Probably Dune. Tried to read it severl times, and each time it’s a boring slog with characters that are hard to relate to. Maybe I just like personal journey stories over big political ones

Another book that I’ve had trouble reading through is Neuromancer. I get that it’s cyberpunk and all that, but it just doesn’t really have a grip on me

Yeah, it’s rather inconsistent with what it can or cannot see

Try making an Aves album and then moving the pictures in it using a file manager

cursed

Maybe AI could solve it – at least, that’s what Scott Alexander has proposed back in 2014. His idea was that of an AGI that would optimize human life (or the universe itself, I guess) for human values instead of profit or other things that drive the whole Moloch problem he thoroughly describes. I imagine housing would also be solved along the way lol

The effort of using machines to mimic the human mind has always struck me as rather silly: I’d rather use them to mimic something better.

I use Aves Libre, personally

I just want a Rendezvous with Rama movie tbh

wow

Average molecular biology moment

Every day we rot! Our flesh becomes more and more… broken. It degrades, Douglath! For flesh is only temporary, but the love of a dog is eternal.

Space duende balls lmao

I mean, we’re talking about a simulated world, in which the reality itself is constantly glitching out. I think weird chemistry is on par with the rest of the NMS’ weirdness

Is there a compatibility list and performance difference?

The closest thing I know is ProtonDB

I think PeerTube could possibly work for streamer VOD channels, since a lot of them probably keep them locally for archival/backup purposes, anyway. I’ve seen people mention thar PT uses BitTorrent for streaming videos to other users – I think that could work for this particular purpose

I believe Redshift can change screen brightness depending on time of day. At least, it says so in the manpage

CalCurse is cool, if you’re into CLI tools
