  • If it makes you feel any better, Trump was quoting Napoleon.

  • Sometimes I smile...
  • The gradually accumulating brain damage also would have killed him in a rather horrifying manner.

  • ‘He’s underwater on everything:’ Fox News host breaks down Trump approval polling
  • They're probably trying to take control of the party back from Trump. They did push back against him during his first term, but fell flat on their faces and started losing viewers to Newsmax. Now they're trying to back it with data. They've spent the last few decades training their viewers to ignore data, though, so we'll see how that goes.

  • What parody surpassed what it was trying to parody?
  • By Grabthar's hammer, what a movie.

  • I can't handle the texture.

  • Star Trek is canonically socialist according to Strange New Worlds
  • Stamets grew on me over time. I don't know why. Possibly because he was often the only competent character on the ship. As neurotic as he can be, he's still less neurotic than season 1 Saru and has better decision making ability than Burnham.

  • Certain hobbies set off warning bells
  • Also colonization of North America with Vinland, integration into the Roman/Byzantine Empire, and possible contact with China. For as relatively small as their population was, they sure explored a lot and went interesting places. Possibly because their home was unpleasantly cold.

  • Certain hobbies set off warning bells
  • The seemingly nonsensical information in the pokedex, like a pokemon that's hotter than the sun or size to weight ratios calculating out to absurdly high or low densities, actually makes more sense when you realize it's all written by unsupervised ten year old kids who are pulling numbers out of their asses.

  • The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remake Will Reportedly Be Revealed Soon, and Released Not Long After That
  • Bethesda has actually been consistently supportive of Skyblivion, Morroblivion, and Skywind.

  • Star Trek is canonically socialist according to Strange New Worlds
  • I just double checked. She technically disappears between the episodes An Obol for Charon and Saints of Imperfection, but the scene from Obol she's in is directly continued in Saints with no time skip at all. Basically, if you take the scenes in engineering from those two episodes and watch them in real-time, Reno would simply vanish when cutting from one camera angle to another.

  • Star Trek is canonically socialist according to Strange New Worlds
  • She actually vanishes mid-scene at one point.

  • Star Trek is canonically socialist according to Strange New Worlds
  • Saru, Stamets, and Reno were the only parts I liked.

  • TIL Mirror's Edge (2008) was written by Rhianna Pratchett, daughter of Sir Terry Pratchett
  • And why Rise was so incredibly by-the-numbers after 2013 shook things up.

  • WoW guild uses exploits to get world 'first' on new raid, gets banned, puts its name backwards and does it again
  • I genuinely didn't know it was still big. Everyone I know who played it quit ten years ago and expansion launches no longer hit my feeds.

  • TIL Mirror's Edge (2008) was written by Rhianna Pratchett, daughter of Sir Terry Pratchett
  • Specifically, she wrote the 2013 game and Rise of the Tomb Raider. Studio and publisher interference on Rise was so pervasive that she permanently quit writing for AAA games and someone else took over for Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

  • Mozilla to DOJ: Please keep allowing Google Monopoly default engine payments, so they can keep paying us.
  • Isn't Vivaldi Chromium? Would make it likely do be hit by the main branch dropping Manifest v2 support.

  • They're sneakier than they appear
  • The line of stewards were kings in all but name as a hereditary monarchical position with all the duties and authority of the king. They theoretically had to give up power if a member of the royal family ever came back to claim the throne, but Aragorn wasn't exactly chomping at the bit to do so and only took over after Denethor killed himself with his two heirs being either dead or too injured to lead. The stewards had ruled Gondor for over a thousand years and a well liked one could have easily gotten the people behind them to reject Aragorn's claim and formally taken the title of king.

  • "I hooked up a second monitor and neither are working!"
  • Never been a sysadmin, but used to sell electronics. People really have absolutely no idea how any of it works, including pretty straight forward stuff, like displays. Had to explain to a shockingly large number of people that there was no such thing as an ethernet to HDMI adapter and that even if there was, plugging ethernet into their non-smart TV's HDMI port wouldn't let them watch Netflix on it.

  • Dalai Lama says successor will be born in ‘free world’ outside of China
  • Don't know about that specific picture, but the premise of the KOTH revival airing later this year involves an adult Bobby working as a chef at a restaurant.

  • How can a military buy fighter jets that the seller has kill switches for?
  • The kill switches are fine so long as the seller remains stable and predictable.

  • Akira Inspired Poster, Revised Again

    After having printed the previous version of my poster and discovering that the overall darkness made it difficult to see when framed (light reflects off the glass or plastic and the glare kills it) I have done a bunch of post processing in the hopes that it will turn out better.
