Not only did it spawn multiple spin-offs, sg1 was the longest running sci-fi series

Honestly… even before the meltdown, content was mostly crap.

For kbin/lemmy to be useful; it needs to be its own thing. Emulating crap is just crappier crap.

the only content on reddit is bots reposting shit… and Spez playing the sad trombone.

wait… you can do that?
Can I learn this power?! how does one learn this power?

next, you’ll tell people the door close button in elevators doesn’t actually work.

macgyver always carried a few slices… in case he needed an industrial sealant…

you have to understand, my dad’s a unix sysops guy. it was quite a lot of spare parts… (mostly machines older than my 486, which was also hand-me-down.)

Also, that imagery might be closer to reality…foam sword and all.

Hehe, that might actually have been more of the Uncle’s influence.

He’s the one that started me on the science fiction addiction- when I got into his (then-complete) collection on VHS. I found them and started. Binge watching them. Got to Trouble With tribbles when I was found out- and then it was my Uncle who was like “oh! That’s my favorite. Rewind it while I go make popcorn!”

my first beowolf cluster, I built because I wanted to improve my pentium 486’s chances at doing well in some random FOSS benchmark (PiMark? it calculated pi… and you could ‘donate’ cpu runtime to help calculate more digits of pi.) It was cobbled out of my dad’s spare part’s rack.
Should have seen my dad’s face when he realied why i built the beowolf… “You mean… you did this. FOR PI??”(“Okay, that’s actually cool.”)

First video game I remember playing? Short Order on NES (with the pad.) That was followed shortly by monopoly- also NES.

First game I beat? was dad’s copy of Zelda (NES,) Which… I wasn’t supposed to be playing. I got caught when I saw my dad was struggling with the water temple.
“Dad…dad DAD. you go here. get that. Do this. And then do this that and this.”
“Oh. Cool. wait. how do you know this?”
“Oh i beat it last week.”
<awkward pause>
“you better pay attention. that’s the boss.”
“We’re not telling mom about this.”

BDSM parlor.

context is important. in a waiting area or lounge, they should be okay with it- especially if it’s the kind of place you’ll be waiting for hours.

visiting your inlaws? people are weird.

But yea dating just sucks in general. Fuck that.

I’ve had so many people telling me horror stories from internet dating that I’ve just stayed away. Ironically, I’ve had at least one relationship that while it ended… (lets just say it ran it’s course,) it wasn’t horrible. We kind of fell into it, though, as friends then more.

The current relationship started more intentionally so- but it still started as “I like you as a friend, maybe more, lets see where it goes,” kind of thing.

Well fast forward a week, I keep texting her to set something up, but she’s not responding. I think she’s ghosted me. I mean, that’s fine, but if you don’t want to date me anymore, then just let me know. I will respect your decision.

well… about that. it might not be, but it also might just be that’s her general way of breaking things off. There’s a truly shocking number of guys that don’t respond well to rejection and get all crazy. It may not be a you-thing, just a past experiences thing. She has no way of knowing, really, how you will behave until it happens.
