Here's a controversial one: Target shooting.

It used to be a skill you honed, going to the range to become better every time. Participate in competitions, meet people. It was a great hobby.

And then the idiots who unironically wear Punisher logos ruined it.

I saw a clear separation between me and the idiot part of the demographic who enjoys the show at the Pickle Rick episode.

It wasn't funny. It wasn't even a good story or episode. It was just the writers deciding to come up with the most blatantly random thing for the sole sake of randomness.

  • The tax is for everyone not just the US.
  • Technology companies were making billions off of the backs of Canadians by harvesting their data and selling them ads without giving anything back, which was pure exploitation and it is an embarrassment that this tax didn't exist earlier.
  • Many countries had implemented a similar tax already
  • ~~The tax is just 3%, which is pitiful~~
  • That tax had been announced a year ago.
  • That "400% tariff" that he claims Canada charges is pure BS. Those tariffs are after quota and the quotas are never reached. Therefore the US never paid those tariffs. Those quotas exist to prevent the US from destroying Canadian industries one by one with targeted dumping and I wouldn't put it past Trump to do that should Canada ever remove those quotas.

TACO just wanted to pick another fight with his country's best trading partner and found an excuse to do so.

I'm glad we're moving away from trading with the US. They were screwing Canada over at every chance they had.

He fired the whole bullet. That's 30 percent more bullet per bullet!

This is standard procedure for him. Something gives him an idea, he assumes that it is pure genius and he immediately runs with it without even thinking it through or at least educating himself on the subject first to see if it is actually a good idea or not.

This is him just moments before he famously suggested on a national press conference that shining UV light or injecting disinfectant into people's bodies could be a treatment to COVID:

What if Trump was really into this kind of stuff and everything he has been doing is a secret genius plan to make sure people will pee on his grave for decades, if not centuries to come?

That reminds me of back when I was in high school. The IT guy was a big gamer and had installed RainbowSix on all the machines in the computer lab so we could play against each other during lunch time including himself.

One stuck up, self-righteous teacher heard about the game and tried to have the IT guy delete it from all the computers because they were "violent games that had no business being in school". He refused and the school's administration seemed to have his back on it. So during a computer class she instructed the entire class to delete the game folder from their computer and empty the recycle bin and then leave the file explorer open so she could walk around and see that it has been done.

While everyone else were deleting theirs I copied the game folder on my machine elsewhere, then deleted the original to show her that it wasn't there anymore. After she was gone I moved the folder back where it belonged and shared it on the network so everyone else could copy it back into their computer. The following lunch break it took less than 5 minutes to get the game back on everyone's computer and we kept playing like nothing happened. Get fucked, hag.

They removed the star system a long time ago. They removed the down votes again a few years back.

They want their algorithm to be the only thing that decides whether you watch a video or not.

No shit. Now do Amazon, apple, meta, Microsoft, Disney and all the food conglomerates. Then it will have been a good start.

He can't stop talking about Biden even though he's not his opponent anymore.

[-] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 245 points 1 year ago

Make it so felons cannot run for president and resign immediately after.

If he did that Biden would be remembered as one of the greatest presidents ever.

Bobbing their heads at every step. How ridiculous must have that looked if it was the case.

Actually strong people don't need to belittle others around them to feel stronger.

I am running multiple screens from different brands. Because they are not the same, they must be set to different brightness values to look the same.

The problem is that whenever I boot up, the Plasma brightness setting is changed, or Night Light kicks in, Plasma sets all my screens to the same value. This results in one screen being too bright and the other too dark. Every time this happens I must change the value back manually in my screen's built-in menu, which is annoying.

In the Gamma settings panel there appears to be an upcoming feature where different screens can be set to different values but it is grayed out for the moment (running Plasma 6.0.4 on Tumbleweed).

How do I disable this feature while I'm waiting for the ability to set individual brightness values to individual screens to come around?
