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.
Who doesn’t?
I go a bit farther than most people and bring disinfecting wipes to wipe down before and after I use the machine. After seeing a gym employee pour half of one cleaning spray bottle into another and fill them both with water from the drink fountain, I decided I didn’t trust gyms to have proper cleaning supplies.
By the time I die I will probably have spent a full gym’s worth of equipment in wipes, but for now I still can’t afford a home gym outside a couple free weights.
You have to follow up any looks or double takes with something exra.
“Oh don’t worry. That’s for after.” wiggles eyebrows
THIS! RIGHT HERE!
When I was young and naive about digital things, I had NO BACKUP
One day I got a new laptop. Yay me. Transfer all the data from my old hard drive using some jank-ass local network setup because young and dumb about tech still.
Six months go by, and my new laptop shit itself. Still no idea what happened, but it BSODd and a factory reset got it working again.
I still had my old laptop, so after about a week of searching on forums and reading everything I could find about how to build a pc, how laptop internals compare, data transfers, and literally anything I could so I could pull the old hard drive out without damaging anything and get at least some of my data without issue…
I lost 6 months of new stuff on a much more capable laptop, but it’s better than losing EVERYTHING.
I can hate both.
The CEO just lets me add a face to the ire.
The same kind of person who shares this as if it’s some sort of condemnation see absolutely no problem sitting on the couch, pounding down 15 beers a night, and scream at their wife and kids
You joke, buuuuuuut https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/12/launch-code-for-us-nukes-was-00000000-for-20-years/
The USAF has denied this, multiple times.
I do not believe them.
Mainly because I know how people were during the cold war and have no doubt in my mind that the thought process was “nobody will ever access this without a reason, so let’s make it super quick and easy or we might be radioactive slag before we finish typing”
The mere fact that it’s believable is a problem.
Thanks to how history is being recorded, there’s no chance that he will be forgotten until civilization collapses.
I wouldn’t want history to actually forget any shitty person (or good person) because that makes it way easier for someone with similar ideals to take power again.
It’s more the sentiment.
I have a metaphorical bucket of piss just for Margaret Thatcher. 26+6=1
Life is one endless torment after another, soooooooo…
I can’t wait until Mccarthy has his final death and nobody remembers him anymore…

Ah, an optimist!
When people start seeing huge rises in their electric bill, don’t be surprised to see normal everyday people trying to burn down datacenters.

I’ve checked the logs myself, there’s no anomalous readings from the pattern buffers. Shhhhhhh
how much he feels like placating my catholic mom lol
Please tell me she has, at least once, made a reference to “your people killing my savior”
I know an ethnically jewish/religious catholic couple that do this every time they get into an argument and realize it’s stupid to argue about, one of them will go “WELL YOU KILLED MY GOD!” and that’s basically the end of the argument because they’re too busy giggling.
Exterior: El Sleezo Cafe. Man in a coat is being tossed out onto the street.
A green frog sees this, and suggests the man complains to the owner of the establishment.
The man then says to the frog “I AM the owner.”

Yeah it could definitely be a little clearer with it’s phraseology.
Lol imagine being beholden to constant internet or having to pay for your music…
Two rules:
1: two is one, one is none.
B- always have a spare.
Anything you consider absolutely essential for something, you should have 3 on hand.
Here’s the one that convinced my dad that connecting everything is bad:
Your smart fridge knows what’s inside and knows you just added a 12 pack of soda and donuts to the shopping list. They sell that data to a bunch of companies, including your insurance company. They know you have diabetes.
Your insurance rates just went up for the fifth time this year because your insurance company knows what you’re eating.
And it’s a good thing you don’t drink beer or your car insurance would have gone up ‘due to increased risk factors.’ too bad you wanted to buy a new car this year.
Not only can you not afford it now, the price went up because they know you want a car. I’m sure they would make a payment deal with you though.
And every company will know all about the deal, the beer, the donuts, and all it took was sending money to whatever company had the information, and they were more than happy to sell it.
The more we allow companies to freely operate like this without regulation and without proper punishment for breaking the rules, we will continue sliding toward the hellscape of Ferenginar. For the non trekkies, it’s a hyper-capitalist species of profit-driven assholes.
And since this is the world we live in, most people proceed with that understanding.
This was not the case in 2007.
That could come later.
For now it just means reassigned to a desk somewhere not too far from MPs.
My 4 month old laptop has hdmi on the back, ethernet on the left, four usb 3.whatever slots with two on each side, two USB c slots on the right side, and a microsd slot.
I think it even has a 3.5mm headset jack but I’d have to get out of bed to check. I don’t have any peripherals that use 3.5mm anymore though so it’s just a nice little bonus.
