everything runs on Valve time.

Shit, I guess we were lucky to get SteamOS 3 then!

So piracy is a civil crime, not a criminal one? Awww 😩 All this time I thought I was cooler than I really am. (Sad arrr noises)

Statute of limitations??

A big problem with this is that since 2016 the bots and hired commenters have thoroughly poisoned the intellectual well. What used to be considered extreme in 2016 was so artificially boosted that now real people have completely bought into the bullshit.

Only when it’s pointless.

Two words: female Bond.

Plenty of great movies with females and/or female leads. Ghost busters was not one of them.

Plus I can pause to pee, vape away, set the volume on my surround sound exactly where I want, etc. And my 84” 4K DV/HDR+ OLED may not be a gigantic silver screen, but I enjoy it. Combined with 120TB of storage for Plex, I’m more than happy to wait for the bluray remux.

I used to fucking ADORE going to the movies - but nowadays, it needs to be a spectacular spectacular. Last movie I saw in the theater was Top Gun 2, and it was worthy.

No. Marketing typically equals production costs. So $400mm production + $400mm marketing = $800mm breakeven.

Kbin has this ability, but Lemmy does not (yet).

I’ve been getting a ton of cardboard spools, but I prefer plastic - cardboard is incompatible with my Bambu AMS. To resolve I have to wrap the edge with electric tape, use a printed adapter, or in the worst cases (the cardboard is damaged) respool.

Totally depends on the challenge of the project - and it follows a bell curve. Too easy and it’s annoying, too difficult (or takes too long) and it’s fucking aggravating. But those rare Goldilocks projects that are a challenge but shit just clicks along? Chefs kiss.

Another vote for UniFi gear. I administer four homes for myself and my family, three of them all use UniFi equipment (and the fourth will next time I get over there, it’s in another country).

it looks like this in a museum gift shop

Yes, this is the official gift shop in the Roman Coliseum. I found it really strange that they would be selling 3d prints. It’s like, why?? If you want to sell plastic souvenirs, surely injection-molded plastic would be much more efficient, cost-effective, and higher quality.

It feels like maybe the gift-shop managers kid “had a great idea” for his new toy.

“Eco-friendly bio-resin derived from CORN!”

Bitch, that’s PLA! 😂😂

Neat!

r/trees comes to mind, if there was an actual arborist community that want r/trees, well they were fucked.

There was. They ended up with, I think, /r/marijuana_enthusiasts or something like that. It was quite funny to both sides, at least it was like 15 years ago.

You need to click the “chain” icon rather than the “federated star” icon to view the post “from your instance” and stay on your personal account.

Woah. I’ve been clicking the star the whole time. This may make things a looot easier.
