  • I want contrast

    Sure, but you can also have contrast with a dark background that isn’t constantly shooting a third of the photons your screen can generate (or more, since in some screens blue pixels are the largest), and the most energetic at that, at your eyes… high contrast themes tend to have a black background (not a gray one like most dark themes) precisely as a way to maximise contrast…

    (It was even worse when we sat all day in front of a fucking particle accelerator, of course; frankly, as much as I loved CRTs’ ability to work with multiple resolutions I don’t know how we didn’t all end up going blind…)






  • This actually made me change my mind up to the possibility of feeding cats a vegan diet from being unacceptable to being an acceptable practice.

    And this is why misinformation should never be allowed in public platforms.

    Cats are going to die in agony because the mods folded and gave the lunatics free reign to spread their nonsense and convince gullible people.

    Between this and the far right disinformation bot at this point the only reasonable solution is for other instances to defeferate lemmy.world to quarantine the infection.



  • Nah. Frieren’s appearance and behaviour are straight from the manga, which isn’t that kind of book (seriously, the author just wanted to write about an unassuming elf John Wicking demons and accidentally turned it into a great story about death, and friendship, and whatnot) and only ever uses raunchiness in humorous contexts (the clothes dissolving potion, Flamme’s “secret seduction technique”, Fern constantly considering everyone a pervert, and so on).

    This isn’t Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid (though that also accidentally turned out deeper than what it was supposed to be, which in that case was smut).

    What Madhouse clearly are into in any case is feet (seriously, this show looks like a Tarantino film at times). Serie’s, especially. And Übel’s armpits, for some reason. Both of those are much more present in the anime than the books (also, excellent animation, like the fights or the dance scene, which in the books are usually just a couple panels; that’s probably not a fetish, though).
