This year I discovered Norm Macdonald and I think he's now my favourite.

Theo Vonn is also hilarious, not so much his stand up but in podcasts and general conversation.

Bill Burr is great too.

Not always, I have one with an amd chipset that I can't get Linux on (last time I checked).

You have to open them up and remove a screw then install different firmware.

The dell Chromebook 11 I got from eBay for under £20 was easy to get it working on though.

OpenSuse leap

Org mode changed my fucking life! I looked into using emacs as a simple markdown editor when I was doing a creative writing course and discovered org mode. 4 years later and I never leave emacs, everything is done through emacs and org mode. I even use it as my window manager (exwm). I bought an old chromebook to turn into an emacs machine and it's so good. It's an operating system and I don't like using a computer without it.

Some things for you to look into that I now can't live without:

Elfeed

Org-capture and capture templates

Dired

EXWM

Syncthing (not a part of emacs but means I don't have to use closed source cloud backups)

I passionately love emacs. At first I thought all they shortcuts and keybindings were a bit insane but they are second nature to me at this point. Emacs has also saved me lots of money that I would have spent on silly writing apps and aids.

Yeah, but quite often you get to see them wash it all off.

I only downvote hateful stuff or obvious bots and spam. The same as I do on anything with upvotes and downvotes.

Thanks, I should know that, I've seen every episode!

In a kind of sad way he does have a happy ending. I just don't want it to happen to him. Poor old Pike!

I'm constantly trying out all the ones I can find but so far connect is the only one where I can customise the colours. I love me a sepia theme!

Luckily it's also great in other ways.

A very TOS episode that I thoroughly enjoyed!

Can we let La'an have a few happy moments in this season? That woman must be riddled with PTSD by now.

It was great to finally get Pike back! Has he ever told his girlfriend that he's almost certainly going to be disabled? What a pickle he's in. I think if I were in his shoes I would have let the relationship end. The guilt must be driving him insane.

I feel like they might be messing around with the timelines so that they can save Pike from his horrendous fate and just say it's an alternate timeline compared to TOS. Normally I'd be against that, but it's Pike and I love him so much that I almost want them to do it.

No way! Opensuse has always been perfect for me, I do usually use leap though.

Wefwef is pretty good

Eternal darkness for the GameCube could be so good with a proper remaster.

The original Quake but the asthetic needs to be identical and NIN should actually do the soundtrack.

Deus Ex would be great, it was so ahead of its time.
