Subject: Fire

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to inform you of a fire that has broken out on the premises of 123 Cavendon Road

**no, that's too formal.**

Fire! Fire! Help me! 123 Cavendon Road. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours truly, Maurice Moss.

Yes. The Dems lost this election more than the Reps won it.

And no, it's not just Harris. It's the fact they haven't accomplished anything substantially changing the lives of people for dozens of years, and they fought more against people like Sanders than people like Cheney.

Yeah, the real difference is that Iron Man did more work in a 3-hour movie than Musk in his whole life.

How is Israel relevant in a trade dispute between Russia and Kazakhstan?

And that's why you need a union.

At this point I really can’t understand what is driving Orban anymore.

If he stops stealing, his empire collapses, and he (or his family who are also involved) might even see some form of consequences. The EU does not let him steal any more, hence the openness to the East.

With normal people at least.

This war is one of the largest tragedies of our years, and none of the soldiers on either side deserve to die in those trenches, but Putin almost getting couped by Prigo, then Prigo getting killed by Putin was pretty funny.

same logic

That's the point, it isn't. The good old version was built on logic where the browser would send the downloaded webpage to the extension, and uBO could weed out ads and trackers, and give you the sanitized version. uBOL works completely differently, as it has to ask the browser to clean it out, but the browser will ultimately decide what to actually do, and there are already limitations that impact ad blocking, as the browser won't accept enough changes to block all the different kinds of shit that comes through.

The other big difference in logic is distribution, uBO relies on outside blocklists to keep up with Google changing Youtube several times a day to keep sending you malware, in the new system, this is not allowed, so it's on Google to approve a new blocklist as fast as they do their changes - they won't.

It's going to be less capable, it's going to be exactly as capable as Google wants. It might as well be named the Google Ad Blocker if only that didn't discount the insane work the uBO team does to keep up with Google's shit.

This is a common feeling with a lot of people. Not jailing rapists and other criminals just because their daddies were wealthy breaks down the social fabric. After all, if it's everyone for themselves, why shouldn't I steal from Walmart? Why should I not commit fraud against corps? Why should I not try and murder a presidential candidate?

The public not seeing that crimes against the social contract have consequences will be the actual thing that breaks society, not gay people loving each other.

Precovid houses I could afford with a weeks pay. Now it’s the whole pay check.

You mean rent, right? Right?
