in case any of you schlubs need more storage on your macintrash… (( after watching the vijeo, it’s quite obviously beyond my skillset (and eyes) but at least there’s a cheaper option than the ole boo-foo, choo-choo from Jobs ))

in an homage to the beloved 80’s movie, DARPA uses a laser to transfer 800 watts some 5 miles away and use it to make popcorn #style https://www.theregister.com/AMP/2025/05/19/darpa_energy_beaming_record/

Just saw a headline that Season 3 has been green-lit already. Season 2 is not airing until December. Much surprise at this since it is an Amazon production. They are normally horrible about signing off on a new season early. https://bgr.com/entertainment/prime-video-just-shared-an-exciting-update-about-its-best-original-series/

@orc clouds board apparently doesn’t like the quotes symbol for minutes being used twice… think i fixed it and don’t forget the deep-fried Tribble… they’re sooo delish !!

@halfgiant said in Plotting with the manaverse: If Feb 8th is the day being referred to, then Yes i can swing that. Yeah, I meant the 8th. I was dealing with my daughter’s make up driver’s ed class on the 6th. had that date stuck in my head.

@halfgiant said in Windows Operating System: I’m looking to setup to run Windows on my new laptop for gaming. Is Windows 11 a hot mess these days? What is recommended? I run Windows 11 on my work laptop and have no issues running games on it. At least ones that the on board video can support. No issues with Windows itself. I’ll agree that there is a fuck ton of telemetry built in. Even disabling it with various tools only really helps until the next major update (H1/H2 cycle).

I admit its kind of cool, but a bit impractical i have a head lamp that does the same thing.

mebbe a cabin by the lake >:) [image: Y5eBFer.jpeg]

just waiting to see what the shipping home cost is for Cloud’s new toy

@dwarf I’m impressed since the band is kind of niche, the production value of their videos are not bad. And its a catchy tune.

@dwarf said in finally de-WOKEing star trek ??: news on the wire is that the finale of Lower Decks (which is apparently canon) just pushed Star Trek Buttpirate into an official parallel reality… lets hope there’s some kind of confirmation from paramount >:) (( i haven’t watched either Lower Decks or Dickovery - so if any of ya do, check it out )) Star Trek Just Erased An Entire Series From Canon https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/star-trek-erased.html Its true, they have been talking about it for a while now. Discovery was so bad, and so terribly woke, and got so much of it wrong they had to erase it versus the 2nd season of Picard’s ending in which they just try not to talk about.
