“Sometimes when it’s not him, it’s still him!”

RIP Renee A. I can always hear his delivery of that final line when I read it.

You might try Wayfinder.

It feels like classic World of Warcraft without the grinding for levels or loot.

What’s up with the Rust hate?

The Rust community keeps trying to rewrite key pieces of Linux that aren’t broken.

They probably have the right idea, in the long run, but it’s still fun to give them a hard time about it.

This…might be canon now. There’s a few conversations in Strange New Worlds that feel like the Universal Translator reached its limit of making Vulcans not-rude.

Sorry, I left off the sarcasm tag. I’m not confident that this will help anything.

I think I understand this pitch to be:

“Insider trading isn’t insider trading if it’s done under religious trappings and with an AI in the middle.”

Normally I hate AI news. But if someone is promising an AI that will debate endlessly with the Bible as it’s foundational knowledge…well, I think that could make the world a better place - by wasting the time of people with nothing better to contribute to society than debate about the Bible.

Maybe they can do that in a corner, somewhere, instead of interrupting those who understood the Bible in a single read and are feeding the hungry and caring for windows and orphans.

Asking the real critical question.

Pre-beard, I only give them one episode.

Damn.

Pinkertons on Wikipedia

Wow. Damn.

This is such a perfect use of this meme format.

O’Brien won’t be sharing that secret with anyone. Not even Keiko.

That is pretty sad, but I think she and he were both right to respect the impact she had by staying in the role.

The most iconic science fiction crew of all time will forever include a prominent impressive black woman. Nichelle made that happen, through her performances.

Hey, thanks! You too!

And it was a reliable, proven technology that apparently only got worse and more twitchy a couple of decades later.

I assume the subtext was that it was a reliable proven technology being operated, in his option, by an incompetent idiot too young to be trusted.

Which is as good an explanation as any for the other transporter scene…

I imagine a decent amount of Riker is spread across the atmosphere any time he beams through a storm cloud. I assume Enterprise D has spare Riker bits stores somewhere to fill in any gaps.

Has your dad watched classic trek recently? Its mostly woke.

Or like…ever. haha.

YouTube with a custom app seems to be the best way to actually watch your own chosen subscriptions, rather than bent force fed by the Google algorithm.

I’ve heard folks talk about how to get this from regular YouTube, but it’s wild to me that that put up with having to go to all the trouble with the official app.
