1 day agoYeah, they’re the only ones…
Since I invariably wind up getting “name suits” types of comments, here’s the explanation behind it:
Around the turn of the millennium, I was trying to come up with a username to use on a particular site that had a shortish character count limit for usernames. My goal was something related to the fact that I would often be making my points in arguments with “holier-than-thou” types by taking what they were saying, and turning it on its head so the offensive stuff was directed back at them.
I also happened to learn shortly beforehand that many years ago “'ape” was somewhat commonly used as a verb to mean “imitate” or “copy.”
I’m sure you can figure the rest out.

1·2 days agoWell, you’re obviously either not terribly well-grounded in reality considering how many times I was patient enough to answer what was effectively the same question - never mind that it’s perfectly reasonable to ask for proof when accused of something, or more likely you’re a poor excuse for a troll. Either way, I’ve got better things to do than feed whatever your neurotic issue is, so I’ll be blocking you. Good luck with finding the mental health assistance you obviously are in need of.
Please point out where I got “mad.”
Wow, I’ve really got to spell it out for you, huh? Azure Linux will not be exempt - Microsoft will add the required routines to it, and if they are the only ones to do so, then they soak up the server market in CA.
ETA: I doubt that will wind up being the case as other commercial vendors will not want to be left behind, but we were discussing the theoretics.
If the only server OS legally capable of running in CA is Microsoft’s - be it Windows, or their particular spin of Linux - guess who’s gonna sop up all that government contract money?
And there’s nothing keeping them from adding it themselves for their own in-house use & profit.

I’ll have to add my wish that strangers would buy me things I want to my Amazon wishlist.
Hmm, wonder if Bluetooth (D)DoS attacks are a thing.
Turn off “debug” in the app settings to stop that & have it only report suspect devices instead of everything it sees.
Sorry - edited my comment as you were replying. It’s in the app’s settings menu.
It’s supposed to ask for Bluetooth access at that point, did it?
Also from the GitHub page:
if you don’t see the scan starting, you might need to enable Foreground Service on your particular phone in the Settings menu [in the app’s settings, not the phone’s]

It’s only going to keep getting worse until it somehow blows up in some way huge enough to get the vast majority of morons to actually care enough to fight it. I unfortunately have little hope for that happening in my lifetime.
