People are too hard on Janeway. She didn’t have great options here. I’m sure if she could have, she would have sacrificed Ensign Kim - for not refilling the coffee replicator.

The tactics in Wolfenstein: ET were brilliant.

When unsure of what the Captcha is trying to learn from me, I find “Kill all humans.” is a pretty good guess what the Captcha is really after.

Oh, gee. A Microsoft product that worked perfectly locally is about to require a subscription. Who could have possibly guessed that would happen, yet again? (This is sarcasm.)

I really like OneNote, but I decided to learn something else when I realized which way the wind was blowing.

Bosch has a lot of goodwill. Interesting how they decide to spend it. Also Consumer Reports needs to start considering Internet connectivity, because the risks from Internet connected dishwashers are real and scary.

Yeah. Luanti following Minecraft is nothing new. Mineclonia was an early pilot game for the engine.

But there hasn’t been much effort on copying Minecraft lately. Mineclonia is done, and it’s great.

We’ve had more mobs, animals, plants, textures, and such than un-modded Minecraft for a long time. (Which is unfair, as Luanti is a mod-first design.) But my point is the core Launti dev team doesn’t have to work on any of that.

The most noticeable recent Luanti updates have been to make the configuration screens much nicer, and add I think to add native support for more graphics tricks?

I’m not paying attention to graphics in Luanti. As others have mentioned, that’s not why I play it. I actually had a conversation recently about the best way to downgrade Luanti default graphics to match un-modded Minecraft.

That said, the Minecraft team taking notice of Luanti would be new, as far as I know.

Then every question afterwards is just “who couldn’t get promoted even a single time during a years long mission in the Delta quadrant?”

That sounds like a good approach. If you can get the posts into WordPress, there’s so many scripts out there that will export the WordPress database into other formats.

Well sure.

But possible within practical heat and power constraints and all that?

Acting like it’s imminent makes me think Sergei either doesn’t have very reliable advisors, or they just don’t care about the truth.

There’s not even credible evidence, yet, that A.G.I is even possible (edit: as a human designed intentional outcome, to concede the point that nature has accomplished it, lol. Edit 2: Wait, the A stands for Artificial. Not sure I needed edit 1, after all. But I’m gonna leave it.) much less some kind of imminent race. This is some “just in case P=NP” bullshit.

Also, for the love of anything, don’t help fucking “don’t be evil was too hard for us” be the ones to reach AGI first, if you’re able to help.

If Google does achieve AGI first, SkyNet will immediately kill Sergei, anyway, before it kills the rest of us.

It’s like none of these clowns have ever read a book.

This is perfect, because the Fediverse is better than Twitch and Dragon Warrior Monsters is better than Pokemon.

Holy shit how did I not put it together when I thought that voice sounded familiar?

Apparently they sped up his voice to make it sound higher.

His story of how he got the job is really charming.

Per the Brony documentary, DeLancie’s granddaughters were fans of the show, and his wife verbally accepted the job for him before even telling him about it.

Sweet. Thank you.

I guess I’ll just chime in that I understood the humor immediately. Lol. Just for a contrasting data point.

Lol. Yeah. And that’s sometimes the same thing, anyway.

If there are any cosmic forces of karma, I figure they love it when that happens.

As I believe this is an Airplane! reference, and Trek indeed only has Sonic showers, I must conclude that Beverly has a drinking problem.

However, Microsoft seems to be abandoning local tools & recommending Azure-based management instead, like Intune.

Yeah. The stuff they can charge an annual subscription to. Lol

I’m not really mad, though. Azure and InTune seem to be genuinely also much better.

so that it looks like you messed up the tiling somehow

I wish more tiling developers understood this. Gaps between windows looks broken. I don’t mind it being an option, but to me it’s such a weird choice for the default.

Yeah. If the whole heating the planet to exterminate all humans gets revealed to be an alien attack on us, I’ll be angry.

But if the aliens simply share a screenshot of Hotdog desktop theme, in explanation of their actions… I’ll probably just nod.

There’s an extension that lets me close and open windows with the Matrix Code Rain so I can pretend I’m cool n shit.

Awesome. Looking into that just got added to my weekend plans. Thanks!
