Ok, ill use my android for this one. Nix based I'm sure you know. Anyway my newest projects include an openbsd firewall. Either a free or open bsd server for private and a few friends use. My dell laptop is a joke and my debian box is stable for once having troubles with
*pythonwx-2.8 and its related packages so playonlinux is not installable till I at least solve the problem. All the gpgkeys are in order and apt-get update etc pulls no errors so the mirror I'm using isn't bad or being ignores. - thanks kevin

Very generous, I'm sure.  I don't want them right
now, but had the message been addressed to the
person who did, instead of the whole list, ...

Maybe the person who asked for a monitor can
keep us updated.

> Sent from my iPhone

There are three possibilities:

(1) The iPhone puts that message there, you can't
   change it.  Tell the marketing department it isn't
   working; I count that as a reason to flee.

(2) You think we care.  Maybe you can give a talk
   on Linux-iPhone interoperability.  Otherwise no.

(3) Most likely, you don't know how, or can't
   be bothered, to change the default to something
   useful like your name and phone number or
   something short like $(cat /dev/null).

Which brings me to the point of the rant:

and while you are at it, why not trim off the contents
from the body, keeping only what is relevant to the reply.

In the case of this rant, the only part relevant
is the impressive stack of appended noise.

I feel like an idiot, talking to a mailing list.
