(Possibly a nooby question.)

I was watching Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, and as always I instinctively went to the brightness button on my keyboard, but it was already on maximum. Why tf to they often make TV shows so damn dark nowadays?? D:

Is there please some sort of program or app for Linux Mint to make it the video a bit more brighter? I'm not exactly a tech savvy person, so I won't be able to do anything overly elaborate.

"Devil Eyes was the code name for a secret psychological warfare program in 2005–2006 by the United States Central Intelligence Agency. The program allegedly aimed to develop an action figure of Osama bin Laden and distribute it in South Asia, especially Afghanistan and Pakistan, as part of an effort to influence public opinion.[1][2]

The CIA worked in conjunction with toymaker Donald Levine, a former Hasbro executive who has been credited as the "father" of G.I. Joe toys.[3] Levine designed a 12-inch lifelike figure of bin Laden whose face was painted with a material that, when heated, would peel off to reveal a demon-like visage with red skin, green eyes, and black markings. The goal of the program was to scare children and their parents to turn public opinion against the real Osama bin Laden, or Al-Qaeda.[4][5][6]"

From December 1, 2012, until January 31, 2013, a stylistic disagreement unfolded between editors on the English-language Wikipedia as to whether the word "into" in the title of the Wikipedia article for the 2013 film Star Trek Into Darkness should be capitalized. More than 40,000 words were written on the article's talk page (a page for editors to discuss changes to the article) before a consensus was reached to capitalize the "I".

During the dispute, cartoonist Randall Munroe wrote and drew a January 30, 2013, xkcd comic strip both honoring and making fun of the edit war, depicting an editor who resolved the edit war by rewriting the title as "_*StAr TrEk InTo DaRkNeSs_*".

i had this idea. it's not my idea actually, but i don't know the name by which this type of action is called. i have some books that i would place somewhere outside with a label saying they are supposed to be taken home by whomever finds them, read and then placed somewhere else by the person that read it last. i though along with this i could place a tag with a link for some sort of guestbook hosted in a fediverse/foss site so that people could tell me what their opinions on each book are. do you guys have any ideas where i could host that?

ideally, the site should be:

• somewhat easy to manage for someone that doesn't know how to code (aka me)
• able to have multiple pages or spaces for each book
• people should be able to post their opinions without having to sign up for anything (though i'd like it to have somewhere to post some basic info about the fediverse and hopefully get people to look it up).

i'd be grateful if you have any other ideas for my project as well! also, you a
