Had a package that was supposed to arrive today. Got notice that it's been delayed because it was shipped to an incorrect facility. That facility is 52 minutes from my house. New ETA on the package: 1 week from today.

Must be another side effect of having eight-year-olds for parents.

Must be another side effect of having > eight-year-olds for parents. I shan't ask Jeff-Relf.Me how any part of Allah's anatomy tastes no matter how many times Jeff-Relf.Me kisses it. That's what Jeff-Relf.Me does when he gets humiliated. He quickly creates a new identity, starts a new thread so he can claim he didn't do it. Don't blame me it was my left hand... and then Jeff-Relf.Me responds to himself with his right hand. Thanks to Jeff-Relf.Me and his 'convenient friends' you now need an approved list. If people start responding to him again I will feel compelled to... as I said. I am referring to advocates here, not idiots, who have been responding to him all along. Being open source as it is, low-level programming will never go away but it'll never be well known. How is FileZilla on Linux doing anything above the lowest common denominator? It's Jeff-Relf.Me's problem but he blames Allah. Obviously he would rather blame others than face reality. Jeff-Relf.Me is just thrilled that Allah is on the other end. Imagine if Jeff-Relf.Me walked up to a wall and delivered the punch line. It wouldn't be worth it. I am an obsessed supporter of Linux, because that's where all the exciting modernization is happening. -- Get Rich Slow https://youtu.be/lF8yk7ul4Mw Jonas Eklundh Communication

If I click "track package," it says April 10 If I use take that tracking ID and go to USPS page, it says April 6. Clusterfuck of wishful thinking, IMO.

Because most likely you are a suburban jackass that drives an SUV or pickup truck, that 100 miles will translate into about $25.00 of gasoline. What was the cost of the Amazon freight? But Amazon cannot necessarily be blamed. Their shipping contractors are responsible for the deliveries. It is not uncommon for packages to be stuck for weeks, months, or forever at a US Postal regional center and Amazon's suppliers use the USPS a lot. I ordered a product that became stuck for several weeks. After contacting the supplier I was sent a replacement product at no cost. Then, after about 2 months, the original shipment finally arrived. I got two products for the price of one. Another time I ordered a memory stick. The human packer at the distribution plant must have gotten distracted because he placed TWO memory sticks in the box. These were relatively expensive memory sticks. Did I do my proper civic duty and return the item that was sent to me by mistake? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

They said it got misdirected. Probably some crackhead robot working the line. And you can't blame the USPS with Amazon cheating them out of so much money.

Audra Moore has yet to show how Kit Scenarist does anything above the basics on Linux. How is wasting random neuron firings tied to the intelligence of a turnip in any way going to lead to improved usenet dialog? It's a decades long battle, and Audra Moore is simultaneously an expert bullshiter of trolling remarks, while posting with nyms that speak just like him. I have a custom setup I use as well, but it's a bit different. I think the person you are thinking of is in my KF.

I noticed a local gas station with about 20 or 30 brand new, white vans gassing up yesterday. There was a small sign on the back "Southern Star Service" and, through the unpainted window of one of them, I saw hundreds of Amazon Prime packages just thrown in (didn't look stacked at all). So, obviously, hiring people who used their private cars wasn't working out too well. Amazon's delivery service has been degraded ever since their contract with FedEx ended. -- The more I see of Windows, the more I like Linux.

Are you being idiotic on purpose? And in reply you have nothing but a crack to start more flooding. When I was new here, I wanted to be equitable and impartial. I gave Pascal Hambourg more than an intelligent person should. Now that nobody is talking to Pascal Hambourg, he's making it sound like he's outsmarted us all -- when in fact, people are just not playing his game anymore. -- This broke the Internet!! http://www.5z8.info/dont-just-drizzle_y8q4ut_5waystokillwithamelon https://prescottareapsychopaths.wordpress.com/paul-f-riddle-psychopath/ Jonas Eklundh

They were "confused" because there was "too much choice" in delivery services. 8) -- "Even RedHat only stands behind their product while you're actively paying for support." - lying asshole "-hh", whining that Free software doesn't come with free support.
