Biggest problem for me is that posts no longer show as read. Makes it almost completely unusable. I switch to Voyager and canceled my premium Sync subscription.

Damn power hungry admins always keeping the sweet sweet bot ladies for themselves.

Still haven’t gotten one. Guess the bots don’t like me.

I love Brandon Sanderson, but his world building and complex magic systems aren’t for most people. I’ve tried to get my wife to read his stuff for years and she just has never gotten into it.

The reason Harry Potter was so commercially successful is because the vast majority of the public doesn’t want to learn about allomantic properties of 16 different metals and how they have internal/external, physical/mental, enhancement/temporal and pushing/pulling effects.

They don’t want to learn about adhesion, gravitation, division, abrasion, progression, illumination, transformation, cohesion, and tension surges - and how bonding a spren through oathes increases your ability to surgebind. Their eyes glaze over when talking about the cognitive and physical realms.

Most people just want to hear “yeah some people are magic and can wave wands, say some magic words and poof magic happens.” That’s why it’s one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time.

But yeah, I’ve just learned to accept that while I love some Sanderson magic systems, it’s not ever gonna be for everyone. And that’s ok.

Honestly, if my PM never pestered me about the status of my tickets, I would never close them. Some of us need the pestering!

Yeah I regularly spend hours here every day with no lack of content. For example, did you see the guy with the thermal camera a couple days ago? Facisinating.

Doesn’t seem to work. Clicking search just opened a full screen as on mobile with no close options.

I read the first book and had absolutely no fucking clue what was happening. Do they get better? I feel like I needed to be doing cocaine at the time.

Wow text on AI images has really improved in the last few months.

It’s Alpha Centauri C that’s really fucking things up for generations of Trisolarans.

That’s dope as fuck

How’d you pull that off? The question mark looks like filament, not like a neon tube.

Oddly enough I was just reading a book last night that made a joke about the bikini armor women have on fantasy airbrushed vans. Scott Meyer’s Magic 2.0 series is hilarious if anyone is looking for a light-hearted read.

Lol I’ve got an Ender V2 - and my brother just upgraded to a Bambu. He’s such a fucker… I’m jealous.

So like The Ring but 100 years earlier?

Can we also get a MIDI file to play at full volume whenever I open Lemmy?

Seriously. This image convinced me hell is real and I’m going there for having seen it.

Lol I’d say you’re lucky that it was only 3-4 hours!

Now that you mention it, I have no clue! There’s no exhaust fan on mine. It definitely works though, so I assume the people that made it are smarter than me.

Except those times where it just stops writing to log files. Sometimes I’ll be in the shower zoned out and find myself on the last step of my routine without remembering completing any of the steps.
