phone IS my internet connection. So mobile data caps matter.

For people who rely mostly on a home internet connection and blow up hundreds of gigabytes a month on Netflix and Hulu, it would be slightly impractical.
