Cleopatra 2525 is just something
I’ve watched about half of that list. Well, when I run out of Grand Star episodes, I guess I have more warehouses to explore then haha.
To contrast this, see Vancouver sci fi, like the X Files, SG1, Smallville, The 100, Dark Angel, BSG, etc…
Or Halifax with… Lexx ;)
This is barely a joke. There are real sets like this.https://www.electronicbeats.net/sleepover-drone-is-the-ambient-rave-that-wants-to-put-you-to-sleep/
This is one of my favourites: https://phase47.bandcamp.com/album/tf
Neufeld’s von Braun book is great! It doesn’t pull any ethical punches – it’s almost clinical in the treatment of his early career opportunism within the Nazi regime.
The bottom shelves are dedicated more to rocket science than human spaceflight, generally, which is why I don’t have Hadfield’s book. I met him once though. I did grad school in Planetary Science and got to meet quite a few astronauts and have a few beers.
I really loved things like Eros station docks in The Expanse. So yeah it fits this vibe haha. :)
Forward slash doesn’t throw a mental syntax error? ;)
What is the plural of mail? ;)
The current version is in C++
But if you check the link above, the older C and Fortran editions are free to read. This is the gold standard for numerical algorithms and scientific computing, without getting into things like GPUs and such.
Outer Worlds. Colourful corporate dystopian. Purpleberry Crunch!
That’s a good idea. Better than my other ideas. Cereal box full of cereal and the modem.
For a moment I considered putting in a bucket with resin and letting it solidify, then removing the bucket and just shipping them a modem encased in resin. But they’d probably charge me for the modem they’re just going to send to the landfill anyway. Maybe I should do that and turn it into a modem bowl on the lathe…
Electron for physics apps? Yuck! that’s basically just web dev with local hosting. Like, try six million datapoints and plotting them in electron.
Making a web app is a mistake 9 times out of 10, particularly when dealing with larger datasets. Because you’re in physics, you probably want to skills you’re learning to be transferable into physics and data science in general.
I recommend starting with python (if you know it already, awesome), then checking out pyqtgraph – there’s a bunch of demo apps that come with the package and you can use those as launch points. This will be your gateway into pyqt/pyside and legit desktop application development. Later, if you learn C++, you can transition into Qt (and still use all the power of the toolkit and the skills are transferable), or into raw C++ which is amazing for numerical computing.
Well, you kind of can actually. It just replaces KWin
Does links count? ;)
links --gui
Or old school Konqueror.
I use Firefox on my phone, and Chrome on my work computer.
This sounds like the sort of infrastructure project the Linux Foundation should be supporting.
It’s easy once you realize that it’s talking about the river – the water flows from uphill to downhill. Quebec is downhill of Ontario.
I don’t think fishing was the activity that the game was missing. But sure, why not haha 😂
Create a TV Tropes page for it and it’ll live forever as Canadian Warehouse Sci-Fi.
Could sort of just go through this list and see what fits haha. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_science_fiction_TV_and_radio_shows_produced_in_Canada#Live_action_science_fiction_television_drama_series
