It’s true. I posted episode discussion threads at one point but they got little response. :(

As someone who bought “Super Mario Party” I feel you. We got at best 1/2 of a game and then nothing. I’m not sure I can be convinced to buy a Mario Party game again.

It sounds painful, and I’m concerned there will be too much menuing, but in general I’m trusting Nintendo on this one. (Well, maybe wait for a demo/review.)

Nobbleberry is my favorite show.

Re no discussion,

For some reason Movie/TV discussion on Lemmy is limited. I’m guessing it’s just too niche still. It’s an uphill battle but assholes like me are still here, so we can discuss.

Re no guards, I’m guessing it’s a combination of

• Ser Criston Cole putting guards in strategic locations to ensure he isn’t caught.

• Larys Strong eliminating a handful of hand maids (and similar folk), replaced with his own. These new folks might not have the family in mind.

• Kingsguard hanging out with King Aegon.

• Overall not expecting an attack like this. Kings Landing is confident if attacked it will be via dragon.

As far as I know. You could probably get fancy moving to dev mode and then install whatever, but I’m plenty happy with Debian.

Crostini. https://chromeos.dev/en/linux

A “one click” install of Debian (in a VM) that runs alongside your ChomeOS device. It’s a great starter tool for those getting used to Linux and even for the Linux Pro it gives you a terminal, which 99% of the time is all I need.

You can use GUI applications as well so GIMP and other tools are available.

Super easy, barely an inconvenience.

You’re probably right, but as I’m already in denial, I choose to dream.

Dunk is definitely the key, Egg just needs to have the chemistry with Dunk.

I think in the first book they are age 20, and 10 (or so) respectively, but I would imagine a slight aging up.

I also wouldn’t expect any big names, just a few small roles and then boom time for big leagues.

And of course, as a book reader forever in denial, maybe George will write at least a story or two before the show passes him again. She Wolves as planned, but Summerhall is the big finale he can’t miss again.

After House of the Dragon I’m excited to see this. Dunks intro is my favorite of the three released stories and after the catastrophe that was the Game of Thrones finale it seems HBO is willing to put in the time.

Someone please correct me, but a few months back on Mastodon I reported a post (on a different instance) and it went to the admin of my instance.

I assume it’s the same for Lemmy.

I’ve never heard that before and find it baffling.

Bulbasaur comes out of the gate with two types.

Charmander becomes Charizard with two types.

The first (or second) non-starter you encounter is Pidgy with two types.

The required Viridian Forest had Weedle with two types and if you only got a Caterpie, that becomes Butterfree who also has two types.

The number of two type Pokemon that you can catch at the start of the game is massive. Probably about half?

Last “standard” Pokemon game played was Let’s Go Eevee. The game gave Eevee an amazing moveset. I beat the entire game with just Eevee out front. With the exception of a few double battles no one else made it into the field. Up to Misty or so there was a tiny bit of challenge, but after that just Eevee one shooting everyone.

New champ Butthead didn’t stand a chance.

I think it’s fine if multiple of the “same” community exist.

If I were on Snooface and wanted to share/discuss a new game would I do it on, r/Gaming, r/Games, or r/TrueGaming? (Or yet another.)

If two communities are EXACTLY the same, then sure, merge them, but they are never EXACTLY the same.

Re “It could even a boat”, that’s Family Guy https://youtu.be/GKZJdaiJF84

But your point still stands.

To add, that same season they already killed Glenn.

He dies, but the show doesn’t really address it. The characters do, but the show at this point was SUPER clear when a character died. Extra slow motion, special music, the works. Then they spend like 6 episodes with him dead, but you really just don’t believe it. Then they reveal how he survived and it’s just ridiculous, it’s basically “the zombies just sorta give up for some reason”. (Or is it like a dozen headshots, I forget at this point).

Anyway, ALL that happens, then the season ends on a big cliffhanger. Unfortunately the tension is all wrong. The show was moving at a glacial pace where basically if you watched the season opener, the mid-season finale (see, above) and the finale, you’d be mostly caught up on the story. And so this finale robbed us of that too.

Also the Internet was full of spoilers saying it was Glenn (from the comics) such that all excitement was lost between seasons.

That’s a link to the most recent release of Firefox and the security vulnerabilities that were fixed.

You’ll notice the first one listed says, “This issue could allow an attacker to perform remote code execution and sandbox escape.”

So if you visited a site that exploited that bug, it escaped the sandbox and ran whatever code it wanted to. Since you were running as root it could do anything it wants. Your device is now the property of someone else. Potentially all your data has been stolen. You probably didn’t even notice.

Now. Realistically. You probably didn’t get exploited. Your device may not be vulnerable to that particular bug. But new bugs are found, and fixed, and created every day. Can you be sure you weren’t exploited?

Let’s look at it a different way. Think of it like driving a car with no seatbelt or airbags. As long as you don’t crash, you’re fine. The car still works fine without seatbelts and you have more freedom to move your arms around.

Let’s look at it a different way. Do you ever lock the door to your home/apartment? Heck do you even close the door? Why not leave it wide open?

At the end of the day security is about layers and the trade offs for convenience. You can run KDE as root, and you can run Firefox as root. You’ll probably be fine. It’s like driving without a seatbelt or leaving your front door wide open, but you can do it. If you do drive with a seatbelt and at least close your front door, you can probably run KDE and Firefox as a regular user.

It seems like a Vulcan Mind Meld can cure just about anything.

In “Flashback” from Voyager Tuvok melds with a close family member, in this case Janeway, to fix his disease.

In “Endgame” from Voyager it is implied that a meld will cure Tuvok’s disease.

In “Sarek” from TNG melding with Picard resolves Sarek’s emotional control.

I would expect rather than a sex industry they have those that specialize in mind melds. Perhaps a specific family member.

Having a backup option would still be logical, so random sex is still on the table.

As they noted in the article, Wonder Flowers still have a timer. Assuming the timer exists to give you a sense of urgency I think it worked well enough being attached to the flower.

Although the only time it really worked was the first special level that was themed around rhythm. Maybe one of the hippos.

Maybe some sort of time attack would be fun. Although less like the battle stages and more limited timer.
