SeattleRain , to memes in But don't say it out loud

This Rhino must be talking to liberals.

nnjethro ,

Yes, and the Republicans who miss when their party wasn’t loony tunes.

SSJMarx ,

So, basically liberals.

EmpathicVagrant ,

It’s the same picture.

poorlytunedAstring ,

Oh yeah, that’s right, I keep forgetting this is fashion commy territory and they use liberal as a slur like Republicans do with no self-awareness

You’re on Lemmy, outside of explicitly anti-communist spaces like Lemmy.world you’re going to find more leftists.

Leftists referring to Liberals negatively is standard leftism, as Liberals support the Capitalist status quo and stand in the way of progress. The fact that Republicans are even further right than Liberals and use Lib as a slur for people less right wing does not mean leftists are without “self-awareness.”

You could read theory if you want to, plenty of people would be willing to share tips and pointers, then you wouldn’t have to rely on edgeless snark.

HowManyNimons ,

Bah. They’re Republicans in name only.

robocall , to lemmyshitpost in This works btw. Our counsellor just called me and asked to have a session with just me. I have no doubt we'll be discussing how crazy my wife is.

maybe you should schedule a session with a divorce lawyer

Mine used to do this with roaches. Not even kidding.

What a nightmare. I’d be in constant fear

Punctuate any sentence she says with “heh, women”

How did you even get the picture of the W fan? W doesn’t even provide screen capture, nor global hotkeys to make PrintScreen work.

AVincentInSpace ,

? Yes it does. None of the Wayland apps I’ve installed that take screenshots have had any issue doing so, and global hotkeys in KDE work just fine.

kogasa ,
@kogasa@programming.dev avatar

It doesn’t, it just delegates the responsibility to something else, namely xdg-desktop-portal and/or your compositor. The main issue with global hotkeys is that applications can’t usually set them, e.g. Discord push-to-talk, rather the compositor has to set them and the application needs to communicate with the compositor. This is fundamentally different from how it worked with X11 so naturally adoption is slow.

AVincentInSpace ,

Well yeah. Wayland is a protocol, not an application. There’s nothing it can do except delegate to one of the two ends of the connection.

kogasa ,
@kogasa@programming.dev avatar

These things are specifically not defined by the protocol. They could be. They’re not, by design.

AVincentInSpace ,

I agree that the deliberate design simplicity of vanilla Wayland is to its detriment, as does anyone who has ever touched Wayland from the developer side (compositor or client) plus most of the users. That said, there are extensions to the protocol which have been ratified by XDG and are supported by most compositors and applications that remedy most of those issues.

renzev ,

Isn’t that also more or less the case with X11? From what I understand, if you try to use bare Xorg without any extensions like Xfixes and Xdamage, it’s pretty miserable

Raiderkev , to memes in My Mother's real name is Karen. She is kind, loving, and sacrifices much for others.

This lady at the pool yesterday was being a dick to my kids yesterday about my kids being kids at a pool.

A few moments later, one of her friends came up to her later and said “hi Karen how’ve you been?” I got a laugh. She was a Karen that fit the description.

Kowowow , to lemmyshitpost in What does it mean??

Alex jones has a thing where he believes god tells him what time it is going to be before he sees the clock(waking him up in the middle of the night and telling him to check the microwave or whatever) and that proves he gets visions from god

beefbot ,

Yknow my brain sometimes alerts me to a coming alarm the minute before it goes off too but I don’t get some hardon for God about it. What a fuckface. (Also the Sandy hook thing… Same guy right?)

Kowowow ,

yup same guy and also more of an absolute mess than many people realize www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsqZZiWDHAQ

CluckN , to greentext in Chin up, small Kings!

The power vacuum would’ve been insane. I can’t imagine how quickly Republicans would try to steal his fanbase to get a presidential bid.

nova_ad_vitum ,

It would quickly degenerate into a contest to say the craziest shit possible. It might seem like we’re already there, but right now there’s an established level of crazy required to stay in the MAGA camp. If Trump has died the desperation to fill the void would crank it up to 11.

Etterra ,

Which of course means that, hypothetically, the closer to the actual election such an assassination would happen, the worst the infighting and the less likely that a single candidate would triumph successfully. To a point, like a couple of days at closest so that the news cycle has time to make a mess of things.

What a shot! To capture a bullet in a photo? Damn that’s lucky

Etterra ,

More likely it’s a single frame from a high speed shutter or high quality video. A lot of cameras I think can be set to do a rapid fire series of shots, you hear the clicks when you see them in movies or the news sometimes.

marduk ,

Okay here’s the chance for a math wiz to step up, guesstimate the shutter speed, calculate the length of the bullet in the frame, and determine what velocity the projectile was going after impact. Why? I don’t know. Science? Perhaps.

Leate_Wonceslace ,
@Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Mathematician here. Looks like it’s going about as fast as a bullet.

derpgon ,

Or just use plain old common sense, and realize that 5.56 usually goes about 3000 fps (or 900 m/s).

jaykay ,
@jaykay@lemmy.zip avatar

Ugh, I know it’s gonna be a waste of time but I wanna do it lol

jaykay ,
@jaykay@lemmy.zip avatar

I know, I’m a sports photographer myself. The photographers probably had more or less 12fps set in the camera, more would probably be overkill for a journalist portrait basically.

Even so, you can miss something like this if you start taking photos too late or too early. I had this situation many times when a footballer goes for a header and I get a photos of the ball coming towards him and going away from him, but not the moment he touches the ball. 12fps means a photo every 83ms and you can still miss it. Not to mention a bullet going a bit faster than a ball. Everything happens faster than we realise.

Not to mention shutter speed, how fast the shutter goes down, exposing the sensor. Too fast and you won’t get that streak, too slow and you’ll entirely miss it.

Corkyskog ,

The photographer talked on NPR about it. It was one of 40 photos he took during that time frame.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

IDK, I doubt it’s actually a bullet, the angle looks all wrong.

bad_alloc , to lemmyshitpost in I'm just gonna stick to slotted, thanks

Reject threaded fasteners, return to nail and rivet.

Wasn’t it the glass from the shattering teleprompter that hit him?

whostosay ,

There’s no way this dumbfuck uses a teleprompter. Not only that, why would it be behind him? The teleprompter thing is out of the question.

Olhonestjim ,

He needs glasses to see, but considers them a symbol of weakness. Regardless, he’s semi-literate at best. Remember the kids in school who could only read a single word at a time? My money is on that. I’d love to see him read out loud from a random book.

Palmetto bugs have shortened my lifespan.

AlligatorBlizzard ,

Everything in the South shortens someone’s lifespan. Palmetto bugs aren’t the only reason I moved out of Florida, but they’re definitely on the list somewhere.

Imgonnatrythis ,

Moving out of FL sounds like one of those things you’ll look back on someday and not regret at all.

Skullgrid ,

Like moving out of any post-industrial place that has become an absolute shithole.

Yeah, I’m looking at you, Middlesbrough.

Behind him on the ground, rather than in the sky, I imagine.
