Smart watches really feel like the palm pilots/pdas of this generation.

I love my sensorwatch!! I have an f91w and an a158w with an OG sensor watch and a lite respectively and they have been so much fun to mess with.

Glad to see the Pro is on the way!

I dunno what everyone else is using pis for but for me it’s not media centers or servers. The pi has a full gpio header with i2c and spi. I can hook up LCD screens, sensors, servos, etc without much additional components. It’s like an Arduino except I get a real file system, network stack, multicore performance.

It’s more than just a single board computer it feels like an ultra microcontroller.

I feel like this whole “micro PCs are better than raspis” is coming from the group of people who never really used pis for what they were intended? I don’t know. Maybe I’m out to lunch here, I’m not trying to defend the pi because it is definitely a really bad choice for a lot of things but honestly despite all the bad blood they’ve accrued there still isn’t an sbc that can really match it’s utility and community support at least that I’ve seen.

Someone should update this. Put a gun in the hand of the standing astronaut and add a line of dialogue “always has been”

*hhaha oof I’ll show myself out.

You need to calm down.

This comment thread was a trip!

Maybe its less like a number as we know it, and more like an ant poem or other mnemonic representation?

Ensign Sonya Gomez over here thanking the replicator

TNG “Q Who?”

SONYA: Hot chocolate, please.

LAFORGE: We don’t ordinarily say please to food dispensers around here.

SONYA: Well, since it’s listed as intelligent circuitry, why not? After all, working with so much artificial intelligence can be dehumanising, right? So why not combat that tendency with a little simple courtesy. Thank you.

GIMP is great but it definitely needs its own Blender 3.0 moment where they just completely overhaul the UI.

I’ve used it as my primary raster app so I’m way used to it now, but I totally understand the people who just never even bother to learn it because they are so turned off by the absolutely bonkers design decisions.

We had a black cat once that jumped in a preheating oven when a back was turned and we didn’t see her. We heard her crying before she got hurt but it haunts me what could have happened.

It was this thing. Ages ago. https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-gear/camping/earl-rugged-revolutionary-tablet/

The Earl Tablet.

I wish Eric had given us pebble v2 instead of beeper, honestly.

Agreed. I also see them all over youtube videos and stuff and I just can’t keep reading/watching. Its not like an ideological thing, i don’t hate generated art. I just find it so distracting.

I feel like such a fake fan. This is obviously one of his most personal and sincere artistic offerings as a film maker… but I was just bored the entire way through. It was beautiful and whimsical, but the story left me so cold and unsatisfied. Nothing resolved, nothing really mattered, nothing felt like subtext. And I know I’m wrong, it MUST be something I missed.

I guess I’m just basic, but hit me with that Porco Rosso or Wind Rises or Laputa vibes. But thats art, there’s no accounting for taste. I’m going to watch Heron again and see if it takes a second viewing for it to hit home.

Regardless how I feel about it, I was so happy to finally catch a Miyazaki film in theatres with my kids. That was great.

You know that’s a true story? Lady lost a kid. You’re about to cross some fuckin’ lines.

Cool opinion, and I don’t fault you for it… but I loved it. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah you kinda nailed it.

Lemmy taught me that I wasn’t just running away from Reddit, but from the kind of content sites like Reddit engender.
