Hey, I qualify! I am a very bizarre person. But, you and MJ probably know that better than most here. [quote user="Denise"] [quote user="Batman"]They do have a privacy statement, where they do the typical "We value your privacy..." But, still, Google and linkIn get all your information. At least, thats how I interpret all the yada yada yada statements

Thank you. So, the purpose is legit then, for captcha purposes? That's fair enough. As stated, some things are legit, but, to the average user, well, we don't know what the purposes are, and they may be innocent, and they may not be. I have a suspicion that anything dealing with Google, LinkIn or Facebook is less than innocent. Downright scary even

It does seem that FL being one of the last survivors in the field of Bible software should

I believe the answer to both is no. But, I am not 100% positive. [quote user="MJ. Smith"] [quote user="Batman"]So, WHY should they get automatic rights to me?[/quote] Do they? Does blacklight distinguish between sites that conditionally receive data and those that automatically receive data? There is a big difference. Second question: does lacklight

This is more of a bringing to light question. As I believe I mention in my original post, I have reviewed the privacy statement, and state that it does mention, at least somewhat, much of this. But, I do believe this is an area that should be extremely transparent by Logos, and really all webpages and sites. [quote user="Graham Criddle"] I don't have

Oops. I keep seeing it as backlight, so I type it as such. I did a test on their page too. Of course, they claim nothing on their site. They say: You have scanned the website for The Markup, the nonprofit news organization that built the very tool you are using to scan our website. Howdy! You may have noticed that our website came up totally clean.

Everyone knows, or should know, that there is no such thing as privacy today. What I do not understand is WHY? We all know (or should know) Facebook and Google track us across the pages of the internet, with uncountable others snooping. Granted, most of this is probably more benign than not; but, the question remains: WHY? Why do WE allow all these

Benny, Take it from personal experience, One MUST use training if they are not going to be a bitter Logos user! I am not the poorest person on earth, by any stretch of the imagination; but, my income does qualify as below the poverty level. I struggle financially and find paying for training to be excessive and expensive and mind boggling. WHY pay

[quote user="abondservant"] hahaha interesting! Sounds on par with those old BMG mailers that promised 12 free cd's if you purchased 2, and then you'd get 4 more. or something like that. Website sounds terrible! [/quote] website is the worst Ive run across, and hope I dont find one that beats it's record. lol BMG and Columbia. Man, I miss those days
-
[quote user="abondservant"] Just curious, if this is the second worst, whats the worst? [/quote] I always hated most, if not all car websites. Car parts sites, anyway. But, the absolute worst, to date, is emusic. I love extended versions, remixes, club hits, along those lines-- in case you are unfamiliar with them, they originally started in the late

[quote user="Denise"] [quote user="Batman"]I dont understand decisions companies make to do stupid things like this[/quote] I think Amazon is similar? Or worse ... they also load in their ad-driven items at the top, which my browser rejects by definition (ad-server). Home Depot is easier ... service people know what they need. No patience. I discovered

[quote user="SineNomine"] [quote user="Batman"]Now, when we hit back, it scrolls all the way back to the beginning! [/quote] No, it does not. It scrolls back to the top of the page, whether that is page one or page ten. [/quote] That would be affirmative. All the way back to the beginning of the previous page. The top; not to page 1 if I'm on page 37

WHO on earth thinks this messy and sloppy new search is so good, never used it BEFORE shoving it at us! It's HORRIBLE, possibly the second worst search engine EVER! I'm trying to look up books, BUT, instead of a great search engine, it's even worse than before! A good search engine or website does NOT make you tick a box AND start all over! Stupidest

[quote user="abondservant"] oof, that is a long wait batman. I have the same computer then as now, and I remember running speed tests comparing the two versions (7 and 8). The result was 8 was twice as fast I think. They have definitely improved in that area. Logos starts (with lots of collections, and resources, and visual filters, etc) in 5 seconds
-
[quote user="Denise"] [quote user="Batman"]But, one of the biggest things they fixed was making L8 more user friendly and faster. MUCH faster. On my old computer I went from over 3 minutes to under 90 seconds! I was elated. New computer, it's now 20-30 second boot time. [/quote] As I understand it, Gotham City HQ was not happy with you at all (smiling

[quote user="Nathan Tyler"]Of all Bible software I have tried, Logos is the slowest to start. Despite various tricks that you can try (I do not have a large library). Someone here mentioned 20 seconds is pretty normal.This is what I'm also experiencing, so I don't think mine is unusually slow compared to others. Is it too much to ask to significantly
-
I hate to say this, but, then again, no I dont. When I first learned of Logos it was 3. I'm not wealthy. I was not wealthy then. Actually, I was less than a year from unemployment, of the devestating type, and making below poverty level income. I had been purchasing digital Bibles for several years, and ran into Logos and Bible Works. I asked if logos

HA! Now that sounds like my "luck". [quote user="David Wanat"] Probably one day after the cutoff for my big purchases in 8 to count as credit for 9 😉 [/quote]

Andrew, Thanks. finally almost done. yay! [quote user="Andrew Batishko (Faithlife)"] It's doing things like syncing your documents and other data and retrieving metadata for resources. In a technical sense this is "downloading", but it's not downloading your books, so it's kept distinct. [/quote]

Mike, Thanks. Oh, this was a complete nightmare. One would think I'd be used to things by now. Im actually going minimalist on install, because I have no doubts this Dell is a PoG and will be dying again, soon. I'm not sure if I hope it's before the year's warranty is up or if it dies after, when assurion takes over. Either way, I seriously doubt it
