I used to watch that all the time when it was randomly on - never in the same timeslot, and I think the local network just used it as filler - but I always forget that it existed until someone randomly mentions it.

“Look what I can do!”

“He look’a like a man”

Coffee Monster

We had that show. It was called “Star Trek: Voyager” but she went by “Janeway”.

AI mixed with news sourced from X. What could possibly go wrong?

Yeah, hard pass from me.

Sexy people running at the beach lol.

Wondering how well this will do in the age where internet porn exists.

Wasn’t like 90% of the draw of the original “Baywatch” that it was softcore porn that ran during primetime? I remember watching it way back in the day, but I could not tell you the plot of even a single episode.

I like the concept because it’s reminiscent of the early computers I grew up with (Tandy CoCo, Commodore 64) and I basically just dock my laptop with its lid closed anyway (screen is too small and resolution too high for my old person eyes).

But considering it’s literally a keyboard PC, you’d think they’d have put more effort into making it a nice keyboard. I hate those “chiclet” low travel keys. Put a PC in a good mechanical keyboard or at least a membrane keyboard where the keys have some travel, then we’ll talk. Until then, it’d be a tad ridiculous to plug a good keyboard into my keyboard PC lol.

It’s not much cheaper than an equivalent laptop, so who’s this for, exactly?

I guess if there were an LCD shortage instead of memory and SSD, it would have a lot more potential.

If I was going to fall off the wagon after 2 years, I hope to gods it would be with something better than Bud Light.

I’m aware of it as the official sequel but haven’t seen it. Assuming there’s a good reason it only lasted one season.

I’ve heard of it but will have to add it to my watch list.

[Tina] Fey / [Robert] Carlock

They’re the team behind “30 Rock”, “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” and several others.

Also Jack Burditt who produced both of those and many other shows I’ve enjoyed such as “Just Shoot Me” and “Frasier”.

That gets PBS more exposure, sure, and that’s great because they put out quality content, but do they get paid for that? I’m genuinely curious here as I know little of how YT pays content creators. I’ve had a recurring monthly donation going for years now, and I just don’t yet understand if/how simply subscribing could replace even a portion of that.

How does that work? Does YT pay out to creators based on the subscriber count alone? I’ve only ever heard “like and subscribe to help fund this channel” mentioned when the videos are monetized (e.g ads or sponsors).

Or does PBS monetize their videos and uBlock just shields me from that?

Not that I don’t want this to be true since it’s an easy way to help fund them, but I am curious how (or if) this works.

I’m about to have my house powered by fusion energy.

Mine’s only for people I know personally, so it’s backed by my LDAP server and registration is disabled in Synapse. I use my regular onboarding process to create the new LDAP user and grant access to Synapse.

In theory you might be able to pass yourself off as some kind of supernatural figure, but not without knowing anything about their belief system first.

Nice. I’ve pretty much just used LibreTranslate for that, but will check that out and see if it works any better.

I just want more games to let you quit to desktop from the game without having to first “Quit to main menu -> Are you sure? (yes!) -> Loading screen + main menu animation -> Quit to Desktop -> Are you sure? (Yes, i’m goddamned sure!)”

so it’s 30% not 20%

Fair. I was going by population numbers vs votes cast and didn’t have the voter turnout numbers handy when I originally wrote that out and was paraphrasing from that to save time.

But that’s still far from half, and I’m tired of people using the misconception/phrase to justify their xenophobic rhetoric.

“Half of Americans voted for this”

No, half the people who actually showed up to vote voted for the guy, but not necessarily all he is and has been doing. It’s actually only about 20-22% or less of the population that actually voted this guy into office and fewer than that are on board with current events. Far from “half of Americans”, so just stop it.
