The twist is that it’s a shapeshifting killer robot from the movie Terminator 2, specifically a T-1000 sent back in time to kill the child in question. The biker, on the other hand is an older (non-shapeshifting) killer robot model also sent back in time (to protect the kid from the newer model).
My day was going great until I got reminded that that thing exists…
I tried that already, didn’t really help. That repo is currently deactivated on my machine, I think I had some (more) annoying problem with it (don’t remember all the details), but after spending quite a few hours on this problem, I essentially gave up trying to fix it. Right now, video playback works well enough that I don’t want to deal with it anymore.
And, honestly, I haven’t had a Linux installation where everything related to multimedia and graphics drivers just worked flawlessly. Ubuntu, Debian, Arch and Suse all had different issues. Switching from Nvidia to AMD didn’t help, either. Sometimes the flaws were minor and easy to ignore, but it has never ever worked as well as it does on Windows.
Not gonna lie, I’m glad I’ve moved from Arch to Tumbleweed. Media codecs are handled worse somehow, but I haven’t had to deal with crap like this ever since…
On the bright side, we’ll finally get to experience a dystopian scifi movie first-hand :3

Why do we only seem to get the bad outlandish things from books and movies? :/
You’re welcome :) Terminator 2 is an incredible action movie, one of the best I’ve ever seen. This scene alone right at the beginning will forever live rent-free in my mind. So yeah, if you like action movies, both it and Terminator 1 are great to watch.
