Real talk, I want to try Guix but I have not successfully installed it on any hardware, including VMs. This includes with nonguix for proprietary drivers and stuff. I can never get past install, it always just craps out on some substitution thing. Am I just stupid?
Gaming on Linux is pretty good nowadays. I’ve only run into one or two games I couldn’t get working. The vast majority of games work with Proton right out of the box
Really? You’re entitled to your opinion, of course, but imo Measure of a Man is an incredible acting showcase and a strong premise to display Federation values. Every time I’ve wanted to get someone into TNG, it’s one of my first recommendations and it usually works. What are your complaints about it?
Cats are obligate carnivores. They need meat. A vegan cat is a dead cat.
My TV is 6 years old now and it does 120hz. My PC monitor does 200.
Yeah, motherboard, daughterboard.
The Greatest Generation - Star Trek rewatch podcast. Rekindled my love for the greatest franchise in history. Hosts approach the show from a tv production background
Spout Lore - the best real-play podcast, in my opinion. Dungeon World with incredible world building despite almost everyone being named Greg
Blank Check with Griffin and David - film analysis from the film critic for the Atlantic and Arthur from the Tick / Orko / Watto, covering a director’s entire filmography each series
Marvel by the Month - Reading every Marvel comic, one month at a time. Has a gaggle of comic book industry legends as regular guests, talks about the context in which the comics were written, theme and interstitial music are bangers
It’s still good, as always it has its ups and downs but Ed is a wonderful addition to the show. I saw them live in San Diego a couple (?) years ago, one of the best live shows I’ve ever been to.
An experimental energy storage device exploded down the street, and a couple big chunks of shrapnel came down through the ceiling, smashed the shit out of an empty cube. We were lucky no one sat there.
Similarly, Fender Precision Bass. Hard to go wrong with a classic.
Don’t forget the Confederate rag. Especially in Kansas and Ohio and Wisconsin.
A few, actually.
I’ll rip open Ultra Magnus, and every other Autobot, until the Matrix has been destroyed.
Coronation, Starscream? This is bad comedy.
It’s a pity you Autobots die so easily, or I might have a sense of satisfaction now!
I may have seen this movie more than any other single movie that exists. I can hear his voice in my head. So many great vocal performances.
Trust me, if the parents would have let me punch some holes through the walls to get rid of some heat, I would have.
I was a sophomore in high school, from a military (though pretty progressive) family. Both my grandfathers were sailors and my father went to West Point. I was in NJROTC and had every intention of going to Annapolis. I wanted to be an astronaut, so navy pilot seemed the path, and I would be making my family proud. I happened to be the one to put up the flag at school that morning. All of this is to say that I was very proud to be an American, and was looking forward to serving my country. The terror and confusion of that day hit me as hard as anyone else, but in the following weeks I was appalled to see how my fellow countrymen reacted. The way we reacted, with fear and hatred and overwhelming violence, both within and without, fundamentally changed how I saw my nation. I eventually dropped out of ROTC and started studying history and politics. I found punk music and took theater classes. I identified as social Democrat until the BLM riots of 2020, when I was radicalized. I now consider myself an anarchist.
I loved my FX cpu but I lived in a desert and the heat in the summer coming off that thing would make my room 100F or more. First machine I built a custom water loop for. Didn’t help with the heat in the room, but did stop it from shutting down randomly, so I could continue to sit in the sweltering heat in my underpants and play video games until dawn. Better times.
I was actually pretty surprised by that MK movie. Yes, it’s occasionally a little dumb and I unnecessarily changes things from the established fiction, but much like the original, it’s fun when it’s bad and it’s pretty cool when it’s good. Also Kano is great.
