gnuplusmatt,

Discovery also seems to employ the dimensional technology that the pod from the future employed on Enterprise, being much bigger on the inside

gnuplusmatt,

the cruel irony is that the only reason that Kelpiens are even spacefaring is because Discovery intervened the previous season, in that regard Discovery caused the burn

gnuplusmatt,

Yeah but the season 3 finale took it to a new extreme

gnuplusmatt,

The Klingon merchant on Tulgana IV definitely has the Lursa and B’ETor sound going on, I’d be surprised if the voice actress wasn’t wearing Klingon teeth

gnuplusmatt,

The Enterprise theme actually played over the end credits - was called “Archer’s Theme”

gnuplusmatt,

Yes endgame was good, but fuck if people aren’t now comparing the “weekly episodes” to what was essentially the epic 2 part seaon finale.

spoiler plusseason 2 of Loki was as good as anything they’ve done___

gnuplusmatt, (edited )

I’m not defending negative nellies - but its is possible to enjoy something and still criticise it. You’ve attacked me in the past for having a minor criticism. I’m not going to block you over it, I just think twice about whether I want the hassle, but maybe that’s just me

gnuplusmatt,

I liked the “He looks like Tom Paris” back and forth, I’m glad they didn’t do something hokey like he’s Tom Paris’ cousin or something. I liked the flashback showing Mariner as the tag along first year, worked better than just telling us in the previous episode, that flashback probably should have been attached to episode 9.

I kept expecting William Boimler to show up before the end of the season, guess they’re holding onto that thread for next year

gnuplusmatt,

I assume it was because you were tracking down instances of Klingons hugging?

gnuplusmatt, (edited )

They’re constantly expanding the Active Directory schema and adding a lot of cool new features to Active Directory

you mean by letting it rot and become a security nightmare while trying to force everyone to move over to azureAD/entraID?

gnuplusmatt,

The flatpak size disadvantage is negligible in the age of terabytes

the issue is overstated as most flatpaks use the flatpak platform runtimes and share their own libraries in a similar manner to the host, yes its separate libraries, but its not dozens of disparate copies like some detractors of flatpak seem to state

gnuplusmatt,

that’s the beauty of distros, those that want traditional package structure can still use a distro that does.

Even the current flatpak first distros like OSTree spins of Fedora (Silverblue, Kinoite et al) provide mutable containers for using any package format you like.

gnuplusmatt,

Microsoft is a cloud provider these days, Windows doesn’t make enough money, that’s why they are desperate to monetise already paying customers.

Azure/entra or whatever the fuck they call it this week is where the real money comes from

gnuplusmatt,

pretty much a 3rd of my steam library…

If I had to pick one, maybe Kerbal Space Program

gnuplusmatt,

AGIMUS’s drones were reminiscent of the drones from Arsenal of Freedom

gnuplusmatt,

I was hoping for Prime, but their kids offering is pretty anemic compared to Netflix. With the cost of Netflix it only gets a few months a year in our household too

gnuplusmatt,

This is how the renfair types on Hysperia talk.

Billups would not be impressed

gnuplusmatt, (edited )

borg completely absurd and ridiculous (sex suits instead of armour? High heels?)

I always assumed that was the doctor playing dress up and she wasn’t individual enough to contradict it. Once she came back to the Alpha Quadrant she clearly got some fashion sense

gnuplusmatt, (edited )

I drive an EV (not a tesla) and I agree. I have it primarily because its cheaper to run… My ancient previous car didn’t owe me anything, I ran it into the ground.

gnuplusmatt,

I’m asking from a desktop perspective.

my second monitor is rotated

gnuplusmatt,

More for tiling 3 windows across it, or editing a long document

… I have played raiden on it a few times

gnuplusmatt,

Check out Distrobox or Toolbox

gnuplusmatt,

Year of the Linux desktop for most users is always n+1

For me it has been since 2012.

gnuplusmatt,

It looks like they will add a subscription edition, doesn’t necessarily mean current editions will go away. If they don’t offer free upgrade again, for a lot of people they will need to decide to either buy a full license or roll a subscription.

