Your good until your in a pine box or an urn.

Learning should never stop for any reason. However you do have to temper your expectations when learning a trade or skill you can't use due to personal limitations. This needs to be taken into account but that is something an individual should weigh on their own with the people in their life.

There is nothing wrong with using toys with someone you love and want to give pleasure to. A toy alone works to make a person climax but they are so much better when you have another person there to share it with.

I look at toys as something that makes it a little bit easier to ring her bell. Sometimes it's about her desire to orgasm while I am inside of her.

My late wife found it more and more difficult to climax at all before she passed and I still remember her last one riding me with a toy on her clitorous. If I had been intimidated by a toy I wouldn't likely have that memory at all as it had been about a year before that when she had last climaxed which also included a similar toy. Being together was the most important part of it.

Learning Russian could be useful in certain geographical areas near Russia, in the military, or translator position. It's also possible that when hostilities end (or escalate) more position openings could occur. But to learn for personal life the use will be limited.

I don't personally see how learning a language could be offensive, it's knowledge not a lifestyle or way of supporting current hostilities. The hate people have is mainly towards the Russian government and policies, anyone who extends that to a language likely also have a lot of other issues they lump together and are being small minded.

The only person who can determine the need to learn the language is yourself. I doubt the world will be overrun by Russian speaking soldiers any time soon, Mandarin is more likely in that kind of a situation.

I don't remember what all it was but part of the issue was that the long term residents had internet through AT&T so they figured that was good enough. They also insisted that new residents could get DSL because they had it even though that wasn't true.

Beyond that there were going to be more boxes installed in front of a few houses and the complaints about property values being reduced. Along with the HOA president befitting a major jerk since he was in control of a whopping 17 houses.

All the wifi stuff like that is in the public spectrum in the us. Only regulatory requirements are for towers and things of that nature.

You can also setup repeaters in a similar fashion to make it work. An old radio tower from ebay or a telephone pole in a field with a couple units, a battery, and a solar panel creates the link just as easy. The WISP I worked for around 2010 did this to bounce a signal about 15 miles over some rough terrain and a military base. They provided free internet for the land owner to do it.

You have to escalate beyond the regular people. General support staff are basically trained script monkeys who don't know or understand how things function or even have information that higher tier people have. If you get to a higher tier person who knows why service isn't available it might be a simple we need to run a line in the area and if a couple more people want the service we will set it up kind of deal.

Or find a better way to make things work for you. More ISP's have been created to cover the gaps that others leave than you can imagine.

Helped a guy with a similar issue. His HOA was denying access to an ISP in the area and AT&T was shutting down its DSL service in the HOA due to line issues (the previous owner had DSL but they refused to provide service.)

Anyway his parents place was basically in line of sight to his place so I helped him setup a long range point to point link vs using a Verizon mifi that would drop to 1 Mbps about a week into the month because the high speed data (10 Mbps at his location) was all used up. His parents connection was around 250 Mbps and he was able to get around 75 Mbps at his house. He used it for around a year before the HOA was told the easement was made for utilities and since the isp was classified as a utility they couldn't deny access. Didn't stop multiple people like the HOA president from pulling utility marker flags and putting up signs for no trespassing right at the road edge even though the easement was about 5 feet into their property.

https://ispdesign.ui.com/ is a good way to figure out if it will work for you to set something up. Just be sure that you buy equipment with the same frequency you are using in the configuration (the fresnel zone is different for different frequencies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_zone) and most any brand equipment will work. If you have questions I will do my best to answer.

If you are tired of receiving the offers send them a cease and desist letter via registered mail.

https://legalclarity.org/how-to-legally-tell-someone-to-stop-contacting-you/

If they continue contacting after about 30 days it is harassment and you can file for a restraining order and sue them for damages.

When you go to send the letters be sure to keep a copy for yourself along with the receipts for the mailing and be sure to have a witness to the mailing. I would just ask the person at the post office to do this for proof that what you sent was the same as the copy you keep for yourself.

If you want the service then you need to find out why your neighbors have the service available and you don't. That means escalating the call to a support person.
