    Remember I used to kill stuff for a living and grew up in Ireland where we had bombs basically every 2nd day on the news. One finds if they are not very very near you, it's grand. Green fairy helps with a relaxed attitude alright. (this may not sound as I intended)

    I'd better sleep or meditate, tomorrow will hurt with jet lag.

    So.. Conspiracy thinkers and how they make everything stupid so political forums are just hopeless. Conspiracy thinkers all share a marked characteristic, they externalise blame and will go to extreme mental gymnastics finding ways to blame others for their problems. How much of this is nature and how much nurture at an eary age?

    Van der Skoonmaker the fourth (if I remember my Afrikanns for janitor) is on the same mind that talks about vaccinations which is a life and death matter.

    It just happens that Spanish and English are both qwerty keyboard layouts and can co-exist seamlessly with their seperate dictionaries, French is not, azerty layout.

    Can we spin this into a conspiracy? The K-Con? K-Vax?

    Or is it just a waste of your life?

    I'm walking down the coast. Bare nekkid ladies everywhere lads. Though.. topless not nearly as common as it used to be, they say camera phones in part the blame. Better put mine away then :)

    I'd bet an Orangina it was an American mother..(who asked the police to tell the women to cover up in the story). Release the Kra.. Karen.

    Going topless is a fundamental liberty, says France official after cops tell women to cover up
    Police were forced to apologize for their 'blunder' and 'lack of tact' after they were seen telling women to cover up on a beach in southern France

    PARIS — Topless sunbathing is a fundamental French “liberty”, the interior minister said yesterday after feminists, Right-wing nationalists and Leftists united in outrage at a police order to women on a beach to cover up.

    If a traveler to another country can easily type accents by pressing on the desired letter and then holding it until a smart keyboard with different types of accents for that particular letter shows up...
    • This is how it works on my cell phone. You then just choose the desired accent.
    With the above said, if you're an English speaker and not in France...you will write Roman Polanski. Yet, let us pretend you're on vacation in France (Cannes area) and you see a billboard or words written somewhere of the same name...
    • You'll most likely visually see Román Polanski. You may then use the same way of spelling with the proper accents to communicate to others outside of France while you're still in France...tourists are known to do this.
    In contrast, if you're an English speaker (you know no other languages), you're writing online to someone that speaks English and you're not in France...most likely you will not write Román Polanski (with the accent).

    Simply, I usually make the effort on my English cell phone to make sure I type Québec and not Quebec and proper accents on all French words when I'm communicating with other French speakers... it is just a habit.

    Yet, when I communicate with family or friends that speak only English and I mention a popular French word / name...I will make an effort to write it with its proper spelling in French with accents.

    Another example, I have Lakota relatives that live in Arizona and they do not know their Lakota language (Siouan) nor do they speak French. They only speak English. If they use their cell phone to send me an English text...asking me what are the hotel rates at the "Chateau Frontenac"...I will respond to them that it is Fairmont Le Château Frontenac with the proper accents via habit.
    • Stupid debate because someone can not determine someone's location via Predictive Text...something that can be turned off (auto correct) in the Settings and even if they didn't turn it off...holding down the key on a letter to initiate the accents...that in itself will not allow the text to auto correct to an English spelling.
    Simply, I'm a citizen of three different countries (France, United States and Canada). No way in hell will you be able to determine which country I'm posting from while typing messages here at ET unless Baron (ET owner) tells you the IP address I'm posting from...

    Actually, the latter above still isn't 100% considering I use a cell phone from the United States with international roaming plan although I would not use a cell phone to post messages here at ET...my messages tend to be too damn long. :D

    As mentioned before by me, keyboard-gate rather perfectly shows how doggedly stupid and having a relaxed attitude to objective reality makes everything futile here. The conspiracy mindset at the core of near all of it.

    All the "debates" are stupid here generally speaking. How to fix or at least control the conspiracy blame-others-at-all-cost-brain is the only thing to learn from it.

    And a small point, when travelling in sophisticated countries using free WiFi etc. where the risk is higher with thieves tracing open networks etc. Always use a VPN. Mine has me in Holland right now.

    Most of our ET trolls lives in third world, shithole countries that is why they bash the US so much. They want to be admitted to the US so bad. Probably, lives such miserable lives that they want the same for US citizens. They want us to be miserable like them.
