Russia was bombing civilian targets from the start.

Yeah, I just glanced at the top few drives I've pulled from my three NAS (bigger drive in there now) - two 500gb and a 4tb.

I've also got a ps3 sitting around, so maybe some weekend fun since I haven't touched it in years.

That is about the most generic statement possible, with nearly zero knowledge of what I'm doing on yours.

So... What problem? Feel free to enlighten me.

Eh, I'd say mostly.

I have one right now that looks at data and says "Hey, this is weird, here are related things that are different when this weird thing happened. Seems like that may be the cause."

Which is pretty well within what they are good at, especially if you are doing the training yourself.

A dumb phone and a feature phone are not the same thing, and a feature phone may connect to the internet.

Which is why dumb phones and feature phones aren't common anymore, and the people choosing them are specifically choosing it to avoid being available via WhatsApp/Signal/Slack/Discord/Teams/whatever else.

My FIL for example has a clamshell feature phone, because he doesn't want to be reached except by phone or SMS. He doesn't want to read email or get messages on his phone, he wants to restrict that to when he's in front of his computer.

So yes, you would not be able to use messaging clients on a dumb phone, that's the idea behind their use today.

...so you just made it up then.

No, the phone industry made up these terms.

No one has done that. The only comments I'm downvoting are the ones spreading disinformation.

So how I read that is "Anything that isn't what I want it to say is disinformation".

Well, enjoy your day buddy, my participation in this thread is over. Its a neat feature phone, and that's where I'll be leaving that.

Several decades of phone technology as it developed...

Edit: and why are you just down voting everyone replying providing you with info?

While I get your opinion, these things have definitions. Here's a super simple version:

• A dumb phone does not connect to the internet. Its a phone. Just a dumb device.
• A feature phone is what you're referring to here, where it may connect to the internet, but isn't part of some larger ecosystem and is certainly not an app-first approach. Its a phone first, ancillary features are a bonus.
• Smartphones are your android and iOS devices, which connect to the internet, is part of a large ecosystem of applications, is an internet first oriented device, etc.

So yes, this is a feature phone from what I've read of the translation.

I played games on channel 3.

I installed dos on an IBM model 30 286 with a stack of 3.5" floppies.

The apple 2e's in school were great for playing games.

The Mets had a good years playing baseball when I was little.

Yeah, that's a pretty substantial improvement to what we have in the US.

Perfect shouldn't be the enemy of good.

It will take a lot longer to get proper gun control in place in the US. We've already got the GOP and their "Well it sucks, but too bad, move on" rhetoric going.

There is no reason not to minimize risk during the time it will take, even to get to where we we were 20 years ago.
