Thanks, PackRat, for posting this link. I totally forget that exchange from 9 years ago. The irony is I've succeeded in de-Googling my life, thanks to Linux and Graphene OS. If I lived in Europe, I probably would have switched whatever Android phone to /e/OS or bought a Fairphone with /e/ preinstalled.

Hello

Everything's fine; another 40 years like this, and then when I'm about a hundred, I'll give macOS a chance.

The Asian dude, creepy "The Ring"-ish avatar, amazing wit, not @glittersloth. What was his username?

Back to the OG...

If you're a clueless tard or azzhat, no don't post baseless nonsense in a babble tute I took my time to write. Basic common decency says don't take a cyber-crap in someone's how-to, ESP when x-person clearly doesn't have the slightest clue what they're talking about anyway. Man again ... just gotta call it done. Next time I think about posting here, will just step up to the nearest wall in my apartment and bang my head on the thing until I get a headache. Will be more rewarding, same headache, only more efficient as there will be less steps, less aggravation and typing involved. big_smile Ah anyway, my mistake won't happen again.

Response that ends the thread...
