Maybe post the entire DMESG just in case.

I think a-Shell's the best thing for that - gives you a nice Unix style shell on your iPhone.

Old isn't necessarily bad. Also, as far as I can tell, distros are still patching 1.32. Based on my personal usage of LightDM and the fact that the project is still developed (based on commits to main), I'd say it's more of an "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" dynamic. As for security, the active development suggests the developers would respond if there was a vulnerability - a big if, considering its last CVE was in 2017.

Personally, I love LightDM - it has just enough features while mostly sticking to its name (I mean, you're probably using GTK anyway).

I’d say the only one that competes with it for me is Generations.

The appearance of the D once again brings me back to the question - is each reality also in the year 2382, or is there a temporal differential that randomly varies?

There are a couple other instances begging this question:

  • Captain Tersal is wearing a TNG-era uniform. It wouldn't be much of a stretch to just say the uniform was never retired in her timeline and are intended to be kept largely the same like the monster maroons, but it still presents a possibility.
  • Boimler is able to read about alt-Boimler's missions on the alt-PADD. Does this mean alt-Boimler's timeline is a bit ahead, or is the PADD somehow maintaining its connection with the alternate timeline?

I might also add that it being a Galaxy Class Enterprise alone does not mean it is the D - we only know it's the Enterprise D because of Ransom calling it "the purple D".

I have my own theory that alt-Boimler is actually William Boimler tasked to replace his other self for mysterious Section 31 reasons. He even says "No one deserves to be replaced by their own clone."

However, that theory aside, I joke that there's a chain of modelling off alternate realities that spans the ship ranks, the various levels of admirals, the Federation presidency, the Travelers, the Q Continuum, and beyond.

Virt Manager does have snapshots as well.

As for the host system directory mounts, you got me there. There seems to be an option in the Virt Manager GUI, but it is kind of difficult to get working.

I've never used Virtualbox on Linux - it was what I used back when I was on Windows.

Yes, I've unmounted an ISO image plenty of times. The button, in my opinion, isn't that hard to find.

What’s weird is in the IDW comics, Data has become a severed head again as well.

I don’t agree. I’m pretty sure Virtualbox has its own weird kernel module instead of KVM.

In addition, I’m pretty sure the the Virt Manager GUI has most of those features and is in general pretty easy to use.

[–] data1701d@startrek.website 3 points 1 month ago

Virt Manager GUI is my preferred.

I’m a little sad. When I saw a time dilation plot, I was honestly expecting an unexpected romance to begin between Mariner and one of the other two (probably T’Lyn) - not like it fully develops, but like something weird to show up in the possible future we better get in the finale.
