Not being productive should not make you feel guilty. All of us need downtime, no exceptions.

She’s probably gotten used to the thick boots and pants. Plus, I vaguely remember her not wearing any sleeves, so I guess it evens out?

Also worth noting is that while the Avatar universe had its fair share of catastrophes, severe climate change wasn’t one of them, so I’d imagine Avatar world’s summer is nowhere near as hot as our current summer.

This project looks like it could come in handy in the future. Slightly off-topic question, though: How are these vacuuming robots if you have furry pets in the household? I’ve seen quite a few just give up after vacuuming a certain amount of hairs.

Hey, it’s an improvement at least. The crow is annoying, sure, but at least it’s only shouting this time. Remember when people found that their PC upgraded itself to Windows 10 when they were sleeping or out for lunch or whatever? That was fun.

Ah, so it’s just delayed for now, not outright banned, gotcha. Still funny though!

It’s basically a standardized format of a CV. Here’s what it looks like, or the first page of it, anyway: link.

I love the idea of everyone using the same format of CV, as opposed to everyone having to spend hours in Word trying to spruce up their own special personally styled CV. In theory it should be easier for employers too, because the CVs are all structured the same way, they are easier to parse. Moot point now, though.

Heavily. They want to keep their money, but there is no way in hell they actually need such ludicrous amounts. At this point the richest people on the planet are not unlike gold-hoarding dragons.

Oooh, geeky graphs about Linux. This piques my interest. GNOME is still a memory hog, I see. I never would’ve guessed KDE is an even bigger one, though.

Can I request just one more addition? Namely, XFCE, my desktop environment of choice.

I ain’t not noticed that.

I would say Thunderbird is great or meh depending on the context. On Linux, you have quite a few email clients to choose from and yes, Thunderbird isn’t the most feature-rich or resource efficient app out there.

On Windows, however, it’s a whole different story. Basically, you have the choice of: Thunderbird or Outlook. And trust me, you NEVER want to deal with Outlook. On Windows, I will take Thunderbird every. Single. Time.

Holy shit, they actually turned Korben Dallas into a meat popsicle.

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Quartz edition. Now with always online DRM and Ubisoft Quartz. Pre-order now!

Look, I’m a fan of the Sands of Time trilogy (Warrior Within less so, but that’s neither here nor there), but… it’s modern day Ubisoft. We’re talking about the same scummy company that ties every single one of their games to Uplay, is hellbent on including in-game stores in games that already cost full price, is pushing Quartz even though they haven’t a singular clue how that is beneficial to anyone.

So even when they do remake Sands of Time, are we seriously expecting this to be any less than a shitshow?

As far as I can tell, there is no software that integrates multiple chat protocols and email. However, if you’re okay with having a separate email application, you may want to have a look at a multi-protocol messaging client like Pidgin or whatever it is that KDE uses these days (used to be Kopete and Telepathy).

EDIT: Scratch that. Kopete and Telepathy don’t have Matrix support. Pidgin still has it, though.

This is beautiful. Please tell me there’s a distro out there that still has this localization!

The past few years have not been kind to Bioware: they’ve lost Mass Effect’s creator, Dragon Age’s writer, Mass Effect: Andromeda was critically panned and Anthem fared even worse.

The very existence of the company might hinge on Dreadwolf’s success. Because if it’s another flop, well… I think we all know what EA does to unsuccessful game studios.

Was the batter made of Gatorade?

Cautiously optimistic about this. An open world Sonic game where you can run, boost and grind wherever sounds pretty good! Then again, it’s Sonic, it could be a stinker. I swear, if I see princess Elise anywhere in this…

I wonder if anyone at Netflix actually thought this would go over well. If people wanted to jump through hoops, they would have joined the circus.

Aperture Laboratories looks like Google Picasa in disguise.
