Corporatism isn't what you think it is. Try corporatocracy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporatism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporatocracy Fascism adopted some corporatist ideas via Gabriele D'Annunzio, although D'Annunzio didn't have much use for Mussolini. 'Fascism' with the lower case 'f' means whatever the purple haired, pierced harpy thinks it means.

If you can still get Shok to ship you the phone, the Schok Classic flip phone is fairly good. It claims to run actual Android rather than Alcatel's Kai OS. The virtual mouse cursor works for a lot of web-app-y stuff. Unfortunately, I think Schok is phasing out their flip phones. Your landline carrier sounds like Ziply. If so I suggest caution when porting a number. About 1.5 years ago, I ported my 20+yo landline number from Ziply to Ooma but wanted to continue the FIOS internet service. Despite a Ziply agent assuring me that the internet service would continue without interruption, Ziply shut down the internet service at 10pm on a Sunday night, which caused me to miss a whole Monday of WFH. Xfinity/Comcast had new service functioning late Monday afternoon. Ziply was ~24 hours later, which would have cost 2 days of work. Other than Ziply's lack of truthfulness and back-stabbing, the switch to Ooma for the landline number has been very good. -- Robert Riches spamtrap42@jacob21819.net (Yes, that is one of my email addresses.)

Now the whole "back-end", I changed that to Linux as fast as possible. Didn't even have M$ on my personal box there. Good servers/networking/net/ routing/etc ... use Linux ! The new guys, they totally sold out to M$. It's gonna BITE sooner or later - probably sooner. But then they can BLAME it on M$ - "Not OUR Fault !!!". >> Thus, it is not inappropriate for the GNU/Linux advocate >> to install Win11. > > Well that's OK because I am not a Linux/Unix advocate.

I've been pondering this koan for a little while now, and I haven't had the "aha" moment yet. Maybe it can be found plumbing the depths of "TINW"? Beats me. BTW, I know you're excited about your latest MS Windows purchase, but I can't see how that is on topic for colm. Also, you didn't compare MS Windows to Linux, so it's off-topic in cola, too. Message-ID: <comp.os.linux.advocacy-RFD1@uunet.uu.net> Summary from article: Summary: comp.os.linux.advocacy is to be an unmoderated group for the discussion of the positive and negative sides of Linux and comparison of Linux with other operating systems. CHARTER: The proposed group will provide a forum for the discussion of Linux. In addition, it will allow comp.os.linux.misc to deal with Linux-specific issues. Discussion will include (but not be limited to) the discussion of the pros and cons of Linux and appliactions for Linux, and the comparison of Linux with other operating systems and enviromnets such as Microsoft DOS and Windows, SCO UNIX, Coherent, NeXTstep, Macintosh System, etc. It will be an unmoderated forum. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (Here endeth this ancient history lesson.) I've set fu2: cola for further discussion. Since you morphed out of my kf once again, I can eagerly await your sagacious remarks. -- -v System76 Thelio Mega v1.1 x86_64 Mem: 258G OS: Linux 7.2.0-rc7 D: Mint 22.3 DE: Xfce 4.18 (X11) NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090Ti (24G) (610.57.04)
