Glad I added it to the URL blocklist a while ago. Fuck PBC

This has been on my todo list since the blender 4.0 donut tutorial came out like a year ago. It's been really fun and I'm watching it an hour at a time haha (it's like 5 hours long)

Day 2 and I have sprinkles.

I have begun making the donut in blender.

Where were you while we were getting high?

Tagging @[email protected] as the picture didn't federate to pixelfed

Thanks for sharing. Never heard them before, but I like! They kinda remind me of The Stone Roses, which I really like and need to listen to now

I love this track so much that it got stuck in my head for a week when I listened to it for the first time haha

Almost reminds me of Pink Floyd for some reason.

That's why I like them so much! They're kinda like an Australian Pink Floyd that still produces music. Although most people just know them as the "Under The Milky Way" guys, which was their one hit wonder.

I really recommend "A Face In A Film", "Destination", and "Field Of Mars" from The Church if you liked this :)

The keyboard is coming along nicely and improving the ergonomics of your setup can definitely be a hobby. I'm sure you'll have a better typing experience in no time.

Gamedev is really cool and I need to get back into it properly! Your joy with it made me install godot and add learning how to use it on my TODOs. Hopefully the next hyperfocus I can reason my brain into following a tutorial for it.

Those banana peels you posted look really cool! I've never thought to cook with them before.

Gardening's really fun. I miss having a garden and can't wait to have a front or backyard when I move. For some reason I get lots of cool insects come inside over the year. I keep getting praying mantises flying inside this time of year, with the last time one stealthy laying eggs by the windowsill. Later I had dozens of "ants" on the windows until I noticed they were actually baby mantises!

This is the first weekly thread since I've become an admin here. Just wanted to briefly update everyone on things.

There is a veganhomecooks (veganhomecooks.com) Pixelfed instance. It is able to federate images here as posts by mentioning the lemmy community in the body. (i.e. appending @[email protected] to a pixelfed post caption will make a post on the [email protected] community).

Unfortunately, under normal circumstances, comments only federate from lemmy to Pixelfed and not the other way around. I have developed two scripts that I periodically run to resolve the veganhomecooks comments and index them here, but it is a somewhat manual process as the Pixelfed instance doesn't allow scrapping (you need to be logged in to see the content). Rarely, this fails to work, so almost all the veganhomecooks comments can be seen here on vegantheoryclub. There is an issue with deletions not federating both sides, but it can be manually done if need be.

In my opinion, I think Pixelfed is not really fun to use as it lack even basic features like federating text only posts. I know it's meant to be for visual media only, but if a mastodon user can follow you and comment on your pictures and federate their own to you then I don't see the appeal of purposefully not receiving any of their other text posts. Mastodon feels like it can do much, if not all, of what Pixelfed can do, and more. Pleroma, Akkoma, and Misskey having even more functionality and interoperability than mastodon. I just wish it was a configuration option (that worked) to enable text only content, I really fail to see how it would undermine the experience of using Pixelfed or add much in the way of complexity to the project scope.

I'm curious if anyone else has any opinions about Pixelfed yet. I've only discovered text posts don't federate after making an account and using it so my expectations may be out of scope, but I don't see the appeal of this considering federation is a core part of why it's used.
