I completely agree. The Orville is a fantastic show that really captures that TNG feeling while still being its own thing through humor.

I’d been using linux for work for a couple years and it was going fine. I had a pretty crappy laptop at home with limited storage and I was constantly wrestling with Windows storing update stuff, installing adware during updates, etc.

I’d heard of proton and about how well it was going with it, so I had an idea linux gaming was possible.

Eventually something happened during a windows update that required I reinstall the OS and I just pulled out the flash drive I used to install linux on my work machine and tried it out. Eventually I did have to dual boot (on a bigger drive) for some games, but nowadays I’m all linux everywhere.

Jesus Christ, that’s a lot of weirdos.

For sure it would’ve been better if things went according to plan. They’ll miss their families too. But I’m just saying, if I were in their place, I’d have the utmost confidence that NASA is going to bat for them and doing anything physically possible to make the best of everything.

I’m certain NASA helped them with a contingency plan in this case. Pretty sure they also planned out if their craft crashed.

Romania is easily explained with the fact that a lot of it is rural and basically everyone living in a village has a cat. There are also stray city cats that people feed that they might consider as theirs.

Turkey and Greece are a bit more surprising to me. I guess people don’t consider stray cats theirs even if they feed them.

He’s beautiful

I really believe that this has nothing to do with kids. “For the kids” has made me suspicious of intentions for a long time. It makes it difficult to argue against it because it implies that you’re a pedo or are doing something illegal otherwise. You implement general monitoring “for the kids”, and then you add some anti piracy stuff to it, then you add some hate group detection, some anti government group detection, etc. Now you have everything you need to get ahead of any danger to the government. If the people can’t organize, you can do whatever you want.

IMO sitting at my desk, watching logs or waiting for something to come in isn’t living my life. I can’t do my hobbies, I can’t play video games, drink a beer, watch a movie, hang out with my friends, etc. Browsing lemmy or youtube isn’t exactly living my life. As long as I’m at that desk, I’m working.

No problem, just give them the money. 😀 👍

Duct tape

I have an Nvidia GPU and aside from the occasional lemon of a driver, I’ve had no issues (to be sure, I don’t use Wayland). I play games through Proton just fine. MHW, Elden Ring, Hunt Showdown, BG3, etc. Unfortunately the games he picked are borked or not listed on protondb. Not sure about Minecraft though, I used to play that just fine.

Great city to visit on vacation, and Krka was beautiful.

Shit, I totally misread the comment and it didn’t click in my head. I didn’t know that’s how JP views IT, learn something new every day I guess!

Doubt it’s the lefties, but it’s for sure the vegans.

How does France factor into it? Spaghetti is Italian, isn’t it?

Misread the comment, see replies

Probably, yeah

I wash all my band shirts in a washing machine at 40C with only color detergent and no fabric softener. I hang dry the tshirts on hangers instead of folding them over the clothes line or using clothes pins. Absolutely no dryer outside of whatever the washing machine does.

It works pretty well. The real secret is to have about 30 of them so you don’t wash them every week.

Edit: like another commenter said, wash your clothes inside out.

They will absolutely try to force the paid feature on you. How many times have you seen the youtube premium prompt?

I don’t live in america but good to know 👍
