That's how it used to be. You asked questions to people who were believed to be wise, and then their answer was what the truth was. And most of the things we "knew" were just wrong.

Not that it's less complicated now...

If you're looking for anti-neuclear skeptics and fear mongering, I don't think this is any more the place than reddit was. I hope rather than seeking out those echo chambers you look into this a bit more. I don't have any good stuff to link you too off the top of my head, but maybe someone else in the comments will

I've actually never played any Star Trek games before - I think the closest I've gotten is Stellaris, which definitely made me think of star trek. I don't know if that disqualifies me, but I might pick this game up anyways, sounds like a good time right now.

This concept actually makes me want to have AI take my job

My c++ is pretty rusty, but I hopped through the changelogs. I think this is the source for it here https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/toolkit/components/antitracking/URLQueryStringStripper.cpp

X with serifs, but only on the right side

I agree with what other people have said about using the command line more and the gui less, that will make you have to learn about utils like find, grep, sed, and maybe awk.

Try learning vim (or emacs). Use some command like tools for stuff you'd do in the gui. Try some basic scripting for common tasks. Maybe write some short python/ruby scripts if you need them. I've found that writing code has given me a need for learning more about how the command line works, and other "power user" features.

Have you ever noticed how your stuff is stuff, and other people's stuff is shit?

I still have my Eee 901 sitting around with my collection of old tech. It actually booted up a couple years ago when I last checked it! Used the crap out of it back in college for computer science classes, since all I really needed was a terminal.

In a similar vein, I've been rewatching TNG and find myself thinking that they really should have put a cctv camera in engineering. Could have saved them a lot of trouble.

He's the sweetest cat (and converted me to a cat lover). Someone actually gave him up, but now he has a great home.
