I Am Not a Crook

40 times Hillary Clinton told the FBI she couldn't remember.

It includes not remembering any briefing or training about handling federal records. Her excuse is that she has brain damage (no, really) from the stroke she had around that time. Didn't she receive any briefing about how to handle classified information when she was a senator on the Armed Services Committee? Did she forget all of that too?

Part of the whole "Hillary's got experience" propaganda is that she has been in the White House and has the benefit of having learned about the presidency through her husband's two terms in office yet she couldn't manage to learn that Top Secret information needs to be handled in a way that protects it from foreign agents. Keeping it on a relatively insecure server and using her email (and that server) when in foreign countries isn't indicative of someone who has experience...or an IQ higher than room temperature.

If anyone else had treated secure information the way she has, they wouldn't be running for president, they'd be doing time in a federal penitentiary.

Hillary is Clueless

Hillary Clinton didn't use password to protect her PC and used unsecure personal BlackBerry to send private emails 'because she's clueless with computers'

 Aw, she's just like grandma, can't seem to figure out this newfangled technology. Poor old thing.

No!

Age has nothing to do with it. Learning to use a desktop computer for email does not require any special skills or youthfulness. Technology isn't going to go away just because she can't be bothered with it.

What kind of decision making choices would she bring to the presidency if her thoughts hinge on avoiding technology or anything that is unfamiliar? Let's make things overly complicated instead of learning a simple new skill.

Sometimes I wonder if unfamiliarity with the technology was just an excuse. She was smart enough to get a law degree, so she can't be that stupid, can she? Maybe it was just a power play. See if she could get the State Department to change rules and adapt to her rather than have her change to adapt to it.

Uninstalling Facebook

A test by a reddit user found that removing the Facebook app and the Facebook Messenger app from Android phones made the phone launch other apps on the phone 15% faster. Other redditors also reported similar results.

A reporter for The Guardian found that removing just the FB app saved 20% of his battery life. He replaced the app with Metal, which still let him access Facebook.

Does it really make this much difference if you already close the app so that it's not running in the background all the time?
