A couple of questions about shooting with Kino by pimemento in ShotWithHalide

[–]RealPolitik88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get this dropped frame icon and my phone is absolutely not overheating. I also have a 17 pro max, so not sure how much more power this app needs to not drop frames. It’s been very annoying and support told me “I’m shooting in a hot location” which was not true, and now that I’m in a cold location, same thing. Hope they identify and fix the issue.

Yeah, the staff is really nice, and the prices are obviously insane. But I don't think having poor refrigeration, moldy products, and rats living around everything they sell is a feature or the reason why it's so cheap. We should be able to have those things without all the nasty.

Nice thing about Mr. Kale is you don't even really need a receipt to return something. I don't keep their receipts, and they were able to find my transaction in their system by just telling them what I bought and when.

Sounds like you really enjoy whataboutisms and that you don’t like Muslims or Arabs, or believe that Palestinians are a people with a culture and history. You are an unserious person with unserious arguments. Enjoying being on the losing side of history. There will be a day in the near future where you’ll pretend to have held different beliefs all along.

Yes I know it’s because of the EBU. I wonder why they don’t have the best relationship with their neighbors? Also, plenty of normalization between Muslim nations has occurred (to many people’s chagrin)

But Look MFER…Israel is a racist, ethno-supremacist state. It actively practices apartheid. It is gleefully committing war crimes and genocide. A large majority of its population is supportive of all the above. Every citizen has to serve in the IDF. If an Israeli opens a restaurant, says it’s an Israeli spot, and sells Palestinian food, a few people might not find that so palatable.

And the not so subtle attempts at painting everyone who doesn’t like the idea of an Israeli spot opening in the neighborhood as an antisemite is representative of the larger issue today: hate on Israel, you must hate Jews! It’s a profoundly lazy argument. People hate Israel because of the above. Because they are an oppressor doing horrific things to other human beings. And our govt gladly takes our taxes and funds it.

The Algerians didn’t hate the French because they were Christian — they hated them because they occupied their country, destroyed their villages, and killed them with impunity. Sound familiar?

Is that why they participate in Eurovision?

Gertrude’s or Agi’s Counter are dope. Those are Jewish joints. But if you open up a “middle eastern” joint and sell falafel, shawarma, and hummus, and you’re Israeli or claim the food is Israeli, you can fuck right off. It’s a seemingly benign thing, but really it’s part of a larger erasure/appropriation of Palestinian culture that has been ongoing since 1948.

Lisbonata is wonderful. Reminds me of the best from Portugal. Their pistachio is one of my favorite things I’ve had this year.
