An Android tablet that you then root and run a normal Linux on? You can do this with some models, though unfortunately not all.

There are also some laptops that have detachable screens which then essentially turn into tablets.

@taylorlorenz
You can't do that without @cwebber at least

Switch to PPP over infrared.

It's the least reliable Internet connection I've ever had but it can't be worse than this...

I think that statement made the person who said that, whoever it is, be the person who looks bad, and you sir are far too kind a human being for not publicly naming and shaming them 🙂

@tiikerikani
+1. Soooo agree.

I had a bot yesterday going 'if this answered your question, you can just hang up', which I thought implied I'd get an actual human on the line afterwards if I stuck around, but no! The bot just hung up on me.

So I had to call back and choose a random different option in the menu. At least that did give me a human and the problem was resolved...

@zhenech
Yes, it could've been worse indeed

@meluzzy
You can also buy laptops with Linux installed from major laptop manufacturers these days. Dell and Lenovo, at least.

When you do, it works well.

'als maar kan' literally means 'as but can', but the sentence idiomatically translates to 'as corrupt as possible'

Try managing it when you move servers.

My current Algo:

- Get the new server
- Add the new server to SPF, and add it as low-prio MX (but don't run anything on port 25, yet)
- wait a month
- cross fingers
- pray to the gods of email. Like, *really* hard
- switch servers, but keep the old server around, just in case
- monitor results
- if problems occur: switch back and fix

They'll do what they did after the dot com bubble burst: GTFO, wait a decade or so, come back and do it all over again

The msdn article mentions that superscript digits are recognised as digits and therefore also illegal, but your repository doesn't have them.

COM¹.txt (and 2, 3 but my phone doesn't allow me to type those in superscript) should be in it too.

Just remember what happened in Hawaii in the late 19th century: non Hawaiian citizens were allowed to vote and even run for elections, which then resulted in the Hawaiian government being overtaken from within by American ministers who were loyal to the US, not to the kingdom of Hawaii.

Allow non citizens to vote, sure, but within reason!
