- Comment on Why do they turn Federation into a dystopia? 3 days ago:
I mean, that point about seperating a mother and child, kind of forms the entire basis of the show as its what drive Captain Ake to come head the new Starfleet Academy. She feels like complete shit that it happened and wants Starfleet to be better in its rebirth.
And technically, Academy IS a “dystpian setting” because they had the galaxy wide apocalypse event that was The Burn that obliterated every warp drive and collapsed everything but it sounds like you didn’t watch Discovery so you may have missed that.

Nice, I will have to make a point of trying to go back again. I love going to Zoos and Brookfield is one of the best one I have been too, though the St Louis Zoo is probably the best from the maybe a dozen or so I have seen.

Is it new? I have not been in like ten years but I don’t remeber that giant statue.
- Comment on 5 days ago:
Yeah, I worry about my Claude projects, that do simple tasks, that only I use, generally inside my home network where no one can exploit it not that anyone would want to.
Meanwhile, these huge companies are writing 50-100% of their shipping products used by millions in some cases.

Can we then use that electricity to power a boiler?

- Comment on Anon time travels 3 weeks ago:
Thats because last quarter profits were up 10% and now this quarter they MUST be up 11% or the company is a complete failure and all the shareholders will go elsewhere. But don’t cut too much, the following quarter it better be up 12%!

- Comment on Anon tries to understand credit scores 1 month ago:
Yes, but why is this game even required?
- Comment on Anon tries to understand credit scores 1 month ago:
They are right, its a trap.
If the system were set up in a way that you could actually get to the point where those “big things” were not always required, on an individual basis, it wpuld not be.
But that isn’t the world we live in. We live in one where everything needs to keep raising in cost until there is nonescape from the debt requirement for anyone. And the squeeze will happen until everyone becomes a part of the trap.

It used to be, butnthse days the average person can barely afford groceries without a loan.

Piss filter.

Also, for many of these people, do not underestimate the underlying religous issue. In the case of vaccines, its becomes some sort of “mark of the beast” nonsense. See also the dumb “microchips in the vaccines” stupidity.
- Comment on Chasing the Elephant 2 months ago:
I am.pretty sure the only “cause” is that society has become more open and accepting in general so people who have these various “new issues” that idiots like to boogeyman over are just, not supressing themselves as much or you know, suiciding over society treating them like shit as much.
- Comment on sushi delivery 3 months ago:
I did this once. I didn’t realize it was sushi though.
I was outnof town, training for work. My meals were paid. I decided "That tuna is $20, but I am not paying it so why not.
It was raw.
So I cooked it in the hotel room.
- Comment on Republican? Democrat? There is a third option: 3 months ago:
Nobody gives a shit about the endless holy land war. It sucks that people are dying, but they have basically always been dying because everyone thinks their stupid Sky Daddy Book is the best.
Killing the US over this stupid bull shit is honestly, worse than killing it over the GOP’s shitty policies.
- Comment on What even is money at this point 4 months ago:
Thats likely too. I will say, as someone who works in telcom, the whole Geofenced ads and cpupons idea was something being pitched like, 10+ years ago. I don’t know if it ever panned out, but it was pushed. The other part was getting say, your Lowes app to ping you with a 5% off coupon for that thing you have been standing in front of pondering for ten minutes.

I enjoyed FH5, but FH4 was better. 5 is the onky one I don’t actually own yet, I basically did everything at launch during a Gamepass trial. I plaued FH4 almost daily for like a year or more.

FH5 came out in 2021.

When I worked there in the late 90s, a Big Mac MEAL was 3.14 after tax.
I worked in Drivethrough checkout a lot and a lot of those prices are burned into my mind, half the time I was not near the register when taking orders and giving totals when it was slow.

Pluto was reclassified as a dwarf planet due to not clearing its orbital path.
Why would they just lie about Pluto like that?
