Other than the happy ending on some cuts providing a different tone for the ending, I don’t think there’s any difference in the story/aesthetics
Yeah, Blade Runner is also amazing at capturing the aesthetic. I watched the final cut version of it, which is the only one that Ridley Scott got complete creative control over. Haven’t watched the other cuts but did check out the monologue voiceovers on youtube that are on some of the other cuts, and I didn’t care for them. The happy ending on some of them also seemed silly. There’s a whole Wikipedia article about the various versions lol.
Haven’t yet watched Blade Runner 2049 yet, but I’ve heard it’s worth watching. Not quite as good as the original, but not much worse.

I’ll be posting that panel to a very different community over at lemmynsfw.com
Context, no spoilers:
Looks like he chose to get up on the horsedog tbh, he wasn’t above it when it grew legs. “Well if I must 🤭”
This is a great explanation. Thinking of the question @ad_on_is@lemm.ee asked the other day of How could we convince Reddit subs to move over to Lemmy?, this is the sort of post that is good to share and draw people in to Lemmy.
Send interesting Lemmy links to people you know. That’s how they get interested, and check it out. You won’t convince many people by extolling the benefits of the Fediverse, you just have to show them that they’ll be entertained, and maybe they’ll be somewhat more likely to switch if they know it won’t enshittify. I’d say you should send links from instances that don’t federate with some of the weirder places like Hexbear though, that’s likely to turn people off until they realize how the Fediverse works.
One thing that we could use more of that draws people in is posts about relationship issues. Entertaining for almost everyone, and pretty much anyone can create them from their own experience.

Not sure if it’s on the play store or not, but you can download the apk directly from that page if it’s not and you don’t already have F-Droid installed
Great accelerationist pick, appreciated by both nazis and tankies
I switched from Tuta to Fastmail. Tuta was mostly fine, but being restricted to only their client was really annoying. I can use Fastmail with Thunderbird/FairEmail/etc just fine.
I get what Tuta is trying to do with encrypted email, but IMO they’re better off joining up with Fastmail on better specs that allow for the things they want to do, instead of limiting what email clients you can use.
