If they were using a polarizing filter on their lens, then the two targets would appear to have uniform brightness. What you're seeing isn't one target brighter than the other, it's a glare from the sun reflecting off the paper. Look at the far right of the right target and you'll see a similar brightness value.

Learn more about polarization in photography with some similar examples.

I guess I'm the problem for locking in a good interest rate when they were low and not wanting to fuck myself over by moving.

Funny, I locked in a bad interest rate when they were high. I'd refinance, but I can only find "worse interest rates that are higher."

Also "appraised" and "apprised" are not homonyms, unless you pronounce them wrong.

Gimme big tabs that look like buttons on a child's ipad app. I also want the tab matrix enabled and always visible on mobile. Finally, they must make various squeaking/honking/chirping noises when I select them and animal noises when left inactive for too long.

I desire tab matrices. Bottom 20% of the window is my browser display

I use a KVM switch tree and run it off an alternator connected to my desk bike

Yeah, that's more appropriate for a WHEN clause or possibly even a WHOM

 

Hopefully this is the right place to post:

I've been trying to help my mother declutter her house, primarily of the stuff my father left behind when he died nearly a decade ago. I recently found a good number of discs for Mac from pre-OS X. I unfortunately don't have any running old Macs anymore and have neither the time or space to do anything with them.

I hate tossing out anything that someone else could use and selling my dad's stuff makes me feel gross. If anyone is willing to cover shipping, I'd be more than happy to send them whatever Mac games I come across.
