The funny thing is, just as we dropped Netflix on principle, and just as I dropped Sears Craftsman (Poulan) chain saws on principle, I told my wife we'd get any fridge other than a Kenmore, on principle. My point is supply and demand pressure. If everyone stopped buying products that prematurely fail, they'd have a downward pressure on poor reliability. Yet, the moment I opened up the bottom of the new Whirlpool fridge, a Kenmore build sheet popped out. The only thing different is the name plate. Sigh. |

I remember when I was in college, we used the washing machines and dryers in the laundry room of the dorm, where they pretty much had a slot for quarters and a button for on and off (and maybe a water temperature settings). We wanted a refrigerator that was simple. The only rule was that we would NOT reward Kenmore by buying another Kenmore for the rest of our lives. That's a principle thing. However, because of the layout of the kitchen, we were stuck with the side-by-side doors so we ended up with a frige of the same type as the old. We never expected it to be *exactly* the same though, since we bought online and had it delivered. So we didn't realize that it was exactly the same until it was delivered, and even then, until I took the backplate off, I hadn't realized everything was exactly the same inside also. Sigh. Fooled me they did. |

Have not checked into it in a long time, but isn't Kenmore just the name put on by Sears as Sears does not really make anything ? They could be made by anyone. Whirlpool is the name of a company that actually makes things. They also have the Roper (think that is the one) line that is an economy line. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

I'll never buy *another* whirlpool/kenmore then. :) |

One other thing, sometimes the internal parts of a brand name may be made by someone else. Sort of like years ago the way a Jeep was made. You had to know the day of the year the Jeep was made to know who made the actual parts for it. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

Funny coming from you ... who has never once told the truth. Your URL simply says that, as I predicted, that Safari is primitive code that doesn't even support the modern battery-status HTML5 spec which debuted years ago. Since your primary motive in using iOS is fear, this primitive code served you well in this case. However, your main approach is to "Just Give Up", so, that's why you never once considered that there are more modern browsers out there for iOS. You, like the Jolly Roger troll, never once added value to a single conversation of fact. You can't actually add value. That's because: a. You're afraid b. You want Apple Marketing to save you c. You can only think of 1 way to do anything, and if that 1 way fails, you "just give up". It's an Apple one-button-mouse trademark term: *"Just Give Up"* Luckily, since you use Safari, and since Safari gave up long ago on modern improvements in the HTML5 spec, just giving up has kept you safe. Congratulations! Hiding under the iOS rock has its benefits in safety after all. |

Indeed. Corollary: noone can exploit the battery-status spyware capabilities using Safari; i.e., Safari (precisely because of its greater primitivity) is a more secure browser in that regard. I should have thought that should make you happy :-) . Cheers, -- tlvp -- Avant de repondre, jeter la poubelle, SVP. |

By now, they're *very* different forks. There's been close to zero cross-pollination for some time. Can you folk please drop sci.electronics.repair from the newsgroup list?
