Because it never should’ve been made in the first place.

Like the Star Wars sequels, it was just yet another example of

• a mainstream, well-known, toe-the-line corporate Hollywood director who
• is known for making big bombastic movies that are great eye-candy but shallow stories (“a mile wide but an inch deep”),
• who aren’t actually fans of the franchise & are thus actually just outsiders to the fandom and thus don’t know what makes actual members of the fandom “tick”, what makes the content great and all that,
• and because they’re not huge fans of the franchise, rather than spend the time & energy to consume, understand, and get up to speed with all the years of varied lore (good and bad), they just go the lazy route, say “fuck it let’s just do a reboot” so they don’t have to do all the work.

It’s easy to say that the Kelvinverse is “just an alternative canon”, but that’s only because it largely flopped. If the Kelvinverse had taken off, or if Paramount had been stubborn and kept with it like Disney has with the Star Wars “Disney canon”, it would have undoubtedly been the only officially recognized canon. This is exactly what happened to Star Wars, and as it stands Legends/EU canon have only largely been kept alive by the fans, with very few exceptions (one of them being the Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO).

I hope you like it!

I personally really like the “DTM-08” theme by 11pixels. ;)

I don’t normally like mustard anything, but yeah that shit is fire.

All of the Kelvin-verse Star Trek movies and all Disney-canon Star Wars content.

.......Except for Andor and Rogue One. That shit is tight.

• Google Maps: Switch to CoMaps, they’re a fork of Organic Maps that grew out of a transparency issue with the Organic Maps core developers
• Youtube on pc: Not familiar with youtube-tui with mpv but FreeTube is pretty awesome too :3
• Clients for offline music: I like kew (for PC) :3
• Discord: Element is good, but in the interim you should check out Equibop! It’s a fork of the Discord client that strips out a lot of the telemetry.

And regarding PeerTube, be aware that if you go into it expecting it to be a replacement for YouTube, you will always end up disappointed. YouTube is just too big and entrenched at this point and it’s just not possible for any site to be a straight-up 1:1 replacement.

It’s kind of like renewable energy sources: no one method is going to supplant fossil fuels, but multiple different options being used where each is effective the most has worked quite well in putting a quite noticeable dent, even if not a large one, in the world’s usage of it. Likewise, PeerTube, Odyssey, Nebula, all the different sources cropping up will never replace YouTube individually, but collectively it will give people more options, which is always good.

Likewise, I’ve found that PeerTube is great for discovering new content, but it requires a perspective change. Honestly it reminds me more of YouTube in its early days. Not a lot of high-cost productions, but more just regular people putting up videos because they have a passion for it and want to share that passion. For now, I still do use YouTube, but I am finding some great stuff here and there on PeerTube as well. I guess what I’m saying is PeerTube cannot be a replacement of YouTube, but it can be a supplement to YouTube, if you want it to be.

Anyway, sorry for the ramble. Haha. Have a great day and good luck! ^_^

Because I splurged and bought too many Snyder’s of Hanover pretzel bags and now don’t have any money. :C

OF COURSE they called them domestic terrorists. That’s what all authoritarian regimes call groups that are a threat to them. 🙄

Yes, it stays there.

That’s really cool that the snooze thing makes it go away!

Oh I see so there really is no difference functionally aside from the fact that the native functionality is manual restoration while the addon functionality is automatic restoration?

Er…sorry. I guess what I meant by that is that from what you tell me it seems that there is virtually no difference between what the native “tab unloading” function is and what the addon’s “tab snooze” function is, that difference being that the former requires manually reactivating a tab while the latter can do it at a specific time/duration like an alarm clock.

Is that about right?

But then loading an unloaded tab reloads the page, does it not? Or does it go strictly by the cached version? If it is the former, then it should load the newest comments.

Might be less coffee but it’s not just the coffee that’s the waste; it’s all the extra plastic that each one of those K-cups uses.

Plastic often lasts centuries (at least) to biodegrade and even then animals try to eat the waste and then die horribly.

Get outta here with that spam nonsense.

Tab Snooze - allows you to close a tab and have it reappear at a chosen time later

Can’t Firefox already do this though?

It’s a shame if he never did anything with it, but thanks for going into detail! :D

It’s not okay for management to do that either. The devs don’t need asshole customers doing it too.

Looks like they invented a new way to doxx people!

Does it still exist, and can it be implemented client-side? That sounds really cool!

Can confirm. I’ve used FitGirl for years and countless games and have never once had an issue with malware. She seems pretty reliable on that front.