There is not a lot known here tho, will Windows be part of the existing 365 subscription? Will OEMs offer a full license any more? Or will it be a trial before adding a sub or license.

No one knows

gnuplusmatt,

And there’s that feeling of dread when you remember you will die one day

gnuplusmatt,

not to be that guy, but on Enterprise they were called hand scanners or just scanners

gnuplusmatt,

These drops have been so good. I’ve managed to get all the hero ships in regular size, even the Cerritos which I thought I’d missed my chance on. I missed regular DS9, but I am tempted by the XL in this drop…

gnuplusmatt,

buy the discs to show Paramount you’re interested?

gnuplusmatt,

This is one tangible draw back to being on the fediverse instead of mainstream social media - no one at companies are going to be watching or considering engagement here. So if it sort of locks us out of fan noise. I guess keep streaming it

gnuplusmatt,

The Original 4400 got cancelled on a cliffhanger. I refuse to watch the reboot

gnuplusmatt,

Good talk on the subject Benno is very engaging

gnuplusmatt,

Why would I want those extra features in my torrent client? My transmission runs in a container and does its job

gnuplusmatt,

My private tracker has multiple transmission versions on their approved list 🤷‍♂️

gnuplusmatt,

Quantumania got a bad rap, but I actually enjoyed it. It was pretty CG heavy and that detracted from it a bit, but it was still fun and an interesting episode to start what ever season we’re up to now.

gnuplusmatt,

Didn’t get it until July this year. The kids brought it through the house in 2021, by some miracle of vaccination the wife and I didn’t catch it then. Then the wife brought it home. Was pretty mild for both of us. We’ve kept our boosters up and we’re in Australia so it didn’t go nuts here until omicron

gnuplusmatt,

potentially dipping your hand in the toilet bowl

Only in those strangely deep american toilets

gnuplusmatt,

deep water, as in strange high water line, not deeper bowl

gnuplusmatt,

Pipewire has been great, except for some edge cases

Still got passthrough issues 2years later

gnuplusmatt,

that diagram is amazing, needs to be updated for Coda tho - which would put lines everywhere…

gnuplusmatt,

I enjoyed Coda, but if there was a time to take a hatchet to characters and storylines, that was the time. I understand why they did what they did.

gnuplusmatt,

Still no actual premiere dates other than “November”?

gnuplusmatt,

the money is drying up, gotta find new ways to monetise

gnuplusmatt,

without hashtags, I cant discover anything on bluesky, its made discoverability so much harder than mastodon imho

gnuplusmatt,

If governments the world over were as obsessed with solving things like the climate crisis and cost of living as they are with undermining encryption techs, we’d be living in a utopia by now.

They tried this here in Australia, luckily for us it got voted down. Iirc there’s been other countries trying the same BS

gnuplusmatt,

it is my understanding that our sucky Assistance and Access Act, is fundamentally different, it compels developers provide back doors where it will not systemically undermine the system. To my understanding the UK one requests “breaking” e2ee in its entirely - which is why services like Signal were considering full exiting the region?

gnuplusmatt,

Hey Beavis… Eheheh, I’m a skull now. This kicks ass!

Did we kill Linux's killer feature?

A few years ago we were able to upgrade everything (OS and Apps) using a single command. I remember this was something we boasted about when talking to Windows and Mac fans. It was such an amazing feature. Something that users of proprietary systems hadn’t even heard about. We had this on desktops before things like Apple’s...

gnuplusmatt,

It doesn’t even need to be a script you could just alias the 2 commands on a single line to a command in bashrc

gnuplusmatt,

The video is from Paramount Plus, who don’t currently have the rights to Prodigy, even though the parent company does. If they included it in their promotional material it would effect their ability to either sell those rights to someone else or write the show off for tax purposes.

It’s convoluted and stupid, but running your streaming service as a separate entity is how all the studios have it rigged up. Accounting ftw
