i saw a post a little while ago that was so shocking I had to look into it further. These stats on literacy are really disturbing.

"The choice this election, he explained, boils down to this: โThere is only the perpetuation, however flawed and feeble you might perceive it, of our fragile 249-year-old experiment, or the entropy that will engulf and destroy us if we take the other route.โ"

@Gargron How do you do it? In Chrome, I'm used to right-clicking on the tab and then having a choice of which window I want to move it to. Do I need to reduce the windows enough that I can drag tabs between them? Or is there an easier way?
@Gargron I've been using Firefox primarily for several months now. But one thing I miss from Chrome is the ability to move an open tab to another window that's already open (not just move it to a new window). Also putting a label on a group of tabs. I'm one of these people who always has a gazillion tabs and several windows open. (Maybe I need to cure myself of that habit.)
There are some Firefox features I like, though, that Chrome doesn't have.
@roadriverrail Quite possibly. Just anecdotally, my grandmother was cooler and less prudish than my mother.
@zombierustpunk Haha. Right.
Another way to look at this, though, is that every generation gets increasingly more shocking/ pushes the envelope a little further. Stuff we take for granted or shrug off now was radical back in the day. They wouldn't show Elvis (the Pelvis) below the waist on tv. ๐
