    Got a 1ct dipper on a tungsten comfort fit band for $250. It was perfect... Until it shattered on tile and I lost the stone. No more diamonds for me 😔

    Photogrametry has pretty much secured photorealistic baked-in effects without any additional computational power. Just by using real photos (especially 3D scan photos) you cut out mapping, toning, and forming (all together a 1hr+ process) all in one step. That, coupled with modern engine lighting and an eye for what makes things "real" and you get that one bodycam footage game that everyone was jaw-dropped about.

    Thoughts on Lemmy sorting options?

    None of the megaguides I've seen actually show how to use the mobile apps/sites. I've been told what the Fediverse is and how it works enough times to build the backend myself, but I have no clue how to navigate.

    I'm pretty far from Marxist myself, but I gotta say, I can't see a system like Lemmy coming up at this point in the lifecycle of the internet except through that kind of ideology. I'll gladly verbally bitch-slap a tankie for their pro-Putler bs, but the fact that an alt-right instance can (and probably does) exist is proof that true freedom of speech can exist only on a free and open platform like Lemmy. Fuck whatever Elon thought it was.

    It is interesting to see people flock here to celebrate values that they don't politically espouse. I am not a marxist myself, but I don't think we would have anything close to this product without such an ideology, and it's just as ironic to see a few alt-right instances floating around. The human experience is complicated, to say the least.

  • First post on the glorious Fediverse. I joined the moment the protest start, and I have to say, I have yet to see a single advertisement, targetted or otherwise, sans a few honest (fedditors? Don't hang me) offering commission work. I was born just in time to see the death of IRC and the birth of targetted advertising and social media headed by corporate interest. Mark my words, Lemmy, I ain't going back. I really hope this is the start of a shift to a renewed, decentralized internet. PS. Who do I donate to? Is there a patreon for Lemmy or general instances?

    I've been using jerboa for my reading, but it kinda sucks trying to find communities from scratch. Is there a macro-wrapper that I can scroll all the popular instances from alltogether? I'm on android mobile 99% of the time.
