  • I'm going to have to do some manual editing for this one. Could you keep your actual submission in the first comment next time please? My script only reads the top-level replies for this post, not the replies to replies.
    Manually altering my staging file is a bit of a headache :)

  • An alternative, not sure yet which one I'll submit.
    Mother nature provides:

    I kind of like the idea of going on a hike and finding this in the forest :)

  • Well it does say 80s adventure movie in the prompt, so that sounds about right :)


  • Prompt: 80s adventure movie, A female explorer running towards the camera, with a frightened look on their face, a gigantic silver ball is rolling in the background, through a pinball environment, detailed face, low angle, dramatic lighting, shot on 35mm vistavision film --ar 91:51 --v 6.1

  • I did a bit of extra reading and I made a mistake. The Utrecht library is 132 years old, but this building is exactly 100 years old.
    I really need to read more thoroughly.

  • If you zoom all the way in, you can see a few between those pillars at the end of the hall :)

  • I really love Jack Vance’s world building. His Gaean Reach setting gives an endless variety of cultures, customs and beliefs. And the Dying Earth novels formed the basis for magic system of DnD.

    But the real treasure is in how he can let these worlds come alive with his descriptions. Often he would spend a whole paragraph describing something that will never be part of the story but manages to perfectly set the tone of the local atmosphere.

    I grew with these books (thanks to my dad’s impressive personal SF library) and they’ve always managed to spark my imagination like no other book.

  • I use a large folded microfiber towel as knee support in pilates. It’s not as spongy as a normal towel but soft and supportive enough for those exercises that put a lot of stress on my knees or tailbone.

    That's an interesting topic, because I had my idea from a dream I had last night. Not the most original image, but it was fun to try and reproduce something from a dream.

    I recently travelled to Europe, and I'm a big tall guy and was really uncomfortable for 8 hours of travel. And last night, I dreamt that I was in a slightly futuristic plane, that was much wider than regular planes. It had 12 or 16 seats in width, with enough room to be comfortable. The top half of the plane was made of glass and we could see outside.

    The plane could take off from an inclined platform, most like Princess Vespa's ship in Spaceballs :)

    Here's what I was able to do. The only difference with my dream is there should be many more seats per row.

    Prompt : The inside of a very wide airplane. It doesn't look very futuristic, just slightly better than today's planes. The top half of the plane is made of glass, and we can see the a clear sky through it. It's very sunny inside. The floor is covered with blue carpet. The seats are individual, all aligned, about a dozen per row, and they are white and blue. The plane is full of travelers. People have screens they can use for leisure.

    Maurice le tombeur did spare no expense for his golden shoes and shorts. He likes to make jaws drop on his daily commute to village bakery for his baguette. He also fills his pockets with golden glitter—Everytime he takes his wallet out, people think it's magic✨

  • A small side note on that 30% ruling, it's only for highly skilled workers, so there are some requirements to meet.
    Also, you'd best not boast about it to your Dutch coworkers if you want to make friends over here :)

  • Since most games are often mentioned on the internet, I'm going to reach waaaaaaaay back to my childhood and mention Cartooners:


    This was a game for kids to make their own cartoons. I spend so much time making all kinds of funny and weird stories. It was very basic, but it had me giggling every time.

  • I did the thing yesterday. It wasn’t my intention, and it was kind of incidental , but I’m so glad I did it in the end.
    I can definitely recommend, just do the thing, you’ll thank yourself later.
