Read my other comment. It leads back to the same thing.

Okay, so I attempted to access it again. Its currently in a weird state of partial access.

I can “log in” but as soon as I try to access anything, say, Gmail, I get that screen again.

This is what the settings page looks like:

So its not totally locked out, but its not functional either, I’m not even on a VPN.

Notice, 2FA is off.

Then I click Gmail and get this:

I tap “more ways to verify” and get this:

I tap the only option, and it circles back to the previous screen.

🤷‍♂️

MFA was never enabled.

I’m trying to find shows like the Expanse, which I initially passed over, but then upon the second watch, I understood what was happening. It’s one of my favorite shows. I would’ve been missing out if I didn’t give it anotber try. I’ve read over like hundreds of TV show plots and I’m so picky that if it looks boring, I skip it. I’m trying to see if there was something that I’ve judge too harshly like the famous phrase "don’t judge a book by its cover.

Or another way to phrase it is: “What show’s synopsis or first season seems boring/confusing at first, but is actually a good show overall?”

Bruh, I was testing some android features and wiped an android phone, then when I tried to log in again, they wanted a verification code from the previous device, the one I just wiped. Not even will a phone number satisfy them.

Its essentially locked out, unless I get a time machine to undo wiping the phone.

I mean, what happens if someone lose their phone and wants to log in to google to wipe their device? Like… how would you obtain the verification code on a phone a thief now has?

Its just even just privacy issues, Google is braindead when it come to their “security”.

Luckily, I wiped it in settings so FRP was off.

The answer is: We’re fucked.

People were warned of mass surveillance, and here we are, cameras everywhere, over the entire world. Everything is tracked. Same thing will happen to paper money and coins.

beggers,homeless ppl, panhandlers… are all doomed

In China, they have Wechat Wallet that people can give money to homeless people. Even homeless people have phones.

cashless societies are nothing but a nasty techbro dream.

It is nasty and dystopian, I agree. But its not really a fantasy anymore, its real, the dystopian future is on the horizon. Soon, it’d be too late to stop the dystopia.

At first, mass surveillance cameras is only in China, but then even supposed “democracies” like the UK have millions of cameras. Then China became mostly cashless, that will also eventually happen to western countries.

The dystopia is coming. You can’t stop it.

I assume it would be both jus soli and jus sanguinis

If you a born there, you were a Californian Citizen.

If you were there when they declare independendence, you were a Citizen (similar to the US Constitution, where everyone became citizen of the US if they were in tge 13 colonies at the moment it came into force, even if they just arrived from England).

If weren’t there when they ratify the New Californian Republic Constitution, and you weren’t born there, and you don’t have parent’s born there, then you’d probabaly not be a citizen.

They’ll probably also look at CA state tax record and might give citizenship if you’ve lived there for X amount of years preceeding the ratification of the Californian Constitution.

I think its also possible California doesn’t become an independent country, but form a different “United States” with other Blue states.

Do it. Become pope.

US Constitution, Article I, Section 9, Clause 8:

No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.

No more presidency for you, dumbass.

(but then again, the constitution doesn’t seem to matter any more so what do I know 🤷‍♂️)

Okay so. Say. There is 2 weeks without power, sudden and unannounced, unpredicted power outage. How will you get food and stuff?

So if people can’t get essential stuff, there would be fear, and with fear, riots are likely to happen. Doesn’t matter how “civilized” or “developed” a country is, everyone has their breaking point.

Fun fact: There’s technically a right to free speech in the constitution of the People’s Republic of China. But we all know how that goes.

Just like with any rule in any society; without enforcement, they are nothing but merely the words of people. ahem USA ahem

What even is the point of “representing your district” if they could just nominate a random person from across the country that never before stepped foot in that district?

There’s too much lies in the world, I kinda developed a sort of “solipcistic” view of the world.

If I never witnessed it, I categorize it as “potentially false”.

Of course, the entire news could be just fabricated. Nobody can tell for sure.

Anything beyond my immediate sorroundings could just be a stage. I could be in a truman show with everything I see being a deception, or in other terms “propaganda”.

I’m not saying that everything isn’t real, I just feel like that possibility should be entertained, to keep in mind as a potential possible explanation of what appears to be reality. Just as how a nation can lie to its people about reality, even the people closest to you, your parents, could also just be liars as well.

People never question if they are, in fact, the biological children of their parents, and just assume they are. That is another form of “propaganda”. People just accept their parent’s words as truth.

Propaganda is certainly everywhere. You cannot be sure what is real, other than the fact that “you” exist, in some form.

When I read the premise, I was instantly hooked, on the plot not characters, but eventually characters too. Never even turned it away. I was dealing with an existential crisis at the time and that why I loved it.

BORTLES 🍾🔥

Oh maybe I’ll try again. I was kinda turned off and stopped before the end of season one.

I mean, go ahead, arrest all democratic governors. More supporting evidence for asylum claims.

Maybe California would finally become a republic, and perhaps become the new “beacon of freedom” (well it was better than the last “beacon of freedom” anyways)

Invade? More like form a union. The Germany-Italy type.

So… my phone was out of battery, so I pulled out my power bank and connected the cable to my phone, but then I was feeling like I’m connecting two parts of an explosive device, I instinctively said, loudly:

“BOMB PLANTED”

Now the entire plane is staring at me like I’m some sort of criminal.
