someone on the Motorola forums was having the same problem with the camera I've been having, but I just have to share the image they posted to demonstrate the issue.
it's the funniest shit I've ever seen in my life dude

The photo is of an elderly woman in gray clothes that has been so bizarrely processed that it looks both totally over and desaturated

I swear, those ASPCA commercials airing as kid gave me learned helplessness.

Hypertrophy exercises for those areas are what got suggested for me when I asked this question

Legitimately hilarious that nothing ever happens with these guys so it just keeps happening. If theres a proper civil war, its gonna have some of the most slap-stick moments imaginable

i wrote about the loss of randomness from music-listening and TV-watching

That was the promise of randomness: the TV and radio would not always grab you. Sometimes, they would free you, by virtue of their inability to cater to all tastes at all times. It was just as easy twenty years ago to lose time to a zoned out TV marathon, but few people did so every day of the week. If the randomness favored your taste one day, it would lose you the next. Sooner or later, you'd get bored in a way that demanded activity. You'd go live your life away from the entertainment, because it couldn't always be entertaining to you specifically. I think that's good! These forms of passive entertainment should lose our interest once in awhile. It shouldn't be possible to pamper your most deeply entrenched tastes twenty-four hours a day.

I never would've found cheers and Sanford & Son through streaming services. TV was great for finding old gems

"Man, if only there was a computer that could house consciousness" brain

"But what about upkeep-" I guarantee you that the procedures required to keep a brain from deteriorating are less than the mega-computer your talking about.

"What if theres no way to stop the brain aging" computers age faster

It's wild to me that mind uploading is the techy immortality thing that took off when brain-in-a-jar would be infinitely easier and actually preserve stream of consciousness

It feels like the last few days, we've had a concentrated burst of evil that would've been disbursed over decades if he had been alive.

They're so painfully entitled to our sorrow, its pathetic.

Funny how that didn't happen with right calling the dems a bunch of lunatic communists for the last 10 years.
