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

There is Loops and Skylight.

I used to love that software!

Except for a handful, all federal politicians are bought and paid for and only serve the oligarchs. If money isn’t stripped from politics (see Citizens United), then USA will continue to degrade.

Yeah. There are a lot of typos.

Funny seeing this here. My brother just called me to tip me off to this exact article. I just finished reading it and had no idea any of this was happening. What a wild reality.

The general public truly are lazy consumer idiots, aren’t they?

Yes, of course they are!

I agree. I grew up using hard copy encyclopedias at libraries. It is incredible now to have all of this at our fingertips at home.

Can you give an example of an article with an error that you tried to correct?

This was 6 years ago so I cannot recall precisely which pages. However, I just skimmed over about 15 pages that I thought would be riddled with errors. To my surprise, I only found one instance where there was a ‘citation needed’ mark and could find no major errors…maybe a few little splitting hairs examples but nothing serious.

So, it appears that improvements have been made over the past 6 years. On the other hand, I only looked over roughly 15 pages.

Probably the same caution would be true for any encyclopedia. Namely, these can be pretty good starting points but not for serious scholarly research.

My self and others in this field tried for about 6 months to no avail. We gave up…they didn’t want to hear it.

I have studied academic biblical scholarship for over 30 years. All of Wikipedia’s biblical pages are riddled with errors. IMO, Wikipedia is a decent starting point but that would be it.

I’m in the exact same boat as you.

Thank you for the informative and thoughtful comment. I appreciate it.
