  • Cordry rocks and Ransom's head

  • It looks fine, I just feel like I am missing a layer of the joke

  • Is there some joke regarding how this is animated?

  • Oh, is that where the name Brave came from?

  • Ferengi episodes in Enterprise:

  • Theft Detection Lock uses AI, your device’s motion sensors, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth to detect if someone unexpectedly takes your device and runs away. If Theft Detection Lock detects your device is taken from you, it automatically locks your device's screen to protect its content. For example, if someone grabs the phone out of your hand and they run, bike, or drive away, the Theft Detection Lock may activate.

    I presume it waits for an abrupt spike in the accelerometer followed by going out of range of nearby Wi-Fi networks and Bluetooth connections. I am curious how well it works, and how often false positives occur.

    I am also disappointed that it seems GrapheneOS does not offer a similar feature.

  • in qBittorrent: Tools > Options > Advanced > Network Interface. That dropdown box should list things like your Wi-Fi connection, Ethernet connection, etc., including an option that sounds like your VPN provider. If you run into troubles, do an Internet search for "qbittorrent network interface" for various articles and guides.

  • They did announce three major products today.

  • But you need propane or some other clean gas, candles and butane have nasty particulates and tar inside (the bottom literally gets black) that you dont want to inhale ;)

    My dad says butane is a bastard gas

  • I have found that I always use proper punctuation in informal communication except for a period at the end of a message. If the last sentence is a question or exclamation, I'll use a question mark or exclamation point. But if it technically requires a period: usually nothing.

    Then again, I am in my forties or fifties

  • I assume that means you use a filter or something literally called "brightness". If your app offers an option called "exposure", try that instead. I tend to get more desirable results using that for brightening photos.

    Unlike brightness, exposure is highly biased towards the highlights in the picture. In layman language, it will act as if increasing the amount of light in the picture, without much affecting the darker areas in the picture.

  • Regarding the title, what types of filters, effects, etc. do you use to brighten these dark TV/movie screenshots?

  • Bingo!

  • "whole quarter"

    What is the word for idioms/phrases that are technically contradictory to themselves? Like "original copy"
