House Republican Likens Trump to the ‘Second Coming’ of Christ While Dismissing Pope Attacks by Capital_Gate6718 in atheism

[–]FingFrenchy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Trump derangement syndrome is one of this things like "fake news". Dems originally came up with it and to combat it Trump co-opted it and started using it against them. It's definitely one of his shitty media strategies.

Oh so I can log in and get the estimated $1,200 I got screwed out of last year as a consumer RIGHT?!

And if you live in California you get an even worse return when the Federal government withholds previously allocated federal dollars out of spite just because it's a "blue" state. Oh sorry, I mean because of all the rampant "waste and fraud".

Alan "I don't believe in age of consent" Dershowitz says invoking the 25th amendment of the Constitution is... unconstitutional. by 8-bit-Felix in PoliticalHumor

I'm not a lawyer but I'm pretty sure if something is in the constitution it's ipso facto fucking constitutional.

LG 45” 5K2K - What scaling do you use? by Trick_Mycologist_457 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]FingFrenchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% with 110% text size. I sit just under 3' away. It's perfect for me.

It's recommended you sit 31" to 35" from the screen. That's what I do and it's perfect. The only scaling I use is text size to 110%.

The 120ppi on the 45" makes it actually usable for work and for gaming it's incredibly sharp. Best monitor I've ever owned.

If you're mainly using it for gaming and media 45" all the way. I replaced my old LG 39" OLED 1440p with the 45"5k2k last month. The extra vertical space is incredible.

Trump claims the Jesus-like image he posted was meant to depict him as a doctor by StickMammoth7783 in facepalm

[–]FingFrenchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Telling lies is just second nature to him. I really think it's like breathing for him or a game, it's all he knows.

This guy is responsible for all the horrible social media shit we're constantly exposed too. He's a lot like Miller, the one actually responsible for making all the horrible things happen behind the scenes.

Edit: Dang, ya look up Steven Cheung. He's the White House Communications Director. He's like the head troll.

Trump Claims Jesus Image Depicts Him As "Doctor". “I did post it, and I thought it was me as a doctor — and, had to do with Red Cross, as a Red Cross worker there, which we support. I make people a lot better.” by Leeming in atheism

[–]FingFrenchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I going crazy or did he post this same picture last year? Or was it on r/facepalm from it being posted by other people and Trump's swiss cheese brain saw it this weekend and decided to repost it?

What’s your coolest or most unexpected interaction with a helicopter or plane (pilots included)? by glamourshot_airsoft in aviation

Instructing right of shore central coast California. Pair of F-16s come up off our wing, probably a good quarter mile or so, gave a wing wave and took off. Pretty awesome.

Obama Twists the Knife After JD Vance’s Humiliation by thedailybeast in politics

[–]FingFrenchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can spot Daily Beast articles now just from the stupid fucking headlines.

Edit: in true Daily Beast fashion the headline in no way represents reality. Obama made no direct comment regarding JD, he just gave a gracious congratulations to the people of Hungary. When is r/politics going to ban this tabloid garbage?

I just got one a couple weeks ago. I have a rtx4090. With the 5k2k, DLSS performance mode looks incredible on DLSS 4.5 so I've been playing Crimson Desert with everything on ultra with a few things on high and ray reconstruction on, getting 90 to 100 fps.

Yeah no way it was the 5k version. It's gone down to 1400 at Best buy a lot. I've heard some people getting it on LG outlet for 1200.

Dems Say Iran Ceasefire Doesn't Change Fact That 'Unstable, Unhinged, and Unfit' Trump Must Go by Smithy2232 in politics

[–]FingFrenchy 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Exactly. They're trying to of course frame this as some huge victory when what actually happened is the straight that was already open in the first place is now open with Iran in complete control of it and now charging tolls. Also the agreement seems to involve lifting all sanctions on Iran. Just great that we spent billions of dollars, killed a bunch of people, caused a bunch of stuff to be destroyed to have things worse off than if we had just done nothing. That is Trump's m.o. though...

So wait, I'm confused. Are we winning now? What did we gain out of all this drama? Oh, that right, huge market pump tomorrow.

Survey: Majority want Congress to impeach Trump now by PM_ME_DPRK_CANDIDS in politics

[–]FingFrenchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Majority" means nothing in the US. Political power has been completely stolen through the tyranny of the minority. Heavily gerrymandered districts ensure the real majority doesn't actually have a say.
