  • I’m a woman and I absolutely love eggs, if someone gifted me a dozen I would get excited.

    Now, I kept seeing references about egg prices being ridiculous here on Lemmy. I live in Australia and free range eggs here are rather expensive, around $6 - $9 a dozen. For some perspective for Americans, here with $8.90 you can get a Big Mac (no fries, no drinks), or for $7.95 a regular size popcorn chicken at KFC. Personally the average cost of groceries if I am cooking myself is around $15 to $20 per day, but I don’t eat a lot.

    How do egg prices stack against other things in the States?

    I’m also not on X, and I see the sarcasm, but if her tweet is actually real then I’m afraid I’m missing her point: …so you say you would hypothetically agree on collaborating for Mein Kampf For Children if the illustrator was of your liking??? Wtf





  • Many big studios use linux (red hat or rocky, although I’m not sure what is the industry standard distro nowadays) for their 3d side of the pipeline, that would include all of that software and more. I think Zbrush is the only one that doesn’t have official Linux compatibility and the hardest one to run, but don’t quote me on that.

    You are right in that finding good support for issues that pop up in Linux is hard, especially for the average joe that doesn’t have a team of specialized IT support. But when you make things work, the results are way more efficient.








  • In essence, this quote is true.

    Applied to reality though, in our day and age your results may vary. It is completely possible to travel and learn nothing that would open people’s minds especially when the traveling keeps itself within tourist zones and resorts designed to just give you a change of landscape and an illusion of cultural flavor.

    You need to purposefully step away from that sort of thing and actually engage with the culture to get the benefits of the quote.
