Hi "&y",

Given your "posting record", I suspect you're a troll, but I will wait for
you to troll further to confirm that suspicion (or, perhaps, you'll prove
to be real, which I would welcome).

Nonetheless my point of responding is that you may not get a reply from
this "micky" troll (at least not from the server it opened this thread
with).

Facts:
o "micky" was booted off Eternal September in late December
(about the 23rd or so as recall - based on facts presented to Wolfgang)
o "micky" immediately started spamming on Paolo's server (aioe)
(who timed him out, but for an unknown time frame, AFAICT)
o "micky" subsequently moved to UsenetFarm to spam this ng
(who kicked it off just now, only moments ago, in fact, AFAIK)

Note: I'm not sure if the "Bod" troll was also kicked off, as they're one
and the same anyway - where the Usenet Farm server admin wasn't explicit.

BTW, this thread was always just a "credibility troll" anyway, (IMHO),
where you can tell by a whole bunch of obvious clues, not the least of
which is the OP's never put any energy into them (they just fabricate
the question of of thin air, toying with anyone who tries to help, by
throwing up arbitrary obstacles and by not acting upon any advice nor
proving a single word it says).

One by one, the facts will get these trolls kicked off its servers.

Note: I'm not so naive to believe it won't keep finding new servers;
and changing its IP addresses on each; but, like weeds, it can certainly
grow faster than I can keep up, but the nntp server admins are
the last bastion of weed killers that may yet save this newsgroup
from the cesspool of the troll (it is perhaps a single puppet master?).

If micky-bod would just preface off-topic posts with the three character string "OT:", this wouldn't be an issue.

Sorry to snip away the rest of your post, micky. The first line was all I
wanted to comment about. Leaving bluetooth on used to have quite an impact,
but not so much anymore.

"So… does turning Bluetooth off save battery?

No, not really.

Over the course of our 26-hour “typical day� test, leaving Bluetooth on
consumed just 1.8% more battery compared to the test with Bluetooth off."

I keep bluetooth on all the time, so the phone works on my car. I have
no idea what effect it has on the phone's battery and I don't care. I
usually charge the battery every other night and that's fine with me.

You're tilting at windmills, Mr. Holder.

Same here, but I charge it each night on a qui charger next to the bed every
night in place of my old bedside clock. Besides using bluetooth for the car
I have it connected to my fitbit watch and fitbit bathroom scales. Don't
know what I'd do without all this tech now. I don't think I could bear the
anxiety in having to count how many times I've climbed the stairs each day.
