I'm a big believer in using powerful programs that are well outside of my scope of ability.

Nothing wrong with that. But it is likely that Photoshop Elements is already well outside your scope of ability. It would be quite challenging to master its advanced features. For example, you could take a photo of a house, compost it to realistically look like another location (correcting lighting, shadows, and colors), then make the whole picture look like a classical oil painting. Maybe draw from scratch a realistic sword and sorcery scene.

Sure I can do the same with GIMP.

I RARELY use any advanced features in GIMP, but when I want to do something complex, I just look it up.

With Photoshop, I can't trust the program to exist next year. I can't trust it not to require me to update it once a year. I can't trust it to run on an older version of Windows. I've been screwed over and over and over by proprietary programs to such an extent, I just quit using them. Maybe it's a higher learning curve, but it's just ONE learning curve.

Why do people still us MS Office when there's LibreOffice?

https://www.libreoffice.org/

Just stupidity in my opinion at this point. LibreOffice (once OpenOffice) was better able to read old MS Office documents, than MS Office could. I know people who did their thesis in MS Office who couldn't open up the document in a modern version of MS Office, Open Office could.

In 30 years, the SAME THING will happen with MS Office again. I bet Photoshop will be entirely different as well.

People swear that MS Office is "better", but it's just different than LibreOffice. LibreOffice doesn't break backward compatibility to older documents. MS Office does, and the fucking thing is now on a subscription model. People who use it, are locked into it. It's just dumb.

I have an actuary friend who says that the most advanced features of Excel are not in LibreOffice, but he needs them for his job.

Also some of the simpler ones. When I had everyone using OpenOffice at the cab company awhile back, OpenOffice did not support text-to-columns. True, I was able to fix that with a plug-in, but people who need to get work done do not have time to be updating their app, they just need it to work. Another issue was that we received excel sheets from outside offices that used graphic features that would not work in OpenOffice and prevent the sheet from opening. Not that these graphics added any value, just that the sender thought using "pro" looking templates looked more competent.

This is the main problem, compatibility.

I bet they are available, but entirely different in use. The calculation functions in the spreadsheet are different, for example, but LibreOffice has a full language, but from MS, it's copyrighted, they can't duplicate MS Office entirely.

I think the problem is "who is bigger". A smaller company is forced to use whatever the larger company uses.

Dr. John Campbell: Covid 'Vaccine' Causes Brain and Heart Injury, Not the Infection (Video)

Both the U.S. and the U.K. are refusing to investigate anomalous deaths. “Now, why are autopsies not being done in the United States?"

In a recent video posted to his YouTube channel, Dr. John Campbell provides unequivocal evidence that the mRNA covid vaccines cause brain and heart injury.

Why don't they do autopsies? Why don't we find out the cause of death of these healthy young, and not so healthy older. people that "died suddenly". According to all the CSI and forensic crime shows from the last couple of decades we can establish the exact time, place, and killer of a mutilated corpse. We should be able to find out what these people actually died from. "Suddenly" is not a cause of death.

Patrick says

Did they tell you?

If you're asking me, no. I'm going to guess that they wouldn't either BUT, it's hard to hide serious health problems so, I would have heard about those.

All television is propaganda.

Besides, they know full well what is killing people. I'm sure they've done SOME autopsies, and from that have been able to come to a conclusion. Conspiracies exist and the way they work is not because everybody in the conspiracy has to know they are in one. They just have to do their job, and keep their mouth shut.

The lesson is clear. Whenever the State and its military-industrial-biopharmaceutical friends make big promises to the citizenry, the citizenry should be skeptical. Most of the people who work for the State have little competence beyond routine administrative work. The industrialists who create new technologies rarely if ever foresee the consequences of their technologies being deployed in wide-scale practice. When our officials tell us that we MUST participate in their latest grand scheme, we should tell them. No thanks. We don’t believe the State and its lobbyist friends are our Benevolent Father, and we will manage without your “help.”

