I had one night where my mind was apparently just deadset on giving me a nightmare, despite me being lucid. It tried pulling the “woke up in bed” thing to make it seem real, and it seemed fine until I went to turn on the light and... nothing happened. Lamp didn’t work, ceiling fan didn’t work, phone didn’t work...…

I have two triggers, myself. Nightmares, in and of themselves, are a trigger for me. Psychopaths or the supernatural will trigger a lucid dream every time. I no longer have actual “nightmares”.

That isn’t accurate, there is undeniably a “better” option.

As someone that has used Android since the G1, Android has been ready for “prime time” for over a decade. At least as long as iOS, if not longer (depending upon your view on necessary features).

So much work on something that Diablo 3 does better.

I think the existence of an incredibly thin, tough material capable of making a parachute wouldn’t really defy the laws of physics in a world where infinity stones exist.

Having a problem with this when they all exist in a universe where a glowing cube can tear a hole across the universe is... kinda silly.

Sympathy can prevent action when the other person is asking for it.

I don’t think I would want to live in the mad max thunderdome world where it wasn’t ok to punch Nazi’s.

It is Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, by the by.

That picture looks like one of those uncanny valley tech demos showing some fancy new skin/hair cgi techniques.

You might want to consider installing and managing anti-malware software on Linux since it is still targeted by malware developers. It has had ransomware and other malicious bits of software hit it in the last year too.

Ok, so say that everyone just jumped ship to Linux... what do you think would happen then?

Linux specific... unless you want to throw the dice using Wine which, admittedly, is better than it used to be but is no real alternative to Windows for gaming.

Linux is great... for some people.

I haven’t the slightest idea why Gizmodo and Lifehacker brought me out of the grays.

Well, hopefully something comes of it. Seems like it would be a trivial feature to implement... but then, I am not exactly a programmer.

Well, there is an alarm program that will wake your machine from sleep... I suspect by setting something in the task manager to accomplish it.

Well, the Alarm app will work if the machine is asleep... if your hardware supports “InstantGo” (also known as Connected Standby). It is a hardware feature, rather than software, so as long as your hardware is capable of that... it works.

How is a completely different version of the OS “going full on cloud subscription”?
