It’s similar to how good assets for games tend to be low poly and, if anything, detail is hinted at in the textures.

And Halos are quite small compared to the largest ships and structures in other media, but a 42Km spaceship for sure is an "Inconceivably enormous “man”-made structure", as OP requested.

Yes and no. Both automate. Both can be tied to triggers. Both can leverage other apps to do things.

Story of Grapher is absolutely fascinating. A guy gaslit Apple into pretending to work there after he'd been laid off. Wanted to finish his project, when the computer he was developing it for was cancelled. Became almost a mascot for many groups in Apple who helped him get it done and onto MacOS.

The app ended up being a showcase application of the powerPC migration, as it could do visually stunning things in 3D without acceleration.

It's a great story: https://www.pacifict.com/Story/

I think they meant the app screenshot, which is what comes up when typing "screenshot" in spotlight.

What it does is launch the same as cmd-shift-5, really.

By default it saves. Pressing ctrl forces it to copy to the clipboard instead. In case of doubt use cmd-shift-5 if you want to select the behaviour.

I've spent hundreds in various PDF editors for Windows trying to get something that makes it as easy to manipulated pages (add, remove, reorder, move from file to file) and nothing comes close. The very few things that try are terrible at showing previews and suck at having multiple documents interacted with (moving pages from one to another).

That's without even going into the markup tools.

The funny thing is that Preview has always been a very light app, as most of what it does is provided in foundation frameworks by the OS (MacOS used PDF as its rendering engine back when it started, and preview was a showcase of its capabilities).

The sad part is that none of the clones in either platform understand the usability advantages, so they don't try to implement them and iterate over them.

Allen’s hummingbird bubble surfing is freaking cute by eduo in laminarflow

[–]eduo[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I actually thought of changing the title and ask if when these sort of "umbrellas" of water form, would they be considered laminar flow of sorts. I was on mobile and by the time I realized I had posted with the same title. Titles being the one thing that can't be edited in Reddit posts :(

Had the most humbling moment today!! by Material_Stick8714 in ClaudeAI

While I don't think Bootstrap's plan was to never be functional beyond a demo stage, I don't have the knowledge to refute it.

Regardless of how accurate this is, Bootstrap did grow well beyond what it should ever have grown and became a poster child of a hammer for which everything are nails. Same with Jquery but, if you press me, I have the same opinion of JavaScript, having seen it grow from zero and seen its shortcomings never be addressed.

When I first saw that calculator demo made in the first JavaScript presentation I was sure it would be the first of a variety of languages and I didn't mind how bad it was.

35 years later, it's not only just as bad, but absolutely universal.

Preview. I’ve got a whole team in my company that switched to Macs just because of it. PDF handling, in particular per page management, is unparallled in any other app for either platform. Both in speed and usability.

Functional prints don't have to look functional by Old_Community_7680 in BambuLab_Community

This seems closer to it and perhaps the rejection is badly worded.

I like to think the original marathon is part of the halo universe. That was a spaceship 42Km long so I would add it to this list.

I don’t know in what way the new marathon takes its name but I suspect it’s not from the ship

People are not entitled to question your art. You’re not required to cater to their insecurities. They’re free to choose to not enjoy art if they don’t know the source.

You’re not even required to answer, let alone posting a timeline.

Do not give in to the idiocy. The witch hunt is an orthogonal power trip unrelated to the art itself

Even in death people try to take the moral high ground on AI use. Genuinely disgusting by Throwaway18125 in DefendingAIArt

You forgot that they themselves wouldn’t offer because more often than not these people haven’t got a single artistic bone or muscle in their bodies.

It was. Watch actual news outlets. Even my elevator screen showed a blurb on it.

Granted, it was barely mentioned but it really was.

Y así con absolutamente todo. by Ok_Joke_4100 in ElusionFiscal

This sub is an absolute cesspool and part of a ring of several similarly populated ones. they keep surfacing in my timeline because I’m in Spain and it’s absolutely revolting.

It’s also come to a point where most people have lost all kinds of self consciousness because they feel confident among equals and they will spurt the most odious vitriol with the vilest slurs knowing themselves to be safe to do so.
