He doesnt want to be minority leader because then he would have to persecute himself and try to prevent himself from voting.

The Fetterfolk are multiplying. They seem to be an invasive species.

Planet 9 or Plan 9?

The problem with Strange New Worlds to me is the budget and the number of episodes.

Budget, too high. Number of episodes, too low.

Every star trek has their stinky episodes but when you only have 10 episodes per season, 3 stinky episodes is a 30% stinky show.

Also, the budget being so high allows writers to take a siesta and let the effects team take over for a bunch of oooh ahhh laser spectacles. I have that complaint for the end of Deep Space Nine and Enterprise too. In TNG and TOS era, they had less budget and ability to do effects so the writing had to be excellent since most of the show was people standing on the bridge and talking or sitting around a table and talking.

So Paramount/WB, spend less money, spend all you have on writers and makeup and try a new star trek set directly post-undiscovered-country. Follow a Klingon ship that is pissed about their government being dishonorable and wants to forge their own way. Start the show with the attack on Khitomer. Game of thrones-lite Klingon-Romulan-Federation political intrigue. Cameos of the occasional TNG character at Starfleet academy or whatever. Enjoy the billion dollars WB/Paramount. Not that youll need it as one of the 3 remaining media conglomerates left.

People still watch sports. And Fox sports is still a major thing.

Wow!

Almost as useful as Windows 10 now.

There’s no magic answer. My best advice having wasted half my life trying to accomplish what seemed like a “good life” I ended up nearly broke and divorced with almost nothing but suffering to show for my time.

Now I pursue what makes me happy and only try to be as successful as I need to be so that I can keep doing what makes me happy. One day I’ll be dead, and then whatever pile of shit I accumulated will be unceremoniously thrown in the trash by a distant relative. But if I can build something or help someone, then that’s what I feel like doing with my time. Its not hedonism but its sort of a disengage ment from the rat race. Im not trying to get rich or gain power, I’m trying to relax and enjoy my life and help people while I can.

People probably say that about asbestos too.

You can tell by the way I use my wand, Im a woman-man no automaton.

Stayin Alive circa 2001 on my crappy boombox .

We never played that way in my circles but when I would play with 2 people reverse basically did nothing so we would start with 9 cards and reverse would do the same thing as a skip.

Fedora baybee!

Maximum hardware enablement,

Minimum game breaking bugs.

New Kernals all the time.

Community focused distro with no corporate interference

I can watch all of my “Linux Isos” I torrented out of the box

Logo is cool infinity F.

I had one of these circa 2003 or 2004. It had the form factor of a giant SNES controller and th screen flipped up out of the middle.

I want to say that mine only claimed 99 games.

Do it, raise the average IQ of Democrats and Republicans.

This is pretty neat. If they can keep up with updatea this could be a pretty nice alternative to fedora workstation.

Blu ray discs cost pennies to manufacture, especially at scale.

Also, Sony owns the blu ray IP.

Also also, if they gave a fuck they could just ship 2 discs in a box. Like they did at the tail end of the xbox 360 days.

They’d just rather not deal with it anymore.

I agree from the standpoint of research for research sake is still worth doing but anyone telling you that they have a working quantum computer that is just around the corner from working is most likely grifting.

The actual data at this point.

It sounds crazy in 2026 but check your local library.

He got it because it was the fastsest car in the world at the time and he wanted the “best” regardless of anything else.

Say what you want about Cleveland but they have an awesome newpaper.

This is probably what you saw, in case anyone else is curious.
