This was a neat read, 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.

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?

great project getting better all the time!

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!

We’ve got number two on the way and my mother is furiously trying to finish another baby blanket. I wish you luck, I know baby will appreciate it.

Fuck him up ladies.

god it’s nice when government works for the people occasionally, kudos to the many people who made this happen

BetaFPV Meteor75 Pro with walksnail, I got the RadioMaster Pocket and Caddx Goggles X. I wanted something I could fly indoors and I really wanted digital hd video and that seemed like it checked both boxes.

I’m getting an fpv quadcopter setup for myself for my birthday this year and I’m waiting for the drone to arrive. I’m super excited to fly for the first time. I’ve been practicing in a simulator and watching videos and researching to make sure I understand the tools, technology and regulation around the hobby. I’ve been completely absorbed for a month now and I’m going nuts waiting for this package to arrive. I haven’t felt like this since I was a tiny person probably. I’m super obsessed at the moment.

Let’s go

This is, by far, the best insult I’ve seen all year

That’s fantastic
