I brought the brightness of the photo up for sure here so that it looks interesting and not dim/dull on your display.
I can tell you from experience though that we were able to see the red, blue, violet, green, and sometimes the yellow on the horizon unaided. Put simply, it was incredible and I wanted this photo to provide the same feeling.
Here’s a photo I transferred to my phone with the transfer app doing a simple jpeg conversion. 2.5 second exposure at ISO 5000, 36mm:
This is perhaps slightly brighter than what I recall seeing on the horizon.
Driving 40 minutes east of Bend brought us down to zero light pollution.
I use mealie, but an older version which still has its recipes public. Still waiting for that to be an option on newer versions.
One of the main reasons why I use Discord nowadays aside from the fact that my gaming community is there is for its extremely low latency video streaming.
I tried to use other meet softwares but the latency was 10+ seconds. Not useful when I need immediate feedback. Discord offers the quickest and most reliable way for me to get someone else looking at my stream in real-time.
I’ll be looking for alternatives because they’re, of course, not doing anything impossible for others to replicate, they just made it the default.
Why does anyone choose Telegram or WhatsApp over Signal which is encrypted and audited? (Probably features I don’t care about, but they do)
“Simple” doing a looooot of heavy lifting there.
I just use Firefox until it definitely doesn’t work, then I use a chromium browser because of course I can’t not have access to a crucial website for my life.
Post-patch content in A Realm Reborn and Heavensward are both pretty rough. Post-patch content gets a bit better later on. Look up the alliance raid series’ and the raids and do those as well to break up the monotony.
Not a huge deal. Microsoft has every incentive to keep Call of Duty on the market leading console. Considering we’re about halfway through this cycle based on history, that means Microsoft would have left CoD on PlayStation 5 for another 3-4 years. This deal is very obviously only happening due to the anti-trust case, and because of the aforementioned 3-4 years it basically just says “we agree to put CoD on PS6 regardless of how well it does.”
Of course, when the companies merge, no regulatory body is going to actually keep Microsoft to their word with penalties high enough to care about.
This merger is bad for the industry without a doubt in my mind.
…and the things which aren’t are foundational elements of the republican party’s platform.
On the plus side you (maybe) got to play it a week earlier!
I do know that if you attempted this right now, all of the instances would need to access the same database somewhere which would retain a bottleneck.
Switching to a different distributed (eventually-consistent) database may be possible for Lemmy as a software but perhaps not possible (or difficult) for ActivityPub. I don’t know that.
I don’t have it myself but I hear that Jerboa requires the instance you signed up on to be (lemmy) version 0.18 as of a recent version.
Useful for grabbing and keeping a personal backup of emails. Can be referenced offline if connection to the internet is poor. Native notifications. Better integration into other desktop applications. For Apple users, good syncing across devices.
Obviously web clients could also provide most of these benefits as well.
Cutscenes are definitely very prominent so far. I’d say like 70/30 or 60/40 gameplay cutscene. I think there’s more gameplay than cutscene but it’s still a lot of cutscene so far.
Grinding levels on all my lowest jobs. Getting gear for Viper, Picto. Prepping for an XP-bomb to Viper. Inventory and Quest clean out. (Also why I’m leveling)
