Very interesting, thank you for the explanation.
Edit: is that just for defederation or also when I block an instance on my account?

It looks like it’s this page:
I’m pretty sure it doesn’t block the users; I blocked the NSFW Lemmy, whatever the big one is, because of how much porn would be on the All feed otherwise. I was surprised to see a post or comment from someone whose account was on that instance a few weeks ago, but it wasn’t anything I didn’t want to see so overall I was glad the users are still able to participate elsewhere if that’s what they want.
I like that clicking on the instance shows the reason given (if any) for each defederation.
That’s a good point since I think the lactose intolerance becomes an issue in the intestines. The person you’re replying to might want to consult with a doctor.
Given that reel to reel tape recording of television didn’t begin until the 1950s I’m going to say they didn’t. The only way they recorded back then was pointing a film camera at the TV, but this couldn’t really be used for rebroadcast, so I’m guessing a lot of these early TV broadcasts weren’t recorded.
Lactase enzyme tablets are relatively cheap and easy to carry at least a few around at all times
The color people will tell you that cyan and magenta do not equal red and blue. My university advisor tricked me into taking a 400 level class from the college of art and design on color theory. Really interesting class but an insane amount of work. Very early on the professor told us to throw out any book that identified red, yellow, and blue as the primary colors. It’s red, green, blue for light or cyan, magenta, yellow for pigment.
I’ve never been a fan of IPAs and don’t think I’ve ever bought one on its own, but I’ve enjoyed a lot of other local craft brews. I think we’ve had a few local breweries close, but others still open.
It still ends up being more work than I’d hoped for (which was 0), but certainly less than staying clean shaven. That and my wife really likes it are my two biggest reasons.
Wait the craft beer bubble burst?
glad that our generation 1 product even has a chance against a $457.18 billion industry
we capture even 1% of that and we win
I mean, yeah, just about any product should be able to celebrate if they were able to hit $4.5 billion in sales. That’s still a big number. But here’s the thing: capturing 1% in that market still will be really hard. Getting 0.1% would be something to celebrate for a first-gen product from a startup. Getting 0.01% should probably be something to celebrate, and if that’s too small of a number to be celebrating then your company’s probably going to fail.
My wife would technically be Gen X while I’m a Millennial. We’re 6 years apart but there’s still a lot of overlap in life experiences.
That’s not…
You know what, yes, that’s exactly how it works. If you don’t look good in pictures that definitely means you look amazing in person!
I’ve really never seen someone who looks good in video but not still images or vice versa. The only way I could really see that is if someone only has one or two good angles but looks odd in the rest, so video would be more likely to reveal the bad angles.
I was in college for TV production almost 20 years ago, and this was the same time Facebook was just launching and only available to college kids. Between pictures on Facebook and looking at videos of my classmates in our projects, I was surprised to discover that the girls I thought looked best in person didn’t usually look as good on the monitors, and the girls that looked best on screen usually didn’t look as good in person. This carried through to my TV career. I noticed basically no one looked quite the same on screen as they did in person; some were better on screen, some were better in person, some looked good in both but they still looked a little different between the two of them.
I’m not sure what exactly causes the difference but suspect there’s a bit that comes from lighting, makeup, and angles, but mostly it comes from the lens. There’s a distortion that comes from the lens depending on the angle of the lens (wide-angle to telephoto) but also there tends to be a flattening of features through the lens. A lot of times the people who look good facing a camera have very pronounced features (prominent cheek bones, longer nose, lips that protrude more, etc.) but they don’t look pronounced in the image, they look pretty normal. In real life, though, they often look a little odd because the features are so pronounced. Conversely people who look good in person often seem to have flatter features in an image, which can look a little dull.
Some of that can be addressed with lighting and makeup, to help show better depth, but that takes a lot of time and equipment and especially for TV news that often isn’t available. A still photographer might have more options for that, so maybe that’s where someone could look good in a photo but not a video.
The only other area I could see someone being better in a photo than video is someone who looks good with the distortion of the extreme wide angle of a phone’s selfie camera. If they’re mostly taking pictures with that they might not seem as good in other media with more normal lenses.
All in all, it made me discount pictures in trying to decide if someone’s attractive or not. I’d rather look better in person than in a photo, and I’d rather be with a partner who looks better in person than a photo.
I’ve never seen someone who looks good in photos but not videos, but I suppose it could happen if they only have one or two really good angles. Most people look different through a camera lens or in real life, though, some better in one or the other, some good in both, but still different.
I mean, you don’t need to be in the US to sell to Americans. It would help with the shipping fees, but you can also find third parties to be a US warehouse/fulfillment center.
It even says as much in the bonus text!
Any TL;DR for what RuPaul has to do with “fracking” or a quick link? Is this even talking about the fracking used for fossil fuel production or is this something LGBTQ-related?
Oh I remember that, that was awful. He specifically wanted to kill children.
