Waterworld is amazing. I ordered the Arrow blu-ray release the day it came out. Having an HD, official release of the Ulysses Cut is pretty cool.

I really liked Pandorum. It was weird.

Another trip to the meme cellar.

Here are a few from my meme cellar. They are of a fine vintage. I have plenty more.

Oh, that sucks. I have not run into any instruction set issues with my Precision, but all I really do with it is stream video and game up to Fallout 4 era. I actually wondered if I would run into problems since the Xeon 5355 is from freaking 2006, but all seems well so far.

OpenRCT2 runs great on here! The crappy Intel graphics can even handle the OpenGL setting. Ok, this thing is officially revived now. Internet, a couple of games, and an office suite? What more could I ask for. This is going to be my coffee shop device again.

I seriously loved this thing when I was using it. It was my only laptop for years. I have desktops wherever I need a computer in the house, this was just a little thing take around. Then, the Windows updates really started slowing it down… Windows was bloating to take up most of the 32GB of internal storage. I tried replacing it with a 11" Android tablet, but Android is not a PC. Even with a keyboard and mouse, and the Taskbar launcher, it felt like it was just LARPing as a laptop.

Well, I couldn’t wait. I tried a lot of distros. Some lightweight, some not. Including Fedora LXDE, which ran great but was not very pretty. I ended up settling on Lubuntu LTS. It was a very nice balance between performance and looks. Only uses about 500 MB of my precious 2 GB of ram. Even with Firefox open, it only hits 1 GB. LXQt seems pretty nice so far! This is so much faster than Win10 on here. Man, this thing is so weak. Ok, I’m tired. Here’s some pics. I am posting from the Flexx now.

Added 35% transparency to the terminal to match the sombre-et-rond theme for LXQt

Also, don’t need Minecraft. Luanti works just fine!

Ring-a-ding-ding, baby.

Where have I seen this before? Was it Star Trek TNG? Fringe? X-Files? Man, this is really familiar. I seem to remember it not turning out well for the courier.

If we could keep falling back every year, but skipping the spring ahead, that would be great.

Eventually, my sleep schedule would be considered normal.

Well, I’m glad I looked at this again! It seems there has been progress! I know what I’m doing this weekend.

I would love to on my cheap-ass Nextbook Flexx 10. But the last time I heard anybody tried Linux on it, there was almost no driver support for it. I love how small it is, I don’t care if all i can do on it is browse the web slowly and maybe run LibreOffice.

This chonky boy is 19 this year. He has dual Xeon quad cores, and 32gb of DDR2 and a 980Ti. He streams 4K videos with ease and plays most of my Steam library. He’s running Mint. And he eats about 425W while he does it.

Probably between 200-300mg. I would never do caffeine pills, as I enjoy my methods of caffeine consumption.

Typically, I’ll either drink a 2-cup moka pot, or some espresso. I never drink drip or French press coffee. Too bland. Turkish coffee is also good, but I don’t get that too often.

If not coffee, it’s usually Monster rehabs or Celsius. Tea is more for enjoyment than the caffeine content.

I have had Crohn’s for 22 years. I am now on medication that has it controlled, it’s wild. But I feel like I don’t have the bowel strength for formed poops anymore! It’s pretty exhausting going once a day. It’s a whole event. Like a sloth.

I’d take one of those. My P4 is only 3.0 GHz.

When the games stopped shipping completely on their physical media is when they lost me. So, I guess PS3. To me, a console should be a completely self-contained experience. You want a game? You buy it. It comes on a disc, or cartridge, or HuCard. Doesn’t need to download updates. Doesn’t require the internet. Just pop it in, and boot directly to a game. Immune to digital stores closing, or servers shutting down.

If I have to download 50gb when I bought a game on discord, what are the discs even for? And I would still have to worry about disk space? Man, I’d rather just have a PC.

We have always been at war with Eastasia.

Ys 1 & 2. I love the Ys games. But I really only play VI through X. There are remakes of some of the other older ones for the PSP and Vita, I have played through those, too. They are very well done, IMO. But I cannot get into the first two. The mechanics are just too weird. I have the remastered for the DS, I am going to give it a try again, but I’m pretty sure it is largely just visual changes and I am still going to hate it.

I got a question about you morticians. You bang the dead bodies? I imagine stuff like that goes on all the time. I mean I don’t give a shit. If I was dead you could bang me all you want. I mean who cares? A dead body is like a piece of trash. I mean shove as much shit in there as you want. Fill me up with cream,make a stew out of my ass. What’s the big deal? Bang me, eat me, grind me up into little pieces, throw me in the river. Who gives a shit? You’re dead, you’re dead! Oh Shit! Is my mic on?
