TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Thanks, I hate it.
61·3 months agoIs it an actual photoshop then? This isn’t mine, and I assumed whoever did the original edit used some sort of faceswap or AI app to do it because it looked so smooth.

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Well this explains why I like both.
14·3 months agoThat is correct.

Memes@sopuli.xyz•Would you rather unionize or buy some videogames?
41·3 months agoIt’s real, but it went viral and they got a ton of backlash online for it a few years ago.
I love my Logitech G502, which I’m sure you will see recommended anywhere you look because it’s pretty popular.
I’m still using the wired version, but if I were to be in the market for a new one today, the wireless one would be the first I checked out.
They’re birds.

14·4 months agoYeah, someone gave it to me as a gift once. Might have been from thinkgeek back in the day? I can’t remember.

Voyager@lemmy.world•My settings have reset twice this month. Is it just me?English
3·4 months agoJust restarted to see, but no change. It’s not acting like the app has been fully reset: I’m still logged in. It just forgets some settings (switching back to the large cards instead of compact, combined votes vs separate, etc.). The worst of it is that my favorites list is gone, because my community subscriptions need some serious pruning. I had just slowly built the list back after it happened a week or two ago, and then it did it again by this morning.
Also do you have offload unused apps enabled?
I’m on Android, so maybe I have whatever the equivalent of that is. Although I use Voyager every day, so I’d be surprised if that got triggered.

2·4 months agoOh wait, for some reason I was picturing the votes on the post, not the buttons TO vote on a post. I think I need sleep.

1·4 months agoOh I see what you mean now. I figured it defaults to combined (at least on android), but if for some reason it’s showing you a downvote button, you can tell it to go away.

2·4 months agoThere’s a setting to view votes as total/combined or separate. I usually have it display separately and had to toggle that back as well.
(Edit: wait, is blahaj one of those instances that has downvotes turned off?)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a game you've played that you're surprised isn't really popular?
3·4 months agoChess has taken over a significant portion of my gaming time since getting into it a couple of years ago.
It’s a beautifully deep game, and it’s refreshing to be able to pour time into something with staying power that people of every age play all over the world.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Am I the only one who thinks social media has destroyed the spirit of the internet?
3·4 months agoI honestly don’t know. It’s going to be a big problem. LLMs are capable of having this exact convo we’re having without giving away the game.
Some sort of personal vouching system? Ever changing “human tests”? I’m not sure it’ll be enough.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Am I the only one who thinks social media has destroyed the spirit of the internet?
16·4 months agoEveryone clustered on like 4 websites for convenience, and then browsing the internet started to feel like wandering around different sections of the same department store: sterile, corporate, advertiser-safe, and everything’s transactional. Plus, it made it incredibly easy for any party that wants to astroturf public opinion, because now they only have to set up shop on a few sites: botting comments, infiltrating moderator positions, abusing the algorithms.
We desperately need to break the internet’s monoculture, and I think federated social media like this is a great start.








There are a lot of fakes claiming to be from that screen test, unfortunately.
But we do see him in a wig in “I, Claudius” from the 70s.
