  • Hate their chocolate design with a passion (yes, even with knowing the shite reasoning behind it). Still buying it though, they're super tasty.

    Speaking of tasty:

  • You could decide not to consume or look for a company that at least tries not to be shite. And or buy small business / local.

  • So what are you using on the desktop and how long have you been using it? I've switched to Linux / open source software a year ago and especially learning programs (design / media tools in my case) was super painful for some time. But I had the motivation of not wanting to use an OS that tries to spy on me and getting away from a super shady monopolist (Adobe) as a motivator that kept me going. Sure there are still some things that get on my nerves but those exist in Microsoft's (and Apple's) and Adobe's products as well.

  • Germany votes for historic boost to defence and infrastructure spending

    Jump

  • 100% agree with you that military isn't good or sexy ever but comparing this photo to like a grizzly, manly man in the mud (which could be sexy as well, lol) I think this image wants to say "Look we're not the reactionary, sexist boys club we once were (which is a complete lie, probably), come join us, we even got women now!" So basicallly propaganda.

  • Blender 4.4 released

    Jump

  • Ooops, yes, sorry, Eevee is Blender's real time renderer (like a game engine) that fakes fakes a lot of stuff while Cycles is the classic "physics-based" renderer. I heard that it took under a minute to Render a frame which is absurd for movie quality. But it makes sense since the look is kinda stylized (only noticed in the cinema that characters are kinda cell shaded) but it still looks so good, the lightning, fog, water, bloom, dephth of field, wow. Was really worth it watching on the big screen. Story is a bit weird but loved the characters and their interactions.

  • Yeah, agree.

    OP: Would you be able to mark that image as sensitive / nsfw or whatever it's called on Lemmy?

  • Generally if you are ethically ok with using fascist / capitalist "social" media go for it. As you say it might (if the overlords allow it) reach people outside the choir.

    One biiiiiig condition:

    Make sure that everything you post there is also available on the real internet. There's nothing I despise more than people from lefstist circles who are only posting their stuff on Insta or similar. Like wtf.
