I love Bernie, he is one of my favorite politicians but thinking he would have won is fantasy just like Kamala was. Do you know why Obama won twice? because he has charisma, the "it" factor like a superstar. Something some people are born with, it's like they vibrate with an energy that many people gravitate towards.

Sadly and I hate to admit it, but Rump has "it", I know it's a shitty evil version but even some good people were blinded by it (although this has shown me there are a lot more stupid/evil people in this country than I imagined)

Politics is mostly a popularity contest sadly instead of policy, they should really call it Poplitics. I believe there is one among us who will rise up sometime in the next four years with this gift to continue the never ending universal fight of good versus evil if we don't all die in a Nuclear Armageddon or civil war by then.

p.s. The DNC needs to burn to the ground and the ashes need to be vaporized.

Gave it a serious try for a solid week, I cannot get pass the forced vertical tab design. Everything else was great and it would have become my main browser otherwise.

The sad thing is even if they added the option for horizontal tabs in the future I would not come back because of the inflexible forcefulness of the vertical design even after ton's of requests from the community for a horizontal option makes me feel like the dev's have a "my way or the highway" attitude that would bite me again in the future.

These are the same people who (would have) voted for Hitler because they were mad at the The Weimar Republic (liberal democratic republic) for one reason or another to send a "message" and then after either loosing everything or were killed during WWII (many by the party they voted for) afterwards said "How could of this happened" Hold your nose and vote for Kamala or don't complain when Trump is your Lord and Master.

Hello, born and raised in Florida, lived here my whole life, still living here now (life long registered democrat, never voted republican)

Do people from FL like DeSantis?

The Maga's love him because of his racism and gay bashing, outside of the Maga's most people cannot stand him, many non-maga replicans too.

impression that there are quite a large number of people in FL who are seeing the effects of climate change, I wonder if environmental policy is something that is beginning to matter

True most people are noticing effects of climate change but most republicans here, including non-maga are still in denial, I do not believe it affects voting at all in any major way... yet, I believe after a few catastrophic hurricanes votes will start to change.

I do not believe this article at all, I know many people who live in the villages (from work, family, friends, marriages etc...) and finding any number of people who would/do support Kamala is in the unicorn numbers and to openly admit it would lead to banishment.

There are a lot of Democrats in Florida, DeSantis barely won and i'm sure cheating was involved, but this state is red and seriously gerrymandered now and the corruption is at gangster level, it would take a world changing event for this state to ever be won by a Democrat President anytime in the long future.

Not all republicans are bad and not all republicans are maga, there are a lot of kind-hearted level headed people here but currently the maga's are in charge

Senator Mark Kelley (60 years old)

• U.S. Navy combat pilot (actual combat experience)
• U.S. Senator for Arizona
• NASA astronaut (actually been to space)
• B.S. degree in marine engineering and nautical science
• M.S. degree in aeronautical engineering
• Married to Gabby Giffords (remember her? maga lunatic victim)
• Both parents were police officers
• Zero controversy or baggage

Independent leader whom the middle really like and even republicans respect him. Kamala will probably make him VP pick to block him but I believe with all my instinct he could/would beat Trump

I have 0% problem voting for and supporting Kamila, but....

We are doomed! Trump will win without cheating including the House and the Senate, he will scream "Mandate" and get another term too.

This is not the America Obama won in. Do you really belive a woman of color can be elected to lead this nation at this time in this climate?

I really hope I am wrong, I would love to eat the words above, but I am a realist.

I think we had/have one chance of hope. Senator Mark Kelly (Navy combat veteran and Astronaut) but the Democratic party leadership is full of braindead sycophant's, that's why we are here now.

Arizona Senator Mark Kelly is the only one in the entire field I can see possibly defeating Trump, you may like Gavin Newsom's progressive policies but the levels of crime and drug abuse in his state are not fake news, the middle will never support him and they are the ones who will decide this election, Mark Kelly is a puzzle piece that fits perfectly here, even republicans sitting on the Trump fence would vote for him, he is a blue blooded true American hero.

I will always support Biden but sadly I think he has become damaged goods and I'm in fear for our liberty.

OK, since this was my first post here I did not expect the conversation to get so lively. I appreciate every single input. I thought my initial request was simple and clear with the words "non-tech" and "family members" but for the curious I will expand a bit.

For starters of course I am the "sys-admin" of my families tech life, my main personal PC is not Windows based but every member of my family is because every flavor of Linux I have convinced a family member to try has resulted in utter failure for them, sad but true.

They like the simple UI over the Windows firewall because I had no success trying to get them to understand/use the built-in windows version "Easy" to block per-process out/in traffic "Easy" to block ALL traffic, etc... Having them understand/use traffic blocking at the app level has made all of them much safer/smarter users. I start them with almost everything locked down, they open/monitor what they use, nobody shares a PC so this works perfect.

and finally for me, I needed Open Source so I can inspect the code for any tomfoolery, make any custom changes needed/wanted, and compile on my own. Free is never a requirement, I will always support the devs of software I end up using.

Thanks again for all the input, I read and followed everything, I was not planning on this much TMI but felt it warranted after reading the responses.

Update: I just discovered that TinyWall is now FOSS, GitHub Link If a very powerful, easy to config/maintain Windows firewall that is also now FOSS is something your interested in, I highly recommend giving TinyWall a try
