nonsense 

If you'd date a tankie you tacitly admit you'd allow your polycule's opsec to be comprised by Kim Jong Un

Found a nice nudibranch yesterday at the tide pools.

There should be a word for when OEMs ship intentionally broken and stripped down versions of the OS loaded with their own spyware or premium services to replace what was intentionally broken. So that I can use that term to essentially describe their white collar programmer crime of intentionally making shit worse as a middleware designer.

For example, AOSP, what Android is based on, has many useful, free features that device manufacturers intentionally remove before they ship. The hotspot settings tile that lets you make a wifi AP from your phone using your 4G/5G cellular modem as an internet gateway. Everyone loves that, but it gets removed and then users are tricked into installing or enabling paid spyware that replaces it, or denied the feature outright. I'm sure there are more examples. Removing functional features that serve everyone free of cost from upstream code and grafting some corporate middleware grift in its place if anything at all.

bad idea: USB-C flash drive shaped like a 5.25" floppy disk.

and it checks which way you plugged it in, and only shows you that half of the files. You want to see the other files? flip it over!

I put a lot of work into manually making the English captions, so if you have trouble with un-captioned YouTubePoops, don't worry! Technically this is a PTP? A PeerTubePoop? This is on a new PeerTube channel from my last one, since the old instance is shutting down and I'm moving away from doing video game commentary stuff. Edits are much more fun for me.

I saw a lot of media groups that were putting out pro-Gaza content carefully removing or editing out any pride flags at protests in the U.S.

Do not allow that without comment. Queer people organized for Gaza.

Remember that.
