You just need 3 largish televisions, a small TV or monitor for the top, and stuff to mount each screen in that configuration. Your PC doesn’t need to be that good unless you are doing something like gaming, just enough to run 4 1080p windows. Once you connect them, it’s fairly easy to adjust the configuration in Windows to extend and rotate the monitors to make the setup work. Depending on how you get the televisions (you can buy them used, flat screen 1080p TVs have been popular for a long time and are relatively affordable) and how you decide to mount them, you can build this setup for only a couple hundred
A big part of why this season feels stale is that its topical references are several years old. Like Dune and Ivermectin, in this episode. Was this season written two years ago and is only being released now?
We saw this with the last reboot, like the “Earth Certificate” episode. They are writing using then-current references, but because the normal time to produce an episode is so long, the references feel stale. South Park was king of topical references because their production turnaround was 6 days. They were able to put out a Michael Jackson episode the week after he passed. That said, I don’t want a Futurama episode that they only worked on for 6 days.
For some reason, that one didn’t annoy me as much. Maybe I saw that season only after it came out on DVD, and thought “yeah, this is dated, but I see how it landed when it was still fresh. This season, I’m watching the episodes within a day or two of them coming out, so it feels like getting stale bread at the bakery.
Yeah, I think this was a poor attempt/forcing a joke.
I think they’re trying to use the words rake and hoe as synonyms (which they are; they can both mean “promiscuous woman”) but flubbed the execution.
I see the intent here, but I don’t think the image macro works for that joke. I have tried to make it work a few different ways, but I’m not coming up with anything that works well.
Famously, there is a Jeopardy! answer/question that highlighted the synonym which should be easily searchable with “rake hoe jeopardy”
Thanks for the detailed analysis. I think the joke was still funny because I didn’t look too closely at the picture and try to pick out problems with it.
I’ve never been to a rock concert. I’ve been to plenty of shows in clubs, but never a concert. It always felt like it wouldn’t be worth it unless I paid a ton of money for close up seats. And then I’d go deaf.
I honestly don’t get people that say “I use Chrome because I’m used to it”. It’s not like Firefox and Chrome are immensely different when it comes to UX, right? The interface is pretty similar.
Sure. But I also professionally use a product that works better on Chrome (and Edge nowadays) so I’m lazy about it. Eventually I’ll move to Firefox on my home PC. But in on my work PC and phone 95% of the time already so it’s not going to make a huge dent.
I switched from windows to Garuda about a month ago and as others are saying it’s very usable out of the box, even stuff like steam and proton come pre installed.
That said, if you’re using multiple monitors you’re probably going to want to right click on the desktop of all non-main monitors and add (iirc) the default panel. Out of the box only the main monitor has the bar at the top of the screen that allows you to enlarge/close/move windows that are at full screen. I get the aesthetic choice there, but it was bad for my usability.
Other than that, if you’ve got an Nvidia graphics card make sure you’re using the right drivers for it otherwise sometimes it might go wonky (though I’m hoping my recent update fixed that).
Also, learn how to use AUR and terminal at your own pace, but don’t neglect it. As a new linux user there’s a lot more in terminal than I expected but the more I use it the less scary it is. Similarly there’s a lot that’s only available for Debian/Ubuntu or fedora based distros, but AUR often has an arch hack to it
