I will say all the filipino memes I see are all using tagalog with the latin alphabet. Never seen this alphabet before.

Carlos also cancelled a more immediate $7 billion business plan with Starlink, which makes it closer to 30 billion lost.

Depth of field and chromatic aberration are pretty cool if done right.

Depth of field is a really important framing tool for photography and film. The same applies to games in that sense. If you have cinematics/cutscenes in your games, they prob utilize depth of field in some sense. Action and dialogue scenes usually emphasize the characters, in which a narrow depth of field can be used to put focus towards just the characters. Meanwhile things like discovering a new region puts emphasis on the landscape, meaning they can use a large depth of field (no background blur essentially)

Chromatic aberration is cool if done right. It makes a little bit of an out of place feel to things, which makes sense in certain games and not so much in others. Signalis and dredge are a few games which chromatic aberration adds to the artstyle imo. Though obviously if it hurts your eyes then it still plays just as fine without it on.

I wouldn't mind the stock market exploding if the economy didn't also follow suit

It's absolutely bull that the entire country has to deal with this shit when the stock market drops while only the rich benefits when the stock market does good.

Well hopefully with the impending economic downturn the US will get their shit together... Right?

Does anyone else's search on lemmy actually work as expected? I feel like it never finds anything really relevant. I can search for audio interfaces for example and all the first results are about software in general and not actually the hardware component.

Most of the US is a culture pot so the food I like is not really local.

The only things I can think of as a state famous thing is that San Francisco, California is known for sourdough, and Seattle, Washington is kinda known for the Seattle (Hot) Dog.

When you can't trust the people online you interact with to be a real person or not, it's hard to interact within the internet.

Sure, you can find real human connections by "touching grass", but the internet shouldn't be a monotonous landscape solely for consumption and not interaction. It was not built for that, and shouldn't ever be.
