Character set: I read the choice to be between ASCII only and non-ASCII only.  That is, if you select non-ASCII only then you have no ordinary English letters, no decimal digits, no ordinary punctuation.  Rather minimally useful.
:: Non-unicode can show ordinary English letters, for example the group starting at U+FF0x, but an ASCII system will see it as binary garbage that will generate unexpected beeps, corrupt terminals, and crash old software.

ASCII, '''OLD''' ASCII, which is characters 0-127, includes '''ONLY CAPS''', plus the common punctuation and whitespace. The lower case letters are all part of '''EXTENDED ASCII'''. So, limiting to old ASCII, is limiting to all-caps, and limiting to only the second half of ASCII is even worse, as it has all the lower case letters, but, not only no caps, but also no punctuation, whitespace, or numerals.
I'll leave it to someone with a login to make the correction.
:: {{w|ASCII}} 0-127 includes _both_ uppercase and lowercase. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.78.196|162.158.78.196]] 20:23, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
::: That's correct.  Note that some popular non-ASCII home computers, such as the Commodore 64 (which used {{w|PETSCII}}), did only include uppercase letters within the first 127, or only lowercase letters, depending on the screen "shift" mode, with the 8th bit used to either give the other case or add additional special line drawing, circle, or playing card symbols.

Show unread email count: Wording in the graphic is ambiguous for me.  Does show unread email count on my projected day of death mean a) show, today, what will be the count on my projected day of death, or b) wait to show any count until the very day I will probably to die.  Choice a is indeed probably depressing.  Choice b is more of a pop-up surprise if you didn't know it was coming, saying Hey, buddy, here's your final score, well done.

:: I interpreted the unread email count as you laid out in option "b," this could be a reference to the relatively new features of social networks which create "memorialized" profiles for members who died. This number would undoubtedly be like a memorial, provided you actually died on that day. If you didn't die it would be like a pop-up. It could also be a simple exaggeration of the statement that you'd rather not see your number, as seeing the number is depressing.

I was going to edit the page with specifics on when html e-mail came into use, because I was sure I was using/experimenting with html in e-mail as early as 20 years ago. But looking at the wikipedia page on the topic seems to suggest that the adoption was much sooner than that, but I can still remember using html when I was a teenager, so I'm not sure what's going on here...

::I certainly remember sending emails with HTML formatting back in the late 90's. IIRC, I was using Netscape Communicator(?) and it used html snippets in an otherwise ascii email. At my first job in the early oughts, I had to manage an email subscription list for a newsletter that used mime-encoded multipart html emails. Not all the subscribers could see the html part, and I think AOL users often got gibberish due to bad support for mime-encoded messages in the AOL email client. --[[Special:Contributions/172.68.46.77|172.68.46.77]] 16:00, 20 April 2019 (UTC)

Seems to be that since the first option says 'reply functionality' the option which says 'Forward to Address Book' does not allow you to type a reply. Rather than 'forwarding your reply to your address book' I believe this would simply forward the email to everyone in your address book. Make sense as a joke at the expense of people who just forward emails/email chains. [[Special:Contributions/172.69.44.144|172.69.44.144]] 16:26, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

Despite what the explanation currently indicates, "reply all" definitely means reply to all recipients of the original email. [[Special:Contributions/172.69.70.59|172.69.70.59]] 21:15, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

Any idea why the dialog uses a Right-to-Left (RTL) formatting? [[Special:Contributions/141.101.99.131|141.101.99.131]] 18:14, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
:Having the text right next to the radiobuttons/tickboxes makes it much easier to identify which button belongs to which setting.--[[User:Lupo|Lupo]] ([[User talk:Lupo|talk]]) 04:42, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
:I agree with the previous reply, but I think you mean "right-aligned" formatting instead of "RTL" formatting, which usually means the letters are actually ordered from right to left in reverse order. I don't think radio buttons are typically displayed on the right side of the label though. [[User:Ianrbibtitlht|Ianrbibtitlht]] ([[User talk:Ianrbibtitlht|talk]]) 11:46, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Wanted to open this discussion here with other nerds...does anybody else cringe at the idea that "What are all these less than signs" implies a lack of greater than signs? Presumably a number of greater than signs would be just as concerning, or it implies that there are a significant number of erroneous less than signs.

== Google and vacation ==

Google knows when you're on vacation by comparing your present cellphone GPS coordinates to your typical gps coordinates. They also always know your location via IP, to some extent. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.242.23|108.162.242.23]] 02:50, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

== Blood Sugar Stabilizer Review ==

Definition Unlike those with Type [https://dietsheriff.com/blood-sugar-stabilizer-review/ Blood Sugar Stabilizer ] I Diabetes, Type II Diabetics produce insulin. Type II Diabetes glucose spikes occur when the pancreas doesn't produce enough insulin or where there is a lack of insulin sensitivity. The lack of insulin sensitivity is known as insulin resistance. Insulin resistance produces excess glucose that circulates throughout the body. It leads to damaged nerves and small blood vessels in the eyes, kidneys, and heart. The body's health is further compromised when it then becomes dehydrated. Type II is the most common form of diabetes, affecting 90-95% of the 26 million American Diabetics. Cause & Effect There is some debate in the scientific community about the causes of this increase. Most nutritionists would agree that diet is mostly, if not entirely to blame. It is also influenced by a lack of physical activity. 

There are two main drivers of this new insulin resistance: Increased oxidative stress. Sugars with high glycemic indexes, especially high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). The body's high oxidative stress environment is explained in our NAFLD post. These factors are interrelated as toxins present in the body compromise the intestinal wall overwhelming the liver and immune system resulting in oxidative stress. This type of oxidative stress disrupts sensitivity to insulin in the body. The terms to describe this condition are known as Metabolic Syndrome 6 or Diabesity. This is in addition to the chronic inflammation oxidative stress causes and leads to a multitude of other health issues.

Metabolic Syndrome is defined by common pathologies: obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Recent studies have also concluded that high fructose corn syrup has a similar outcome in reducing insulin sensitivity. The use for HFCS has increased 1000% in the past 40 years. Recently the food industry introduced agave a 'natural' as an alternative to sugar. Unfortunately, agave has an even higher glycemic index and might even accelerate this process. In response to this the American Diabetic Association has recommended that agave be limited in diabetic diets.
