Ass Ponys. When you search for them on YouTube, be sure to search for "Ass ponys band." Otherwise you'll find a lot of softcore My Little Pony porn.

Thanks. Luckily there are some people here who have a smidge of empathy. They are few and far between, but not nonexistent.

I'm in Daegu myself. Enjoy the relative progressiveness of the capital city. Down here that guy would get beaten.

Never spend time in South Korea. They put corn and sweet potato on pizza. And that's just where it starts.

I think it's intentionally ambiguous. For me, the point is the paranoia and distrust. I might be wrong, of course, but my interpretation is that we are supposed to leave the experience with questions.

John Carpenter's 1982 masterpiece The Thing. The themes of paranoia and isolation are so perfectly explored; it launched the career of Keith David, who is just a treasure; the performances are all immaculate; and those effects. My god, the effects.

Can I DM you with the concept(s) I have in mind?

As far as design/style, I have a few specific ideas in mind that I could easily explain to an artist, but I have no stringent requirements. I'm also very flexible on the timeline. This is a hobby project, so there are no deadlines or prerequisites.

That's probably the most practical suggestion; thanks. I'll turn to that if this post doesn't get anywhere. I just wanted to ask the fediverse first, for a number of reasons.

Nerds do well in school. Geeks don't.

Chris Barnatt is one of my favourite people on the internet. His vocal cadence, his humour, his editing choices. It's perfection. Thanks for sharing.

Damn straight. Well, good luck out there. I hope you only have good experiences on Lemmy. And you can feel good knowing you gave this guy the warm and fuzzies.

Also, I would like to say that this is why I love Lemmy. The community is just so much friendlier and more empathetic than a place like Reddit. Thank you for reinforcing my perception.

Thank you for being sincere in this reply; you could easily have gotten defensive. And sorry if my reply seemed overly snarky. I'm not very good at social media.

That is very strange. I wonder how that decision got made. But funnily enough, that is the exact reason I went for the T16 over the Z16, which was priced similarly during the sale I took advantage of for this. I could have swallowed the lack of USB-A ports, because docks are not that expensive where I live, but for fuck's sake. Give me rj45 or give me death.

Thank you; I am enjoying it very much so far. It blows my 5-year-old Acer Nitro 5 out of the water. I hope you enjoy yours too.

Ah, that's unfortunate. I haven't really had a chance to push this machine very much, so I can't say from experience whether it's really better.

Awesome. Now here's hoping neither of us drop our brand new machines on the ground.

This is my first ever Thinkpad, so I can't be disappointed by the comparison. What I can compare it to, though, is my old Acer Nitro 5, and it is miles ahead of that one. The build quality, the keyboard, everything is superior on the Thinkpad.
