  • I accidentally did.

    Back in jr high, I was sick as hell and helped myself to Benadryl.

    Thought I was taking them as directed, over a period of days. Nope. Was taking them every hour or two for part of the morning and into the afternoon. Luckily, not a lethal dose or anything.

    But I was seeing some shit!

    The walls were breathing, the floor had waves, and he-man came out of my TV on battlecat to talk to me. My GI Joes had a fight with COBRA, and I vaguely remember talking to Spider-Man as I was drifting off at one point.

    Tripping

    Balls


  • That’s my exact distro/de combo. Never had any issues with trackpad use that weren’t also there with the win10 that came on the thinkpad. Which was just that it’s prone to detecting even the lightest accidental taps and over reacting. Maybe it’s device specific?

    Edit: by device specific, I mean that it isn’t every touchpad w/Libreoffice’s issue, rather something that’s wonky with some range of hardware and not others





  • That was essentially what I was going to comment.

    You punch a skull like that, you’re breaking knuckles. It happens vs other humans as it is, no way do you punch a gorilla in the face and do even the same amount of damage your hand takes. You’re sure as hell not knocking it out.

    As entertainment, the idea is awesome, because I can imagine this relatively small guy squaring up against a silverback, all confident and executing the footwork perfectly, throwing a right hook just as hard as he can, and then there’s a spray of blood from his hand, followed by the gorilla turning him into steak tartare in a minute or less.

    Has dude never been to a zoo that has gorillas? Back in my prime, I would have been a heavyweight, and I feel like a damn twig next to a gorilla, no matter how much height I have on one. And I’ve never been that close to one. Seeing them twelve feet away was intimidating as hell.







  • Well, the other side of it is that it doesn’t matter how good your planning and logistics are if you only have rocks to throw when you get there

    Nobody with a lick of sense ever said that a civil war against an established and well equipped government was going to be fought on battlefields, lined up and infantry vs civilian infantry.

    And it takes more than guns, as the Iraqis and Afghanis showed. But calling guns useless in a revolution or civil war, much less as a resistance or insurgency is just stupid.




  • You know that bullshit gets tired.

    People acting like the armed left isn’t preparing.

    Like, motherfuckers, the loud 2a advocates were all right wing. The motherfuckers this fake motherfucker is whining about are the ones backing this shit.

    But, more important, why does every motherfucker shooting their mouth off about this think that you win a fucking civil war by just going out and shooting things? Like, does nobody get that attacks need useful intelligence, planning, logistics, transportation, and it can’t be out in the open, you gotta either fight it guerilla, or you’re just dead.

    People are fucking morons.
