Of course he will. This is just a the lithmus test to see how far he can push the envelope and seeing what new laws need to be instituted or changed to get his desired outcome. If he doesn’t get much push back from DC, he’ll move on to a larger city, new state. Not New York or California, too big, too soon. But maybe something smaller like New Mexico, where you can add on the border as an issue. I’m not familiar with New Mexico any of their cities having immigration problems? You’re hardly ever hear anything about New Mexico, they must be pretty chill down there.

And I understand a DC provides certain specific powers that he doesn’t have in other states.They’ve already overturned a few of his decisions, but it doesn’t seem to slow him I’m down much anyway. So I got a feeling they’re only going to keep escalating.

Me and my friends started pirating in 1994 when nntp was all the rage. It’s gone through many interations, from bulletin boards, to news groups, to torrenting and now I find that I mostly use a debrid client with Kodi. Of all the time that’s gone past the streaming services have still not gotten rid of geo locking, it’s like they never seem to learn. Everything turns into profit over everything else. They keep screwing themselves. Convenience will always trump even piracy, but they can never understand that they could have had the greatest business model on earth and one of the largest audiences, but profit takes precedence and they dilute the product, in this case streaming, to the point where it becomes no longer feasible for the common people to use it.

Streaming services now cost the same thing as cable bundles cost me 20 years ago, and in a lot of places you’re still required a Cable bundle on top of this. Just imagine if Netflix still had every show that was on every other streaming platform, even if you paid $75 a month for it it would still be worth it. But they all want the whole pie, not a piece. So they cannibalize what was a great step forward and then wonder why their subscriber numbers dwindle every quarter. And now they’ll make new draconian laws to force people to use their shitty substandard products and scratch their heads wondering where everything went wrong.

Somewhere a level of c-suite executives will spend 8 months analyzing how things went wrong at the cost of probably 20 million dollars. And what it will boil down to is in order to keep profits for investors growing the workforce has been cut back to almost skeleton crews. All safety regulations have been removed because it’s “stifling industry”. And regular training and pay raises to keep worker morale high have been discontinued. But this can all be fixed by bringing in cheap overseas labor at 1/6th cost.

So many people are taking this as a joke. It’s parallels to 1930s Germany is so scary. I always used to think that the German people only became Nazis because they feared for their own lives. Now I’m starting to think from the way I see people reacting online that most people are born Nazis and I was the one who misjudged everything. Until the day I die I will never understand people’s hatred against one another. We are all born naked, and we will all die alone. Most of us have around 60 years in between and some people choose to fill their days by making it worse for others. We will wipe out our own race through fear and ignorance.

Firefox then RIF

He needed it to advertise the website that was linked right after he posted it.

Probably going to get downvoated for this. If you use GNU/Linux as your daily driver and you’re familiar with Raspberry Pi’s, how is it you don’t know that this is obviously a phishing attempt? Seems to me someone might be fishing for up votes. But I’m just an undeniably cynical bastard. I’ll show myself out.

Personally I found the first 2 seasons much better than the rest. The rest were hit or miss with not so many hits the further the seasons progressed. Not saying they were bad, but the quality of the plots dropped significantly for seasons 4-5.

The closer you get to death, the more fascinated by you become. My grandparents died in the 80s. Last ten years before they died, my grandfather and his friends went to every funeral no matter who it was or if they knew them. You might think ha ha they went for the food, but they never went to the receptions/wakes. I think they basically just did it as a high five, I’m alive you’re dead type of thing. They did this until every one of them was dead. None of them were overly religious.

Canada has a direct payment system for child allowances that’s issued monthly. There’s also a partial dental program up to the age of I think 16 years old. Canada had some great social service systems in place in the '60s and seventies but they were stripped away by the PC governments of the '80s. It’s good that they still look out for our next generation but that will also soon stop when they find a replacement for workers.

It’s still amazes me how little polish there is to the official Reddit app compared to other third party apps. I used Firefox browser until I adopted RIF. I tried to use the official app after the deadline came and the amount of ads that I was bombarded with just became unbearable. I understand they need to make money. I understand they do this by advertising. But when they start using deceptive practices like blending the ads into genuine post they cross the line. I was a heavy user I would say greater than 2 hours a day spent on Reddit. I didn’t go cold turkey but I’m down to checking top and top last hour once or twice a day now. I deleted my main account which made it very easy to stay away.
