I had a similar network appliance "nest". I got a rolling kitchen island from IKEA because it has shelves that encourage ventilation and it also fit my printer, UPC, and HTPC/server. Now I have one network appliance cart. Everything is always a few inches off of the floor. All the cords are contained and tied off where necessary to keep the cart's contents from spilling out in the way. When it's time to clean around it, it can be wheeled away from the wall or corner. The only cords still connected to the wall are one for power and one for Internet. I can even disconnect it entirely from the wall briefly without too much fuss, just a short time without internet but with the wifi intact.

The cart would be overkill in your case, but the idea of it would still have value. You could probably fit everything you've got into an empty milk crate. That crate could be on wheels and most crates are pretty well ventilated.

Same. I'm just hoping it doesn't turn out like the cute frog photos.

No, not against just him, against the entire party supporting him.

They're almost certainly talking about the TNG episode "Pen Pals" where data makes friends with a little girl whose planet is dying.

Mostmaps people use to make some point, especially some political point, turn out to just be population density maps.

Yeah, dividing a circle into 360 parts, then subdividing those by 60, and further subdividing those by 60 makes so much more sense than just using ratio of a number fundamental to circles themselves.

[-] Wolf314159@startrek.website 6 points 7 months ago

Because it's a unit circle.

Where should the industry go?

Maybe focus more on developing good games that are more than just good graphics. A shit game will still be a shit game at 4k and 120fps. A good game doesn't necessarily need all that to be good. Game developers seem to have lost sight of doing more with less.

The industry has corrupted the mindset of their consumer base with this capitalist driven myth that you need to buy more stuff to be happy. The kids out there trolling about shit graphics and the PCMRs complaining about the lower console specs are gobbling it up. Now that one company is seeing diminishing returns, they're considering pulling back on that growth mantra. Maybe they'll start encouraging game development that doesn't waste so many computing resources for schlocky derivative lazy content. I'm sure they'll find some other way to convince us that in order to keep gaming, we'll need to keep buying.

Henry Crabgrass would like a word... Critical Role, Ashley Johnson dressed as Henry Crabgrass, an NPC from Campaign 2.

I don't know what you're talking about man. My favorite sexy photos are ones where it's obvious the lady FEELS sexy. If it takes some sexy lingerie and moody lighting, then so be it. If it looks like she's enjoying the pose, then I'm into it. I can see boobs anywhere. I want to see her joy, her pleasure. That's hot. Oddly not the ones where the girl "knows" she's hot, those are different somehow. Don't ask me to elaborate. Raw naughty un-dressed up sexy bits are fun too, if she looks like she's having fun. I just don't need her joy to be directly related to me in order to value it. I don't care if she took it for me. She shared it with me, that's enough.

Just watched this episode again. Riker is absolutely awful at cooking scrambled eggs. Even if he had used perfect free range organic Earth chicken eggs, those looked dry, burnt, and chewy.

That's exactly why repairing any old Honda or Toyota hatchback will be easier than repairing an e-bike.
