that's the fee to get on the ballot. you can forego it by collecting 5k signatures (requires you to go to kansas) or run as a write-in for free

the first one is still a requirement. the second one i can get behind

if I have a Win10 box at home, and I run this one curl command in the native Win10 Bash shell

Do I have that right?
You'd have to get a linux box or something that can run linux programs and basically set that up as a dedicated local DNS your router/modem points to.

I would just recommend spending the $50 or so to get a raspi+other stuff(unless you already have one) than use your existing win10 box, but if you do not want to spend money on hardware then I'd recommend a Virtual Machine running linux rather than getting the fancy programs to run linux programs natively on Windows, as modern HW and virtualization plays nicer nowadays than before and it won't potentially cause issues if you mess up.


Theoretically though, once setup it will block all known ads and such.
I'm not personally running one myself but I may in the future just because I'm really getting sick of popups actually existing in Chrome and that it shouldn't allow popups! :argh:

I already have Bash running natively on my home PC, but if it needs something running as a dedicated DNS server it definitely makes a lot more sense to have an actual physical machine for that. I'm honestly shocked I haven't made something out of a Pi yet. Could be a cool project.

honestly whatever she's doing has worked pretty well for her, she's won a d+4 seat in landslide margins even through gop wave years. so i guess more power to her for managing to go from an anti-israel green party activist to a pro-business moderate without melting down from the contradictions

D+4, drat that would be a challenge for any moderate Democrat.

"In early 2014, Sinema joined the Blue Dog Coalition, a group of moderate Democrats who work with moderate Republicans to craft bipartisan policy."

"In September 2014, she was endorsed for re-election by the United States Chamber of Commerce, becoming one of five Democrats to be endorsed by the Chamber in the 2014 congressional election cycle"

"In 2015, however, Sinema was one of just seven House Democrats to vote in favor of a Republican-backed bill to repeal the estate tax"

Oh she's just actually a conservative, ok then.

sinema transformed basically

quote:

Sinema entered Arizona politics as a radical. She worked on Ralph Nader’s 2000 presidential campaign, protested against the invasion of Afghanistan and ran unsuccessfully for the Legislature as an independent in 2002, when the Arizona Democratic Party dubbed her “too extreme” for central Phoenix. In 2004, she was elected as a Democrat, and quickly earned a reputation as a standard-bearer for the party’s progressive wing in the Legislature.

But when Sinema toned things down and started reaching across the aisle, things started to change. She began working with Republicans on bipartisan legislation, such as a 2006 bill sponsored by then-Rep. Jonathan Paton that permitted mothers to breastfeed in public. In later years, she even worked with former Sen. Russell Pearce, the illegal immigration hawk who became a lightning rod to the left, on bills to crack down on drop houses.

it's actually pretty amazing how much of a total 180 she has pulled
