This is… Requiem.

The live action Super Mario Bros movie.

I know it doesn't meet the "post 2000's" rule, but I saw it for the first time a couple years ago, so I think it still counts. I don't think it was a very good Mario movie since it took A LOT of creative liberties with the source material (tbf, there wasn't a lot to work with in 1993), but as its own thing, I enjoyed it for what it was. Definitely expected a lot worse when going into it.

55 inch 4K Scepter TV + Saiyin soundbar and subwoofer. I bought this setup about a month ago for less than $400 and it's been pretty good so far

First thing that comes to mind is RocketJump's video Milk Man: World's Worst Superhero. Essentially, his power is drinking and regurgitating milk. While this sounds lame, he actually manages to disarm and incapacitate the robber, fly, and give the distressed citizen a nice, refreshing beverage. Sounds pretty useful to me.

Now, only one question remains: Got Milk?

Rookie mistake. Smh.

I used to dual boot Linux & Windows, but these days, gaming on Linux works just fine. Granted, I don't play any hardcore multiplayer games that might have iffy anticheat or anything, but even modern games work with little to no issue.

Speech recognition. Being able to tell your computer what to do, and it actually does it, just feels like something straight out of SciFi. It is a shame that Alexa, Google Assistant, etc. ended up being such privacy nightmares, but hopefully projects like Rhasspy can help change that.

I'd like to use rootless podman, but since I include zerotier in my containers, they need access to the tunnel device and net_admin, so rootless isn't an option right now.

Podman-compose works for me. I'd like to learn how to use Ansible and Kubernetes, but right now, it's just my Lemmy VPS and my Raspberry Pi 4, so I don't have much need for automation at the moment. Maybe some day.

Oh, thanks for explaining. That ending was pretty confusing, but I think I understand it now.

I use Tiddlywiki. I've been liking it so far.

Gotta admire the consistency.

 

I know politics can be a very contentious topic, so why don't we try and lighten the mood a bit?

 

The new word won't use any of the letter you've already ruled out (so if you guess "doors", for example, the new word won't have d, o, r, or s).

I know this isn't exactly a new game, but I thought I'd share it because it is, as the name implies, absurd.

 

For me, it'd probably be teleportation. The possibilities with teleportation are basically limitless.

  • Building's on fire? Teleport in, grab the people inside, and teleport out. Easy.
  • Getting your butt kicked by a supervillain? Teleport to a gun shop, grab some weapons, and teleport back for round 2.
    • Alternatively, just grab your opponent, teleport in front of a moving train or something, let go of your opponent, and teleport away.
  • Need to defuse a bomb? No need! Just teleport the bomb to the middle of the desert. Never worry about cutting the wrong wire again!
  • Want to go to a Taylor Swift concert, but you overslept? You guessed it: just teleport! You don't even need to buy a ticket!

Admittedly, stopping time is another very useful power, but teleportation is just really hard to beat. What say you?

 

Whether it be video, board, card, etc., what are your favorite games to play with large groups of friends?

You can't go wrong with classics like Smash Bros., Mario Party, and Jackbox. I also enjoy a good game of Codenames. What are some of your suggestions?
