The main screen is being streamed for free into a VRChat world (and a VR headset isn't strictly required to use VRChat):

The main stage stuff "needs reservations" but that might just be for the in-person stuff, idk. Probably best to check the VRChat and HoloEN socials or your local sapling if you need more deets.

Between when this was first posted (which is when I saw and saved it), the artist decided to change their handle, which is why the one in the pic won't get you to the artist's pages anymore. Not really sure why the sudden change lol.

  • A court has ruled a Hungry Jack's burger did not infringe on McDonald's trademark.

  • McDonald's argued its rival's product could confuse consumers and eat into its profits.

  • A scientist was brought in to weigh the two-patty burgers over the three-year trial.

McDonald's has lost its legal dispute with fast-food rival Hungry Jack's over its Big Mac lookalike burger the "Big Jack".

The American giant had claimed that consumers would confuse the Big Jack with the Big Mac and this would eat into McDonald's profits.

But Justice Stephen Burley ruled against the claim in the Federal Court today.

"Big Jack is not deceptively similar to Big Mac," Justice Burley said.

Welcome to the statistically-likely club!

Honestly I was pretty content with the fees involved when I used it for Euros a couple years back. Afaik the fees aren't trivial but at least they're not steep (unlike e.g., using PayPal to do the same thing) - I didn't really feel robbed but it'll depend on what your expectations are!

I've used Wise (formerly TransferWise) for international transfers a couple of times. They use "mid market" exchange rates so tend to be on the cheaper side as far as total loss of value on a transfer (fees + exchange rate losses).

Admittedly it's been a couple of years since I last looked around at these services though!

Regarding Fedia.io, it’s currently inaccessible as I’m working with developers to debug the problems and sadly symfony exposes way too much in debug mode

Based on what I've heard from kbin instance admins (especially jerry, the owner of fedia.io, where I usually post from when not dealing with errors), it's not an easy thing to keep running in its current state. I imagine if you instance hop sub-100 user kbin instances many of them will end up shutting down or having inactive owners.

For example, feddit.online is kbin instance #6 by user count (yet it's still <100!) and has announced they're shutting down in a couple of months: https://feddit.online/m/feddit/t/66403/SERVER-GOING-AWAY-ON-NOV-26th

To have a stable instance experience without going with a large instance you might have better luck with another AP platform as your home base, whether Lemmy or something else entirely.
