The goop from alkaline batteries is basic.

Modern dish washing soap is absolutely fantastic. Put some of it in a spray bottle alongside water.

I like living here in the future with synthetic cleaning products.

Whenever I need to clean battery contacts in used electronics I grab the jug of vinegar.

One time I didn’t have vinegar, so I used my aunt’s diet coke lol. Carbonic acid did clean the battery “acid”! Not very well though, it got used up quickly.

The whole line of events is so batshit insane it’s something only reality can produce.

Something something “reality is stranger then fiction”.

Gatekeeping technology is a personal irritation of mine.

The famicom and capacitor electrolytes should not belong to individual companies, they belong to all of humanity.

Anyone else have their head stuck in the “cheap nasty embedded computing” stretch of sand under the “tech sun”?

…That was a really weird metaphor.

Cheap famiclones excite me, not modern graphics cards.

The pigs around me like to steal ebikes.

Of course they call it “”““impounding””“” but really it’s just legalized theft. Fucking piss buckets.

Would that even work? Crows are smart, I’d think they’d be able to tell if it’s a camera or a feeder.

Getting temporarily banned from the whole site for advocating against occupied Palestine is what got me to delete the app.

They blacklisted r/fullcommunism for getting John Brown on the front page.

I want my brain shoved into a jar and stored somewhere. Banking on brain mapping and weird hacky optimizations to make the computational stuff work.

That they don’t just think they deserve to tell you what you should think, but they should manipulate you to think it?

Tbf my dumb web browser game does this.

It checks if the system language (those “en-us” like strings) is set to Ukrainian or Hebrew. If it is, it’ll set the url to something else, effectively redirecting the user.

I don’t want zionists and state sanctioned neo-nazis playing my shitty game. Liberals would probably call my arrogance, which I am being arrogant, but frankly I don’t think people who go around murdering civilians deserve to play my game!

I’d ban the United States, but I do live there. Besides it’s mostly a political statement, and it’s dead easy to bypass.

I will remove Ukraine when the war ends though, regardless of the outcome. (Unless I already removed them. I don’t quite remember.)

…Maybe I should add TERF island to the ban list lol.

I like being able to touch the things. The tactile feedback of something in my hands is nice.

Also: Don’t have much digital storage.

I enjoy Ben Norton’s content.
