  • Developer patches Wine to make Photoshop 2021 & 2025 run on Linux — Adobe Creative Cloud installers finally work thanks to HTML, JavaScript and XML fixes

    Jump

  • I personally never want to touch anything Adobe ever again, but for my father’s and grandfather’s use cases, they still need it, so if it ends up working well, maybe it’ll finally allow them to use Linux.

  • San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers In Your Hair) | Rufus Wainwright Orchestral Recording

    Jump

  • Late gen Z, generally modern indie centric tastes; there might be a deeper genre name than that, but that’s what I can think of off the top of my head. Also has some 70s-90s stuff, including picking up a few of my favorite They Might Be Giants songs, mostly Lincoln-era stuff.

  • San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers In Your Hair) | Rufus Wainwright Orchestral Recording

    Jump

  • I don’t know.

    If anything, me and my younger sibling were actively annoyed by a lot of the show’s music choices, and modern show music in general. In both this show and recent Stranger Things seasons, they put music in every single moment, even moments that should be silent.

  • What's going on with Betazoids in Academy? [spoilers]

    Jump

  • Based on what @ValueSubtracted mentioned, maybe the signing is something to do with when you’re Tan Elbrum-level powerful, telepathic communication isn’t a good idea?

    Also, I felt like they did demonstrate some telepathic, not merely empathic, ability in the episode; I’ve only watched it once, so I can’t quite recall my evidence, but it seemed they could get surface-level thoughts beyond emotion, like “you’ve lost someone” instead of just “grief”. I wonder if it’s a consent/pushing too hard thing, somewhat like soothing and rioting in Mistborn; if the average Betazoid tries to get beyond the surface level of thought, the target will be able to tell, and their privacy will feel invaded.

  • Prime Video Orders Animated Series ‘Odd Jobs’ From ‘Solar Opposites’ Team

    Jump

  • Wonder if Chris Westlake is coming back for this one, since he did both Solar Opposites and Lower Decks.

    It’s incredibly ironic this show is coming out on Amazon, though.

  • Removed

    I don't get why they're okay with this

    Jump

  • True. At my tech helpdesk, I've seen people who keep their Macs on very old versions even if their hardware supports much newer (and non-Tahoe) versions and suffer problems because of it.

    For instance, the other day, a woman's Microsoft Office quit working because she was still on Ventura, which no longer gets security updates. This was on what I believe was a 2022 Macbook.

    I think something is seriously wrong with Apple's update system. I mean, the Windows approach is objectively wrong, but automatic update systems need to be at least a bit aggressive.

  • [Meta] RE: Starfleet Academy

    Jump

  • I get the complaints of lackluster writing in SNW S3, but also, you haven't seen truly bad media until you've watched either Twisters or Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, which makes Discovery season 2 seem downright straightforward and well-written by comparison.

    It's not the best consolation, but it could go much worse. Also, I feel like if I had a choice, I'd take being strapped to a chair and forced to watch SNW season 3 looped 2.5 times over the same for TNG season 1.

  • [Meta] RE: Starfleet Academy

    Jump

  • Unless it does something egregious, I'll probably push myself through it no matter what for the sake of completionism.

    Speaking of which, I need to do that for Disco's last couple seasons before I start the show.

  • My biggest worry is what they do with the Klingons in the 31st century; they’re probably going to talk about how war-torn and poor Qo’Nos is or have the planet have gotten blow up or something dumb like that.

    I’d love to have it so that either Qo’Nos surprisingly has had its crap together and managed to avoid brutal civil wars post-burn, with the result being in defiance of all expectations, it was one of the better planets to get stuck on after the Burn.
