The harsh reality is this. We can vote for neither major candidate, or vote for a third party. It will not change the final outcome, one of the two candidates will win.

Well, you can’t say Hilary isn’t racist either.  Being outside the country you 
may not know but she calls young black men Super predators and her husband has 
a long racist history.  Also,  Hilaries mentor was a guy named Robert Bird from 
West Virginia.  Robert Bird was a Klu Klux Klan member and openly used the N 
Bomb on US television while Hilary was following in his foot steps.  So let’s 
not give her a pass either, she has a long checker history not only of criminal 
behavior, pay to play business dealings but anti black pro KKK dealings.  Both 
candidates are flawed and in full disclosure, I voted for neither option.

To answer your question, yes there are 3rd party options but none have any 
sizable following.  The Libertarians of which I am a member are best described 
as economically conservative and socially liberal meaning for example we want 
small government but also support Gay Marriage or pro choice viewpoints.  (just 
an example)  There is also the Green party this year which is a very left 
leaning group heavily environmentally focused and I believe has historical 
connections to the communist workers party.  To give you an idea of the 
percentage breakdown, about 45% of the population of the US will vote Democrat, 
about 45% will vote Republican and the remainder will vote 5 - 8% Libertarian, 
the remainder will be the Green party and the write in option.  Voters have the 
option to write the name of anyone they wish on the ballot as well instead of 
picking one of the listed options.  I know for example someone who is writing 
in Kermit The Frog.

Personally, I know the candidate I voted for won’t win, I hope Hillary does not 
as I view her as more dangerous to the country over all being a complete gun 
grabbing criminal.  I do support Trump’s economic plan but like you Simon I 
don’t feel either candidate is a great option and in order to sleep at night I 
couldn’t in good conscience vote for either option, so I didn’t.

I get cited assistance from a poll worker. They take my ballot, read it to me, 
and Mark my selections for me, and then insert the ballot into the reading 
machine for me. I think of it as the same kind of relationship as that between 
priest and penitent. They don't judge me for my choices and I have complete

Importance: High

Hello All,

It's been a while since last I posted as a moderator.  This is because as 
responsible men and women, I trust that everyone in this community will conduct 
themselves in a gracious and kind manner.

Having said this, in light of the post, upon which I am commenting, I say the 
following:

Scott, (and everyone, for that matter), name calling is unacceptable and 
inexcusable in this community and it simply will not be tolerated.

In my world, this sentiment is clear but just in case you live in a different 
world, this means that should anyone persists with this kind of behavior, they 
will be banned from the list.

I will post this in a completely separate thread, also, just so everyone will 
see it.

To end on a positive note, I wish you all the best holiday season, ever.

Sincerely,

Mark

It’s to bad you’re both wrong and Chris asked the question because this is 
right in my area but since he blocks me and since he’s such an ass to everybody 
I guess the wrong information will have to be out there.

Anyone who wishes the correct answer including you Ray please contact me off

Seems to me you might try it this way.

If you have cellular service turned off for any apps, those apps WILL, NOT, be 
able to use data if you go outside of Wifi range.  IF you turn cellular off all 
together, and have only Wifi calling inabled, you WILL, NOT, be able to make or 
receive calls unless you are in range of your WIFI network.  Can’t see what’s 
so hard to understand about that myself.  Seems very basic to me.

Guys,

I don't know how to better explain this, and honestly, I'm getting a bit 
agrevated trying to do so. Maybe one of you can chime in and help me out.

I have a friend who is on this list. I'm not going to reveal which member it 
is, as I don't wish to put anyone here on the spot. I'm not even going to 
reveal their gender.

Anyway, he/she has just recently obtained an iPhone. They are incredibly new to 
the iPhone world. In fact, they are new to the smart phone world in general.

When they go into settings, Cellular, they see things using data like Apple 
Music, YOutube, etc. I tried to explain to them that yes, those things are 
turned on, as they are set to where cellular data is allowed to be used with 
the apps.

I told them that if  they either turn off any of those apps, or for that mind, 
do what they wanna do by totally turning cellular off completely, that's not a 
very wise idea in most cases.  I tried explaining that when cellular is off, 
then nothing will work if they're on the Verizon cellular 4G/LTE network. The 
only time they'd have data internet connectivity would be if they were on a 
wifi network. Obviously, they don't believe me, or don't understand, one of the 
two.

I don't know how to explain this any easier. I told them that all they're doing 
by disabling those apps under there like Apple Music, etc. is, they're not 
disabling the apps from currently! using data. All they're doing is disabling 
the apps so they never! will use cellular.

The example I gave them was, if they turn off Apple Music, then any time they 
move out of range of their wifi, they won't be able to use Apple Music, as 
they've disabled it from being able to be used with Cellular.

I told them, if they turn off cellular entirely, then they won't be able to 
receive phone calls nor make calls, etc. unless they are on a wifi network, as 
they do have wifi calling enabled.

Of corse, if they're on wifi, then their internet would also work regardless, 
but as soon as they move away from the wifi range, their internet would go 
kaput and so would their incoming and outgoing calls.

I tried explaining that by it saying those apps use cellular data, that doesn't 
mean they're necessarily using their 6 gigs of data right then and there. The 
only time that happens is if they're not on a wifi network, at which point, it 
falls back to their LTE cellular data. As long as they are on  a wifi network, 
it would not use their 6GB data plan.

Again, I'm not gonna reveal who it is, but they are on this list, and they 
definitely do check their mail from this list on a regular basis, so if you 
respond, I know they'll see it, beyond a doubt.

Perhaps one of you all who're a little more patient today can explain this.

They told me that they called Verizon, and Verizon is telling them to always 
leave cellular completely turned off regardless if they are on wifi or not. I 
find that extremely perplexing, as why the hell would you want your cellular to 
always be off. O, Kayyy. I know places where yes, you may want it off, but not 
100% of the time. Come on! Really?

I don't doubt what they're telling me Verizon said to them, and honestly, it 
doesn't exactly surprise me that a rep would a told them this, but I will 
leavbe my personal opinions out, and spare you all.

Anyway, how else do I explain how that cellualr screen works, and what it does?

Also, they're wonderring in that screen at the veryh bottom what wifi assist is.

I wish they'd leave that stuff back their alone, as I know what's probably 
gonna happen. They're gonna start turning stuff on/off then will dm me on 
Twitter and be like, Chris, why is X, y, and Z not working? Then, I'm gonna be 
lost, as I don't know what they shut on and off.

I keep telling them, if it isn't broken, don't try fixing it, but, they wanna 
obviously be adventurous, which is fine, to a point, but why ask me what 
something does, if you're only then gonna turn around and say, well, not 
according to what x person/persons tell/tells me.

I mean, Gawod! Why're you asking me my opinion if you're then gonna say, not 
true from what I hear. They tell me they believe me, but, if they do, then why 
do they contradict every blessid thing I say? I don't clame to know everything, 
no, and I have no issues with getting 2nd opinions, but that's really rude when 
asked for help, I provide, then you turn around in my face and say well, that's 
not true according to whoever intity. If you think what I'm saying isn't gonna 
be true, then why're you asking me to start with!

OK, rant over.

Does anyone know how better to explain this screen, and maybe why ideally, 
you'd want to leave cellular on? Does anyone know further how to convince this 
person that as long as they're on a wifi network, that they're not eating up 
their 6GB data? I'm! obviously not gonna convince them, and frankly, I'm tired 
of trying to do so, with all due respect to them. Smile.

Chris.
