Yes, there may be existing options - PieFed has an image view and I suspect the *key forks could be made to do something similar.

That seems like a plus to them.

Also on F-Droid.

Yes.

I’ve just asked. There is a FOSS but not federated version.

But it is largely human-curated and indexed. That’s great for training AI, like Reddit.

Here in the UK we have:

• https://t-shirts.co.uk/
• https://www.8ball.co.uk/

Yeah, bit underwhelming.

It was pretty inevitable.

Good stuff. 👍

Yeah, the New Management spin-off hasn’t landed as well with me, but I am looking forward to Bob’s return.

I sense a guerilla sticker campaign looming.

For more mature French comics, Mobius and Jodorowsky dominate the conversation but I’ve been blown away by Philippe Druillet. As this review of Loan Sloane says:

In terms of sheer conceptual imagination when it comes to heroic science fiction in comics, Philippe Druillet is perhaps the only creator who approaches Jack Kirby’s creativity.

Also worth checking out Métal Hurlant and the output of its publisher Humanoids.

There are good English translations of them all available.

Unfortunately, a lot are on YouTube.

I’m not sure I bring many skills to the table that you’d need to make this work. I am happy to cheerlead and throw some ideas in.

Oh indeed, although they are quite clear which ones are. My biggest concern is the other bit of the lemming’s warning (what I’m going with anyway), not to go all in, as you never know if the project is unsustainable without all the data harvesting. However, Google have taught me that lesson over thr years.

Definitely - they basically had to invent a genre to put this wild collision of genres in.

There are two recentish book series I get evangelical about - this (and China Mieville’s early work) and Charles Stross’ Laundry Files.

Most of the store brands are cheap because they aren’t having to pay a large multinational for the privilege of making what is a pretty simple product for them.

As the humus contamination incident in the UK revealed, most of the supermarket own brands are often all made in the same place by a local firm who can keep the margins low.

Ah ha, they are on Lemmy: !disroot_community@scribe.disroot.org

This feels like the next step we need to take.

• Graphics that boil the complex issues and options down.

• Propaganda to share on social media driving people to the key spaces for discussion on this.

• Longer videos of product testing that can be cut down to shorter clips.

If you can get some momentum behind this, perhaps set up space where everyone can collaborate.
