They don't make 'em like this anymore. That's for damn sure.

Discovered a YouTube channel that recommends sci-fi movies that people may have missed. The Quiet Earth (1985) - really enjoyed this. Super cool ending scene. Freaks (2018) - surprisingly good low budget film. I thought the child actor was great.

What difference does it make? I thought Carol has to willingly accept conversion?

I don't believe this is the finale. Season is 10 episodes, the one that just dropped is #9.

Shazbot! That's all they had to do. Just make up something.

I do enjoy both of these series, but I really wish they'd cut out the contemporary swearing.

If you stay within the Steam ecosystem then about 90% of everything "just works". No need to fiddle with anything.

Totally agree. I don't care if it's "in the comics!". There's also versions of Kara where she's not a piece of shit. How about a big-titty Power Girl? I'd buy that for a dollar!

Nothing about this trailer makes me want to see the movie.

Yeah, I enjoyed the episode quite a bit. Wasn't bored. And holy fuck those trees. Right out of some alien planet.

If it's another CRPG, I was hoping for a new IP and setting.. something other than fantasy again. Maybe steampunk, cyberpunk, or similar.

I think Thursday is it's regular release day.

What did Carol see!!!?!?

I find the open world content just endlessly enjoyable. Combat mechanics make it especially fun. Like I said above, best single player MMO of all time.

I don't follow. How can you test a truth serum on yourself by yourself? She just seemed completely confused and delusional to me.

What was the purpose of that drug test on herself?

I think GW2 is the best single-player MMO. I just do my own thing and pretty much ignore everyone around me.

Yeah, I would think any threat to the collective would mean instant elimination. I like the show so far, but wondering what the social commentary is. To me it seems like an allegory of AI and robotics.

Wow that last few seconds. How is that allowed?

I think they did like 'em fat back then.

For those of you using CachyOS, have you had the desktop interface completely freeze up (I'm using Plasma)? You think the computer has frozen, but it's still alive -- caps lock will still toggle the light, and if you CTRL-ALT-F2/F3 you will eventually drop to a command prompt instance where you...

This latest episode had me crying from laughing so hard. Him freaking out over the cops at his house was so over the top.

How is character progression handled? What about items and gear? Do they carry over to subsequent runs?

My question is, would children be using it liberally? I don't know. Just saying, as a kid during the 80s, I was pretty much oblivious to that word.

OMG. "F" word means "fuck". Good grief.

I thought this was fine. Disappointed if there were actual deaths at the end because I liked those kids. One thing I really dislike is the use of anachronistic swearing in period settings... it completely takes me out of it. Or maybe I was just sheltered as a child, but I don’t remember...

I wouldn't mind seeing a series with older versions of the heroes, like in Kingdom Come. Although I imagine it wouldn't appeal to younger viewers (but begs the question does the current stuff appeal to them? Seems not.)

I don't know, I enjoyed it. Ending was rather 'meh' though.

I used to build Gentoo from source. I think that's how it worked.

Are you running the Plasma desktop? Linux Mint's default is Cinnamon which I quite like. But decided to try out Plasma and it's pretty kick ass. I've never been a big fan of KDE, but it's been years since I've played with it.

I did an upgrade during Prime Day, got a new B850 motherboard and Ryzen 9 7900x. I typically go with Linux Mint, but...here we go: audio wasn't working. Apparently lacks support for the new Realtek ALC4080 chipset and I could NOT get it to work. So, installed the new flavor of the month...

The Mist is one of my favorite horror movies. Short story it's based on was great as well.

It's all long term. I sold enough to cover my original investment plus a tiny bit of profit.

We had another RIF this week. The test department manager and a couple of senior testers were let go, while the devs went untouched.

That's why I came to despise Windows 11. Inconsistent look of the menus and dialogs. Just a mishmash of new and old styling.

Need some advice: I hold several positions that have become very lofty (significantly appreciated). I’m reluctant to sell outright, but I recognize the need to lock in some profits. Instead, I’m considering selling covered calls on a portion of these positions. If I were selling shares...

Yeah for me it was local, so it was wide open.

We were coding in Lua for OpenWRT based routers. Dude was using vi for that coding directly on the router. I just mapped a sshfs drive and used Webstorm with a Lua plugin. Not a big deal.

What if I want to find all references to a public method? What if I need to dig into a base class and explore its overrides? What about debugging... can you step through the code and view variable assignments, etc?
