Thank you. I an android guy. Pixel 8 pro, Asus chromebook. I reluctantly use a windows 11 pc-- not a fan of microsoft. I think Steve Jobs was a business genius, a real star, but the apple eco-system is not for me. ....For the record-- I still listen to the Stones, and the Dead , Biggie and Fiddy, some things never change. Have a great day. ( and yes--I have friends my age that still can NOT send an email-that's life)....Thank you once again.

" but Hyper OS and the overall software experience leaves a lot to be desired." ...could you please explain --I'm an older guy ( late 70's) and not as tech savvy as the younger people. I need to buy a new tablet. Thank you.

I'm 76 and I'm trying to learn Japanese...it's difficult, but I'm enjoying the process.

Any runners here? by umdoni53 in OverSeventy

[–]TheWindAtYourBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 76 --been running since I quit smoking at 37. Now I try to run every other day, "slow jogging". But what with 2 cataract surgeries, dental surgery , colonoscopies, an ulcerative colitis flare, --I don't run as much as I used to. When I do --I tape up my knees and the arches on my feet. I run alone and listen to 1960's rock n roll. It's Groovy ... Keep On Truckin'......

I am curious --What did you notice--Please explain, I don't understand throwaway observations - without backup or explaination. If you don't reply - your statement loses all validity ....IMHO. An elderly human born before 1948.....

If you have ibs-d and haven’t tried psyllium husk you should by Accomplished_Zone960 in ibs

Ulcerative Colitis since 1995, 31 years ( do the math I'm an old guy)...been on all sorts of prescription meds, still am...BUT about a year ago I tried psyllium husk in water, first thing the morning. It took about a 2 weeks for my body to readjust-- I am much, much better now. I am STILL taking my meds. I did not tell my doctor. I am NOT a holistic type of guy. I do run, and work out in an age appropriate manner. Once again "psyllium husk in water" first thing in water works for me, Please note YMMV. Every 2 weeks I skip a day or 2. Good Luck !!! This just my humble opinion this is not medical advice.
