Alpine is fucking bae. I love that little distro so goddamned much.

I’ve played five and six string basses, but I’ve always owned a four string. I guess I like the punch of a Jazz bass a little better. Especially Ibanez and Peavey Cirrus basses; they’re almost “floppy” sounding to me.

I am, once again, in the only correct corner

I like distro chooser, but the analysis seems off. It always recommends some mainstream distro that I end up hating after extended use. I’ve finally found one I like, but it was through brute force, not from some list somewhere or from asking in forums.

Everybody raise your hand if you were radicalized by Star Trek ✋

It helps that Stewart is such a fantastic monologist. It’s like hearing something complex about biology or ecology from David Attenborough. They both have such an effortless ability to communicate difficult subjects.

Another key point I feel is often overlooked about Star Trek is the “Gulliver’s Travels” component of (at least pre-Kelvin) Star Trek. Every show, every race was secretly a fun-house-like caricature of humanity’s worst traits, with the humans of the show demonstrating growth past that point. You laugh at or shirk away from them, but really it’s modern humanity that is being depicted (Ferengi as capitalists, Klingons as warmongers, Romulans as subversives, etc.) And then we see what we could be, the hope that you talked about, in future humanity
