  • Star Trek has more to offer or it has to end and stop producing more content?

    Jump

  • i dont think the franchise will run out of new stories. its about infanite possibilities and hope, there will always be room for more of that. i do think a lot of trek fans miss that not all trek shows are aimed at all of trek fans. tng and ds9 had wildy different vibes. theres peace between those fandoms now, mostely, but people thought ds9 ruined trek. people though voyager and discovery ruined it. personally i think one of the coolest things about trek is that it will run different shows with their own tone. discovery made a lot of people feel connected to trek in a way older trek never could. new worlds i still havent started because episodic isnt my favorite. and picard was hard for me to finish because the fan service was from tng which is my least favorite trek.

    give me ds9, voyager and discover on repeat. someone else in here is gonna be a dire hard enterprise fan. its a universe built on exploring differences, makes sence it'll do that in different ways for different audiances too right? if you're not feeling the current in production trek its a great chance to binge some old trek.

  • How to downgrade from macOS 26 Tahoe on a new Mac

    Jump

  • oh yeah ipados is limited. the windowed gui option in 26 makes it more usable for keyboard/mouse if you've got a large screen model. but it still seems geared to sidecar usage not a standalone tablet computer. which makes the removal of sidecar a hilariously apple thing to do. honestly gnome on an old surface is a very solid competitor to ipados if you don't need to do any creative work. and the issues i had when testing gnome and krita could have just been the cheaper 2nd hand hardware i used.

  • How to downgrade from macOS 26 Tahoe on a new Mac

  • a touch screen macbook is already a thing, it's just an ipad pro with a 'magic' keyboard. I used that set up as a daily driver at work for a couple years before getting to work remote. unless the failure to innovate continues on and they just make the macbook screen detachable like a surface book clone. before apple laid off all it's vendor relations staff a few years ago they were constantly talking about the push to unify macOS and iOS UI. I suppose the default experience between macOS and iPadOS is pretty close now.

  • I have a confession

    Jump

  • i play about the same way. want to build things and become way too attached to the little blob shaped people. if that wasnt a way we're 'allowed' to play the game it wouldn't have been included as a way to play the game.

  • tahoe is definitely the worst i've seen things since leopard. maybe we get lucky and apple does another "ok sure, maybe that one was an oops" and anounces another snow leopard style rewite of everything. pause a year to clean up the flashy bloat that only kinda half works. not like they've been innovating, they could at least stop slipping and making lazy mistakes regularly.

  • meshtastic 101 session by mspmesh

    Jump

  • it's a recording of a live talk they did durring a monthly meetup. first one in this format and first recorded. so best guess is no one thought to have a mic for the q&a. theres also a priority to respect anonymity in mspmesh so i suppose rhe editor could have cut the questioners voice out for that.

    i agree the q&a transitions were awkward though. it sounds like the group wants to do more sessions like this to dive deeper. i'll pass the q&a feedback to them.

  • Virgin Framework vs Chad ThinkPad

    Jump

  • they are a great example of over engineering just to over engineer. lots of neat ideas that dont serve a purpose in the end. the only personal complaint i have is i dont like the trackpad. they tried to look like an apple trackpad but the button resistance wasnt considered. so its uncomforable to me with extended use. ive also had to replace two dead trackpads.

    battery life is average. screen is flimsy but looks nice. lots of things are ok, not bad, just ok. without the hype of being repairable its just another macbook air clone you'd only buy after it goes on sale. if they'd allowed the design to be a little bulkier and used stronger parts instead of gimmicks, it could have been something worth its price.

    i do like the aspect ratio and keyboard. the magnetic bezel is a great fidget. getting it without ram and ssd was nice. didnt have to toss the preinstalled ones when i put in 32gb and a 4tb ssd. but its not a 'great' laptop its just a laptop.

  • Virgin Framework vs Chad ThinkPad

    Jump

  • their lack of response to all this was emphasised by leaving all the racist and terfy comments up on the community forums for days. it was like browsing twitter.

  • Virgin Framework vs Chad ThinkPad

    Jump

  • they're fine. im not throwing out my first get 13" but im also not upgrading it. i'll use it till it dies and replace it like any other laptop*. it turned out to be a perfectly fine device. i knew going in i was spending extra for the chance it'd be my "last laptop" that'd be periodically upgraded. it's definitely fallen short in daily use. decent enough computer that i dont regret having tried it. but i'd stopped suggesting framework to people long before we found out they're a bunch of assholes.

  • Does self hosting your own internet count?

    Jump

  • meshcore is licensed the way you do it if you plan to go freemium down the road. its fine to use if your area has already gone that way. but meshtastic fits better in a foss standard and does the same thing.

    either way you go its best to see these as fancy pagers not diy instant messagers. they have some great potential in a world where govs or nature can knock down cell service, if you're purposeful and realistic about it. but they are not as easy to build as youtube would tell you. and they're not gonna replace your phone full time.

  • yeah we don't need leaks to know this. they raided the dorothy day homless shelter in st paul today while the new "reasonable adult" tom was meeting with walz. same guy just a different mask.

  • ICE Agents Want Out of Minnesota: Trump’s ‘Battle Is Lost’

    Jump

  • what they should be afraid of is people wondering how many other bodies ice has left along the border. if that agent was confident enough to shoot a restrained man in the back while being filmed by multiple people. thats not his first.

  • this right here. every news source is refering to that crowd as "thousands". most protests dont even get a mention in local papers.

  • Ice Out Protest Minneapolis, MN today

    Jump

  • thats what they picked minneapolis for. expected some nice viral moments of vilent protests like we've had and a big show of force putting us down. an all they're gonna get is footage of the ice director parancing around town at gas stations. if they send in the military, and yes i have zero doubt they want too. they have to know for a fact they have one willing too start shooting its own citizens. because they'll have too. and trump backs his ass down off threats of that faster than he folds on attacks abroad. im not saying this isnt an active terror campaign. it absolutely is. armed men in masks have been stalking the grocery store i shop at the past three days. i know they want violance in return for that. im just also saying they are beatable with wistles and cameras.

  • Ice Out Protest Minneapolis, MN today

    Jump

  • im sure most of whats happening here isnt getting past the geofencing and content mods in regular social media. but they have not had enough resources to control even individual neighborhoods. even after bringing in more agents than the entire combined police force of the most populated metro area in the state. every increase in violance by ice drives more volunteers into community patrols. the administration cant subdue one medium sized midwestern city. they're weak and its showing.
