Swang that thang brother, be proud of the progress. It’s not about the meat, it’s about the spirit that drives it.

Trans floridians please evacuate the storm, the rest of em can stay there

Most F-Droid stuff AFAIK should be pretty plug and play. It’ll download an APK which you then just open in order to install the app. You may need a file browser app if your phone OS doesn’t come with one. You may also need to allow installs from third party somewhere in the settings. But android isn’t like iOS and won’t generally restrict your ability to install whatever you want, outside of an options popup to make sure you know what you’re doing.

I don’t use LibreTube personally and can’t speak on that specifically though, if it does something other than just download you an APK file.

“Have a nive day”

Not nice, nive, as in I hope your day is full of knives

This statement by itself restores a ton of my faith in you. I have no weight to throw around here and ultimately my opinion is more or less meaningless, but in my meaningless opinion, if an actual effort is made to improve on this then I’m happy to have you stay. A simple apology, explanation and promise is more than I’ve gotten out of 99% of all other moderators I’ve ever interacted with.

That just means it’s good satire

As it seems to me, who hung around with a lot of drug users back in the day, as well as regular folks: most people who are interested in trying them can and will get their hands on it regardless of legality, sometimes easily. It’s about as low risk of a crime as there is. Those who aren’t interested, won’t, again regardless of legality. There will be edge cases where somebody will go “Ah what the hell, it’s legal now, why not” and toddle on over to their local dispensary for the first time but largely speaking anybody that wants to smoke weed or snort coke is probably already doing it.

Now what probably would change is the number of people on record using drugs, per capita, over the next few generations if it becomes normalized like alcohol has been. Which makes sense. But, counterpoint to that, in countries where they have legalized many drugs they still often have lower rates of severe addiction because they’ve generally also set up safety nets for those folks. Accessible medical care and available addiction treatment options will keep many drug users from hitting rock bottom, but we don’t really have that in the US so many users will often go unassisted in any way for ages and lose jobs and homes because of it, only getting “help” when it becomes forced upon them by the state (which is frequently not in any way helpful).

Anyway, I’m rambling, but tl;dr it’s definitely a multifaceted situation and blanket legalization probably isn’t a great move without accompanying medical and social support, which needs to happen anyway regardless of any moves for drug legalization. Gotta walk before we can run, unfortunately.

If anybody’s gonna know what will kill you…

It’s more likely than you think

Older flash bulbs weren’t really made for long uptime. If you were using your flashlight for under a minute looking for something it was fine but any longer than that and it would start getting really hot. Once manufacturers caught on that everyone was using apps for it (and potentially damaging their phone in the process due to heat) we got better bulbs and baked in controls for it.

Those two will drop incoming Legion goons from outside of render range. Boone will jump-scare me with sudden camera pans to exploding Legion heads while I didn’t even know combat was happening.

Red Dead Redemption 2 has been on this list since the release of the steam deck because the 3 people still trying to play that game on the deck haven’t finished loading the world yet

He sounds like the Technology Connections of fruit

Zefrank makes exactly the sort of content that’s required to get bored kids interested in a science. He is doing us a public service.

That word, I don’t think it means what you think it means.

Never accused them of being smart…

We have. You can buy cheap-ass smartphones at Walmart, etc with ads baked into the OS. Lots of my folks are pretty broke living down in Louisiana and have them. If you need a phone cheap, say for example you can’t afford a real phone and you’re planning to sell some drugs, they’re some of the cheapest usable phones you can get.

Hell yeah, one of my top life goals is to get sacked by goths

Terry Pratchett’s Discworld approaches magic as a fundamental force akin to gravity or nuclear force. It even has a unit of measurement (the Thaum, further broken down into millithaums, etc)

There are a whole host of reasons you should read Discworld but this just adds another.
