    Maybe try CachyOS? Worked fine out of the box for me EXCEPT for random display freezes due to high refresh rates. Knocked it down to 60Hz everything is fine now.

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    So, the imaginary 8-bit super system emulator is going quite well. However, I did have to start over because completely "vibe-coding" it (i.e., winging it) got out of hand. It started "drifting" and creating a complex arcade-level thing that probably couldn't have existed in the early 80s. So...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I'd be worried about woke shit, but the game already has plenty of that.

    Absolutely amazing. Hollywood is cooked as the cool kids say.

    No Rest For The Wicked

    I picked this up during the free weekend. Graphics at 4K with everything maxed is just gorgeous. Absolutely beautiful game. Not far enough in for whatever tedium to set in.

    These are excellent. What did you use?

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    Going to be a while before anything substantial can run. Slowly working through the full Z80 implementation. I imagine there already exists a library for this, but this is fun rolling "my" own. Also, I'm probably about to run out of tokens for the Cursor agents.

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    So this is pretty nerdy, but I'm having a blast with it: I started a conversation with ChatGPT exploring a 'what-if' scenario: What would a super advanced 8-bit games console from the 80s look like if we ignored the cost restrictions of the time? Basically, design the most powerful 8-bit...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Has anyone here ever dealt with a new greenfield project that kicked off with a GM, only for that GM to leave shortly after? We're currently waiting on a replacement, but we're wondering if what we're building is just gonna get shit-canned anyway.

    Has anyone built their own Clawdbot yet? This sounds like a hacker's dream to me.

    Then who the fuck gave this 5 stars?

    Yeah, well maybe, but literally no one wants that.

    Star Trek: Starfleet Academy

    The way that bitch sits in her captain's chair is enraging. Drinker's right -- this is Star Trek for people who hate Star Trek.

    The Night Manager

    Well, if anything, the brunette is mega hot.

    Star Trek: Starfleet Academy

    Keep in mind that we're supposedly in the 32nd century. The writers have absolutely zero imagination. I mean, seriously, who are these people writing this shit? How can anyone be this bad and still have a job?

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    You know what would be cool? A modern day re-creation of the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon from the '80s, targeted at the kids from back then who are now adults. They can then use all the contemporary slang and swear words they want.

    The Beast in Me

    I just started this.. only a few episodes in. It's fine. But I just wanted to say, Claire Danes is not aging well. I remember first seeing her with Leonardo DiCaprio in Romeo + Juliet. They both looked like babies to me back then. Now, both look older than me. Super weird.

    Bugonia (2025)

    I thought this was great and at no point was I bored. Avoid the recent RLM video. They will spoil it.

    Predator: Badlands

    Watched a Russian screener, but had English subtitles. I thought this was decent. Definitely worth the free download.

    Worst movie you've ever seen?

    I just can't think of anything else that left a visceral, lasting impression of dislike. If a movie was bad then it was just forgettable I suppose.

    Worst movie you've ever seen?

    For me? Interstellar. I know it isn't a 'bad' movie it's actually a great one in many ways. But I absolutely loathe it. As someone who loves science and astronomy, I find it infuriatingly stupid, even though they brought in Kip Thorne (a real Nobel Prize winning physicist) to consult on the...

    And I bet she barely weighs 90lbs wet. I like 'em skinny, but this chick needs to eat some hamburgers big time.

    They don't make 'em like this anymore. That's for damn sure.

    Discovered a YouTube channel that recommends sci-fi movies that people may have missed. The Quiet Earth (1985) - really enjoyed this. Super cool ending scene. Freaks (2018) - surprisingly good low budget film. I thought the child actor was great.

    What difference does it make? I thought Carol has to willingly accept conversion?

    I don't believe this is the finale. Season is 10 episodes, the one that just dropped is #9.

    Shazbot! That's all they had to do. Just make up something.

    I do enjoy both of these series, but I really wish they'd cut out the contemporary swearing.

    If you stay within the Steam ecosystem then about 90% of everything "just works". No need to fiddle with anything.

    Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (2026)

    Totally agree. I don't care if it's "in the comics!". There's also versions of Kara where she's not a piece of shit. How about a big-titty Power Girl? I'd buy that for a dollar!

    Yeah, I enjoyed the episode quite a bit. Wasn't bored. And holy fuck those trees. Right out of some alien planet.
