I cannot agree with this more. The first time I realized I just didn’t enjoy the adrenaline rush of a jump scare was watching I am Legend and after like the 5th jump scare I was worn out and upset about it.

thanks for sharing! added to my prowlarrr

This was a neat read, thanks for sharing!

you absolute beast

Interesting story, thanks for sharing!

I see more engagement across my Lemmy feeds every week. It’s definitely smaller and slower here but there are real relationships and communities forming. I think the fediverse is strongly positioned to outlive and maybe even outgrow closed social ecosystems. If you’re frustrated with a lack of a certain kind of content on Lemmy make it your responsibility to go create or share some of that content.

Geocities, Myspace, Digg, Reddit all started somewhere. I think any good underlying framework (federated social networks) that enables strong communities will always stand a chance. I really do get early reddit vibes on here.

Been waiting for this

this is the kind of comment I hope for when I come here

I had the opportunity once to see Curiosity modeled in a VR environment as if you were standing on Mars next to it and I remember how very surprised I was at how big it was.

As a fun side note now that you’ve jogged my memory. That same demo also had a model of the Rosetta spacecraft orbiting Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. For whatever reason it was sized so that the asteroid comet was about the size of a cat and I will never forgot watching that itty bitty little satellite orbit around that odd shaped asteroid comet in front of me.

you answered my question before I could even ask, thanks for sharing!

I use the Bash Cookbook quite a bit and do recommend it if you’re going to spend a lot of time in the shell. Thanks for sharing!

A friend re-introduced me to James Blake and I’m really digging it.

thanks!

thanks!

I don’t know who Ann Selzer is, can someone give me a rundown?

Seems as good a place as any to throw my hot take, this is interesting but it’s certainly not a google killer, just more reminders of how much google currently sucks compared to what they could be doing

the internet desperately needs some better discovery tooling

great project getting better all the time!

Also Mac here. I started with a linux laptop but still have to do some desktop support work for the company and since they all use Mac it’s just easier to dogfood it. At least I have a decent terminal emulator.

I did Soylent for a year or so and have zero regrets. I felt better, lost weight and probably saved some money. I ate it for most meals but would probably make dinner for myself about half the time just for some variety. Hope you have a good experience with it!

TIL, thanks for sharing!
