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.

  • ... VALAK?

  • ‘Tiny Tiny Homes’ in a Toronto park are housing people experiencing homelessness. A resident group wants them gone.
  • No, they just want to hide the "undesirables" under someone else's rug.

    Ultinately they don't care if that "rug" ends up being "prison"

  • ‘Tiny Tiny Homes’ in a Toronto park are housing people experiencing homelessness. A resident group wants them gone.
  • I've started asking people "do you have any independently verified statistics to back that up?" and when they start justifying why the answer is no or trying to say anything other than "yes and here they are" I just hit the with "So no, then. The answer is 'no I don't have anything that backs up what I'm saying in reality'" and usually that shuts them up because they don't rant to talk to me anymore. Which is fine by me. It's usually in-laws.

  • Underworld (2003-2016) - I unironically love this series
  • I love the first one. It's great. Sets up so much possibility that you get to imagine: how did vampires and werewolves behave and hide throughout time, how do they plan on staying hidden without dying out, what's next after the hybrids.... The action is perfect, the fights are fast paced but easily followed. The romantic bits feel a bit forced but not off-puttingly so, more just unnecessary I feel but I'm sure plenty enjoy it.

    The sequels are fun, too. I generally don't watch them after I finish the first one. Just not my favorites. Same thing with John Wick.

  • Is This How Reddit Ends?
  • NTA hit the sister delete the kids and wedding up

    Spot on, my wife likes listening to those stories read by that annoying Ai voice.

  • cough cough bish rule
  • I'm sure plenty of nazis were afraid of losing their jobs. In the end, they "just followed orders".

  • U.S. President Trump wants more drilling, but the oil market is already saturated with hundreds of idle oil leases sitting untapped in the Gulf of Mexico
  • it sure seems like they’re colluding to restrict the amount of oil in the market

    Um....

    Yes? 100% always has been, they literally have meetings and what is essentially a corporate union specifically to do it. And they're not subtle about it.

    Is this really news to some people?

  • What a creative sink, but didn't you forget a little detail
  • The first elementary school I went to was built in the 1930s and had two of these in every bathroom. Never had to wait to wash my hands.

    Granted, I never had to wait in highschool either but that's because teenagers are nasty.

  • Survey finds UK households overwhelmingly satisfied with newly installed heat pumps
  • But... But.... I've been assured by many old people that heat pumps are super inefficient, waste tons of electricity, and only work about 10 degrees from outside temps!

    Surely these people wouldn't have lied or misrepresented the facts in order to support their own warped worldviews where renewable energy and efficiency measures are evil and Jesus wants them to shoot up power substations near solar projects...

    .... I really need to move out of the Bible belt...

  • whats happening here
  • ".... Aren't you the engine core from Event Horizon?"

  • So much for the tolerant left
  • Every time I hear or read that phrase, all I can think is "BITCH I NEVER SAID I WAS TOLERANT OF YOUR SHIT"

  • Found this picture of my rig while going thru my photos. I wish it was summer already..
  • Yes, it's duct tape.

    You say that like duct tape isn't in all of our houses, just waiting to be useful in one of ten thousand ways.

    Here it's adding color contrast, presumably in a way the rider likes, and it makes cleaning up easier while also giving some minor protection against light scratching.

    10/10

    I can't wait to take my ebike out. My wife and I managed to get a couple suburb rides in while my truck was busted, but then it got too cold for her and too snowy for me, but once it's warm and dry enough we are heading to the nearest trail.

  • USA | CDC ordered to stop working with WHO immediately, upending expectations of an extended withdrawal
  • You know, it would be real cool if everyone just decided to ignore him and keep cooperating with the world.

  • Doom: The Dark Ages won't have multiplayer, but will have the "most expansive, most epic campaign ever"
  • I have noticed that I get less motion sick in some games on my new 240hz screen, but unfortunately I still get it.

    That said, I'm unsure what my actual fps is in Doom/E but I'd wager somewhere around 100.

  • Doom: The Dark Ages won't have multiplayer, but will have the "most expansive, most epic campaign ever"
  • Checking FOV and disabling motion blur, chromatic abberation, and DoF are my first things before I even start a new game.

    I just assume it's because I'm getting older, and I'm not sitting in a proper chair most of the time.

  • Displaced Gazans mass at Israeli barrier waiting to reach north
  • How long before Israel declares it a hamas outpost and bombs the shit out of it?

  • Inventing is hard work. Not for us!
