Now Johnny, stop thinking ahead of the class and wait for everyone to catch up…

When I was young, I was naive to the ways of romance, and especially romantic communication. I was often oblivious to advances made upon me, and awkward and unskilled at making any expression of interest without just looking a bit foolish. However, after a lot of experience and many ups and downs in the pursuit of love, I find that I am no longer young.

You’re definitely doing it. And you’re right, things are getting ripe for a FOSSolution Revolution. I was just curious about the dependency upon US software, and it seems like you are committed to finding your way through. At the heart, my interest in all of this (beyond my own digital privacy and freedom) is that, in my own opinion, a lot of dangerous things happening within the US (and elsewhere) and knowing the world is reacting is the ray of hope.

Don’t get me wrong - I am a US Citizen, and I still love the land I live on. As misguided and morally questionable as the “Founding Fathers” appear in our times, I still believe in some of the notions they espoused, like Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. I just don’t know that those notions have any connection to what grew from that seed, at least for the main of the populace. Anyway, thanks for the reply, and best of luck to you. Hopefully, one day, We The People might be a real thing.

Just wondering… and I am being genuine, how do you handle software/digital life issues while boycotting the US? The answer may well be obvious, and if so, I apologize for the dumb question.

Anyone remember Adam Toledo?
