The last time I borrowed a Netflix account every show or movie would start at 1080p and then negotiate itself down to like 240p over 3-4 minutes. I have a very fast connection that can stream 4K just fine elsewhere and Netflix’s settings were set to high quality. They are just cheapskates that throttle based on your account patterns.

It’s a FNC host. They are rehearsed corporate propagandists. They will try out many lines to see what sticks in support of their agenda - in this case, militarized police via the NG.

Note that this general trend is bipartisan in its essence, they just use different terminology and implementations. The previous administration inflated federal funding for police and their use of “free” military equipment. You might get to enjoy this at future protests when they give you permanent hearing damage with an LRAD.

Both of these came in response to protests. It is the capitalist boot being laced to stomp on our faces. When we demand racial justice, no genocide, really anything against capital, they will do this. We have to be ready for it and not take advice from them on how to organize politically or protest.

But how else will you enjoy the smell of hot piss among 500 insufferable tourists?

Great job! I’ve always avoided Surfaces because the guides to running Linux on them are always like 30 pages long.

The only part that matters re: leftism is to think about how you want to handle crackdowns, which is less about which bank you choose and more about infosec. For example, don’t use your personal bank account for spicy business. Use cash if you can and some third party (even a company or non-profit) to shield your personal financea from governments freezing accounts. And if you develop savings, consider having an emergency fund with a different bank in a country that is unlikely to cooperate with freezing your assets.
