Pandorum was fantastic. I need to watch it again.

• Pajamas shouldn’t leave the house.

• Unique names and unique spellings of names are terrible. There should be a government approved list of names to choose from.

• Religion is the worst thing humanity has made up.

• Waterworld is a fantastic movie.

• Linux > Windows.

Nah. It’s fine. I ended up taking an extra year to get my BSME. Nobody has ever once questioned that on my resume. Luckily, a few of my friends continued on to graduate studies, so I still knew a few people that last year.

For a long time, I thought it was Fedora Core 4. I did use that, but I recently found my old burned CDs of Mandrake 8.1. That really took me back. I might install it on a VM for some nostalgia.

🎶Too many cooks!🎶

Hulu uses what I’m pretty sure was the ending credit song in the intro. Probably to avoid Teardrop royalties or something. I hate it so much, I didn’t finish the series last time I tried to watch it.

Tried it November of 2024, ended up switching to Mint with Cinnamon, zero issues since.

Dell XPS 8930

i7 9700 (no K)

32GB ram

NVidia RTX 2060

240gb ssd

2tb hdd

That exact issue is why I stopped using KDE. I never did figure it out.

I’d say the sum of their organs and borrowing power of their credit score.

Right? Children should be minted as on the block chain. They’re basically NFTs.

I figured something out. Used Sunshine/Moonlight to basically VPN in while it’s in 1920x1080 and changed it to 1280x1024. Now, it remembers that’s the resolution when that’s the only monitor.

Well, I’ll give that a try, too then. Thanks for investigating! At least it’s not just me that can’t get it to work.

I still have my copy. I cannot believe that song is like, 18 years old now. It was such a staple of my college experience.

I’ll definitely check out OPL-PC-Tools, thanks! HDL Batch Installer just hangs on open, checking for updates. I have been running Mint since November. I can’t get OPL manager to launch at all. Regular Wine, Proton, nothing. I’ve tried brand new prefixes with fresh .NET runtime, it just refuses to start.

The ONLY thing I still apparently need Windows for is running OPL Manager and HDL Batch Installer for my Playstation 2 hard drives. Can anyone point me in a direction of Linux alternatives? I managed to get WinHiip running in Wine, but it can’t see the PS2 HDD from Wine. Pretty sure I need something that runs native, and for the life of me I cannot find anything. Which is really surprising to me.

I’m surprised I don’t see Battlestar Galactica or Star Trek Next Generation here yet.

I sooo wanted to rewatch that. But I just cannot get past the special effects these days. I thought it was great when it was on, now it’s unwatchable for me. It’s like, Playstation 1 cutscenes: the show.

I don’t know. I live a good female lead. Ripley, Furiosa, Marge Gunderson. There’s so many, that’s just the first three that come to mind. Half the time when I’m playing Fallout, it’s female characters.

There are definitely bad female leads in things, too. Just like there are bad male leads. Like, Borderlands 3, basically unplayable. I never finished it. And I really want to be clear, the characters aren’t bad because they are women, they are bad due to poor writing. That game had such potential, but it felt like the script was written entirely by highschoolers.

How are you doing? This is pretty big news.

Oh, no. Not at all. All hope is lost, this is just a comfortable place to die.
