Yes, I’ve unmounted an ISO image plenty of times. The button, in my opinion, isn’t that hard to find.

What’s weird is in the IDW comics, Data has become a severed head again as well.
I don’t agree. I’m pretty sure Virtualbox has its own weird kernel module instead of KVM.
In addition, I’m pretty sure the the Virt Manager GUI has most of those features and is in general pretty easy to use.
Virt Manager GUI is my preferred.
I’m a little sad. When I saw a time dilation plot, I was honestly expecting an unexpected romance to begin between Mariner and one of the other two (probably T’Lyn) - not like it fully develops, but like something weird to show up in the possible future we better get in the finale.
I wonder why there aren’t any construction firms called Shaka?…
I think B’Elanna’s not sure what to think of her “Barge of the Dead” experience and can’t tell if it was real or just some weird hallucination.
“I hope so” indicates that uncertainty.
Why does the phrase “humans with a silly hat” make me think of this meme:
Bearded Rutherford actually looks pretty sharp.
Also, I find it rather funny that the prewarp civilization kind of just looks like a bunch of bargain bin Andorians. I bet Mariner will say my words almost verbatim.
This isn’t quite Debian red - more of a mix of reddish pink and purple, which is common in Ubuntu backgrounds.
Despite the Debian logo being red, Debian has tended towards blue-ish backgrounds for several versions.
Sad to hear. I don’t know if it’s luck or something else.
I’ve been running Debian on btrfs on my laptop for 3 months without issue; I still use ext4 on my desktop, as I just went with defaults when I installed the operating system.
Based. I find Desert Moonrise kind of vile. I don’t hate painting, but the colors look too Ubuntu.
1: Agree, mostly. I bought a Thinkpad E16 for its Linux support, though I accidentally got a Realtek one that had few bugs that I’ve since ironed out. My only thought is if you own existing hardware that is still usable, it is worth your time at least trying.
2: I somewhat agree. On my note taking laptop, I go by this philosophy. On my desktop, though, I theme away and still get lots done.
3: I sort of agree with you; I think like you said, if you have one drive for each OS, you won’t have problems - dual booting is fine. I’ve got 2 internal drives in my Thinkpad, though honestly, I hardly use the Windows one. I remember 2 partitions being livable on my Surface Go, but again, I barely touched Windows, so I don’t think it had much chance to bork the bootloader.
4: I agree on the Arch and Gentoo part - after trying to use Debian Testing on several laptops, I found rolling release just isn’t conducive to a no-frills productivity device. Honestly, though, I don’t see that much problem with immutable, especially if you go with Flatpak. I also think any stable distro you like should work so long as it has a backports kernel - I’m using Debian 12 that way on an E16 and it’s been pretty smooth (besides the Realtek thing at the beginning, but I fixed that months ago).
5: Wholeheartedly disagree, mostly because XFCE was excluded. 😭 I feel like X11’s still not that far off the beaten path. This feeling will probably change when XFCE switches; 4.20 comes out with preliminary support in a few weeks, and my bet is 4.22 in 2026 will have full Wayland support.
6: I don’t totally agree with this either. I feel like when it works well natively, go for the native package. If you’re having trouble, switch to the Flatpak. I’ve actually had problems with the VSCodium Flatpak on my laptop not using system environment by default, though there is a fix.
A weird VCR board game called Star Trek: The Next Generation - A Klingon Challenge. Honestly, I feel like I’d heard of it before, but I was reminded of it in the annotations for “A Farewell to Farms” recently, as it is the origin for the quote, “Experience bij!”
On a funnier note, the character is not Gowron, but is the same actor for some reason.
Here’s a compilation of the camp in all its glory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjAvGNn20Y8
As well as a bit that compilation missed: https://youtu.be/3_739DxrMOs?t=3344
I wouldn’t call 4K mainstream in 2014 - I feel like it was still high end.
I didn’t have a 4K TV until early 2019 or so when unfortunately, the 1080p Samsung one got damaged during a move. Quite sad - it had very good color despite not having the newest tech, and we’d gotten it second-hand for free. Best of all, it was still a “dumb” TV.
Of course, my definition of mainstream is warped, as we were a bit behind the times - the living room had a CRT until 2012, and I’m almost positive all of the bedroom ones were still CRTs in 2014.
I felt that too and cried a little when he wasn’t in the IMDB
Thank you! My crappy TMBG meme is now showing up in my TMBG community!
Yeh. I think part of it is it’s just hard to match season 4. I think the series’ single funniest dialogue comes from “Trusted Sources”.
Ransom: “How much do bench?”
Magistrate: “We don’t do it for the numbers. We do it to quiet the voices in our heads!”
Ransom: “Cool. I bench 25.”
As a side effect, the i386 theme is fixed now.
Virt Manager does have snapshots as well.
As for the host system directory mounts, you got me there. There seems to be an option in the Virt Manager GUI, but it is kind of difficult to get working.
I’ve never used Virtualbox on Linux - it was what I used back when I was on Windows.
