Everyone has a powerful computer in their pockets but isn't able to use them to their full potential.

Android Desktop is actually pretty nice, the thing that makes it useless is that basically no android apps have desktop mode or hotkeys and mouse support (Chrome is half-assed and Firefox is wearing assless chaps) plus a lot of standard I-just-want-linux things are going to be wonky. If you're considing buying any hard-ware for the purpose of Android Desktop, you're almost always better off buying a laptop at the same $100-$400 price.

AR is pretty much dead on arrival for at least a decade because everyone willing to make the tech to back it up wants to give you a walled garden of ads (like replacing billboards with their own adds, adding animated ads to whatever blank surface you see, and whatever app you're using) and the only people who are willing to buy it at >$1000, 1>lbs, and early adopter quality only want it for business/hacker/utilitarian/gamer/influencer reasons who have a very low tolerance for ads and login-with-your-big-brother-account-walls meaning the supply/demand chart is like 5 total sales for actual Homo Economicus.

I'll volunteer to help you close them for free. I'll help you move out of the city. Then I'll shop there when Zohran reopens them without you.

I posted this 4 years ago after campaigning to get Zohran elected to the state assembly. Now look where we are. Never been more proud to have campaigned so hard for somebody. in c/main@hexbear.net

I don't think it matters how bad of a leftist AOC is when she's almost entirely alone in congress.

In 2018 pre-election I was probably the biggest AOC shill lol

They're taking wallstreeters and make them walk out in the ice in the east river and then they fall through.

Stranger Things Quality Plummet Rant (hexbear.net)

This was a comment somewhere else, I wanted to make my own thread on it. One of these spoiler tags has a long rant.

I think Stranger Things S1 is pretty good. After S1, you can stop at any time you're no longer feeling it and not be missing out on anything.

S2 spoilersmost people didn't like S2 but I thought it was awesome, and agree there was a tiny drop of quality.

S3 spoilersIMO S3 is where a serious quality drop starts. In addition to a general quality dip, the monster from S2 comes back but there is at least a twist so it's not as bad of a rehash as Star Wars episode 7 felt like. Also the Soviets built a secret military lab under a mall, they should have hired some people to rework that part of the plot.

S4 spoilersS4 has a lot of cool stuff going on it, but it's all over the place in very silly ways. It has a lot of quality issues.

The lore was ambiguous about what the Mind Flayer (S2) was. The absolutely worst part is when the lore in S4 established that the Mind Flayer was not in fact, some cool mysterious eldritch god (you know, something strange), but actually just some 40 year old asshole LARPing as a spider using magic dust who also has super powers for literally no fucking reason at all. If you can ignore the lore downgrade, the season's big bad (Vecna) is 50% okay and 50% wtf when did this become a Marvel movie?. The only thing they had to do to unfuck the lore was say "Vecna (some random asshole who has powers for no reason) and the Mind Flayer (eldritch shadow god thing) are working together (for literally any reason who cares)". FFS who cares about some random asshole LARPing as a spider? That's the fucking stupidest shit ever!!! First they're like "As a child, Vecna was obsessed with spiders." Then you're like oh okay, that explains why he's working with this shadow monster who definitely does not look like a spider but close enough for someone whose weirdly obsessed with spiders to be interested. Because if someone was that obsessed with actual spiders, they'd LARP as something that looks a lot more like an actual fucking spider.

Then everything is good to go, until they quickly pull a fast one on you, like they forgot at the last second that someone was going to ask "yeah that's cool and all, BTW what does all this Vecna stuff have to do with S2/S3?" and then they do a quick lame exposition dump explaining that the upside down was just Vecna thinking about darkness and shit found some magic dust and used it to LARP as a spider (WHICH DOES NOT ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE A SPIDER HOLY RETCON BATMAN), and it's extremely obvious this is a desperate attempt to retcon away the "sry kid, we were making it up as we go because netflix demanded with make more than one season" with "wow it was Vecna the whole time!!!"

Then everybody gaslights you that this was planned from the beginning despite originally the show was planned to be an anthology (and S1 plays well as a complete self-contained show).

I wonder what the PragerU meta is for Elementary/Middle/Highschool kids (hexbear.net)
 

Like do kids get made fun of for watching PragerU child indoctrination content, are they embarrassed that other kids get to watch "good shows", does it never get brought up, does it divide classmates politically earlier in life, or like what?

I think I just figured out how I got doxxed (hexbear.net)
 

The doxing I'm talking about happened years ago, don't worry about that, everybody already went home on that, can't give any more information without redoxxing myself.

I accidentally noticed I was logged into imgur today, I don't use the website, so that's a surprise. I decided to wander an old album of random person shit that shouldn't be uploaded straight into NSA land (aka five eyes, imgur, etc.), but you know, facebook/insta is probably technically worse and I got a lot more there anyways.

I saw I had a random picture that could best be described as a horny prank photo, with my computer screen VERY VISIBLE AND READABLE in the background. I was curious about what the background details were on my computer, and then I noticed something very embarrassing. I had a windows download window open, and one of the files downloaded was a PDF with MY FULL NAME on on the filename, and MY UNIVERSITY's DOMAIN as the download source for the file.

I remember the historical context of how and why I shared this picture, I'm aware of like 100 online mostly anonymous people, any one of which may have kept a copy for who knows how long, but long enough to figure out how to punish me for such a dumb mistake. I think for this theory to work, they must have gone to uni with me or have met one of my classmates, but that would be hard to prove without DMing lots of acquaintances on fb/insta, but everyone I'm online friends with from uni is basically upgraded to sus right now, this person might even be trying to collect more things on me until the time is right for a round 2.

America delenda est.
