I attended my first protest the other day and I was cringing nearly the whole time. That whole scene needs better organization, less rambling / more professional sounding speakers, and an image overhaul.

I doubt it. There are way more error states than there are good states.

If you can get bankrupted by an illness, you're not rich.

That we can't afford to use because we don't have a safety net.

My net worth is probably just under half a million but I'll be working until I'm over 70 if I want to be able to pass anything useful down to my kids.

I have one with special needs that likely won't be able to work, much less manage a portfolio.Without my help he could be homeless soon after I pass.

My upper middle class family in Houston drinks it all the time. Yes they're all die hard conservatives.

Condoms let people that don't want to have kids, choose not to have kids, while protecting against a huge number of life altering or life threatening diseases. Why is that a problem for you?

Graphics worked out of the box for me. In order to get wifi running I needed more recent firmware. IIRC, all I had to do was drop the file in.

So just an extra dose of whataboutism.

I don't plan to respond to anything else from you here.

You seem to forget that the Democrats ran against Trump. The extent to which they willingly "sat down with" him is the extent to which they were obligated. They weren't blithely enjoying his company at the table, they were arguing with him at it.

I suspect you know the difference and that you're arguing in bad faith.

Oh I'm not advocating that you switch distributions. If you're happy with performance there's no reason to change.

The only thing that gives me pause with outdated drivers is the possibility of being exposed to unpatched security vulnerabilities. But in my experience Debian does provide updates when it's critical.

Presumably because things like Mesa and video drivers would be somewhat out of date
