I think everyone else is drawing the wrong conclusions here. Obviously your body is having a severe reaction to people dressed in this specific way, and you have been fortunate that all adidas tracksuits come with a free first aid course.

Let me make this loud and clear: Andrew Tate is a sex trafficking rapist that should not be allowed to live in a civil society

I’m very aware, I’ve spent quite a bit of time over the years removing them from photography projects.
For vignette, it accomplishes a lot of the same thing in games as it does in photography in general: it is a subtle focus shifter. For some games - like some photos - I enjoy that little bit of extra emphasis on the center of the screen.
For chromatic abberation, i generally avoid it in photography, but it can be used for effect. I feel like that’s also true to a point in games. Over the top CA feels like trying to watch something without 3d glasses. A little bit on the fringes can give a smidge of retro (and, oddly, futuristic) style for effectively no compute cost. It’s definitely overused though, and I tend to turn it off more often than not.

I’m okay with a little chromatic aberration and vignette. Camera bob can go straight to hell.

Man, you’re really butthurt about people telling you to fuck off for asking where youre allowed to be a misogynist on Lemmy. That’s two different posts bitching about it.

Fixed it for you

Go hang out on one of the douchebag libertarian or MAGA instances. Or do like the other dude said and make your own where you can sit around and blame minorities for your problems to your heart’s content.

Not a problem, I have zero interest in dealing with beehaw again if your mods are allowed to instigate fights, then hide behind the rules after their feelings get hurt.
If you’re not going to let people talk shit, fine. But if your own mods are going to get their comments removed too, maybe they shouldn’t be mods. This is the exact type of behavior people hate about reddit.
- Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy 4 days ago:
I don’t respect your authority as a mod any more than I respect your authority as an editor. Just because you have a title doesn’t mean you’re right or just.

What rule did I break that he did not also break? “Hostility can only come from beehaw users, not outsiders?”

Fuck off, you’re the one that decided to be a douchebag and make a snarky condescending comment. I’m not an asshole for calling you out on it. Get a life and stop playing internet police.

Lmao okay buddy. Didn’t realize I was talking to fucking robo cop.

Okay? I’ve been in IT for the better part of two decades. You’re not really seeming to grasp pattern recognition.

My animosity comes from ignoring every other point in my comment(s). I’m not saying no one ever used em-dashes before LLMs. You’re being intentionally obtuse.
- Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy 4 days ago:
It’s a literary tool that is so pervasive in LLM output and so unused in most writing that it’s become a common indicator that LLMs may be involved. Considering the disjointed flow from subject to subject and shittyness of the article in general, I think that the odds are in my favor.
Feel free to continue shouting from your high horse though.

Noticing some em dashes in there, so at least some of this is AI.
The parts about corporate infrastructure sound like a c suite dipshit trying to sound like they know what they’re talking about.
“Our networks run slower because we have to be compatible with older devices!”
No, Judith, your IT department just keeps 2.4ghz wifi available for the old devices while also running 5ghz. Those devices stay slow, but it doesn’t impact anyone else.
“Back in 2010, 100Mb internet was the fastest! No one could imagine gigabit becoming widely available! Stuff needs to be upgraded to handle it!” Judy, tons of businesses were running gigabit in 2010, and common network gear has had gigabit ports for years. You have no idea what you’re talking about.
- Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy 4 days ago:
Oh no, we’re being so selfish. Why not buy a 10% performance upgrade every two years for $1000 while wages stagnate? Oh, and carriers don’t subsidize the cost at all anymore. They call it “free” then lock you into their most expensive plan so you spend thousands more on the plan than if you could have afforded to just buy the phone outright.
Fuck this out of touch reporting.
- Comment on British plugs 5 days ago:
I also have big hands, but some plug designs are so low profile that if they are plugged into a particularly tight receptacle, you can’t get good leverage to remove them. You get the plug partially out, then try to reposition your grip to pull it the rest of the way or you grab it too far forward and your fingers slip while squeezing, and BAM, zapped.
Power strips are the biggest culprit for this one, since your fingers can end up on the seam between cord and strip and more easily slip under when unplugging.
- Comment on British plugs 5 days ago:
I am aware, but GFCI is the common term in the US, especially for outlets. RCD is used most other places. I was trying to keep the terminology consistent to what would be expected regionally.
- Comment on British plugs 5 days ago:
One feature of UK plugs I really like is the built in warding of the live/neutral slots. The ground prong is longer to allow for the mechanism to unlock the hot slot when inserted. It’s essentially a built in childproofing.
- Comment on British plugs 5 days ago:
:) only the strong survive.
An actual answer: you very quickly learn to pull in a way that prevents your fingers from slipping onto the prongs, or you just pull the cord to remove things from outlets. That creates its own long term problems, but most people don’t really give a shit because the US is built off cheap plastic shit that you simply replace when it breaks.
That being said, I’ve received like 5 or 6 good hits of the 110v wake up due to the eccentricities of the US plug. It hurts like a bitch, but probably won’t kill you if you don’t have a pace maker and aren’t grabbing something grounded with the other hand.
We also only use GFCI in the bathroom and kitchen and don’t use RCD breakers. It’s honestly astonishing that the US electrical system doesn’t kill more people.
