Interesting, yeah now that I look it up apparently Apple fucked their newest camera software with a new feature that you cant turn off. Maybe theyll fix it.

Yes as many brands have, but it's the post processing that Apple have down to an art it seems.

As someone who's used Xiaomi for years and years, had a Pixel too - the only thing that it doesn't beat western stuff with is cameras.

Unfortunately it is definitely true that iPhones take the nicest pictures - sure, sure, show me your best Samsung or Huawei images, or the highly regarded Pixel camera software - maybe you can capture the occasional landscape better - but pound for pound none of the phones I've ever had have taken nicer pictures than my partners outdated iPhone. Very annoying.

How would I connect to the same network from so far away? Is that impossible?

If I want to connect from far away, would a simple NordVPN do the trick?

Thanks. Yeah, didn't give the full specs - my bad. I'm gonna take the 7020 and maybe the G4. Another question though -

Am I right in thinking if I self host, storing a bunch of movies locally, I can then connect to my self hosted server from another location/computer and stream my personal library?

Thanks

Well sort of, but it's more that sometimes there's nuances to the tech that makes things better or worse, like people will say oh well Linux hosting works best on a post-(year) intel chip or whatever.

Youre right though, I should've added the full specs and asked questions based off that. I was just hastily posting from inside the cellar at work.

I have now googled regardless and I'm gonna take the Optiplex 7020

Was that libs? I really don't think it was. I think that talking about white women specifically started as an overly online politics thing - used by right wingers but also by chapoish online Leftists - or at least within the chapo circles there were those who found a home in using it, even if it didn't represent the majority of users.

I think it wasn't completely without validity - white men get a fair share of blaming (as they should), but that specificity missed out white women - a group it's fair to say has been very involved in liberal activist behaviours, 'girlboss' hustle culture, and a group that at the top is typified by Pelosi and her fangirls.

Then the rest of the internet took it and ran, and now I would be uncomfortable using it or giving it credit, because it's just become synonymous with general mysoginy. The dogwhistle is now audible to human ears.

in all fairness it's quite impressive, but the headline is just fucking hilarious... the people have been force-fed slop and spectacle for so long that they are now only capable of understanding things through the lens of Treats.

why don't we have a Baudrillard or simulation/simulacra emote

Keir has been so much worse than I could've imagined. Next time, someone stop me from voting labour.

 

Clearly an absolutely pedo

Payments for 'travel' appear to align with a September 2018 trip to the Bahamas, which was reportedly part of the Justice Department’s investigation into Gaetz.

Another “travel” transaction in early January 2019 appears to sync with Gaetz’s alleged arrangements for both women to fly to New York for sex and to accompany him to an appearance on Fox News, according to the women’s attorney Joel Leppard.

In 2021, Gaetz said during an interview that he believes “someone is trying to recategorize my generosity to ex-girlfriends as something more untoward.”

According to a lawyer representing the women, one of his clients testified that she witnessed Gaetz having sex with a girl when she was 17 years old. The attorney representing that woman, who is now in her 20s, has also said that she was a high school student at the time “and there were witnesses.”
