Oliva Coleman has been in tons of stuff, but relatively recently she played Queen Elizabeth in The Crown. And won an oscar or two. She’s…pretty fucking famous.

Ayo Edebiri is in The Bear and has won some Emmys.

So fair. They aren’t literally rhe biggest names. But they’re doing something. And that’s admirable.

I suppose that isn’t far off from what you said, though…

I kinda like using Doctorow for this:

• Similar facial expression
• Works with the EFF
• Cool shades

It’s wilder when it works in the installer, but not on first boot.

I think a reasonable quorum already said this, but NFS is still good. My only complaint is it isn’t quite as user-mountable as some other systems.

So…I know you said no SAMBA, but SAMBA 4 really isn’t bad any more. At least, not nearly as shit as it was.

If you want a easily mountable filesystem for users (e.g. network discovery/etc.) it’s pretty tolerable.

• Zephirelli’s Romeo and Juliet (mentioned many times in thread, this is the very porn-y version from the 60s that really shouldn’t be)
• Amadeus
• a teacher in high school lent me a copy of Last of the Dogmen, which, in retrospect, he should not have done

I’m sure there were more, but I can’t remember any others.

I remember having to compensate for the Pentium float bug in the Turbo Pascal programs I was writing back then. I really didn’t understand what I was doing at the time, and the 90s version of StackOverflow (A Tripod blog?) wasn’t that enlightening…

Okay. I’ve seen links to this a few times now…

Didn’t we buy Alaska from Russia? (Yes we did)

This is either the weirdest case of buyer’s remorse, or yet another ginned up controversy.

Wait! Are you telling me The Simpsons is satire?

I’m not sure how closely it hews to your definition, but I really love vim.

Not neovim. vim.

And get those plugins out of my face. I just want a TUI text editor that works the same everywhere.

And these emoji can’t frgth back?!

Good point, but it’s “Custer”, not " Custard".

Although I kinda like the idea of a trembling, gelatious shape being the asshole that led the charge at Little Bighorn…

Also on Fedora.

Discover no longer shows a progress bar in the lower right for updates from rpms. Flatpaks do work, though.

Opening Spectacle immediately opens the area select screen, but causes any open menus to close, negating the usefulness of screenshots somewhat…

(Also, a recent update made my boot take way longer. Like…3 seconds to 1-2 minutes. It’s weird, and seems to be some kind of hardware issue…)

I’ve never been approached by the lizard people (that I’m aware of).

But the Lectroids? Also never spoken to them.

It’s actually red Lectroids from the 8th dimension.

But I understand how you’d get confused.

It’s CRYS-TAL!

Boycott, Divest, Something…

At least, given the context, it’s somehow related to supporting Palestine.

Overloading names is frustrating…

I’m sure there are more…

I only know gnomes from this documentary from the 80s. Perhaps it was propaganda from Big Gnome, but they seemed nice…

It supports Rosetta2, so yes.

Bret Stephens is a bed bug.
