This is how we can still have a sequel to Xena: Warrior Princess

I would be shocked if you couldn’t plug it into a dock and use it as a desktop computer too, with keyboard and mouse and monitor. I assume it’s going to be just a computer like the steam deck.

It works great on my m1 mac with asahi. I’d say it’s already pretty mature.

Cuomo is in the cuck chair party.

Assuming NY doesn’t randomize the order, and it doesn’t look like they do from this picture, I think that’s the absolute worst place to be in terms of response order bias. People focus on, and have a bias towards, the first entries, the very last entry, and the corners.

I wouldn’t worry about anything being too old to be supported on linux. Unless we’re talking like 32 bit old, and even then I have void running on my 32 bit thinkpad.

Maybe I’m wrong to be, but at this point I’m so burned out on this entire “you’re going to lose people” class of argument that my brain immediately rejects and discards them.

It can be dismissive, but don’t ignore that linux and by extension FOSS is a philosophy and that’s what we’re really pushing. It’s a little “your real problem is capitalism” dogwhistle if you will.

They only think we’re obnoxious for the same reasons they think vegans are obnoxious. Because we’re right.

When I say “use linux” I’m not just saying “use linux”, I’m saying “use the GPL FOSS ecosystem of software, stop supporting the massive tech companies making all of computing actively worse”

Especially since most of the time people aren’t complaining about windows being accidentally bad, but about windows being actively hostile to the user in a way FOSS will never be, lacking the profit motive.

The what? Who?

The article you linked says rewind 3rd party, opt in, and stored locally. I don’t think anyone would have an issue with microsoft’s AI either if it was opt in and without telemetry.

Until we have equal rights we aren’t going to shut up any time, any where. If you want LGBTQ politics out of pokemon you better fix the problems LGBTQ people are facing.

Depends on how much of a ““power user”” you intend to become. “User Friendly” has come to mean immediately approachable and intuitive, but “User Friendly” to someone who uses a particular program 6 hours a day every day will look like clacking on a keyboard in pretty much every case.

My car is made for it, and the e85 is 1/5th less expensive than standard gas.

Is e85 in a flexfuel car actually Satan or is everyone being a boomer about it?

Is it beans?

I like the idea of riddles in theory, but in practice they’re just tedious. 98% of the time the answer to the “riddle” wasn’t really knowable in the first place. They just want to ask you an essentially impossible question and watch you flounder.

Riddles need to be solvable, unambiguous, and based on tools you would expect your audience to have.

• If, even when I have the answer, I won’t know it’s the answer, your “riddle” is a waste of time.
• If, when I have come up with some other answer, and there is no particular reason it isn’t a valid answer (a common oversight being part of the riddle for example), your “riddle” is a waste of time.
• If your riddle depends on some random piece of sidereal astrological whatever, your “riddle” a waste of time.
• If your riddle is actually the set up for a joke, and you actually make me stand there for multiple minutes thinking about it before dropping the punchline, well, you have to know what you’re doing there.

So if you ask me if I like riddles, I’ll have no choice but to say “no”.

I am very interested! Thank you!

Gentleman pro tip my grandpappy taught me: If you’re a man following a woman on the street late at night, stop and tie your shoe laces together so she knows you won’t chase her!

That’s sort of what I was looking for! Thank you, you gave me a thread to pull.

I’m craving some piece of art that requires you to “meet it on it’s own terms” something that makes you sort of perform it yourself as you experience it. Examples:

-Hypnospace outlaw, a game where you sit at your computer and do computer stuff.

-This tabletop pen-and-paper type rpg I can’t remember the name of, where even the manual is disconnected, surreal, cryptic.

I want something like that, but much… more. I don’t know how to get this idea down. Maybe this will be my inspiration to do something creative for once in my life.
