Try and rest where you can.

@scottalanmiller Is this one that you can take globetrotting with you?
-
One what?
-
@scottalanmiller The internet dish? Is that something you can drag around with you or will that only be for the current stop? -- or was that something completely different and I missed a bunch of posts somewhere?
nb: I just now noticed the quote button and will be using it in future posts, lol.
-
Oh, no and it isn't satellite, it's a terrestrial dish. It's for long haul WiMax. The tower is about ten miles away. It's part of the house. Can't lug that stuff around, it's part of the house.

Switched from using google to DuckDuckGo a few days ago. I'm noticing I'm consistently getting better results. many times it's even the first or second link that I need. Never happened with google.
-
I've noticed better results from both DuckDuckGo and Yahoo quite often. Google seems to sometimes provide nothing but ads, in fact.

Yeah. I'm kinda ditching google as a whole anymore. Part of the reason I bought office 365 is I want to move away from Gmail.

OMG, I hate Gmail!

The fact that they started even putting targeted ads in the mobile gmail app was the last straw for me. And they are trying to force the Google Inbox thing which I don't like to automate email thinking it knows what important to you. I like folders and rules, the inbox thing just makes me miss important stuff.

I like Gmail... but I don't like the targeted ads in the mobile app. I've started using the Zoho mail app... working pretty well so far.

I'm actually to a point I can't read the email there because it is so poorly filtered. Gmail is definitely only useful for people not reading their mail. It's the most incompetent email interface I've ever encountered.

I couldn't get folders to sync properly between the site, Outlook and my phone.

Just had a recruiter reach out to me about an OpenVMS job! Wow, I love VMS, but can't believe that it is still running anywhere. Haven't really used that since 1995.

Wow. I've seen old accounting systems on it, but never seen it actively being used anymore.

System I or whatever is still used for Datacenter processing of transactions. It uses a Reason cpu so not just anything can run on it. Though some linux kernals can.
-
It's very similar to the old powerPC mac cpu's expect it's dual core and 64bit now days.

Good morning people!

Morning Joy!
