You used a present tense and not past tense she referring to your friend, so there's at least one thing you need to do.

I like the concept of a sun shade/privacy shield for your tablet or smartphone but having a separate contraption is a bit unnecessary. They could have gone with a protective case with wake-on-opening cover and build the sunshades INTO the cover. All you'd have to do is add some flip-out wings on the inside and you're set.

Yeah, there are dozens of free utilities that do this already that you can burn onto a CD or USB, including the bootloader. This guy is basically charging for a key-shaped USB drive.

It's almost like the Thief games set up an interesting world, and steampunk has more to give than cogs, and bad costumes. Do you hate sci-fi too because trekkies exist, or something?

Or maybe he was just pointing out how this is a dumb shock project that just makes whatever actual satanist groups exist (I loving assume?) look dumb by proxy so a bunch of internet atheists can smuggo with eachother about when they totally owned those Xtians by spending thousands of dollars to put a Cannibal Corpse stage design reject up.

There aren't actual satanist groups, they're all for trolling religious people.

The best objection to the statue is actually that it isn't freedom of religion because satanism isn't actually a religion.
