Hey thanks. Not that I could afford even the "cheap" one, but that's less than I expected. I'm watching some videos of it and, at the very least, it's a beautiful machine.

> Leica Cine 1 Didn't even know there was such a thing... Knowing Leica cameras, I'm afraid to ask about the price. Well, like they say: if you have to ask... :)

In my case the reason is to exercise. I really like it as an exercise. Though I also practice the other strokes for more variety, and fun, when I'm short of time butterfly is my ch…

Seems like it. I regularly see photos of people's gaming setups/battlestations and hobby rooms, and it's not rare to see posters of cars. Though it's more common to see smaller fra…

I've always thought than on Reddit (or Digg, or Lemmy or others) common words, brands, names... should be broad "topics" or categories that nobody can claim (first come, first serv…

> my Sony g shock What is a "Sony g shock" if you don't mind? I know Casio's G-Shock and Sony's Sports series... did you mix them by chance as I suppose or is there a Sony range I'…

Same. I have 4 browsers, 2 of them loaded to the teeth and the other 2 untouched since installation, one of them the one that I use for "mandatory" stuff or that you really need it…

Love this. I once (2017 I think) made a card game based around MS-DOS with elements of Crazy Eights which I called Crazy DOS (shortened C:DOS) but got zero attention so I moved on.…

But you don't have to charge this one! (because you can't) :D

UT2003 was the first online multiplayer game I ever played, and I played it a lot, mostly at the office with coworkers; we then moved to UT2004. So, so many fond memories of both. …

Not that it'll happen, or at least I haven't heard of it, but I'd love for MiniDiscs to also make a comeback (not that they ever were that popular), and see new releases in that fo…

Thanks, TIL.

Sorry for the tangential, but as a non-native English speaker, and still learning... this really caught my attention: "grows smaller". It looks like a kind of contradiction. Is it …

Among others (e.g.: "trans fatty acid"), in this particular case either "today's featured article" or "the f**ing article". I guess the latter.

This along blows my mind: I picture this bin bang and everything expanding from that point and... that everything is now a sphere. In my mind. But it isn't? Yes, I know next to not…

> This looks like what web developers have been waiting literally decades for. Count me in. Most times it didn't matter to me but there were some cases when I wanted or needed them…

Ah, I was imagining something way more complex and wilder, with electronics and LEDs and what not :D But that's cool too, if simpler, nice way to track stuff. Thanks for explaining…

I'm specifically intrigued by that loading bar with magnetic blocks.

Nor mine. I mostly sub to small niche topics and there's hardly anything political. Large subs on the other hand...

I've watched Requiem for a Dream a couple times and you got me curious about the commentary, so I'll try to get a copy. Thanks for the unexpected tip.

Younger. As someone who never could afford a computer as a kid or teen, and not much people around me had one either, while I felt really really attracted to them and to tech in ge…

It'd be nice if, at the very least, they were asked to be upfront and put a "sponsored" disclaimer on titles so we could make an informed choice.

I don't know what it takes at the scale of something like Wikipedia, but at my own scale, a single/self-employed developer, yes, hosting costs are a small part, but then I have to …

Why is it that every time I read something like this my whole body feels itchy? Or when I read about lice I feel an urge to scratch my head? Like, is there a term for this? Some ar…

They just want to brag about it, I guess. Like with photos of their meals and... well, lots of things. To each their own, but I stopped attending most shows mainly because of the a…
