This is cool, I totally misunderstood what the immunity provided. Thanks for pointing it out. Read the wiki page on it after your comment.

There's plenty of good reasons. Have you seen his online behavior? Frequently follows and comments favorably on white supremacy groups and pages. Musk is a white supremacist. all the evidence is there. His family actively profited on, and participated in the apartheid in South Africa.

He's shown us who he is through his own actions, and through who he praises and supports.

And to be fair, I think he only did it twice, not thrice, so my bad there.

~~But unless they're in their consulate, they're on US soil, subject to the US~~

Edit: was totally wrong

"or a monetary fine". Ugh, "legal for a price".

Wait, "starting"?

Yes... He accidentally did it... Three times in a row....

I meant competition in general, not just for movies. There's basically 3 companies that own everything, and they collude rather than compete.

I can't disagree with you, but the current executives and how they function can easily be replaced by current ai models. Would be nice to get innovation back, but all the competition is gone now.

In other words, they (the US government) can't influence who does or doesn't see certain content, so they need it to sell to an "american" owner so that they can make sure they only see pro us propaganda.

Literally never seen any of that on TikTok. Just Americans doing their thing. In fact, you can actually look up content on TikTok that shows, describes and condemns the atrocities at tiananmen square, and their awful behavior towards Taiwan. And any number of things that shows the chinese government as a bad player. If they were in control, you'd think that sort of thing wouldn't even be available.

It's not even that long of a comment. It's like 3 short paragraphs. Read a book my guy

 
 

Dunno what they are, now they're taking over my trash can. Have one more picture in the comments.

Tiniest little bug. I only saw 4 legs, but it probably has more. Adding more pics in the comments, can only upload one. Phone wouldn't really focus on it.

So religion is a pretty common theme in his books. Stormlight and Elantris (more for the latter) have heavy religious influence.

I'm reading Elantris now, and I can't imagine a man who understands religion as well as he does (based on his writing) believes anything about the TSCC. This thought just came to mind as he's describing how the one dude knows how to manipulate the masses, using their pride and shame to his own ends.

Anywho, just throwing that out there. 🤷

Have a great weekend, and a lovely second Saturday everyone!

 

I've been keeping my pebble 2 alive for a very long time. New battery a few months ago, rewiring the vibrator motor due to the wire breaking at the solder point, new 3d printed buttons.

It's been working great for a very long time. Today, the motor itself is dead, resoldering it yielded no joy.

I think I need to retire this watch. I've asked my brother if I could buy one of his (he backed all the kickstarters) that isn't working any more. I'll replace the battery in it, and get it working again.

It's so sad that these aren't made any more. No significant changes or updates in what, like 7 years, and it still functions nearly perfectly. I wish so badly that someone would pick up where they left off and manufacture some more.

Super weird, noticed it today on his right foreleg just above the elbow joint. Feels like there's something underneath, and had this chunky white protrusion. Can't find an exact match via Google. Expecting some sort of cyst or maybe a blocked gland?
