Prometheus may even be the best Alien film ever made.

At the time of its release perhaps the original Alien was more inventive, but I’ve watched both well over 13 times each by now, and Prometheus has everything you get from Alien and more. The story of the latest film of the franchise felt like a money grab, and would’ve probably been better if it was adapted for television than the big screen. Ridley loves to spend time on world building, so his ego was probably hurt when Prometheus went in new directions while failing to meet the desired expectations.

If you are concerned by fascism, I recommend calling your representatives and even writing letters to them.

In the case above, a sensible well written letter sent by an individual that was put in power to defend the interests of the American people is not fascism.

It’s important to understand what Fascism looks like. Such as every billionaire bending the knee when a politician gains power, or what we see with Musk in an invented cabinet position. The merger of government and corporate powers which will directly hurt the interests of the people in a state.

My handwriting is publicly available as a font I made from scratch as a teenager, so definitely that one.

Short of a live usb, I think archinstall might be the fastest way to get started on Linux. From beginning to end it took me ~3min the other day.

As long as we can never fully understand when or how it will turn red, and sometimes when you wrap it in towels it stops being red, I’m all for it.

I know someone personally who can finish multiple thousand-page books in a single day, I’ve always been jealous. They are now a librarian, and I’ve asked them many of the same questions you’re asking.

I recommend getting:

• the Libby app (and several library cards)
• a Kindle (or similar device)
• purchase fresh paperbacks

Figure out which format works best for you.

For me, as I’ve gotten older I’ve found that audiobooks allow me to be the most productive, while consuming books. I still have books I will read on paperbacks, but they allow me to take risks on books I wouldn’t want to dedicate as much time and effort toward.

For me the GOAT is https://around.co

I haven’t used anything but Around (internally) for the last 5 years, and then someone external sends me a google meet invite or a zoom and I cringe.

So OpenVibe but it isn’t free and doesn’t support Nostr?

Arm-powered PCs are still nowhere

They are everywhere. A mac is a Personal Computer and I will die on that hill.

Not saying cutting people out is wrong, you do you. But don't you think all of this alienation we are collectively doing is leading to the echo chambers that reinforce bad behaviors?

I have nothing productive to add to your shower thought, so here is evidence of Trump in the ring shaving middle class heads. https://youtu.be/5NsrwH9I9vE
