"No frills" just means he swears a lot. "Ordinary bloke" means he's a sexist dinosaur.

Unsure, but others can testify I've put a fair bit of effort into the current setup and it just didn't work as it should. Comparing with other marginalised groups like ethnic and GLBT communities is instructive.

Connecting is a bit easier than it used to be, that's not so much of a problem
We'll have some posts on remaining challenges in connectivity.

Because we have been woefully ineffective at organising and demanding better from all of them. And those whose jobs it has been to help with that have similarly not done so well, yet we tolerate that.
