I keep trying to get myself ready for the future, and I keep failing.
On the other hand things like this used to scare me to death, and now they only give me the screaming heebie-jeebies. So I guess that’s “progress”?
Or not?

Good news for consumers! @JRosenworcelFCC announced she's circulating the cable/satellite "anti-junk fee" item for a vote this meeting. Hopefully we can get 5-0 on honest billing!
https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-398618A1.pdfWhen we speak of successful U.S. industrial policy, my first answer is the 1956 AT&T antitrust consent decree, which spurred American general computing (eg, IBM) AND more or less created a US semiconductor industry. My second pushing the IBM unbundling of software.
The @FCC took action to help survivors of domestic abuse separate from shared phone plans. As @NicholasPGarcia explains, "One of the horrors of abuse is isolation... these rules help ensure that our comms services work to protect & empower survivors." đź“°:
Today we take a necessary step forward in protecting our nation’s survivors. By creating connections through Lifeline and providing an opportunity to reach out for help without being tracked, we are extending critical assistance during a time when help is most needed.
All items adopted unanimously. So what's behind the curtain Johnny?
Need not be scared!
You’re neglecting the vast piles of dough to be made and oh the fun in making it. It’d be great for the economy. And think of the MadAve angle: Tired of choking on pretzels?NEW! INTELLICHIPS! From Wise, of course. Betcha can’t implant just one! Not happy with the two-party system? Pop ‘em in your mouth and they’ll do the rest! One blissful party for life!
And heart healthy – No Hydrogenated Oils!
JRS – on a more serous note I finished Apostles some months ago. Johnny I was taken right in. Hack? Beggin your pardon but You ain’t no hack. Hope all is well.
Why thank you. And I need a shot of confidence as I’m pretty wraped up in book number three right now. It’s hard to make oneself write a novel unless one is convinced one really does have what it takes to do it. . .
