A computer phone is called a "modem". It makes an awful racket

It's ok to talk to your internet. You should only be worried when it responds.

I have my assistant curate a set of posts I might find interesting and then dictate my response to them. A person is basically a biological computer though so I voted PC browser

Remember when tablets were supposed to completely replace PC's/Laptops for a short time there around 2008? I'm glad that happened.

Yeah I guess, though I'd say laptops/pcs per capita use has still gone up from that time since if you want to do any kind of actual work you need a keyboard and a decent screen. Using a tablet/phone just doesn't cut it for anything but loving around.

I don't think I've ever felt the need to delete the browser history on my phone. Only lame boring things transpire when one surfs with a telephone

My computer though, holy poo poo!! I format the hard drive daily

This is a really good idea. Is there a printer / all in one thread? I haven't kept up with the latest offerings from Lexmark
