Reply to Windows 11 - Not For Me... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

[quote who="naroon1" reply="54" id="3866890"]For me an operating system does not need to be Interesting, It is a Tool and no more important than any other tool a peep may have in another kind of toolbox. I choose Win 11, not in a comparative way with Win 10 as they are similar, but to be current for my job. I could not do my Job if i only used Win 10 exclusively, plus could not give any assistance in my forum connected to Win 11 without it.[/quote] <div class="

I've been geeking out on operating systems since DOS and I'd be very happy to get into Windows 11, but I just can't find anything interesting about it.

Reply to Social Media: The New Status Quo in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

FWIW I find Facebook very flexible, meaning I have it setup so that I see the sorts of posts I'm interested in and block from my "feed" stuff that I'm not. I think part of the problem is configuring Facebook is complicated and that by default it shares a lot of user's personal information. It's possible though to hide pretty much everything you don't want others to see or know about yourself once you learn how to manage the settings. As for Zuckerberg I don't see how he's co

There's a tendency to view it as impractical, but we didn't get where we are without curiosity.

Far better to repurpose some of the Mall spaces, which may in turn reinvigorate the Malls generally. It's depressing to see a once thriving Mall become abandoned, and it's bad for the economy too.

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="320" id="3833636"] The vaccinations cause antibodies specific to Covid alpha strain's (the first Covid-19) connector stalks. Delta had mutations in those weakening those specific antibodies which were specific to alpha. Omicron had even more mutations. Thus, despite having antibodies to alpha through illness or vaccination, one can contract Corona repeatedly.
