They're the big boxes in the road with broken windows

I am aware of the gun ownership of one liberal person whom I know personally. I only found out because when they gave me a tour of their house, I noticed a small decorative item in their closet and asked about it. The item itself was a gift from their family member.

Every Republican I know who owns a gun, OWNS SEVERAL GUNS VERY LOUDLY AND PROUDLY GOD BLESS AMERICA.

I agree with you, but this response is not at all helpful or pertinent to the question asked.

Two-thirds of gun-related deaths are suicides. This obsession enables people who are hurting and struggling to end their lives, and in some cases, the lives of many people around them first.

As a tech worker, good for them. Why would I be opposed to someone else getting paid more, especially if they're being paid by a private company whose services I enjoy?

It can be really tough adjusting to the CPAP. And even if you'd slept with it properly, there's no guarantee you'd feel great in the morning. Many people take weeks or months to see significant results as they make for lost sleep. That was the case for me. I still struggle with it but I'm doing better now.

I'm not sure what you mean by the machine suffocating you, but it could be a couple of things. One, if you don't have ramp on, it'll turn on full blast first thing which can be...jarring. It's possible that your mask isn't fitted correctly or that it just isn't a good match for you. That's ok! That's why we have people to help us fit them and many masks to choose from.

I'm not sure what machine you have, but if you can put an SD card in it, you might be able to get more detailed data from that.

Is your comment for or against the browser, or is it actually just about FOSS in general?

About six years ago, I changed the password to a secondary email account I had and promptly forgot it. I mostly used that email address for junk, but it was connected to some accounts that I either still used or wanted to delete. Over the past several years, I have tried every password I could think of or find scribbled on a scrap of paper somewhere. I attempted account recovery, then advanced account recovery (where a human reviews all the information I can give them about the account). When I got a job at the company that runs this email service, I tried the internal account recovery method twice, but still was not able to convince them that it was my account.

A few weeks ago, I tried a new writing exercise. I got an old, empty notebook and started writing. I turned the page, and there it was written: the username and password to this account.

Sometimes answers appear in unexpected places. I hope you figure out your password.

Did you even read the whole article or just skim it until you got uncomfortable with the condemnation of homophobia? First of all, the issue isn't that Brendan Eich donated to a right-wing cause, it's that he supports a cause with the goal of stripping a minority group of their rights. Second, the article goes on to explain specific shady anti-privacy, anti-content-creator, pro-crypto practices and builds a strong case against using the browser that's completely separate from Eich's personal failure to be a decent person.
