I enjoyed The Long Walk for the same reason. Very faithful adaptation of my favourite Bachman book, although I am hoping for a director’s cut. I didn’t see any trailers before watching so I was very surprised and pleased to see who the actor for The Major was. The interactions between all the kids is just great.
So you enjoyed the remake of The Running Man over the Schwarzenegger version? Or was it just a different beast?
I’ll add to your dose fediverse fun instead of reddit comment regret.
Of all the people in the world, he’s probably the easiest one to make an AI avatar from. People already think he’s a robot.
He could be having a midlife crisis. Maybe he wants an AI avatar to succeed him after he dies.
I hate how Ross’ wife turning out to be a lesbian was somehow a failure on his part. But that said it was pretty important for representation at the time. Lots of people wouldn’t watch the show at first because it had gay people.
I learned Ian’s Secure Knot because sometimes you get shoe laces that are slippery and never stay tied. The secure knot is way better than doing a double knot as you can easily untie it.
I also visit the site right after buying new shoes or boots and look up lacing patterns and pick something fun. I’m currently using Spider Web lacing.
Just played the NES Contra yesterday for the first time in probably over a decade. Still can beat it first try although I did have to use a couple of continuous on stage 4. I’m so used to not dying that I forgot where to find the good weapons. But for stages 5-8 I still had all the muscle memory of where to shoot and when that I developed as a kid.
I’m on 145 still. Maybe they are doing an A/B rollout for the UI. I’m not a big fan of all changes, but overall the aesthetic is nice.
Oh that’s interesting. About a week or maybe 2 ago I got a pretty big Firefox mobile update. The entire UI was overhauled. Have you experienced that yet?
I’m very interested in this and will try it out. There was another connection manager that the author posts on Lemmy, but the memory usage was very high due to the amount of docker containers used. A quick glance showed no requirement for docker. The ssh port forwarding could be a very useful feature for my work right now.
Settings -> Customize -> App Icon was the first option on Android.
The exercise bit is so important. I’m mid 40s recently started working out with weights again after about 6 years of being somewhat sedentary other than running/walking dogs. Almost instantly I had worked out some pain my shoulder had been giving me that had been preventing me from sleeping well, and I don’t grunt when getting up from a crouched position anymore. Also just feeling better and more capable all around.
All I got right now is this box of one dozen starving crazed weasels.
When I was a kid, there was a game like missile command where letters would drop from space and typing the letter would launch a missile which would destroy the letter. I can only find full word versions of that game now online. Was really hoping to find a single letter version for learning where the keys are.
I was in the sane situation as you and what I did was buy a new drive to put Linux on so I could dual boot and get used to things without wiping everything. Linux can even mount your Window drive if you need to access data on it.
I tried a few distro myself but landed on Garuda Dr460onized Gaming. (You can look at different versions here) The gaming version came with steam and Heroic installed and had a nice colour theme picked. Gaming has been great and all Windows games that I’ve tried have worked better than when I was running Windows. (Rocket League, Hades 2, Uncharted 4 to name some) You can always keep Windows on your other drive and boot it for games like Fortnite that have kernel level anti cheat.
The only issue you might have is that Garuda is pretty bleeding edge with when updates get applied. This can be good or bad. There were some issues getting dual screens working for me at first, but those issues have gone away completely now. I also had issues with the top menu bar crashing and disappearing. Lasted about 2 weeks and then an update fixed it. (Survived by using the Meta + Spacebar search launcher and Ctrl + Alt + T to get into a terminal) So updates to fix issues come out somewhat quickly, but issues pop up too. I actually think it’s been pretty stable right now.
But isn’t Bazzite an immutable distro? I heard that has some advantages and some disadvantages especially when installing software. I skipped on it when I heard that for my desktop OS, but I haven’t actually tried it.
I think you could add: “Enjoy a very colourful desktop interface?” and go from Garuda to Garuda Dr460onized.
It really doesn’t need to be a picture.

I’m guessing this is the amount of money the streaming services have payed to the shows to have them. As to the pay structure, that would be interesting to know.
