Made the switch a few weeks ago. Had some installation issues which I think was due to usb things. It might have been graphics but graphics were perfectly fine once installed. Thought I had an issue with appimages but it was a thing with chrome. Mucked around with running outside of steam only to find it had a super steam solution. I have to say I am loving it. I have not really had to change anything as its window manager is laid out in a way that makes getting around easy and its easy to install things if I want. Previously I used an out of the box distro because I liked being able to burn a disc or do other common things right after installation without mucking about but im sold on ease of installation being just as good. I love the idea of the core system being an image and for now its looks like this will be my os of choice. If I change it will likely be because I want to get further away from redhat.

I was watching sanford and son and the clueless cop said hasta luigi to the puerto rican neighbor and I just felt I had to share because I somehow want to start using it as a phrase.

I have been gone awhile. Its a long story. I just got a bazzite install going a bit back and got sto going in the last week or so and slowly have been logging in and refamiliarizing myself with how to play and my build. I forgot how much I loved my scitorp and I can't wait to play the last two seasons of episodes I have missed. I actually loved ground and will have to get used to that with the episodes.

Im wondering if there are any other immutable gamine distros besides bazzite. in particular im wondering if immutables use any other base. I swear I thought suse was doing custome type things long ago.

So this is a question I think about and tonight an episode aired and im likely practically for sure its my favorite scene of any trek. Granted most of my favorite trek scenes involve spock.

EDITED - so glad I made this post. Its cool to see or hear about peoples scenes.

So I have been watching over the air broadcasts lately and mostly reruns of shows. I was amazed at how high a resolution the original star trek was but I remember there was a thing where it was revamped although I thought that was just special effects. then I noticed many other old shoes like I dream of genie also have really great resolution. I noticed some newer shoes though had worse resolution. Heck star trek the next generation seems worse. I have been wondering if this is because of trasition to digital filming. Like the old film I assume might have greater clarity when digitized but when we started filiming in digital maybe it was worse. I could see tv shows doing it first because they figure the resolution going out only had to be so good for the sets of the day. Anyone know about this type of stuff?

So my sisters got me into this drink but the problem is it had to be made in the right way. theoretically it was basically a long island ice tea where the coke portion was replaced by rasberry liquor (schambourg) but doing that does not taste right. I think it did not have tequila and there may have been something with sour or bitter or I don't know what. The key though is it was a drink with a bigger kick than a long island yet literally tasted like you were drinking lemonade (which I know given the name is ice tea is kinda ironic)

So im watching a tos episode and the away team can't contact the ship and the ship is drawn away from the planet. Now I recall this as sorta a common plot device in star trek. communication is not always blocked but basically the ship has to leave the away team on a plane to deal with something. Here is the thing. Why don't they ever launch a shuttle to stay at the planet. I mean maybe more than one. This is especially true come tng where the shuttles I think tend to have transporters. I mean feels like a no brainer to me.

Maybe this has been asked or answered before but im watching the tng episode where wesely takes the starfleet entrance exams and only one person gets it. Im thinking its per quadrant thing but it just seems so nuts that they take so few. Not to mention you would think two or three would be retakers. Was this ever explained?

So been watching the boys and there has been a thing I keep telling my wife about the character she loathes the most. The deep. My feeling is he has the best powers to have in that super hero dystopia. Now im taking from context clues that his powers equate pretty much to aquaman. On land some super strength and resistance. Sorta the "standard level" but can telpathically talk with sea life, super swim speed, can breathe underwater and presumably handle any depth (I think he said he went to the mariana trench), etc. This is the ideal thing to go do your own thing and maybe have some vaught tie ins for cash while keeping arms length distance. Basically do some high profile sea rescues and maybe a business protecting companies vessels. Vaught movies will likely every so often have a water thing and you get a cameo or tie in for some bucks. Stay away from the seven directly and homelander. Have a bunch of sea side realestate across the globe along with secret places in areas no normal person can get to. I mean the easy answer to have homelanders powers but that means having a target on your back. Even if you where not a nutter you gonna be the thing that like every country or such is gonna wann control. Thinking through the other powers I just don't see any that give the freedom of being able to go anywhere in the ocean would along with the sea life telepathic communication and control as a bonus.

There has been this thing where a user seems to be able to make special posts that don't follow my feed format including bluring nsfw when my setting says not to but also making them pop out over the rest. I very much am big on user control of their experience. Is this something that actually happens. Can it be blocked or overwritten or something? Only thing I can think to do is block users who do whatever causes it.

Undead is already an indeterminate state between dead and alive so he is saying he is between alive and an indeterminate state. Hes undead.

Sorta due diligence on reaching out. Got a possible refererral but us and chances they take the insurance is low (im from the us). Been an effort over months to go see the doc but the thing im worried about is depression but maybe also other things because of family history and such. got to work on looking into the referal but also tax time. Owed a pretty decent junk of change considering I effectively made no money last year. A lot of it state because its tax is not progressive.

I have heard people talk about tagging people instead of blocking them and I did not think much about it. I had a person with a one month history though who had some comments that had me evaluating them for a block. Their history is just to small atm. So I thought. Hey this would be great for some sort of tag like under review or probation or something so I can remember to evaluate down the line. I looked around but did not see anything. I think its very possible people are talking about something that is specific to an app or maybe lemmy has it. On the other hand maybe I am just missing how to do it. So this is a question or an ask depending.

So I have been seeing tos reruns and im just boggled by the skirts. Its like anime fan service as you get glimpses of starfleet standard issue panties. Im sitting here thinking. How did I not notice how short they were as a young boy growing up. Like I knew you saw a lot of leg and they were short but feels like wow seeing it now. My best guess is given broadcast resolution back in the day and having a tv under 20 inches and the fuzzyness of analogue rabit ears. Maybe it was not so noticable. Now im seeing it though on HD broadcast to a 90 inch screen and its like. yowzaa!! Seriously its like a live action anime.

My apologies to the many folk both in an out of the us that hate the stuff just pervading anywhere but im watching the talking on tv and it hit me. You could have an rpg for being a part of the administration. Like working in it. Im thinking I could lean heavily on paranoia rules. I will call it bluster and bullshit.

Just saw a crossover episode of martial law.

So I have been curious about the wealth gap between just the two richest folks because it feels to me like the differences are expanding all over even at the extremes. I did this with gemini to so take it with as much a grain of salt as you might like but its a relatively straight forward if tedius task so Im relatively confident it can do it right. Anyway I expected a long term increase over the millenia but instead I see an interesting artificat with today and the dot com bubble. Whats really scary is gates could be seen as a central figure in the bubble and tech to some degree but musk isn't exactly at the center of ai as much as the center of both corporate and government corruption but maybe someone will have another take on that. So the dot com bubble was merely corporate collapse but if this is indicative of a collapse I do believe it will be along more lines.

So I have seen some but this last one it did three in the same prompt (prompt was a question on a video game):
