southsamurai, to movies in The DCEU ends not with a bang, but a wimper.
@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

Hopes? None. Warner Bros. has no fucking clue how to use DC characters and ideas in theaters. They may get lucky with specific movies being decent, but the best movies are not even as good as the worst of the animated movies and series. They keep throwing money and names at live action, instead of focusing on telling good stories that stay true to the essence of the characters.

I don’t see Gunn doing any better tbh. For one, he’s going to be hamstrung by whatever Warner decides is the goal. For another, he’s going to end up limited by whatever flawed view executives have of the servers characters. And then he still may not have a grasp of what either comics fans or non comic fans need from a movie featuring DC characters.

southsamurai, to linux in I feel like I'm missing out by not distro-hopping
@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

If you want to enjoy distro hopping, go find a cheap thinkpad as a secondary device, and have fun. Otherwise, you try out live discs/drives to see if you get full compatibility with your main device.

Truth is that you’ll have more difference in user experience DE hopping than distro hopping.

You only distro hop until you find what works right with an your hardware and preferred software, unless you’re doing it as a hobby. Now, the desktop environments? That’s where you’ll see the big difference.

I dunno, he’s a little farther left. Not much, but a little.

Jfc!

southsamurai, to asklemmy in What physical features do you find attractive on a person that would be considered unattractive by your culture's beauty standards?
@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

I’ve wondered that myself. Afaik, there’s no real information about historical vision acuity beyond the extreme end where it amounts to being blind.

I have to think that some percentage of people had vision deficits that were bad enough to need glasses and from there up to being not-quite-blind. I know that we hover around 20+ percent of the world population being myopic nowadays. If it was even half that for millennia, how could that not influence damn near everything?

Man, I’m just happy to see a skyclad reference in the wild, away from a metal dedicated community :)

Edit: also, this needs a playlist so that anyone not familiar with all the albums listed can enjoy the discovery :)

southsamurai, (edited ) to asklemmy in Does tinned food have any nutrition or is it just empty calories?
@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

Well, your question as asked has the answer of yes, and then no.

Canning absolutely does not destroy or otherwise remove “nutrition” totally. And, as such, if the food that is canned was not empty calories to begin with (which is a kinda bullshit term tbh, since the only thing that covers is sugars only, and maybe fats only, which nobody cans), then the food inside the can is not empty either.

As others have said, the process of canning does break down some nutrients. However, so does cooking to some degree. But, cooking also makes some things easier to extract from the food as it goes through digestion, so it isn’t like raw things are inherently better than their cooked versions by virtue of being raw.

So, in general, canned foods are going to be “good enough” on average, when it comes to vitamins and minerals. Some things will be better than others in that regard, so you’d have to look things up as you go and figure out what is going to be reduced enough to merit going through extra effort to obtain and store frozen/raw.
