i thought my laptop was on its last leg because it was running at six billion degrees and using 100% disk space at all times and then i turned off shadows and some other windows effects and it was immediately cured. i just did the same to my roommate's computer and its performance issues were also immediately cured. okay. i guess.

so i guess if you have creaky freezy windows 10/11 try searching "advanced system settings", go to performance settings, and uncheck "show shadows under windows" and anything else you don't want. hope that helps someone else.

[shithowdy]

hey this is apparently helping a lot of people! adding that on top of this you can also go to settings > personalization > colors and turn off transparency to also boost performance. this wasn't the Big Fix for me but might as well do that too if you're trying to optimize.

i don't think most people realize how bad things in rafah have truly gotten. we all already know israel has desecrated its own vow that rafah would be the "safe zone" in every way imaginable, but i can't describe how gut-wrenching it is to read about 12 iof soldiers infiltrating the rafah crossing under the guise of an aid truck just a day or so ago. again--they entered rafah with the pretense that they would be supplying starved, displaced people food

this is just now breaking, but i can't fathom how many palestinians got lured out w the promise of feeding their families--only to massacred then and there, never to be heard from again. likely their bodies won't ever be returned to the families. how can anyone read this and not be absolutely horrified

[stuckinapril]

i am constantly thinking about maryam and her family whenever i read up on the news in rafah, so guys please please continue donating maryam's fundraiser. maryam and her toddler children are living in the heart of rafah; in the heart of the destruction and uncertainty and starvation. there is quite literally nowhere else for them to go, unless they raise the necessary funds to meet egypt's exorbitant prices and evacuate. i cannot stress enough how dire and time sensitive this campaign is. maryam's fundraiser has been getting little to no traction, and she truly could use all the help she could get

[finalgirlabigailhobbs]

please please help Maryam. iof killed her father and her brother. they shot her husband and so every single day now she needs to clean his wounds to avoid it from getting infected AND also walk for miles into warzones to get internet connection + food + water AND also care for her brother's orphaned children

i don't know how else to phrase this anymore. it's been a full month of fundraising and Maryam has been shadowbanned without explanation twice. she is so tired and emotionally fraught. please help this young mother and her surviving loved ones live and evacuate.

my wish is that we can help the family get to at least 10k in the next week. the situation in Rafah is only going to escalate further. Maryam will keep trying to evacuate her family via medical exemption but we will need your help to make it happen via raising funds

the Columbia University arrests are worse than they seem. They're arresting protesting students for trespassing. It goes without saying students cannot meaningfully "trespass" in the common areas of a university they attend. So Columbia University has suspended all student protestors from their institution, in the process revoking their access to housing, their belonging, and most crucially damaging their academic futures. We are witnessing full scale silencing and removal of anyone of conscience from the next generation of academia.

[duncebento]

beyond that the columbia common is literally an open space during the day; the gates are open and it's possible to pass through it like you'd pass through a regular block. even after my student ID expired i was still able to walk through the commons bc ID is not requested until you enter an actual building. it's quite common to see parents, toddlers, and such who are clearly not enrolled just hanging out. so not only were the students not trespassing at a SCHOOL THEY PAY FOR, there was also not a precedent for non-students to be disallowed from the grass and walkways.

within the past hour the NYPD raided Colombia university where no press is currently being allowed btw

FIVE MINUTES AGO

sjp.columbia: Absolutely horrifying videos coming from the ground. NYPD assaulting students and pushing students down stairs leaving one unconscious. Columbia has unleashed police brutality on their own students for peacefully protesting. Shame.

From an email I just got a couple hours ago. They're gonna remove news related tags because Palestine is consistently in the top 20.

We like to joke about the aging userbase on here but I'm reminded by the notes that many of you are young, and perhaps naive, or simply unfamiliar with the vagaries of corporate bullshit.

When a corporate entity publicly states that a change is being considered, it has already been decided. The only thing left is to make a public statement, to find out what kind of reaction they can expect.

Staff wants to make this change, otherwise we would have never heard about it

[devious-buffoon]

Shit man, this wizard war is fucked. I just saw a guy clap his hands together and say "the ten hells" or some similar shit, and every one around him turned inside out, had their tibia explode and then disappeared. The camera didn't even go onto him, that's how common shit like this is. My ass is casting frostbite and level 2 poison. I think I just heard "power word:scrunch" two groups over. I gotta get the fuck outta here.

People who have never taken public transit before seem to be under the impression that everyone on a bus is ready to stab you meanwhile I have never had that problem and I get to read while I’m stuck in traffic and they don’t.

Also I don’t get stuck in traffic much anyways because the drivers keep going on the freeway even though it gets clogged up with traffic and it’s literally faster to drive on the surface streets where the busses go but whatever I don’t need to pay for a gym membership because I walk to the bus and meanwhile what are you spending your money on? Oil changes so you can keep getting stuck in traffic?

[what-even-is-thiss]

Am I spreading anti-car propaganda? Yes I am and yes I will forever because I don’t need to think about parking. I don’t have to pay for parking. I can just show up at a place and then leave without having to think about any of that. You wish you had it that good. I haven’t set foot in a parking garage in months.

i'm so glad goncharov happened when it did, right before prolific public use of AI. that was pure honest gaslighting straight from the heart. real human whimsicality and trickery thru blood sweat and tears. we were a family. and we all gonched, together. you cant replicate that with any machine.

VERY IMPORTANT a dam in the Netherlands, the weerdsluis lock, is directly on a migratory path for spawning fish. They have a worker stationed there to open the door for the fish, but they can take a while to open it. So to keep the fish from getting preyed on by birds they installed a doorbell. Only, the fish don't have hands to ring the doorbell. If you go to their website, they have a LIVE CAMERA AND A DOORBELL that YOU RING FOR THE FISH when they're waiting, and then the dam worker opens the door for them! I can't express how obsessed I am with this. look at this shit. oh my god.

Please check on the fish doorbell once in a while :)
