you know how in tng you see the transporter effect linger more around the torso

you know how jpeg compression uses less cosine transforms where there is less data

what if transporter compression really fucks up your limbs where there's less "data" as in tissue complexity than where there's a bunch of organs

Classic Mac experts!

I have a 12" iBook G4 which suffered from a bad LCD panel. After looking at some schematics I realised the pinout was identical to a spare ThinkPad LCD I had. After a swap the new screen works, however the panel is not recognised by the system. The result is that native 1024x768 works but no other video modes, and backlight can't be adjusted (though it does dim at idle so I know the hardware supports it).

Is there a way to fake or force identification to improve support?

Defining womanhood by suffering is, in fact, bad feminism. Suffering is not a prerequisite to or mandatory experience of womanhood. If your arguement towards trans women is about how they have not suffered in the right ways, then you could stand to examine why your relationship to womanhood is defined this way.

something that's really funny to me as someone who isn't a fan of pokemon is when people go against all of the established lore to say 'actually i want some kind of monster that has human intelligence and can talk and be my friend' like buddy, what you want is digimon, i promise you're gonna have a better time if you just accept pokemon are by and large animals rather than people, go watch greymon fight a giant parrot, it's great

I want to try some hair spray. I wanna style my hair big like 80s glam rock. I know nothing about hair spray. I've been frying my hair with 40vol peroxide and blue powder bleach for 12 years. Recommendations?
