The issue here, I’m sorry to say, is that your parents dropped the ball. They were the ones responsible for your health and the safety of your environment.

National parks are awesome

Sorry about that. I guess I completely missed your point that you were referring to data sharing only via the new “agreement” getting foisted on people. Fingers crossed it doesn’t get into Merlin.

Here are some screenshots from my router administration pages. Notice the “Powered by Asuswrt-Merlin”.

In the first image you can see that I have a particular feature disabled.

When I toggle it on I receive a warning that my information will be collected by Trend Micro.

I included another screenshot showing the location where I would withdraw my consent to having my data collected, were I to actually use the advanced features of the router, that I thought I was paying for at the point of sale. Instead I was apparently paying for the privilege of having the option dangled in front of me, behind an agreement for yet another, separate company to collect my family’s data.

The data sharing happens on merlin too

The data sharing persists even with merlin. I get a prompt about it as soon as I tried to enable those advanced features. I still get updates though.

Green Day wrote an album about you

That’s a good point, I actually have not. I came to that conclusion based on the reviews I’ve read.

I may have purchased that exact item from Amazon a few months ago. It is 100% worth saving up for a bit to purchase something this good. Debian stable is fully supported. It’s currently just my streaming client but it’s pretty powerful and sips power compared to off lease desktops or even laptops.

It’s a bit late in the game to drum up support for third party candidates. Republicans have been playing the long game and pushing local elections hard right for years, decades even. You can’t jump in a few months before elections and expect to make any difference other than ensuring the Republican base wins again.

Ranked choice is the only solution.

If you date him, wouldn’t you be settling?

He’s getting upset and aggravated because of who you are and the things you want out of life. A good partner candidate would try to help you achieve those things instead of try to change those things about you.

Have you tried Linux?

I’m not centuries old but I’ve used it to refer to individuals when I didn’t know their gender, and also when it wasn’t necessary to indicate gender to determine who I was talking about.

I’m almost fifty and went to private schools if it helps.

Do you not read much or something? I’ve been using both singular and plural “they” my whole life.

The right wing has spent generations embedding themselves into corridors of power, from the local school board up to and including the supreme court.

A huge number of the left wing typically don’t even vote. So then when the left do get energized but it’s not enough to stem the tide or accomplish too much, because they didn’t invest in the long game… then they start this hyper-ideological, cultural revolution style thinking. It’s exhausting.

Folks, your opponents put in the effort while you just showed up for the test.

There are only so many ways to get the kind of society that works, and far too many ways for it to go wrong. It’s kind of a crazy idea to think that burning it down and starting over would be beneficial.

Are we doing the Ron Paul thing again?
