Hell yeah, congrats! I get back into DCSS every few years but I have only escaped with the orb once, a lucky MiFi run. Just getting there is huge!

themoken@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•As an older torrent gen, I tried Debrid for the first time.English7·9 days agoI use private trackers exclusively for content I want to “own” or want in the highest possible quality. Stremio/RD is great though for my wife to be able to search new media and potentially stream in okay quality without fucking with sonarr. Or popular TV you’re maybe not sold on but would try an episode. Or for old SD content, like tossing on a 90s show for a few episodes. To be honest, I live in a world of ad block and Stremio is sometimes the only way I even know something is out…
Anyway, they complement each other well.
themoken@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Amy Coney Barrett joins liberals to defy Trump—again13·9 days agoYep. If they somehow were left with only cis white men, they’d redefine cis, white, or man to divide the remaining people.
themoken@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•California to negotiate trade with other countries to bypass Trump tariffs91·13 days agoLast I checked, Texas was literally the only red state that actually paid more into the federal government than it took out. The cold snap was just the usual idiocy, but it’s not like it couldn’t be handled, the state just stopped caring about weather proofing infrastructure.
And with the amount of natural resources and basically year round agriculture that happens in Texas, I have no doubt it could be self sufficient to some definition. I almost wish they would secede and tank the current electoral landscape. As long as I can move out first.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What did Cory Booker 25-Hour speech actually achieve in terms of change?6·13 days agoYeah, I’ll be honest I’m pretty tuned out on the Dems, but the first time I heard about this was an unwanted donation solicitation that started like “I just got off the senate floor…” and it made it feel so transparent that right now, it’s performative bullshit.
Could be the start of something, but it won’t be until the Dems prove they’re effective at something other than fundraising to lose elections.
themoken@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•'Ominous signs': Legal expert says John Roberts showed he'll 'reverse precedent' for Trump17·1 month agoBeen listening to the 5-4 podcast about how much the Supreme Court sucks and it’s been partisan bullshit forever, but yeah Citizens United will probably be considered the death of American Democracy (even though it was terminally ill beforehand).
The Court will literally just make up rules out of thin air to justify whatever the fuck they want.
themoken@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•The Supreme Court has a new playbook — and Democrats need to adapt before it's too late18·1 month agoWhat are you going to criticize Republicans for? Sure, they’re morally bankrupt and destroying the country, but they’re doing exactly what their dipshit voters asked for and succeeding beyond their wildest dreams.
Democrats are the ones who are being laughably inept at what they claim to want.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Games@sh.itjust.works•What's your favorite FPS weapon?English16·1 month agoFlak cannon all the way, but I spent many days in high school instagibbing my friends so the shock rifle does hold a special place in my heart.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•The best streaming service :)English3·1 month agoCertain ones, like music trackers, can still be interviewed into. Once you get into an initial tracker and establish yourself, it becomes easier to find / get into new ones via forum invites. It’s a long road but barring a time machine it’s the easiest way.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•The best streaming service :)English4·1 month agoI dunno, maybe I just had crappy indexers but usenet was always more miss than hit for me. Maybe it’s superior to public torrents but private trackers are the gold standard.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Games@sh.itjust.works•New Civilization 7 update adds a confusing Natural Wonder plus tweaks to the UI, AI and Age mechanicsEnglish7·1 month agoThe way the first paragraph is written made me think this is a garbage AI article, but I guess it was a joke. I hate this future.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Games@sh.itjust.works•Was Avowed a Success? - Laura FryerEnglish21·1 month agoI’m with you, I’m having a blast, but I think the reactions are because of the idea that it would be a Skyrim type game and… It’s not really even trying to be that. Like you said, it’s an ARPG, the roleplaying is basically just dialogue and most of the game is really well done exploration and combat.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Whats the most inappropriate boner you've ever had?33·2 months agoIn my experience that’s a very appropriate boner.
I was sort of with you on the ocean stuff, swimming there isn’t really a substitute for a lifejacket, but swimming being for the privileged is a weird take.
If you don’t have access to a body of water for free, then public pools are usually cheaper than a movie ticket. You don’t need any equipment, all you need is one person that kinda half way knows how to swim and is willing to point you in the right direction.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the largest Lego set you've ever built and would you do it again?3·2 months agoMy kid bought me a Back to the Future DeLorean for my birthday, about 2000 pieces.
Initially I thought it was kind of a mis-gift, something they would enjoy more than me since I hadn’t built a set since they were small and needed my help, but I made it a point to crack it open instead of letting it sit and it turned out to be quite enjoyable.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Linux@lemmy.ml•After many years on GNOME, I finally switched to Plasma.11·3 months agoGNOME 3 introduced the current shell paradigm where you don’t really have a start menu but a variety of searches, integrated indicators, per-app desktops with a dock etc.
Before, it was far more conventional experience like Plasma/Windows/Cinnamon are now. GNOME 2 was forked to be the MATE desktop if you want to check it out.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Games@sh.itjust.works•Some 20 hours in, I can say that Civilization 7's age transitions are the series' most radical and disruptive mechanic yetEnglish9·3 months agoYeah, I was watching Potato McWhiskey and this is his take. They have metrics that show most people don’t actually finish a game and that indicates a pretty big flaw in game design.
One interesting thing the devs brought up was the ability to pivot from one civ to another based on new information. Like if you discover your continent is mostly plains and horses, then maybe your next iteration looks more like the Mongols, with bonuses to cavalry. If your early conquest didn’t go off, maybe you pivot to a more science or culture oriented civ.
I don’t hate these ideas, it just depends on how it actually feels in game.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are you surprised that people pay for, when there are free alternatives in existence?211·3 months agoI default to piracy too, but I’m guessing you don’t listen to a lot of new music. The thing a music service offers isn’t just access, it’s discoverability. It didn’t replace my FLAC collection, it expanded it. What it replaced was listening to the radio to find new stuff.
For video I’m more with you. I’m happy to rely on word of mouth. Especially since the streaming services drop movies all the time and discriminate against watching in a browser. Getting a good rip means you can watch it anywhere, anytime, and not have to worry about it disappearing.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Linux@lemmy.ml•I cannot enable `HAVE_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE` - Kernel compile1·3 months agoBasically just start with what you’re aiming to enable and work backwards (as you’ve started to do). With judicious use of grep find out where that symbol is defined. If it’s in arch configs for other arches but not your own, it’s probably that.
There may be better tools out there to do this, but in my experience just sleuthing it out a bit will answer your question. The Kconfig system can be complex, but the files are pretty readable.
Raised by Wolves had a great intro theme and art style.
I would list the great Star Trek opening themes, but honestly they are long and can be a bit much when you’re on your like eighth episode in a row.
