This is what I needed to see today. Thank you

Critically panned, across the board, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It could have done with another couple of rounds of script polishing.

Err, that was your side my dude, like wtf?

How about, 'no'?

I am not renting my corporeal existence from a megacorporation. There is no way this is ever affordable to the masses without some pretty huge caveats

RIP Admiral Fitzwallace

John Amos as Admiral Fitzwallace in The West Wing

There are conspiracies after all, but they're just the usual 'capitalist assholes screw the rest of us over' kind rather than the 'three-assed aliens kidnapped me and forced me to watch naked while they fed pineapple on a pizza to my dog' kind.

He truly is the Holy Farter

Why propel spacecraft when we can dream big. Shift the whole planet! Muahaha.

Key Points

  • A rocket team reports the first successful detection of Earth’s ambipolar electric field: a weak, planet-wide electric field as fundamental as Earth’s gravity and magnetic fields.
  • First hypothesized more than 60 years ago, the ambipolar electric field is a key driver of the “polar wind,” a steady outflow of charged particles into space that occurs above Earth’s poles.
  • This electric field lifts charged particles in our upper atmosphere to greater heights than they would otherwise reach and may have shaped our planet’s evolution in ways yet to be explored.

Crashing has not been an issue on my deck. I'm 3 days shy of my 2 year anniversary with my steam deck. I can recall it crashing maybe 3 or 4 times, each of those linked to some custom game launcher and all in the default mode rather than desktop. For a while it used to hang when woken from sleep, but that hasn't happened in 6 months so I assume was fixed in an update.

I'm using desktop for emulation and games from GOG and Epic.
