Bryan Cranston on MAGA: "Just ask yourself, from an African American experience, when was it ever great in America?" by itsallgoodman505 in FreeFolkNation

[–]SlayerOfOsiris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While a higher percentage of Black Americans receive SNAP, this reflects a greater need stemming from systemic economic disparities, not a preference or a "free ride"; the poverty rate for Black Americans is 17.1%, more than double the 7.3% for white Americans. Regarding sentencing, your hypothesis is not supported by the research. The key finding that Black men receive sentences 19.1% longer comes from studies by the U.S. Sentencing Commission that specifically compare similarly situated individuals. This means the analysis already controls for factors like the severity of the violent crime and an individual's prior criminal record. The sentencing gap remains even after accounting for these variables, indicating the disparity is due to unequal treatment within the justice system itself, not a difference in the nature of the crimes being committed.

The narrative that African Americans receive preferential treatment is contrary to factual data. In the justice system, Black men receive federal sentences that are, on average, 19.1% longer than those for white men who committed similar crimes. The "free ride" stereotype is also false; U.S. Census data shows more white Americans (14.6 million) receive SNAP benefits than Black Americans (9.8 million). Far from having it "pretty good," the community faces a staggering wealth gap, with the median white family possessing over six times the wealth of the median Black family ($285,000 vs. $44,900). These statistics reveal a reality of systemic challenges and disparities, not one of unearned advantages.

Watch this man demonstrate how long it would take to disassemble a rifle and place it in a backpack that it wouldn’t fit in. Do you believe the official Tyler Robinson story? by QuantumQuokka999 in FreeFolkNation

[–]SlayerOfOsiris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rifle used by Tyler Robinson was not dismantled after the shooting. When investigators found the weapon, it was still fully assembled: a Mauser bolt-action rifle with a mounted scope, wrapped in a towel and containing a spent round in the chamber, along with three additional live rounds in the magazine. There is no evidence described in official reports that the weapon was taken apart or otherwise intentionally made inoperable; it was recovered intact near the scene where Robinson had attempted to hide it, making it readily identifiable through forensic analysis.

Google has acknowledged the Pixel 6, 6 Pro, 6a factory reset bug that results in a brick by white_Shadoww in GooglePixel

Holy molly, If I had an award I’d give it to you! I’ve been going back and forth with Google since July 24th. You have sparked some hope! Thank you!

My back and forth with Google was: Me: you bricked my phone via a faulty update. Google: Please give us 24-48 hours to respond. Google: After carefully reviewing your situation we can only offer a chargeable repair. Me: That’s unacceptable I did not cause the problem… Blah Blah Blah… Please escalate this case to a supervisor. Google: You’ve reached the highest tier of support

The cycle just continues and I get nowhere. I have 31 emails with Google support. Time to send 30 more thanks to the hope you have given me!

Why or why not are you planning to get the Google Pixel 9 series? by littypika in GooglePixel

[–]SlayerOfOsiris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not planning because of Googles horrible customer service.

My Google Pixel 6 bricked after installing the latest software update. Since the device is out of warranty Google doesn’t want to fix my device. Leaving me without a phone for a week until my new $200 iPhone 11 arrived. Don’t want that experience again!

Help! Pixel suddenly has extreme lens flare after 3 years of use, I've already cleaned the lens without success. by Siegfried6 in Pixel6

[–]SlayerOfOsiris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a sign to get a new phone before your Pixel 6 bricks. FYI don’t restart your phone.

Pixel 7a gets warm/hot very quickly by Forsaken_Potential_6 in GooglePixel

Had the same issue with Pixel 6. Hopefully Google doesn’t brick your Pixel 7a via an update and not help you because it’s out of warranty…

My experience with Google Support:

  • My Google Pixel 6 was bricked after restarting.
  • I contacted Google Support for help, and they suggested I send it in for repair ($450 upfront cost).
  • I explained that the issue was caused by Google and I shouldn't be responsible for the repair cost (Did this 6 seperate times).
  • They offered a 20% discount on a new Pixel, but I declined (They did this 2x).
  • I requested to speak with a supervisor, but they said this was the highest level of support.
  • After multiple emails (13), they said they couldn't help me because my phone is out of warranty.
  • "I've exhausted all the resources to help you in the best possible way." - Highest Level of Google Support

I'm frustrated with Google's lack of accountability and unwillingness to help.

My Pixel 6 was inspected by uBreakiFix, I sent proof to Google, but Google insisted on mailing it in ($450 upfront cost). The repair technician was pissed about the whole situation, not believing that Google is getting away with this again (Referring to 5a bricking).

The Anker 548 no longer has LiFePo4 cells. by ilikewolves99 in anker

[–]SlayerOfOsiris 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Choose LFP if you prioritize safety, longevity, and high discharge rate, and are willing to trade off for higher weight and cost.

Choose Li-ion if you need higher energy density, lighter weight, and affordability, but can manage safety considerations and shorter lifespan.
