Wow. This is awesome! Nice work.

Hmm. This is a good start. I feel like it needs to better express the feeling of being a squishy human, being ground up in the relentless and uncompromising gears of the machine. Maybe throw some gears lubricated with blood on that badboy...

What beliefs or values were you raised with that you think are most disconnected from reality?

In your opinion, what is the most harmful aspect of FLDS towards individuals and towards society at large?

Oh. Yeah that makes sense. I forgot about that saying. Reads awkwardly though when they re-arrange it like that...

Wtf does "as path paves forward" mean?

Nobody has mentioned Blue Isle Studios yet. I played Valley, which is a single player, story/mystery driven game played in a wilderness setting with some cool movement mechanics. I can certainly recommend it if that sounds interesting to you. Their newer games are horror (slender man) or multiplayer pvp games that don't get great reviews and aren't my jam so I haven't tried them but Valley was great.

Where the fuck is the video? Is it just not loading properly on my phone or is this really just a dogshit article about a video without even a link to the video so I can judge for myself?

And as suspected this interaction just reads to me as a dumbass old whete guy clumsily trying to compliment a young girl's hair and make her feel good about herself. Yes, it was awkward and tasteless but I don't believe for a second that he was thinking "buy her" as in slavery terms. I think Trump is a moron too and it irks me that he is president but everyone who is screaming "slave owner vibes" about this, is as crazy as the MAGA nuts on the other end of the spectrum.

Go ahead Lemmy, rip me a new asshole. Ya'll are so desperate to hate everything the dude does that you're out of touch with reality. No wonder he won if there are wacko's on our side calling shit like this racism.

Ooooh. That makes sense.

For now, the sector’s focus has shifted back to domestic, Mandarin-language channels and platforms like Bilibili, WeChat, and Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok.

Wait did I miss something? I thought TikTok was the chinese version of TikTok?

They are literally only talking about creating humans NOT on this world...

 

I'm looking for suggestions for programs to help manage an archive of family photos and video clips. I have a large family and a few photographers can pump out a lot of photos at family events. I've sorta become the unofficial archivist of the family as I have a lot of photos and videos myself and I've become responsible for my parent's collection as well as they are not very tech savvy.

I'm kinda distrustful of cloud storage in general so I'm kinda looking to avoid using something like Google photos or even Proton Drive. I'd also like to try and stick to open source if I can. At this point I don't think my ideal program exists but I'm going to describe it and see how close we could get. Sorry if the following sounds too much like fantasy.

Ideally I'd like a program that could synchronize a media collection across the internet to 3 or 4 different households. For one thing so that there is redundancy if something bad like a fire happens so nothing is lost, and for another thing so that those households have local access to the archive. I'm hoping I wouldn't be needing any crazy hardware for this. Something like a raspberry pie with an attached spindle Drive would be acceptable, both for low power use and small physical footprint in the houses of family members I would be asking to host these.

Ideally some program could be used to interact with the archive locally and do things like add new media, edit metadata of media that's already in the archive or just view things.

That's it, Lemmy know what you guys think!
