Man, I didn’t even realize I was interested in the backstory of the gangsters from Space Jam until just now. I’d like to sign up to watch all of your pilots.

The inclusion of Mycelium as a plant here is very triggering.

You should at least figure out port forwarding, but Plex operates a service that makes that optional. You don’t have to do that or setup a reverse proxy with Plex, it mostly just works near seamlessly.

Yeah, I’m on the side of if it’s legal it should be allowed, but having read about the scene and watched the trailer I think it’s kind of disingenuous for the developer to pretend this was a surprise. Getting that on to steam would be a coin flip even without the recent controversies.

Feels like they’re just trying to use the controversy as publicity.

We have generic tests for the intelligence of birds.

Most famously used on Crows/Parrots, Seagulls are smarter than average and can solve some advanced puzzles, but they’re mostly below Corvids or Parrots. We’ve also tested their memory, they only care about food and can remember places they’ve gotten food and even the faces of people who they’ve got food from year to year, but we don’t think over too much longer periods.

This can vary a lot from Stargate fan to Stargate fan, is Universe quality writing a good thing or a bad thing?

From seeing the people in charge and how they handled the announcement, I’m kind of expecting something in line with SG-1/Atlantis, but looking forward to hearing more about the direction.

Exactly, that is just going to happen, it’s going to gain a lot of traction no matter how good/bad it is, and Disney is going to be implicated because now its ‘official’.

No clue what Disney is thinking here.

Beyond the implications to artists, people are going to get around any guardrails you can set up and when they do it’s going to be on every news outlet and they’ll all be saying that Disney officially approved use of its IP on these platforms.

We only have one episode but so far it’s not exactly young kid appropriate… but it’s not fully adult animation either. The limited gore is slightly disturbing but technically from something comparable to a robot and while it does have some swearing it’s not often.

From my individual perspective as a parent, mine watched it and I’d say around 10 or so, you’d probably be okay. Best practice in my opinion though is always going to be to watch it yourself first and see how you feel.

People have tasted it, they all seem to claim accidentally, the key report is that it tastes ‘metallic’.

Now I feel like our kids are going to discover our posts some day and have to say “It was a different time”.

It’s because of Enterprise contracts, for the things you can check off with HIBP… 4 grand is not a lot for them. But, then also if you offer a separate plan and just say ‘no enterprise, we trust you’, many businesses will just ignore the enterprise plan.

It’s still fun… but it also really makes you realize how much Rocket League relies on fancy graphics/etc.

If I don’t get to hear “Hey you, you’re finally awake” to start my day, I don’t feel like I’m even playing Skyrim.

I used Garuda, and garuda is cool, seriously the first time user experience is fancy, but it’s also a lot and if you need more than basic support you’re probably going to be headed over to the Arch community who is going to treat you different because you’re not really fully on Arch. You’re also definitely going to forcibly learn a lot picking anything arch based as your first Linux distro.

Skipping ahead, of the choices you’ve listed and for someone new to Linux who just wants an OS to use I’d go for Bazzite.

Ancient meme, but that’s why you have to keep a small version of this in your wallet:

The guy who put this together ended up writing a full book based on the concept.

This is one of those things where the likely reason you don’t see a lot of entries as far as DIY goes is that the expense of creating the tooling required to make specific pieces properly is so high that it doesn’t make sense unless you’re going to create a lot of them.

I’m not an expert at aluminum machining at all, but I have commissioned some very small custom pieces. From what little I have had done, I’d expect replicating the pieces for something equivalent to that to be very expensive and unless you’re very lucky, you’ll probably have to make at least a few pieces more than once to account for tolerances/etc.

That’s interesting because they’ve tried to do this several times now and when they tried a few years ago no one found it exciting so it ended up dropped.

I’ve got one on 537 days right now, it’s at 92.4%.

It’s basically lost media otherwise. Every few months, some extra pieces show up and I see some progress… I really wonder about where its coming from. There’s usually 6-8 of us on it and I’ve never caught anyone with 100% online.

Jolla is definitely interesting, but search around, there are caveats.

One notable thing is that until pretty recently they were on a subscription model for OS updates, that turned a lot of people off. I get the need for continued funding, but definitely not something I’d want to deal with on my phone.

Also, for me personally, my phone is partially for work too so it needs to be compatible with that or else I honestly probably don’t really even need a phone. Jolla has some preliminary support there, but there’s no way it could pass our requirements for MDM compliance at my company and I doubt it would for most others. There are things that are non-optional there in relation to audit requirements that a lot of very different companies all have to comply with and it’s just not compatible with the idea. That’s probably going to be the major sticking point for any smaller players trying to break into the mobile market.

I might consider a Jolla tablet if they gave it another shot, but we do have a lot more options in the linux non-phone portable space.
