Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
If the state decides to ignore any kind of court telling them otherwise, then I would imagine Florida would no longer have flyovers from any airline, and any aircraft capable of producing a contrail or wingtip vortex would no longer operate in the state.
Goodbye florida airports, I guess.
Well, I know what other video I’m never watching.
And people wonder why I don’t like being around any vehicle that carries things…
If it’s what I’m thinking of, camera footage of a vehicle interior.
Driving down the highway, going under an overpass when a brick gets tossed by some kids and goes through the window.
Passenger hit, husband is driving and screams.
You know that scream they mention in The Princess Bride? That “only someone experiencing ultimate suffering” can make?
If you know, you know.
In fact, I’d wager that they accomplish the opposite of what they claim. How many people see their reaction to mods, and decide “nah I’m not buying anything from them”
I know I do that. I’m sure others do too. So now rather than buying the game to mod, I’m avoiding anything from the company for quite some time.
I tried being a moderator on a forum once, and after alerting admins and the FBI about csam less than a week in, I decided I was done being a moderator.
It was a forum for RC stuff, mostly diy rc planes.
Unfortunately, therapy only helps you cope, it doesn’t let you forget.
I’ve had more conversations than I can count with people I would never be able to talk to in person, all using our own native languages.
The original posts are in English, people comment in their native language, and I use a translator, then respond in my own language. Is the translator perfect? No! Neither is theirs.
With the way most translators I’ve used work, it’s easier for the non-native speaker to try translating, since the translator might try and use different words that entirely change the meaning, but likely list possible alternatives. A native e speaker will understand the alternatives while a non-native speaker probably won’t.
That’s my thought process anyway.
Never had anyone who wasn’t pearl-clutching or virtue-signaling complain about it. And I’ve had tons of conversations with people I’d never have talked to otherwise.
Nothing says “we are a free and open community that welcomes others” like moderators banning discussion of poor moderation.
Yes, I do understand what the rule is there for. No that doesn’t make it any less hilariously shitty.
Armada and Armada 2.
I really like RTS games.
Lower Decks has become a comfort show for me and as soon as I finish it, I want to start over.
I mean, that should be the default for everyone, at all times regardless of whether they want to charge you for access. It’s a garbage company run by garbage people and has done more harm to humanity than could ever be measured.
Never ask a man his salary, a woman her age, or a transporter chief what’s in the pattern buffer.
Hi, gender is a spectrum and while I fully identify as male and straight*, I had long hair as a child. If my school had tried to cut my hair by force, I would have absolutely thrown hands, and I was not a small child. Apparently I pushed a teacher into a wall as a first grader but I have no memory of doing so.
Hair is not “gender conforming” unless you’re the most vanilla, thinks-flour-is-spicy, “mayonnaise has too much flavor” basic bitch in the universe. If you really think hair has two genders “long and short” then you are just the saddest sack of shit.
Hair is whatever the fuck you want it to be. I decided I didn’t want long hair anymore, so I started getting it cut short. I even had it around 1/4in at one point just because of how easy it was to be done with. Now it’s long because before I got married, my now-wife said she liked when it was longer, so I’m growing it out again until we decide it’s long enough or I get tired of it again. If I wanted to shave most of it right now, I can do that. Nobody controls my hair but me, and nobody has any say in how I keep it, short of safety concerns. (protip: hair ties and a hair net when working with rotary tools, once you’ve seen a video you never want it to happen to you)
Get the fuck out of here with this weak ass bullshit policing children’s hair.
They won’t be happy until everyone is a straight white silent and obedient clone of each other.
*It’s a spectrum, sometimes I want to feel pretty so if you had to stick me in a hole I’d say I’m straight but I’m sure someone could make a convincing argument that I’m at least a little fluid.
People in these comments act like the computer will just stop working.
Oh look, another person intentionally conflating ANTI-ISRAEL with ANTISEMITIC
They are not the same, and if you think they are then you might wanna check on your racist thoughts. Not all jews are Israeli, and not all Israelis are Jewish. The only ones who benefit from you thinking this is the Israeli government that uses this to shield themselves from criticism of their genocidal war crimes.
O’Neill, blowing up a fleet:
Carter, blowing up a sun:
McKay blowing up 4/5 of a solar system:
Mckay, almost blowing up an entire alternate parallel reality:
Mckay and Carter, using nanites:
All of them, doing all of this whenever they feel like:
“Those torpedoes are cute. Got any naquadria?”
Kevin Uxbridge:
I just want neat metal ship models without having to pay $100+ for out of production stuff…
Perhaps even one in a bottle.
From my understanding, though I can’t pinpoint why I think this, it’s “ship #1 orient based however they feel like, any follow up ships orient accordingly to ships already in-system”
Had that happen on Amazon and ebay multiple times
I always tell them I’ll only increase it one star and the reason for the change will be the first thing anyone sees in the review, even above the original review.
So far I’ve only had one taker.
I’ll die on this hill.
Janeway made the practical call, the one that maximized survival for the entire crew.
As one entity on a starship with limited manpower and no resupply guaranteed, they need all the people they can get.
Yes, neelix and kess weren’t going to be on board originally. That is irrelevant at the time of his Tuvixation. He’s there, and they can’t afford to lose him, regardless of how atrocious his leeola root stew is.
Not to mention that tuvok played a very important role for Janeway, one that I don’t believe tuvix could handle. He was the one who reminded her of the “proper” thing to do that follows protocol. He’s the cool head. The logical one who remains calm when everyone else loses their shit. Chakotay isn’t on that level. Tuvix was too emotional.
Janeway made the right call.
That’s why I specified or wingtip vortex.
In some situations you can see a trail behind a wingtip that can persist. although doesn’t leave the huge vapor cloud that lingers for hours, I have heard plenty of
peopleconspiracy nuts refer to them as “Chem trails” right along with the actual contrail. Living near an airport, you get all kinds of crazy.
