  • hi and welcome! i'm 1 month old here and also love it. great community, good conversation abd spez is slowly fading into the rear view mirror little by little each day.

  • My Instacart shopper is making some wild changes.

    Jump

  • hopefully whatever you were making with that sour cream will survive the beef rawhide replacement 🤣

  • Brand new to the hobby. First print, I hd no idea how good resin minis can get!

    Jump

  • really nice! may i please ask what printer you're using and whether you'd recommend it?

  • welcome to you and everyone else coming over! looking forward to great shenanigans.

  • What are your go-to websites/chefs for recipes?

    Jump

  • brian lagerstrom on youtube is in high rotation in my house. he came from kitchens and researches his recipes really well. my only quibble is that his delivery style is a little frantic but easily solved if you crank the video speed down to 90% or grab his recipes directly from his website

  • Reddit refugees on Lemmy, how you guys liking lemmy so far?

    Jump

  • yes as everyone has said i like it here - engaged more here in 2 weeks than in 5 years on reddit. everyone seems nicer and you get the sense fills are genuinely trying to help build this community by getting out of their comfort zone and contribute. ❤️

  • Which historical event best represents the saying "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes"?

    Jump

  • spez fucking with 3rd party developers, mods and fucking down on lies to the community.

  • What are some of the best purchases of your life?

    Jump

  • i also struggled with the idea of paying for this but tbh after using it for over a year now, i don't have a problem.

    we live in a place with micro climates where there temps can swing widely at night from day to day & the auto pilot does small fine tuning based on a number of things. this for me at least is worth $10 a month.

    compare & contrast with the oura ring which requires a $5/mo sub to get any useful insight out of it - without the subscription you only get how long you slept witha proprietary sleep score that has no insight behind it. after spending a few hundred dollars for the ring this really started to piss me off.

    at least with the 8 sleep bed the device is actually performing / working for me vs just giving me data.

    the 8 bed also gives you much of the same data oura does so the subscription just hits differently for me.

    finally if you're thinking about this - definitely consider the cover vs the full mattress. same tech and they way they've designed it makes it fit beautifully on your existing setup at ~ $1k less than the mattress combo 😊

  • my sleep 8 heading/cooling bed last year. was tired of sleeping crappy, had tried just about everything from supplements to saunas, exhausted all other ideas ... out of desperation decided to throw down for it.

    seriously life changing. no matter what temp the room is at the bed is always perfect. takes a while for the auto pilot to learn your likes but when it does ... oh man.

    much love for my smart mattress ❤️

  • Is 22 too old to start studying computer science?

    Jump

  • not at all. i fell into computing in my mid 20s. somehow i managed to learn enough to get myself hired at one of the largest technology companies in the world where i've now been over 20 years.

    has it been easy? definitely not. without that classic computer science degree my peers have i've had to be scrappier and move faster to be on top of emerging tech where the playing field is a little more equal. i can this "surfing" the tech.

    since i started i've participated in the birth of the internet, mobile, public cloud, big data, startups and now ai.

    if you love it you can make it happen - just be realistic and stay scrappy ❤️

  • Reddit users lost?

    Jump

  • this ^^. even if we peel off 5% in a relatively even scrape across all the interests that's enough content for me to scratch the itch daily.

  • 52 Weeks of Baking

  • awesome- very exciting and thank you 😊

  • Why IBM got a reputation of destroying everything they touch?

    Jump

  • fwiw i work with a bunch of former ibmers.

    super super nice people who are crazy smart.

    but think something in their brains got wired differently when they worked there - they just build all sorts of amazing stuff without thinking about the strategy for it. who will use it, in what scenarios, how will it be supported once interest surpasses cycles of the creator.

    not all indicative of the companies history or current reputation but interesting to see at the micro level

  • Your favorite 3D-printed things for the shop?

    Jump

  • i keep going back and forth trying to justify a 3dp - think you've just convinced me :) any pointers on a good setup to do what you're doing here?

  • Scroll moar

    Jump

  • funny but admit that even with less users and less content here my dopamine hit actually happens faster in lemmy.

    thank you all for great content ❤️

  • What hardware are you using for your self-hosted lemmy instance?

    Jump

  • shower thoughts... and still on my first cup of coffee to more just musing than anything ...

    if storage is the concern wonder if the lemmy roadmap might one day include an option to use cloud based storage?

    azure storage at .06/gb per month is likely cheaper and more redundant than local storage - even if you factor in calls to the blob which could be lowered via caching.

    cloud storage potentially might one day lead to a option for smaller self hosters to opt into a shared blob instance where the and cost is shared.

    in this scenario security to ensure the cloud blob couldn't be deleted would need to be thought through (maybe splitting the password among multiple admins with each having one part of the whole?) but might be one way to better encourage more self hosting for them compute side of things.

  • good grief. further proof that social media platforms controlled by one corporate entity are dangerous.
