Zeus,

if you fully colour images without transparency [i.e. the google/amazon icons] in red, they won't be distinguishable - they'll just be a red circle/square

however, if you still want to do it; put brightness(0) as the first filter to make it black, then an invert(0.5) to make it not black

also, you can use https://codepen.io/sosuke/pen/Pjoqqp to calculate the exact colour you want (although if it's 0deg red that's not hugely important)

filter:
	brightness(0)
	invert(18%)
	sepia(97%)
	saturate(3399%)
	hue-rotate(0deg)
	brightness(85%)
	contrast(90%);
Zeus,

okay there is a way to do this in css, but

  1. it's really fucking tedious to do it for many images;
  2. i haven't tried to do it in userchrome, just normal css.
    • i just tested it with the browser toolbox, and it doesn't work, but it may do if you add it to userchrome then restart &c.

but it is less hacky than doing it with the background-image way, so if you want to try it:

  • the basic way to replace an image by its url is with content[^1]
    • so to replace your avatar with mine, use
img[src="/static/1787a77/assets/icons/icon-96x96.png"] {
	content: url("https://lemm.ee/pictrs/image/e04cf77f-b694-4a15-9633-3281efbe8157.webp")
}
  • however tab favicons use data uri's (i also don't know if they accept svg - they ought, but i'm not sure)
    • so you'd need to inspect the tab, copy the uri, and hope it never changes. lemm.ee's, at the moment, is img[src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0K[..]8sRwEqwGyXYQAAAABJRU5ErkJggg=="]
  • using this technique, you should be able to have (obviously use the full data uri for the match, but it's too long for a lemmy comment)
[src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0K[..]8sRwEqwGyXYQAAAABJRU5ErkJggg=="] {
	content: url("data:image/webp;base64,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") !important
}
  • you might want to add extra specifiers so it doesn't match the same image if used elsewhere (i don't know if it ever is)
    • i.e. img.tab-icon-image[src=".."] {}

however, this doesn't work from my minute or so's testing

(by the way if you add 3 backticks you get a codeblock rather than the ol' ugly inline code. also you can specify the language in markdown, although i don't know if it affects anything in lemmy)

[^1]: also this only works in ffx, but that's not important right now

Zeus,

well i don't really know how much you know, so i don't want to over-explain things, but:

  • data uris are basically a way of embedding a whole image in text, rather than linking to an image (i.e. src=./favicon.png). more reading. so there's no way of guessing what image to replace, you have to inspect the source of the image in the browser chrome
  • which leads me to: the browser toolbox allows you to inspect the actual browserchrome itself more reading. you can't right click → inspect to pinpoint a specific element, but you can click the "⇱" icon and select an element
  • so you'll have to inspect your own browser to find the specific string
  • if the code actually did nothing (on lemmy, not amazon) you might be out of luck - it's possible firefox compresses them differently so the uri doesn't match i'm an idiot, it would do nothing, it has [..] in it because the actual string is too long for a lemmy comment

do feel free to ask further questions, although my replies may be slow as i'm not really on lemmy that often

PSA to those who use sunshine with KDE

Disable the systemd unit file I feel it just adds more troubleshooting. Use KDE's autostart for Sunshine.

If your sunshine is still broken, update the monitor to 0 in the web ui. Remember that monitor count will be different to some extent.

Use KMS until NVIDIA adds support to wayland for its NvFBC. It will take an eternity sadly. Enjoy!

And no, Steam client sucks in Wayland with all the flickering. That's the bad news

@kde

Zeus,

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

Zeus,

I have to say I like this one

imageDolphin

kde can still look like that too:

kde oxygen theme, plasma 5.27

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

[^1]: this is conjecture, i haven’t done any studies

Zeus,

Unfortunately the other available communities like !fediverse or !lemmyapps don’t quite fit a bot announcement either. So I decided to make something fitting!

what about lemmy plugins & userscripts?

Zeus,

just to let you know - lemmy.fmhy.ml has shut down, so your posts won’t be visible to anyone outside of lemm.ee

(in case you were wondering why they’re getting fewer votes than they deserve)

Zeus,

i agree, although i think this was a particularly weird case

i believe lemmy would normally sync the removal of communities if an instance shut down; but l.fmhy.ml never actually properly shut, their domain was seized by mali with no warning so they didn’t have the opportunity to gracefully delete everything unfortunately

Zeus, (edited )

how disappointing

i might send something to their support email address - it’s unlikely to affect anything, but it’s possible

edit - response received 19-10-2023

Hi Ɀeus, thank you for the heads up,

We are aware of the issue and our tech team is investigating. We hope to have this fixed very soon.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Please let me know if you have any other comments or questions and I’ll be happy to help.

Kind regards,

Irene

more hopeful than i was expecting, but still not that hopeful

Zeus,

lemm.ee has temporarily disabled all image uploads actually, due to the csam spam (see the post on !meta)

/0 has recently released his ai anti-csam filter though, so hopefully they should be back soon

Zeus, (edited )

yeah, definitely

i have before not posted until i found the actual artist, but 1) if it’s published as the studio, that’s a canonical credit, and 2) it might (as in this case) be the work of multiple people, and a studio is just shorthand for multiple artists

also this is cool as hell

Zeus, (edited )

i honestly don’t know actually

it calls itself a building, but it has wheels and steam escaping from where it would on a steam loco, but also the wheels are far too small to haul something of that size, the axles would snap

so it could be either

Zeus,

yeah you’re right, but my point was specifically that on this piece it could just be a station building with decorative wheels

that is a chunky boi though i love him. is it concept art for anything? it reminds of something for some reason

Zeus, (edited )

☠︎︎

Zeus,

i have that’s why it says “cross-posted to: imaginarycathedrals” at the top

Zeus,

i wonder if i could do that in wallpaper engine actually

it might look a bit weird with the ships being static though

Zeus,

no i mean i have no idea which joke, you muppet

[Untitled] by Ralph McQuarrie (64.media.tumblr.com)

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...

Zeus,

huh, i never knew star wars had those

Zeus,

i’m so impressed you can tell the difference

now you say it i can see a slightly different style at the front, but i did think it was just the same image with a different background

Zeus, (edited )

sorry! i’ve mostly stopped using lemmy for numerous reasons, so i didn’t see this until now

i’ll add it now, and i’ve messaged you c̄ more details

Zeus,

i might do for now, although i’m not sure for how long(in my humblest of opinions lemmy is fundamentally flawed on conceptual, technical, and environmental levels)

but i did see some of your posts and enjoyed them (and also found and followed your tumblr somehow) ­– do you want me to add you as a mod of !imaginarywarhammer? (i sort of inherited it when the original mod went a.w.o.l., so it seems fitting to add someone else now i’m doing so)
