Yeah, but how many other planets have you been to? You need something to compare it to.

Here’s a couple of Enterprise behind-the-scenes photos.

When you direct a TNG episode but you’re also in the episode, you don’t take the makeup off.

And his fans don’t even remember or care if they do.

I wouldn’t say no hope. I would say very little hope.

None of that would do anything to punish corporations like they deserve. That would require congress passing laws and SCOTUS not shooting them down, two things I hold very little hope for in the current climate.

Sure. Re-elect Joe Biden.

[Rant] A few days ago, I asked if Mint would run okay on a Lenovo T460 (I appreciate all the advice). I got it working, but the installation was a big pain and I totally blame Lenovo.

I got the T460 refurbished and I really didn’t want to run Windows 10 on it. I last used Linux for any real length of time a good 20 years ago, so I’m pretty inexperienced with it at this point and I had to figure out how to install it myself....

I didn’t even want to take a chance with an HP considering how fucked up their printers are.

how did you expect it to run Linux?

Because I asked in this community and got a bunch of people who said they ran Linux on it and it worked just fine? Which it does now that it’s been installed.

I’ll try Ventoy next time, thanks. I just followed the install instructions on Mint’s website which says to use Etcher. Maybe that’s the problem.

I’m surprised HP notebooks are trustworthy at this point.

Admittedly, I’ve only been able to play with it on and off today, but I am really liking it so far (except Firefox, which apparently no longer has a compact mode). I’ve had to use Macs for years for work reasons, but I don’t have to anymore and I said to myself that when my ancient Macbook died, I would replace it with something that runs Linux. MacOS is okay, not terrific (I hate how much RAM it uses though). I don’t mind using it, but I am not going to pay Apple’s prices now that I don’t have to just because it’s less annoying than Windows. So Linux is the perfect answer!

Pretty much from what I can tell.

SpaceX allegedly fostered serial sexual abuse, according to this lawsuit (www.theverge.com)

A SpaceX employee says that she spent seven years working at the company’s headquarters in Hawthorne, California enduring sexual abuse, unequal pay, discrimination, sexual harassment, and retaliation, in a new lawsuit against the company. But her story paints a much graver picture than those individual words can convey,...

So… she chose to have a child with someone?

What… the… fuck.

How about instead of pivoting and moving goalposts, you admit you were wrong and move on with your life?

Sure, as soon as you read the document that her lawyers filed and realize why the first thing I quoted above was such an incredibly fucked up thing to say.

Why on Earth you think the very basic details of this lawsuit are irrelevant, I do not understand.

I don’t have any alts. Don’t make up lies about me.
