This was a neat read, thanks for sharing!

Interesting story, thanks for sharing!

I see more engagement across my Lemmy feeds every week. It’s definitely smaller and slower here but there are real relationships and communities forming. I think the fediverse is strongly positioned to outlive and maybe even outgrow closed social ecosystems. If you’re frustrated with a lack of a certain kind of content on Lemmy make it your responsibility to go create or share some of that content.

Geocities, Myspace, Digg, Reddit all started somewhere. I think any good underlying framework (federated social networks) that enables strong communities will always stand a chance. I really do get early reddit vibes on here.

Been waiting for this

yeah this some fake justice porn shit

I had the opportunity once to see Curiosity modeled in a VR environment as if you were standing on Mars next to it and I remember how very surprised I was at how big it was.

As a fun side note now that you’ve jogged my memory. That same demo also had a model of the Rosetta spacecraft orbiting Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. For whatever reason it was sized so that the asteroid comet was about the size of a cat and I will never forgot watching that itty bitty little satellite orbit around that odd shaped asteroid comet in front of me.

you answered my question before I could even ask, thanks for sharing!

I use the Bash Cookbook quite a bit and do recommend it if you’re going to spend a lot of time in the shell. Thanks for sharing!

great project getting better all the time!

Also Mac here. I started with a linux laptop but still have to do some desktop support work for the company and since they all use Mac it’s just easier to dogfood it. At least I have a decent terminal emulator.

is liddle monke!

Let’s go

I just want to say how much I appreciate this reply. No idea how factual it is but I really dig the detailed and thoughtful response, thanks for sharing!

This is, by far, the best insult I’ve seen all year

That’s fantastic

really appreciate you reporting back, thanks for sharing!

You are incredible, thank you so much for sharing!

Such a neat piece of software, I remember streaming internet radio (somafm) and trying out different skins on my windows xp laptop back in the early 2000’s and just feeling like the cyberpunk future had arrived. Milkdrop was my gateway drug. Fun seeing it make a comeback, I hope it develops a healthy community and we get some good software out of it. Internet drama be damned.

Proud of you both, be good to each other and have a great time. Thanks for sharing your lovely story!

Seriously, some solid snack game there, they fucking missed out
