Happy Days when the Fonz jumped a shark on waterskis.

Ant Man is mostly unemployed by the time he becomes a superhero. That seems most relatable in these times.

That second sentence is a bald faced lie. I lost grub thanks to a failed update and then 2 days of my life trying to repair it.

Not as good, but decent enough, is Shadowplay. It’s set in the immediate aftermath of WW2 and has a US detective trying to upskill a Berlin police unit and find his psychotic brother.

You must construct additional pylons.

Words to live by.

Nazi era Germans could at least plead ignorance of genocide. In this day and age, with access to massive amounts of information, there’s no excuse. They’ve made a deliberate decision that they’re ok with ethnic cleansing.

You could put it up on ResearchGate first to get eyes across it and potentially get an endorsement. Then reach out to the endorser to get sponsored for arXiv.

The other option is to submit it for peer review. You’d need to to look up the best pathway based on your field.

I’m anti-general purpose LLMs, but this is a valid use case for “ai”. There are known constraints, the model is trained on a very specific dataset, and you have have human experts in the loop for assurance.

This also isn’t new. Protein folding models have been successfully used, and validated, for a number of years.

Guns ‘N Roses - Welcome to the Jungle. I don’t like GNR full stop, but the radio station I used to wake up to on the alarm clock would play that song at exactly the same time everyday.

Couldn’t understand why I used to wake up angry every morning until I changed stations.

Babylon Berlin (DE) is amazing. They really nailed the tail end of the roaring ‘20s, and the subsequent market crash and rise of fascism. Great homage to old school film noir.

Gomorrah (IT) centres around a cocaine smuggling crime family. Lots of interpersonal politics within the family and between other syndicates. I think it was season 3 (could have been season 2) that dragged a little bit but the rest had me hooked.

So aggressive. I love it!

New Zealand music month is great for getting out and seeing local bands play.

Just need to misidentify a suspected bomber and we’re on the home stretch to mainstream popularity.

This is a weird one, but read up on folder structures. If you’ve used MacOS at all then the logic is very similar. However if you’re coming from a pure windows background then it can get confusing figuring out where everything gets put when you install applications or need to make changes to config files.

The Pop desktop environment and search works well the vast majority of the time but it’s handy to know how to find you’re way around when you hit a roadblock.

Make music, write terrible sci-fi, and publish economics research (assuming we haven’t reached post-scarcity yet).

Basically I’d have time to actually dedicate myself to my hobbies.

Nvidia is fine and I have a 3080. I have vrr on my 4k display working fine when run with 2 non vrr 1080p monitors, and full hdr support. That’s using the 570 driver in fedora.

I just want to remove podcasts and audiobooks from my homepage.

The “Remote playback with a Remote Watch Pass subscription” just sounds like IPTV with extra steps. I’m kind of ok with them requiring Plex Pass for remote streaming for the server owner, but then I have lifetime so it doesn’t affect me. Might feel differently I was having to pay.

Piper is a godsend. It’s better than Logitech G Hub and much more like Logitech’s old simple software that let you quickly remap buttons.

Pop OS worked straight out of the box with the Nvidia driver build BUT it’s using an old version of Gnome desktop environment so doesn’t have support for HDR or VRR. Pop is based on Ubuntu so all the Debian and Ubuntu terminal commands will be familiar.

Fedora is leading edge and so long as you opt in for non-open source drivers works with Nvidia and runs HDR and VRR in KDE (haven’t used the Gnome version).

Haven’t tried any other distros but Bazzite seems well recommended.

Lutris is the recommended software for non-steam games. If you search for that and Sims/EA you should be able to find out if it’ll work for you.

I only use windows now for sim racing and Vr, but I also don’t play online games with anti-cheat. Linux seems pretty stable and I’ve found it easy to use.
