That's the foot at the door. Third parties is some steps down that road. Ubuntu/Canonical has been erratic for quite some time now. Time to get back to a non-company backed up distro.

The problem with that is that it finds you (if ever) too late to be of any use. Not the OP but in a similar situation.

You'd expect so (and I'd hope so) but nope. Drivers become even more reckless. Driving huge, noise-insulated cars seems to put them in the mindset of total control, detachment from actual speed and "I'm not gonna hurt my

Good explanation but not what I'd perceive from a post asking for grit. FWIW I'd think what the OP thinks (and shy away).

what have we learned from a decade of dating apps? Basically to not use them. Same thing we learned with a lot of other "social" services.

Does what happened seem just to you? That form of passion that you disapprove comes from failing to serve justice in the first place. Do you have any better proposal than to just keep going like this and be sorry for the observers that end
