Hopefully this doesn't affect me

Observers on social media compared the platform’s name “We” to the highly influential 1921 dystopian novel of the same name by Russian author Yevgeny Zamyatin.

They actually couldn't choose a different name than the novel that was written specifically about this very dystopian subject? Did they use it as inspiration? Because that seems more than coincidence...

Did this post receive more engagement than the game itself?...

This game is dangerous...

I played it for the first time yesterday with my S/O, and we looked at the clock only to realize we had played for a little over ten hours straight... only stopping for lunch/dinner

The repacks are compressed, so your computer has to do a lot of work decompressing the files. As long as you're downloading from the real website https://fitgirl-repacks.site/, then you should be good. It'll just take a while.

Is the installer not showing a progress bar?

My contribution - 1990 Volkswagen Vanagon. It is pretty large, but hilariously it's still smaller than a Chevy Tahoe lol.

Aren't the layers in the rock showing that water was definitely present on Mars, and that they're formed by sediment being deposited and forming into sedementary rock over time?

Is this a serious thing? It seems so normal here in the states.

Server to host media. Super easy to set up and can run on a Windows client. Don't even need an independent server to run it on. https://jellyfin.org/

https://kodi.tv/ (or https://libreelec.tv/ for an OS that boots to just Kodi)

Application to watch through Kodi https://github.com/jellyfin/jellycon

Client to run Kodi on: MeLE PCG02 Mini PC Stick https://a.co/d/1EGnekO

If you didn't want to install LibreELEC to the PC and just want to keep Windows, you could run Kodi in Kiosk mode and it would boot directly to it just like LibreELEC.

I have not watched normal TV in years, let alone an ad on my TV. I spoke to my neighbors one day and figured out they were paying ~$60 a month for all their streaming services, and they're STILL getting ads...

Stuff like this is unacceptable, and I refuse to partake in the lunacy and delusion that is modern television.

Lmao I know where that sign is, passed it the other day with my grandmother in the car, and we both had a good laugh

The older Golf was much more iconic than the ones today. I would agree with him.

The episodic rollout of SQ42 is presumed to be a way to inject new cash into the studio alongside reported plans to release higher priced ships and the rumored third game.

What?... Higher priced ships? You've got to be joking...

One of my favorite ships in the game, the Drake Corsair, is already $250. It's a great all-rounder, but it's not even a large ship comparitively! And they're going to start charging more for the newer ships?!

They just released a new ship as well, the RSI Zeus MKII, which is yet another $175. And that doesn't even mention some of the larger ships like the Anvil Carrack, sitting at an insane $600, and the Origin 890 Jump at $950...

And if that's not bad enough, they've had concept ships for years available for purchase in the $1,500-$2,000 range. How can these ships get more expensive?

I've put together two servers for self hosting a lot of services for myself, rather than relying on platforms that continually get worse.

The one on top, a retired Datto backup machine, hosts TrueNAS scale with a bunch of different services (Pihole, Jellyfin, Immich, etc.) and our network shares. The bottom one, Dell PowerEdge R620, runs Fedora server. I plan to use it for locally hosted game servers, but it just runs Minecraft (AllTheMods 10).

I've used knowledge I've gained in the IT space to set up the networks, and even have a VLAN running for an Ubuntu server VM of which I host for a coworker to learn on.

Ventoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drive for ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files. With ventoy, you don't need to format the disk over and over, you just need to copy the ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files to the USB drive and boot them directly. You can copy many files at a time and ventoy will give you a boot menu to select them.

Nice

So if working at McDonald's is now a form of punishment... What's that saying about the job itself even if you are being paid?

At what point can you be paid a low enough wage to where you're essentially working at McDonald's as a punishment for existing? Very weird standard their setting with this decision...

"Comically Incorrect"

Is this satire? Or is the website legitimately ironic?

Edit: I'm not sure... I want it to be self aware, but I don't think it is?

Absolutely not, I would never! I throw my coat away each time I use one, and buy a whole new set at the beginning of the week. What a peasant!

Got this one in Austin. Took it with my phone so it's not that great, but still a super cool moment.
