  • Isn't Centralia literally abandoned due to a coal seam fire?

  • Yep, do it.

    (Posted from a Pixel 7 running GrapheneOS)

  • I'm willing to bet that there's video.

    It was never "PP tapes." It was CP tapes.

  • Can confirm. I'm sitting on an Aeron chair I bought used (probably dot-com era surplus) a decade and a half ago, and although I've replaced a torn armrest, the mesh on the seat and back is still in perfect shape. If I'd spent the same amount of money buying something new, it probably would've worn out two or three times over by now.

  • That makes sense, but are the ships in Star Trek actually designed like that? (Or in real life, for that matter: are the medical facilities on, say, a Ford-class aircraft carrier distributed to different parts of the ship?)

    The more I think about it, the more I think it might be more trouble than it's worth compared to centralizing them. It introduces worries about balancing patient load and staffing availability between multiple sites, for instance.

    I think it makes sense on the Enterprise-D because of the saucer separation, but on other big ships that don't have that feature, maybe not so much.

  • At this point I consume most media literally on my computer or my phone, but I still want there to be a good solution for a big living room TV (50"+ range). I have yet to see any reasonable 'computer monitor' option for that.

    The other problem with using a monitor as a TV, BTW, is that they often don't have built-in speakers.

  • Gather a lot of mint, put it in your cave in a pile, and lay down on it before going to sleep for the winter.

  • Bigger ships should have bigger sickbays, though.

    Not that you should be able to tell from a single camera angle.

  • Civil lawsuits aren't pardonable anyway because pardons are for criminal offenses. You can't force him to be charged with a state level criminal offense.

  • Buying the TV and then not connecting it still rewards the bad behavior.

    We have to boycott these fucks and lobby to get the behavior outlawed.

  • This is why, for years, I've been trying to point out that "if you don't like it, just don't buy it" isn't good enough. Boycotts aren't enough; we have to force the law to change to prohibit the abusive corporate behavior.

  • I used to recommend Sceptre, but even they appear to have stopped making dumb TVs now too.

  • That's a good point: it's not just that LLMs fail to give you an optimal password, it's that they're inherently designed to give you a pessimal one.

  • I mean, I LOL'd at the "this data is internally valid in the sense that I am precisely average in all respects, in relation to all the other [zero] people I know of the same sex" part just because it's a clever way of saying it.

  • I just figured it was extra-desperate CPR and never saw a reason to question its legitimacy.

  • Not entirely: you could revert it all the way back to before AI commits were possible, if you really wanted.

  • Never kill yourself for something that's somebody else's fault.

  • Nah, butt-trumpets are normie. You're thinking of the snails!
