  If you go, definitely stay at Four Seasons Total Landscaping next door, best accommodations around and their convention spaces are great for any press conferences you might need to hastily put together.

  I used to think they were bots. I still do, but I used to, too.

  I like the game, but agree with the over-tutorialed complaints. They have two difficulty modes, I wish only story mode got all the handholding. I think there’s enough obvious indicators to get you through all the game mechanics.

  Donnie Darko - Just such a great, strange movie

  The realism is amazing

  You’ve never seen a scaly manfish show somebody their downstairs mixup? Have you never been fishing?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star dates – is one day equal to 0,07 SD in TNG?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, some shows did have their own consistent-ish systems, but I think some shows used a system that seemed to be relative to the center of the solar system, others from the perspective of the ship (which makes more sense to me, like naval bearings) - memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Heading.

  It was a quick lookup from a long time ago, I was working on a 3d space game and was curious if ST had a consistent model I could just use.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star dates – is one day equal to 0,07 SD in TNG?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The headings / bearings they use are all over the place too, remember looking it up and it feels like the writers just picked whatever numbers best fit the flow / cadence of dialog they were looking for

  Went to one of the sanctuaries around Hobart, their odor is pretty rough. I saw it described as smelling like a smelly wet dog, and it’s definitely like that, but combined with like a “skunk, but one that evolved on the other side of the planet” smell.

  Yeah, meant the website title, but in truth it’s tough to tell what’s astroturfing bots vs people here. And honestly these things with 6 2.5GbE ports is plenty impressive, not sure why the website felt the need to goose it like they did.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mini PC with Intel N100 and 6 x 2 5 GbE LAN ports⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  2.5 GbE NOT 25. That’s the funkiest clickbait bullshit I’ve seen in a while.

  If that’s true, that dude had the worst case of the munchies ever

  TIL - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath_salts_(drug).

  I just assumed there was some dose of bath salts you could take that would get you high (and hungry for faces) but not kill you, like don’t people use tractor starter fluid to roofie people…

  But happy I now know

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Delicious.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t see bath salts now without immediately thinking about the Florida man eats faces while high on bath salts story. Now I’m imagining tiny children eating faces while high on bath salts. Thanks a lot, internet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does a cloned drive have the same drive letter as the original?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It depends how they clone it. I’m assuming now your 250gb drive is c, 1tb drive is d. After the cloning if you want the 1tb to be c and 2TB to be d, just tell them what you want and they should be able to make that happen.

  For a bit more technical info, you also have a small EFI partition (unless this pc is very old), probably on your 250gb drive. This partition is what your computer boots from initially. When windows is installed it writes information to that partition, both initial boot binaries but also information about where your windows partition is. When they clone the 250gb drive they’ll also clone that partition, and depending on the method they use to clone, that pointer from efi will either not need to be modified, or they’ll fix it with tools called bcdboot and bcdedit. Bcedit has some read-only commands but I wouldn’t suggest messing with either, just mentioning them if you’re curious to read about them and understand the process a bit more
