Seeing as they go “I’m already taxed enough” their answer is probably “Yes tax breaks for the wealthy and companies makes me happier. For some reason.”

HIPAA violations aren’t state, they’re federal.

It doesn’t help Adobe has software patents for their products, so anyone who makes a similar program has to either live in a country that doesn’t recognize the “right” to claim you invented math, or be risk being sued.

Jesus Christ, we learned that fixing the economy via tariffs was bad in 1930. Like holy shit, tariffs are nearly universally agree by every field of economics to be shitty for citizens, businesses, and then the country. It makes no one inside want to buy anything but the simple basics, even with the basics now costing much much more.

I am not a “free trade” person, but this is not how you “Make America Great Again”. Even Ronald Reagan and Dubya didn’t do tariffs as a replacement for other things.

If there’s ever been proof that America has an injustice system instead of a justice system:

• Trump is guilty of all 34 counts, is allowed to still run free, still allowed to run for president, still gets massive coverage from every piece of media, even ones that lean liberal.

• Every single black American has to worry about cops just randomly shooting them, without judge or jury, just executioner.

• Women had their bodily rights revoked by an illegitimate court.

• Trans people are new scapegoat after gay/bi/lesbian people struggled to get the same rights as the 90% since the 1960s at Stonewall.

But sure, we live in a free country where a fascist can be arrested, found guilty, lose more money than any person who could support such a fucking loser would ever see in life, and still do will in polls and not have serious challenge.

Thank fuck. I hope they stay in power.

If someone is unaware of piracy: Tell them.

If someone is aware of piracy and doesn’t care: “I don’t really know, I just got it off of a torrent site.”

If someone is aware of piracy and cares too much for a company they don’t work for: You can ignore them.

I am, and they wouldn’t care in a draft. I’m a suicidal weirdo who refuses to harm anyone, I barely have the will power to harm myself, let alone others stuck in similar situations.

I just will say anything to get out of service of a war.

Better than shooting someone in cold blood because “murder is valid because we said it was war time.” I’d rather be in jail than a murderer, I don’t need to add PTSD when my brain is already fucked up.

If I am ever drafted (Unlikely due to my shoulder, colorblindness, various mental health things) I will just start saying “I’m going to tell the enemy where my group is and sabotage equipment. I am a liability, you don’t want me there. If you put me with radio, I will shoot that radio. If you put me in cooking, I will spill the beans. If you give me a gun, it’s not going to be used at the enemy.”

Will I? Probably not. But talk is cheap and I don’t think a military group wants someone who publicly stated “I will commit treason and aid the enemy.”

Syncthing is a god sent tool. Maybe I should use it for that if I can on my Xbox and Switch. I know I can for steam screenshots.

It took Nintendo years to enable Bluetooth on the switch. The same tech the pro controller and joycons use. Years. Modders had it nearly day one of opening the console.

How do I get a screenshot to my phone?

• Turn off WiFi, enable it to make a temp local wifi, scan a QR code. Then open a web page and download them.

PlayStation and Xbox:

• You can just upload them to the network you already pay for, or put them on a flash drive.

I know a decent amount of friends who use(d) Twitter to share moments and screenshots of after-game reports and random “aint this wild?” Moments.

And Splatoon on Switch got a big bonus from the memes the sharing enabled due to user generated content.

I love this recurring post. Please keep it up.

Switch and Xbox here: Xbox can do clips and screenshots, and upload to social media with one button.

It can also send all the clips and photos to an external storage device, which is what I do so it’s easy to sync clips for making edits of them for videos and jokes.

Nintendo feels so bizarre in how they handle the screenshots. “Here’s a dedicated screenshot button! Good luck sending this to anyone not on Facebook or Twitter!”

When there’s third party apps and programs to make the job of Nintendo and it’s fans easier, they fucked up.

It’s fine to pirate every piece of media. From books, to movies, to music, to textbooks, to newspapers, to my own comments online.

Information and art is meant to be shared and enjoyed. Pay walling a distraction from reality does nothing but make reality worse.

My Xiaomi phone for $400 supports up to 1 TB SD cards, so that’s pretty sweet.

Here’s a few things that are cheaper!

• Soulseek/Nicotine+
• Usenet Groups
• Libraries (only if your local one has CDs, and often is popular music and no indie stuff) And if you want some album art: MusicBrainz Picard

If you want it on your phone, SD cards are cheaper than ever for big space. Unless you’re on iPhone.

Yeah after a long, long time chewing, it turns into a paste. I learned this when I was forced to keep a piece in my mouth for hours beside my mom thought it was disrespectful to some event to go to a trash can.

But yeah, I think all gums do this. Just due to the gum’s chemicals mixing with your saliva. All foods do this at some point.

It might help I’m in California, but I got it all over my Google News feed and a few other people talked about it near me.
