I’m unsure personally, but a lot of the blame definitely falls at the feet of Chibnall. I hope that when i watch the newer stuff I’ll be more impressed.
Just passin’ through

I grew up watching New Who. I never got into Classic Who. Part of it is just that you love the characters and eventually learn to accept that the universe is big and wacky shit happens. The Doctor usually has an idea of whats going on, and that’s all you really need. Imo the audience is like an auxiliary companion; we’re along for the ride and learning wtf is going on just like whoever’s with the Doctor. Our minds can’t always comprehend what’s going on, but thats okay. We’ll figure out a way through and sometimes even save the day ourselves. And at the end of it all we might be a little closer to the Doctor than a normal person, and we can use that to save the world when the Doctor is off saving another one.
ETA: Also the Doctor is a wonderful character. I love everything except the Chibnall era because no one there understood the Doctor. I really really wish we had someone else as the first female doctor because I think it could’ve been great but instead we got someone who gave more ammunition to the sexists. The Doctor’s character has so much depth and mystery and demonstrates an ideal of humanity in the same way Star Trek does. I think one of the best examples of this is in the 50th anniversary special with the Doctor’s monologue at the end with the two boxes. I’m paraphrasing, but, “at the end of the day all wars end with what people should’ve done from the beginning: talk. If people just sat down and talked it out all could be resolved without a single drop of blood. The war you fight will only invite someone to fight another war against you.” I’m horribly butchering it but it’s a really beautiful speech. It’s not a perfect response to all injustice but nothing ever will be. Eventually we just have to stop and move forward if we ever want to see a brighter future.
Well they all live at different depths and do occasionally fight/ally when they’re at the same depth…
I’ve spoken with a colleague who’s more experienced with physical networking (my work is mostly cloud based) and it seems the issue is that i have a dumb switch in-between my server and my managed router/switch so nothing is crossing VLANs properly. We figured this out because I did a packet capture on my network and did two DNS queries, one from my machine on my VPN network to the DNS server and one from the docker container to the DNS server. Both sent the same query except my machine got a response and the container did not. I am a bit skeptical that it’s purely a VLAN issue, but this DNS server hasn’t had any other issues with other subnets that aren’t dealing with VLANs so when you’ve eliminated the impossible all that remains is the improbable.
nah but you don’t see that being asked of white people that often. and when it is it’s often framed) asked differently.
yeah, I’m pretty radically left as it is but I’ve seen a few tankie posts and boy are those threads to stay away from.
The bass is a great instrument as it’s easy to pick up and be able to use decently but it also has a super high skill ceiling.
This one resonates with me a lot. I go with the flow for almost everything and while it’s unpredictable and chaotic at times, i’m often much better for it. I’m attuned to myself and what i need so in any given situation i can get myself together and figure out a way to keep moving forward.
As a user of a small, privacy respecting VPN, Cloudflare is both great and awful. It’s great because Cloudflare captchas are single click usually while Google captchas go for infinity. It’s awful because just as often as I benefit from Cloudflare, I also get blocked by Cloudflare.
IRCv3 has chat history but it hasn’t been widely deployed yet.
Not everyone has the luxury to be picky about where they work. For proper change to happen, we must reinvigorate communities and strengthen them by creating local, federated mutual aid networks that can support the community. This will allow people to take direct action without the fear of losing their next meal, home, job, healthcare, and/or support system.
riker shows a genderqueer person it’s okay to be out and then gets them sent to conversion therapy.
i think that if im that close to death already i would rather throw away my fear and get a lil weird for it. i don’t see why it necessarily has to be traumatizing.
i think I’ll give that a shot
did you pass through the disks or straight on zfs?
lots of people view the computer landscape as PCs and Macs. nevermind that Macs are pretty much always personal computers (as in computer hardware designed for use by a single individual at a time; non-server hardware)
I think it depends on your philosophy a lot. For me, I’m an absurdist so for me, remembering the futility of it all helps a lot. Grounding myself in that nothingness forces me to make and develop my own purpose, not derive it from product or capital. What drives me is tied not to the money I make nor my ability to make it, rather it comes from myself and the change I want to see in the world. I looked to the stars when I was young longing to explore them, but due to our species’s greed I know I never will. So I want to leave behind a world where future generations have the stability, resources, environment, and mental & physical health to look at the stars and actually visit them. It is difficult living under a system that is designed to grind you up for profit, but in holding true to yourself and what you value you can hold strong. It isn’t about how many times you fall down, but how many times you get up.
ETA: I also highly recommend philosophy and introspection if you don’t already practice or read about those subjects. In understanding yourself you will discover better ways to understand others, and vice versa. Humans are social creatures so hold onto those you love and trust and be open to new people. Do not fear loss or pain because then you will never live nor learn, but do not go recklessly into the night. Share the love, be empathetic and kind, and help people understand the truth and think for themselves. Doing those will hold you close to the ground and give you the roots you need to stand tall against the oppression.
i think it’s possible to self immolate without posing a massive danger to everyone. it takes precautions and training because you don’t want a molten man flailing around, but there have been people who have done so without posing a serious threat or risk to anyone else.
i think it’s less withdrawal and more your body flushing out all the cannabinoids, as well as going from smoking daily to not at all is a massive shift in body chemistry. that may have symptoms associated but may not necessarily be withdrawal, although that line can be blurry
I loved Capaldi. Hes my favorite Doctor. I missed the premier of the Chibnall era so I was just gonna wait until the entire season released so I could binge it, but then I heard the reviews and stopped watching for a few years. I need to return to it now though.
