More western trend. Much of the global south, conceding that it’s not all, but much of the global south is headed in better directions. Mexico, Brazil, Mali, Burkina Faso, China, etc etc have been moving in a good direction. Expansion of labor rights, improving infrastructure, land reforms, renewable energy pushes, electrification. The hope for the future lies not in the old guard, but in the rising new guard.

Sounds like you’re a troglodyte genocide apologist to me. Resistance to occupation and siege is legal under international law, including through force of arms.

I often play the GB version. It has 4 levels from the og game and then goes on to be one of the best puzzle platformers of all time. It even introduced later series classics like the triple jump, backwards flip, and more. Idk if they have it on the NS Online games, but if they do, it’s definitely worth checking out if you haven’t played it yet.

Second that, I just checked my private tracker for paw patrol and there’s 57 seeders on a complete series torrent, 279 on the 2021 movie, and 650 on the 2023 movie. I’ve never seen any of them, so I can’t comment on that aspect, but private trackers are the way to go. Id rather give up torrenting if I lost access than go back to public trackers.

16. Hamas affirms that its conflict is with the Zionist project not with the Jews because of their religion. Hamas does not wage a struggle against the Jews because they are Jewish but wages a struggle against the Zionists who occupy Palestine. Yet, it is the Zionists who constantly identify Judaism and the Jews with their own colonial project and illegal entity.

Hamas seeks no such thing and your blind acceptance of what is inherently a racist perspective based on Islamophobia is extremely telling.

Having been an Apple, Google, and Samsung certified technician who performs repairs down to board level, Google phones fucking suck. They have no fucking idea what they’re doing and it results in horribly assembled phones, esoteric internal design, fragile components, and complicated repairs. A screen repair on a Pixel 5 took almost 40 unique components. That’s literally more than 10x what any other brand needs. They take ten times as long as an iPhone for the same repair, and probably 5x as long as a Samsung. There are worse phones out there, but not flagship phones. Google is by far the worst flagship manufacturer once you actually get past the sleek exterior. Dozens of crisscrossed flex cables, many of which are heavily adhered down or intended to be replaced regardless of if they’re in perfect shape. Single use grommets, ridiculously over complicated jigs and templates… they’re just… bad.

Private companies aren’t bound to make profit. I purposefully tanked my companies profit to literally 0 during the pandemic so I could keep my employee on at full wage while only open half time. A private company can make profit for shareholders, but it doesn’t have to. It can do whatever the shareholders want it to do, within the boundaries of the law.

Yeah I was in the industry when he got big, and it was hard not to love his anger towards Apple, but eventually it became apparent he was just an angry person and Apple was only his current target. Once he had secured his platform, he felt more comfortable to share his absurd views, and I fear he influenced many impressionable people towards the right with his rhetoric. Dude is not who I want representing the repair community.

Yep. And a right libertarian. I stopped watching him when he went from repair content to months long complaining about taxes and talking up Florida and Texas as some great place. Honestly, I am 100% convinced that the only reason he even cares about right to repair is for his work. He has shown no signs of caring about anyone else other than himself in any of the dozens of hours of content I watched of his.

I’m so glad I trained under Jessa at iPad Rehab instead of taking his course.

So you’re purposefully using something you dislike even more than something you call shitty? Really healthy habits there, no wonder you’re a miserable to be around.

You know Reddit is still around, if you like it better, you can go back. No one here would fault you.
