Hay, I found the guy who divided by zero.

No, we’re good here in the armpit of NY.

I wish FR would research ways to make accessing the forums a bit easier on mobile devices.

Mobile devices are themselves hit or miss.
The budget Android phones have problems, and not every internet capable phone is capable of all websites for various reasons.
It is, by and large, an issue of the phone software itself.
Not every site can be optimized for every phone out there.

Not very helpful, I know.

I picked up a Galaxy S II this spring, just recently I started using it to access FR and even to post comments. Of course its slow typing on a cell phone even though its does have a fast processor, its just the fact I have to constantly expand the screen to see anything, too much on a single page.

But I do enjoy pissing off the grammar nazis when I do post comments.

“Of course its slow typing on a cell phone “

Watched a guy I know do that.
He kept saying, “Not ‘S’! I didn’t hit ‘S’! Why do you keep thinking I hit ‘S’?!”
He had wide fingers and he was typing on a screen the size of an iphone.

But yeah, formatting for phones is... fun.
If you format for one phone, another doesn’t like it and will garbage the view up.

My phone will access the web ten times faster than the current puter I have. To be a true blue right wing patriotic soldier I must become mobile, my next purchase may be a decent tablet to compliment the phone which has its own WiFi hotspot, I just learned how to tether it to another device.

Grab the accessory keyboard for the tablet.
Onscreen keyboards suck, and you run less of a risk of scratching your screen.

As I was reading this thread, I saw a crawler on Fox and Friends that said simply: Internet Down:” They said something about talking about it later, then they went to break. By the way, no problems here in my part of New Mexico.

I bought some screen plastic covers, some exotic stuff from Japan, you cannot tell its there hardly, the one I have on is still very good even though I am using greasy fingers at work swiping on it.

The whole plan is to be mobile and not too too easy to track down. I won’t go into the software thats used by CSI to triangulate cellphones. If the Obama stormtroopers really want to track down the patriotic dissenters I may just spread some bread crumbs for them.

They just talked about the “Internet Down” crawler. Had nothing to do with the internet being currently down. Seems the FBI is warning people of a Malware that can affect people’s computers starting next Monday. They mentioned this site for info and to test and see if you have the Malware: http://www.dcwg.org/

_____________________________________________

The Internet is the biggest catch 22 in history.
Despite all of the wonders of the Internet, it has radically changed society as much, or more, then anything in history, and much of it for the worse.

My life is totally different then it would be if there had been no Internet.
My international living started with the Internet, otherwise I would still be back on my farm in west Tennessee.