My fear is falling for the Boy who cried wolf. The 3rd time, the wolf really did come and slaughter the sheep. What is to keep the government from faking us out and then, when we all tell them we don't believe them, they release the REAL Kraken and kill us all because we didn't take the current jab?

Why wouldn't they have just released the Kraken 3 years ago?

I don't think biological weapons work very well. It's hard to make a disease that kills, AND spreads. Quickly mutating viruses tend to attenuate. I just don't believe the government can build a good biological weapon in a virus.

Good question. However, I am not an expert in psyop warfare.

12-Year-Old New Jersey Boy Dies Suddenly During Football Practice

Team officials say that Brown-Garcia was not engaged in heavy activity at the time, according to News 12.

“No contact. It was just drills running back and forth. He didn’t get hit,” said his mother, Raven Brown. “He was a healthy kid…I don’t know why Friday night was his day.”

They can’t kill us all because they still need enough slaves to do their bidding so they don’t have to labor.

I'm no longer afraid of viruses now that, thanks to @Rin and others, I've discovered ivermectin, hydroxycholoquine or quercetin phytosome, and zinc. Unless a virus can kill me within 24 hours, Rin's cocktail + ivermectin will clobber it within 3 days.

I've converted a long-time friend to the virtues of the 'mectin. The more I use it, the more I understand why the discoverers won the Nobel Prize. It really is a miracle drug.

I wonder what the results would have been if instead of using remdesivir to "cure" Ebola, they tried ivermectin + the Rin cocktail or something comparable like Zelenko's (RIP).

My wife & I attended the wake for my cousin's only son (my 2nd. cousin) who 'died suddenly' at 36. Much could be said, but I'll keep it brief and pertinent to this post.

Two particularly interesting conversations, both with 2nd. cousins. 'Debbie' (not her real name) is a highly educated medical specialist that works out of town for a well known hospital. Debbie told me the shocking news that both her husband and son have recently suffered serious * 'brain damage' and are bed-ridden. Prior to this, she said both her son and husband were 'perfectly healthy.' Her husband is about 50 and the son in his early 20's. Considering Debbie's association with the hospital, there is no doubt in my mind that they were vaccinated. Debbie has always been a very self-confident individual and somewhat aloof. Yesterday, she was clearly shaken. You could see the pain in her eyes ... and the fear.

'Ben' is another 2nd. cousin and was close to the diseased. We had a lengthy conversation that turned to the subject of the COVID 'vaccines.' Ben emphatically stated that he was against the 'vaccines.' Knowing that he was much closer to the situation than I was, I asked him if he knew what happened. He said he didn't know specifically, but that he didn't doubt it one bit that it was the 'vaccine.'

Obviously, there is no proof that the 'vaccines' were the cause and effect of the above, but it sure seems highly suspicious at the very least.

* I did a quick search on 'vaccine' related brain damage and found this:

Vaccine brain injury. Dr. John Campbell presents slides showing vax damage to brain & heart tissue. The spike protein is toxic and can cause early dementia. "Safe" and "Effective" in what?

Sorry to hear it. Was an autopsy ordered?

Al_Sharpton_for_President says

Sorry to hear it. Was an autopsy ordered?

Thank you. I'm sure that an autopsy was done. In the county where he died, whenever someone dies at home a representative from the Coroner's Office, along with a Sheriff's Deputy, must visit the home prior to removal of the body. In almost every case, an autopsy is ordered by the Coroner. In this case, being that he was only 36, an autopsy would have been an automatic.

Of course, only his mother will have access to the results.

https://slaynews.com/news/cbs-soaring-heart-attacks-lack-masking/

CBS News’s medical expert has claimed that the unprecedented spike in the number of young people suffering sudden heart attacks is due to a lack of masking and a failure to keep up to date with vaccinations.

Was going to put this in the gaslighting thread, but it's an admission that young people are now suffering heart attacks, which is halfway to the truth that the fucking toxxine is causing them.

World War III Appears Imminent as the Establishment Attempts to Sweep Vaccine Genocide Under the Rug
