  • She’s an active and very outspoken billionaire anti trans rights lobbiest that also donates a ton of money to other anti trans causes. Her works is the fighting grounds on whether you support her and align with her hate and ignorance, or condemn the hate and work against her getting any more contracts in the future and thus any more money. She’s an absolute wretched human being.

    Don’t buy stuff that she gets money from. Don’t watch stuff that she gets money from.

    Don’t participate in anything that gives her any more power.

    The difference between her and other artists is in power. She has WAY more power and is actively using it and being successful. Trans people already have it super shitty, and it gets shittier everyday because of people like her and Musk.

    Stop watching HP. Stop reading HP. Let it go. You don’t need to even pirate it. Just move on. There’s plenty of way better stuff out there. You’ll be okay.








  • I mean, an arguably better counterargument would just be: you aren’t secure by a massive amount as it is with your normal stuff and the dedicated level by which somebody would have to be to try to vector in through a lightbulb would be state sponsored.

    But also, non wifi bulbs just don’t introduce this issue at all and never will.

    But also, I also use and like rgb smart lights/bulbs, so there’s that.

    It’s not even good light, either. It’s really narrow band light that isn’t natural, and so is really bad for fast object recognition and is blinding and glare.

    Like using a laser pointer to illuminate stuff, it’s just gonna blind you and not really make it easier to see.

    And it fucks up your ability to see outside of that light source, like having a really bright monitor in a dark room that you ALSO need to see.

    There’s a good video explanation somewhere…

    I think this was the one https://youtu.be/Uq7pfrognGM

    But it also doesn’t even take into account all the other stupid design issues.

    It’s basically just dumbass advertising and dumbass ignorant people buying into it. Like computer monitor tech when “hd” became a thing or refresh rate on lcds and companies playing fuckfuck number games advertising the biggest number they can. Or speaker companies advertising cheap garbage by how loud it can technically get but it actually sounds like absolute garbage and pisses everybody off when you blast your cheap piss everywhere. I fucking hate these shitty headlights so goddamn much.

    Like if would be one thing if it was perfect light and was just bad for ecosystems at night. But no, it’s like the loudest, screechiest bullshit screaming light that blinds everybody for no fucking reason AND DOESN’T EVEN MAKE IT EASIER TO SEE FOR THE USER because now you have to also have (you don’t have to have) these shields that bar off the top edges of the lights to not blind other people, but now you have this massive contrast edge between shitty blinding light where your object recognition is ass, and DEAD BLACK UNLIT AREA which… To make matters fucking worse, encourages the user TO TURN ON THEIR HIGH BEAMS FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKK!!!
