Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

Lightbulb Transferring files between your smartphone and PC — the easy way

It’s an age-old story. File meets computer, computer wants to introduce file to its smartphone, computer can’t find the right feature for that. File transfer between PC and mobile devices is often a pain, yes, but it’s not impossible. Here are the most effective ways to get that content from your desktop computer to a mobile device of your choice, whether you choose to do so using your trusty USB drive or one of the many wireless methods available on today’s smartphones.

I always plug the phone in to the computer via USB and transfer that way. It's made even easier that I have a couple Linux systems on the computer and Android is Linux, too.

BUT... I could see where an app for dropping files via WiFi would be great advantage, too.

I use my own Western Digital 4 Terrabyte Cloud storage hooked up to my router, I can upload and download documents, pictures and anything I want from anywhere in the world and then retrieve them on my desktop if needed.

I just connect the phone to my computer with a USB cord and move the files. No big deal.

I've done it wirelessly but USB is faster.
