I'm watching Dune (2021) on Tubi. I'm a newb to this franchise and I know more about the author than the series itself, but I have to say I am stunned that more people don't see the parallels between Dune and the oil wars in the Middle East right away.

Every one of those horsey Tiernans has got something wrong with them, that's a given. Mad even for jockeys, and no two mad in the same way.

Bill’s youngest is odd with it, though. Something strange there.

#killie #Colm! an Irish setter in welly boots #with a core of pure diamond and a mind that’s just a meadow full of horses #and an interior life of mystery.#killie is fey in the sense of being close to his death #Charlie is fey in the sense of being excitedly manic in the face of conflict #Colm is fey in the sense of: operating only vaguely in our shared plane of existence and only as a matter of politeness.#something odd about Colm.#lots odd about Colm.

Literally cannot explain the way Mincemeat has completely rewired my brain already planning a hopeful trip back in the fall to indoctrinate my sister

#operation mincemeat #i sent her the boot she hasn't said anything but it seems right up her alley #i know she also really wants to see outsiders so we may be seeing 2 of the same shows i saw last month #(if this works out of course lmaoo)#i usually try to see new stuff but honestly would not be mad if that's what happens

Maya Fey in Ace Attorney 1: Her insecurity about her usefulness after she loses her powers provides an interesting commentary on the ‘magic user’ role that girls in fiction (especially in 90s/00s media) are often given to ‘justify’ their presence in a primarily male cast to a primarily (though not exclusively) male audience. Her magic is her use. Her magic is her value. What message does this send to the audience who lives in the real world where girls can’t use magic?

Not only is the inadequacy one would feel from not having access to the ability they’ve been led to believe gives them their value acknowledged, the game then goes on to assure that these fears, although understandable, are unfounded. Maya isn’t useful because of her ability to channel spirits, but because of who she is as a person. Yes that does include spirit channelling sometimes, but Maya doesn’t lose her value when she loses that power. She still makes essential contributions towards winning trials because she is just as stubbornly determined as Phoenix to find the truth. Maya’s value doesn't come from having a special power, it comes from the same attributes that give Phoenix his value; attributes that anyone can have, no matter what they’ve been led to believe about themselves.

Maya Fey in all subsequent games: Constantly gets kidnapped and/or needs to be saved by Phoenix.

#ace attorney #maya fey #even if you ignore this reading Maya's arc in AA1 is just soooo solid #especially her performance being directly contrasted against Mia #an actual legal professional who actually knows legal stuff #and a pretty good legal professional to boot #Maya is just so out of her depth #and she's feeling it (especially when she stops being able to summon Mia)#but she keeps trying and SHE ACTUALLY SUCCEEDS IN HELPING BECAUSE MAYA IS A VALUABLE AND CAPABLE PERSON #even if she's in an environment where someone of her calibre wouldn't typically operate in #this is the first thing i've sat down and actually was able to work onwithout quitting after two sentences in a while. yay!#extra glad I was able to make this because I wasn't super happy with the last long Maya post I made #It's not terrible. It's just not super solid.

The Seventh Umbral Era -> The Seventh Astral Era. Glamours.

#ffxiv #gpose #au ra #ffxiv glamour #I'm gonna do this for all of them methinks. I have HW and STB figured out but SHB and EW gotta cook longer #some notes are: she begins her journey in Limsa so the riviera doublet reflects that #She wears the Adder's colors for Operation Archon.#Her dress for the banquet is clean and understated with a bright red accent bow-- which is symbolic/foreshadowing the death to follow.#It would be in tatters and filthy by the time she reaches Coerthas (woefully unprepared for the clime)#which could also be symbolic of how far the scions have fallen 🤔 but maybe im reaching #anyway she also carries a knife in her boot at all times

Hey does anyone have a reliable guide on VPNS, TOR browsers and good privacy stuff? I think I need to cut some subscriptions and get back into bad habits, but I have no idea how things even work anymore. Y'all still use torrents?

#the culmination of my 10 year deep cover sting operation #piracy #how to pirate #copyright violation for dummies #so you're sick of the capitalist boot on you neck - now what?

Q4OS – I setup for myself Linux with Trinity

I setup a Linux for myself. For not powerful system. With my Acer Extensa. It has two cores with 1.5 ghz. And 4gb of ram. I select in result – Q4OS. As light Linux. For not powerful systems. With its own graphic environment. It is easier, lighter. It has a name Trinity. Firm development from system’s authors. Special for this purpose – to system not to require lots of resources. And it is very good for me.

With author`s website you to download distributive. It is written with flash as a boot. One little moment, check carefully. There are, also, Live CD images. It is for run system from device. Like flash or compact disk. And, there are for setup, install. So, for install, you need this version to download. I was not accurate and first, download Live Cd. And, I see – I cannot find option to install. But, you can run system at once! I was surprised. I see what is it. And, I start to understand, what is it all about.

Installation process. It is simple and easy. Nothing tricky. Nothing hard. This is good. Installation is friendly to the user. We are moving with steps of installation. And after - system, at last, launching. It is, already, installed. It is good to check updates. What is here. All is automatically checked by itself. It has a name packages for Linux. Lists with packages. You just need to start a certain purpose program. This means network is required. Without internet you cannot to do updates.

And, later, with manager packages. You start it and see what it can show you. So, it has lots of different. I am not expert with Linux. I take it as a probe. I setup for myself a whole pack, preset for packages. Little game. It is Chocolate Doom with some pack. So, this is not only Chocolate Doom. And, also, some files included. To have all included. So, it includes FreeDoom. And this is comfortable! So, you can start to play at once. To play. Levels for FreeDoom are unique. Even, its own graphics. But, mainly, it is same Doom.

Once again, I am not expert with Linux. And, better say, I try to try this with my own. But funny thing it is. Installer is looking like it is MS DOS. So, it has such install line. And, system itself. It reminds Windows. Level Windows Xp or even like Windows 98, maybe. Such background, similar color. And windows forms.

Interesting moment! Visually, I like a lot this Trinity scheme for desktop. About functions it is very good. I am very surprised. There are lots of things here. And main - there package manager. Using it to update. And install. And this is comfortable. For start – it is good way.

Visual side looks like something Windows 98 with plus. I like a lot this visual side. Functions are good. And now it is my first launch. I little about to play Doom. I visit websites with browser. First launch was successful! And positive!

iron (hardware) and programs. From time to time i restore computers, retro computers. Try retro soft. Check some programs. And write about all of these.

Dima Link is making retro videogames, apps, a little of music, write stories, and some retro more.

Hey soldier

#vaguely inspired by a chapter cover from the nge manga #I feel like no one remembers that Misato was in command of military operations at nerv #she’s in an officer position and she probably didn’t get there without going though some kind of boot camp/officer training #she’s not just an anti angel strategist she’s a soldier #if we EVER get any eva content during the timeskip I hope we see some of the conflict between gendos forces and wille #I wanna see her fight someone let me see her throw hands anno let me see her shoot someone #evangelion #neon genesis evangelion #nge #ritsuko akagi #misato katsuragi #my art #eva
