Logistics is probably the wrong word, I don’t mean the actual physics of space combat, that never super mattered to me. As a kid that played a lot of X-wing so I probably imprinted some of that onto the movies. That game made it feel like a real space navy with an organization, ranks, squadrons, tactics, etc. that made more sense than the way the movies portrayed it.

I always disliked that the movies didn’t show more of the world-building, they definitely could feel shallow at times, but considering they were based on old Flash Gordon type serials I guess it makes sense.

Maryland does.

I find Jedi boring and have always been way more interested in the space fleet battles/logistics/tactics. As a kid I would watch RotJ and fast forward through the ground/throne room scenes just to watch the space battles. I still know exactly where all the scene cuts are.

We just switched to that same plan from an Xfinity Family Plan we were on with my sister and her family. Been happy so far.

The Long Dark with headphones in a dark room. Really makes you feel cold.

Elite Dangerous as well. My ship auto-docking while I look at my side screens and hear various radio chatter is awesome.

Don’t threaten me with a good time. :-)

Seriously though, we have friends there and have visited. We fell in love with all of it, from the culture to the landscape.

Not go to work and sleep for about a year before I figure out what I really want to do.

Edit: move to Finland first.

I believe it. We visited in late summer so didn’t see it. I don’t think I’d mind much myself but it’s all academic as I’ll never live there.

I love Iceland. Wish I could move there.

Just wanted to comment and say Lemmy baseball fan here! There are dozens of us, dozens! Also not in IT and I don’t use Linux but here I am. I feel like an imposter on Lemmy.

I managed to get a Steelcase chair off Craigslist for a great price and it has changed my home office life. I could sit in that chair 24/7 and still be comfortable. And they replaced a broken part for free even though I wasn’t the original buyer.

Yep, I backed the Kickstarter and hang out in their Discord. Wasn’t sure on the rules about promoting stuff like that so I didn’t mention it. :-)

Star Control 2: The Ur-Quan Masters

Always loved me some Mara Jade and Talon Karrde.

I’m a lurker. Vegetarian myself but my wife is vegan.

Yep, I have no idea how people are able to afford stuff like that! Some of our friends have these crazy hobbies and go out to eat all the time, multiple cruises a year, etc. Meanwhile a ‘date night’ for us is Chipotle and DVDs of whatever show we are watching that we borrowed from the Library. That is the only way we can afford our modest one side of a duplex. And I feel like I make ok money but I guess everyone we know just makes so much more, or we are just very strict with our budgeting and credit usage.

I charge by Bluetooth headphones ‘pod’ with my Steam Deck charger and it seems to be ok.

Iceland or Finland. Love both of those places, from the people to the landscape.

Surprised to see Grape so many times! The fake grape flavor of grape candy is my favorite!

Showed it to my wife who is a big classic MM fan and she was like ‘niiice’
