I use KDE. I like how easy it is to customize pretty much everything. Like, if I want everything to be green, I can make everything green and no one can stop me.

It depends on the species, but the highest recorded bird was a Rüppell’s Vulture at 37,000 feet (11,300 meters).

Rose from Pokémon Sword and Shield. He wants to solve an energy crisis that won’t actually be an issue for like 1,000 years. Then when Leon asks him to delay his plans for literally one day he massively flips out and decides to kick off the apocalypse. And no, it doesn’t make any more sense in context.

This could be argued to be a thing related to the split from the original timeline, but the Kelvin version of Chekov is born four years earlier than his original timeline counterpart.

• Nena - 99 Luftballons

99 Düsenflieger
Jeder war ein großer Krieger
Hielten sich für Captain Kirk
Es gab ein großes Feuerwerk
Die Nachbarn haben nichts gerafft
Und fühlten sich gleich angemacht
Dabei schoss man am Horizont
Auf 99 Luftballons

Captain Kirk is mentioned in both the original German and the English version. The reference is actually moved to a different verse in the English version so that it still works.

• The B-52s - Song for a Future Generation

Wanna be the Captain of the Enterprise
Wanna be the King of the Zulus
Let's meet and have a baby now!

This one might could also be a reference to any one of the many Navy ships with the name, but I choose to believe someone in the band is one of us.

I love the game, but hate the part where they make you play through the original arcade Donkey Kong on a single life to get a Golden Banana. Then they had the audacity to make you do it again for the Nintendo Coin.

It’s not just Star Trek that they’re doing this with. My mom was browsing Paramount+ yesterday and the image for Ghosts UK had a character neither us had seen before.

Edit: The Spongebob icon is even worse. His face is just a mouth.

I’m using one of the Catppuccin ones right now. It comes in a lot of colors, so there’s always one that looks good with the theme I’m using.

We also don’t want people using AI to make porn of us without our consent.

Lots of things. The biggest categories are probably video games and music. I also like airline playing cards.

In Latin sinister means left (as in the direction), but later it also meant evil or unlucky. That led to the Old French senestre and sinistre, meaning false or unfavorable. Then finally the English sinister meaning malicious.

The etymology for left (especially in reference to handedness) in multiple languages is actually pretty discriminatory.

The Animal Crossing fandom is all three at once.

Some players are super nice and helpful. They do things like giveaways, share when they have high turnip prices, and let others in their town to recruit moving villagers.

Then you also have people who literally charge entry fees for their island. They’ll use this to sell items and villagers to other players. I’ve even heard of people running scams this way. Even worse is the people who charge real money (this is generally frowned upon in most communities, but pretty lucrative on eBay and Etsy).

The Pikachu might be based on Cosplay Pikachu from Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
