Does rotation not result in gimball lock without quaternions?

Why are you comparing an economic concept and a form of representation concept

Linux on arm!

I don't know else of value you could be trying to communicate in /c/sciencefiction by saying "DCC is Fantasy, not science fiction." other than "This doesn't belong here"

The phrase has two definitions, someone is trying to share their opinion on a book in a place they thought was relevant, the book is listed as Science Fiction on goodreads. It just comes off as gate keeping.

Yes, the distinctions between sci-fi, science fantasy, epic fantasy, etc are lost on a lot of people. I can appreciate that posts about DCC are not particularly relevant to the /c/sciencefiction community. I think that some movies in the MCU are explicitly categorized as science fiction on platforms like IMDB and Netflix, for example Guardians of the Galaxy or Thor: Ragnarok. The rigid definition of sci-fi that people use in the literary world are often ignored at the scope of mass appeal.

And that's great, but outside of the sci-fi fantasy niche people do not refer to anything with a space ship as science fantasy. Pop-Culturally space ships and lasers is sci-fi.

Sorry but to most people star wars is scifi. I appreciate that you're correct, but words only have so much value as their ability to be understood, so sometimes wrong words are right.

I have some xeons in an old server running that I can't update to the next version of Rocky because the kernel won't support them :(

This hits the nail on the head for me as well.

They're becoming quite vocal about the feasibility of Linux on the desktop as of late too. Linus finally found a Linux machine that doesn't explode the moment he touches it and appears to have left smitten.

That's okay we all goof sometimes
