What Brendan said.
This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

There was a “discussion” (although if you read that as “argument” you wouldn’t be wrong) about Starbucks & people with CCWs. here this morning. The long & short of it: “If I’m in there & someone tried to pull a gun to shoot someone, I could stop it. Just like the time you were threatened by the gangbangers. They wouldn’t have done that with my gun in their faces.” At which point it was noted that the person carrying is an effing froot loop & needed to leave the room because the other person in the “discussion” was busy with Excel, trying to whip it into shape & had no time to cope with idiocy. The person carrying left in a snit, but he left.

Law-abiding folks do not have a good record against crooks. Because the crooks don’t care.
And if someone wants to die over Starbucks coffee, all I can say is at least pick coffee that tastes good. Starbucks is
crapless than desirable.
