One extra thing a lot of articles haven’t pointed out is that the mod was locked behind a patreon paywall. Sticking mods behind paywalls has been a hot subject (to put it gently) in the community for a while now. Not to rush to the defense of the most profitable franchise in the world, but yeah that’s absolutely gonna get you shut down.
Curious how it’ll perform in real world conditions. Sodium batteries are supposed to have much better charging times and don’t degrade the way lithium batteries do, both of which would be huge. Fingers crossed they live up to expectations.
(Also obligatory “expand and improve public transit damnit!”)
Is this article AI generated? It’s absolutely awful. Ending with youtube-style engagement bait is just embarrassing, you’re the journalist, you should be the one to reach out to a lawyer and get an opinion.
And you may find yourself living in a starship bunk
And you may find yourself in another part of the galaxy
And you may find yourself behind the helm of a large delta flyer
And you may find yourself in a beautiful holodeck, with a beautiful holo-wife
And you may ask yourself, “Well, how did I get here?”
And the answer is pretty simple, it was the caretaker.
I love Lower Decks a lot. You can spot the exact moment the exec who was demanding “make one of them Rick and Morties with this old sci-fi shit we have” left the room and the writers all went “okay so we’re gonna do a very targeted Star Trek comedy now, yeah?”
The DS9 episode was wonderful.
Going off 20+ year old memories so I’ve probably got some stuff wrong, but basically there was an evil guy literally named Hacker (who in my head was voiced by Christopher Lloyd?) who was trying to infect the program lady who was in charge of everything with a virus. The actual episodes were basically just “uh oh Hacker is up to some bullshit, time to stop him in some way that will involve math.”
Smae. Some of it is probably learned from her goofball idiot caretaker, but I’m just gonna say one of us has lost a fight with the ceiling and it wasn’t me.
Edit: this made me realize I’ve never actually tried to fight the ceiling. Hold on gotta test, will report back.
Copy/pasting from when this was posted in a news community:
To be brutally honest, this is fucking peanuts. A jobs training program for a measly 20k people, with nothing to indicate any steps against corporations that are actually responsible for climate change. This should be a slap in the face after (as the article even points out) Biden opened more federal land for drilling.
We need the energy industry to be taken in to public ownership, with direct accountability to the people (not corporate parties), significant investment into climate stabilization and climate change resistant infrastructure, and have workers (who by and large do not want to burn the planet to the ground) take more control over their workplaces. Biden wouldn’t dare threaten corporate profits, so we’re never going to see anything significant from him.
Genuinely struggling to tell if the intended moral is: “women smart men dumb,” “twinks smart jocks dumb,” or “eat slowly or you’ll make yourself sick.”
Honestly the realization that capitalism is the root cause of our current systemic evils, and finding a good organization to fight back against it with did me a world of good mentally. Way better than agonizing over every tiny decision I made because I’d been tricked into thinking that climate change was my individual fault and responsibility to fix.
Peach guest staring in Mortal Kombat 3 was one of the most wild crossovers. The fatality with that chain chomp was gruesome.
SO. I lied. I cheated. I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But the most damning thing of all is that I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again, I would. Garak was right about one thing, a guilty conscience is a small price to pay for the safety of the entire alpha quadrant. So I will learn to live with it. Because I can live with it. I can live with it.
Computer. Erase that entire personal log.
If I had to guess, I’d say it’s because he was drawn by Pen Kenders
The tipoff for me was that no actual graffiti artist is going to write “LOL❗”. That’s out of touch marketer terminology.
He (somehow after drawing that comic) works for Sega and has done a couple things, including helping with the redesign of Sonic for the movie, the intro animation for Sonic Mania, and Sonic Mania Adventures.
This post is a skill check for how terminally online you are.
And I passed. Fuck.
