These smart smokers can't be smart because if they were smart then they
would know that this newsgroup is for discussing Windows 10 problems
and trepidations.

On the other hand, they are smart enough to destroy this newsgroup like
they have done to (alt.os.linux) where you hardly see any body posting
anything.

And yet, somehow, with all the noise, your post got though.
USENET has been being destroyed and it's imminent demise predicted since
1993.

My news client is starting to slow down a bit when
it hits that thread. 1480 and counting.

That is true. Some groups have disappeared but some are still
thriving.

I thought YouTube was was it for intelligent discussion until
about six months ago when Google decided to trash all of its
user moderation features, including mutual blocking. Now it
has gone back to being a cesspool of foulmouthed senseless
trolls.

It's got so bad that I've taken to just deleting
any Apple or smoker posts to start off. That at
least ensures that they all appear at the bottom
as new threads, easy to skip.

The headers of your post do not divulge which NNTP client you use to
access the Usenet. Perhaps you need to get a better NNTP client, one
that lets you define filters. Then YOU can decide YOUR view of Usenet.
If you are too lazy to define filters then you get what others want to
give you.

I don't see any of that "smoking" noise of which you complain. I use
filters. They work very well.

They go off the side of my screen after a while, so you
can be assured I cannot read them, because I cannot click
on them. All I can see is the lead article and the article
count on the thread. And after marking "thread as read", it's
on to the next thing.

I kill file threads that are of no interest to me and so have no idea
what you are talking about.
