This makes me feel like a fake fan cuz I don’t remember what either of these jokers do / understand why they’d be paired up 😂

This is super exciting, sddm works fine but this sounds like it’ll address all the little small problems I had with it. Other than proton games, sddm was the only reason I even had an x server installed on my pc and I can’t wait to ditch it for pure Wayland

Can’t say I’m excited about any hp product either, but the fact these big companies are openly preferring Linux to windows is a sign of the huge progress Linux has made and that’s super exciting imo

Sriracha sauce, it’s really good

Just to add to this, air at different temperatures and moisture levels bends light to different degrees, which is why the layers and pockets of air that form our atmosphere make stars shimmer. It’s partially why astronomers are so eager to get telescopes into space (like Hubble and the James Webb), since the lack of this effect lets them resolve much smaller light sources than you could hope to beneath the atmosphere.

I never follow celebrities and only recognized one person on the entire cast, so yeah I went into that very blind lol

Minor spoiler but there’s no foreshadowing for it so idk if it counts:

So iirc one of the actors came out as trans during the filming of the later seasons, and rather than force him to keep playing a woman they worked it into the show. I was personally a little startled cuz it happened with no foreshadowing and wasn’t strictly necessary for any of the plots, so at first I thought it was one of those rainbow capitalism token LGBTQ+ characters by writers that don’t know or care to find out what the character’s demographic is really like or goes thru. Felt a little bit patronizing and gross at first, so I can see why people might have been miffed.

Knowing the context with the actor tho, the fact that the trans plot line is a little rushed and sloppy is very forgivable imo, and I think they did the right thing even if the show’s perceived quality might have suffered a little for it.

I haven’t really read a lot of reviews of it to know for sure if that’s the part people complained about, but if it is then imo you shouldn’t let the complaints scare you off the show.

The fediverse’s first mass spammer, who’s been in everyone’s DMs (except ours, apparently) with the photo in OP’s pic. She’s become the new beans meme on lemmy

It’s a really shitty decision but I’d probably go for the shattered plains pre-Alethi, I absolutely love the vibes of the chasms and exploring with esshondai sounds fun. Just gotta remember to gtfo before dalinar shows up for the second time and hope I don’t get murked by a salty ancestor looking for a meat suit

Hello knife people, I (very much not a knife person) have been suckered in by dual_sport_dork’s posts and am finally biting the bullet and buying one of those knives. I know approximately nothing about knives except what weird knife Wednesday has taught me, which is mostly how to shit talk cursed knock-offs, so I’m hoping for some advice on how to stick the landing of my jump into this hobby.

I’m trying to buy HUAAO’s Bugout 535 ripoff, and this knife-buying-experience is off to a rocky start because the Amazon link on dual_sport_dork’s writeup tells me shipping isn’t available to my region. Maybe this is just seller-related, maybe these knives are illegal in Canada, I don’t know and to be real honest I don’t give a fuck. I found knivesprecisionedge.com, which claims to be a “trusted store” and “100% issue-free” - sketchy as fuck, honestly. Has anybody else used this site? How bad am I about to get scammed?

Assuming they’re at least somewhat legit and ship me this knife, and that it makes it into the country, is there anything I should know about owning a knife like this? Care tips, how not to use it, anything like that? The main thing it’ll be used for is as a camping knife, if that matters.
