ByteWizard,

It’s good to read Marx books, but history books are better. That way you can see examples of how socialism always fails due to human corruption.

ByteWizard,

I’m not seeing any complete series packs but they have most of the episodes. torrentgalaxy.to/torrents.php?search="Gold.Rush"#…

ByteWizard,

But not everyone has a PC

That’s a decision they’ve made for themselves. No sympathy. Computers are cheap, storage even cheaper.

ByteWizard, (edited )

Just sounds like you don’t understand how to use technology. Fig-stealing whores have the Greeks beat.

ByteWizard,

I read it as 'walk across the corner of your lawn". Old geezers meme is them yelling at people to “stay off my lawn” Although unauthorised lawn maintenance would piss them off just as well I suppose.

ByteWizard,

It has hardware that most cell phones don’t have.

Sub-ghz
“allowing it to receive and send radio frequencies between 300 and 928 MHz. These switches, radio locks, wireless doorbells, remote controls, barriers, gates, smart lighting, "

RFID
" including plastic cards, key fobs, tags, wristbands, and animal microchips.”

Infrared
" that use infrared light (IR) such as TVs, air conditioners, or audio devices. It can learn and save infrared remote controls or use its own Universal remotes"

It also has an iButton reader.

ByteWizard,

RFID compatible with NFC antennas

Only the HF RFID stuff. There is also LF and UHF RFID. FZ has an LF RFID antenna.

“NFC tags are a subcategory of HF RFID technology. All NFC tags are HF RFID tags, but not all HF RFID tags are NFC tags. NFC operates in a very specific subset of the high-frequency range —13.56 MHz— and have very different use cases and implementation considerations from other RFID categories”

Same thing for IRDA

IrDA isn’t the same as IR. There were some phones with an actual IR blaster built in but most were IrDA.

ByteWizard,

Mainly local radio broadcasts,

I’m guessing you’re not in the US? 'Cause here nearly everyone is owned by Clear Channel/iHeartMedia. Nothing of value is being discovered there.

ByteWizard,

Well look at that, there are some in the US - en.wikipedia.org/…/List_of_community_radio_statio…

ByteWizard,

Also with their ban of Pridetape now I see no reason to support this operation with my money.

Funny, that was what got me interested in watching the NFL this season. Nothing against pride tape but professional sports should NOT be about politics, from either side. That’s what I’m supporting.

ByteWizard,

Sure. Why do you think I would have a problem with that?

ByteWizard,

What part of being “openly gay” requires the display of gay pride colors? Colors that are very closely tied to the political movement?

"Flags are political symbols, borrowed from the vocabulary of nationalism, with similar overtones of citizenship, belonging, borders. They represent what the historian Benedict Anderson called “imagined communities”—self-constituted entities, united less by shared experiences than by shared beliefs in shared experiences. " www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/…/619273/

Even the designer of the flag considers it a political symbol.
"According to Gilbert Baker, the designer who, in 1978, first used a rainbow as a symbol for LGBT causes, “For the past almost 40 years, the rainbow flag has stood as a politically powerful, meaningful, and also aesthetically effective symbol.” letallplay.org/…/yes-fifa-lgbt-rainbow-is-politic…

ByteWizard,

Whatever you think the colors mean, they are a political symbol to others. Displaying political symbols when being paid as part of your job is commonly disallowed and is not limited to rainbow flags.

ByteWizard,

Weebs should be ashamed to go out in public.

ByteWizard,

That’s why you don’t let the homeless hand around.

Besides shitting in the streets, they cause all sorts of problems. Exhibit #1: the current state of San Fran. Loser libtards think homeless are just trying to get back on their feet when in reality they are gypsy grifters that will take your money then slit your throat. They’ve abandoned civilization, it’s no hardship to abandon them in return.

Unless you’re a fucking moron you know this is true. But there are a lot of fucking morons around these days.

ByteWizard,

Lol you allow homeless to use your bathroom, then we’ll talk. How much literal shit do you enjoy cleaning? 'Cause there’s gonna be loads.

The answer is paid toilets. Cause anything available for ‘free’ will be abused.

ByteWizard,

Agree in many cases. I wouldn’t watch a dub of Seven Samurai for instance. But Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon? A dub is fine there IMO.

ByteWizard,

You end up reading and not watching the movie. Focus is split between the two instead of just enjoying the experience.

ByteWizard,

Subtitles ruin native-language movies. I’ll enable them if I’m watching something in public because I’m not a monster but otherwise I hate them.

Get some decent speakers, FFS. A ‘sound bar’ does not qualify. A good center channel speaker is essential. Don’t even need the rear surrounds with a good front setup.

ByteWizard,

Hotline

Instant nostalgia hit. Good times…
