Surprised to see so few mentions of For All Mankind, I really wanted to like it I did, but I only got about 2 episodes in. I realized the setting was the only thing that remotely interested me, the characters were bland at best, and absolutely incompetent at worst.

It was a series with the ripe call to the "competency porn" as I've seen described as, but the characters couldn't contrast the setting any further. I did spoil myself before I tried getting into it, a few moments stuck out to me. Firing on two unarmed cosmonauts, getting crushed between two interplanetary vessels while trying to covertly siphon fuel, and having a child on mars. Just did not feel very NASA by the end of it, tell me if you think I'm wrong and should give another chance however.

Oddly enough I think I found that aesthetic I was looking for in Stargate SG-1, I never really gave that franchise a chance until now, I'm almost surprised how well it seemed to age, especially how little I see it mentioned in comparison to Trek, or even Doc Who (which i know next to nothing of)

Honestly, you may be able to for the expanse. I would argue at least the last few episodes of S1, but there is definitely a bit of a tonal shift as the screenwriters worked themselves closer to the books. Imo S2 & 3 have the strongest arcs whose themes bleed into the rest, with the world changing around those later.

I could not at all sink into for all mankind, knowing some of the major plot beats didn't help at all, i honestly don't know if i watched enough to make a judgement, but also trying to have a kid on Mars was probably the dumbest thing I heard that definitely pushed me away

Why are lemm.ee accounts always up to shit like this?

Well this comment was the last thing I read before seeing he died about 7 hours ago, guess you were right

Yeahhh... no criminal record, intimidation and late night visits, nothing similar here!

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt you're engaging in good faith. So what do you say about the Supreme court ordering the return of 'mistakenly' deported man, you don't say that's a flagrant violation of due process?

Autorotation.

The headline should be what ICE says

I don't support ICE or...

Fucking pick one, if you're being genuine and you think this headline is sensationalist, I have some bad news for you...

I have a dumb fucking stupid scar on the meaty part of my palm under my thumb, from using a pair of wire strippers - backwards - as an ad hoc pickle jar opener. The little chunk barely attached left now a perfect little sharkbite scar that I've grown to despise as a reminder of hubris

I'll admit my local model has given me some insight, but in researching more of something, I find the source it likely spat it out from. Now that's helpful, but I feel as though my normal search experience wasn't so polluted with AI written regurgitation of the next result down, I would've found the nice primary source. One example was a code block that computes the inertial moment of each rotational axis of a body. You can try searching for sources and compare what it puts out.

If you have more insight into what tools, especially more i can run local that would improve my impression, i would love to hear. However my opinion remains AI has been a net negative on the internet as a whole (spam, bots, scams, etc) thus far, and certainly has not and probably will not live up to the hype that has been forecast by their CEOs.

Also if you can get access to powerautomate or at least generally know how it works, Copilot can only add nodes seemingly in a general order you specify, but does not connect the dataflow between the nodes (the hardest part) whatsoever. Sometimes it will parse the dataflow connections and return what you were searching for (ie a specific formula used in a large dataflow), but not much of which seems necessary for AI to be doing.

Okay explain it to me like I just drank a quarter gallon of moonshine

I would think willfully violating a judge's constitutional order would be like some kinda of crime, maybe like criminal contempt of court or something.. eh I ain't a lawyer
