  • They’re actively blocking North American and international iPhones from connecting to their Network. Apple has updates for each region that automatically download when you get there, but they’re claiming it’s a trade secret so only the phones they sell can get that update that’s made by Apple for them. It isn’t even a firmware update it’s a little app that downloads in the background. Google does the same thing with Android, the pixel line, and anything running the stock with Google services or pixel experience.



  • The people who are responsible for the turtle with the straw in the nose video where from the paper straw company. That happened right before the corn plastic straws at the market and after the video all plastic straws were banned in most metropolitan areas, that banned the corn plastic “environmentally friendly” straws before they even hit the market. The paper straws have forever chemicals in them and are essentially Teflon coated so they’re not environmentally friendly at all.







  • Nestle didn’t really do shit. They did steal water from a lake but it wasn’t very much. This is related to wonderful creating a fake water board to steal all the water from under a town. Then when they were getting enough water from the town they made a scheme to pool water from the aquifer to store it underground for later drug use but they didn’t store anything they just took it from the aquifer while they were still pumping way too much water from underground.


  • I’m in California and it was on by default. To comply with California rolls anyone in the US who resides in California can be covered even though it’s not their billing address. So enabling anything like that by default or not prompting to have permission for cookies or selling data is in violation for anyone who does business in California. The gdpr rules also apply to anyone who’s in EU citizen or resident even if they’re outside of the EU so since T-Mobile does business in both they need to comply.









  • I can’t recall seeing any legal head or tail lights that have flickering issues. We will hopefully see this issue less and less as people are no longer allowed to buy the illegal retrofit kits from places that sell headlights. We’ve seen a lot less people running the Sylvania super bright off-road lights now that you’re not allowed to buy them from the headlight section of an auto parts store and online stores are not allowed to sell them without off-road use popup warnings.

    I really wish that instead of useless trash like drunk driver checkpoints midweek we would start seeing headlight inspection points or other vehicle inspection points to check for safety issues like these; if we’re going to keep having these checkpoints for no reason.
