movies@piefed.social•'Spaceballs': New Mel Brooks, Josh Gad Movie Sets April 2027 ReleaseEnglish
315·6 days agoAh yes, more nostalgiaslop. Just what we needed. Vote with your wallet folks: do not go watch this in cinemas!

Casual Conversation@piefed.social•I just watched Project Hail Mary in the theater... First movie I ever seen in a theater... What movies have you seen in theaters? Or do you have a home theater? Or just watch on tv/laptop?English
21·9 days agoI’ve seen many. Personally I like going to movie theaters because it is a great way to vote with your wallet. Many movies coming out these days are pure nostalgiaslop; remakes or sequels nobody asked for. I will not under any circumstances pay to see them. But I will happily pay to see something new and original. Most recently I’ve seen “Lee” and “Juror #2” which were both absolutely wonderful. I am eyeing Project Hail Mary too!
Yeah no doubt this is probably old news for some, but since I’m not in the habit of browsing stock photos, it took a bit longer for me :)
I thought that was some sort of scar/tattoo initially, but yeah it looks to be an interpretation of hair. For me the first giveaway was the neck protection thingy, it is asymmetrical, has nonsensical half-existing symbols, and it has a pointy thing on the right.

Games•Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your gameEnglish
101·24 days agoI think you misunderstand OP’s point then. The complaint is not just about the result, but also very much about the direction. The fact that, if Nvidia chooses to pursue this, games running on their GPUs may all be visually tampered with in a way that ignores the creator’s intent and the user’s wish. Could you imagine a world where every game looks exactly the same and uses the same fake faces? It would be incredibly dulling and boring, in my opinion.
Not only that, but puts on tinfoil hat this might enable Nvidia to insert their own desired images into games. Ads or propaganda insertion into our escapism is not too far fetched, and given how unprofitable AI is, it would be an easy way to suddenly make it profitable.
Roll20. I play D&D twice a week, and the paid features (increased storage & dynamic lighting) are absolutely worth it. It’s not even super expensive; just $60/year. Totally worth it for how often I use it!
If you haven’t done so yet, the next time you start the game, stay in the start menu for a while
:)
Moreover, the absolute determination to finish what they started is horrifying. Even as they were losing the war in '43 and '44, they still used their precious locomotives and resources to continue killing over, say, moving troops or resources around. That level of tenacity is, to my knowledge, rare in the history of genocide. Please do correct me if I am wrong though!

Home Video (VHS, DVD, Blu-ray, 4k)@feddit.uk•20th Century Studios will be releasing "Fight Club" on 4K Ultra HD on May 12
5·2 months agoI initially judged it by just the title and thought it was some action flick. It is not; it’s much better. Would indeed recommend, and please go in blind!
Prague! Went there last September and had a great time. Beautiful and very walkable city, friendly people, and very affordable too. The city castle is an impressive site to behold, and one of the most touristy ones, but very doable if you go in the morning. But there are many other notable things to do and visit, such as the cold-war bunker under the Yalta hotel and the alchemy museum in the Jewish district. If you decide to visit, I would also recommend branching out for a couple of days to visit other cities like Pilsen (where pilsner beer comes from) or Liberec.

2·2 months agoMy two all-time favourite videogames, one of them kinda obscure and the other very obscure: What Remains of Edith Finch and Kentucky Route Zero respectively.
What Remains of Edith Finch is a ~2 hour story where you explore your family home as Edith Finch. The Finch family has had a lot of bad luck, and most of its members do not get old. As Edith, you explore the house room by room to see the respective person’s last moments. It’s not a horror game, though I should put a trigger warning for child and infant mortality for the game. Play it in a single sitting, treat it as an interactive movie. I cannot recommend it enough.
The other one, Kentucky Route Zero, is a bit harder to recommend to a general audience. The synopsis is as follows: Conway drives deliveries for an antiques shop, the last one he will ever do as the shop is closing down. On his way to his destination, he asks for directions, and is told he needs to take Kentucky highway 0, an underground highway with a hidden entrance. As the game goes on, we explore the mysterious underground world of Kentucky, with its strange inhabitants and culture, and expand our cast of characters along the way. I honestly cannot give a more accurate description of it without giving stuff away. This game has no puzzles or interesting game mechanics. You cannot alter the story much either. What it offers, though, is a glimpse into a surreal world filled with hope, longing, loss, regret, and, most of all, mystery. The game will not answer all your questions. There is no grand reveal before the curtain closes. You can puzzle things together from your exploration only.
I think that, for many people, it will be quite boring. But it pushes buttons for me that no other media I have encountered does. It is best played at night if you’re tired, as the whole game kind of feels like a weird dream that you struggle to recall as you wake up. If that sounds up your alley, well, here you go.

3·2 months agoI went into the show blind and it was definitely outside of the typical stuff that I watch, but I enjoyed it a lot!
Either way it’s also a self-own on the nazi’s part lol
qwertee.com has great t-sirt designs, but many can also be bought as stickers!
Seconding bazzite here. If you want to “get to know Linux” you might want to consider something else, but if you just want a well-running system with minimal use of the command line, Bazzite is an amazing option. I’ve been using it since August last year, and have only had to use the command line once in that time. Which isn’t a problem for me, but it may be a bit daunting for others (and that is totally fine!).

news@lemmings.world•Trump says he will revoke church tax exempt status if leaders 'say something bad about' himEnglish
7·2 months agoMy initial reaction was also “I 100% approve of this” but we shouldn’t forget that he will only go after churches that are actually doing something useful, like collecting clothes and donations for the poor, as the people running those churches are generally opposed to trump. Don’t think those evangelical maga-preaching megachurches, which are much more problematic, will ever be targeted by him.
I’m sorry to hear you are in this situation. There’s some great suggestions here already that I am also saving for myself, and I though it high time to talk about our national dish; stamppot.
Stamppot is a dutch family of dishes that are very simple to make. In essence, it is boiled potatoes, mixed with vegetables and mashed. A little bit of butter/oil to make it smoother. Traditionally eaten with small pieces of bacon mashed through and sausage on the side, but you can also add spices like rosemary + thyme, nutmeg, turmeric + cumin, or even cheese to bring it to taste.
Typical vegetables/combos:
- kale
- carrots + onions (1-1 ratio)
- sauerkraut
- lambs lettuce + 1 hard-boiled egg
- spinach But many vegetables can be used. Some vegetables need to be cooked with the potatoes (the kale, carrots, and onions) and some added after boiling and removing the water (sauerkraut, labs lettuce, spinach). You can even combine vegetables if you wish. Honestly, the sky is the limit.
