Yeah, that’d be among the duties of the engineering department.

I misread “hum” as “bum.”

I can’t find it, so I’m retracting the claim.

Martok has a saber bear rug in his room. It’s not dead, you know, just scared like the rest of us.

Martok does not own an oven, stove, or microwave. That’s because revenge is a dish best served cold.

Martok doesn’t go hunting because the “hunting” implies that you might not succeed. Martok goes killing.

Martok can kill two stones with one lotlhmoq.

Martok was once bitten by a venomous mugato. After a month of excruciating pain, the mugato died.

If Martok fought a transporter duplicate of himself, they would both win.

In an average crewman’s quarters there are a hundred objects Martok could use to kill you. That includes the room itself.

Martok has never cheated death. He wins fair and square.

Hmm, maybe I’ve fallen for misinformation.

Edit: I can’t find the thing that initially gave me the impression that David Hogg wasn’t progressive, so I’m removing the “maybe.”

He wants to replace the current group of old, complicit, corrupt neoliberals with young, maybe(?) less complicit and corrupt neoliberals. He does not want to replace them with progressives.

Edit: based on my browser history, I believe I formed the impression reading something in a Lemmy thread about a month ago probably related to this article, but I can’t find it again so I’m just gonna say I must be wrong.

but the discussion is usually not made in good faith

“Everybody who disagrees with me is a troll or a shill.”

Sure, buddy, because Free Software projects run by volunteers famously have huge guerilla marketing budgets. Won’t somebody think of the poor for-profit companies who first got their leg up by taking Free Software code they didn’t write and then subsequently gradually closed and enshittified it? They’re the real victims here.

I feel like a Trekkie collecting those instead of the hourglass ones is like letting Dr. Elsa pick your Holy Grail for you.

“That’s the salt shaker of a low-budget sci-fi show!”

If you go back enough generations, nobody’s family tree branches.

☝️Case in point, LOL.

It isn’t hard at all to say whether Bill Gates is an “overall net ‘good’ person” or not. He became a billionaire (which is an inherently exploitative act), and no amount of trying to whitewash his legacy with philanthropy after the fact can change that.

Ironically, human males do that to impress other males.

Examples:

Correct. Firefox was a rewrite separate from the old Netscape/Mozilla SeaMonkey codebase.

It’s literally not worth the electricity to keep computers that old running. You could replace one with a $5 Raspberry Pi Zero or maybe even a $2 microcontroller and recoup the cost in lower power bills within a month or so.

I’m willing to bet it varied by employee diligence. I think it’s much less likely to be a company policy of not giving out the manuals to renters and more likely to be that they didn’t quit renting the game after somebody failed to return the manual.

GameFAQs etc. need to be archived in a public database and incorporated into stuff like RetroArch.

Somebody made a good point in another thread a while back (or maybe it was The 8-Bit Guy in a youtube video?) that a lot of times the manual got read as you were riding in the car back home from the store since you couldn’t play the thing yet.

Is there a database of scans of old video game manuals somewhere? Seems like something that would be great to add to stuff like RetroArch etc., along side the automatic download of box art and such.

*Get rid of Raspbian and install Raspberry Pi OS

In case you didn’t know, they’re the same thing: “Raspberry Pi OS” is just the newer name for it.

That said, the official instructions for upgrading to a new major version say to re-image your microSD anyway. So never mind; carry on!
