How can you be /on/ gmail and not be in a web browser?
How can you be on the internet and not be using a modem? There's so much slop in adapting english words to internet "locations"/"actions"... My mom who *isn't* computer literate, talks about being "on" things in the computer, whether it is email (outlook) or a web page...etc. And, painfully, calls her desktop, her face page (and she doesn't have a facebook account). How about executing an illegal instruction morphing to input being illegal? That one was beaten to death ~ 10 years ago, so don't hear it as often, but the on stuff...haven't heard as good of arguments against using 'on' to mean using. So excuse me while I go get on a fork and have some food... BTW, google's recaptas suck...take too long, and more frequently don't work based on old browsers or non-google-approved protocols (where the website itself works, but as soon as you use a google "property"... you don't know what will work). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
