While you're off, if you like classic literature, I can recommend Henry David Thoreau's "Walden" to get more in touch with yourself, nature, and the world around you.

I'd recommend that you take a look at how other democracies do it. Especially the economically and socially successful countries in Europe. The US can learn a lot. But to one side of the aisle that's "radical socialism."

As California goes, so goes the nation. Conservatives don't like this.
If it wasn't for the high cost of living, I'd move to California as well. Still hope I'll make it there some day.

And finally imagine you in a place like that.
You don't even have to imagine. That's the reality of the United States in 2023 and has been for a long time.

Over the past 30 years, technology has taken extensive leaps forward. Except for printers and printer drivers. Still stuck in 1990.

Sounds like you live in a place with very hard water and you're having problems with mineral deposits.
If so, try dishwater salt (not table salt) or vinegar.

Definitely. But that's not the point of the article.
From what I can tell, this is the point:
In the New York Times/Siena poll released last week, Biden failed to win majority support from non-white voters who hadn't graduated from college.
-- His lead over Trump with this once-heavily Democratic constituency is just 16 points (49%–33%).
-- In 2020, Biden dominated Trump with these voters, winning by an overwhelming 48-point margin, according to an analysis by the Democratic data firm Catalist.
-- Obama won non-white working-class voters by a whopping 67-point margin in 2012.

"I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?" Trump remarked at a campaign stop at Dordt College in Sioux Center, Iowa. "It's, like, incredible."

I like Jerboa and I was happy using it until Sync arrived. Still, there's just nothing even close to the Sync experience for me.
Edit: Not sure why people are downvoting this. It's a news report, not an opinion piece.
This stood out to me: The poll comes also as Republicans hold a slight partisan edge over Democrats, which shows that 45% of Americans are Republican or lean-Republican, while 42% are Democrat or lean-Democratic, per Gallup. That's a change from previous years, including in 2022, when an equal number of Americans said they consider themself a Republican or a Democrat. Democrats held a partisan edge over Republicans in 2020, 2018 and 2016, per the average of Gallup party affiliation polls from those years.
