    Why people worry so much? Just put CAPTCHAs on important bits, those let only real humans through. AI apocalypse averted! (Is that too dark of a joke? I don&amp;#39;t know. Have darker.)

    You look at the design of the aliens in #Babylon5 — mysterious Vorlons, basically evil Shadows, Roman-looking Centauri, etc. — and think that it’s too on the nose. But then you look at Garibaldi and think that he’s the kind of guy who would have a podcast (yes, in *that* way). Life itself isn’t so subtle. (Explanation: Jerry Doyle, the actor, had a podcast. Yes, in *that* way.)

    If you believe that any actor can play any role, how do you justify casting?

    I don’t know about planes, but if you can walk away from assembling furniture, it’s good assembling.

    It’s fun to think that the suspension of disbelief was invented. It’s difficult to do that with theater for obvious reasons, but you can compare old and new fiction books. Nowadays, you’re immediately in the story, go-go-go. Back then, there would be a justification: Who is the narrator? Why are they telling the story? What is it about? Who it is intended for? An unskippable tutorial, if you will. And the language would not conceal the artificiality. It’s *a story*, there is *a narrator*.

    What could cause one keyboard to work fine with #SteamOS ( #SteamDeck ) / #KDEPlasma / #WezTerm and another to not send Ctrl+Shift+* shortcuts? To clarify, an example: Both LibreWolf and WezTerm are AppImages. One Bluetooth keyboard sends Ctrl+Shift+T to LibreWolf and Ctrl+Shift+M (my custom shortcut) to WezTerm without issue. However, another Bluetooth keyboard sends Ctrl+Shift+T to LibreWolf, but not Ctrl+Shift+M to WezTerm. I’m baffled. #FediAsks #FediAsk #Linux
