  Ghost is open source. You can selfhost. It’s just that aggressively advertising their (paid) hosting services on the official website

  The implication beeping that the US is not. Because in a lot of other countries surprise clauses in your T&C’s is illegal

  If you don’t want to do that, then you can buy a bootable drive (for example here: www.shoplinuxonline.com/mint21-usb.html)

  Using a different tool to create a bootable drive is just a part of installing any operating system, not just Windows. If you ever need to install windows on a pc that doesn’t have it installed you will see the same process.

  Luckily they don’t have to switch. Your good friends from the European union have a solution for you (And the latest beta for whatsapp features the skeleton for their implementation of that standard)

  And that’s totally fine. You do you. But

  1. Why do those who like cities have to live in a car-centric hellscape
  2. More people on bikes makes cities more bareble even for people who for some reason like driving because more bikes = less traffic jams and less noise
  3. Why does biking automatically mean big city. Small cities are in theory even better for that since they tend to be more compact. Stuff is less spread out even if the relative density is lower.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unity adding a fee for devs for each time a game is installed, after certain thresholds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
  1. You can actually import assets from unity into godot using a 3rd party add-on (If the assets license allows is)
  2. Godot has C# scripting
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else out there who actually really loved Discovery's S1 style of Klingons?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  There is Doctor Who, and that’s it.

  Actually, DW is a good example, because the continuity of that show is a mess, and very intentionally so. That show thrives in its inconsistencies. There are three different explanations for why the Doctor can change faces when he dies, for example. And each one contradicts the others. There is also no beta canon, every tie in is considered canon. So the doctor has officially met Batman, Gandalf and Picard. That’s canon.

  In the end IP is a playground and continuity should enhance story. Nobody gains anything from lore for the sense of lore. What does the Klingons always looking a certain way say? Not all that much. It’s a nice to have, because it allows you to recognise them quickly and make connections. But if the look is constricting for the creative team, then they should be able to change it.

  Firefox for android also is also the only big name browser on that platform supporting add-ons

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can anyone recommend a NuTrek viewing order? Or does it not really matter?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It doesn’t really matter all that much since the shows are spread all over the timeline. There is one exception though: Strange New Worlds is a direct spinoff of Discovery. So you should watch that first. (It’s also the show that takes the longest to figure itself out, maybe with the exception of Picard, so it for the most part only goes up from there)

  Oh, according to the entertainment weekly article Tawny absolutely demanded a scene with Uhura (or at least pitched it to the writers)
