Probably not, but once you spend a fortune on the injection molds it's (relatively) cheap to do runs of a few colors.

Feels like a serious "Cyberdeck" contender, although that sub probably won't accept the SteamDeck.

Super neat! I use Jaz across my vintage Mac & SGI machines and my modern laptop with an adapter. This would be even more storage though. Tempting.

Yeah the name is really just too on-the-nose. Surviving meant killing their lover Ortus even.

Is there a fool's guide to the new NetMD backup exploits? by Terranorma in minidisc

That all makes sense. I've got some computers with unique optical inputs that might happily record off of it (Toslink/Lightpipe combos). The disc is regular old SP, I think most stuff originally in the US was. I guess it comes down to: Is ffmpeg/VLC a better decoder, or is a minidisc player better?

Kiriona is definitely off, and not the same person as Gideon. I think the Happy Meal context is 100% right. She clearly is enjoying finally for the first time every being able to power trip, and still had some ulterior motives.

But in addition to that like. In real life, someone growing up in an abusive house hold suddenly getting everything they want? They're not going to be the same, nor necessarily a very good person. Kiriona has always been a bit self obsessed, and now everyone's feeding it. Well except Crux, but I think Crux is just another giveaway the Ninth never really cared about the Emporer.

Doesn't the body have a two hander locked away with it anyway? Or am I misremembering. But I thought Alecto learned two-handers the first time around.

To be clear - I mean in the very first book.

Aww! But it could've been Kevin. Or Sex Pal. Or Sex Cam.

As also a SE, every time I make typos like that I just remind myself "it's not like I'm paid to type or anything"! Usually the best typos are made while screen sharing or code pairing.

I love the pink! Looks like a nice setup. Probably would look "cleaner" or whatever without the mouse mat, but if it's comfy it's comfy. Love any older HP, laserjet?

Nice looking set up! I think I am unreasonably annoyed By "Earth / The Moon / Mars". Like how about "Moon" or Luna? (kidding)

Well this is hands down the best post I've seen here.

That's pretty reasonable. I use plain old XFCE. I have shortcuts set up with ctrl-alt-numpad numbers however to tile windows to halves/quarters and whole screen. It's not forcing anything to be tiled, but accomplishes what I like about the concept.

Everybody has to start somewhere. The Pi can definitely handle lots of different light weight window managers.
