I haven’t encountered Brendan yet, but I look forward to yet another reality-bleed.

I just got into Cyberpunk 2077, and too many parts of it are leaking into the real world. This could be a Delamain interaction.

I haven’t tried Bazzite yet, but I feel the same about the other ublue flavours.

I’m the most productive I’ve ever been. Tweaking everything was fun for a few years, but now I just need a distro I can trust, that comes with the tools to do anything.

I see rebases to Bazzite DX are available now. I might give that a go today.

I will never understand why people with power are this petty.

They probably think it’s a huge flex, but it makes them look like the most pants-shittingly immature little cry babies.

Real power is not devoting brain cycles to things that should be beneath you.

Yeah, but he’ll need to borrow a vehicle to get to work now.

See “space invasion” on the roadmap

I missed that whole meme, but back then my fiancée was working at a firm that was representing someone trying to assert IP rights on the dance. It didn’t make much sense to me why an Australian firm would be involved.

Reading up the history now to see how it started, I’m just more confused. I guess the Aussie channel that kicked off the meme wanted credit for making it big, even though they copied Filthy Frank?

It didn’t even occur to me that Deadloch is mostly about women, even though that shouldn’t be surprising, given who made it.

I had a similar revelation after I played through Forspoken. I assumed it would be a target for the anti-woke brigade since the protagonist is a black woman, but it was only after finishing it clicked that every character of consequence is a woman (with one exception I won’t mention for spoiler reasons).

If the story keeps you invested, genders are pretty irrelevant. I think genre expectations can shift if we don’t draw attention to them.

Or Bluefin, depending on desktop preference. I’ve been using both and can recommend either.

It’s more common than I was aware for software mascots to have distinct names from their respective products.

I kind of like “Ian”. Seems suitably humble for a diminutive little rodent.

Another option might be from the band’s own mascot, Snaggletooth.

Yes but the word for books comes from bisexuality, because reading is gay.

Similar to that. Nouns that have a somewhat specific meaning in our business context, like Investor, Adviser, Product, Portfolio, etc.

This is the accepted writing style at my work, and it’s been driving me nuts for years. I’m talking about the copy we put on all our public facing materials. Even our resident linguists hate it, but apparently someone high up thinks it’s industry standard.

Remembering this just made me happier to be leaving soon. They’re so resistant to challenging entrenched habits. I should have seen these signs when I started.

The trick is for those other AIs to reserve a few bucks, so they can repeat the process but this time cash out early. Keep repeating until everybody wins.

Just ask the AI how to turn $1 into $100M with high frequency trading!

I’ll say the obvious because of where we are. Lemmy Kilmister.

Peep Show is my human litmus test. Seeing how people react to that show can tell you a lot about them.

This isn’t the little death I asked for.

I’m not a big beer drinker, but there are few things as disappointing as finding a bar that serves stout on tap, then discovering it’s been all hopped up.

Unit test dummy data is full of it. Need an arbitrary date? Pick a special birthday. Location? Wherever you first met.

Not the most public dedication, but perhaps more impactful than yet another song about the one that got away.
