Tobaccoreviews.com. What's Changed?

Wow! Their new search is pretty quick! Predictive search ... I like it.

Apple has had that for many years.

Well, sure ... but it's an improvement for this site.
(Friends wonder how I'm able to return texts with full sentences so quickly. It's not my cat-like skills on a touchscreen keypad, it's all predictive typing. I like my iPhone. )

"Apple has had that for many years."
Because Apple users generally can't spell for toffee, even with predictive text to help them.

This from a fellow still using a desktop PC (capitalize, please) with the AOL pseudo-browser ... :nana:

But still one needs to know the basics eh Toob? :nana:

We Macintosh users spell no better nor worse than our PC brethren. I can't imagine putting up with a Windows machine any more than I could live in a cold climate without central heat. But, to each his own.

Not sure what "basics" we are talking about here or what is wrong with a desktop? These hand-held mobile battery-operated devices most of you are using (tablets, smartphones, etc.) are probably fine for what most people really do--- surfing the web, reading email, but they are piss-poor computers and that is not really /computing./
I do real computing using a MacPro computer set up as a RAID-5 array and run multiple operating systems via a virtual PC so I can use more kinds of apps.
It's ironic that Windows OS actually run better in Parallels on a Mac than it does in an actual PC! I don't know how you guys put up with 3-inch displays and keyboards so small that you need a pencil to hit the keys. 2560 X 1440 resolution is real nice as is using a real keyboard, not even those cramped pissy things they put on laptops.
As to predictive spellers, I turn them off. Too easy for it to predict the wrong word. I just run spellcheck because on my monitor, reading pages like this is hard to see as the letters are only 1/16 inch tall (a little over 1mm).

I've been on TR.com recently and didn't find any issues. THey did do some changes on the seach page.

I don't know if I am a fan of the automatic results, but maybe it's me. Anyway, it's definitely an improvement. There are a few things here and there that changed.

The blend label picture that follows you down ... it's funny.

I sure wish they would incorporate PT Foundations compatibility.

Working fine by me. I use Microsoft Edge mostly and I clean my cookies, history and temp files weekly using CC Cleaner. It's free!

If only we could all be as perfect as you Toob :roll:

Sorry, Jay, needing a hefty computing engine to do serious work has nothing to do with the user being more or less perfect. It's just a tool. But then, you seem to get most things wrong on purpose just to be adversarial.
