On another note, I sometimes get tired of “Please recommend a good laptop” posts - they’re always just the same old advice: “I liked my Framework” or “Get a Thinkpad”.

I kind of wonder if we could just have an annual mega-post for Linux hardware that gets pinned and mentioned in the server links. For example, “(Pinned) Linux Hardware 2025”. Then we have a rule that you don’t do hardware recommendation posts unless it’s something extremely oddly specific, like “Best Linux hardware for a Pentium II build” or maybe even a question about people’s experiences with VFIO on recent motherboard.

I mean, this might be a bit more your fault in this case, but I agree with the sentiment.

They’re always changing something about the CSS sheets, and I find it a pain to develop for, granted it’s been a few years since I last touched it, and on a very hobbyist level at that. I quickly switched to Qt for that project. Now I use wxWidgets, which I guess just uses GTK, but I like that I don’t have to directly deal with GTK.

Meanwhile, me:

My head canon is there is a different Musk they’re talking about that isn’t a Nazi, and Lorca’s name drop was mirror universe stuff. 😂

Well, this is from Cast Your Pod to the Wind, which is full of rejects from The Else and random podcast tracks - granted some of them are really darn good rejects like “Brain Problem Situation”.

I think my taste is also skewed towards the weird semi-experimental tracks in general - I am a big “If Day for Winnipeg”.

You’ve got quite a bit - it’s in TNG S4, so you’ve still got all of TAS (if you choose. If you’re thinking about skipping, at least watch Yesteryear), the first few movies, and the first three seasons and six episodes of TNG to go before you hit this glorious staple who will last through DS9.

As long as it’s in Debian, I’ll use it.

Honestly, I’m tempted to move This Might Be Lemmy from lemmy.sorld, considering federation issues, if it would be allowed.

Actually, Mirror Chakotay was depicted in Prodigy (along with mirror Janeway). He likes to torture people like any good Terrain boi.

Excuse me. “Boss of Me” is early 2000’s music, thank you very much. 😑😂

I like OpenStreetMaps’s solution. (Though you’ll have to dig a little - they don’t show names for large bodies of water like that by default.)

I do admit that while I found the plot ridiculous, I did find the character’s story interesting. It’s hard to go wrong with holodeck episodes, honestly.

I though of an interesting story based on that where from childhood, someone accidentally lives an entire simulated life based on the real world 20-40 years in the past and becomes a Starfleet officer in the simulation (down to a fake 4 years at the Academy, maybe with holo Boothby). The holodeck then gets shut off by real Starfleet officers. Besides the obvious emotional story, it would also be interesting if the simulation was accurate enough that the person’s experience made the captain decide to make them a provisional officer at the end of the episode.

I would agree season 3 is a great season.

I agree that the species was doomed, but I still feel like repeating a grief story was a bit insane.

I feel like the marketing for Artificial Idiocy comes down to three words: “Resistance is futile.”

As put aptly by one text (which I have yet to read): “When you trick somebody into participating in a small-time fraud, it’s called a ‘scam’. But when the scam is so big that people have no choice but to participate, it’s called ‘economics.’”

Man, I swear in DS9:“Bar Association” that Rom had the 2016 DC Flintstones comic pulled up on his PADD while doing research.

P.S Like the person in the video, I too use Linux.

Wasn’t he always kind of a cartoonish mustache twirler? I mean, he basically invaded Cardassia after the manipulation of his meme-ishly large ego.

The truth is Gowron is a cartoon, and that’s why we love him.

The secret about TNG:“Cause and Effect” is that it took place on February 2nd, 2368. 😉

Rom before becoming Nagus: “One day, Brother will die and I’ll get the money.”

“Generations of warriors from our house have jumped with this jump rope. Use it with honor, my son.”

On a side note, I have no idea if kids these days do jump ropes. Heck, when I was young not too long ago, jump ropes were just those mythical things from the TV - I don’t know if I ever saw one on a school campus (granted, I’m also on the spectrum, so it may have just been I was so bad at physical activities like that that I ignored them).

I’ll just predict there’s a good chance someone’s going to respond something like, “they’re always on them tablets these them days”, to which I say, Yes, that’s a factor in the problem, but I also feel like there’s declining social opportunities for kids in general. If I go on, it’ll turn into a rant that I don’t think fits the tone of Risa.

“…And the worst part is I can live with it.”

Gul Dukat on Empok Nor: I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage called the blood of the exploited working class, but they’ve overcome their shyness; now they’re calling me “your highness”, and a world screams, “Kiss me, son of god.”

Any plot involving Joran Dax: Each night I lie awake, completely alone. A voice is speaking, and I tremble, for it’s not my own, my own. I can’t ignore it, although I try. The intrusive whisper fascinates me.

VOY Endgame: Person from today, here is you in 2082 2404.

Weyoun: My evil twin, bad weather friend.

Murf in PRO: Mysteerious whisper. Mysteeeeeeeeeeeerious whisper.

LD Minding the Mind’s Mines: And what they found was just a statue standing where the statue got me high.

ENT finale: Everybody dies frustrated and sad

When Dukat killed Jadzia (or Rick Berman on the floor of his residence tomorrow 😉): Now it’s over; I’m dead and I haven’t done anything that I want, or I’m still alive and there’s nothing I want to do.
