Severance — Season 2 Date Announcement | Apple TV+
  • Absolutely. Also, one great season doesn't make a show great, as True Detective has demonstrated already. As much as I enjoyed the first half of GoT, couldn't make myself rewatch it, because it ended up being a bad show. I hope I can rewatch Severance several times in my life.

  • Anon goes to the pet store
  • Can relate. I became insomniac a few years ago. Couldn't sleep until 4 or 5 in the morning sometimes, trying to stay afloat in my life on three or four hours of bad sleep a day. After watching a stray cat for several days or weeks, we finally adopted it. He kept yelling at me to feed him every morning, the little bastard. It helped me start the day because I couldn't let him go hungry because he was always looking out for me. I love the way cats make themselves at home. They may look like lazy little moochers, but they are disciplined and take care of themselves all the time, their lives have structure. You can learn a lot from the way they spend their time.

  • What's the cutest animal that you'd be terrified to get close to?
  • Domesticated dogs are still one of the most deadly species to humans. Wild and smart is a hell of a combination. BTW, one of the other most deadly species to humans are humans, so they being "eerily human" is kind of frightening. Not trying to argue here, just, I still think they are cute and deadly.

  • Biker gang
  • Mine used to take half an hour removed about my lazyness to feed them, but I was on time, not them. Got fed up (pun intended) and bought a couple of automated feeders. Not my problem anymore. Weird fact: instead of removed and yelling to the auto-feeder, they wait silently in front of it for the very same amount of time or more.

  • The Paradox of Tolerance
  • Hold on. I get tolerance to Nazis is not something societies should procure, but I personally will take anyone holding a banner, no matter how stupid it is, against anyone holding a weapon against whatever they find stupid.

    Of course, if those holding banners start grabbing guns, that's another thing.

    EDIT: to all your rabid replies, understand one thing: I don't support racist ideas. I do prefer stupid people with banners rather than stupid people with weapons. It's not that hard to understand.

  • Netflix's Supacell does not deserve its 100% RT score. 80% tops
  • RT is a joke but particularly the tomatometer. IIRC a 51/100 is considered a positive review for the tomatometer. So, a hundred of 51/100 reviews will give it a 100% tomatometer score. Of course this doesn't happen a lot but you get the point.

    Now, Supacell. Damn, it sucks big time. I like watching southern London and black people culture on TV, but the value of a TV show like that must rely on the narrative, and the narrative of this show is just amateur.

  • [2024] Thank you for participating!!
  • I did find out a couple of days earlier, but for the love of God, I couldn't make any sense out of what was happening. What is a canvas? How do people contribute to it? Why? For what reason? What's its goal? What does it mean?

  • Alec Baldwin’s involuntary manslaughter case dismissed, cannot be filed again
  • It is not about you, specifically. One people do not make a culture. But see, what I find baffling is that real guns are taken into movie sets, when they repeatedly have been used to kill cast and crew members since decades ago, and it is still not prohibited. School shootings, attempted assassination of presidential candidates, Wal-Mart shootings with guns sold in place, bar massacres, etc. they all come from this gun culture.

    Take a look at user Thorny_Insight higly upvoted comment. While I guess I should be appreciative of its informative content, I just find violent that, without any warning, they link to a photograph of a loaded revolver pointing at the viewer's face without realizing that is probably kind of fucked up. That's what baffles me, like, no fucking kidding those guns are real?! A man was killed. Then they show me a photograph of a loaded revolver pointing at my face to demonstrate how real real guns look like. I hope you see my point.

    GitHub - icefields/Power-Ampache-2: second version of my popular ampache Android app

    Years ago, when Owncloud was still the only self hosted cloud solution around, the Music app used to come with an Ampache backend to connect to your music through client apps. My favorite for Android was Power Ampache, it was almost the only one, that and an extension for the really old Just Player. After a while, a Subsonic server was added to the Music app and these Subsonic clients proliferated. So, I switched to a Subsonic client, then another, and another... none was really doing it for me. DSub is great but looks dated and lacks some features, others are not mature enough, and some I just find too barebones.

    Recently, Power Ampache 2 was released, and even though it's still in beta or even alpha, it already looks great and my favorite client again. Check it out if you have an Ampache server or a Nextcloud instance with music!

    How to update to Nobara 39 if transaction test errors arise

    So, I was having a hard time trying to update Nobara 38 to Nobara 39. Did the KDE swap, followed the website instructions to upgrade but in the last part, after:

    $sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=39 -y

    I'd get:

    Error: Transaction test error:

    file /usr/lib64/libopenh264.so.2.3.1 conflicts between attempted installs of noopenh264-0.1.0~openh264_2.3.1-2.fc39.x86_64 and openh264-2.3.1-2.fc39.x86_64

    Tried several solutions to this without success but noticed it's just that two packages in the upgrade are trying to write the same file. My solution was to just disable the openh264 Cisco repo for the upgrade with:

    $sudo dnf config-manager --set-disabled fedora-cisco-openh264

    You can do this also in the Diskover preferences.

    After disabling the Cisco repo you can proceed with:

    $sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=39 -y

    $sudo system-upgrade reboot

    Then, after a successful upgrade, go to Diskover > Preferences and enable (check) the fedora_cisco_openh264 repo. Finally, do perform a system update with Nobara update tool. Install whatever it tells you it's missing and then you are done.

    Figured I'd share this here since the threads in Reddit don't show any clear fix to the problem. Hope someone can use it.

    Rulfo's reprimands are serious business!

    You guys seem to think my boy is all cute when he is angry, but he's some kind of monster of the week from the X-Files when he's scolding at my face! Here is proof.

    One millisecond before a scold

    So, Rulfo (aka Chochi) had been following me all over the house meowing loudly at me for like half an hour. I sat on the table, he followed me of course. Sat right next to me and continued meowing at my face. This is he, an instant before one of his reprimands.

    How do you feel about financing a genocide?

    I didn't want to direct this question to Americans specifically because, at this point, other countries have shown support to Israel in one or the other way. If my country was financing this, I would be taking the streets. Shit, I'm right now in the hospital but all I can think about is protesting anyway just to feel I did something to stop this madness.

    Are you doing something about this? Are you feeling unsettled? How do you feel about all this mess?

    EDIT: So, buying Chinese stuff takes the USS Gerald Ford to Gaza’s coast. Also, TIL that that chocolate my cousin gave me when she was 20 and I was 5, (delicious stuff!) made me a slavist-ish. The fact remains, this genocide is being paid and supported by taxpayers money; of course, I was hoping that most of us didn’t pay taxes wishing for this. Thank you all for your responses, some of them were hard to swallow.
