#73330 — Exposure Notifications inactive

To save battery, I turned off my bluetooth, and I got a notification on
the cellular startup screen with a red sun and the message "Exposure
Notifications inactive.  To use this feature, turn on bluetooth." 

I had to google to be reminded of what it meant.  It refers to exposure
to covid and since a) I have the app that keeps track of whether I'm
near an infected person, and b) I turned off bluetooth, it complains. 

I only go out once or twice a week, soI will leave it off and hope the
reminder re-appears when I'm leaving the house. 

----

Also I bought some Basic AAA batteries from Amazon and the mailing label
had in bold fairly large text “Not restricted as per special provision”.
Other things were in the bag too and I'd bought 9V batteries just a few
months ago and there was no such message, so I had to look that up, but
it's definitely because of the batteries.  Every 12 batteries came in
its own shrink wrap.

       How does it know if someone has Covid?  What alarm goes off if it 
senses
Covid?   I can't get that image of the Lost in Space robot out of my 
head.  DANGER
DANGER DANGER  WILL ROBINSON

     Some cut.

It gets told that they tested positive.

It doesn’t work like that.

We need to save this ng from infestation of the infantile trolls.

Why does the Fred troll?
o I have no idea

All I know is that it does.

That's a screen from today of the cesspool it turned a.h.r into
o And, clearly, the cesspool it wants to turn c.m.a into (AFAICT)

Lest anyone on the Android ng be fooled, this "Fred" is a well known troll which, 
along with the rest that responded, has turned the REPAIR newsgroup
into the cesspool of its brand of infantile politics.

Don't believe me?
o Want proof?

Look at just the recent posts from this "Fred" infantile political sock:

These are just a few of the _recent_ infantile off-topic political threads

No, it will not. How can it know you are leaving home?

I have BT on full time, and I stay most of the time at home. No impact
on battery, I get to bedtime with 2/3 of battery left.

I need BT when I get to the car, and I prefer not forgetting to switch
it on.

Well it's a little computer.  It should know.   Google or something
knows everything. 

But what I meant was, When I'm leaving the house and I turn the phone on
again, I hope the reminder re-appears.

Now I have a reminder.  At least if it shows up again.

They need to follow some sort of rules to ship batteries. They must have
been made for Li-ion batteries.   I'm not at all convinced they apply to
alkaline batteries or AAA batteries. But even if they do, Amazon solved
any problem by shrink wrapping them in groups of 12 so no + could touch
a - end.  Clear, rather stiff shrink wrap.  Maybe that's not the right
word.

Ah.

I know there is a regulation for liquid acid batteries. New rechargeable
batteries have some risk of fire. But plain "basic AAA" batteries :-?
Maybe they stuck the label "just in case".

Certainly, if you short the ends of any battery there is a risk of fire.

Any decent smartphone knows that with the gps.

Which doesn't work inside my house. Google maps history always ask me to
confirm that I'm home, it never knows.

Doesn’t need to, it works as you leave the house.

But will when LEAVING the house.

I didn't know google maps kept a history on me, not that I mind.  It
will help my mother find out where I am. 

It never asks when to confirm I'm home, but the GPS does work inside my
house, I think . 

I want to be able to say "Alexa, I'm leaving", and it will turn my cell
phone on, lower my heat, turn off the stove, turn off the bathtub water,
eject from the closet the proper coat for the current weather, and
display in my glasses a list of things I need to bring with me that day.
Just kidding.  I'm happy when Alexa leaves me alone.

Goole Maps app, tap your microicon at the top right, then tap on the
"timeline" entry in the menu.

Don't be infantile, Arlen. Everybody is ignoring you or killfilled you.
Nothing you say about somebody being a troll is taken seriously by
anybody - even if they happen to be a troll.

Carlos,

You can't deflect the fact, Carlos, that you're feeding it willingly.

If you don't comprehend what I'm saying by now, you're an utter moron.
o The facts are clear in this thread, despite your attempt to evade facts.

I proved, with facts, beyond doubt, these are all known political trolls.
o <https://i.postimg.cc/QtrSTg2M/fred.jpg> Fred political troll
o <https://i.postimg.cc/4Nyd369x/micky01.jpg> micky political troll

o <https://i.postimg.cc/nzXjnMVG/rbowman.jpg> rbowman political troll
o Rod Speed is like Snit & Diesel & others well known so no proof is needed
All of whom have infested the REPAIR ng to turn it into a cesspool, Carlos.

I provided _hundreds_ of clear cites, Carlos.
o All of which you're utterly oblivious of

Why?
o I don't know why.

I suspect you're just stupid Carlos.
o Because any adult on the planet would easily agree

As did the Usenet admins who kicked "micky" off their servers.
o You think they're as stupid as you appear to be Carlos?

You're _feeding_ these cesspool trolls, Carlos.
o Why? I don't know why.

You tell us _why_ you're feeding known infantile political trolls Carlos.

I simply suspect you're too stupid to realize you're feeding it.
o It's not even a human for God's sake - and you can't figure that out.

Who is _that_ stupid, but you, Carlos?
o Seriously.

I realize you're too stupid, Carlos, to comprehend the proof I supplied.
o But that proof isn't for you (because you _defend_ those trolls, Carlos)

But others aren't as stupid as you are Carlos.
o Which is why I supplied the proof.

Which even you, Carlos, can't possibly deny despite your attempts to try.
o You can't deflect the fact, Carlos, that you're feeding it willingly.
-- 
If people like Carlos continue to feed the infantile political troll, 
rest assured, this Android newsgroup will soon be a cesspool where it, 
and Carlos thrive, but nobody else will.

Some batteries have to be labeled as HazMat. I eventually kept the 
laptop but when I was going to return it to Amazon the return label to 
be printed out included a red hazmat notification.
