If you are sufficiently wealthy in the US, you can afford what we have as routine in Europe, which is healthcare. In the US, there are many who cannot afford insurance, and even with insurance, the policy is unlikely to cover your needs, especially for anything other than acute care.

Plays flac. Hopefully the player will be able to output to external DAC bypassing Androids resampling machine (in the future).

How can an Indian origin man even consider supporting Trump? The answer is pure unadulterated greed to the exclusion of real families. Or, sheer stupidity!

I tried to watch this video. Wow It’s dumb. All speculation, no science. Perhaps it’s a spoof that I don’t appreciate.

All these damn migrants coming here and impososing their rules!

In any scenario the brand of smart TV is irrelevant as thet all impair your privacy. Cost and effort are sadly now a feature, but not too much of a challenge. Never connect your TV to the internet directly. The easiest step is a Chromecast. I recently needed to replace my dumb TV with a smart TV. For me I just bought a TV at a price point that allowed me to also buy a used old PC box plus a wireless keyboard a touchpad. You could alternately use a Raspberry Pi. Either way, you ultimately have control of what is shared or escapes for your privacy.

What would we suggest as a realistic alternative? Sears? Startpage? Brave? (I am no expert by the way, just looking for tips)

Zee boosh should be much lower down brother

Thanks for the guidance. Bromite now replaced with Cromite. Mull remains my primary browser based upon comments. Also, far better experience already

When you are trying to remove inflammation from an area I.e. twisted ankle, you need to cool it as much as possible. That reduces the spread of inflammation and this includes reducing blood flow. Do that for a day or two after an acute injury or surgery, maybe longer to prevent inflammation. Once the tide of inflammation is under control, you can use heat to get that blood flow back and to allow removal of breakdown products and to bring in more blood to heal. There are situations where you will alternate between hot and cold but usually not with an acute injury.

All about the buzz

I dumped Windows for Linux bout 12 years ago, but because I wasn’t too sure, I didn’t do the jump all in one go. I spent about 12 months “dual booting”. What this means is that you install linux to a USB / pen drive (Mint seems a great option). Once you’ve installed Mint to a USB drive, you can boot your Windows machine into Linux Mint from that USB drive. That will give you the chance to poke around and try it out as often as you like. Just remember that it won’t be as fast as it would be if you installl to your hard drive. If you like it, then you can install it alongside your Windows system. This is dual booting. When you power up your laptop or PC, you get to choose whether you boot into Windows or Linux. All this was quite daunting for me at the time, as I wasn’t “techy”. But quite quickly I’d become quite comfortable as it is easy once you’ve done it. There are a range of tutorials online about creating a bootable USB drive with Linux and how to get your machine to boot from it. My best advice is to give that a try.

With a costs loss minimisation strategy, sadly, the worst case scenario will not affect this financial behemouth.

I have no idea (yet) what I’ll do when I buy one.

There are a range of ways to have multiple distro’s on a single USB if they fit, but really, this is something you should just try for yourself. I did the same and ended up trying all sorts. Icurrently have a USB drive with Mint and Puppy. Mint for when I want to have a full distro and Puppy for everything else. Me personally, I find Puppy the simplest , fastest and easiest on any machine without buckefsfull of RAM. It even works on my really old laptop with 1GB.

The gold standard is to flash a new ROM, but a lot of people dont’t want to, or cannot because either the phone won’t allow (Samsung etc) or it is too daunting. Next we had ADB commands via terminal (hello hours in the terminal). UAD in isolation might seem daunting, but compared to the alternatives, it it is a heaven sent gift, and I’m not even religious.

UAD is the only easy option, but if not sure, read more online so you know what it all looks like. My personal advice before using UAD, is to (1) make a list of the apps you’ve installed and want to keep (2) Reset the phone to factory settings or at least turn off any screen lock, sim lock or other locks (3) Check for phone software updates and install those (don’t bother with the Play store updates) (4) Set up Developer options (search how and what to change to allow UAD) (5) Run UAD (6) Install any apps you use and enjoy.

Try Parrot OS, Home edition. Smooth, reliable, does everything well and super easy to add your favourite opensource software. It’s flagged as a security distro, but it’s actually a highly rated Distro without any of that

A touch harsh, but possibly accurate. I’m still furious that we have people who still think it was a good idea. Those people blame the imoact of Brexit on the poor handful of people arriving here as migrants. Then double down by saying thar if it hadn’t of been for the migrants, they wouldn’t have voted Brexit. Sorry, rant over.

Oh gooodie! When can I sign up to gift more data (sarcasm)
