They want to get rid of ad blockers? They should base on the same model that keeps me away: namely, that Facebook is repulsive and useless.

The only way I'd watch Tucker Carlson on purpose is in a cage fight with Mike Tyson. Pay-per-view is fine, but I'll travel if I have to.

I used to live there a long time ago. It wasn't terribly stable then. It's sad that it's only gotten worse. It's a beautiful place, with some of the kindest people I've ever known. I hope they find a way out of this.

I'm not so sure about that. It took me forever yesterday to get my international keyboard setup to work on Ubuntu the way I wanted it to. I'm saying that as someone who's been using Unix/Linux in a school, IT and home setting for 30 years. It was unforgivably difficult.
