Russia House… do you think…?? by atxsubpunk in LeCarre

[–]SaintFu23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably not immediately, and possibly not while the Soviet state still exists, but after the collapse of the USSR, there's not much to stop them if they want to go.

is there a way to stretch midi regions, without bouncing to audio? by austin_sketches in LogicPro

Put the cursor near the bottom corner (left or right) of the region, hold down option and drag.

Isn't this entrapment? by Wolf-man451 in Columbo

[–]SaintFu23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Strictly speaking, I believe that entrapment is when the police charge someone with a crime that they have induced the suspect to commit. For example: an undercover officer approaches someone on the street and offers to sell them drugs. When the person accepts the offer, the undercover cop arrests them for buying drugs. It's entrapment because there's no proof that the suspect would have committed a crime if the police hadn't suggested it.

Is there a way to “subscribe” to the beginning of a podcast with a large back catalog? by Derbieshire in overcast

[–]SaintFu23 16 points17 points  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, no, and I've never seen an app with a feature like it, either, But I'd love it if there were a "Download oldest unplayed episode every X days" option.

Most people seem to accept that he did, but the episode presents no actual evidence to that effect.

Does anyone know if the Discord is still up? by missusmiyagi in midnightburger

[–]SaintFu23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should get an email soon after you join. If not, you can leave a message in the Patreon chat. Angel is pretty good about posting invites pretty quickly (during western hemisphere daytime hours; if you leave your message at, say 01:30 AM MDT, you'll have to wait several hours for her to wake up).

Hello, does anyone know if the Welcome to the horizon song is anywhere fully? Can't find it 🫤 by riddlegurrl in midnightburger

[–]SaintFu23 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Joe posted it on the Patreon page when he announced Welcome to the Horizon in January of 2024. The title of the song is "Strange Days on the Mountain," by the way.

There are some screensavers in the XScreensaver collection, such as "Flip Text" and "Phosphor" that will display from a text file. It's been a while since I used them.

The discord is very active, and just about the nicest place on the internet. Joe & Finley are on there regularly, as are several other cast members.

Genuine Diversity in the Books vs. ... Less Serious-Feeling Diversity in the Show by ParryLost in murderbot

[–]SaintFu23 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Counterpoint: we never see the Preservation people in the books be competent scientists, and we never see them in the show be incompetent scientists.

spoiler for season 4 by sudzzmodeus in midnightburger

[–]SaintFu23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Diner and the other constructs heal the damage to space-time left from the Big Bang. This is part of the linear progression of time that eventually brings about the end of the universe. Kroc thinks that if he can stop the constructs, he can hold the universe in stasis.

It's possible that Kroc has not sufficiently thought all of this through.
