deprecated operating system problems

In this place. Likely a significant segment only use pixel's because of Graphene OS, but that may be changing soon because google is doing worthless stupid shit and making Android much less open source in practice.

I don't ever shop for hardware specifications for anything any more. I look for hardware that open source software projects support, and try to buy whatever the lead developers seem to own based on the repo history visualization in the gource package on Linux. All mobile system-on-chip (processors) and cell modems are undocumented proprietary junk and running proprietary orphaned kernels. So all available devices are just rentals at ownership prices. This is classic criminal extortion. I don't trust software from any criminal enterprise such as this, so I shop for who creates the best alternative available without criminal control as much as possible. Graphene or Lineage OS are two common options.

Is an early demo AR4 from the AR revamp in '14. Previous generation was a wet noodle. We only did FR's for years, but they wanted our chain to buy into the AR and a few ultra high end IA's, so I got the free demo.

This is how I started before working in bike shops.

It isn't Epstein files

You mourning people kill me. It's 2am here right now. I'm just to the point of tears level pain from lying in one spot too long. I'll be asleep by 3 and up again by 7, 9 if I'm lucky.

Me too. Atomic Frontier is following a similar ultra dense respect-your-time videography-nerd polymath approach to YT.

I'm too fragile IRL after a broken neck and back. I'm way above average for height and build, and not fat, but barely surviving sucks. Holding posture to sit or stand is extremely limited for me. I get injured by the dumbest seemingly inconsequential nonsense, like looking in the wrong direction can get me. I don't know if I'd survive that depression fodder from the frustration of trying. So nope, I wouldn't. She would probably kill me, but so would small king for that matter.

I did not mean to prejudice. Sorry.

Most athletes make next to nothing. Like I worked with a 3 time Olympic track rider. At that level, the sport consumes your whole life just to complete at Olympics level. No one at the Olympics is making money at it. Everyone is broke and barely skating by. I worked with pro cycling teams and it was the same story for all, even many recognizable names are just poor people that love it in many cases. There are very very few big name celebrity types that actually make good money.

Poor girl. I've never met a super tall girl that liked being tall. In my teens I worked Nordstrom women's shoes. That is one of the only places with a stock of very large sizes.

Super tall women are an involuntary circus act everywhere they go. I don't envy that. All I have met have a certain sadness in their eyes. I'm sure there are exceptions, but I see sad eyes here.

That is insane. Like literally an 8 speed 11/36 with a triple compact chainring set attached to the inside, and a medium size one at that. Like chainings for cyclocross are traditionally 46t for the big ring. There is no way that thing wears evenly. They really should start selling subassemblies.

That is prejudice nonsense politics.

Release the Epstein files now!

In broader context here, I'm working through some issues with how I deal with my family, while also reflecting on my own biases.

My thought process is radically different from yours. Neither is some right or wrong in an oversimplified dichotomy. In real life we would likely struggle to find common ground in many instances.

I do not know how I feel without taking pause and mulling it over. I can easily tell you what comes to mind in the moment, but that has little to do with the real me. The thing is, I don't really care all that much about how I feel. I do not care to live in that space. I'm driven by curiosity. My view of other people is more like statistics. I'm rarely ever surprised by people. Most people that hurt me in some way were expected as a potential probable outcome. The probabilities of people are a curiosity of mine.

People that are focused inward on their emotions do not make sense to me probabilistically speaking. They are whimsical and random in many respects. I've been hurt by people many times before, especially when I was young. I have learned to never find myself in a vulnerable position with someone that lacks independent ethics to do the right thing when it counts. My real emotions are reserved for cohabitation and no one is welcome in that space without an invitation. So apologizing to me doesn't mean anything. Be a better person and improve themselves to be less predictably terrible, that would be an amusing curiosity. When I know someone is focused inwards on their emotions, I might placate them when needed, but that is limited to trivial misunderstandings when I am aware of them happening. I live by my independent sense of ethics that I subject myself to entirely without exception. Unless you're off somewhere in crazy land, I will always treat you fairly and amicably, but no different than anyone else.

When it comes to irreversible wrongs. I still fall into two wrongs do not make a right. Restitution is ethically obligatory, but beyond that is pointless. If the issue could harm someone else in a preventable way, then that should be addressed, but stuff like vengeance and punishment for the sake of it is stupid to me. For stuff like companies, companies are not people and should be extremely prejudiced in an ethical society. Businesses should be easy to start and even easier to fail, and any excuse to fail should be due cause. That is real capitalism in practice.

Anyways, my sense of judgement is like a 3rd party abstract person in my head. They are not part of my emotions. That separation of judgment from emotions is my definition of the absence of narcissism at a fundamental level. I care more about doing the right thing than I care about doing what is best for me. I'm quite reliable in that respect. I keep people at a distance because that can make me vulnerable to less consistently reliable people, especially when times are hard and it really counts.

Someone is tying the string to hurt people. This was one of my biggest fears that someone might do while commuting after dark. I've seen many intentional hazards placed over the years and hit a few, but never anything tied across a path. Fortunately I never rode in a place with this kind of criminally incompetent infrastructure mismanagement.
