  • Why don't they call it Planet Trek? You never go to a star. Not one episode.

  • How would a web browser achieve that? The only thing I can think of is for the browser to choose what sort of web content should be filtered out and what should actually be displayed to the user, which I think we all agree is not what you would want your browser to choose.

  • Borchert, Borchert, loved computers more than women's butts or hooters.

  • I preferred the monster of the week episodes of both series, but that may just be me.

  • It bothers you that someone would report it? Or that someone took the time/effort to actually directly message you claiming that they did so?

  • And nope, not named after the Farscape character...

    Pronounced like “Erin”, it’s a name that we feel is more befitting of the project. Pulling from multiple etymologies, it’s a name that better describes the project now versus the project that started as Serpent OS.

    “Aer” is rather obvious, Latin in origin. The phonetic “Erin” is a nod to the Irish roots of the project, and of course a home. There are a number of reasons for the name, which will form part of the initial documentation on the new website.

    Our intent is to have a name that is more inviting, and more descriptive of the project’s goals and aspirations. We’re not anti-establishment or anti-corporation - if anything, we’re a statement that without the fiscal handcuffs, we can produce a technically sound and user-friendly operating system.

    What does AerynOS mean and how do I pronounce it?

    AerynOS is a stylised spelling of “Erin”, alluding to the project’s Irish roots. It is pronounced exactly the same as “Erin” - “AIR-in” OS. It’s also a play on “aer” and the phonetic “air” sound, indicative of our desire to produce an open, trusted and high-performance operating system.

    It’s pronounced as “AIR-in” OS.

  • Not a huge deal to some but as a music producer it was a huge huge loss. (Now I am going to just run off external drives for thet)

    Oof, regardless of OS, it is smart to keep your important files off of your OS drive. Yeah, an external drive is one way to do that.

  • you still need to Google every day basic functions like installing programs etc

    To be fair, I had to do that when I tried macOS for a while years back. That is just part of learning to use any new operating system. But after a while, once you understand the basics, you will no longer need to use a reference for the basics. Linux is no different in that regard.

    you still have to learn terminal commands

    The only time I use the terminal is for things that are just simpler to automate via a command line. Things that I would be using a command line to achieve if I were using Windows/macOS. The kinds of things that I do in Termux on Android.

  • Basically just 2048. I have actually had a single 7x7 game going for literally months.

  • There are definitely visual similarities, especially if you are watching the episode in 1960's quality. But in the modern remaster, the eyes look more like they are probably something like foam spheres with plastic gems glued on.

  • the eyes were microphone covers.

    This is the second time I have seen that said on Lemmy, and I just don't see it. Do you have a source for that? I cannot find anything.

  • If I remember correctly, this type of study is inherently flawed because it just measures how long fluids stay in your body before you urinate, which is a useless metric. There is no benefit to a fluid staying in your system for a longer amount of time than the equivalent amount of a different fluid. Please correct me if I am wrong.

  • I know next to nothing about how this all works, but I would assume you go through DoorDash to get everything sorted in this situation, not Best Buys.
