Same. Casino was a great intro to the more serious tone and Skyfall had great atmosphere. Had high hopes for Spectre but just didn’t click for me.

Medium roast (full city) beans from the Philippines either via Chemex, AeroPress, or if it’s warm out I’ll brew some ice coffee overnight.

All the video games magazines would do an E3 issue and I remember binging on all the game announcements and event photos. Good times

This is what I try to tell people who just want the cheapest things possible. We’re voting with our dollars what kind of world we want.

Also, shipping things across the sea burns some of the worst fuel for the environment so I’d rather buy things made here and support the local economy whenever possible.

MSFT has a $3T market cap and $60B of free cash flow each year, so I doubt they’re hurting for money. This is how “growth at all costs” incentivizes myopic decision-making and doesn’t really help foster an environment where studios are willing to take creative risks. Even when they succeed (a la Hi-Fi Rush) they’re on the perpetual chopping block.

Yeah, I agree. A-1 did a great job with it. Hoping for the same with Fate/strange Fake

86 -Eighty Six-. Been pretty good so far. I’m a fan of Hiroyuki Sawano’s music in general

“The layoffs will continue until morale improves”

$6.4B for HashiCorp on the heels of $4.6B for Apptio and $34B for Red Hat back in 2018. I wonder how long until they expect each of these acquisitions to be accretive?

Oat milk is the best alternative I’ve found. Most places offer it so I switched to oat milk lattes and haven’t gone back.

If brewing at home, there are barista versions made specifically for coffee, but the original works too.

Recently moved over to porkbun after dealing with a couple billing issues with namecheap and not getting the best customer service. Been pretty happy so far.

Growing up watching Dragon Ball and DBZ is a fond memory and definitely a reason I got into anime like many others. Thanks for sharing your creativity with the world. RIP Toriyama-san.

They also recently won a deal with Rakuten Mobile to supply RAN equipment in Japan

Terrible. Getting caught up in a geopolitical fight while you’re just trying to eke out a living. Hope their families find peace.

The area has witnessed increasingly frequent run-ins between Philippine vessels and tiny wooden fishing boats against much larger Chinese coast guard ships and what Manila says are shadowy Chinese “maritime militia” fishing vessels.

Wooden fishing boats vs. steel hull ships tells you everything about who’s the aggressor. Hope they find a resolution.

I’m glad you guys took a measured approach. This right here is the difference between a corporation and Lemmy. I can’t imagine a for-profit reversing its decision in the interest of the community unless it affected their bottom line or stock price. Hats off to the admin team for working through all these complex issues.

It physically fits but isn’t very stable. The Chemex’s glass is also a bit thin so I might hesitate pushing down hard on it since might put stress on it. I’d probably brew into a mug and dump the coffee into the Chemex if you want to serve it in that.

Hakko or Weller are usually well recommended

Jazz-themed sci-fi + Watanabe + MAPPA… I’m so hyped. Let’s jam!!!

Thanks for explaining your reasoning. I’m of the opinion that it’s better to defederate, mainly for the reasons your post already covers, but I’d stress the quality of content is/will be Lemmy’s biggest asset. I think many users (myself included) are on Lemmy to get away from the existing social media experience. Lemmy/fediverse is refreshing because it isn’t governed by a mandate to grow quarterly profits at its users’ expense; it feels like the internet in the late 90s and early 00s where people made content because it interested them rather than trying to garner views or promoting the most polarizing/inciting content (or even just downright trolling). I hope the admins can see what the risks are and take proactive steps in the interest of the community.
