No problem. I probably won't be here to endure it, and we'll all keep reading articles in the press for years about how Linux remains just a niche OS for computer freaks, the community support in open source is actually worthless and so on...
I sympathize with you about your metered connection, but you are only adding to your own cost burden... You need to learn how to separate the bovine effluent from the buckwheat
Separate when? When it doesn't matter anymore? Show me a way to not *download* (=pay) all the unreadable messages and I'll go for it. In any case, remember that what adds more to the cost is NOT those who post unreadable messages, but those who ANSWER them, allowing the "bovine effluent" to continue and eventually constituting the greatest part of it. In any case, as I already said, never mind me, really. I'll probably just unsubscribe after this thread.
