It’s possibly the fact that it specifies the enslavement of Africans too. I don’t know much about this, but would that sound like it’s minimising other countries experiences, or current slavery?

Edit: clarified a sentence

P.S. The wall to the left has an interesting texture, so that could be something to play with too :)

I just had a play with the Tune Image options in Snapseed on Android. I mainly adjusted the brightness, contrast, and saturation. Essentially though, just make a copy of your photo and play with it in a photo editor. Most of them have presets and filters for bringing out the sky :)

My laptop’s wireless mouse has used the same AAA battery for months, and it gets used regularly. It’s not daily, but it’s at least a few times a week for an hour, and usually a lot more.

My wired mouse on my PC gets used about the same amount, but the cable occasionally catches under the corner of the keyboard. It’s not helped by the fact that I move the keyboard around depending on what I’m doing. That’s also the reason I’m considering a wireless keyboard as well though.

It only works when you say it with that TV California surfer accent too though, like

Shyeah, duuude, it’s like tohtally tubular! 😎

If it helps, I misread the top line as ‘Thoughts aren’t faces’, and had no idea what was going on 😂

I did something similar with Inkscape a few years ago. I needed a quick logo for something, but wanted to be able to resize it easily. I knocked up something basic, then played with it when I had some free time. I’m still not particularly good, but I can do the basics :)

The seemingly constant multiple posting and duplicates. There are people on here who find a link and post it individually to multiple communities without comment and without cross posting. Three or four times is bad enough, but I blocked someone a while back who posted the same link to about 15 separate communities one after the other. Other people then posted the exact same link to some of the same communities.

People who post links without any sort of comment too. Lemmy is a link aggregator and discussion forum, but most people ignore the second part. It’s especially annoying when it’s got a vague title and links to a shitty site with a paywall so that you can’t even find out what it’s about.

I don’t know why some dipshit has downvoted you, but I’ve got a matte screen protector for my tablet. It doesn’t completely stop light from reflecting, but it doesn’t reflect enough detail for you to see your face.

I hope you get help with the dysmorphia and feel better about yourself soon 👍

No worries, hope you enjoy them 🙂

The camera isn’t always facing the front of the vehicle, and even when it is, glare on the windscreen can obscure the driver.

Your first point absolutely stands though

If you haven’t already, look up Mikey and his Uke 👍

Mikey is a guitarist in a band, and during Covid he started doing solo shows on YouTube, covering rock songs on the ukulele. He started getting other punk band members joining in, and they did full covers of songs, sometimes getting members of the original band to play too.

Their cover of Jaded / The Crowd by Operation Ivy is one of my favourite songs, and introduced me to Bad Cop / Bad Cop 🤘😁

What if your dog clears old growth forestry to raise a herd of cows? 🤔

Nah, I’ve got bad kidneys, and I manage not to piss in my own face 🤷🏼‍♂️

I used them on Windows to manage a handful of websites. I’d have a Websites folder with sub folders for each site, and a few portable apps in each one. I’d have Thunderbird and Firefox at least, and they’d keep everything separate.

For me at least, it made things a lot easier than trying to remember to log in to profiles etc individually :)

At least they’re summarising it, which implies that they’ve done some work. Lots of UK online ‘newspapers’ now have a brief story with a load of quoted tweets at the end. They’re absolute shit.

That’s part of my point. For most people, giving Google their data means things like their travel info. The majority of people don’t understand that tracking data is different, or what it means. When you tell them not to give their data to big corporations, they think you mean any data, and don’t know that they can get data that you might not want shared

The thing is though, that most people don’t know why that’s a problem, and privacy advocates seem to think that ‘you’ve got a door on your bathroom’ is a gotcha.

If someone is giving Google their home address and work address, and planning the route to get traffic data, they’re not going to be concerned when Google Maps suggests their work address as a destination through the week. Same for their shopping data. ‘Of course Amazon knows what I like, I do my shopping there!’

We need better ways to explain it to people who don’t understand it, and who are not interested in it or the tech behind it. We have a big problem on Lemmy where we tend to assume that everyone understands the same issues as us, just not as well.

Or, for my pet hate with FOSS, the instructions assume that you understand the underlying technology.

‘Hey, we’ve made this fantastic new program for Linux newbs, it’s so easy that even your grandma can use it! To install it, clone the repo and pipe the results of awk through sed using grep. You can add flags in the usual way!’

Oops! At least the ring was waterproof 🙈 😂
