Wouldn’t that be refreshing?


That’s why I said “set in stone” time. Like how most people envision time as a clock.


That’s interesting. I like that analogy.


Oh, look at Mr. “I took advanced physics” over here!



I took advanced physics in college. An easy way to understand time as only a human construct is the following. Time is a measure of distance between objects. Those distances are always changing so there is no “set in stone” type of time in reality.


I’m sorry to hear that. Very sad.


Using a free listener supported radio app that is curated by human DJs has been how I’ve enjoyed music for years now. Examples are KEXP, The Current and Radio Paradise.


Good thing I don’t use it.


Yeah. Automatic is an incredible album.


IMO there are too many to list here. Some honorable mentions are R.E.M. - Murmur, The Stone Roses, The Cure - The Head on the Door.


I listen to KEXP about six hours every day. Incredible station.


Their software is getting less stable with each release, while the amount of crammed in features is going up.
I agree that you may be having this personal experience. On the other hand, I am not and have been using iOS for many years. The difference could be that I intentionally stay very informed about iOS.
I, personally, will not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
However, if you believe that you will have better experiences using Android, then please make the switch.
Back in 2007 (After many years of making a career out of using Microsoft/Windows products) I started using Linux and MacOS/iOS exclusively and have never looked back.
I have very little experience and/or knowledge of Android. So, I can’t comment on that.


Would you, please, explain why you are considering switching from iOS to Android?


How could I forget about the utility of our public library!?!?! Thanks for the reminder and take care.


But it doesn’t help that I live in a conservative area that doesn’t have many intellectual or techy people. I will probably end up driving to a big city for a once or twice a month meeting.
Soon I will have to be doing the same. It’s a little over an hour drive one way. Do you have any recommendations about how to find an interest group?


He was an absolute disgusting human:
His career ended after he was sentenced to 29 years’ imprisonment in 2013 for multiple sex offences, including the sexual assault of young children and infants, and the possession of child and animal pornographic material
This probably will end up being the case for most people
