In the 90’s and 00’s there was a photographic movement to take photographs with more depth using more hand and arm movement to make more dynamic images. Some say it came from comic book artists and others say it started as everyone doing the double thumb and index finger as a ergatz frame gide of what you were about to film, but this time you were the subject.

Anyways it got popular so people with cheap cameras and phone cameras started propping them up and trying to do some of it and most of the time they didn’t have enough time to get their hands right. So they started to take all these pictures of themselves with weird hands and people started doing it on purpose, and then photographers picked up on the trend.

Yeah, it is spelled right out in the book for crying out loud.

There is no software that does theming for GRUB that doesn’t break it badly and was stopped mid development and GRUB 2.0 takes deep knowledge of how it works to theme it without breaking it.

Hell the little bit of theming they added to Ventoy has them slowing GRUB updates to make sure that it is tested and tested again before they roll it out and break everyone’s install without knowing it.

I plan on doing it but I really don’t have time for it right now or any time in the future.

Oh, I can post anywhere. I’m in my 50’s, and I know that alt clients can get around it, but that doesn’t change the fact that the service itself chose to “Papers Please” RLID its users when there wasn’t even political pressure to do it at the time in most of the places it operates. If it had changed to be trans and islamiaphobes then I am glad to be off there.

There is a considerable number of users that stopped using Bluesky because of the Age Verification. I think that is playing a significant issue, along with corporate accounts being few and far between compared to Twitter. I really liked how it was set up vs my Mastodon and Twitter account I keep for contests and giveaways. It is a shame they had to go fascist like that.

Its not “Search and Siezure” it is “Searches” and “Siezures”. It violates the “Searches” part and the only way to work around is a warrant. A “search” is not only to search a person’s house, but to subject a person to being followed and tracked day in and out needs a Judicial Warrant in most circumstances because you are violating the subjects right to privacy.

In the case of Flock they could set up cameras and have trained people watch them, and that is iffy at that, but once it is autommatically stored and cataloged everything everyone does and where they go, and can be used to unwind everything a person does quite litterally like Big Brother, and then you can put that in a data base where the police can litterally do fishing expeditions after the fact to make a case, or the AI can just spit out a name that got a well known car reviewer seconds away from getting his life ended by a police officer because it mixed his plate with annother, that is an entirely different kettle of fish.

I is like the famous saying of the head of the Polish Secret Police “You show me the man and I will show you the crime”. It is because of this you have a right to not talk to the police and legally speaking any little thing you say or respond to “…can and will be used against you in a court of law.”. If you try hard enough you can come up with multiple crimes for anyone.

They are throwing Bill C-22, (L)Awful Access and C-34 at the same time to confuse low information voters.

Now here’s a camera I want full Slo-Mo 4K footage of the Benny’s hitting the floor after you slap them out of JP.

No, because Vaccines don’t kill Covid. Vaccines teach your immune system to respond better and on the whole have better outcomes. If vaccines killed Covid, then they would give a shot to everyone with Long Covid and cure them.
