Obviously we movie goers aren't making the kinds of movies we want to see. We need to be the change and be the movie makers which we have no experience, skill or possibility of being. It's so simple that it's fucking crazy.

I went to a Bernie rally in 2015. It was by far (by a wide, wide margin) the best attended political rally we'd ever had in Idaho. It was at the college stadium and I chose to stand in the crowd nearest the podium. That was cool. But, I was standing in line for two hours and then the rally was about three hours. The standing floor at the rally was really crushed in so you don't have personal space and you can't really shift your weight and relax muscles. So, I recommend getting a chair if they're available. I was getting so fatigued I was having a hard time enjoying it. I would totally do it again. But I'd head for seating.

You can run your Jellyfin connection inside of Kodi which has a ton of configuration options like the volume control.

I've been pretty excited about what I've been seeing from Affinity. You're right, they're not there yet. But they're closer than anyone. They need more money and time and they will hopefully get there.

I want to point out, because I see this chart or something like it a lot. Adobe has an absolute monopoly in the professional design space. None of these programs can remotely come close to the creative suite if you're doing more than tinkering. If you're making memes or doing some personal image manipulation, you can get by with GIMP or something. If you're creating professional art or creating files for print or publication, you need Adobe. It's scary that one corporation holds so much sway over an entire industry but they definitely do.

Too fucking late. I've already installed Bluefin on two machines and Bazzite on my gaming machine. I'm not going back.

Great reference. Also, you can do gifs in Lemmy. Not sure if everyone knows that or not.

Damn, Thanos! We are overpopulated, I agree. But human numbers have always (and I do mean always, as long as we've been able to track it) adjusted to the sustainability of their environment given all but the most dire of economic factors that might affect that. Right now, we're seeing a rapid decline in children being born throughout the world. Just because it doesn't happen on a particular time table doesn't mean it's not correcting itself.

I didn't see anyone saying that but the correct response is: in the next billing cycle we're going to start charging X amount per month for X amount of traffic or we have to bump you to to the next tier.

If things are so dire that the traffic is causing problems the correct response is to throttle certain domain traffic until it gets figured out in some way.

Pay X amount in 24 hours or we remove you entirely is extortion.
