That's not far from reality. Quantum computers work with qubits.

Foundation, and Futurama, now that Strange New Worlds is an hiatus for a loong time.

I plan to start watching Silo in about an hour though!

I did Project Hail Mary two books back, so I won't revisit that for a while. I HIGHLY recommend the audiobook though; I honestly can't see how it could hold up in text form, it feels like it was made to be an audiobook.

I'm currently on the Bobiverse books (#1) by Dennis E Taylor.

As bad as Project 2025 looks I couldn't see anything about kicking out senators, "just" federal employees.
Any sources on the more extreme claims?

Haha, I made this exact mistake when I started with audiobooks recently.
Went with The Martian as #2, and currently on the Bobiverse books, but so far they just aren't as amazing.

Mine is doing it too, and I never voluntarily watch any right-wing-related content (not even anti-right-wing). It's usually anti-trans rhetoric it tries to push on me.

I used it probably a month ago, too.

Nice! I started using it just this week. I built a computer to serve as NAS with Debian and ZFS.

I'm also considering moving my Ubuntu based server to Debian; it gets too many package updates that I frankly don't care about, plus even Ubuntu server feels a bit bloated.
I moved from Gentoo to Ubuntu a few years ago precisely to reduce my workload; I just wanted it to work... and now I'm considering Debian for the same reason.

Hm, I thought the beginning of S2 was really quite good.

I'm not sure how it's madness. An episode can be bad in itself and not contribute anything of value to the greater story arc, in which case I don't see why it's wrong to see it as bad.

TNG was great, and the best episodes are incredible, but most episodes were fairly mediocre. I feel SNW's average is higher, and it's probably in part for having LESS than half the number of episodes per season.

I think they'd be fine with 12, maybe even 14, but beyond that I don't they could keep it as great as it's been.
