Huge respect for the sheer creativity that goes into creating practical effects like that given the limited resources at the time.

I share your conclusion that pretty much any cyberpunk related content is good to have here. I have appreciated your contributions, by the way.
Regular posting and commenting is what makes for a good community so I think that anyone reading this should try to help contribute to grow our community (and any other community of your interest too) without worrying too much about having the perfect content to share.
That said, if you do want my opinion:
My main concern is that I would not like to see this community dominated by a single type of content such as memes or images. That's fine for communities that are focused on such content but I think that variety would be ideal here.
Memes, humorous images, and otherwise non-serious stuff are okay in small amounts and preferably when it is somewhat new and original. However, I also find that there are several that are so thoroughly played out that I'm sick of seeing those pop up again and again too.
So far I've been pleased to see that this community hasn't yet been filled up with what I consider to be generic, uninspired cyberpunk images - the kind of artwork that it feels like I have seen it over and over even when it is new. Don't take this to mean I don't appreciate good cyberpunk art though.
Sharing music you enjoy is fine with me even if it is something that is always subjective.
Also I think that random "have you guys seen [popular thing]?" posts always have the potential to spark new and interesting discussions so I would never discourage those. I would like to see more discussions.
Recommendations, reviews, news, discussions, art, games, videos, and anything else relevant are all great to see too.
r/RedditAlternatives is another one that might be worth mentioning instances on.
One of the founders of Ferrous Systems has answered some questions about it on Hacker News. See here and here.
The spec they created for the certification process is open source. There is some "tiny" amount of the patches that aren't public but it sounds like it is essentially a recent stable release of Rust because the other major changes have been contributed upstream. It's not clear if they definitely plan to eventually release the rest of thier changes as open source or not but they will consider it.
I recommend Waistline if you use Android. It's on F-Droid.
The barcode scanner uses a community run database (Open Food Facts) for nutrition facts so you might find that you need to manually input items or correct outdated info more often than compared to the more popular My Fitness Pal. Obviously that gets easier once you build up a collection of your usual foods in the app.
They provide games to claim each week as part of the paid Amazon Prime subscription. So they are "free" if you already have another reason to have Prime.
I see, thanks. I'll have to keep an eye out for whenever it cycles back around onto one of the streaming services I subscribe to.
I skipped this because remakes are usually bad. Is it worth checking out?
I think you can edit your post on Lemmy to correct it.
In addition to fast and reliable authentication in an emergency, the other issue smart gun manufacturers need to pay attention to is how secure they are. For example, here is a video showing a security researcher thoroughly defeating a different type of smart gun with methods that allow unauthorized firing and even preventing the owner from firing.
Still it's interesting to see the tech develop from science fiction to something real.
Not enough people know about that very useful website. Although I think that Lemmy should have this kind of complete search as a native feature without needing to go to a third party website.
