Do I know this from Alan Wake 2 or My Summer Car?

He’s pro-Palestine and there’s a villain in his stage performance that is a Nazi. I don’t think Waters is an anti-semite though.

That’s just the nature of peer-to-peer file sharing. When you download a torrent from a large site your client broadcasts your IP to any of the available seeders. Seeders are just anyone who downloaded the torrent before you, and you generally download from many seeders for one torrent.

Using a VPN or seedbox masks your IP. The actual torrent itself isn’t “traceable” unless you continue to seed after its compleled downloading.

Hue emulator/ diy hue. It runs on Linux or an old router. I have it running on a raspberry pi attached to my network. You can use official hue products or a handful of other WiFi light products like IKEA lights or Xiomi Yeelights. I use Yeelight bulbs and custom led strips connected to programmable WiFi chips. Took a bit of soldering but it works flawlessly now. The yeelights and custom strips cost a fraction of the official hue products.

The Fred Meyer (Kroger) in my neighborhood has 4-5 armed and body armored security guards stationed at the entrance and exits. They ask to check your receipts at the exit and search all your bags.

Its actually illegal to force someone to stop since its not a private club like Costco, so you can just tell them no and keep walking. Thats not well known though so you have stormtroopers checking old ladies papers and searching all their belongings.

Oregon allows off duty officers to moonlight as armed guards so a lot of them are cops from various departments. During the 2020 protests there were a few Federal Protective Service agents patrolling the store.

I pirate a ton of stuff, but I also see more movies in theaters than most people I know. I’m lucky enough to live in a place that still has an awesome local video store that has a ton of hard to find, obacure films. Like shaw brothers kung fu films, or documentaries like Jefftowne.

There were literal swatika wearing Nazis among other far right groups leading the 2014 Euromaiden protests that kicked out the Russian backed president in Ukraine. The leftist groups were anti-protest and also anti-government.

The Gunslinger. It was supposed to be more of a continuation of the books but it just sucked all around.

A shocking number of our laws are written by lobbyist. Like you can’t import foreign cars unless they’re the exact model sold in the US or over 25 years old, because of anti competive laws created by automotive lobby’s.

Pepsi has a history in Russia. They once traded the USSR soda in exchange for a fleet of naval ships. IIRC at the time Pepsi had the 4th largest navy in the world. They sold the ships to Norway.

There’s zero evidence God is real. Might as well say “we can’t say with 100% certainty Harry Potter isn’t real. In the story the wizards all hide from muggles.”

Most of humanity legitmatly believed in some kind of god for most of history. It didn’t stop people from screwing each other over.

Root access is pretty easy to get. People don’t reccomend it much anymore but I’ve had zero issues on a Pixel 7 aside that I can’t use the phone’s tap and pay feature. Bus passes and plane tickets still work.

Probably not what you meant, but you can buy a Nexus 5x on eBay for $200 and flash Ubuntu’s mobile is to it.

It was an awesome opening in a public park restroom too

Maybe it was Homelander.

Last time I rented a car I declined their insurance and they were able to just use my daily car’s policy.

I like to tinker with things. I wanted to see if I could hit a weed cart powered by my phone so I bought a bunch of cheap 510 batteries with temp select from DH gate. They were all the same brand, same seller, same packaging. Inside was a different story though. All the batteries were from different manufactures with capacities different from what was listed.

Instapot. Instapot made too good of a product, most people buy one and its good for years. That’s good for consumers but terrible for investors. The company that bought them out and took them public saddled them with a ton of debt from other sectors and now they’re bankrupt.

They’re all overpriced, diamonds are a scam that’s so normalized most people don’t realize its a scam.
