Why do you need to be rich for gnuplot? Aren't gnu things generally GPL?

Isn't bootstrap owned by Twitter? I love what they're doing but I don't really know if they need more money

How is your experience with buyer disputes? That's the biggest issue I hear about on ebay

You completly ignored everything that I said

This is something I've thought as well, an easy example would be abortion - one group thinks that abortion is literally murdering a child, another thinks that it's an inalienable right that a woman has to preform any operation to her own body. There's no way to make both these people happy at the same time.
There are a lot of logistic issues, though, I doubt this will ever happen.

The mitigating circumstances are the un-nessicary stress and responsibilities of dealing with anyone who doesn't 100% agree with what you're saying. Unfortunately these are pervasive on pretty much any platform you are on, so there's no good way around it.

I just looked through the headers of a request to google.com, expecting this to be wrong, but it does look like this is there! Right at the bottom, x-client-data. The value ends with == which makes me think it's some kind of hash. Crazy. It does not exist when I use ungoogled chromium, firefox, or even edge.

Other than Apple, who pretty much only support apple products (Which are not used by a statistical majority of the global population), what real alternatives are there? I think most people are looking for google maps, not HERE maps, when they search "maps"

Why did you assume that's what this would be?

Those are for people who are specifically not here legally and therefore don't recieve the full protection of our constitution and laws. While I vehemently disagree with these camps, there's no reason to assume a re-born America's laws would apply to people who are not citizens/legally accepted into its borders. A fix for these camps would be to guarantee the same protections we Americans enjoy to people who come here illegally, which can be accomplished using the current framework we have today.

>but the more I've thought about it over the years, the more I've realized there's almost no aspect of American life worth preserving
There is so much about America that is worth preserving. One easy example right off the top of my head is the law and culture that enables people to peacefully demonstrate like they are today. Even discussing the idea of doing this in many countries could get you killed - or worse! That's another amazing thing (again, just off the top of my head), in America the worst punishment we have is death, and even that is outlawed in many places. The idea of an internment camp[0][1] is not even considered.
