Just sitting here realizing .... is the fediverse going to make me smarter?
I've been here a few weeks and instead of watching outrage content that makes me pace around my house, I've been listening to podcasts on morality and rationality and taking sci-fi (emphasis on SCI) space tours made by NASA.
Anyways thanks for posting this. New to me!
I had the same thought. There are no algorithms for engagement, there's minimal political agenda pushing, and nobody is getting monetized for the content they make...
Is this, home? This feels like the old internet again.
Lemmy is currently overrepresented by more tech inclined peoples who I suppose have less interest in that sort of thing. You can't scroll very far without something to do with programming or Linux, but honestly I'm not complaining.
Short answer: yes
Longer answer: anything that gets you out of your comfort zone will expand your box of interests. Choose wisely your time.
These are awesome, thanks for sharing!
Now I just need to find a place that can print these posters in a good quality
@CoderKat where did you get your canvas printed?
Edit: Is there a way to mention users like on Reddit?
I personally just used Walmart's photo center, simply because it was cheapest and they had a convenience online tool and delivered to my door. But for the canvas prints, I had to make minor edits to stretch the edges, since the canvas has wrap around (and I didn't want a plain white edge). That's not an issue if not using a canvas format.
You might be able to get higher quality from other printers, though at a higher price. I did try some other possible printer that would have avoided the need to edit the images (they had a mirror option for the canvas wrapping), but it was significantly more expensive, so I didn't do that.
Also, I think @user@domain, but I don't know if it notifies the user yet.
Someone hired the dude from Fired On Mars to make these posters.
Is the show any good? I like the premise but I'm scared it's gonna be a bad execution.
I really liked the recent version. It was pretty slow building, kinda difficult to get through the first couple episodes but then it got better and better towards the end.
Nice, thanks!
