    For mobile top because I keep accidentally pressing the home button with my hand and it’s annoying.

    And for PC on the top of course because anything else is illegal.


  • Right now I’ve completely given up candy and soda for about 3 years now. I hate the business practices of candy companies and how they target children and make their shit as addictive as possible. They use ultra vibrant packaging to get kids eyes to lock to the product and they know kids will beg for it until they get it and they put it on their eye level and on the sides of the checkout lines.

    The entire candy thing is just scummy and I hate it so much. I personally see it as legal drugs for children.

    I saw a few of these “vandalized” billboards until I looked it up and realized it’s just an advertising scheme. It’s so fucking stupid because I thought these fuckers got what they deserved until I realize they themselves did it just to get people to look at their ads more and create discussion.





  • It seems like most people at my highschool are familiar with their basic favorite apps and can get a not great grasp on new applications and programs. But other than that it seems like a lot of people seem hopeless because they might now how to use their favorite apps well, but the second anything errors out of bugs out or they install a new app that isn’t so user friendly their brain just powers down. They don’t even try to Google it.

    This is one thing that kinda concerns me is they people stay in their little apple ecosystem and use the most basic apps they don’t really get that experience of actually googling s error code or a specific bug. Even people who use their phones half the day still don’t know shit about anything because they don’t leave their bubble.

    But I know it’s not everyone’s thing to try to step out of the bubble and learn how to troubleshoot and fix stuff. But there is so much cool stuff out there that they just refuse to learn because they didn’t immediately understand the app. It’s like they are scratching the ice with how much they can do with their devices and they don’t even try to go deeper.






  • But I mean you can host it publicly and be fine if you put enough effort into hiding yourself I would assume. But even if it’s in plain sight doesn’t mean it won’t be taken down quickly. Also it depends on country to country too, some counties might take swift action while some might put it on the back burner for a long time or won’t even try at all.

    But anyone anywhere can host an instance and they can try to hide the best they can and it might actually work. Yes it’s a stupid decision to do that in the first place but that won’t stop people. Even if it’s up for a week then that’s a problem.
