Moot

Last night, I attempted to send a copy of my one-and-only important document to myself (i.e., poor man's "cloud") using the e-mail "app" on the Apple® iPad® mini 2 tablet computer. That's when I discovered that there's no way to attach a file in the "app." The same goes for Web e-mail. Turns out that the only way to attach a file through e-mail is to first open the file in its associated "app" and use the "share" option. Intuitive? Not really.

Typical Animated Hotties
I have also noticed some lags and stuttering, particularly with the iOS home screen animations. The Nexus 7 tablet computer experienced similar problems. However, the Nexus 7 could easily attach any file to e-mail either in an "app" or Web browser. Android® is more like a regular computer. However, let me also mention that the same crappy "apps" are ubiquitous to both platforms. I can find nothing useful. Any suggestions?

Typical Approved Hottie
Anyway, none of that nonsense matters. The main difference between the iPad® mini 2 and the Nexus 7 is Vuze® (bit-torrent client), at least for me. Yeah, endless "mainstream" flicks or hurdy-gurdy video clips. Hours upon hours were invested in the benign activity. No more, once I move to the dreadful Chinatown dormitory. Without Vuze®, I only need the Web browser to peruse only a handful of approved sites. So, fussing over either tablet computer is moot.

Typical Commuting Hottie
Well, as usual, my return trip from town in the afternoon wasted a lot of time. Two hours and 20 minutes, to be exact. It's like that every weekend, with Sunday being the worst day. The distance covered is only about seven miles, if you can believe it. The situation has been worsening over time. Fortunately, this is my last weekend of commuting by bus to town from Chaos Manor (read: rental housing) and back.
