I wonder what the ratio of what they get will be between legitimate intelligence versus counterintelligence from the Chinese government.

It took a plague to get him out of office the first time, let’s not push the issue.

Voyager was blindingly bright compared to Picard. “It was cool on Voyager when we turned off the lights for Red Alert. What if we left the lights off all of the time?”

They claim they’ve done simulations and 14” of crumple material is all you need if you don’t have an engine block in front of you. They’re still in the preproduction stage and haven’t gotten to physical crash tests yet.

Telo is going in that direction if it’s something you’re interested in.

There’s so much more profit to be made if you exploit the environment, and the oligarchs plan on the consequences not catching up to them before they die of old age. (At least, not any consequences they can’t buy their way out of.)

I kind of cringe at suggesting this, but Genshin Impact is if Breath of the Wild used a gatcha payment model instead of $60 up front.

The mother of rival Commander Cellar?

If you think you’re on the borderline between the local equivalents of M and T, and are willing to revise your content to get a more marketable rating, maybe you submit early? I know that’s a thing for movies in the US, as PG-13 movies can attract a broader audience than R. If the ratings board isn’t looking at the final product, though, can they rate it correctly?

C and C++ ask the programmer to deal with things themselves that other more modern languages do for you in the language runtime Memory management would be the big one. It’s more to wrap your head around, but if you can do it, there’s potential for more performance. In my mind, it comes down to a trade off between development time versus CPU time, and CPU time is a lot cheaper these days.

That bridge? Reached & crossed.

A happy day for Sassy, a sad day for everyone else.

It has been exposed to 336 hours of continuous unfiltered sunlight each lunar day for the past 40+ years. That’s can’t be good for the plastic. The poo is probably dedicated, but I don’t think it’d be fossilized, in the sense of biological material replaced with stone, I don’t think the moon is geologically active enough for that to happen.

It’s also something we left on the moon. Bags and bags of it, along with empty food containers and their moonwalking backpacks. It’s not like it’s worth it to haul it back to orbit.

Hardspace: Shipbreaker has you tearing old spaceships apart for salvage. A lot of it is sorting your space recyclables, but towards the end of story mode

In 1998, Rod Stewart recorded a cover of the Star Trek: Enterprise theme three years before the series premiere.

Dazzle paint. Everything old is new again.

Nah, that’s now a cooling pond for a data center.

Armin Shimerman played a Ferengi in their first TNG episode. He felt his responsibility on DS9 was to redeem them from that performance.
