Hey Benny!

Deal with it.

I think "huh ?" is more appropriate in this case.

That doesn't work no matter how clever or not as the case may be.

Hey Benny!

i have been to much on tictok, and i have still parler installed

I have heard of tictok but not parler. Neither of them (nor facebook, twitter, etc) work on anything I have but I am sure some of my neighbours use at least facebook.

I have a 10" tablet I use for testing connections but it seldom gets used for actually hooking up to anything on the internet. I do have binkd I installed on there but even that only connects to one of the wireless hosts to drop off msgs. It could hook up over the internet I suppose but it doesn't. What for?

lets hope thay will be back

Where did they go?

Life is good,
Maurice

You don't have a (graphical) web browser on any of your devices?

Hey Wilfred!

devices?

Yes except it seldom gets used as I personally find these devices too annoying and lacking in anything I would use on a daily basis. I am replying to you using it as we speak. I prefer using a regular PC with the linux terminal. On them I just use a text based browser. :-)

Life is good,
Maurice

So your statement above was false...

Hey Wilfred!

No it wasn't. Just because there is a GUI browser doesn't mean that there are accounts to access whatever uses the browser to connect. Also no icons available for those services that I've ever seen on the tablet in question.

It does have termux and a customized binkd for it that *could* connect to a node out there in cybersapce but it doesn't. It just uses the wireless access points that are set up for fidonet, the one in particular sent the previous reply. This reply is being created on the access point itself where "Little Mikey's Brain" resides and it has a nodelisted internet address. No GUI browser on here.

Maurice

Yes it was. You have a gui browser at your disposal, so you could connect to facebook (and others) if you wanted to. There are no technical bariers...

Yes. But he did not say that there are technical barriers.

I do not work. That's not "i can't work".

I think that's an interesting point of expectation. The idea that a program that does not work or isn't running is because someone doesn't want to use it is not in the first minds possible reasons.

Hey Wilfred!

There are no technical bariers

Nothing to swipe or tap to make it so, therefore it doesn't really exist and is unlikely to ever exist given the total lack of concern over all of it. The barrier is more real than the access to said communications that probably will never, ever see the light of day in my time on the tablet in question.

Fidonet is doable. I could post another msg from it if ever matters. That does work.

Life is good,
Maurice
