like if you wanted to mix paint to get a color from a computer would you do the opposite of what the RGB value is? I'm confused

like if I wanted to take the RBG code R:99, G: 66, B, 33 wouldn't it look more lightful than if I mixed paint into 1 part blue, 2 part green, 3 part red? how would you paint a color code?

For decades, I've heard how Japan is a leader in robotics because they need the technology to keep care of the elderly while their birth rate drops and their workforce shrinks ("demographic collapse" in hyperbolic terms).

Now there's the viral spring gala 2026 kung fu robot performance. But I haven't seen anyone mention that immediately before the kung fu robots was a comedy sketch about robots as companions for the elderly!! I feel like this puts the kung fu robots, performing alongside real kids, in a much different light than how the paranoiac western media has covered the bots

Ich hab mich jetzt mal für eine Stunde dran gesetzt und auch mal eine Capsule aufgesetzt. Mit Agate und nem eigenen Server (und sei es nur ein VPS/Vhost) ist das verdammt schnell gemacht.

Mit erschrecken musste ich dann auch feststellen, dass beim schreiben der Seiten ich direkt die Zeit vergessen habe (zum Glück war die Pizza noch nicht im Ofen :D)

Hier ist die verwendete Serversoftware: https://github.com/mbrubeck/agate

und meine Capsule kann man hier finden: gemini://alhena.space/index.gmi

Dbzero Governance Vote Post https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/63525728

Ahoy mateys!

A few of our users have recently pointed out that a lot of the pro-Zionist accounts on the fediverse nowadays seem to come from the feddit.org instance.

But whatever the excuse happens to be, they need to do better imo. Israel is currently the most violent, fascist and genocidal nation state in the Middle East (if you exclude the US military bases there). And yet feddit.org seems to regard the Palestinians fighting against Israel’s ongoing illegal occupation of their land as the real terrorists. ....

More context

Our instance already voted to ban pro-Zionist accounts (see https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/60585441 for reference) and the rule that was implemented is here: Golden Rule #8.

As further context, you can find relevant comments and discussion in this post by a banned feddit admin in MoG (that fact they chose to post in MoG is in itself quite telling), and this post about their defederation from quokk.au over anti-semitism allegations has recently become active again. ...

Note 2: If you think feddit.org deserves a full instance ban instead, or have alternative suggestions, then please leave your comments below. If enough people think that’s the better option, then we’ll do that instead.

In the end the Post had around 70% of support by dbzer0 users, who in the comments also called for defederation.

Here is a Link to Dbzer0 instances tab https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/instances where if you go to blocked instances you can see fedddit.org is now defederated

i dont think feddit has made a post now, but when they do i will add it

I'm talking more along the lines of, having simulator games where you work in a supermarket and you get to cause as much mayhem as possible. Not in terms of just simply killing, but more like, being a very disgruntled worker in a very annoyingly noisy environment with shitty customers. That game doesn't exist to me and I wish it would.

Instead, we get more simulator games where you're at the service of the people. That's going backwards, if you ask me.

Also, I don't remember asking for armchair psychologists to come here and start dropping unasked thoughts about how to best relieve stress. Check those at the door.

If so, how do you do it? Do you use Google Play books or use apps like PDF file readers? I'm only 19 and I'm interested to start my reading hobby. Though I can also grab some books on a close bookstore nearby, I am also interested to do it digitally.

The moderators of lemmy.ml show an unwillingness to accept rational discussion and demonstrate a flawed understanding of mutual respect.

Discussion continues here

Surveillance protects people from terrorism, and sacrificing some privacy makes us safer.

Do you agree? If not, what is your counterargument?

Edit:

Among the meaningless comments made by people who are incapable of rational thinking, these few are actually meaningful and reasonable.

From @Ildsaye@hexbear.net

Surveillance gives terrorists like the US and its Zionist appendage a huge advantage, and the working class should not be surrendering its data to them without a fight.

From @artyom@piefed.social

https://gizmodo.com/reddit-meta-and-google-voluntarily-gave-dhs-info-of-anti-ice-users-report-says-2000722279

However those comments can only prove Surveillance are unacceptable in America and Zionist related countries, Can anyone provide a counterpoint for other countries like Russia, China, India, Japan, South Korea...

Dollar Tree stores, when they were a dollar.

Yeah it was a very nice point in time when you were tight on a budget and there was dollar tree near you, everything very affordable. Not everything was built to last and most of the food were arguably unhealthy but you got by with what you could get. Nowadays, we've seen Dollar Tree turn into just any dollar store you could think of.

24/7 Wal-Marts

It's been a while but there was that time Wal-Mart was opened for 24 hours. This allowed you to shop at 2 in the morning, in a big store, with next to no one. Sure some of the services might not be available but that isn't the point. And maybe it disgruntled a lot of overnight workers who're trying to get the store ready for the normal period of the day, now having anything disrupted and so few people to cover the store.

Video Games that were shipped in complete versions

Back when developers actually had to make sure that what they're shipping out to be played, was both good and functioning. Now everyone lately is so quick to release games that breaks on Day 1, require lots of patches that take weeks to even years, slapping on Early Access to milk even more money from people and eventually not even test it. While still charging top dollar.

xkcd #3209: Plums

Title text:

My icebox plum trap easily captured William Carlos Williams. It took much less work than the infinite looping network of diverging paths I had to build in that yellow wood to ensnare Robert Frost.
