Clerks

It is a dog whistle for racism. The facts do not matter and the issues don’t matter. It is just another opportunity put out their message of hate and intolerance.

My obsession with the Fediverse and Linux.

Librewolf is great. Secure and private by default. For compatibility it is nearly as good as Firefox.

A lot of good stuff here. The three things that are most notable for me are:

Notepadqq

Fsearch

We need a fediverse streaming service.

I block logs.roku.com and cloudservices.roku.com on my pihole without impacting any functionality.

I particularly like the original phaser from the pilot episode The Cage but my favorite is the phaser rifle from Where No Man Has Gone Before.

It is hard to separate nostalgia from any rational opinions I have about this movie, since it came out when I was a randy and uninformed 15 years old. That said it had really interesting characters, a plot which I could follow and I especially liked the village of kids from the crashed plane. It had a Lord of the Flies vibe, but with a counter-narrative to the doom and gloom theme that humans will revert to barbarism, but also not an idealized, utopian vision of what would happen. Even Bartertown had an element of social commentary. It seemed to be offering different versions of how people would organize themselves if we wiped away current civilization and social structures. Which one is better? It does not directly make a judgement, but in some sense Max is fighting for what feel “right” to him in order to redeem himself for not being able to save his family and all the terrible things he has done in the wake of the disaster to survive. Honestly Thunderdome is one of my favorite movies.

/action Takes shovel and starts digging what appears to be his own grave.

I think Fury Road has amazing visuals, cinematography, practical effects, stunts and all that. But I really did not find the story of the characters interesting.Honestly it felt more like Fast and Furious than Mad Max.

My favorite Mad Max film is Thunderdome.

I prefer wired - one less thing to charge.

This is basically the premise of the show The Boys.

Wait til the meth gators start coming ashire…

Love Librewolf, its default privacy settings are the best I have seen.

It has all the goodness of Ubuntu without the noise. A common sense UI with solid default options and great customizability.

I have tried a lot of different distros and Mint is the one I keep coming back to. I run it on my daily driver laptop, my gaming rig and my media center in the living room with MythTV. Could not be happier.
