Some people complain about the older interface but I like being able to bum around here on a long expired iPad and the site is stable.

Anyways, fasebuk crashed and I thought about how I can play games and post without Safari reloading two hundred times an hour.

Kudos for keeping the game accessible to cheap buggers like me.

I’m on a brand new 8th generation iPad.

So far the upgraded safari is doing some annoying things.

I read duke was having problems with Firefox.

Maybe auto fill will be better on this unit but I suspect it will be worse.

Maybe I will use the old one to play here.

Now I have ads and the game interface page is all messed up.

Welcome to “Progress”.

Edit:
Ugh, I figured it out and it was annoying. Not before starting a bug report looking for help.

Progress is not always better, and, the older we are (and get), the more we appreciate the "Classics" and older things.

I was talking to an older teacher at school recently and we concluded that often, the "old ways are better" or, at least they work for us. LoL :D (We take our old printed sheet to the copier and not rely on the "cloud" or bad connections somewhere or gremlins of technology.)

I was reluctant to give up Windows 98. That worked well for many years. And I really miss the search feature where you can easily use Windows to search for files. I used the puppy to find my hard to find files. THAT worked Great, TOO.

I have a student on quarantine and I had to use 4 computers (to do different functions) to get her online to join us and to make it all work. The hard drive on one crashed, causing me to go to another laptop. The fourth computer was used to send documents to her.
