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 sent the first news story about the signal chats to my parents ands in-laws in a big group that said “I had better never fucking hear another one of you dumbasses say a word about ‘HeR eEeEeEmAiLs’ ever again”

    Not a single one replied, both parents have (according to my wife) started taking Facebook posts they’ve made in the past down, and my in-laws have not said a political word in over a week. It’s been refreshing.

    They clearly aren’t ready to accept they may have been totally wrong all along, but it’s nice to see they might be self-aware enough to recognize when they might be potentially maybe SOMETIMES be less than correct about specific things.

    You need a microscope to see it, but i consider it a step up.

    Is it considered normal to type out a normal question format when using search engines?

    If I were looking for an answer instead of making a funny meme, I’d search “heat movie cast Angelina Jolie” if I didn’t feel like putting any effort in.

    Then again, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. I’ve seen someone use their phone to search google “what is 87÷167?” instead of doing “87/167” or like… Opening the calculator…

    People do things in different, sometimes weird ways.











  • Any questionable software I have is coming up on 4 years old now, most of it is older than that. I move them to a new machine every time I upgrade, simply because I don’t trust torrents anymore.

    Honestly, I don’t trust PDFs anymore unless they’re from places I know are “safe” which kind of sucks because I’ve been getting back into RC as a hobby and it’s hard to find non-pdf plans. I prefer vector files, but I’m having to try my luck with jpg and png files.

    A lot of the programs I used to use have been surpassed by current FOSS projects, and I’ve been replacing them as I can. Finding an open source laser engraver program that isn’t shit is proving difficult.
