I think this part of your post verifies David's concerns about Yahell
very nicely. That's ~exactly~ his point, some of us draw a line at how
much invasion of privacy we are willing to bear.
You want frustration? Try using the internet on dialup service, as I am
frequently forced to do when the crappy satellite ISP is down.
Amen to that. I live in the middle of Minnesota. My internet choices are
slow, and slower; and it's only gotten worse since the pandemic. Slowest
(dial up) is no longer even a viable option for email, since so many
people send emails bloated with HTML, photos, etc.
Some web pages are now so big that they essentially paralyze my
computer. There *is* no text; it's all images; so nothing appears until
the entire page loads and finally renders. I give up after 5+minutes and
move on.
I have great appreciation for web pages and sites that are written with
sparse code and load fast without gobbling up bandwidth
Same here. That's why my "old school" EV web pages are all small and
load fast <http://www.sunrise-ev.com>
Bruce, nobody is denigrating you on your posts on behalf of the EVLN,
you work hard at what you do, and I doubt that anyone here expects you
to sanitize links you post other than to ensure that they are what you
expect them to be.
Agreed. Bruce does a great job culling out the BS, and only reporting on
the 1% of links with more promising content that we might like to check
out. (The other 99% is *really* bad!)
But it is helpful when he or David can also provide less-invasive links.
