  • Somewhat felt this with RoboCop - it’s referenced quite a bit in discussions but to me, the plot felt incredibly thin and I’m surprised it hasn’t been criticised more for this.

    To me, it came down to cop gets brutally executed, revived by a dystopian tech company as a robot following commands, it starts remembering who it was in its prior life and swears revenge against its murderers, all the while he falls in love with his partner cop despite having a wife in his previous life who moved on after his death.

    I get the dystopian undertones of it, but it all just felt incredibly cheesy to me.




  • I thought I’d step out of my Debian/Arch comfort zone by installing OpenSUSE on an Intel MacBook - Tumbleweed has trouble working with the Broadcom wireless adapter, and Leap straight up kernel panics because it can’t find root on boot.

    It’s been actually educational and almost nostalgic in that it makes me feel like a total Linux noob again as I try to navigate zypper and YaST.

    Once I get it working this meme will feel extremely relatable.


  • I know this is said in hindsight, but the way the first paragraph is written sets off alarm bells of weird reporting, and I imagine probably was what triggered you to look into it further.

    ASUS plans to produce RAM amid shortage problems, hoping to ease the rising costs of laptops and gaming PCs.

    While I get that Asus naturally would want to be competitive, why would they (from an economic standpoint) care about ‘easing the rising costs’ of their products. They would have actual motives like trying to be independent of these major memory manufacturers.

    Reports say the company is preparing to manufacture DDR5 memory by 2026.

    2026 is in less than 5 days. If this instead said “by the end of 2026” or longer I’d have a better time believing that claim.
