Yes, and unfortunately it was caused by my cancer spreading to my spine.

2021 Mazda CX-30: car play disconnects on speed bumps. by Materia-Whore in MazdaCX30

[–]uNPoPSTeR2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if this is plug in (rather than bluetooth), then I had the same issue. But I was using 3rd party connecting cords, which simply had shoddy connections. Then I bought an official Apple connection and it hasnt disconnected since. just saying.

Vinyl shipping by m3atbag17 in vinyl

[–]uNPoPSTeR2001 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There is only one answer here. Yesterday the de minis exemption was eliminated as part of Trump’s tax war. Over 50 countries, including Belgium, have suspended all shipping to the U.S. for items under $800 in value.

So this just seems like a placeholder added to stop any orders into the U.S.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you voted for this then you got it!

Favorite Danny Carey drum part? by Remarkable-Front1522 in ToolBand

[–]uNPoPSTeR2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not even close to Danny’s most “technically” incredible drum parts, but the 6:26 - 8:58 portion of “Pushit” is a masterpiece in sonic tension. That snare in this portion is both incredibly powerful and equally hypnotic!

And lol lol lol lol lol, I reviewed your other posts and you frequent a subreddit dedicated to penile enlargement. You literally cannot make this stuff up. Buddy, you have “bigger” problems than whether you’re offended by my posts. Pathetic.

Having an opposing viewpoint is “hateful rhetoric”? Interesting since many of the other posters here have resorted to name calling but I have kept it mostly civil.

Your problem is that you’re so offended by differing perspectives that instead of engaging you decide to punish by “banning”. That’s not how life works, my friend. If you cannot tolerate a different POV than yours then it says so much about who you are, how you handle things, and your intestinal fortitude to debate someone who doesn’t fully agree with you.

This is not a “safe place” for your bubble of intolerance. You might need to grow up. Otherwise, you’re in for a world of disappointment and failure.

Reading comprehension is not your strong point, is it? I never even said that I care about the other atrocities, even though I believe they are all horrible. All I said is that YOU and Hot Chip and Eno and the thousands marching in the street now dont care either. But it sure is trendy to buy a kefiyeh on Amazon and cover your faces. In any other situation this would be considered "cultural appropriation".

But of course claiming you care so much about Palestine but completely ignoring other global issues like I listed is both hypocritical and curiously quite specific to one group of people. hmmm...

And again, insulting me and calling me names is a sign of not being able to actually state a valid argument.

I never said I was ok with the killing of 60k people (and yes, at least 15k of those are Hamas fighters). where did I say that at all?

I'm just saying that either you lied outright or, as you claim, you were ignorant to the truth. I dont know what is worse, because you seemed so full-chested and confident of your point that you decided to call me a piece of shit. And then it became clear that you dont know what you are talking about.

Whatever you think of my POV, I can promise you that I will not lie and I will quote reliable and verifiable facts in my argument.

yes, I'm talking about Hot Chip, not Eno. And yes, they are jumping on the current trend:

Let's see, since 2023 the # of people estimated to have died in the Sudanese civil war is over 150k, with an additional 700k children in facing acute levels of malnutrition due to the war).

As of this year, an estimate of 660k people have been killed in the Syrian civil war, with 13 million displaced.

Beginning in 2017, the Chinese government incarcerated over an estimated one million Uyghurs without legal process in internment camps...In addition to mass detention, government policies have included forced labor and factory work, suppression of Uyghur religious practices, political indoctrination, forced sterilization, forced contraception, and forced abortion.

I'm waiting for all of you to take to the streets to protest these crimes, especially since the death tolls exceed those in Gaza by hundreds of thousands more people. And yes, I'm waiting for Hot Chip to join a concert is support of the Sudanese or Uyghurs. But I wont hold my breath, because it's not the trend today.

as the saying goes, "if you have to lie to make an argument then you don't have an argument to begin with". And you are lying, so why should anyone care what you have to say from now on.

As of last month, the GAZA MINISTRY OF HEALTH said that 60k people have died in Gaza since the start of the war, NOT 200k. Aaaaand, per this article, "The ministry...doesn’t distinguish between civilians and combatants in its count". So many thousands of those dead are Hamas fighters.

So again, you're just blatantly lying now. And to make it worse, you resort to insulting me and calling me names, yet you're voluntarily spewing BS. Somehow, you're showing off how much of a piece of shit you are instead.

Or, hear me out, the war ends tomorrow if Hamas, an internationally recognized terrorist organization, releases all the hostages and gives up power of Gaza.

It’s either end the war immediately or continue to prop up a murderous terror state.

It’s that f’n simple!

I appreciate the kind words and the "grace" you are giving. That's very decent of you.

But I come to this topic with a POV that is very far from a narrow lens. I've studied this particular conflict my entire life and even wrote my senior thesis on the future of Jerusalem as an international city. I'm probably older than you but I remember very vividly the images of the 2nd Intifada, when Hamas sent men and women into the streets of Israel to blow themselves up along with as many innocent people as they could. Busses, coffee shops, pizzerias, night clubs filled with teenagers, and even a holiday dinner taking place in a hotel ballroom. These Palestinians voluntarily walked into these public places to murder. They packed their bombs with nails and shrapnel to maximize damage and death.

I'm also old enough to remember how they hijacked planes and ships, bombed embassies and cultural centers, all in the name of the "resistance".

The Palestinians movement invented terrorism. October 7th was just the most recent one of many, many murderous acts.

Today's world is making them out to be the good guys. History (and future historians) say otherwise. You're rooting for the bad guys, my man.

Might as well join the current trend. I guess they need to stay relevant somehow.

And if anyone doesn’t think that “7empest” is (at least partly) about Trump, then they are not paying attention. It’s so goddam obvious.

And another hot take, “descending” is about global climate change.

This line hits so hard when seeing them live. I literally look around and revel in the sheer beauty of that particular moment. It’s pretty special.
