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.
I propose taking that 1k, measuring against the average income of anyone who makes under 1M, and use that percentage of cost of living to fine the company appropriately.
Example: 1k fine for someone who makes 10k/yr, that 1k is 10% of their yearly income, whereas a company that makes 10,000,000,000/yr, that’s only 0.0001%
When it’s time for money: COMPANIES ARE PEOPLE TOO!
When it’s time for punishment: but you can’t hold a company responsible, it’s not just one person.
There absolutely are movies I would go to see in theaters again.
Wedding crashers isn’t even on the list.
Wedding crashers isn’t even on the list of movies I would watch this month if I had no internet access and only 3 other dvds.
You ask a bunch of questions about a task in order to convince the client that the task doesn’t need to be done at all.
I ask a bunch of questions because I’ve forgotten half the answers already and am trying to make enough stick that I can make something close enough they don’t notice my attention is wandering while they blather.
We are not the same.
Respect pronouns and respect who people are, or you just might find yourself in a pattern buffer visiting Bajor. 
I love seeing the “FRENCH GOVERNMENT COLLAPSES” headlines.
Like… A governmental collapse and this gestures broadly at France are two VERY different things.
And if I’m being honest, when I first saw the headline I wondered if they floated raising the retirement age again and got rioted into a burned down parliament.
France will be okay, they have protocols for this sort of thing.
… Right? I don’t know nearly as much about the current French government as I do pre-napoleonic France. Am dum American.
Weird, I was literally just thinking about FLoB last week, and meant to see if he ever got there.
My wife asked what I was doing, so that side tracked me into explaining the Far Lands, and we ended up playing Minecraft for the night.
I honestly expected it to take WAY longer to get there.
I used to play black ops 1 a shitload. I was fresh out of highschool and it was my first online game after getting internet. I already liked FPS games and this was interactive FPS with actual skilled people instead of shitty bullet sponge bots.
As for why people love them so much now? I have no idea. I’m sure I also wouldn’t have cared for them if I had played online games earlier in life.
I’d much rather have a compelling story nowadays.
Damn, that’s the same bass-ackwards logic that record companies use to say piracy makes them lose money.
Spoiler alert: the majority of people pirating your stuff would not have otherwise purchased it. You have lost nothing.
Similarly, the majority of people using gamepass to play the game would absolutely not have bought the game, especially since it’s the same game as last time, with new names and skins.
For instance: the last call of duty game I bought was MW3. I only played black ops 2 when someone got two copies for their birthday and gave one to me I only remember playing for the zombies. I have played a total of less than 30 minutes, from startup screen to shutdown, of all the call of duties since then. Absolutely no chance in hell I’d buy another one. But I’m sure Microsoft would have included me trying it out as a potential lost sale of every one of them.
If I recall correctly, it’s the hypothesis that photons lose energy as they move through the universe, and that’s why more distant objects shift red.
It’s “Jesus take the WHEEL” not “Jesus take the YOKE”
BiHnuch, please
Their ashes will pave the road to Gre’thor. The cowardly and the damned will tread upon them for an eternity of suffering.
You’d think, but she was paranoid that the tiniest mote of dust would cause the computer to break.
you cannot seriously be proposing that we relax fire code for rentals.
Sorry to butt-in on this exchange, but I did not see anywhere they proposed such a thing?
I’ve been homeless and I’ve gotta say, fire codes are worth the toilet paper they’re printed on when it’s getting cold out, and you’ve been through 6 days of constant rain.
Someone who wants to make super sure that no dust gets into the discs, as even a single mote of dust in the drive will set off a chain reaction that destroys every universe simultaneously.
At least, according to my mother. She always insisted that floppy discs be stored like this since dust could settle in the tab if left the other way.
I miss BosnianBill, it always felt like my grandpa was sharing his hobby with me.
LPL and BB got me into picking locks, and so far it’s saved a couple of massive personal headaches and one extremely expensive piece of industrial equipment (for which I recieved absolutely no recognition in saving the company about $450,000-550,000 in broken equipment)
It’s also a fun quick thing to teach people and I have a spare set with me and an acrylic demonstration lock to show newbies.
I had fun at a park in south-western ohio once when I started picking all the padlocks couples were leaving on a bridge. I left about a dozen of them sitting on top of the railing.
Fun times, cheap hobby.
Why would you do this to me…
How long did it take German tourism to see improvement after WW2?
They said “stupid”, not “evil”
Although I’d argue that any billionaire not actively dumping the bulk of their wealth and influence to sort out world hunger, homelessness, and inequality is being evil.
Lol
Lmao, even
I ain’t buying that shit. I will happily buy two 3d printers, upgrade them, and print a giant coffee table sized version before I spend that much on such a small set.
