AW3423DWb. Maybe the cord was messed up. I just set it up in a different place so I’ll wait and see if that issue persists. Firmware update sounds like a good idea.

I’m playing more on the LCD lately anyways. It’s 1080, but it’s a smooth 520hz

I would be ok with it if it asked before starting like my LG. But sometimes I will grab a drink in the middle of gaming and windows will sleep the monitor, and I come back to a monitor that won’t turn on or do anything. No lights nothing. The only way to use it again is unplug it for 30 seconds.

Before I broke the screen I think my iPhone X was 4 years old and i recall the home bar and notification bar had a little ghosting. Other than that I haven’t had burn in with my oled tv or monitor, but I let them auto clean and all that.

My only warning is don’t get an Alienware oled, it auto cleans on a completely random schedule and won’t power on half the time I go to use it

As an American, the churches here are pooling resources to buy politicians and hospitals in low income areas to enforce their views on abortion and gender healthcare. The church is a business and religion is the advertisement that keeps that evil funded.

I’ve never seen the amount of pro religion comments as I’ve seen in this thread. And they’re all so… coughGPTcough ….verbose.

It’s probably Stable diffusion. I use comfyui since you can watch the sausage get made but there’s also other UIs like automatic1111. Originally for a qr pattern beautifier, there is a controlnet that takes a two tone black and white “guide” image. but you can guide it to follow any image you feed it. Such as a meme edited to be black and white, or text like “GAY SEX.”

See my other comment. I think that wall of doubt is consciously or subconsciously knowing that if they agree with you, have a realization, and their thinking changes, they will stick out and face getting that same cold shoulder from their friends, family, and community forever. Peer pressure is very real, especially in rural places where there aren’t too many peers to choose from.

I grew up around and still live with these people. Let me tell ya how they think: They don’t. They don’t even really know what a liberal is.

To them a liberal is something other than them. And the ingroup they’ve spent their whole lives trying to fit into says that’s bad, so they are against liberals and everything they do and say and want. But so is everyone they know, so they’ll oppose liberals even louder and more extreme, in a bid to get noticed by their peers at work, church, family, and party.

And of course they’re right, liberals are shit. But they don’t know why, because again they Do. Not. Know. What. A. Liberal. Is.

And if they ever figure it out and outgrow the childish mentality of opposing without understanding, they will be outcast from their friends, family, and community. And that is the fear that keeps them lockstep in line, voting for the apocalypse.

Right there with you. I use —reddit— lemmy on my phone on the go. I want a button in a consistent place that opens it quickly.

I open my browser, oops I was looking at another tab I’ll just go through my tabs to find the specific website I’m looking for this time. At that point the browser is just its own app picker inside of another app picker. I have even added links to my Home Screen as well, but I’ve run into many issues with opening loads of dupes and clogging up my tabs. Maybe browser works in a perfect world (or even just a world where I save links in pocket or something instead of tabs idk) but it kind of just seems like an app browser with extra steps. Browser elitists do themselves no favors acting high and mighty about literally just not having an app? About saving 70MB like it’s 1999? Idk it’s a dumb argument. Everybody’s solution works for them.

In America at least, wealth mobility has been terrible historically. ie. If you were born poor you’re more likely to die poor. Born rich and you’re not likely to lose it. Despite all the data against it, poor people are still sold the American dream. This is a contradiction.

Leftists would see the poor as powerless against a system and society that set them up to fail, and aim to change the aspects of society that forces them to be poor, while others profited and thrived off of their labor.

Conservatives would (if you could read their minds at least, they know their thoughts are awful enough to keep to themselves) see the poor as powerless in the sense that they couldn’t help themselves and are therefore somehow not worthy of a dignified life.

And the fence sitters will allow half assed bandaids like welfare, Medicaid, and food stamps. And when the conservatives say they need to cut taxes for the rich, centerists will happily axe the bandaids, because they didn’t solve the core problems forcing people to be poor (and they were never designed to.)
