Monster Hunter. I don’t understand any of it. I tried rise and generations and I just… I just don’t get it.

penguin_ex_machina , to nostupidquestions in If a person with bad vision uses manual focus on a camera, can the focus be adjusted to their own prescription?

Disclaimer: I’m not an optician. I do, however, work in advertising and happen to have a number of clients in the lens manufacturing industry. Take what I’m about to say with a grain of salt.

Short answer is, not really.

Diagnosing vision issues is much more complicated than simply “is it in focus”. The shape of the cornea, how your eye physically reacts to light, distance from an object, and disease all have an impact on how you perceive the world around you. That’s why you have things like aberrations, glares, near sightedness, far sightedness, and a plurality of other vision problems. When someone is fitted for glasses or contact lenses, a number of parameters (read, dozens) are required get what is considered a proper “fit”.

There are some similarities between how a camera lens works and our eyes, but you also have to consider that you’re not just looking through the lens itself, you’re focusing on a screen that’s attached to the lens. So, if you can’t focus your eye sight at the distance the screen is at, it doesn’t matter what the camera is seeing, because it’ll look like garbage to you either way.

I think they might be referring to a camera with a direct, through lense, viewfinder. Like a pair of binoculars.

penguin_ex_machina ,

I thought the same maybe, but I assumed an actual camera because of context (using the camera’s manual focus and printing out the photo afterwards). @WeirdGoesPro ? Did I misunderstand?

Yrt , to gaming in Whats a game that everybody seems to love that you cant stand for one reason or another?

For me Skyrim, The Witcher 3, botw and all souls games.

Skyrim never clicked, it just felt buggy and empty and punishing. Trying to climb that mountain just so a yeti can beat you up? Great, here is your save spot form 15 min earlyer, please try again. I know that’s why it’s fun for so many, I just hated it.

The Witcher 3 was too… much dialogue. Most of the time I can play 1-3 hours every couple of days. And in the Witcher you walk 15min through beautiful but otherwise empty forest, killing 1-15 something, walk back and talk like another 15min with the guy who gave you the quest. It’s really deep worldbuilding, but when you don’t have a lot of time it’s more “damn, what happend last?” 5min walking “ah, that happened” takes new quest, so much talking…“ah damn, my hour is gone, so I finish the quest another time.” PC off.

Botw cause the world felt empty and everything broke in an instant and I’m the player ending with 50 healing potions, 10 big scrolls and so on cause MaYbE I’ll need it another time. Doesn’t match with botw. TotK is so much better handling this, cause you can craft any good item in an instant.

And Souls Games are just a broken mess. They’re not hard by default, they’re hard cause of all the buggy and mushy controls. It never feels crisp, it’s just a big blob and maybe your character rolls or maybe it feels like an invisible wall, who knows. Games like Jedi Fallen Order in hard mode or Hollow Knight were so much more fun, cause the controls were crisp and everytime I lost, it was because of me. I did wrong and not some squishi spaghetti code.

These days I just got a plex server and a project zomboid server running.

Kurt , to selfhosted in How do you guys have your music streaming setup?
@Kurt@lemmy.one avatar

I use Jellyfin and Finamp. When it works it’s great, but it seems to always crap out after half an hour or so of streaming.

Interesting. I don’t see this issue.

pwmesq , to warframe in What are your favourite low-usage frames?

Probably Yareli, she is quite tanky even in steel path and even if your surfboard dies, its one button press and instantly back up. Combine with ocucor and you just sorta roomba the map. Screw some of the grineer layouts tho.

PopOfAfrica , to selfhosted in What are YOU self-hosting?

At the moment, just a Plex server, but would love to migrate to Jellyfin eventually.

The Plex ads and bloat are really starting to get to me.

Aurix , to piracy in Why are we showing our hand by un-privating the subreddit after only 48 hours???

It was a limited scale action to show the impact possible. If reddit indeed won’t move it could become indefinitely. /r/ffxiv already wanted to move it to a week or indefinitely.

Avian_Carrier ,

The problem with this thinking is that “limited scale” is easy to wait out. Grow some balls and make it indefinite.

Restaldt , to futurama in Which Futurama line(s) do you find yourself quoting for no raisin?

You are technically correct

Which is the best kind of correct

thekernel , to selfhosted in [Question] Does anyone run their own email server?

Not worth the hassle - best compromise is to get your own domain but use a provider like fastmail to host it.

If they turn sour you can move your domain to another mail host.

DidacticDumbass OP ,

I think this is the solution I was thinking about in the first place. I was just musing about it being part of a home lab. I have to consider whether this solution is is better than just paying for secure email.

thekernel ,

There are advantages to having your own domain - you can use something like [email protected] so each site you sign up to gets their own unique “to” address, that way you can easily send their mail to trash when you dont’ need to deal with them anymore, and will also let you know what company had a data breach if that unique email address starts to get spam.

DidacticDumbass OP ,

This is what I want! I want that granular control of having an email address compartmentalized for specific kinds of communication. I mean, I know it is something provided by basically all email providers, but I don’t know, for sure there are limitations. A unique address for each website seems like such a smart thing to do, on top of being stingy with giving out my email address.

timbuck2themoon ,

Protonmail at certain levels gives you simple login with unlimited aliases. Something to look into. I love it and have been with them for years.

psilves1 ,

Firefox Relay is by far the easiest (and imo best) solution for that

You can try it for free and if you use it enough it only costs $24 a year

DidacticDumbass OP ,

Neato. Yeah, just today I spent more than that on a haircut. Will deeply consider it.

psilves1 ,

Your first 5 email masks are free and if you install the extension a little icon will appear in most email fields. Let’s you create a new mask right there.

If you buy the premium version you can get your own custom subdomain: @XXXX.mozmail.com where you pick XXXX

This way you don’t even need the extension. You can just do something like “[email protected]” and Relay will “create” that email for you. Cannot recommend it enough, especially since it’s free to start

complex_potato , to technology in Redditors, how do you like Lemmy?

It desperately needs a compact, efficient UI similar to old.reddit’s design philosophy. Otherwise its not bad. The auto-refreshing front page is very frustrating to use. I want to click on an article, and between when I move the cursor and click, new articles have refreshed and the link I clicked was the wrong one

Zamboniman ,

The auto-refreshing front page is very frustrating to use.

Sounds like that’s being fixed soon.

pimeys ,

What I like about Lemmy is how it’s UI and backend are completely separate. I’ve seen others already asking for old.reddit type of an interface, so it is just a matter of time now…
