It was the straw that broke the camels back to get me to switch to Linux.

That's my answer too. I went a month with just trying to make basic things work. Had to go back to being productive. Now, I bought another drive and I spend time whenever I have it. Once everything works as i need it to, I'll switch full time.

Also, scale matters. If 4 posts increased to 7, that's a 75% increase I'm not concerned about. Now, 40,000 to 70,000 concerns me.

When she remarried, she kept the name too. Her new husband not so happy about it, but it was clear she ruled that relationship.

Because one of the few things he actually understands is he is not immortal, so he's trying to make a legacy. Hence, literally offering his sperm to anyone who wants it, and not caring about anything other than making sure his name is at the top of everything he is even mildly interested in.

When my parents got divorced, my mother didn't change her last name. She said it was her name most of her adult life and didn't feel the need to revert to her childhood name.

It already can.

There are some places where an inability to pay fines, can result in a warrant and imprisonment.

8% now. 20 years ago, it was a third of that. If there is profit to be made, profit will be made. It's also just one small factor in an extremely shitty whole.

The fact prison labour exists at all is an issue. If prisoners truly benefited from it, like a fair wage plus every day reducing their sentence, then I could hold my nose, but as is. Slavery.

This is proof they don't understand the endgame here. The only (legal) type of slavery left in the United States is prisoner labour. It is not a coincidence that the right wants to make so many things criminal. It's also not a coincidence they want to keep poor people desperate because it makes them more likely to commit crime. It's not a coincidence they support minimum sentences.

More crime, more free labour, more for profit prisons selling services.....

Because it's never been about anything other than control. The right to choose anything is abhorrent to them. The only rights they want you to have are the right to be dictated to and the right to be like them.
