In no way was the original comment even trying to imply anything about women trusting men. So I’m a little confused about this response.
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.

Can’t wait for the flood of people telling us why this isn’t feasible for men to take and insisting that when a SAFE and 100% EFFECTIVE form is ready they’ll surely take it.
Armada and Armada 2.
I really like RTS games.
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.
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.
I just want neat metal ship models without having to pay $100+ for out of production stuff…
Perhaps even one in a bottle.
Companies make absolute fucking bank over “small insignificant” things like this.
Yes it’s only 50¢ but how many people every day think to themselves “oh it’s just 50 cents”
Then add that up over the whole year, for every location.
It quickly becomes much more than the “insignificant” 50¢.
And they know you are more likely to pay it and keep quiet than argue or simply not buy the item.
Sure it’s “just 50 cents” for you, but for the company, by the end of the day it’s more than most make in a year.
Note: actual dollar amounts company-wide for garlic cups is not something I happen to know, but based on how much I’ve seen them slinging cups into the boxes while I wait for my pizza, it’s gotta be a lot.
The last time I used skype, it was to monitor my 3d print because I needed to finish a project and my last attempt went all spaghetti.
So as I was at work I’d log into my computer from my phone, call myself with skype, and check to make sure everything was still okay.
Then I discovered octoprint.
1 the things that have extra holodecks that I’ve seen are just space stations, which can have larger power stations. The ship in insurrection was purpose built to trick people into thinking it was their small village that they don’t leave often. It can have all the power it needs dedicated to the holodeck and be slow with a Son’a escort for protection.
2 with you on that one.
3 also with you on this one. It just makes sense. Two people on opposite sides of the system could have dinner together in a holodeck. Easiest sell in the world after the holodeck itself.
4 the only issue I have with medical areas being holodecks is how often we see power issues in star trek. If they lose power, no med bay, no holo-docs. But if you’re already doing it, I see no reason there can’t be all the holographic doctors you need, and if the entire interior of the ship is filled with holo-emmitters then the EMH isn’t an issue.
For the record, I’m with you. I think by the end of the 2380s they should definitely be having entire swathes of ships dedicated to holographic rooms.
In Voyager, The USS Prometheus had holo-emmitters all over, so the EMH was able to walk around and take the ship back from romulans.
Incidentally I was listening to some Certifiably Ingame ship breakdowns and they touched on a ship that has holographic interiors for a lot of spaces, but since I was falling asleep at the time I am unsure which ship it is. I’m trying to peruse the Playlist to see if anything looks familiar.
Or call robo-rooter. They can help!
I have a picture of my wife posing in the children’s cutout in the back, I jokingly asked if she wanted a picture with it and she got excited and ran over to pose.
I mean, we were dating at the time, but one of the first dates I took her on was the Wright pat airforce base museum.
This would absolutely have worked on me when I was younger. You know, if I had enough confidence to talk to women when I went to museums alone…
I do tend to wear blue jackets…
Calling out reposts obsessively is weird to me.There’s more people who have not seen something than who have seen it, at least on the internet. I think most people have seen the moon…
But if I ever have a problem where the vast majority of the posts I see are reposts, I’ll simply block the channel for awhile. It costs me nothing, and takes less effort than typing out a comment complaining in every repost.
It’s the “STOP LIKING WHAT I DON’T LIKE” meme, come to life. And I’d rather let people have their fun. Doesn’t cost me, nor anyone else, a thing.
I love when people say they feel dumb because they didn’t know something, because then I get to share xkcd with them, too.
Every time I hear someone complain about a single tiny piece of plastic on the ground or someone uses slightly more than needed cling wrap, all I can think of is the couple of warehouses I used to work in a couple jobs ago.
Everything comes on pallets wrapped in about a dozen layers of cling wrap. 8-10ft tall pallets.
Every box gets opened, the items pulled out of a large plastic bag, each item wrapped in its own plastic bag.
Those items get put in other boxes, stacked on a different pallet, and wrapped in another dozen layers of plastic wrap.
The pallets get moved to a temporary spot for a few hours, then someone comes up and curs all the wrap off. Moves the boxes onto 4 other pallets, and each of those goes to a separate forklift driver who puts them on shelves.
When the item leaves, it’s placed in plastic bags, then a box, then goes on a pallet that gers wrapped in a dozen layers of plastic wrap. Onto the truck for shipping elsewhere.
They have a truck that comes twice a day to replace a shipping container filled with plastic.
So much plastic, every day, all day, they only close for Christmas and 4th of July.
Am I still going to use anything but plastic wherever possible? Sure. Am I still going to pick up that piece of plastic and put it in the recycling bin? Absolutely.
Companies suck and will blame you for their shitty treatment just like every abuser does.
In no particular order, I have French, German, Dutch, Scottish, Irish, and a teensy tiny bit of “my great great great great grandmother was native American and we actually have the proof but nobody could ever tell without a DNA test so it only gets brought up when talking about obscure family genetic lineage”
Maybe it’s because my family is super midwest-usa-bible-belt, and I never even found out about most of it until a genetics test when I got married to my now wife (we wanted to know if kids would even be a medical possibility with our various issues), but I don’t identify with any of the places my ancestors lived in, so there isn’t a particular culture I’d like to be part of. And to be perfectly frank I’m not sure I want to be part of any culture, I just want to tend to my forest with fair Goldberry my wife.
You do make a good point though, if you’re looking to be part of something or feel particularly drawn to a culture after being immersed in what you think it’s really like, I could absolutely see this happening with 100% sincerity.
“or should I say us 🇮🇹”
“Sopranos was my favorite show”
Oof. Imagine saying “roots was my favorite show so it makes sense my great great great grandparent was black”
I’d bet it’s not immune to small pellets of lead or steel flying towards it at around 1000fps.
Or a rock.
I’m less accurate with the rock though…
This is one of those articles that would have made me go “WOAH, that’s so cool, the future will be awesome!” like 15 years ago…
Now it just makes me wonder “how long before someone uses it to hunt down their favorite target demographic for arrest/deportation/extermination” for a split second before I remember “if this is what we are seeing as the public, then someone is definitely already doing that”
Can’t wait to see the wapo articles praising the musk drone defense network for flushing out the undesirables from [area] and only having a 20% false positive rate of elimination.
I love the repeated panels, almost like the path is checking to see if anyone looking before it shifts.
Honestly I don’t see why any person would want to force someone else to take hormones as a contraceptive when non-hormonal contraceptives work. And the fact that it’s pill form makes it super easy. Literally not even an inconvenience. Just toss it back in the morning. Boom. Done.
Hormones will fuck you up.
