I hope that film wins awards, genuinly good sci-fi made by people who understand movies and dont just fix it in post. It fealt real, the sinple trick of not having sound if the camera is not in a place with atmosphere is one of the most important little details. 2001 gets it right, Firefly gets it right, but if you can hear lazers in space, your just bring a wizard in 0g.

That was for the advanced classes, if you were the kids being passed so you wern’t “Left Behind” (like myself), you got nothing. Cool science classes cost money and they just want you to pass the tests so they didn’t lose their funding.

Well… If Mr. Alighieri is to be believed, Chiron is gainfully employed.

The more recent issues have been fiddly display problems along with multiple instances Proton_GE running at the same time not being reliable as they were in the last version and more broadly it has been issues attempting to get Davinci Resolve to run correctly, but thats going to hopefully be fixed by the hardware upgrades (GPU, switching from an old rx 6700 to a lightly used 3090, there are known compatibility issues with AMD GPUs). Was thinking something Fedora or arch flavored, just for a change of scenery.

Been trying cosmic for a few weeks now, cant say its my jam. Got some hardware upgrades to do sooner or later and want to try something new and will install a new OS around then, open to recomendations.

Hi Gus!

What sad times these are.

When ruffians can go around saying Ni allowed to old women.

Its a Larian game, the fully voice acted cast is too big for one playthrough. DOS2 requires 2 runs to hear everyone. BG3 requires 3 (2 origin characters and 1 durge run).

Users: rarely, mostly bots or service accounts that post too much and clog the feed.

Subs: all the time, half are because i’m dum and can only read english, the rest are because they are from an instance/sub I dont want to hear from anymore. (Looking at the .ml and hexbears of the platform)

I would imagine the Great Cornholio has conflicting feelings.

On one side. Fire!

But the other, no TP for his bunghole…

Where are you referencing that from? From the internet era its used in the Tribes franchises quick-chat, but its also from Rockey and Bullwinkle (1950/60s). Any uses older than that are a mystery to me.

There is still a pretty solid divide between us and our technology (for now). We still type on keyboards with our hands and make prosthetics. It gets blury when discussing things through a medium where technology is the means of communication. I could be an AI, you could be a robot, we “humans” already cant really tell the difference most of the time. I think your prediction would hold true when the integration between meat and machine starts being physically indistinguishable.

That is one of the things that irks me so much about the lower 48… The farther south you go, the better the food gets, but the worse off people are…

I was in El Paso for a wedding last year and even a simple road-side BBQ chain was lightyears better than a fancy steakhouse in New England.

No, its too perilous.

Runner who has done a marathon here, I think the wall your hitting is when your body is switching gears from warm-up to cardio. Everyone is suggesting the couch-to-5/10k programs and that may help. I would suggest pushing your time spent running a bit further, more time doing cardio should improve things.

I just restarted my long-run training for the year (because its not cold outside anymore, and I want to run a race this year, its been a bit) and just passed that point where I can just go without having to take walking breaks on my “default loop”.

Also goals, having something to look forward to or to work towards helps a lot. Keep up the good work.

That and the threat of the CEO going full Patrick Bateman on the board.

I actually think the market will beat them too it. Between Sora being taken out behind the barn, the laundry list of layoffs that indicate these companies are getting high off their own supply, and lastly the very real realization that all this “investment” is a massive billion dollar circle jerk.

It looks too bubbly to me, we can only hope the pop happens fast enough that these companies cant cannabalize eachother, but thats wishful thinking.

This is the reason every table top RPG since the 1980s has had intelligence and wisdom labled as different stats.

There is a joy to being along for the ride, plus it makes you replay titles over the long haul. Terraria always comes to mind and my nerds are running through Valheim for this exact reason (the mist lands are rough).

Um… Boss? We were already doing that…
