  • None as I very rarely use credit cards.

  • Don't buy Pringles.

  • Yes you can. I often ignore copyright with impunity. I've been doing it since the days of home-taping.

    EMI refused to promote the cassingle due to lyrics ("Off the radio I get constant flow/Hit it, pause it, record and play/Turn it, rewind and rub it away") that promoted home taping[7] during an era when music piracy was a hot-button issue.[8]

  • That's for too long a wait—if such ever happens.

    DIY. Be your own boss. Not all economic relationships in this world are capitalist.

  • The users already have a lot of control; many just don't use it.

    Can any of you live without Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube for one calendar month? 25 years ago, millions of Americans did, and their lives were hardly the poorer for it. 25 years before that it was over 150 million Americans, including the 12 who walked the Moon.

    (my bold)

    "To play golf is to spoil an otherwise enjoyable walk" is found in H.S. Scrivener, "Memories of Men and Meetings", in Arthur Wallis Myers (ed.) Lawn Tennis at Home and Abroad New York:Charles Scribner's Sons, 1903, p. 47. Scrivener attributes the aphorism to "my good friends the Allens". Reference from Quote Investigator.

    😁🙂

  • It depends on the Republican, and Democrat for that matter: a few Republicans are still pro-choice, and I wouldn't be surprised if the odd Democrat might be anti-choice.

    Do what some of the rich do and check out who in each office is running. Don't vote for Trump. If your state is near-solid red or blue, such as California or Utah, you might as well vote 3rd party if thon is closer to your heart. Check out who's running for governor, in your House district, Senate (if one is running), mayor, right down to dog catcher. When you're in the voting booth, you should recognize every name of every candidate: after all, you might have had 2 years to study this.

  • Fair enough, but they know what you bought.

  • Taking patent, trademark, and copyright laws to what they were in, say, 1790, might be a good start.

    Regard today's billionaires with the same contempt that one does of criminals.

    Wait at least 5 years before buying a new computer.

    Don't pay by credit card.

  • Yeah, I saw some of that video.

    It's also sad.

  • sounds good then. 🙂

  • True, but IIUC, the energy/mass of carbon might be better than diesel.

  • because some of their pictures are good. 🙂
