I'm actually considering dropping my hbo subscription. I barely use it and barring the Def Comedy Jam, which I have on dvd, nothing really interests me. Netflix is really picking up the slack.

What's insecure?

Color me shocked, shocked! I tell ya that Notch is a pizzagater closet alt right. I thought he reached an existential crisis after selling Minecraft and maybe I thought wrong.

What's new in y'alls world? I am drowning in Salesforce as we speak but my multitasking game is on point. BCT needs officially recommended smartphones. Who's making the list?

Insecure is a rather dope Black in L.A show on HBO. It's in its second season now and gaining in popularity.

you do realise that there are ethical comparison guides out there? And watchdogs that try to make sure all the shit comes to light? When Amnesty reported that Sony, Apple, Samsung, Apple(yes twice because they've been caught twice) had children working on their phones I said no thanks.
Then Sony got better(didn't get caught?) I went back to them and Samsung and Apple still fucked around with companies that killed of their workers no matter what age I never looked back. Same reason why I don't fuck with H&M for example.

Basically everyone who used Chinese labour did that. Which is fact basically everything but matter of fact is that iPhone is so damn popular so they really went through the meat grinder when it came to those orders.

Nope. Apple are by far the worst, due to how much of a profit they want to make on everything and that is a fact. I watched a doc on it and it was so fucked up I skipped on Apple my whole life.

Yeah kinda the same. I think it was 2010 when Sony started donating back both money and not only "products" that I went back to them.
Unfortunately Google is being asses and refuse to allow Anything above Android 6 on Fairphone and that the FP2 still kinda sucks else I would have gone with them.

Fuck'n apple.

Also Xcom Mario looks cool. I'd be in ultra hype if there were no rabbids, but more Mario party members.

Good t'see it's reviewing well too.
