@gormster @cabel That was a really fun watch! As an 80s kid with an interest in film, I've of course seen the HBO intro sequence dozens of times and always wondered how they made it. I didn't know you could even get a metal model to look that uncannily smooth.

Haha. Chuck Norris is trending again. People always freak out when that happens. Let's see what silly article is making the rounds this time...
Oh. Oh shit...
Maybe it really *is* the end times.

@sterophonick I only visited once nearly 15 years ago. I grew up outside of Orlando, so I've seen industrial-scale tourism up close as a local. Vegas left me feeling like a piece of livestock standing in line for the slaughter. I suspect I'd have enjoyed it if I wasn't so sensitized to being fodder in the tourism machine, though.

@sterophonick I mean, you're not wrong. The mob's Vegas was a more accessible Vegas. They're trying to become a new Dubai now.

@benroyce @sarble I meant it more in the "Oh...so *this* is what I look like right now. Yikes." sort of way. 😅

@benroyce @sarble I think the first time I saw it was while I was in the obsession phase of a bad breakup and watching John Favreau cringe his way through half the film was a pretty good medicine for me at the time.

@benroyce @sarble Fun trivia...it's the only scene in the movie to not use the phrase "You are so money".

@2something USB debugging enumerates the ADB interface. No clue how that plays with the others stuff.
I can't speak to what Plasma and/or dolphin are doing because I use neither. I can say this works for me regularly on my Regolith and Cosmic desktops though.
I know sometimes on Linux you have to add some udev rules. I do it shortly after system setup so I always forget about the specifics.

@2something go to settings and check your USB preferences. There are a lot of things it'll enumerate as.

@dan For real. One of our cars is a 2015 Nissan Leaf. It's still just fine for our purposes. I recently pulled the diagnostics and the battery health was like...75%? We bought one just like it for my sister in law who goes to the grocery store and an occasional nearby restaurant. She charges off a standard 120V outlet because she drives so little.

@matdevdug this is really how I feel right now. Work is pushing the tools on me, so I use them with a begrudging curiosity. Except now I can leave Claude churning on an idea that I wanted to try but didn't have the time to explore. 15 minutes later it reports doubt that the hardware supports my idea, and I have enough basic info to ask some people for confirmation, plus the beginnings of a report that lets me follow up on the process.
I kinda hate it, but it's done useful things for me.

@susankayequinn I keep seeing this pull quote that keeps seeming to suggest that my aversion to having children, something I've intimately felt for as long as I can recall, could only be the result of being broken by abuse.

@epilanthanomai No, it's true that he wore the shaved head and goatee well, and not even because it made him look like Hawk from Spencer For Hire, his other famous character. But I think I really undersold him before then. And Kira. Like, she's a very relatable and nuanced character once you've studied ethnic cleansing and resistance movements.

@epilanthanomai Oh you mean in the episode where Thomas Riker joins the Maquis? I thought he had a goatee with no sideys?
