I'm really glad you got that fire stick going again, despite all the trouble. I appreciate the effort you put in to writing all this, no bullshit. Death to America
Since I'm not brave enough to tell my theoretically-financially-and-physically-available-therapist that "We should use the various railgun projects to test the penetrative capacity of metal slugs on capitalists and its affects on mine and the planet's physical and emotional well-being" I have to, broadly, stick to hexbear to get these thoughts out of my mind.
Thank you for reading and I hope there was at least some level of enjoyment to be found in the writing's delivery if not its content.

There was immense enjoyment found in both, thank you 🥂
Have you considered becoming a poet? Because this spoke to me.
I had a fire stick once. It lasted less than a year before bricking. Couldn't get anywhere with returning it. And I didn't have your wizarding skills. So it was never used again and I vowed never to buy anything with the 'kindle fire' label on it ever again.
It's not much of a protest tbh, because the biggest Amazon shareholders include BlackRock and Vanguard, who own everything else as well. So if you go somewhere else to spite Amazon, it's only really Bezos who loses (assuming he doesn't have significant shares in BR and Vg) because BlackRock and Vanguard own the competitors, too, including Apple and Microsoft.
I could be wrong but I believe Lenin's editor removed a line from the end of his Imperialism for being too unrealistic: 'One day the bastards will ironically use the name for the party designed to bring them down as their own and it will be dramatically ironic poetic justice because we already know that pikmin and co will rise up'.
In the better world that I hope is one day built I'd love to spend more time on my writing, but until that work is furthered it has unfortunately been one of the things I've had to enjoy in small, sporadic sessions. As a potentially healthy outlet maybe I'll try to focus some of those sessions around joy rather than rage, but I find working through the thoughts frequently helps at least calm myself down and hopefully provide some sense of solidarity to others.
That said I'm really glad this connected with you on some level.
I feel that, comrade. I find keeping a journal helpful. You could alternate day by day. One day rage. One day joy. Could be fun and each entry doesn't have to be long. Maybe the kind of thing that would've got someone a book contract if they did it for a year as a blog when blogs were new.
Hey at least you can probably ship the USB device off in an envelope to another pirate for the cost of base postage afterwards
My phone battery started dying. Probably not coincidentally, my phone company started sending me texts saying, "Hey, we've got a great deal on a new phone! Why not just chuck the old one in the garbage?"
Had to take it to the Google Store, which has no phone number you can call, in the hopes that they can do the replacement

I feel ya. I didn't have a go that far, but I've got an old stick that unpaired from the remote and was amazed at the hoops I had to jump through. Good to know about USB adapter tho. Thanks!
I am sorry I provided you knowledge of the physical means to potentially degrade your mental well-being later. If you choose to block me I understand, but please make a backup copy of my emulation post for yourself before taking that probably-necessary measure.
I have a hacked Fire Stick with LineageOS which I enjoy. I wish I had useful suggestions for you, but I'm pretty sure there's no way to get it to boot something else without at least getting it into fastboot or recovery, and you don't have a way to do that.
EDIT: this script migh work if it's a gen 3 or Lite. Probably not, but you're no worse off. It's certainly doing something before the boots, though, so maybe you can get some insight from there?
I genuinely appreciate the effort, but this unfortunately would not have been helpful per this device's specific matrix of issues.
That said I hope Marx visits you in your dreams tonight riding a hexagonal bear and they both give you a big hug.
Can you tell me more about this? I've been meaning to get a fire stick or something along those lines to hack. Are there any apps you recommend on that OS for streaming?
Also obligatory
The hack I used to unlock the bootloader on my Gen 3 stick has since been patched, so I don't know what to recommend. There might still be working jailbreaks for the fire stick 4k? I'd recommend reading around this forum for a bit: https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/fire-tv-original-android-development.3083/
they couldn't put a little hole that you can stick a paperclip into? come on
I'm mad at OnePlus for making the back of my phone glass. They know that this shit will take an absolute beating throughout its lifespan, yet it's still glass and obviously the battery is not replaceable as well.
The back on my Motorola cracked a month after I bought my phone, so no hope of ever opening this glued-together piece of shit. The camera's focus is now broken and the volume buttons get stuck sometimes (the buttons would be trivial to fix if I got the phone open, not sure about the focus but I imagine there's a replacement part available from some online store in China), but I refuse to buy a new one as long as the battery still works.
The best part is that the glass back is so slippery you have to use a case just to hold the phone comfortably, so you don't even see the back of the phone. Make it make sense.
Point me toward these people and I will drop knowledge about how to install custom firmware and how/where to pirate books.
Every five years I have to buy a new
and plug in two more cables to keep my DVD player, my last VHS player, and the last of my CRT TV's talking to each other.what's the inside look like? maybe there's pads you can jump?
