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 buy RAM sticks

  • I don’t need computers to eat.

    Yet.

  • I want to know more of the breen.

    Jump

  • S3, ep 9 "Trusted Sources"

    The crew of the Cerritos is performing their duties during "Project Swing-by" and upon checking in on the planet of Brekka, who had a drug-dealer like relationship with the Ornarans (TNG s1e22, Symbiosis), discover the population is almost non-existent, and the only lead are the Breen, who ambush the crew and Brekkian civilians.

  • US build-up of warships and fighter jets tracked near Iran

  • The Trump Files (feat. Jeff Epstein)

  • An apartment caught fire yesterday in Queens, New York City. A man died because firefighters couldn't access the fire hydrant. A car is now parked on the same fire hydrant the day after this tragedy

    Jump

  • Last time I was near an apartment fire, the fire department didn't even waste time asking the crowd if anyone could move the car or figuring out if another hydrant was near, they just pulled in, lined the fire engine bumper up with the SUV, and pushed it fully out of the way of the hydrant. Tires all fucked up and one popped on the curb.

    100% deserved. Don't park in front of hydrants.

  • A drone can lift itself only through the power of a solar panel

    Jump

  • I am someone who is interested in rc planes, multirotors, and automation in general. Not an expert by any measure, but have some experience.

    A hybrid quad-rotor/plane would be much better for this. They can VTOL, hover, do all the quadcopter stuff, but there's still the usual plane motors to push the whole thing forward. The wings provide tons of lift and reduce the overall power usage of the system. Have it circle above an area until you don't need the pop-up mesh network.

    I've seen a few content creators like rctestflight make full solar planes, running ardupilot to fly way point missions and circle around for as long as possible.

    Combining the two might reduce the overall efficiency when compared to either separately, I imagine the extra grams from the mesh radios would still allow for very long flight times.

    So theoretically you should be able to toss a couple out that can circle overhead and act as super long line-of-sight relays and provide coverage over a huge area, all of which couod be deployed and packed up in minutes.

  • Is there a way to make money as someone with autism?

    Jump

  • Whether you're right or not is irrelevant if nobody listens to you because of your tone.

  • WTF

    Jump

  • For my regular headphones, not much. I can use the buttons on them to cycle through sound modes (no modification, sound canceling, and external mics) as well as the normal things like switch volumes, tracks etc.

    Once I got the update, I deleted the app and got an older one. If they make it mandatory somehow, I'll just not use the app and get different brand headphones when these break.

  • WTF

    Jump

  • I use apkmirror to get old versions of apps

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

  • Ooh nice. I've got the DVD set and I've been meaning to pull them onto my media drive for several months now....

  • Limited government shutdown likely to linger for at least 10 days as Congress takes break

    Jump

  • No, they mean department of defense.

    The president and his cabinet don't arbitrarily decide names. There are actual procedures to go about doing so.

    Alternatively if you feel like it doesn't matter since theyre all going along with it, I feel like the DOD and Gulf of Mexico are two of the very few entities it's okay to deadname, along with Twitter.

  • Ukraine wants 20-year US security guarantee to sign peace deal

    Jump

  • it was a guarantee to:

     
            respect Ukraine’s territory (which Russia vialoted, the US didn’t)

    bring any violations to the UN security council (which was done, but with Russia having veto power, useless)

    Most people I speak to have the impression that any attack on Ukraine meant the US would jump into full scale war mode to defend them. Honestly I wish it were. At least then it would have been harder for the Biden administration to essentially ignore.

    "here's a bunch of old equipment, good luck buddy" was technically more than required, but grossly inadequate.

  • Ukraine wants 20-year US security guarantee to sign peace deal

    Jump

  • As an American in my 30s...

    Just don't trust anything the US says, period.

    Who knows if our 4-year mood/tantrum cycle will honor the deal in 15 years, let alone 5.

  • Always a good idea. You never know when surprise wish twists will show up.

  • Anker?

    I noticed their soundcore app did that last time I connected to wifi and it auto-updated... Inimmediately went looking for an old apk.

  • I imagined it more like "the show is now your real life" but definitely didn't specify "not becoming an actor to play a part" but yeah.

    Iwas envisioning something like Firefly, the Expanse (but less dangerous) or literally any game where the plot involves you being on a small cargo-capable ship with light guns and tons of questionable illegal mods.

    Let's be honest, I was picturing the Millennium Falcon...

  • He should have wished to be the protagonist in his very own sci-fi space show set on a "light freighter" style of ship.

    Then you're guaranteed at least two romance options (four, if you swing more than one way), your own ship, and plot armor.

  • Take it from me, you don't want to go down the "eugenics" road...

  • Homeland Security has reportedly sent out hundreds of subpoenas to identify ICE critics online

    Jump

  • I really don’t like ice. It’s cold, slippery and wet.

    And it gets everywhere.

    Just like the shitty US fascist police...

  • Anyone else got this?

    Jump

  • As I said to someone recently, it is illegal to smash a brick into the heads of every corrupt fascist ICE thug going around committing endless acts of domestic terrorism. It is still morally correct to do so.

    Illegal≠immoral/bad/wrong, legal≠moral/good/right.
