Advocate for freedom and tolerance even if you say things I do not like

Adversary of Fediblock

Accept that I'll probably say something you don't like and I'll give you the same benefit, and maybe we can find some truth about the world.

Ah... Is the Alliteration clever or stupid? Don't answer that, I sort of know the answer already...

I'm happy to realize that there's still people out there who made things I liked who are sane. I never expected which people it would be!

Like... Scott Adams, Kid Rock, Kelsey Grammar, Doug TenNapel, what a strange combination of people.

Fire and brimstone from the angry kitsune.... would bring me to church every Sunday. Not gonna lie here.

The current Dem platform is this 14 year old comedy video.

It's true. The Liberals don't do secret ballots. They just bully their members either into submission or out of the party.

I've never felt happier not supporting a Democrat in my adult life.

Can we take all of them and throw them in a bus, then throw the bus off a cliff into a pool filled with sulphuric acid?

Though to be fair and honest, I think Diddy did support Trump in 2016. Which is probably why they finally arrested him (because it isn't like they arrested him for the things the rest of the establishment does on a daily basis)

"I'm free! I'm free! where am I?" "The Pas." "Aw dang it. Lock me back up."

Pathetic.

Just remember when these people judge us as moral reprobates, this is the sort of thing they spend their spare time doing.

Played with waydroid, a platform for running android apps on linux semi-natively, for the first time ever last night. I wanted to try it out on another laptop I had, but it was armhf and that prevented me from installing wayland (I don't recall why, I think there was a key library that wasn't available on armhf)

In order to use it properly, you need to be running a distro on wayland. If you're running X, you can still run it because you can run the wayland compositor called weston on x, and all the wayland programs will run in the weston window.

Once you install waydroid, you have to run the init. It downloads a copy of lineageOS and sets up an android installation automatically.

It worked quite well even on the celeron laptop with very little memory I was playing on.

By default it doesn't install any store. You need to register with Google if you want to use the play store, I installed f-droid. Newpipe worked well, but when I tried to run moonlight it wouldn't work because it claimed there was no hardware H.264 decoding support. I'm not sure if that's due to waydroid or because of the intel integrated video chip I'm using.

Browsing worked reasonably well, since it was on a laptop I had to go into the settings and turn off on-screen keyboard.

Overall, I'd say if you have an android app that would be useful on your linux install, waydroid seems like a decent and easy to use method to run android applications.

considering that most institutions of any kind have been infiltrated by losers, it's like "Why am I paying for this?"

And for most people the answer becomes "Oh yeah, I won't."

Are the kids still playing fortnite?

I'd say that's a damning indictment of the gaming industry but I'm still playing daggerfall so.......

It is increasingly looking like Donald Trump is going to win the popular vote. We don't know what's going to happen on election day, he could lose by a landslide we don't know but right now it's looking like he wins the popular vote. If that happens, that means that the majority of voters voted for Donald Trump. In that case, are these people going to be calling for violence and hatred against most voters?

I mean... Yes. Which is pathetic.

There used to be good gaming media I used to subscribe to gaming magazines, and there were some really good ones that had really interesting things to say and weren't afraid to call a bad game bad. Everything that was good got shut down. All that's left is the sycophants who breathlessly cheerlead whatever they're told to.

I've got an article ready for when the winner is declared, and the problems with journalism are a core theme.

Depending on who wins, only the title changes. One title says "I knew this was going to happen, here's why", the other says "I didn't expect that! Here's why"

As Detroit and Chicago are learning, they're not the only ones.

I have to admit, earlier this year I made a post saying that it didn't really matter who became president, because really doesn't. It's only 4 years. But I'm kind of getting excited now. What I'm saying is the potential for 4 years respite, but starting to build a whole infrastructure to make sure that there are people around 4 years from now who can carry that torch.

If Trump can keep up this momentum, if he can keep on surrounding himself with really good people who actually care about the future, then this presidential campaign might actually matter. Especially if he can win a strong enough victory to force the Democrats to get out of 2007.

I thought this interview with the prime minister's secretary in 2015 was really interesting, it confirmed a lot of what I've come to believe about Canada's current government. It turns out that he talks to those who are close to him exactly the same as he talks to the Canadian people.
