I don’t really follow him, but from the times I’ve seen him pop up, he’s also funny.

Seems like a great dude all around.

Honestly, I think bringing children into this world right now is irresponsible. But that’s my opinion

HBO Max formerly Max formerly HBO Max formerly HBO Now formerly HBO Go.

Edit: I forgot one.

And in this one, if you move the stick back and forth wrong, you can spin out.

It’s pretty janky, but you can get used to it.

I love NMS, and I think it’s a better game than Starfield overall. But they’re extremely different.

All of your criticisms are spot on. The only thing is disagree with is the story. I thought it was alright. Some of the side quests were great, but there weren’t a lot of those.

I really enjoyed the ship building, but it was extremely limited and unbalanced.

I will say the loading screens didn’t bother me, though.

Well the Corolla will be built better, for sure.

I’ve always been a mid-range gamer. When I was younger, that’s just what I could afford. As I’ve grown older, I didn’t see the point of spending more for high end. Mid-range already feels too expensive. But luckily, the parts last for 5 years easily.

Dropping the Windows tax means being able to offer computers for cheaper prices, which is attractive to consumers. Several companies are offering Linux these days.

When I was 5 or 6, my grandmother got a NES and three games. One was Crystalis.

Me and my two cousins played the game in turns, and we eventually got to the first boss, which was quite an achievement because there are puzzle elements to the game.

We could not beat this boss. Several years later, I have my own NES and I borrow Crystalis. I’m pretty sure I got to that boss again and realized something. Hitting him produced a sound that no other monster had. It sounded like hitting solid glass. I finally intuited that I wasn’t strong enough and leveled up to level 3, and wouldn’t you know it, I beat the boss.

It’s one of my all time favorite retro games. It was so ahead of its time. Worth playing if you’ve never tried it.

Linux is still not ready for mainstream consumers

Jorge Castro of Universal Blue likes to say that the average person doesn’t install operating systems, and I fully agree with him.

People rock what comes installed on their computer. Anyone who installs an OS them self is not an average user.

I think we’ll see the average user start to choose Linux as more and more manufacturers ditch the Windows tax and ship computers with Linux.

Check out Tailscale. It uses Wireguard under the hood, but it’s magic.

Shit-yeeting grin.

I can’t imagine how scared you are. I know it’s gotta be tough.

Fucking Susan Collins…

containers should be immutable and not be able to write to their internal filesystem

This doesn’t jive with my understanding. Containers cannot write to the image. The image is immutable. However, a running container can write to its filesystem, but those changes are ephemeral, and will disappear if the container stops.

Texas would be a pretty awesome place, if not for all the Texans. They’re insufferable.

This happened near me. It made the rounds on the local Facebook page with a photo of the dog eating the meal.

I’m not a stock market person. I know fuck all about it.

But I’ve been watching the stock for a while now, and that’s the only conclusion I can come to. Someone has to be buying shit loads of the stock to keep it afloat.

I’d been a Windows user for around 30 years and I’d probably qualify as a fanboy. I’m sure I hit all seven stages of grief to some extent over Windows’ enshittification.

But switching to Linux has given me all the good feelings about my computer. So I’m good now.
