That really wasn’t a fun place to visit. Powerful, and if you’ve the head for it worthwhile, but fuck me if that wasn’t the most harrowing holiday day out I’ve ever had

It took me a while to get my head around them, but once Chronosiam got to basically playing on repeat in my head, I was pretty hooked. Their catalogue is fairly damn weird, and all the better for it

If I had to review it, I’d say Three stars, big waist of space

That’s a pretty fantastic site, with a lot of things I can use. It’s got all the Adobe things that I’m trying to avoid using, because fuck adobe even if i was pirating it, but not what I’m after. Great shout though, I’ll definitely be having another look at it

I thought it was bad juju to just announce what you’re trying to steal. I’m after Lightroom’s main competitor

You know that the second hand market exists, right? I bought my m1 air for £150, so I’ll be fucked if I pay the prices Adobe etc want for software for personal use, even if I didn’t think Adobe’s business model was deplorable.

Mac software suggestions (sh.itjust.works)
 

So, I’ve been trying to find a specific bit of Mac software for a while, and keep coming up blank (any site suggestions?). It’s a pretty common program, and I can find no end of the most recent windows versions, but if there is any for Mac they’re about 10 generations behind, and hardly seeded. I’ve trawled the megathread, to no avail. Any suggestions on where to look?

Piece - Rambler’s Axe (now, like came out today or yesterday) in c/metal@lemmy.world

No worries, the whole album is pretty good. Fat and soupy, with the occasional belter of a riff breaking the surface

He’s definitely making a case for a strong correlation between whatever the fuck his mum was doing during pregnancy, and being an absolute fuckwit

Site for workshop/technical manuals? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Looking for a few workshop manuals, is there anywhere that generally has a good selection?

Recommend me a simple hub (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hey all. I’ve been looking for a small, basic USB-C hub with pass through power. Like literally just 4 USB-C ports, a short cable and a USB-C power in. No extra nonsense, just a minimal way to connect an SSD, a monitor, and power to my deck, and charge a peripheral if necessary. It seems unreasonably hard to find! Any suggestions?

Recommend me a steam deck game (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hello peeps. Life’s thrown me some curve-balls recently, and I’d like a bit of an escape. Can anyone recommend a decent game in the vein of Skyrim, Fallout or Deus Ex/System Shock for the steam deck, that isn’t 25 or 30 quid please? Something on offer for less than a tenner would be ideal. I’m sure there are some great older RPGs out there that I’ve missed, the Deck is the first time I’ve got back into gaming for quite a few years, and while I’m sure I could quite happily just play Brotato for the next few years, I reckon there’s something a bit more immersive out there for me to find!

Help defining the genre of photography that interests me (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hi all, I need a bit of help.

I’m looking to get further down the rabbit hole of interesting photographers, but I struggle to define what I’m after. My general misanthropy extends into photography, people are almost always the least interesting thing in the frame to me. Why would you waste film on faces, when you could be taking interesting images of some nice concrete or rusty iron?!

I love the work of Toshio Shibata, Bernd and Hilla Bescher, Bill Brandt, Danila Tkachenko, and GXAce on YouTube. The problem I have is that searching for “Urban” photographers brings up street stuff, “Architectural” ends up with folks who take pictures of whole buildings, “industrial” seems to lead to people who take photos for corporate websites, or urbexers (though some of those are verging on what I’m after). Constructed landscapes, textures, geometric shapes, and the juxtaposition of human artifice and nature, that’s my bag.

Is there a term or genre that would connect all this? Or am I just going to have to keep finding new artists one at a time?

Ta!
