don't tune it out. there are people being deported, people afraid for their rights and their lives. people not paying attention is how we got the Holocaust

I go to a chiropractor for chronic back pain. they do wonders. the trick is to find someone with actual qualifications, not the sketchy ones that hurt peoole

ain't no way you truly believe the only determining factor in someone's opportunities is financial. the only racist here is you. I only hope you can mature enough to realize that someday.

damn I was unaware. guess I haven't done any gun shopping in a hot second (although that may change soon considering the way everything seems to be going in America lol)

jesus my friend you should go read some literature and hopefully reconcile some of your opinions with yourself. I reccomend the wretched of the earth by franz fanon.

edit: and for the love of god, no one hates you because your white. that's taking the original post wayyyy out of context. even if you could be racist against white people (which you seem very intent on believing even though every expert opinion disagrees with you), it wouldn't be racist to say white people historically have sided with cops and turned a blind eye. just like it's not racist to say black people have historically been disadvantaged. because it's a true observation that isn't pushing any kind of narrative.

I don't think you understand what racism is. racism is when a group that is historically disadvantaged is prejudiced against. like black people, for example, who have had an entire power structure against them both historically and presently in this country. you cannot be racist against white people because there isn't a power dynamic there. you can be prejudiced against white people, but racism implies an uneven power structure.

are they wrong tho? white people historically have been entirely complicit with cops

found this decently relevant stack exchange on USB c symmetry: https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/685358/why-does-this-usb-c-connection-only-work-in-one-connector-orientation

based on my (non electrical engineer) read of the top response, it seems like the pins that connect for power delivery communication (how the device tells how to treat the device that's being plugged in) aren't symmetrical and can sometimes misbehave, but again, I don't really know what I'm talking about lol

fun rabbit hole tho, thanks!

wow. I'm honestly super curious as to why that happened. the USB c was designed to be quite symmetrical so it doesn't make a difference in how you plug it in, each connector is still touching the same type of pin. I wonder if it something with the adapter itself and the fact that it has to translate from USB a? glad you got it figured out but damn that's an interesting technical gremlin
