This sentence starts with an unexplained gun fight! I think explosion! that an over reliance on bass boosted explosion! spectacle and attempting to pass off as intelligent story telling while reusing the same basic bass boosted explosion! plots over and over is killing movies. Not to mention trying to leave everything open for a sequel even if it means ruining and otherwise comp

President Camacho legitimately being a better leader than most IRL heads of state rn. It wasn’t really the guys fault he was an idiot being born at the point of degredation he was and the guy still institutes a state wide intelligence testing program to find the smartest person he can and put that guy in charge.

Super Crooks does this really well too if you haven’t watched it. Its basically the boys in anime form (american anime style) and there are a few moments where colateral damage and even heroes racking up higher body counts than villains gets mentioned.

One way or another I’m moving to Linux for my next PC. but damn I finally think I understand enough to decide Debian would be a good ‘it just works’ distro and then Linux users out the woodwork telling me its actually a pain in the ass and to use XYZ (all disagreeing) distros instead. I’m like 90% sure its going to be Debian, Ubuntu or Mint but beyond that its more uncertain than the inside of a black hole.

iirc dogs do out perform humans but only in cold climates. They’re also second place in general which is a big part of how the whole dog thing got started.

Mass surveillance is here to stay, but the fun part is we can mass surveillance right back.

I still never understood what Cuba actually did that makes the US sanction them to this day. As far as I can tell they were a neutral country actually leaning slightly in favour of the US right up until they were suddenly branded communist (in the soviet sense) and more or less pushed into Russias arms.

I see it as trying to combat the dystopia where not only is our data scraped but now every single thing we write, draw or film is fed into an AI that will ultimately be used to create huge amounts of wealth for very few, essentially monetizing our very existence online in a way thats entierly unavoidable and without consent.

In addition its entierly one way, google and others can grab as much of our data as they want while most of us would have an extremely hard time even getting granted a freedom of information request about ourselves, let alone grabbing a similar amount of data about those same corporations.

Damn OP is lucky, I get the opposite where every once in a while it feels like my brain suddenly downshifted and added a new layer of fog that never goes away, instead I just acclimate to the new feeling of reduced capacity.

You know every time I think I understand enough about Linux to consider moving over an innocent post like this sets me back to square one.

I guess it depends where and when you are in the medieval era. In some places even knowing that steels properties are largely determined by its carbon content and not some other component of the regional addatives would be a valuble insight. In other places they already have metalurgy developed enough for spring steel so even with a degree it might be hard to implement improvements with the other technology available.

The rockets and the gun. I can use the rockets to prove I have useful knowledge while using the gun to prove that my stuff is mechanisms not magic (by taking it apart). I’ll then set about teaching them how to make gunpowder (charcoal, sulphur, saltpeter) and once I’m truly established we can move on to basic firearms.

Eh pathfinder 2e is definetaly better than D&D but 1e is honestly really harsh in terms of character builds.

Its pretty easy to to replace the hard drive in most laptops with an empty one then install either linux or a stripped down version of windows.

My personal issue with github is more the placement of the actual download links, sometimes its harder to find than the real download button on a dodgy pirate site without ad-block.

I think you mean deliberately sabotaged attempts at climate talks for decades.

Damn thats an incredible degree of overreach and looks like it gives established companies the power to take down any rising competitions websites without oversight.

In defense of ‘the computer forgot my password’ guy I’m sure we’ve all experienced the following sequence.

• Incorrect password
• Go to change password
• New password cannot be the same as the old password

GenZ here, I’m alive basically out of spite of not wanting to let the world kill me.

I got to try out a friends and wanted one ever since but can’t afford one :( Most comforotable blanket ever.
