Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for March 11, 2018

Good one, Father.

Tony told us and asked, about 11 hours ago

There’s a new one EVERY DAY (and they ask me why I drink)

Favorite App?

Only one? Bad connection with your phone? (There are better reasons for drinking. To your health!)

Favorite: Sudoku and Solitaire; most useful: Phone, SMS (yes; those are apps, too!, Firefox, Media-Player (vlc) and Camera, to name a few. All built in or free with no unnecessary permissions.

“App” a convenience for those who are syllabically challenged.

A friend of mine ran over his iPad last week. When he told me what he did, I thought a good app would be to sense when something like that is about to happen and have it text your phone to warn you. It’s just a rough idea, let the IT people figure out the details.

I have a several year old low-end Samsung phone, only 8 Gb internal storage.

Wish there were an app to get rid of all the preloaded ones I can’t delete…. or at least tell me which I could safely disable, and remove updates so they might be smaller.

Can’t add ones I want cos of massive waste of space from those.

Have an almost empty SD card but most apps won’t move there.

Airplane mode

Weather, just to see what the temperature is!!!

Syl

There are no Apps on my flip-phone. The most used App on my Kindle is Weather Underground. My favorite App is loaded potato skins.

The off-button.

Euchre and camera. I use the phone part only when I am out of the house and need to call home. I don’t even know my cell phone number.

This seems a bit of a role reversal. Usually it’s the parents asking the kids. But that’s good definition.

I only download the free apps. There are enough of those to do what I need, even for my digital paintings.
