Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes ranks number one for me; the original story with updated control scheme and graphics is awesome. Then it’s a toss up between 2 and V. 2 is a solid game in the same mould as the first, but V allows me to Fulton extract unsuspecting enemies which is a genius mechanic that allows me an immense range of fuckery.

That may well be the thing I’m looking for, thanks for the pointer!

You don’t understand because I didn’t state why 😅 I have enough time and energy to set up and manage containerised applications. 20 years ago I might have had the drive to set up a local dev version, manage the dependencies and set up local init scripts, but not anymore.

KDE Connect is a great idea, thanks!

My absolute favourite controller of all time. No contest.

Bonus points if you can get them to preserve all the NSFW mods as well.

I’d say it’s time to push the argument that the Library of Congress needs to be preserving games as part of the cultural history of the USA. If the legislative branch won’t abide private efforts then it’s time to make the government do it.

Let’s not be too hasty to call it garbage when it could in fact turn out to be rancid dog shit.

Hey Peter Man! Check out Channel 9! Hobbit foot exams!

BTRFS, wasn’t that Dennis Rader 🤔

First episode, a fearful fate for Worf as Alexander comes to visit! 😱

Oh I’d love some non-canon, Treehouse of Horror-style Trek shorts.

This is what I needed to see today. Thank you

Why propel spacecraft when we can dream big. Shift the whole planet! Muahaha.

Key Points

• A rocket team reports the first successful detection of Earth’s ambipolar electric field: a weak, planet-wide electric field as fundamental as Earth’s gravity and magnetic fields.
• First hypothesized more than 60 years ago, the ambipolar electric field is a key driver of the “polar wind,” a steady outflow of charged particles into space that occurs above Earth’s poles.
• This electric field lifts charged particles in our upper atmosphere to greater heights than they would otherwise reach and may have shaped our planet’s evolution in ways yet to be explored.

Is it a nice cabinet? I like a good walnut cabinet with at least 2 shelves.

As an aside, the ‘ever trustworthy’ Google AI suggests, ‘completely ionizing a human body would require an energy output similar to a very small nuclear explosion’.

Disclaimer: I have nothing more than a secondary education level of physics and a keen interest in physics in general.

It’s common scientific belief that all physical forces are backed up by a field, for example, magnetism by the electromagnetic field, gravity by a gravity field. It would follow that the strong and weak nuclear forces also have corresponding fields.

For a disruptor to work as seen in fiction, you’d probably be looking to disrupt the weak nuclear force, and would need a mechanism to locally change the properties of the corresponding weak nuclear field.

I don’t know if there is such a mechanism available to us currently. Hopefully someone else has a definitive answer.

Roses are red, violets are blue. I love you as much As Jean Luc loves Q.

Now get off my bridge!
