Over here, if the Democrats proposed that, the Republican counter-proposal would have been to do sweet fuck-all about it and lower the income tax rates for ISPs. Consider yourself lucky. :-)

If your current conservative government is giving you a national broadband network, I wonder what Labor would have given you. Assuming they stopped having palace coups, of course.

I'll have to check my schedule in the morning. Thursday looked pretty busy IIRC.

Just found out Bernie Sanders will be speaking at a rally within walking distance of my house on Thursday, and I'm going to be thirty miles away at work. Arrgh.

Just saw someone walking across the northbound lanes of the Ventura Freeway (US 101). Can't decide if they're stupid or suicidal.

Erythritol, stevia, monk fruit extract. Also contains cane sugar but it's only 4g total sugars in the whole bottle.

If you can't have sugar, this stuff is the bomb.

@kdfrawg Exactly. And many ebooks are only half-heartedly edited and formatted to begin with, or the publisher has automated it and not checked it.

@kdfrawg For me it started when I bought an ebook with stupid margins, an ugly font and annoying typos, and decided there had to be a way to fix it. One thing led to another, and now I'm routinely converting .epub to .azw3, stripping out annoying fonts, forcing my preferred justification, and so forth.

@kdfrawg I'd volunteer to try it myself, but I'm not exactly the average e-book reader, I think it's fair to say. ?
