Windows 10 has a Night Light setting, KDE has Night Color, and both Android and iOS usually have something similar. I'm pretty sure ChromeOS does, too.

I'm curious how this got C-SPAM wound up, other than ArfJason's rather curious posting aura that makes people unreasonably angry at them for things that should only be slightly annoying. (See the second-to-last big QCS blowup that had what, four mod casualties?)

some plague rats posted:

The part that wound people up was that it wasn't just the one recipe, Arf posted about 30 of them one after another in the pictures thread with no comment and no response to anyone, driving people absolutely mad
That and people endlessly quoting them in full size.

Didn't he also get banned from Twitter for the first time for "joking" about hitting some female politician with a chessboard? Lots of really suspect "jokes," in retrospect.

i think this one is less "lowtax hates women" and more "nancy pelosi loving sucks as a human being" tbh

Even his username should have been a big hint. (change some of the letters in lowtax and add some other ones, and it spells 'beat women fun good time')

It was either Lowtax himself or some front page writer that poo poo-talked one of Boll's movies, and Boll as a publicity stunt challenged him and a few others. Lowtax was one of four who accepted.

I haven't watched this in a while but it's obvious that Lowtax expected it to be a gag match for funsies, and he starts out by showboating and dancing around. When Uwe saw an opening he went in and just walloped him, it's great.

Important note: Uwe Boll made the challenge before Lowtax wrote the article. He specifically wrote the article so that he could fight Uwe Boll. He thought it was gonna be a joke fight or something.

Uwe told Lowtax that it wasn't a serious fight and that he'd help train him. It turns out both those things were lies and very funny.

and something about a gas chamber as well. Twitter doesn't normally ban that quickly for jokes, so I really wonder if he was sending abusive dms

He was banned from twitter very quickly multiple times. At the time, people thought that someone at twitter must have had a grudge against SA. It really is uncanny how good abusers are at hiding in people's blind spots and allowing the generosity that people naturally extend to one another to just cover over everything about them. Because you don't assume another person is behaving monstrously in secret when they have a reasonable explanation about how they've been treated unfairly, at least not for the first few times.

Twitter bans are a coinflip but IIRC the first ban was for "throw a checkerboard at nancy pelosi" and the 2nd ban was for "trap some popular right-wing youtube guy in a box and fill it with concrete"

I mean I got multiple slurs and an actual death threat from a dude with "White Rights" in his bio with no action taken, then I got banned for telling him I was going to transform into a cloud of chlorine gas and hover over his house til he suffocated so :shrug:

I got a temp ban for calling someone a wife beater and it seemed to basically happen automatically. I think some words or phrases are automatically flagged for moderation. Now I only reply to his tweets with a link to the news report of that person's arrest for domestic abuse.

it depends who you're replying to.

if they have a blue tick then there's definitely a list of terms that'll get you temp-banned and then just banned if you do it like 3 times.

Yeah, we don't really need to rewrite history and make Twitter out to be some force that was good the whole time. The Pelosi comment really isn't anything in and of itself, but in context with everything else we know about him, it just sits differently.

unless you are using an operating system that would actually require knowing enough not to ask this question, the options are built into the OS.

even with alot of the ones that do require knowing a bunch, tbh

Fun fact Pat Tillman wrote increasingly frustrated diatribes about the military in his diary and specifically complained about his celebrity status being used for propaganda.

Also there was a cartoon coverup like they just burned his personal affects instead of sending them to his wife.

He'd approve of the joke

He was basically on his way to being a communist. If they hadn’t killed him he’d have been openly supporting the anti-war movement.
