we've got monitor edge barriers! the feature i missed most from windows is here i'm so pleased!
i doubt it, i don't see why an icon pack would have a systemd service. probably something to do with moonlight [nvidia]
still, thank you for introducing me to a new* icon pack
I have to say I like this one

kde can still look like that too:
i really hope oxygen does get ported to plasma 6, and not dropped like the air theme has been
i must say though, as much as i prefer the look of light themes usually, i think dark themes are objectively[^1] better unless you're in bright sunlight: images and video aren't affected by themes, so dark themes put the focus on the media, whereas light themes can wash them out
(current theme setup)
[^1]: this is conjecture, i haven't done any studies
lemm.ee has temporarily disabled all image uploads actually, due to the csam spam (see the post on !meta@lemm.ee)
/0 has recently released his ai anti-csam filter though, so hopefully they should be back soon

i love everything ralph mcquarrie has done. for those who don't know, he did most of the star wars concept art, but he's also done his own pieces too. i have seen unreliable sources claim that this is an early bespin or coruscant concept, but take that with a pinch of salt
higher quality image, but cropped (and with the signature removed):

okay i really need to branch out from space marines, i am posting nothing but space marines...
Showing some love for Imperial titan and space marine enthusiast. I really like the appeal of giant robots with churches on top of it. It is just wild. That is why I really like Warhammer.

it's cool to see two ships meeting at an oblique angle! normally in space they just conveniently happen to align with each other
used as an alternative cover of "Ethan of Athos" by Lois McMaster Bujold
i think it depends
i mean it looks shitty on my screenshot, but that's because it's a phone not a tablet. my eyes can move easier than my thumbs, so i'd rather glance than have to scroll twice as far
i disagree with empty space usually, but i don't disagree that it would be better filled with, say actionable buttons rather than text that needs to be read
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i'd find it much better as it's more information dense. that's why apps have preferences.
but i was just pointing out that there's definitely a "sensible alternative"

I decided to try my hand at doing a planet. Turned out okay! Not 100% happy with how all of the surface detail looks but overall I'm pretty satisfied still.
"In ancient times, men built wonders, laid claim to the stars and sought to better themselves for the good of all. But we are much wiser now."
Mars, fourth from Sol. Birthplace of the Adeptus Mechanicus, the secretive priesthood that regulates the distribution and use of technology in Imperial space.
The Red Planet was the first of forge worlds, established by the nascent machine cult to safeguard technology and knowledge through the long millenia of the Age of Strife. Ever since Mars has been the strategic and economical center of the tech-priests' operations, supplying innumerable weapons, vehicles and equipment to the ravenous war machine that is the Imperium of Man.
The planet is ringed by great shipyards that labour endlessly to maintain and reinforce the Imperium's fleets and, in towering hive-factories that rise up as iron mountains through the lethally polluted atmosphere, billions of menials, enginseers and technomancers do their holy work to research, assemble and repurpose ancient tech-lore for use in this new, darker age.

used for the cover of vernor vinge's "A Deepness in the Sky"
now to me this looks quite a bit older than 2000; but that's what isfdb says, and who am i to argue?

honestly this is a part of why i basically stopped using lemmy a few months back
(i think it's partly what put martineski off too, although i don't want to speak for him)
not my own comments, but i noticed more and more comments being downvoted for daring to say something controversial. i remember back before we had to have the "this is not a disagree button" hover text on reddit, now we don't even have that
