    NOT CrossPosted ;-).

    Hello All,

    Many of you are only talking about other things than the subject tells,
    or this area was/is designed for.

    Please stop these silly crossposted newsgroup messages about Apple (computers), Apple or Android mobile phones, 3.5 TRRS Jacks, FM-radio function, and hex programming old eproms in the previous century 80's, wirewrappingguns, apps
    on Apple or Android phones etc, as almost all of that has totally nothing
    to do with Raspberry Pi hard- and/or software.

    So those whole (much overquoted and spaced) discussions are total OFF TOPIC here in this RBERRYPI FidoNet EchoMail area and associated UseNet NewsGroup.

    Also the Radio Shack shop, basic TTL ic's, 555 timer has totally nothing to
    do with Raspberry Pi's, so those subjects are also of topic here.

    Please use other area's/newsgroups than RBERRYPI for that,
    but not here anymore.
    Does not matter how interesting those discussions are or not.
    But here we should always only talk about the Raspberry Pi Single Board Computers and sort alike.

    Besides that, the contents of many messages are completely different of what the subject field says.
    Most of them are not talking about the smallest USB wired keyboard any more.
    So please also change te the subject field, when changing the contents.

    Rapberry Pi users are not interested in the hate/love relation between some users wo are writing here almost every day, without contents about our
    beloved litle SBComputer Pi.
    Content other than Raspberry Pi related is Of Topic here.

    You can continue Android and/or in Apple phone questions in respectively: comp.mobile.android, or misc.phone.mobile.iphone,
    but stop CrossPosting those discussion also into this RBERRYPI area.

    Here we only want to read about Raspberry Pi's (not pis),
    Raspbian 32 and 64 bit Linux, Ubuntu and RISC OS software, program's and tools, or GPIO hard- and software or video camera projects all with Pi's.

    And last but not least, do not feed the trolls !

    Thank you all in advance.

    Henri.

    The offtopic flamewar is annoying, yes, but ^this you can easily solve:
    turn off your Fidonet gateway. Would also solve a few reverse annoyances
    like every Fuckonet post using the wrong timestamp, many fucking up the
    subject line and replies using your own quoting style that no one else uses.
