How Political Campaigns Use Your Data to Target You, and What You Can Do to Protect Your Privacy in c/[email protected]

I'm all for it. I'm not sure what laws actually exist in the USA related to this, which is, I imagine, why it's so pervasive. Some states have started passing legislation to help their residents protect their privacy, but until we have something on a national level it's going to be an issue.

Even though it seems like common sense, our current society is ruled by profit and extraction, not decency. Throwing CEOs and boards in prison with a lot of publicity sure could be a way to change that...

Also, most people use blades for more than one day's shave. I think more like 3 - 7, depending on the blade and how picky the shaver (I get more than seven shaves per blade).

You have a magic pill, which de-ages you by 20 years. You can take it once in your life only, so long as you are at least 20. What age — past, current or future — do you reckon is best to take it? in c/[email protected]

There are a surprising number of people here under the impression that they knew anything by the age of 20.

Did any coal-in-your-stocking type of things happen to you on Christmas Day? in c/[email protected]

Any chance it's corked? I don't know if that's the correct term, but is the cork light grey / moldy? I've purchased a few bottles that were like that, but I think the flavor was affected in those cases.

Alternatively, any chance you're in the NY vicinity? 🙂
