Mpc is literally designed to look like the media player from windows 98…just with actual functionality.

VLC doesn’t need to be new it needs to be good. How about a nice forward=next in folder backward=back in folder? How about a nice click-anywhere-to-pause. How about being able to move the video player around without grabbing exactly the right piece of chrome? What about sane fucking volume normalization instead of letting you accidentally crank the volume to 200%? These are all things mpc does right.

Given your description I’m assuming Linux. Mpc is one of the things I find impossible to replace on Linux because all of the options are VLC or yet-another-half-baked-mpv-wrapper authored by lickmydragonballz93 on GitHub. On the other hand VLC has the strong half-baked UI vibes that Linux is known for, so maybe you’re used to it?

Your point seems to contradict your earlier point

You’re gross and you enable grosser people

Always more castles

Mpc is significantly better than VLC. Occasionally I need VLC to play a file but we’re now talking every 1-2 years. VLCs UI is baaad.

They may not solely represent a religion but they definitely represent it. Mormons also represent a part of a religion. As do crusaders. And the Klan. And people who circumcise women. And the child rapists in the Catholic church.

You don’t get to claim only nice things are representative and bad things aren’t as if religion as a power structure isn’t the core problem in and of itself.

Even the supposed efficiency benefits of the nest basically come down to “if you leave the house and forget to turn the air down, we will do it for you automatically”

Now That’s What I Call Christianity: Des Moines Volume

Luiiiiigiiiiii

Honestly I can get behind three Xavier generations and all three dune generations having overlap. Feels right. Need to make this happen.

I would also accept Jason Momoa as Xavier. Better than fucking Aquaman.

I don’t know if capitalism is to blame so much as a shift towards a more interdependent society. People blame the industrial revolution, which I think makes sense, but it’s not the spectre of capitalism in and of itself. Having more dedicated roles meant less chores at home for everyone (eventually) but more chores like “going shopping” which has to be done during the hours when things are open which means you inherently want to concentrate all of your active hours for most of the population into a small subset (our current 8-6 time frame). There’s still morning people and normal people, but that time is spent in general on concentrated large scale socialization (going to the bars or whatever) and individual hobbies (running for morning people, seemingly universally; games, tv, etc for normal people).

Of course all this is a guess. Maybe the monopoly man really does hate people sleeping. Elon sure does.

How old were you when you started reading them?

It was an advertisement that people paid lots of money to watch. I don’t think you can expect more from it than that.

What is RPO?

Really anything with that dude is just not funny to me. But that movie is a real low point.

Why do you hate fun, though? And joy? And “this is Unix” when it’s clearly the antithesis of what Unix nerds get boners for Unix about (the command line, if not clear)

Dune without Patrick Stewart or any other Xavier actors just doesn’t count.

But for reals, I honestly did find the two newest versions way more boring than the older ones.
