I mean, Tom Paris is a convicted terrorist and has abducted and mutated his captain in order to have sex with her. Successfully. And that’s just who immediately springs to mind.
Starfleet is a wild bunch.

Yep. I run Garuda and the main pull is that it’s a more user-friendly Arch with a lot of stuff I want to use preinstalled. I don’t really care about how XTREME it is or whether I might potentially get 1 FPS more.
It’s a pun on the Met Gala. Honestly, this might be the most sensible Heathcliff I’ve seen so far.
Also, Ubuntu is moving towards using snaps for everything so they’re pretty much the successor to PPAs.
Mostly yes but there’s one other option that simplifies the whole thing: Chromebooks. They’re actually pretty decent for someone who doesn’t need much beyond a browser, a mail client, and a basic office suite.
Sure, they’re tied to Google with all that entails but they can be a real option for someone like a senior who relies on relatives for tech support.
Notable for being a class of substances that freaks out Erowid, a website that otherwise thinks that just about every drug can be used safely if you know what you’re doing. If it freaks them out it freaks me out.
True. It’s just the automated transfer that doesn’t work.
I didn’t bring up F-Droid’s very existence as an argument because iOS also allows a form of sideloading these days. Android still makes it a lot easier but Apple isn’t entirely out of the loop anymore. Baby steps, I guess.
The cost of one warp core, obviously. But don’t worry, I know a guy who can hook you up with a new-looking Starfleet-spec warp core for a very reasonable price. Why, if you tell him I sent you he might even give you a discount. What do you say, captain?
If you accept the offer, go to page 285. Otherwise close the book; you’re done.
I’m the spirit of fairness I will nitpick you.
Firstly, porting apps over between Android devices works seamlessly only if those apps come from the Play Store. Android has no provisions for auto-transferring e.g. F-Droid and its apps. So it’s no wonder you can’t transfer your iOS apps (which might not even have Android versions). But it is true that auto-transfers of Play Store apps between different Android spins is seamless.
Secondly, whether and how easily you can modify or replace your Android is dependent on the phone’s manufacturer. A Pixel is a very different beast from an Xperia in that regard. Still, Google do provide AOSP and are very mod-friendly on their own devices. Apple very much aren’t.
Then again, those 100 MB are usually mostly assets I want to look at or listen to. Certain websites contain 100 kB of text and pictures I want to look at and load 2 MB of JavaScript frameworks that add nothing to the usability of the site. Bonus points for automatically streaming a 20 MB video I don’t want to watch while I look for one sentence’s worth of information.
“Post-Capitalist Ferenginar Simulator‽ I’ll never let people run unvetted programs in my holosuites again!”
Garuda’s gaming spin should. At least mine runs on Plasma 6 + Wayland and I didn’t do anything special to get there.
Soon they will launch their new product, Copy of New Teams Classic (work or school) (2).
I think Latte-Dock has been unmaintained for some time now. It’s a dead project and maybe doesn’t even work properly with Plasma 6. So it’s a good time to drop it.
Or maybe Jadzia would wink at the camera and write down “Rick Berman’s career”.
On the one hand I like the basic idea, on the other hand I think that some fundamental problems aren’t fully solved yet. There big use case are passkeys and direct password manager integration – neither mesh well with the idea of software that isn’t allowed to talk to most of the system.
I’m certain that this will be resolved at some point but for now I don’t think Flatpak and its brethren are quite there yet.
True, although that made people think that Windows 2000 was the intended successor to Windows 98 – me included. Not that I minded; in my opinion Windows 2000 was straight up better than Windows XP until XP SP2 came out. Anyway, Microsoft spends far too much time getting cute with version numbers.
They could’ve sold Windows 2000 as Windows NT 5 and Windows Me as Windows 2000; that would’ve kept the “NT X” versioning scheme for the professional line and the year-based scheme for the consumer line.
But the versioning scheme for the NT line is all kinds of weird in general. Windows 7 is NT 6.1. Windows 8 is NT 6.2. So we’ve established that the product name is independent of the version now. That means that Windows 10 is NT… 10.0. Windows 11 is also NT 10.0.
Okay.
“Wait, the Bajorans somehow managed to install every hallway on the station upside down and you somehow only noticed when the entire thing was finished?”
“Yes, sir. Do you want us to execute them all?”
“No, I’m actually kind of impressed. Well do nothing to them; they earned this one. But do assign that jackass Dukat to the planet and move his office up here.”
“You want his office to be on a shoddily built orbital ore progressing facility instead of the planetary capital?”
“If you’d ever met him you’d know why.”
By the time he was turning into a lizard, apparently so.
