Normally I'd say we all celebrate your return, but reading the room and given all that is going on, it is a bit more of "misery LOVES COMPANY." (sigh)

But we are glad you are here.

The situation seems dire. But this is the " shock & awe" stage.. more performative than real.
The people in the actual line of fire are people with .gov paychecks...
Especially retirees...
Especially survivor annuitants .. the posterkids of "useless eaters."
(unfortunately, that would be me)

(Where can I get a DU app? I am physically much more able on my tablets & phones)

Here, for Apple products:

How can I create a shortcut to a website on my iPhone?
iPhone or iPad

Open Safari. Other browsers, such as Chrome, won't work for this.
Navigate to the website you want to save to your home screen by entering the URL of the website you want to create a shortcut to. Make sure you visit the exact page you want to open through the shortcut. Tap "Go."
Tap the Share button on the bottom of the page. It looks like a square with an arrow pointing out of the top.
In the list of options that appear, scroll down until you see Add to Home Screen. Tap this. The Add to Home Screen dialog box will appear.
Choose a name for the website shortcut on your home screen. You'll see the link so you can confirm it, as well as the site's favicon that will appear as the "app" icon on your home screen. Click Add when you're done. Safari will close automatically and you will be taken to where the icon is located on your iPhone's or iPad's home screen.
Now just tap the new "app" or shortcut on your home screen, and it will open the website in its own navigation window, independent of what you have open in Safari.

Note: If you ever decide you want to remove the website shortcut, you can delete it just like you would any other app on your phone.

I am just back today as well as I had a medical problem and was too confused to get back. We have such good Admins.

I hope you will be around for a while and that you are fine. I just came here as quick as I could to say HEY!
