  • Tbh, I don’t think there is a definite “youtube style” that describes all content on youtube. There are some similarities and within categories of videos you can find styles that are more popular within that category, but site wide I would say it provides quite a bit of variety.

    What could be called youtube style is that it’s not TV. In that sense YT style and TV style maybe make some sense.

  • What industry do you work in and what are the LPT the general public should know about it?

  • Thank you for putting all of this so succintly. I’m not into teaching, but I’ve done a few workshops and I always struggle to express the attitude you described to get the pupils engaged.

    I had this same attitude when I was a student. Even though my professors were older and more knowledgable, I always tried to approach them as peers and it worked out great. I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed, but because I talked, I could use my strengths better because I was more aware of the expectations and requirements than a portion of other students.

  • I saw them live circa 2016, amazing band. Very energetic.

  • Early Spring Praxis Post

  • In my language (Latvian) we use praxis if not daily then often. It just means “a way of doing things”. In educational terms it’s an internship.

    So it’s not necessarily an application of theory because it doesn’t imply you know any theory. It’s just practical action.

    That said what you said isn’t wrong, I just wanted to expand on it since it’s a common term I use.

  • Ah, I’m also planning on hooking up a rain barrel before summer starts and everything in Dalmatia dries out. Good luck with yours!

    I’m also looking into using mulch, but haven’t researched it at all so I’m unsure what exactly I can do with it in my garden. I was thinking of using last year’s grass to cover the plots of land I’m going to plant stuff in.

  • Planting my own veggies for the first time and cleaning the overgrown space in my backyard that was once a garden.

    I also got my grandma to send me blackcurrant cuttings across half of Europe and they took to the soil here surprisingly well. I essentially just dug a hole, put higher quality soil into it and stuck the branches into the soil. The rain and the sun did the rest of the work and within a week I’m seeing small leaves.

    The plan for this month is to dig up the land in the backyard, prepare plots for the veggies and create a fence from the branches that come from the laurel trees that we cleared about a month ago.

    I’m also letting the lawn do its own thing in the part of the property that’s facing the street. It’s spectecular. Short vid here.

  • Now this stopped me scrolling. Really cool, captivating image. I love a photo with a lot of things going on that retains a sense of rhythm.

    Good camera the X300, I killed one a few years ago and felt pretty bad about it. The electronics don’t hold up well in damp environments.

  • Well ACTSHUALLY, depending on your definition of the middle ages, you wouldn’t be very likely to be killed for being a witch, since the witch hunt came into being after the Reneissance.

    That said, I would also take the spices. The amount of spices in that picture would probably set me up for life. Buy a nice place somewhere in Northern Italy and live out my days learning to play the moog, amusing my medieval friends.

  • Mercedes-Benz scales back electric ambitions as EV pessimism grows

  • Someone more educated, please explain to me, why it’s impossible to just take the existing industry, take all the know how and engineering and direct efforts into electrifying (converting) existing cars instead of building new ones.

    If the world was perfect and there was no nuance, no bad actors, no human factor involved - would it be a viable solution to cut back on the emissions without getting rid of the comfort that a car affords?

  • For example cameras have been weatherproof for decades now. And you can both change the batteries and plug a bunch of stuff in them no problem.

  • Might be a silly question, but aren’t SSD’s supposedly worse than HDD’s for storing data long term? Or is that just a myth?

    I’ve read that if you only store data and then read it off the disk without overwriting then it’s comparable to HDD data degradation wise. Not sure how true is that.

  • I like the dinner table analogy, I’ll remember it next time this topic comes up because I think it connects to a wider audience than photographers and audiophiles.

  • Not really.

    I’ve owned a bunch of digital cameras (never a full frame one) and I now have a Canon 30D which is ancient by DSLR standards. With the Lightroom de-noise AI the RAW files I shoot with that camera might as well come from something made in the last 10 years. I might be exaggerating, but besides the megapixel count, for whatever I use my cameras for, the pictures come out great out of that one.

    For me, shooting film is about the random glitches analog media produces. It’s about the sound. It’s about handling an old, mechanical camera. It’s about the achievement of catching a nice moment without any aids. That can’t be reproduced, just by the virtue of the fact that it’s literally just not the same.

    On the purely technical side, digital and film is just two different mediums and there are some things you can’t reproduce. Like painting on a canvas or a wall and on a tablet. But for most use cases where you don’t intentionally require an analog image, I would say that digital does just as good of a job and is way more flexible.

    My 2 cents.

  • I was just commenting on this to my gf a couple of days ago - I’m browsing and posting on the internet less so I feel more free to do things in a way that I like without thinking about the what audience they’re for.

    In a way the awful state, and what I view as a downfall (remains to be seen), of big sites that everyone has been tied to for essentially a decade feels like shedding chains. I hope more people quit and spend their energy elsewhere. It doesn’t have to be another site, it can be any offline endeavour.

    I’m on Lemmy because I’ve come to a realization that the reason I enjoyed internet back in the day was, as you said, a different type of engagement. And I don’t think it will ever be as it used to be. But a big part of that engagement was conversations like we’re having right now. At least in my algorithm enclosed corner of big social media sites I don’t see people reacting and having a conversation. It’s just a reaction, thanks, like, bye. Sometimes there’s arguing. But never a conversation.

  • I think downvotes on facts and upvotes on feelings is just people wanting to feel validated, but not having the energy to engage with content. It used to happen on reddit too a lot. A lot of communities there are based on dealing with human emotions and situations in life. People seeking advice and validation about their lives being the primary motivation for even creating an account on the site.

    I have a little pet theory backed by some reading that people are overstimulated by junk content to the point where they just can't meaningfully engage in serious discussions anymore and that leads to the phenomena of populism on a political scale and simple, emotion-based upvoting on a Lemmy scale.

  • Your comment nicely illustrates OPs observation.

    Anyone can feel free to disagree with me or poke at inconsistencies in what I wrote, I know they're there, but I don't have the time to write an essay. But calling me a retarded child while misinterpreting what I said is exactly the kind of aggressive commenting I believe OP is pointing out.
