Kokomo. It’s just the worst.

As many have said, our National Parks are incredible, and even outside of them most of the western US is pretty awe-inspiring. I live in a place where, within an hour or two, I can go to desert badlands, alpine forests, coastal tide pools, and even skiing resorts for decent chunks of the year. I was recently up at 11k ft altitude in the Sierras and at -250 ft in Death Valley a few hours apart. The US is HUGE and big parts of it are still very wild. It’s something worth fighting to preserve.

Edit: Also we can’t read, I am American. Look, I didn’t say the education system was good.

Hey I’m both an annoying Rust user and I also don’t understand the borrow checker. I just put & and * in front of things until it works.

Still a bit. The hairs will recede and the buds will bulk up a lot when it’s near done. Looking nice and healthy so far though!

The Transformers: The Movie

Stellaris with the Star Trek: New Horizons mod is very good.

Why are they looking at his word bubble?

Real talk, I want to try Guix but I have not successfully installed it on any hardware, including VMs. This includes with nonguix for proprietary drivers and stuff. I can never get past install, it always just craps out on some substitution thing. Am I just stupid?

Gaming on Linux is pretty good nowadays. I’ve only run into one or two games I couldn’t get working. The vast majority of games work with Proton right out of the box

Really? You’re entitled to your opinion, of course, but imo Measure of a Man is an incredible acting showcase and a strong premise to display Federation values. Every time I’ve wanted to get someone into TNG, it’s one of my first recommendations and it usually works. What are your complaints about it?

Cats are obligate carnivores. They need meat. A vegan cat is a dead cat.

My TV is 6 years old now and it does 120hz. My PC monitor does 200.

Yeah, motherboard, daughterboard.

The Greatest Generation - Star Trek rewatch podcast. Rekindled my love for the greatest franchise in history. Hosts approach the show from a tv production background

Spout Lore - the best real-play podcast, in my opinion. Dungeon World with incredible world building despite almost everyone being named Greg

Blank Check with Griffin and David - film analysis from the film critic for the Atlantic and Arthur from the Tick / Orko / Watto, covering a director’s entire filmography each series

Marvel by the Month - Reading every Marvel comic, one month at a time. Has a gaggle of comic book industry legends as regular guests, talks about the context in which the comics were written, theme and interstitial music are bangers

It’s still good, as always it has its ups and downs but Ed is a wonderful addition to the show. I saw them live in San Diego a couple (?) years ago, one of the best live shows I’ve ever been to.

An experimental energy storage device exploded down the street, and a couple big chunks of shrapnel came down through the ceiling, smashed the shit out of an empty cube. We were lucky no one sat there.

Similarly, Fender Precision Bass. Hard to go wrong with a classic.

Don’t forget the Confederate rag. Especially in Kansas and Ohio and Wisconsin.

A few, actually.
