One of the weird guys who come to a small grocery store without a shirt and start screaming at the poor cashier when they don’t sell a very specific brand of tar shampoo. I’d say you did quite well indeed.

Zaros@lemmy.worldto Art Share🎨@lemmy.world•The Turbinid-dragons from Made In Abyss are one of my fave creature designs ever, so I drew one! (WIPs, Paint Tool SAI file, and full resolution artwork in description)English2·1 year agoSome thumbnails work for me, others don’t. Either way, that’s a creepy dragon! I like it.
The green-black things remind me of ‘black metal’ in Valheim, collected as scrap metal from some goblin creatures. It’s now my headcanon that this is what their civilization was like before its collapse. They use fire magic too, which also fits.
This might honestly be one of my favorite paintings I’ve seen. I’ve never wanted to have any art on my walls, but I actually wouldn’t mind falling asleep looking at this. The moon (?) is a nice touch as well, makes the whole a lot more interesting.
I don’t know why exactly, but I find this absolutely adorable.
If you look at this long enough, you’ll start seeing tadpoles.
Zaros@lemmy.worldto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Hot Take: Stop Recommending Windows-y Linux Distros1·1 year agoIn general and if you don’t know the person you’re making the recommendation to, agreed. But I know several people I’d definitely recommend (and have recommended) Arch to as the first distro. Even just the installation process is so educational, it’s a worthy starting point, after some general youtube videos perhaps. If someone just wants to take Linux for a quick test drive, Arch definitely isn’t the way to go.
Although, I’ll admit I’m not sure how to describe the type of people I’d recommend it to. If their interest is less practical, and more theoretical. Or if they get really into their hobbies and like to tinker and poke at things to see what happens. Or if they just have an endless curiosity and need to understand. Surprisingly many people I know fall into these categories.
That was pretty much me when I first decided to try installing Arch… at 2am.
Zaros@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Price of electricity in Finland peaks at 2.35€/kWh today. Keeping my tiny granny cottage warm costs me over 50 euros for a single day. It's negative 25C (-13F) outside.English122·2 years agoOlder houses definitely have them… but there was this trend at some point to renavate older houses and remove the oil heaters and fireplaces and wood heated saunas, and replace everything with electric ones. Why? No idea, trends are weird.
Why does anyone need any temperature? I find it most comfortable! I’ve also noticed sleep is a lot better when the air is a bit cooler. Anything above 18°C just makes me feel uncomfortably warm.
I like to keep my home at 16°C (60.8°F) when possible. Summers are hell.

Zaros@lemmy.worldto Android@lemmy.world•How does everyone feel about Oneplus phones?English1·2 years agoI stopped reading out of habit as soon as I got to the “award winning design” and “form factor”. Such marketing buzzwords are usually a good sign telling me that part of the text has no valuable information and should be skipped.
I hadn’t even noticed this habit and I have no idea when it started. I wonder what other subconscious reading optimizations I’ve made, and how they might impact the type of information I read without me realizing it…
I’ve been seeing some of that, but there are apparently also a ton of bots being created for who knows what reason and that’s spooky. (it made the user count jump up in hundreds of thousands) Can’t say I know much about that, but I’d imagine it’ll cause some issues sooner than later…
