They vom it.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Windows, is in fact, Firefox/Windows, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Firefox plus Windows. Windows is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another component of a fully functioning Firefox system made useful by the Firefox browser, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS.

Many computer users run a modified version of the Firefox system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of Firefox which is widely used today is often called Windows, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the Firefox system, developed by Mozilla.

There really is a Windows, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Windows is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Windows is normally used in combination with the Firefox operating system: the whole system is basically Firefox with Windows added, or Firefox/Windows. All the so-called Windows distributions are really distributions of Firefox/Windows!

Between this closed door and the startling attics, and needing coffee, I feel trapped and sick. I look for a key, a note, anything which could help me find the sense of all this.

I try to get our to look at the mailbox. Maybe there's a name on it?

Maybe there's an orchard or a vegetable garden outside? I look out a window.

I look for something to eat.

Thank you Marcus Aurelius

Fantasy is right-leaning while SF is left-leaning. Easy peasy.

No need for toilet paper 😅

I begun judo a few weeks ago. The teacher was clear: it may not be useful in actual fight, but we don't fight often in the real life. But it's great for your body, spirit and it will teach you how to fall without hurting yourself. And these things are way more useful than self defense.

And before that, pooping was a social function .

That's exactly what an IT person would say to hide the fact they watch what I do on my computer!

So how would the judges be appointed under this system and why is it better than having them chosen from the people?

By competition and diploma. A judge is a legal technician. Why elect him on political bases? We do not elect an engineer on political criteria, we take the one who seems the best among the candidates.

If the current system hasn't prevented political influence, then the method of choosing obviously isn't guaranteeing unbiased judges anyway, so what's the point in keeping it as opposed to elected judges?

What's the point to elect them?

Strong and diverse press, strong and enforced rules against politically motivated decisions. A judge should know that, if they don't strictly follow the law, they'll lose their job. This won't make the thing perfect, but far better than officially political judges.

Tax the churches indeed.

But a lot of churches aren't the political propaganda arms of the GOP, you just don't hear about 'em.

The GBC was my first console (I had the green one), I feel so much nostalgia seeing these!

But the price is far to high for my little pockets.

He heard the story, but he didn't see the episode, so he reconstructed it as he imagined it.

I will find you.

I'm not American but I tend to agree with you. However this article is still quite interesting because it explains why this kind of rhetorics works, even with “normal” people. Sexism is structural and cultural, not only personal.
