God I used to love those 20 years ago. Course they didn’t look like that back then.

And now I know how to scratch a pangolin, should the need ever arise.

Obvious parody is obvious.

Explain this to me, do they write letters to people who have opted in, or do they just target people based on publicly available information? Cause if I lived in a swing state and started getting random letters from people trying to convince me to vote one way or the other I’d probably vote the other direction just to spite them. I already get too much election spam letters because election mailings are exempt from the spam laws.

Was invited out on a Friday to celebrate my bosses birthday early since she would be out of town on her actual birthday a week later. That Friday was my actual birthday. My boss had made a point to do something for every one of her employees birthdays, so I assumed this was a ploy to get me out for my birthday. Nope.

I mean, they sell them at Costco, I’d hardly call that unknown. They’re less common because most people just don’t need them.

I’m not sure why you think “being on the fence is an interesting position to take”, I’m glad there are people out there who have the skills to look at the code and see if it’s doing what people claim it is doing or not, I am not one of them. I just want a browser that doesn’t treat me like a piggy bank and less ads. I don’t know the developers reputation and simply asked for more knowledgeable people to chime in, sorry if that’s a problem for you.

Mozilla says the addon has problems, the developer says it doesn’t. Are there any 3rd parties that can weigh in on this?

Yeah that’s the one I used. They also sell great antennas to fund the app/promoting ham radio usage. https://signalstuff.com/

To go along with all the people mentioning the need for a license for ham radio: there is a study app with literally all the questions that might be on the test and it’s all multiple choice. Just keep answering the questions till you remember enough of em.

I miss Crystal Coke.

“One ruler to rule them” is a bit repetitive but I’ll allow it.

Call me pisher but I’m not sure I’m on board with fighting terrorism with more terrorism.

The only part of your biased, self-serving spin on everything I said which I agree with is the part where you said you are not deserving to be a mod.

That conveniently ignores what the actual issue was, since if Beaver had replied to the request to discuss those actions with the other mods we wouldn’t be having this discussion. Not consulting with other mods before making COMMUNITY decisions was, to my mind, the main reason for being demoded.

Well I’m not a mod and I didn’t demod you, but from my opinion of how it played out A, you immediately jumped to Beavers defense and said you didn’t have a problem banning people for downvoting, B, immediately tried to downplay them not responding to the mod request to discuss that action, C, based on how you’re responding here sound completely unfit to be a mod which should require a certain level of maturity, and of course D the possibility that you’re an alt.

I mean the fact that the 3 of you have a particularly similar aggressive nature and after leaving 1 post all came here to keep up the exact same kind of bitchiness is not helping your argument.

Beaver started banning people for downvoting posts. A fellow mod reached out to Beaver to say that had not been the policy and if they wanted that to be the policy going forward the mods would need to discuss it. Beaver then ignored the request to discuss the new policy that Beaver arbitrarily decided on. The issue here seems to be Beaver, period.
