I thought Putin had put a lot of people through windows; why the surprise?

Swastickers?

Plot outline for a modern science-fiction classic right here.

My old iPhone sits in my kitchen cupboard, connected to a little amp, and I use it for playing music - Streaming, YT, online radio etc. I’ve also got a (flac file compatible) mp3 player for when I know what I want to listen to…

When has banning something never not worked?

For a different perspective over in the UK the vast majority of pubs were (are?) members of “Pub Watch.” Every so often the Police would turn up with a photo list for the premises of banned people in your area. It’s worth noting that everyone on the list had been criminally convicted of alcohol related violence and were subject to banning orders.

Kill a relative or two as a final favour. Check if the wife still wants to live, check if I can be bothered to carry on. If so I’d either head into the mountains or down to the coast (get a boat) and try and get away from population centres for a year.

Edit: Sorry, just seen “selfhosted”. I’ve got about a terabyte of stuff on sd cards - super packable. Those, a handset, a wind-up radio and solar phone charger.

That’d be using the projector and the fibre optic cable. A proper wank, as it were.

Dual sim for the win. Just have a pre pay eSIM and fire it up when you want to have a cheeky wank. God knows anyway - so what’s the worry?

As I understand it gold is used as it doesn’t tarnish or corrode - it’s not there to benefit the sound in any way.

Melt your bank card in acetone. Carefully remove the chip and copper antenna. Place in small mould, fill with resin. Bobby Fingers (YouTuber) did this for a one-eyed friend so he could pay with his eyeball… Consider an rfid blocking case.

I normally get about four years or so out of an iPhone, with heavy and extensive daily use - works out as less than 50 (US) cents a day. I used to pay more for a newspaper.

I only made the switch when BlackBerry OS10 “failed” and they quit making handsets. I still miss my Z30 though…

Yes.

From my own personal view I find it very difficult to disagree with every part of your second sentence.

I browse… Twitter, 9gag, 4chan, BlueSky, Lemmy and Mastodon. I find a mixed bag of cunts and diamonds on all of them - and loads of people in between.

The world is not as black and white as you see it.

Perhaps you might try sorting the wheat from the chaff next time before you make definitive sweeping statements about various platforms.

Jesus Fucking Christ man… is this really how you see the world?

My almost five year old piece of under powered apple trash cost me less than 45 US cents a day, still has regular OS updates and works between eight to ten hours most days running my entire life. I might even splurge out and buy a new one if they ever release an overpowered non trash handset…

Thank you.

I saw it a few days ago. I know the guy from his glitterbomb videos but it was the Roadrunner vibe that really attracted me this time

I’m no scientist but if you can map space mountain with lidar then… it’s probably better then a camera at identifying physical objects blocking your path. And his short experiment seems to support that.

The single biggest issue must be that it was just funny / thought provoking content on YouTube - not a groundbreaking thesis being developed in real time.

However, some apparent shortcomings of the Tezla are probably worth following-up… by far more qualified individuals in a far more formal and peer reviewable environment.
