just to make extra sure you cannot read the fucking thing.

Yeah at this point I’m surprised how news organizations can still be on X. That place is complete bullshit now and I bet the comments on news articles are especially troubling.

Even more baffling, lots of keyboards don’t support this for German that has a bunch of compound words. Swiftkey (at least in the past) even split up compound words is German, thereby messing up correct grammar and replacing it with wrong grammar. It was infuriating.

A good rule of thumb is that the energy needs to go somewhere. So if the adapter was drawing a significant amount of power, it would get warm to the touch.

The Panic Playdate. It’s just a really nice gaming console that is getting a lot of support from game devs. It’s one of the very few truly portable handhelds as it can easily fit in a pocket and the battery lasts forever too.

Wow I didn’t know that. Good thing I switched to a different instance (although it was mostly due to poor performance on lemmy.ml at the time).

The hack on reddit used to be to hijack a top comment. Post something vaguely related to that comment, then add whatever you wanna add. It’s silly that this was required at all.

It’s a terrible tale of oppression if you read between the blocks.

I switched from Adobe to Affinity a few years back. The interfaces of the Affinity apps are way better and the apps work much smoother and even have fully fledged iPad versions. There was not really a learning curve for me other than googling very specific stuff every now and then.

The biggest issue is probably that there’s no feature parity between the Affinity and Adobe apps yet. So every once in a while a feature might just be missing.

I’d suggest to just check out the trial versions or even buy the apps right away if your financial situation allows it.

No friends there either.

Well to be fair I’m still enjoying Mastodon a lot and Pixelfed too (which is the better Instagram replacement) but pretty much everyone I follow is somebody I don’t know in real life. Instagram is great to see what your extended circle of friends is doing.

Eh, I‘d do it if it meant the services respected privacy and actually put the users first.

Paying for what these big services currently are? Hell no.

I wasn’t looking into paying for it. This popped up upon opening the app.

I‘d suggest a used M1 MacBook Air with 16 GB of RAM. They should be relatively cheap now and they’re still great machines.

This one was really cool. I didn’t expect the wood to actually stop a real bullet and it’s insane how much time and resources were spent on this video.

That sounds horrible. What about this stupid standard takes this fucking long? Is it not improvable by current tech?

But adding previously unseen stuff would be changing/redirecting the movie/show.

You could see this with The Wire 16:9 remake. They rescanned the original negatives that were shot in 16:9 but framed and cropped to 4:3. As a result the framing felt a bit off and the whole thing felt a bit awkward / amateurish.

The sidebar on the homepage reads „A leftist social platform centered around community building through discussion, shitposting memes, and sharing content.“

You should do a project together

Same for me! It’s an awesome way to watch movies and tv shows

So it could essentially be locked if too many links are constantly posted - but then the creator could just give it more resources to catch up with the queue. In addition to this, the link conversion is ridiculously simple as it’s just appending the video id to a piped-link (no complex calculation or API requests required). So it doesn’t even need a lot of resources to begin with.
