Caddyshack. Happy Gilmore a close second.

Bend it Like Beckham, or Victory.

Edit: Bad News Bears or Major League.

I was going to just ask, “Why?!” but I think you summed it up pretty well.

It’s a sad commentary on our society. It isn’t nearly as healthy as I mistakenly thought it was 10 years ago – clearly I overestimated how well things were going. That this many would throw away The Great Experiment just boggles the mind.

I’m a paranoid sort. If I paraded a quarter of the signs, flags, offensive bumper stickers, et. al., of some of my neighbors in my red state, I would just expect that my property would be vandalized, my family threatened, my life endangered. I’m intentionally avoiding showing up on any “lists” that might be composed regarding people from different tribes. It’s not right that this is a problem, but it is reality.

Unless my math is wrong, early September is only roughly 8 months from New Year’s, not 9.

I was thinking more like an Ivy League graduate from a Lawyering the Dark Arts School of Deceptive Loopholes and Twisting, but I see your point.

Edit: added a word

Cannot recommend? Or cannot recommend enough? I don’t want to put words in your mouth, but that’s exactly the sort of brain typo that I would make, giving my audience exactly the opposite claim to what I’d intended, and based on context, I think the latter is what you were going for?

I’ve heard of Earthsea, but had no idea what it was about. Now I may need to pick it up. I rather enjoyed a more recent story with a similar plot, written by an author with, shall we say, less progressive opinions.

The Mult will just go back to wearing diapers and carrying rattles at rallies and other events. Because, as they’d tell you, that’s not weird at all. Now, tan suits, don’t get them started.

Depends on the hardware, but generally, yeah.

(It’s a joke)

I’d be interested to see what people have to say regarding VR setup, but the Oculus gets little use anymore. I have a few games that were never ported to the newer, self-contained systems (I have a Quest 3), and we’ve downloaded a bunch of custom Beat Saber levels that I might feel bad about, but the sensors are a big enough pain to set up that I don’t know that I’d feel that bad.

I have an old (2017) Windows 10 box that is ineligible for Windows 11. Originally purchased to run my Oculus Rift, it now just streams YouTube and Twitch and plays some old Steam games and occasionally school related stuff (Lexia, Scratch, stuff like that).

I started thinking that, rather than worrying about an unsupported Windows OS on my network, I might upgrade to Mint or Ubuntu.

So, my question(s) is/are, how much of a hassle will such an upgrade be? Will I need to wipe the drive, or can I keep my files without having to back them up first? Can I run Windows games on Steam with Wine? Are there good 3D card drivers nowadays?

I’m reasonably versed in using Linux as a user, less so as an admin, in case that affects the way you answer.

Your Mars house will need pressurization, and some sort of airlock if you’re planning on coming and going.
