And time, hostname, power settings…

If you mean X, that “lives” there deserve some quotes.

Isn’t the enterprise entirely held by those energy fields?

It gets new holes all the time anyway.

I just noticed… He had the solution to that wraith possession all the time, he just refused to use it.

There’s nothing to decide. Wayland is the way of the future, and Enterprise will definitively upgrade to it some time before sd. 48681, as soon as they get some free time to do it!

Yeah, dust is not what you need to care about. But it’s not good to have a printer indoors.

There are enclosed printers that you can plug ventilation ducts that solve this problem. Some have filters, but any filter without a molecular sieve (usually activated coal) won’t help you, because the problem isn’t with dust.

Resin printers also give you problems on handling the resin. It’s not enough to enclose those printers, you need protection equipment and a place to deal with the supplies and recent prints.

Yes, if the reading reaches 0°C the firmware turns off to protect against measurement failures.

There is probably a patch to chamge that temperature.

Enough to make a RAID 6. As few as possible.

A lot of times, they only drink it while on duty. Other times they drink it all the time while on a ship… Somebody probably compiled it, but I don’t think the authors had any unified theory of why people drink it.

But yeah, I remember many people saying it’s only a flavoring agent.

Yes, as long as you accept that the lower-priority tasks get dumped when needed.

This is a common way to deal with it. But the number of managers that know how to decide a task is low-priority is exceedingly small. Most only have top-priority tasks to distribute to people.

If you have somebody doing work that can appear at random (like somebody calling and saying they have a problem), that person will either be free for a fraction of time that seem high to naive people, or will have a line and take ages to help anybody approaching them.

That seemingly high fraction of time is usually around 50% for the line to stay under control. That’s a well known result from mathematics.

Any manager that doesn’t know about the utilization/latency trade-off from queue theory is a danger to themselves and to others.

It’s not like DISCO flaunted around saying “we don’t hate gay people in this ship.”

Well, after DS 9 it would just be repetitive. Also TNG spent a few episodes on this exact point, but it wasn’t a main topic.

But people tend to focus their complains about things being “preachy” when those things put the preach above the story-telling. DISCO absolutely had this flaw in some point or another. Never for very long, though, so it really wasn’t a main characteristic. Anyway, when a show is simply good, almost nobody gets bothered by the preaching.

Well, they falsified their stress readings so they could get out of the dam spa and back to work…

And if I had the kind of great workplace the Federation has on Trek (even more at the LD times), I can see myself doing similar things perfectly well. Hell, I’m on vacation right now, trying to add motors to a trimming platform so I’ll have a micrometer positioning device…

It means “killing a group of inter-related X”, where people naturally fills the X with “people”.

Killing a group of animals isn’t referred to as genocide.

Not usually. But it’s perfectly within the meaning of the term, and people could easily apply it to whales and primates if somebody decided to practice it.

More practically, it doesn’t apply to killing un-related people at random. It’s specifically applies to targeting people related through some characteristic.

A has been consistently improving it since before the change, so it’s only possible that they are managing to the metric if they had earlier access to it.

B may be doing that, but the graph doesn’t actually measure how many bugs you closed. Those ones seem to have decided to manage by the metric, removing the variance but targeting a high, comfortable level.

Agreed on C, they did a large “hey, we will be measured by that now” one time effort and then forgot about the metric.

The change didn’t improve anybody’s performance.

People, 30 years later, talking like predicted!

https://ourworldindata.org/how-many-species-are-there

TL.DR, there are ~2 million known species of animals. There are probably more of plants, and apparently nobody cares about fungus or other kingdoms of life. So, it’s a big dent, but the number looks even small in a worst-case scenario WW3.

I remember there being around 30,000 animal species threatened by extinction, but I have no idea when or from where I heard that.

Put Federation technology and Federation technology together, and you can watch the fireworks!

I have an impression Worf would have a pretty bad time trying to school Dax on Klingon culture.
