Thanks, but if I have to install something just to view a particular
site... I'll pass.

Sites like that have nothing of interest to me.

That's exactly what it is intended to be. It's an online bulletin
board. See a link you want to remember, save it to a focused board on
Pinterest. If you have no interests that you want to save links to,
then Pinterest isn't for you.

He should have given you the actual link instead of directing you to
Pinterest. Here it is

Pinterest is a public bulleting board. Your bookmarks aren't public.

heh That's exactly what I thought when I read her post this morning.
People need to focus on saving valuable info on their OWN COMPUTERS and
backups, not on internet places that eventually disappear. Same thing
with saving pictures online.

I know that. Why the hell should I make my bookmarks public? It's
nobody else's business. Honestly, the levels of narcissism in
the world are increasing exponentially.

They're not after your stuff though. Use of Pinterest is voluntary.

Um. I have well over 20,000 Pins and if you think I'm going through
20,000+ bookmarks when I'm browsing for chicken cooking inspiration,
you're out of your ever loving mind.

Of course, that is not the point. I don't want my bookmarks made public.

That was Cheri. She used that picture to say that she doesn't want to
eat industry chicken and be in poor health when she gets old.

Like Facebook, the only people who complain about it aren't members of
the group. It's like a club... open to anyone who wants to join,
excludes those who don't, and those who complain want it both ways.
Love it!

I probably have another 20,000 saved recipes on my computer - but now
that I have my Pinterest boards, I can be more choosy about what I
save.

> Same thing with saving pictures online.

Somehow or other, I lost a lot of family pictures lately due to a
computer dying and enough problems with the replacement that I sent it
back. I thought I had copies on backup, but haven't figured out which
thumb drive or portable HD they are on yet. Thank goodness for the
cloud.

No, it means that I want to eat every sort of animal that is available every
single day, preferably after they're dead. I also don't have to worry about
poor health when "I'm old." I am old, and my health is fine, but if I died
today, I didn't die young...and I have enjoyed eating huge amounts of
animals along the way. Mmmmmmmmmm.

I answer in kind, you aren't childish as much as you're just plain
hateful...just look at this for instance, you just had to get in there with
a sarcastic slam because that's what you do. I had decided after you called
me a bitch that I wouldn't respond to you much since you are so predictable.
I see that was a good plan.

You said:
"I had forgotten, for a brief moment, that Cheri would never say anything
nasty."

You posted that picture in reply to what I said. Not strange that I
commented then is it?

I shouldn't say you're a bitch, if I did say that, because I don't think
you are, but you sure can be bitchy.

I don't remember the context, but that must have been ironic.

The need to store files on a local computer is certainly a quaint, old-fashioned notion. I suppose that it might make some sense in this modern world - but only if you have dial-up.

All things eventually disappear. Your files and my files will be like dust in the wind. I suspect that these archives will still be around after we're dead. You can thank Google for that. It's like the granddaddy of all blog sites.

It's about privacy and control. I don't want to relinquish either.

That's an attitude born of the technical limitations of an era. Back in the old days, important files were backed up on tapes and stored in a remote location. This still holds true today except that the files are not put on tapes, placed in a vehicle, and driven away.

As far as your files that you want to control, it's going to end up in the same place as my father-in-law's backup tapes are - stored in our bedroom or some other dusty, forgotten, place. Eventually, it's going to the dump. Perhaps it'll be dug up a hundred years or more and archaeologists will try to read the data and business of people long dead.

You want privacy and control? DS1 won't like that.

I've at least twice had to have my credit card re-issued due to a data
breach somewhere. These weren't even places that I shop online.
The cloud is insecure. Really, it is.

Yes, they are. That's exactly how my employer handles backups. Ok, not
on tape, but to removable hard drives. Then they've moved offsite.

Oh, I think I'll write a will instructing my executor to shred my hard
drive (and my backups) once he's done with it. I have no children or
siblings, and I've never even met my one and only first cousin.

Yep. It's very nature makes it vulnerable. Your personal data online
and potentially out of your control if security is breached (which is
only a matter of time before it happens).

I set up a LAN across my property, and my backups go to 2 machines in
buildings separated by hundreds of feet. Short of a massive earthquake
or meteor strike... I will always have a good backup.

I don't want to get into a discussion about security issues in the modern world. My point was that young people see cloud computing differently than people that grew up with the advent of the age of computers. Old folks see computers as a big boxes, young folks will see it as virtual machines. The cloud is the computer. Obviously a wired network is likely to be more secure than one that broadcasts data through the air. Does that matter a whit? No..

I recently bought an RJ-45 crimper kit to make ethernet cables. It came with the crimper, 100 RJ-45 connectors, and a couple of test boxes to check the cable. It was 12 bucks. What a steal - or was it? Anyway, what this means is that wired networks are going the way of the doodoo.

But you will anyway. It's stronger than you.

15 years ago, people predicted that in a couple of years we wouldn't
have software installed on our computers anymore. Need word processing?
Grab a word processing application from the cloud. Need a spreadsheet?
Grab a spreadsheet application from the cloud. Etc, etc. We're 15 years
later and look at us. Not even Notepad comes from the cloud.

Of course that matters. It matters a lot.

It's 2016 and people are still buying RJ-45 crimper kits to make
ethernet cables. There you go!

What you say is most curious. I must be responding to a 16 year old post. Yeah, that's the only reasonable explanation. Rest assured that in 2016 most people will not use desktop client programs and desktop computers. They will use small hand-held devices and programs called "apps" which connects to the internet to do that things that they need to do. I think you will like it when you finally catch up. The future - it's gonna blow your mind!

Rest assured that in 2016 most people will not use desktop client programs and desktop computers.

I'm responding to you using a Chrome browser window. I don't need to download no stinkin' app. It doesn't matter what computer I use. My son writes his school papers on the web. He don't need no stinkin' Word 20XX whatever desktop client program.

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.
