I never argued the movies were good

I feel the same way, but the Clone Wars animated series really changed my opinion on what Lucas was going for with Anakin’s fall. The movies didn’t execute on the idea all that well, but when you add in the extra background the Clone Wars added, I think it made a lot more sense.

People judge him so harshly, but like, who among us hasn’t slaughtered a group of children?

The Uncharted series? It’s okay to play on an easy difficulty level, and they’re not too hard anyway.

If you really can’t fish it out, just use some drain cleaner. The dry crystal kind works very well and it’s inexpensive.

They got 99 bad guys, but a genome soldier ain’t one?

With systemd, you set the default target to something other than a desktop environment.

That statement in the article is misleading. It’s only paywalled while it’s in beta. After that he releases to the public for free.

The measly $3/month he asks for pays for him to run a small team of people who analyze boards and schematics, document those findings (also released to the public) and create cores for several different FPGA devices (built upon his own development framework which helps speed up the process). Jotego is probably doing the most to preserve arcade games in FPGA form out of all of the developers who do such work.

I happily pay the $3 every month. Recently Jotego was responsible for producing a finished TMNT core (Furrtek did the board schematics but he dislikes writing cores), The Simpsons, OutRun and more. Moonwalker is just another in a long line of excellent releases.

Any sort of point and click on a game console that only had a D-pad for controlling the pointer. I find them painful and unenjoyable.

I have this one from a previous sale. It’s good!

It would be great if this were compatible with the upcoming CM5 as well.

I’d recommend getting a good quality Bluetooth adapter known to work well in Linux. Even a decent one shouldn’t be expensive. Avoid combo BT/wifi sticks.

Oh, I agree. The older GoW games are perhaps my favorite of their era.

Totally agree. I bought these on sale earlier this year, and I was like, “THIS is what everyone kept recommending?”

They can be fun, but they’re PS2 God of War meets Star Wars. I think if you have no nostalgia for them, they’re 6.5/10 at best.

Running multiple virtual machines might be one use for all that RAM. I completely agree about going with a NUC (or similar x86-64) unless power consumption is a concern. I stopped buying SBCs once Intel platforms started competing on the low end.

I always recommend Pop_OS! for beginners. It’s IMHO a lot closer to what Ubuntu used to be, uses apt and/or flatpaks (and no snaps), has sane defaults, a good installer, a decent company behind it, nvidia drivers included and their upcoming Cosmic desktop environment looks sick.

Also, I feel like this is a better Fedora-based distro for beginners since it’s harder to break:

Yeah, I’ve read about his refusal to let people enjoy it. That’s a shame as it’s one of my favorite MST3K episodes.

Keep circulating the tapes!

I wonder if there’s beer on the Sun…
