OK maybe I'm finally, finally, actually, really getting rid of Windows. Bazzite has been treating my Steam catalogue well enough thus far, fingers crossed!

@scribus Bazzite is great for gaming! it also has extra patches for proton, and Proton Plus built in if you need it!

@rustystringspony Yeah, I needed to turn power save off for the wifi but other than that, so far pretty good

Hey guys I just wanted to talk about FIM so... So far I reached the cutie map part 2 and so far I think season one and two were my fav I feel like season three and four were decent and the rest was mid for me I feel like there's some things that were repeated from previous episodes overall first three seasons 8.1/10,9.8/10 and 9/10 respectfully

@derpityhooves It's been years I've seen the series. You have a treasure trove of content to enjoy. Later it gets also pretty mixed but still quite solid. Once you've seen it all (FIM episodes, films, Equestria Girls spin-off, Pony Life), I also highly recommend the comics. They aren't in canon or at least very questionable in that regard because they contradict in some points, however once you get over these details and accept as its own thing there are plenty of good stories to enjoy (and a few atrocious blunders with their own train wreck quality and entertainment value).
-
@adiwan yeah I'll be sure to do that and after all of FIM I'll watch G3

OK completely unrelated to server setup bile, but I seriously didn't feel as much like we were facing The End after 9/11 as it looks for COVID-19. Just about think there were more flights in the air, too.

I continue to find myself surprised by my aim. Today I shot a long gun for the first time and even though my stance was probably awful my spread was tight.

@scribus do you know if SKS rifles are OK? I imagine not because of the bayonet, and I know Yugoslav modells aren’t because of the grenade launcher apparatus
-
@awl Grenade launcher model is a very definite no-no, but I'm not finding anything about the bayonet; it's actually looking like a "maybe" that hinges on whether or not the magazine is detachable
-
@scribus I either think of the Russian or Yugo carbines explicitly when thinking or hearing of the SKS, which all had internal magazines

I could swear on my life 40 was spelled fourty and not forty. I have known English for the majority of my life and for some reason I Mandela-effected myself into believing that it was written with a *u*. It made more sense because of the *u* in fo*u*r. Without the *u* it looks like an adjective to the word "fort", like "Your forty house is well-secured against a horde of zombies."
about a year ago from web-
@awl The way we spell "forty" is stupid. Like it's "Four" and "Fourteen" so it really should be "fourteen"
-
@elli It's really so common and obvious that we could probably stand to officially change it, I mean it's not like Webster's is making the rules, nothing but convention and mental inertia behind it
-
@elli no we don’t let foreigners dictate how we spell words. English is to never change ever.

7 hours into my 32th birthday I've already caused all sorts of romantic chaos, had my crush hint very overtly that she would like me to fight with her boyfriend over her (won't, she made her choice) and had a drunk gay friend confess to me in an absolutely obsessive, self-destructive and pathological way (which would have been really hot if it was a girl)
It's turning out to be a VERY eventful day and I'm very happy for it.
I joined this place when I was 18 and I'm glad I haven't mellowed out at all in that time. Here's hoping in another 14 years things will be just as crazy still.about a year ago from web-
@adiwan Pretty sure I'm not! but it's a funny life for certain and I put in a non-insignificant amount of work into keeping it that way.

@pandaexpress Around that long yeah, glad to hear it came around for you in the end.
I've been pretty well all around. 2017 was kind of a mess but other than that, there have been a lot more upsides than downsides. Some losses sure, but death is unavoidable, all that is within my control ticks under my rythm and that's all that matters to say life is good.
Made a lot of friends, got new certifications and a different job, dropped my ex and had a lot of fun these last 8 years. All I can possibly complain of right now is that the stock market is not as good as I'd wish lol.Emily likes this. -

Well I'm trying to do a House-aligned playthrough of Fallout: New Vegas, but I very really truly hate him and the terrible asshole things he says :-/
Sunday, 23-Feb-25 20:07:17 UTC from web-
@scribus Interesting, he's my favourite faction to side with on the grounds of pragmatism, he's the only one with a plan (and the actual capability to make it happen) to make humanity go anywhere other than "we'll just be hobos in perpetuity"
He might not be incredibly likable, but in a survival scenario that's irrelevant. -
@nerthos Yeah, I want to not hate him - I mean, a retro-future spaceVegas? Hell, yeah!! He's not even that unlikable, there's a wry sort of amusement to his bearing. But he's too egocentric; he's not preserving humanity, he's feeding his ego and seeking to create a thrallhood underclass to prop HIM up. Ultimately, I don't consider him sufficiently distinct from Caesar. Both cling to old-world ideals and play up some fantasy of the "inevitability" of "their" power. So, I kill him, take his city, and in my mind carry on with developing the space plans in a little more cooperative, ground-up fashion. (Though in all honesty a spacefaring future would be just as hellish as the vaults so iunno w/e i guess lol) Also I make The King governor or something :p
-
@scribus That all sounds good until you factor in the kind of human resource you're dealing with in Fallout. Ironically the tv show is the best illustration of this, with the main character trying to behave like a civilized person and consistently getting banana'd by everyone.
House's narcissistic approach is a necessity in the world he's operating, without the army of robots forcing the wastelanders to work at gunpoint nothing will get done (example: they're still living in shacks near 200 years after the war)
Plus, he has civilized some factions already, so it's not like he won't uplift the competent and decent wastelanders into better positions. He has to do that for any space settling plan to work, since good people are needed to populate those colonies.
Sometimes, a competent megalomaniac is the only option that can get the job done.

The backpack I'm using for over 15 years is still holding well enough but I feel like I've grown out of it. It was fine for a good while but my use-case has shifted dramatically. Nowadays I use it for holding all my bike stuff and for some emergency storage whenever my shopped items don't fit in my bags. The stuff I have in my backpack right now gets more in the way lately because the items are oddly shaped for the compartments they are. A poncho, umbrella, small first-aid kit, repair tools, hand pump, tote bags, paper tissues, N95-masks, pens. I wish I could sew one myself.
Thursday, 09-Jan-25 20:02:27 UTC from web-
@awl I use my backpack almost exclusively when I use my bike. So my needs are pretty much the same all the time. On good weather days I don't need to carry an umbrella or poncho but they will be definitely not there when I actually need them if I don't have it always packed. I hope I don't overpack. I was once thinking about carrying a set of new chain and hoses but these might be overkill as I would need more time to fix that than to push the bike back home.

@awl I just have good ol' ordinary rim brakes that are attached to a bowden tube. Also my hub gearing brakes when backpedaling.

@scribus yeah you’re far enough down south people would lose their banana over it. I had seen them off the north shore last two years living in the car.

Anyone claiming a smartphone or tablet can replace a regular computer is a delusional fool who has not tasted the power and freedom that a computer offers. I tried catching up on my tablet and it made me realize once again how limiting and cumbersome touchscreens are and how android is not making it easy navigating anything and its ecology is not geared to power users. Autocorrect and predictive text blocks are mere crutches and poor imitations of the feats one can do when mastering touch typing on a physical keyboard. I coould learn doing that on a screen keyboard but doing so blindly is verging on the impossible.

@adiwan Extremely agree. It feels as though smart phones and tablets have become ever more restrictive. I do value the constant connectivity, but my phone could never possibly replace my computer.
