That's actually a pretty fair point.

All of this is imo, but. My biggest issue with BB is that most of the characters lack any meaningful depth; they feel like caricatures rather than real people. The writers didn't have a long term plan for BB, and I feel like it shows in a lot of the storylines. I don't think Walt's character was consistent at all, which bugs me because he's the focal point of the story.

All of these things I think BCS addressed and improved on. And again, I don't even really dislike BB, I just think it feels like an off-brand sopranos. BCS, on the other hand, is the genuine article. I honestly think it's one of the best shows that's ever aired on regular cable. But I'm just some random dickhead on the internet, so who cares what I think lol.

I loved parks and rec, and I think that's a super fair way to feel about it. It has a very cheesy veneer hiding some really great comedy. I think 30 Rock had the same problem, and I get why a lot of people weren't into it. Or maybe the comedy just doesn't resonate with a some people, idk. I liked it, but I can see why other people wouldn't, even if I can't verbalize that.

Me with Breaking Bad. Just to get ahead of the insufferable BB fans, it's not a bad show, it's just no Wire or Sopranos. Better Call Saul, though? Oh baby, now we're talking.

Currently using Tortoise and SVN for the first time at my job, and I hate it.

The movie is very loosely based on the first book. The screenwriter read it, had a dream about it, then wrote the movie based off the dream they had, intentionally never referencing the book while writing it. Which... Idk. Kinda fits the vibe of the story, but I'd love an authentic adaptation of the book, because it's incredible.

The second book was a hard read for me, but it's worth it to get to third, and honestly the third kind of retroactively makes the second one better. There's supposed to be a 4th in the works I believe, but don't quote me on that.

Reminds me of the biologist from Annihilation. Time to reread the trilogy I guess.

I've been listening to a lot of Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats, and Graveyard, just kinda picking through licks here and there that I like. In particular I just sat and learned Surf's Up, and want to try my hand at Hymn for a Droid next.

Yeah, I kind of agree here. I'd love to switch to Linux as my every day driver, but some things keep me tied to windows. Gaming is getting better on Linux by the day, but I still can't use Ableton on Linux, and that's basically a deal breaker for me. I think the newest Push has Linux support though, so who knows? Maybe one day.

As a GA resident right across the river from SC, I understand that sentiment. SC sucks. Those bastards stole our city name and our fuckin baseball team.

It's also one of the best ways to advertise as a small content creator. The internet hates self-promotion with a passion, but short form videos? People love that shit.

Fuck off, yankee. Like the rest of the country doesn't have backwoods towns with morons in it too, oh no, that's purely a southern problem. And racism? No, no, places like Ohio and Illinois and fuckin Glendale, California don't have racist idiots, certainly.

Any problem you can find with the south can be found anywhere else in the country, y'all just like to put blinders on.

The gun is good! The penis is evil!

4 × 4 = 16, I don't understand where the confusion is coming from, bud lol

Man, this is Lemmy in a nutshell. Someone offers a well thought-out and well-written view to give some perspective on the other side of a popular Lemmy opinion, and the first response is just straight up ignoring the opportunity to have a real conversation and attacking the commenter as a person.

This place fucking sucks.

Yes, that's typically how militaries are used, you fucking goober

There's no shortage of great boomer shooters these days, and I think they check the "brain off, cozy shooter" criteria.

The indie boomer shooter scene is exploding, actually

Not to be pedantic, but Ahab actually had an ivory leg, not wood.
