Trapped In America

I have a magnet on my fridge that the city used to give out, it has ALL of the local numbers on it. The thing is hella faded and probably a good 30+ years old now. I haven’t seen another one in years.

I’ve only ever met a few people that knew non-emergency numbers were a thing. Let alone know them by heart. So I bet this going swimmingly.

It’s because Steve bought a Toyota Prius, so he has to counter Steve by spending $4,000 to make his truck blow smoke everywhere. Because fuck Steve! He’s a free thinker! Steve isn’t gonna tell him what to do!

They’re literally that easy to manipulate. At this point, we should just organize so-called “leftist actions” that are just bait for them to waste their time/money trying to counter. Because they will, they absolutely fucking will. See the picture above and the videos of morons burning sports jerseys or shooting 24-packs of Bud Lite.

On a good day, yeah, I have 100Mb upload so I could just match that going full ham. But I mainly seed rare (<10 seeds) things now and set a 10.0 ratio cap on all of the new/popular stuff. Gotta keep those '80s and '90s ISOs seeded, ya know? ;)

A good example: their SN30 Pro has a bad bluetooth chip in it that makes Xinput support really laggy (I don’t know the specifics). It’s been years now, and had a few firmware updates, but there’s still been no fix. It works great for everything else though, so I still keep it around.

Just a warning for anyone thinking of buying one after reading this…

It’s totally legit, I swear! Nothing but Linux ISOs and repo clones!

RT is literally state television owned by the Russian Government. They’re not a third party receiving grants, they’re 100% owned and operated by the government.

Keep drinking that vodka spiked Kool-Aid, homie.

Receiving a grant doesn’t mean that they’re beholden to the grantor or automatically make their opinions propaganda. That’s like saying Mr. Rogers was a propagandist for teaching kids to be kind to one another because PBS receives federal grant money.

I know that plastic recycling was a scam for the most part (types 5 & 7 4 & 6 specifically). But that’s type 2 plastic (HDPE) which is properly recyclable in 99% of places. So that’s a plus.

Edit: Apparently my eyes are shit and that is type 5. So no silver-lining here after all, just more dread.

Edit 2: I’ve been informed that types 4 & 6 (plastic bags/wraps and Styrofoam) are the bad plastics. So this is recyclable in a lot of places. Silver lining restored!

Open-Shell can fix that when you’re forced (at gunpoint, obviously) to use Windows ;)
