Agreed.
I think the root cause of the problem is that each side promotes an extreme position. There is no moderate candidate anymore.
Perhaps we need a third party but the game is rigged against them.

The Democrats gave us Trump Rev. 2.
The first time, it was "anyone but Hillary".
This time, it was "anyone but Biden or Harris".
The Old Guard of the Democrats still isn't cultivating an electable candidate. All we get are reruns of the old farts and Willie Brown's concubine.

It marked the latest in a series of incidents involving Starship rockets. On Jan. 16, one of the massive rockets broke apart in what the company called a “rapid unscheduled disassembly,” sending trails of flaming debris near the Caribbean. Two months later, Space X lost contact with another Starship during a March 6 test flight as the spacecraft broke apart, with wreckage seen streaming over Florida."

Employees were told to move to Texas. If not, they assumed they didn't want to work for the company anymore. If you quit, no unemployment.

I use it because Amazon Video won't play with my old version of the Chrome browser running on Win7 on my "TV computer". It will run on Firefox. That's all I use the computer for so I'm not worried about "security" with an old version of Windows. When it stops working, I'll move it to Linux Mint.
