  • not my own comments, but i noticed more and more comments being downvoted for daring to say something controversial. i remember back before we had to have the "this is not a disagree button" hover text on reddit, now we don't even have that

  • we've got monitor edge barriers! the feature i missed most from windows is here i'm so pleased!

  • i doubt it, i don't see why an icon pack would have a systemd service. probably something to do with moonlight [nvidia]

    still, thank you for introducing me to a new* icon pack

  • I have to say I like this one ::: spoiler image

    :::

    kde can still look like that too:

    i really hope oxygen does get ported to plasma 6, and not dropped like the air theme has been


    i must say though, as much as i prefer the look of light themes usually, i think dark themes are objectively[^1] better unless you're in bright sunlight: images and video aren't affected by themes, so dark themes put the focus on the media, whereas light themes can wash them out

    [^1]: this is conjecture, i haven't done any studies

  • i'm so impressed you can tell the difference

    now you say it i can see a slightly different style at the front, but i did think it was just the same image with a different background

  • lemm.ee has temporarily disabled all image uploads actually, due to the csam spam (see the post on [email protected])

    /0 has recently released his ai anti-csam filter though, so hopefully they should be back soon

  • huh, i never knew star wars had those

  • i wonder if i could do that in wallpaper engine actually

    it might look a bit weird with the ships being static though

  • no i mean i have no idea which joke, you muppet

    "star city - restaurant" by JC Jongwon Park

  • i have absolutely no idea which one

  • Permanently Deleted

  • sexy, isn't she

  • ¯(ツ)/¯ plenty of people like it.

    either browse Subscribed or be prepared to block communities. do you post this under every sports team lemmysphere you don't support or city you don't live in?

    i'm not doing it to "make Lemmy look more populated", i'm doing it because i liked them on reddit and want them here.

    also there're about to be quite a few more (not made by me), so prepare yourself and your block button

  • oh this is so gorgeous! also it fits the title so well

    i can't believe i actually follow this artist but i missed this piece?

    by Ralph McQuarrie

    i love everything ralph mcquarrie has done. for those who don't know, he did most of the star wars concept art, but he's also done his own pieces too. i have seen unreliable sources claim that this is an early bespin or coruscant concept, but take that with a pinch of salt

    higher quality image, but cropped (and with the signature removed):

  • i love the reflections! they're done really well with so few brushstrokes!

  • i know

    it's not that dieselpunkish, but the scale and composition were so cool i had to post it

  • thank tywele not me!

    but if you like this, i feel duty bound to promote the entire f.n.i.c. but particularly [email protected] and [email protected]

  • nice avatar by the way, i think that's possibly their best album

    "Launch site" by Martin Parker

  • yeah you did, don't worry

    it was just a small semantic feature i happened to notice. i'm impressed you managed to get my meaning even though i apparently used the wrong phrase, though [edit: or possibly i didn't, i guess]

    "Ethan of Athos" by Peter Elson (1988)

    it's cool to see two ships meeting at an oblique angle! normally in space they just conveniently happen to align with each other

    used as an alternative cover of "Ethan of Athos" by Lois McMaster Bujold

    "A Deepness in the Sky" by Boris Vallejo (2000)

    used for the cover of vernor vinge's "A Deepness in the Sky"

    now to me this looks quite a bit older than 2000; but that's what isfdb says, and who am i to argue?

    "Painting Spaceships" by Daniel McGarry

    such a nice shade of blue. i like ships that have a bit more of an interesting palette than silver or white (like the freighters in ftl)

    "廃墟街の教会" by もの久保 (MonoKubo)

    「神の在不在はさておき、これだけでも大したものですね」

    「俺の村では祈りの場そのものも信仰対象だった。神様の姿を知る人間は限られていたし、実際信仰に足る代物だった」

    「確かにあれは神の御業といった感じでしたね」

    「だからみんな死んだ」

    which, google translated, comes out as:

    church in ruins

    “Aside from the existence or absence of God, this alone is a big deal.”

    "In my village, the place of prayer itself was an object of worship. There were only a limited number of people who knew the appearance of God, so it was actually something worthy of belief."

    “It certainly felt like the work of God.”

    "That's why everyone died."

    honestly american diesel/electric trains look so weird, but particularly cab-centre ones

    wikipedia says "painted for a 1949 calendar", but i've found an image of it used on a calendar that says 1935/6:
