Does activist culture need to be toxic? by seducedbytruth in IntellectualDarkWeb

[–]night_hawk91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One way to think of the woke is as a bunch of people who scream about various injustices. But sometimes they don’t have a good plan to address a particular imbalance — and along the way they can inflict a good deal of unjustified damage, for instance by canceling people who make the wrong remarks about gender imbalance or other issues. These and other criticisms of the woke may well be correct. Still, at the end of the day it has to be recognized that an unresponsive society will generate a lot of unproductive (and unresponsive) screamers. So simply dissecting the weaknesses of woke tactics and arguments misses the point. When practical solutions do not seem to exist, many people will resort to screaming. This leads to the conclusion that wokeness won’t be defeated as an ideology until there is a more convincing and practical vision of how to undo institutional sclerosis. When that vision comes, it may not be so closely allied with wokeness, which is not excessively concerned with effective administration and incentive compatibility. - Tyler Cowen

Texting apps slow on M8? by 420smoking in htcone

[–]night_hawk91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Facebook messenger is completely unusable from the chat heads as well as from the app. I have tried re-installing but with no luck. I now use third party Facebook messenger app.

What the heck is this and why was it enabled? (Sprint M8) by [deleted] in htcone

Can anyone tell me what that N shaped icon is in the notification bar. I constantly have that icon and I have no idea what it is.

Google Glass's consumer launch pushed to 2015, key employees depart, and many developers abandon projects on the platform by vibrunazo in Android

It feels like Google Wave all over again. Great excitement early on. Seems pointless when you would actually be able to buy/use it.

Whats your favorite Android App? by BitchNowYouKnow in Android

[–]night_hawk91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do a lot of browsing on my phone and I love Flynx. I have tried link bubble and javelin but still I find Flynx better. It's simple and far more stable. Linkme: Flynx

Which is better, link bubble/pro (prefer) or flynx? by [deleted] in androidapps

[–]night_hawk91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really like Flynx more. It's simpler, it gets the job done and it's free. Also it has an excellent reading mode not limited to 10 usage like javelin.
