I use my wife's excellent camera to take pictures of stuff I wish to sell on ebay , or book covers or warship and aircraft models for internet forum use
( I am a boring guy ) -
so when I come to use the Post to Facebook option then I try to type in a few words - on the posting - and the mechanism ' suggests ' words - that I don't want or need , but inserts them anyway , so I have to re-type the word again - maddening

I also totally agree , I get a big kick out of young people that are supposed to be dating -
or having a Hotel breakfast as a ' family ' that are totally in a trance on a mobile phone -
and oblivious to their partner or family
I get weird looks like I am a moron or a savage -
when I admit I don't own one of the damn things

I also frankly , now ignore the ' new ' members who join - ask a few questions
and then disappear into the ether -
the level of un-interest into how much work is involved in posting new content
is amazing from most new members - they want to be spoon fed - is the word I would use

Apple - for their iTunes update that removed the desktop iOS app store on on Windows and Mac PCs.
In future we'll need to manage apps directly from our iPhone or iPad.

Details:

[EDIT] I'm still using an iPhone 6 - and no matter how much emails Apple sends to tempt me, I have no desire to fork out for an iPhone 8 with its 4.7-inch display (and £699 price tag), or an iPhone 8 Plus with its 5.5-inch display (a mere snip at £799).
And as for the iPhone X - dream on Tim Cook...

Hmmm, Lets see, I just opened my email and got a bunch of emails from some of Australia's biggest companies

Woolworths Limited
Westpac Bank
Commonwealth Bank
ANZ Bank
Coles Myer
Telstra
BHP Billiton
National Australia Bank
Jetstar
Qantas

Plus some others
Toyota Australia
Jaguar Australia
Sony Australia
Virgin Australia
Ford Australia

Should I open

Just how stupid is this spammer, hacker or con artist

I don't think they are stupid just looking for those stupid enough to open any of them. They send 100K's or even Meg's of them so the odds are pretty good that a few will be opened and then they are in

Apart from other drivers, the things that get my goat include:

1) As am from the UK, so I'd have to say the airline Ryanair, who can cancel over 350000 flights and not seem too bothered.

2) Getting fired because another employee (who everyone hates anyway) doesn't like you and they whine like a biatch.

3) The professional network 'Linkedin' and how it's turning into Facebook.

4) The false economy that is cheap bin liners.

my personal hate ( and steadily increasing ) are the little morons
that re-post some-ones else's you tube video - and don't even disguise
the fact its a direct copy - eg google on youtube
Hobby Boss Arizona 1/350
and you see there is a build article in several parts from a lovely
Australian guy called ' Harry Houdini ' -
who talks sense and is fun to listen to - yet some moron
decides to re-post his video as though its his own work -
why you would spend good time re-posting an article that clearly is not yours , is beyond me ..

the best way I can show this

This is a really talented guy called Jim mathers - where he rants about
re-posters on you tube ( he describes the morons a million times better than me ) - enjoy !
