On 19 August 1953 a coup d'état overthrew the Prime Minister of Iran, Mohammad Mosaddegh, strengthening the rule of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran.[5] It was instigated by the United Kingdom (MI6), under the name Operation Boot[6][7][8][9] and by the United States (CIA), under the name TP-AJAX Project[10] or Operation Ajax. A key motive was to protect British oil interests in Iran after Mosaddegh had nationalized the country's oil industry in 1951.[11][12][13]

    We need to start a database of all these "dems" and their votes to build an interactive website for election season. Easily searchable maybe with a timeline with bill title, date voted, bill summary, link to bill and their term expiration. Along with a score of their voting record on a scale of [people <----> corporation].

    Not gonna say much besides it was grim. Then lemmy instances joined together and banned the user, whoever it was and started blocking the image. Soon after there seemed to be a general consensus across the board to stop talking about her/them. To stop feeding whatever they were doing. And the fediverse moved on.

    So I have been having a problem where the dock just would not recognize HDMI in both desktop and handheld modes. I tried every fix I could find to no avail.

    Then I started thinking it could be about KDE and not the deck or dock. So I found that you can reset monitor configs by deleting ~/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json. You have to do this while your logged out of KDE. The easiest way I found was to add dolphin file manager as a non steam game and remove the config in handheld mode.

    After that I did a hard reset holding the power button till the light flashes a few times and powering on with the dock connected to HDMI.

    This allowed me to get things working again.
