The bridge crew of the Dauntless/Voyager A would like a word.

(Just pretend Ascensia’s not there)

Weird. It must be that my taste is very indie/alternative. You can always also check if the artist has their own shop.

That’s how Jonathan Coulton does it. They Might Be Giants does it as well (in addition to a Bandcamp), but most of their stuff from 1990-1996 is stuck on their former label, so they can’t sell DRM-free audio, only vinyl and/or cassette.

I got midway through season 4 of Disco, though I plan on finishing eventually. I think season 3 had its ups and downs, but the setting it introduced could have been really interesting. I was just underwhelmed by what they were doing in season 4 instead of the natural plot threads the 32nd century opened.

I agree on SNW, and LD and PRO have earned a special place in my heart.

Let’s transporter clone, Genesis planet, Black Mountain etcetera George Samuel so he can live past 2267.

Though typically partially bleeped, but yes.

Do you have FluidSynth installed? I had similar issues recently - I just have a script that restarts pipewire automatically on login.

You must be quite behind on Trek. They sort of just gave up on Kelvin and returned to the prime timeline with Star Trek: Discovery back in 2017. They eventually canonized that the Kelvin timeline is just an alternate reality existing in parallel to the main timeline.

I recently found hidden in my CD collection a copy of the soundtrack to The Tune.

PS5 controller also works.

And then there’s an entire universe of memes just from the episode where Dal and Janeway bodyswap - already seen several.

An xkcd classic - didn’t even need to look at it. That’s a good reminder.

Yes! Finally! Someone else doing some Prodigy memes, especially crazy Wesley ones. Here’s some of mine (previously exclusive to c/risa):

(Note that last panel is meant to convey my excitement at Wesley’s reappearance.)

And another Prodigy meme, conveying what I love about Trek:

This is in the first 50 Google Image Search results for “DS9 meme”.

A classic, but one I’ve seen before.

I booted Buildroot with kernel 5.17 on a Pentium II laptop off a CD I burned once - I needed to dump a drive once and that was the only hardware I had on hand that could dump 2.5” IDE drives and had a working CD drive so I could boot something other than the operating system installed on the drive:

Honestly, I rather like the default XFCE terminal. In fact, I was using it even before I used XFCE back when I was just playing with the default GNOME in VMs before I daily-drove Linux.

Unless we go for the SNW retcon/Temporal Cold War shenanigans, in which case we still have a chance.

I have a pair of socks and pants with this on it.

Why does that look like Alexander Rozhenko but middle aged and with a drinking problem spurred by his traumatic childhood?

Is this xfce-winxp-tc? I ‘ve played with it before and it’s awesome.

However, I don’t use it because while the XP start menu replica is cool, I need a Win7-style search bar, and Whiskermenu sticks pit like a sore thumb here.

I think a 7 replica would be awesome, but I think some parts of Aero can only truly be replicated with a new WM and DE, such as the color changes in the taskbar for different applications. Many themes just fall short - proportions and effects are slightly off and such.

I think the main other distro I used in that VM at that time was Fedora 37 at that time, which should have also been using Wayland. I had made the VMs because I was working on Debian packaging for an application I liked and wanted to make sure the modifications I made didn’t break it on other distros.

I’m not necessarily a “Wayland is the embodiment of evil” kind of guy, but I love XFCE and pretty much won’t leave it unless it dies, meaning I’m on Xorg until they port XFWM4.
