That's better than my experience with last month's "Quality Rollup" for Win7. It disabled my USB ports. No mouse, no keyboard.

I had to use a backup to restore my hard drive using an alternate installation of Windows 10.

I think a similar app was used to create this video, featuring the Trump "family":

"Air fresheners" are nothing of the sort. They add perfumes and fragrances to the air that can be toxic to some people (me).

I shop locally when I can, and enjoy the instant gratification of bringing stuff home with me.

But a lot of what I want, especially computer hardware and clothing in styles and sizes I wear, isn't available locally. Brick and mortar establishments just don't offer the variety available online. That's when local establishments lose my business.

Sales taxes aren't the issue for me, and many online businesses collect them anyway. New Jersey has a line on their tax return for use taxes on out-of-state purchases. I haven't had to pay anything for a couple of years.

In my community here in the US, we have "Single-Stream Recycling." Except for large pieces of cardboard (which are also collected), we put all our recyclables in a single container, and they are separated and sorted at the recycling facility.
