  • Who were some of your childhood heroes that turned out to be horrible people?

    Jump

  • I used to look up to him, and met him at an astronomy symposium once. (About one of my actual heroes, Galileo!)

    I dunno, he's not horrible, he was just like, so obviously pissed that people recognized him and wanted autographs and a picture lol.

    I kinda understand, and he had the patience to put up with it. He wasn't outright mean to me or anything, but geeze man, you don't gotta so obviously display contempt for the kids who will be carrying the torch because you inspired them.

    Anyway, I forgive him. Was just a little disappointed.

    I feel his frustration at sharing the world with a lot of stupid people, but he's another one of those science communicators like Tyson, who get to a point where they get smarmy and smug and holier-than-thou.

    Like damn, maybe we could be on a similar level if we could get paid to learn things too, sirs.

  • Using gas blowback airsoft models when other people are involved is still plenty authentic enough these days, especially because muzzle flash and smoke is easily added in post at this point if it's even required.

    Modifying for allowing for dry fire is probably not terribly hard to do.

    Heck, they're probably also easier to get exotic designs made for one-off props, too.

    As a casual gun enthusiast. I really don't understand the motivation to use real firearms on movie sets.

  • This is the party of bringing back child labor, they're probably rubbing their hands together and molesting their couches thinking about the draft, too.

  • Thank you, yes, exactly what I meant. It's a bit baffling such a mature project doesn't have some kind of migration script. :(

  • ICE plans to build mega warehouses for immigration detention spark growing concern

    Jump

  • So all those folks who were screaming about hidden secret FEMA camps for this purpose gotta be locking and loading and losing their poo right about now, right? Right?

    The "told ya so" energy has to be over 9000x on this insanity right‽

    Oh suddenly they're so quiet. . .

  • Heads up if your Paperless is installed via Docker: be VERY CAREFUL about your database version and do an export often!

    Mine has been down for a while because I did a pull and it doesn't support my version of Postgresql anymore. So it's kinda a huge mess trying to figure out how to safely migrate it in the container.

    I haven't been able to fix it yet so I've just left it disabled and gone without for a while. It's not fun.

    Allegedly if you export from within Paperless, you can just start with a fresh updated database container and import when this happens. Oof.

  • That's so freaking sad. No wonder I've noticed all these placards at every medical establishment now that say "We will not tolerate any aggression towards our staff."

    I hope they enforce the notion, but I'm so sad such a sign is necessary in the first place.

  • So true. It's so insidious because there's that vague hope that there's a tiny chance he finds it and never goes back to work, or whatever.

    It's right there, balanced just at the end of his fingertips over the gaping maw of madness, like Indie in the Last Crusade reaching for the Holy Grail.

    He needs that kindly father figure to tell him

    "Lett et gohh, shon..."

    I had binders full of Pokemon cards as a kid. Just collected em. They just disappeared after a few moves. It bothers me intensely to this day, what I could sell them for and what that could solve, or even just knowing what the heck happened. I wish I never bothered with them...

  • One of the classic blunders!

    ... Unless they're using an airgapped device or carefully sandboxed VM (even still lol) to satisfy that curiosity.

    Ugh I admit I'd be curious lol.

  • and one was Nvidia removing support for GTX1000 cards and older (Nvidia, WHYYYYYYYY?!).

    Yeah this one REALLY sucked on my laptop still running a 960M. But hey, after the fix (which I think was just locking the driver package?) I just don't gotta worry anymore, so that's cool.

  • Woo! Tumbleweed is fantastic. I agree! I used to only do creative/productive stuff with it, but I finally moved all my gaming over a couple years ago and it's been handling everything I've thrown at it, on Nvidia! Whereas Win10 was bluescreening Vermintide 2 and saying "This app is too old :(" for my older games.

    I think the only thing Tumbleweed wouldn't be great for, is capped Internet plans. X_X
