Last year, Apple outraged independent technicians when they updated the Iphone design to prevent third party repair, adding a “feature” that allowed handsets to detect when their screens had been swapped (even when they’d been swapped for an original, Apple-manufactured screen) and refuse to function until they got an official Apple unlock code.

Now, this system has come to the MacBook Pros and Imac Pros, thanks to the “T2 security chip” which will render systems nonfunctional after replacing the keyboard, screen, case, or other components, until the a proprietary Apple “configuration tool” is used to unlock the system.

Apple does not tell its customers that the computers it sells are designed to punish them for opting to get their property repaired by independent technicians; the details of the T2 came from a leaked service manual.

his name is tsuda daisuke and his youtube channel is JETDAISUKE! he mostly does tech reviews these days but i seriously recommend some of his vlogs because he’s pretty entertaining and puts english closed captions on lots of his stuff

but here’s where it gets interesting

y’all remember death note?

Y’ALL REMEMBER THIS OPENING???

it’s a song called “what’s up people” by the band MAXIMUM THE HORMONE, and if you’ve ever given the official music video a look, you’ll immediately notice one of the guitarists is a kind of wild looking dude making demon faces.

this is a still image of the band; he’s the one on the left with the long hair and black shirt, pulling another great face.

that man?

is tsuda daisuke. 

in other words, the sand de panda open sandwich guy is also a guitarist for a kickass japanese metalcore band who contributed one of the sickest anime openings of all time to one of the greatest animes of all time. and imo maximum the hormone has some pretty fuckin awesome music in general, i reccommend their buiikikaesu album if you like what’s up people; it has that song on it and many others that i personally enjoy. (just be warned that their music videos and lyrical content is very often NSFW in nature!)

but if nu metal isn’t really your jam and you just like the sand de panda video, please at least watch the video where he makes rice with entirely too many hot peppers and gets some up his nose by accident. it’s great. it’s maybe not as meme-able as the sand de panda video, but it’s pretty funny

Basically if their quota falls below 90% capacity, they legally sue the state for not providing them with a “product.” Which is, usually, lower income Americans of color.

Also, the Supreme Court decided in Bevins v. Six Unnamed Agents of FBI, that American citizens do NOT have the right to sue private prisons for violations of the 1st amendment.

mmk i’ve got v few followers but i’m hoping this helps at least one person so here I go.

Apple is coming out with something called ““Apple screentime” which will basically allow your parents to see what apps you use when and set restrictions and shit for when you can use what apps. If you are in a situation where you have apps or social media’s or really anything you don’t/can’t have your parents know about DELETE THAT SHIT before September 1st when this comes out. This works through the ““family sharing” shit on your iCloud account so if you can either leave your “family” or use a different Apple ID  or something. 

If you can’t do that, I personally access Tumblr and discord and YouTube and everything else through my laptop and the Pinterest web browser (yes that’s a thing) so if that’s an option for any of you out there join me. 

I decided to find out more, and it is possible to hide apps from Family Sharing without deleting them! Apple themselves said how to do it, here you go:

Over at Woke Giant you’ll find some seriously cool, retro-styled “political art for third century America.” Don’t miss the downloadable protest signs!

“Sephora will start selling entry-level witch kits in October.”

All right witches, listen up.

Sephora is to begin selling a “witch kit” next month featuring a tarot deck, fragrances, a sage bundle, and a rose quartz crystal for $42.

I think it’s wonderful that witchcraft is making a resurgence, but what I don’t think is wonderful, is that a huge corporation like Sephora is trying to tap into this market.

Why don’t I like it?

Because Sephora has their fingers in enough pies and generates over $4 billion in revenue per year.

Because witchcraft produce and supplies should be provided by people with knowledge on the practise(s) and who care enough to make sure their products are ethical, of a high quality, and non-appropriative.

Because Sephora will be stealing business from actual witchcraft and occult centric shops who likely don’t make huge sums of money anyway due to the niche nature of the market.

Because Sephora doesn’t need the fucking money!

So, I urge you to share this post and refrain from purchasing this “entry-level” witch kit (and any future witchcraft related product) from Sephora. Instead, support small, witch-owned businesses. We need you and we’ve got your backs.

I once was at a show where I asked Esad about this cover.

Esad is a big, cheerful, man with a wicked sense of humor.

He just looked at me.

And then he smiled.

And the smile got bigger.

And bigger.

And he said, “And nobody at Marvel noticed!”
