Oh for petes sake.

War never changes.

Even as a kid watching that I remember being like “wait what… really?”

Ensign Sonya Gomez over here thanking the replicator

TNG “Q Who?”

SONYA: Hot chocolate, please.

LAFORGE: We don’t ordinarily say please to food dispensers around here.

SONYA: Well, since it’s listed as intelligent circuitry, why not? After all, working with so much artificial intelligence can be dehumanising, right? So why not combat that tendency with a little simple courtesy. Thank you.

It was this thing. Ages ago. https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-gear/camping/earl-rugged-revolutionary-tablet/

The Earl Tablet.

Connections, the Day The Universe Changed, The Secret Life of Machines, and Beakmans World. TLC before it sucked was awesome.

Agreed. I also see them all over youtube videos and stuff and I just can’t keep reading/watching. Its not like an ideological thing, i don’t hate generated art. I just find it so distracting.

Its fun with minimal bullshit.

That reminds me I need to buy some land in bozeman montana.

Yeah you kinda nailed it.

Lemmy taught me that I wasn’t just running away from Reddit, but from the kind of content sites like Reddit engender.

I dont get the hysteria, personally.

I came here to escape the crowds, not migrate with them.

It is a long road, getting from there to here. I say make your own way. I have opinions about Trek that the larger community seems to disagree with pretty strongly but meh.

My unsolicited lukewarm take/advice is; don’t let them tell you whats good and whats bad, decide for yourself. Just like Star Wars theres a lot to love, and sure a lot to criticize. Sometimes criticism is fun, but I’ve long since left behind fans who make their entire relationship with the franchise about how bad X or Y is. Its exhausting.

For sure. Nobody hates Star Trek more than Star Trek fans.

I appreciate that he managed to make both Star Trek and Star Wars fans very angry. That took serious skill.

You can take my steamtroller when you pry it from my cold dead hands. Fucking love that thing. Not just for gaming either, couch computing is all possible via the steamtroller. LOVE IT.

Hahaha, why no python?

Adafruit was rolling through runs of ~70 per day for a while. First come first served. Dunno if they still are. I’d suggest setting up a stock alert with them.

I snagged one for my Beepy. They were so strict about scalpers they made me set up 2fa so they could verify my account.

Lotus eaters was fantastic. More of that please.

All mac computer lab (rev a/b iMacs), locked down with foolproof. No problem; bring a zip drive and boot from it by holding down option at startup. Use resedit to edit the extension for foolproof and remove all its resources. Extension no longer works.

Reboot into a completely unrestricted finder. Good times.
