I'm already low-consumption, but my personal boycott of any site using shopify, which straight up has all integrations in their js you can inspect, has lowered my consumption even further. I've been emailing stores asking them to switch to bigcommerce, or whatever, and stop sharing their customers' data. Never get answers, though I never expect any.
Switching over to another ecommerce provider is a massive undertaking. It’s like if someone asked you to move your residence because the smoke from your bbq hurts their lungs
That's something for the product vendors to worry about, stop thinking about them and focus on the impact to your life. Is the music festival really worth being chained to a computer you have no control over?

If USPSTF has refused, either intentionally refused or through incompetence, to make a recommendation in its 40 year history that would have an outsize effect on preventive healthcare, then not only good riddance, but kick every single one its members out of academia and pull their licenses.

padilla's 30-second vm is an abomination, and I've spent many calls telling him how much I despise him and trying to make 30 second versions of what we need him to be doing. also, the vm is also only available 900-1800 eastern time, otherwise you can't leave a vm. at least schiff has 24/7 vm and gives you 2 minutes to get your message said.
