It's kinda weird how the roles are reversed. From my experience, geese are just assholes to anything that walks by that isn't a goose. Eagles tend to keep to themselves in the remote parts of the world.

That being said, they are both majestic birds and it sucks that the bald eagle is practically a symbol of hate and dominance at this point.

Thank you sir, may I have another. Harder this time, daddy.

I got my Kobo eReader literally days ago, phew

Unfortunately, nothing. Always comes from different instances for me. Whack-a-mole

It's so hot, imgur is at capacity and only returns json

This. NameCheap actually responds to abuse reports, as well. Turns out they actually think it's bad for business to allow grifters and con artists to use their services, unlike other major registrars.

Barely Bones sounds like a skeleton's Only Fans

It's kind of a moot point if you're in the USA. There are only 3 companies that actually own and operate cell towers: ATT, Verizon, T-Mobile. I'm speaking in terms of privacy, not coverage or quality.

Any other company just leases usage of the towers from one of them.

  • PureTalk = ATT
  • Mint = T-Mobile
  • Cricket = ATT

Then you have T-Mobile that gobbled up a bunch of smaller companies and kept the names to trick you into thinking it's a different company (kinda like Nestle and their local bottled water companies). T-Mobile also owns Sprint and MetroPCS.

I've had a good experience with RamNode, and very little limitations in what I can do.

They used to be headquartered in Atlanta, GA (with servers in all major countries/cities) but were recently bought out by another slightly larger provider. I haven't had any negative experiences since the buy out.

https://ramnode.com/

I have 3 minecraft servers running on one VPS at RamNode (it's a dedicated server, not shared). One is vanilla, one is a heavy tech mod, and the other is a heavy RPG mod. People come and go all the time, no issues. $50/month, though. Note that minecraft is not the only service running on it. It gets very heavily utilized for many, many things.

RamNode will kick you in the ballsac if you try pirating with them, though.

not ordering from Amazon, not communicating via Facebook and Reddit, and recofiguring our phones and computers to avoid using Google services.

This is what really sucks ass for me. I said fuck convenience 10 years ago and I stripped my life of all of these kinds of things, with the exception of Reddit until the past couple years. These things are the NUMBER ONE thing we as the proletariat can do to kick the fat cysts in the balls, and no one is willing to even entertain it. IMO, it's the only way this can be non-violent and also super effective. We have to take away their real power.

Otherwise, agreed. We can't just take a rifle and run up to official buildings. My comment about being alone on the front lines was more so a metaphor, not intended to be literal. I meant that I am alone in the fight that I've been fighting for the past 10 years, which is giving up convenience, returning to my human roots of "adapt and overcome", and taking away power from the rich. However, no one wants to follow, and I am alone. I know there are others out there that have taken the same extreme measures I have, but they are few and far between. None of my closest friends or family are willing to give up Dunkin Donuts and WalMart, and I fucking hate it. Since no one is giving up this stuff, I feel like violence from the few that are willing is the only way to light a fire (see Luigi).

ETA: Congress won't do a damn thing, look at how much money Pelosi makes off insider trading. The military is 50/50 people that oppose and people that bootlick, so it's going to be all of the above I'm afraid.

I find it hilarious that you and I are being downvoted for being angry and wanting to do something more than just sit back by people in the comments that are saying, "we wish you americans would do something."

Keep withholding your cash, fellow prole. We can only force our cowardly brethrens' noses into their own shit and hope they get angry too. The only way for this to be non-violent is to completely withdraw ourselves from the system in all aspects and en masse. Take away their real power.
